Well I fell off another bus and rather than wait around for the next one I thought I would get another going myself. So have stocked it up with cake, Wine - for the first 2 weeks and Brew - for the 2ww'ers :)

Hoping it will be a lucky bus for lots of us - and I might have a birthday baby :)

Liliana (31) ttc#1 ucl 28 af due 26th March

(I have left out the CD as it is never up to date and all we really want to know is when are people testing!)

Not pregnant - well can't get much clearer than that! Grr where is AF then?

Ah, sorry to hear that Lilliana- are you certain you ov'ed this month. In hindsight last month I don't think I did, and that always seems to result in a much longer cycle for me.

Reallea · 28/06/2011 07:34

Darn, so sorry Liliana, came on early especially to check.

Well done mrscog, if you've had a faint positive you could always go to the doc for a blood test don't forget

Imustbecrazy26 · 28/06/2011 07:51

Congratulation!! I'm now on two week wait but not feeling optimistic!

setara · 28/06/2011 08:43

Congrats skijfox and MrsCog :)

Keep smiling Liliana, i would give it 3 days if its not turned up by then test again

i hate the digital ones because seeing it in writing just seems so final

ShaggingWithIntent · 28/06/2011 09:09

Congrats skijfox and MrsCog!! Amazing results for the March bus so far. Lets hope that this good luck continues (specifically until Friday when I will be POAS!!!)

orangehead · 28/06/2011 09:21

Hi. I was not supposed to be trying this month. But sort of ended up trying. Oh well. Af due sunday.

minipie · 28/06/2011 10:34

Morning all!

A quick question for you all (I've asked this on another thread as well, sorry!)

I'm trying to work out when I can test. My cycle last time was 40 days but then ov sticks show I had LH surge on about CD19 this time so it surely can't be 40 days again. Just come off Pill recently so my body is still making its mind up!

So when do you think I can test... 2 weeks after CD18, or CD40 (which would be about 3 weeks after ov)? .... Sooo impatient.

pommedechocolat · 28/06/2011 11:03

Hi minipie I think a luteal phase is normally max 16 days (do you know luteal phase from other months using opks?). So say you ovulated on cd20 then cd36 is the last possible day af could be due?
I think!
fx for you.

ShaggingWithIntent · 28/06/2011 11:06

hi minipie - are you charting? If so that should tell you when your test date is.......... otherwise, I would go with what Pomme said if you can possibly hold out that long.

minipie · 28/06/2011 11:10

Hi SWI and pomme no I'm not charting, just using OPKs. It's my first month using them so I don't know my luteal phase. pomme that helps, thanks, I will test on CD36 (if I can hold off that long... !). Got some cheapy pg tests so don't mind wasting a couple.

pommedechocolat · 28/06/2011 11:31

Tesco are the best tests imho and not very dear either.

skjifox · 28/06/2011 11:40

Congrats MrsCog :)

I'm going to go and buy a cbdigi to use Friday morning, I might start to believe it then, try again in a few days Liliana hun, you might of just ov'ed later than you thought perhaps?

Liliana1 · 28/06/2011 16:08

Thanks all the support.

Your right Setara, seeing the words was sooooo much worse than not getting a line.

Skjifox you could be right, I had 2 temp dips and rises a few days apart so think ff is confused too as I get one date on the advanced setting and another on the research setting Confused

Still no AF - 4 days late is unheard of for me so something is up! Going to use my amazon ones until Friday and then if I still have no AF I'll use my other CB digi.

Sorry for being so me me me lately - I will try to snap out of it!

OP posts:
ShaggingWithIntent · 28/06/2011 16:38

Don't worry Liliana - the 2WW is so utterly frustrating and can get a bit all consuming!

I'm sitting here trying to tell myself that testing tomorrow morning wouldn't be a bad thing even though I will only be 10DPO when really I know there is minimal chance of a BFP finding it really tough

Byrnsie30 · 28/06/2011 18:15

Congrats MrsCog (especially after your stressful month!) and skjifox
Lilliana - sorry to hear your frustration. I don't know what situation you've been in last month, but when I had chem PG it lengthened my next cycle to 35 days, so I do think various factors including stressing about ttc can probably affect things.

Good luck to azll. Reading this each day is really getting me through the 2ww!!! x

Poppyjen · 28/06/2011 19:20

Liliana I had that FF confusion last cycle, in the end the "Research" setting had it right considering when I got my BFP. Interestingly the "Research" and "Fertility Awareness" settings agreed with each other, but the "Advanced" rebelled and decided I ovulated much earlier Confused, I guess the next few days will tell you, but I feel your pain Smile

5DPO here and crampy with extremely sore boobs...had this last cycle too but for all I know this could just be normal pill-free post ovulation symptoms...ahhh hate love the 2ww Grin

stuffthenonsense · 28/06/2011 19:56

liliana dont give up hope yet.....with DD4 i tested on my due day, bfn, then, a week later, it was the result i wanted, sometimes the hormones just dont build up as quickly as the tests suggest they might.

Liliana1 · 28/06/2011 20:06

Poppy thanks for sharing that info, at least I'm not the only one.

If research is right I'm 4 days late, if advanced is right I will be 14 dpo tomorrow - does your luteal phase always stay the same? Mine seems to be 14 days so maybe that explains it. Never had to think about it before and assumed the cycle length was the same irrespective of when you ov'd. Will see what happens in the morning fx stuff but feels like AF is on it's way.

OP posts:
Reallea · 28/06/2011 20:23

Lil I did another budgens test yesterday and got a bfn. Freaked out a bit and did another test cbearlyresult this morning BFP. Friend had late clearbluedigi BFP when I was UTD with DS so could still be good news but not good news if you feel AF coming on.

BeeWi · 28/06/2011 20:28

Congrats to all you that have FPs this month- what a lucky, amazing bus.

Liliana been just reading past the last few pages and really feel for you.
Don't know if it's similar but last month I'd had a faint line and got excited about being pregnant and just got a bit ahead of myself, started planning and dreaming. Anyways, tested over the next few days again and got 3 BFNs in a row but AF wasn't there after 3 days. In hindsight, I'm unsure if it was a chemical pregnancy or just me and my body being so desperate for a baby that I kind of 'held on' to my period, if that makes sense? In the end, I got in the bath, forced myself to relax (I'm quite stressed at work, a month off getting married and coming back to the UK for the first time in a few years- so a lot had built up) and told myself, 'come on AF, it's okay for you to arrive' and the next morning she was there.

I hope to goodness that it's not like that for you and you get a BFP really soon. Just really felt for you and thought maybe it might be stress and really wanting a baby or a chem preg.

As for me, AF due today and got the usual pimple on my chin that I get, am craving sweet things...guess it's not my month again. Ah well, at least I'll be able to drink at my wedding and not having morning sickness on the cripplingly longhaul flights.
