Hi ladies,

For those of us out of the July game there are not many places to hide so I thought I'd start a new August thread to give us all some positive vibes!

Cycle 3 - BFP August 6th

Im out girls, the witch got me on my drive to work this morning so will hopefully be September for me!

Going to buy wine instead of syperdrug tests

Fx for you all xx

Ahhhtetley · 10/08/2012 09:45

Sorry to hear that shiney I've been reading the thread and thought, for sure, you'd get a BFP

woody17 · 10/08/2012 09:47

Sorry that af has arrived shiney - wine sounds like a good idea...and chocolate?

FX that September will be the month for you x

kat26ttcno2 · 10/08/2012 10:05

Hi all,
I'm new to the site. Have really enjoyed reading all your posts. Congrats to those who have got their BFP's. I'm also hoping for my BFP any day now. The wierd thing is that I've been bleeding, not spotting, for 2 days now, since 7DPO. Not as heavy as my usual period, but red, brown and pink on tp. Also some thicker clot like blood. I know it doesn't seem probable that I'm pg but I only found out at 20 weeks that I was pg with DS because I had 3 periods/bleeds while pregnant with him. He is now 16 months old.
Anyway, might test tomorrow and see what happens. Has anyone else got BFP with heavier than usual 'implantation bleeding'?

Lorelei353 · 10/08/2012 11:19

Well I'm out. Little bit of spotting yesterday evening gave way to proper AF.

It's really early for me - 25 day cycle - but also quite confusing as I seemed to ovulate later than I thought I was going to, only about 10 days ago. Confused.

Anyway, only 1st cycle of TTC and 1st cycle off Cerazette so things bound to be a little unsettled. On the upside if I'd got AF next week when I thought I would, I'd have it on my holiday. At least now it's out of the way.

So, Cycle 2 begins and off to Sept BFN!

Sorry you're in the same boat Shiney, and good luck to Ahhhtetley! FX for you.

woody17 · 10/08/2012 11:25

Sorry to hear af is here lorelei and I think you are right, if it was going to come, it will be nice not to have it on holiday. FX for a BFP in September.

Hi kat26ttcno2 hope you get a bfp soon. I've only been pg once (and this ended in mc) but I don't think I had any implantation bleeding that time.

I've had some brown spotting today - just a tiny bit - but wondering if it's implantation bleeding. How soon after ov can this take place?

winkle2 · 10/08/2012 11:59

fingers crossed baby!

sorry she got you shiney and lorelei

Sad anniversary for me today. Been officially trying for one year :(

Newbie2 · 10/08/2012 12:45

Afternoon! Just a quick update for you. GP suspects that I have secondary ammenhoria not sure if I spelt that right. I had an internal examination today, blood test booked for next Friday and internal scan booked for 11th September. Only time will tell now :-/

OP posts:
Newbie2 · 10/08/2012 12:47

winkle I'm really sorry :( wasn't it you who said every month that goes by is closer to a BFP? There's some truth in that.

OP posts:
Newbie2 · 10/08/2012 12:55

Oh no I think it was Kick who said that. Have you had any tests to check you out winkle? I can't remember if your have or not?

OP posts:
woody17 · 10/08/2012 12:59

Glad they are giving you some answers newbie and then they'll be able to get it sorted.

Sorry to hear that winkle

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 10/08/2012 13:33

Sorry it's been a year winkle. I have often been told that doing the same thing again and again but expecting a different result is the definition of maddness. No wonder ttc is so distressing and insanity provoking.

newbie sorry about the secondary ammenhoria (I don't know how to spell it either).

Well I felt like I might be pregnant but it is now 8dpo and all symptoms have vanished Sad. Ttc sucks.

NicolaHazel · 10/08/2012 13:38

I'm sorry for the crap anniversary, winkle :-/

At least you may get some answers, Newbie. Fx they can sort it ASAP.

And I feel nothing today, When. Not 'pregnant' and not like AF is on the way. Sigh!

Seems my weird pains are just that. No more, no less.

winkle2 · 10/08/2012 14:40

Thanks girls.

