Dalrymps thats more good news, but if you still don't believe it, why not go to the doctors and get them to test you and then you will have a definite. On my DC1, my DH didn't believe the POAS result, so went to Docs and after PO another S, the Doc confirmed it. Just a suggestion Smile.
Well i'm on my 16 cd and I've got really bad cramping, AF not due til another 11/12 days, hoping against all hope that it is implantation pains or something, well I can hope Hmm. FX for anyone due to POAS today xx

Dalrymps · 28/09/2011 08:12

I do believe the resultSmile it the same as when I had ds2. Started out faint and kept getting darker.. I'm just waiting for that point when I POAS and it comes up quickly and the line is dark but I'll have to stop testing early and wait for the HCG to rise for that I guessGrin

crystaltea36 · 28/09/2011 11:27

Congrats Dalrymps! So I'm 3/4 days away from Aunt Flo, and have had some light brown spotting. Still no other symptoms so am thinking it's just normal pre-aunt flo spotting. Is it too early to POAS? I just want to know keep stressing out about it! Just want to know to plan for next month's attempts!!!

crystaltea36 · 28/09/2011 19:31

well update, not that anyone seems to have been on here all day! I POAS and it was a BFN :-( it was a cheapie tesco one, I know it's still 3 days before Af due but would have come up if positive surely? I dunno :-( feeling sad. Oh well..there's always next month.

GoldenDaffodil · 28/09/2011 19:48

Any more news Daleymps?

Sorry to hear about your bfn crystal. Don't give up hope though as 3 days is still to early to show up on many tests. Still no AF for me, I'm now 2 days late and note even spotting.

thedogwalker · 28/09/2011 20:00

Crystal don't give up hope hun, it may be too early to get a proper result, wait til AF over due and then test, I know it will drive you inasane waiting, but at least it will be a definite result. FX for you.
Golden Are you not tempted to POAS, I would have so done it by now, you are a very calm lady. Good luck at AF staying away, so hoping you are on the graduates bus Smile.

Hi Crystal, I did see your post earlier but I couldn't reply as I can't type on my phone since I dropped it the other day - most frustrating!

Don't be too disheartened just yet - most tests you need to use the first pee of the day if testing before your af is due and even then the accuracy is significantly reduced so there's every chance this could still be your month.

Golden - I don't suppose there's any chance your dates could be a bit out and it might be worth doing another test in the next few days?

I think... I might be

Did 2 at weekend (early I know) and both very faint. Did one this evening and def there. Scared to believe it! Will get a Clear Blue tomorrow xx

GoldenDaffodil · 28/09/2011 20:10

Hi dogwalker I tested this morning and it was a bfn so I really don't think I am. Dates can't really be wrong mycat as I use a clear blue fertility monitor which has always been spot on in the past Confused.

Horsey sounds promising to me Smile.

Oh xposted Golden - well, although I am known for being extremely stubborn, even I can't argue with a cbfm. I really hope next month is a better one all round for you.

Ooh Horsey sounding goodSmile

News here is about the same. Found another cheapo test in the bathroom cabinet and did it this morning. There was a faint line again which was slow to appear. My Af was due today and has stayed away so another positive sign.

I think I'm gonna have to wait a few days before I get a darker result but I can't stay patient and keep doing little tests that all look pretty similar!Grin

I just want to do a test and see that nice dark line, patience patience!

Mersea · 28/09/2011 22:34

Just thought I would pop back to see how things are going. Oh horsey what a wonderful birthday gift if you are, it certainly looks promising. Great news for all of us over the '35 now you are an older mum' threshold Grin

fx for those still waiting to POAS or a darker line on ASPO!!

oggy24 · 29/09/2011 07:34

Sounding good for some of you guys! Fx... I have no idea how you are so patient! My AF is due today with no sign at the moment. Though I had the usual lead up signs so think it is just playing tricks.

Think I may POAS because a BFN usually gives me an answer at least and then AF comes straight after! Honestly, its like my body plays games with me...

Imustbecrazy26 · 29/09/2011 07:58

Well af got me but am happy as it was a 29 day cycle and opks workd to so fx crossed for next month!

Good look to all those still waiting

Dalrymps · 29/09/2011 08:10

Imustbecrazy Sorry AF got youSad Your cycle length and the opk results are promising for next timeSmile Fx crossed for you for a July baby xx

Well, I continue to text here. I have 4 cheapy tests left (found 2 boxes of 3Grin) so did a text this morning. This time the line came up well within the 5 minutes and is slightly darker, as in, I can see it from a distance and it's deffo pinkGrin

I am slowly becoming more reassured. I tortured myself last night by reading threads about people getting faint BFPsHmm Not such a good idea as lots of different outcomes (mostly good) and it just gave me more things to worry aboutBiscuit

Dalrymps · 29/09/2011 08:10

Continue to test!

Imustbecrazy26 · 29/09/2011 08:28

Thanks dalrymps bet I sound bit odd but cycles have been a bit all over the place since coming off the pill so fx this is a step in the right direction!

Good luck to you

GoldenDaffodil · 29/09/2011 08:39

FX Dalrymps surely if the line is getting darker pg is becomming increasingly likely .

Anyone else testing today? Still no AF for me and no AF/pg symptoms either. So strange!

Sorry AF got you imustbecrazy I really hope July will be your month. I had odd cycles whne I first came off the pill too so I know what you mean about being relieved when things settle down.

MyCatLikesToHideInBoxes · 29/09/2011 08:39

Sorry about af crazy but you're right, getting a handle on your cycle is a really positive step so fx for you it pays off next month.

Dalrymps - lol at pregnancy texting - baby brain has kicked in already then! Grin

Well, I keep swinging between am I, aren't I. For: started wretching brushing my teeth last night and emptying ds's potty this morning don't feel particularly af-ish Against: had mega hormone headache yesterday which usually happens day before af arrives.

Only have cb digi test and don't want to waste it - if no af today I think I'll test tomorrow
