Hey All!
Im currently on CD 20 so around 8-10 days until the AF arrives or I can test :D Just thought there may be some others that are waiting and driving themselves crazy! Thought we could hopefully share our BFP within the next few weeks, and keep each other sane! :D

It wasn't you DH21....just starting to get a few Pre-AF symptoms & it's getting me down. Sad

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 10:33

Same here but really trying to stay positive til I know for sure. I swear the not knowing is more painful than AF arriving.

I feel v emotional atm, even watching the NTAs last night when Jonathan Ross cried!

Hi Everyone! Sorry to hear about any BFN-am hoping someone will start the ball rolling for lots of BFP soon! Im approaching my tww next week and im felling stressed about the waiting already! Ive booked lots of stuff so that I'm keeping busy but I always feel horrible at this time of my cycle. As desperatehousewife said its often the not knowing that is worse than AF arriving!

I'm trying to think that it must be my month this month!! Its been nearly a year and I'm about due a BFP! :) I will think positively!!

Hi Laura! Are the numbers in your name related to your age at all? Mine are so that would only make us a year apart, apologies of I've got that all wrong though!

When is your AF due?

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 10:44

KPT083 · 26/01/2012 11:24

I'd like to offer wifey and everyone whos AF arrived a very big Wine.

Milk I'm like you in the not knowing when actual AF is due, sometimes goes a little longer then I get excited, sometimes a bit shorterConfused, but we've started to use the CBFM this month so fingers crossed.
Who's testing mid to back end next week?
I'm in total agreement with desp about just not knowing arghhh!

milk · 26/01/2012 11:50

What is CBFM?

milk · 26/01/2012 11:51

Ah, Clearblue Fertility Monitor :)

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 12:11

milk if your last AF was 20/12 you need to test!!

KPT083 · 26/01/2012 13:44

How have you managed not to test yet Milk?
I'd've probably exhausted my supply by now if I were you.
Fingers and everything else crossed for a BFP Grin

Not sure how it'll work out with the monitor for me but it's giving me hope and worth a try.

Beeblebear · 26/01/2012 13:54

Dtd last night. Pretty sure i'm having ov pains today. Will be swi next few days to be sure then on to the tww with you all. Af due feb 11th. Any poas buddes for me out there?

Sorry about the recent bfn and af arrivals!

twolittlemonkeys · 26/01/2012 14:20

Sorry you're out wifey. I'm not holding out much hope for this month, despite DTD CD 9,10,12,14,15,17,18,19, as my skin has broken out in spots the past couple of days, just like it does when AF is about to make an appearance. Still, even AF showing at a reasonable time would at least confirm the Clomid is working (usual cycles range from 2-5 months). Why do I always obsess and over-analyse every time... I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment - ARGH! Even holiday preparations aren't enough to distract me and I still have over a week before I can test (sits on hands and tries not to think about the stash of HPTs in the bathroom). Fingers crossed for you milk. Anyone else testing over the weekend?

wifey6 · 26/01/2012 14:52

Hi ladies...keeping my fingers crossed for all of you still waiting & testing. Smile
After a (several) good cries...I feel better. Just needed a sulk! Blush I suppose when you want something so much & it feels in reach to then not be anymore...the come-down is hard. But the game is just delayed..not over yet! Smile
Can I ask what Clomid is? Have noticed it a lot on the conception thread.

milk · 26/01/2012 14:54

I have decided to wait until Wednesday 1st February before testing- mainly because I really can't afford to throw money away at the moment and my period has been 43 days before which would explain why AF has not arrived- but I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed :)

milk · 26/01/2012 15:00

duck it!!! I'm going out now to get a stick so I can pee on it tomorrow morning :D

KPT083 · 26/01/2012 15:05

Go Milky!
Am sure that all of us have fingers and everything crossed for you.

wifey6 · 26/01/2012 15:09

Absolutely....Grin Good Luck milky!

bettybat · 26/01/2012 16:23

Can I just say how awesome all you ladies are? In our own ways, in our own lives, we all have anxieties and things that seem like barriers. But it sort of feels like, the details are different for each of us but the situation is all the same. And as much as I hope you all leave soon with BFPs, I'm also so glad all of you are here on this thread with me!

Just seeing some of you put the stats together made me realise what a shared, supportive this experience is. So much love to you all :)

milk · 26/01/2012 16:24

Bought a Boots pregnancy test, took the test, and now I am worst than ever!!!

The line only came up faintly (in comparison to the control line), so I is it a dummy test or am I pregnant?!?

bettybat · 26/01/2012 16:29

Milk!!! They say a line is a LINE! No matter how faint Grin
