Hoping for a July BFP Part Two

[redstrawberry]

Hoping the luck continues here.....

Really glad you're not pregnant kick feels really strange writing that.

RIBS you sound quite positive, I guess you can see a positive with a chem pregnancy af least you are ovulating and your dh's sperm are in good nick.

I am completely out for July but am going to keep posting here and hopefully celebrating more BFPs.

Oh gutted to read the thread this morning :( :(

So sorry about the BFNs pooley, dulcet* RIBS and kitty really gutted for you all.

I think its frustrating as its the one thing you can't control. Be good to yourself as you have done it all. Enjoy the RIBS I will join you for some if I get a BFN (most likely as feeling AF like cramps already).

I have told myself, if it doesn't happen in July it only means more sex and fun with DH next month, I can drink wine, eat cheesecakes and force myself to be patient. I am trying to look on the positives and appreciate all I have. I am prepared to be hit by a bfn (I think!) It will happen for us girls! One day we will be jumping up and down with a BFP stick, don't loose hope.

Yay for your AF about to arrive kick couldn't be happier for you :)

Effing mad being happy for AF but there you go.

I have decided that we should be fine next month. I did a bunch a calculations last night and (without including my night time highs and lows), my average blood glucose for every test done over the passed 5 weeks is 5.5. That means that my hba1c should be in the region of very, very nice and low. In fact, if my night time highs and lows take it up to 7, it will STILL be under 6%.

So I said that I am going to go mad and exercise and stuff until my next test on 9 August and then see what it is. It should be down by the end of next month!!!

THIS, ladies and no-gentlemen...iS A HAPPY DANCE!

Thanks red. I'm not too disappointed. Looking forward to a cycle using the cb kit. Plus, anniversary this weekend so can celebrate with a glass or two several of bubbly! I won't even mind if AF holdas out till Monday this time. (Although if she does I will clearly be testing again!)

dulcet i will succumb to OV sticks next month if I am not pregnant this month. I just want to know if an LH surge is detected and at what point! Just to get some answers....Hope AF still stays away for you.

Kick If your hba1c tests come back all normal does that mean you will be able to DTD with an intent to TTC in August?

Red - yep thats the plan. If they come down to under 7%, then we can start DTDing. But I've also read some medical journals and they say risk is only increased after 8%. So we would be less careful if I was 7.9% and under and obviously humping like rabbits if I am under 7%.

But my overall levels now would indicate that I should be easily under 7% so heres hoping!

Oh bugger, sorry for all the BFNs - I'm definitely not testing till Sunday but have a feeling I'm prolonging the inevitable - also getting cramping pains here so may not have to wait till Sunday.

kick fx you are swi soon :) all the figures sound good.

fx for you kittybump could really do with seeing another bfp!
hope they are pregnancy cramps.

Good luck kittybump!

We have DTD and am winkling- all before 6.30am, dedication hey!

CD15 and had +OPK on Wed night and Thur afternoon so the 2ww will soon be upon me. Feeling positive that this could be our month

Just realised I will be testing on the 3rd so will have to shuffle across to the August thread soon.

Will have some breakfast first though- anyone for some OJ and toast? Choccie Philadelphia may be required, well it is Friday.

Morning dexi never been brave enough to buy the choccie phila. Is it any good?

I am not feeling very positive this month. I have the exact same AF symptoms as last month. I don't think I am pregnant :( Really wanted to be .... but feel like I am holding on to some false hope. I am 12dpo today and dont feel any different to last month.

Oh yes please dexi. I'm in bed as day off and could do with someone bringing me brekkie. Not had that cheese though so not sure I'll like it. Loving your positivity!!

Are you going to test again red? I'm on 11dpo if i ov'd when i think i did. plan to wait until Tues now.

nope I haven't tested yet dulcet too scared to see the bfn.
how you feeling? any strong signs yet?
I think i'll wait till tomorrow when im 13dpo to see if there are any changes.

Hi everyone, first post on Mumsnet for years! I'm 30 and my two boys are 12 and 9 and I'm trying for number 3. On CD 25 and I'm feeling very lightheaded which is either early pregnancy or a bad head cold. I tried testing with a cheap strip but it fell apart just as I was looking at, or imagining, a very faint line. I will try again tomorrow with a better test.
Better get used to this site again although not much has changed.
Good luck everyone.

I tested yesterday and was BFN. I don't think it's my month and don't really have any symptoms but no AF signs either. Just going to see what happens this weekend now. If she's coming I want her to turn up really, so I can get on it again!

Dexi I'll be testing on 5/6th so fingers crossed hey! Need to ovulate first though. I already have plans in my head of what I can do next cycle kind of makes me feel like I've given up already but I am also having waves of positive thoughts that Aug is the one!

oh sorry to hear that dulcet I just had a chat with DH and we've just agreed to not get too disappointed this month and go for it again next month. I think i'll be able to handle the bfn, might go into the COD for a few days and then give it another go in August.

FX for you too newbie - how far along in your cycle are you?

I'm on CD25, 4-5 days till period is due. Not entirely sure on my cycle though as this is my first month off the pill. Just realised I have a very definite head cold so I can rule out lightheadness as an early symptom at this point. I don't think this will be my month but at least it's fun trying. I'll stick around to see everyone else's results though.

Sorry about the bfn dulcet hate the wait in between bfn and start of af. But you know what they say it isn't over till the witch arrives.

Hi thingy! Sorry missed your message below. Are you planning a test next week then?

Thanks red. I feel alright about it all. It's just so much waiting. I feel positive about Aug too. I have cb sticks and I am going to try my hardest to get the timing spot on!!

Hi red I'm on cycle 3 - cd 12 (expecting to OV on cd 14-sun like last month. CBFM tells me I'm high fertility but not peak yet)

Hello

Rule number one when trying for a baby - NEVER tell anyone you're trying for a baby!!

Went out last night with some girlie mates, mentioned my missed period to them (nearly wrote pissed period then!!) to see if it had ever happened to them and one of then started going on about relaxing and maybe I was stressed. I said I'm fine, I'm treating it like it came and went and starting again. Then she started saying but you might be stressed and not know about it so stop thinking about having a baby. I said how am I supposed to do that?! I repeated about 100 times that I wasn't stressed and i was fine but she kept going in and on saying you are stressed I can tell! I said I'm getting stressed at YOU not the baby thing!

Aarrrggghhhhh!