Didnt DTD last night as got in too late but will DTD tonight. That's still every 2-3 days. We have DTD CD 9, 12, 14, 15, 17 and today will make 20. that's ok, yes? Trying to go for it one last time before we fully are in the hands of the doctors.

newbie glad you are finally getting some answers. We are having tests done next Tuesday so fingers crossed for good results.

Sorry for lack of symptoms when and Nicola

goingbananas30 · 10/08/2012 15:12

Newbie Was just going to ask how it went at the docs till i read prior post. Glad u atleast know whats wrong and getting a solution. Good luck.... tonnes of hugs Thanks.

winkle Thanks Thanks Thanks

Hallos all, hope we are all loving the sun and having a good day at work? Count down till 5pm.

Has this happened to anyone before, light yellow spotting after ov? i sure wont call what i see brownn...

Woody all 10 FX

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 10/08/2012 16:12

This is going to be a mememe post (sorry). I do have complete lack of symptoms now BUT have got a tiny amount of implantation bleeding (today is 8 dpo).

Don't dare get my hopes up as this is exactly what happened on the last two cycles and they both ended in chem preg. Argh don't know what to think, am wondering if I am freakishly fertile re sperm meets egg but have a completely incompetent uterus.

Sorry like I said very me me me post.

kat26ttcno2 · 10/08/2012 16:30

Whenshewasbadshewashorrid... really sorry that you've had 2 chem pregs - did you get a bfp at all with the chems? and how long after did you m/c?
I took test today and faint BFP came up - also dont want to get my hopes up in case of chem pregnancy but when does it usually take place? By arrival of AF?
Going bananas - never heard of yellow spotting before - will research it for you and see if I come up with anything

kat26ttcno2 · 10/08/2012 16:34

GoingBananas30 - found a sight that mentions 10 wierd early pregnancy symptoms: www.parenting.com/article/weird-pregnancy-symptoms
Symptoms: Sticky white or pale yellow discharge can be constant during pregnancy, leaving you feeling in frequent need of new undies. Talk to your doctor if it develops a foul odor, itches or burns, or becomes greenish-yellow or very thick or watery; you may have an infection.
Let's hope it's good news for you

kat26ttcno2 · 10/08/2012 16:46

Woody - implantation bleeding usually takes place anywhere from 6 to 12 DPO.
Mine happened at roughly 7 or 8DPO

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 10/08/2012 17:05

kat26 tentative congrats from me. I read your othe post you said you have had some bleeding since 7dpo for two days. You got you BFP today, if today is 9 dpo that is really impressive and sounds like a good sign.

With both of my chem pregs I tested on the same day as missed af and one day after missed af. I got really faint positives which worried me as at that stage the line should have been quite strong (based on what happened when preg with dd). The test become bfn a few days later and a couple of days after that I started bleeding.

Oh just remembered with the last chem preg I tested at 10 dpo and got bfn.

Best of luck with your BFP. Do another test tomorrow or the day after and see of it gets stronger. (and keep us informed).

babyjames · 10/08/2012 17:07

Hi all,
just a quick note as not had time to read back and got to collect DS. Tested this morning and another faint line but couldn't be sure. Have got a CB digital on way home and got BFP!!!!! 2-3weeks!!! Can't quite take it in! 5th Cycle of trying properly so much shorter than last time!
Must dash, will read back later on your posts
:) :) :) :)

woody17 · 10/08/2012 17:09

ok thanks kat26

Congratulations babyjames

Weekend is finally here - got a busy one so hopefully it'll make the 2ww go by quicker!

NicolaHazel · 10/08/2012 17:13

Congrats baby :-)

weechops · 10/08/2012 17:16

babyjames that's great! Congratulations!

lorelai and shiney really sorry af got you. Fx for september.

SunshineOutdoors · 10/08/2012 18:03

cat26 and baby congratulations! Hooray it's been a while and now two bfps!

My fingers are crossed for you whenshewas

Sorry to those who got af.

It appears I ovulated on cd32 (!!) have I got the longest cycle ever? I'm praying temp stays up now. Dtd the day before, the day of ov and the day after. Despite the shagfest not working last month I've tried it again, had to keep going for weeks and still going as if temp goes down again I'd hate to have stopped too early.

3dpo now I think. 2ww is finally here! Actually enjoying it at the mo... Bet I won't be saying that in a week!
