AGH! I swear, I signed in a hello, went on a holiday and you're all 12 pages on and in a NEW thread!!! I will never catch up at this pace, I'm only on line every other day or so, but I can tell that there's exciting stuff going on with Pinkie, congratulations!!! Reading that is just the motivation I need, a positive focus! Really sweet and funny the thought of you sitting on the loo staring at a feint line!

And wishful, I'm sorry, that's awful, I don't know your back story yet, but an MC is a terrible, sad thing. I hope you have some good people around you right now.

Now, if I remember rightly this is a no symptom spotting thread, so... great. We dtd the morning before we left on holiday and then the morning we were heading out I got my first ever positive ov stick just as we were heading out so we ran back upstairs because those damn stiks don't say where you are in that 24-36 hour window - I do feel sorry for the guys having to produce the goods on demand like that. We were then travelling for two days and after that I figured the window of opportunity must have closed. I had some cramping on day 6 after dtd, but, you know, I'm not symptom spotting for signs of implantation, afterall, as someone above commented, on 25% ish are successful at this stage.

The earliest I can test is Monday, I will search out when everyone's testing dates!

Morning ladies, wishful I'm so sorry Sad here's to you having a decent wtf cycle.

Well I have taken a step back this month and tried not to obsess about stuff, I think I missed ov as I got loads of mucus and was having plenty of sex, then a few days later started doing opks and got a faint line, over the next few days instead of getting darker it got lighter and then disappeared....So ovulation missed!

However, af is due today (originally down to test tomorrow) and there is no sign of her! So I could either be pg or I haven't ovulated this month hence it not coming up on the opk, but would I still get at?

I'm confused.com! Grin Confused

QueenOfTheDrama · 04/06/2012 12:06

jacqueline I could be wrong but I think you do still get af whether you ovulate or not. If af is due today then TEST!! If you dtd plenty before OV then there may have been some swimmers still hanging about at the right time! FX for you! Smile

Hope you had a lovely holiday onemore I'm going to be testing next week too, as are quite a few other ladies iirc.

jaquelinehyde · 04/06/2012 12:11

Thanks QOD. I have no tests and won't be able to get any for a few days so it will have to wait...probably just long enough for af to arrive!

NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 12:19

Yes, Queen, I think you're right.

AF just means that no egg has implanted in the womb lining which prepares itself independently of ovulation.

So you'll have AF without ovulating. Or with, if egg not fertilised.

OpenMindedSceptic · 04/06/2012 12:25

No this is definitely not the no symptoms spotting thread as I do so every day Grin

QueenOfTheDrama · 04/06/2012 12:40

haha openminded where are you up to in your cycle? I haven't been monitoring OV this month in an attempt to be more relaxed and trying to keep it in my mind that I can't be any more than 6DPO at the most, so I wouldn't have symptoms yet anyway even if I was pg!

jacqueline really hope that af stays away for you! If you test in a couple of days and af still isn't here then at least you know you're likely to have an accurate result. Can't wait for more news! Smile

Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 14:21

Ahhh why did I test! Every cramp I'm convinced is af Sad

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 14:25

There's a lot to be said for not knowing until week 8 or something! Or 5 months, like a girl at work :-)

Testing early gives you so much longer to agonise / worry.

Keeping fx for you Pinkie.

Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 14:27

Lol yep very true! We're just off to some jubilee celebrations then going to see my rents (can't breathe a word!) thank god for MN you lovely ladies are my only safe outlet for a few months Grin

OP posts:
Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 14:28

5 months?! How??!

OP posts:
QueenOfTheDrama · 04/06/2012 14:28

Try not to worry too much pinkie (easier said than done I know), I've heard people say that they feel cramps like af is about to start - but then af never arrives. Hope its the same for you Smile

NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 14:30

She had been told nigh on impossible to get pregnant, so didn't think she could be pregnant. But she was!

Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 14:32

Ahhh so a nice surprise then Smile

Queen I've done a little google (slaps wrist!) and it seems very common for anywhere from 2 - 20 weeks! Chill out pinkie!!

OP posts:
Leftwingharpie · 04/06/2012 14:32

Early pg feels exactly like AF about to start - because either way you have high progesterone levels and high progesterone levels produce these symptoms.

QueenOfTheDrama · 04/06/2012 14:33

omg 5 months, imagine the shock! I know someone who didn't find out until 15 weeks and that was shocking enough for her!

NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 14:34

Apart from the arse of a father!

QueenOfTheDrama · 04/06/2012 14:35

aaargh keep x-posting with everyone!

Nothing wrong with a little google if it helps to put your mind at ease pinkie! Smile

NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 14:35

H2B's mum knows someone who found out at 9 months!!!!!

Not her first either. Baffling!

tedmundo · 04/06/2012 15:30

@wishful.. so sorry to hear about the MC. It is awful and I really hope you are ok. If you need erpc, please be assured it is not too dreadful. Helped me by knowing MC was really over.

@pinkie .. sounds Like we may be able to celebrate soon.

As expected, Af came yesterday evening. I am nothing if not regular! Strangely not overly upset as not positive anyway and hated the 2ww. Def taking a month or two off. stuff going on with ds1 that I want to focus on. The 2ww is distracting me too much.

Good luck ladies. Will keep checking in for those bfps x

Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 15:48

Cheers ladies feel a little better now Smile

Ok found out at 9 months pg?! I mean he is that even possible?? You'd have to eat a cake shop to get that big so quick!!

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 04/06/2012 16:01

She apparently put on no weight. And is very slim.

I don't get it either!

Glad you're feeling better. :-)

Pinkie29 · 04/06/2012 17:22

That's madness! And v lucky about not gaining weight! Odd how she never felt a flutter!

did test fmu got faint positive and tmi alert my breats are producing milk

Christelle2207 · 04/06/2012 17:39

Pinkie fingers and toes crossed for you.
So sort it didn't work out wishful. Here's hoping you are pg against very soon.

Symptom spotting this end -about 7days po- ground to a halt, am feeling nothing. We're having a DIY weekend though which is good for keeping my mind elsewhere. Really not feeling hopeful for this cycl though, almost wish AF would come along early again like she did last month, then we can get on with cycle 8...
Have had a outbreak of spots though, slightly odd as I do get that just before/as I get Af yet still too early for that I think.
