orange sorry about AF turning up. At least you could enjoy your wine guilt free last night.

vegas funny you should say that about ovulating twice. I have just been thinking that about myself a minute ago. The reason is on three seperate occassions over this cycle I have had pains in my left ovary and EWCM!! Then I went to google and some study discovered that woman can ovulate 2/3 times in one cycle and that may the the real reason for twins!! Dam you google for contaminating my brain even more while TTC.

fx for you deafworm

spidookly · 15/04/2011 17:47

BlueCrane did I miss something where your doctor said you weren't pregnant because they line wasn't dark enough on your test?! ShockShock

A line is a line according to my doctor, who is also a relative and totally brilliant. Your doc sounds like a ninny.

Did she ask you to bring used pregnancy tests to an appointment? You know that a line from a BFP can fade entirely after an hour or two?

The result is only valid during the recommended time. It works both ways - BFPs that disappear still count as BFPs and ones that appear too late don't count.

Sorry you're having all this hassle :(

I feel the same way about continued testing post-BFP as I do about early testing - it just creates stress and hassle where you need to be trying to minimise it and enjoy TTC/being pregnant.

I used 2 Boots own for DD1 (had to do 2nd one just to be sure :o), and 1 for DD2.

That's a total combined test tally of 3 pregnancy tests for 2 babies. I've done 0 tests so far this time. There's no need for all this constant weeing on sticks and I'm surprised at a GP for encouraging it and stressing you out over the thickness of the line.

Anyway, I hope you're having a nice weekend enjoying the terrifying and exciting first few weeks after BFP :) :)

orangehead · 15/04/2011 18:01

I agree Spidookly, my first pregnacy I went to the docs fully expecting them to do they own test but he said no need positive is a positive, end of.

BlueCrane · 15/04/2011 18:47

That's all very interesting spidookly I took the tests because I thought they might need to see them for 'proof' of the bfp...she said the lines weren't dark enough and to come back in a week's time with another test and then pretty much showed me the door Shock i was rather upset as you can imagine! Feeling rather stronger now and would really like to go and stick a whole bag full of bfp tests under her nose and remind her that they've all got my urine on at the same time but that would just be far too expensive Grin xstitch I didn't realise about the battery with the digi ones, though it makes sense - thank you for that! TBH I may just go back and see a different doc on Monday and get the whole thing moving as really can't be doing with the silly doc again next week! or I might be able to self refer online so will look into that.

spidookly am v impressed at your testing stats! Also v interested in your comments about post bfp testing...a good perspective!

cookiemonster100 · 15/04/2011 19:16

Hey chicks!
I am out the witch got me early this month. Had to go the docs as i have had pains in my left handside for a few days. We think a cycst might have ruptured. Got a scan on monday the hospital to find out. She also had my blood test results which shows a low level of progestrone whic she says she can give me something (Clomid?).
Good luck with the testing this weekend!!
I will check in later on this weekend to see how you all go fx!!

orangehead · 15/04/2011 19:19

Oh sorry cookie. Hope your scan goes ok. Come and join me on the jan bus

MickyLee · 15/04/2011 19:33

Oh cookie AF came really early for you too :( Good luck with the scan and please keep us posted.

spidookly · 15/04/2011 20:04

Oh no, first orange, now cookie - my down-the-back mates :(

Best of luck cookmeister - let us know how you get on next week.

cookiemonster100 · 15/04/2011 22:44

Hi guys thanks for your messages of support, will post back once I hear. Spidookly & MickyLee fx for the next few days..xx

BlueCrane · 16/04/2011 07:16

Hope all's well with everyone this morning and here's for a good weekend POAS Grin

I tried a digi out this morning and it said 'pregnant' so it's finally starting to sink in now...stupid doctor causing me to doubt the lines! Though I must say seeing it in words is rather more comforting than looking for lines!

cookie sorry to hear about AF Sad Hope all goes well on Monday!

sevendwarves · 16/04/2011 09:20

Sorry cookie, hope your scan goes ok though.

Good luck to everyone else POAS this weekend, hopefully there'll be lots of BFP's.

olismum23 · 16/04/2011 12:50

spidookly · 16/04/2011 14:45

brown goo

a barely perceptible amount when I wiped, but there you go.

Looks like I'm out again.

God I feel like absolute shit.

These last few cycles have been super weird - early AF, brown goo, feeling nauseated before AF.

MickyLee · 16/04/2011 16:06

fx olismum

soory Af is on its way spooks

Nothing to report here. Had cramps in my left ovary all day yesterday though. Half way through 2WW! Roll on next weekend!

Good luck everyone testing tomorrow :)

orangehead · 16/04/2011 18:58

Oh I so sorry spidookly.

cookiemonster100 · 16/04/2011 23:20

No Spidookly cant believe AF got you too. Witch. Hope you feel better soon hun. If you are concerned about your cycles go and see the quack. Cant hurt?
Karbea &olismum - any news?
Xx

sevendwarves · 17/04/2011 09:26

Sorry spidookly

sorry spidookly

good luck to everyone testing this weekend, nothing conclusive either way here, af is now a day late but no bfp's since that one faint line so a bit confused. a bit worried too, i think dd2 has slapped cheek which has a risk of miscarriage, i dont know if im immune so i could do with my body doing something useful to let me know one way or the other so i can stop worrying or get tested. awkward child got chicken pox when i was pregnant with dd3!

MickyLee · 17/04/2011 11:22

Morning all :)

sorry about the BFN vegas but not over until The fat Aunty flow sings. FX for you.

Deaf Hope dd2 gets better soon.

I don't have that pregnancy feeling at all anymore.. I think all the twinges I had could be down to a cyst on my ovary. I can't explain why I keep getting pains in my left ovary and have a heavy feeling in my womb.

The great thing about being in Turkey is that I have to pay for private medical care and it is very cheap so going to see an obstetrician tomorrow to have a check and a scan just to put my mind at rest (if she can fit me in)
