Aiming for an August 2012 BFP Part 2

[winkle2]

Seeing as the old thread is nearly full, lets carry on the chat here!

I didn't realise dizziness was a part of it too frustrated. To be fair the docs tried to fob me off, but I can't be a stubborn cow when I want to be

Well the witch showed her face last night. A few days ago we both decided to take a break from ttc for 6 months. Both our jobs are v busy at the moment with new legislation coming in (we both work in payroll losers) and are not in the best place financially. So we just want a few months to sort ourselves out.

Thanks to everyone for your support. I really hope none of you are on these boards when I come back

hi been lurking. really grateful for some thoughts. Last AF was 30 July. DTD from cd6 through till cd16. This was cut a bit shorter than we'd planned - Average cycle 28 days - over last year I've had one 32 day cycle and one 26 day cycle. Now on CD31.

On CD24 and CD25 I had hot flushes and wiped out - killer back ache like af starting but sort of deeper too. No spotting.

BFN's on internet cheapies before y/day and BFN on CB digital y/day morning. No niggling feelings like af due to start - I normally feel it in my back for days before AF but in more of a scratch way. Boobs v heavy.

Plan to get a cheapie test today to look for a line again but am particularly wondering about the pains on CD25 -or perhaps I just cut off the sex too quickly this month and I ovulated late. Never had a cycle so late as to have ovulated cd25 tho...

any wise words (other than that get a life and test or shut up!)

slattern i will miss you around here, but we understand everyone needs a break every now and then.

pickof I personally don't conpletely trust ICs, but with the pains around the 25th, I'd be tempted to wait a day or 3 before testing. easier said than done FX for you.

Well no AF as yet , but I usually come on around 2ish. No AF symptoms as yet tho either.

FX to all others still hanging in there !

af got me this morning gutted

Bad luck to recipients of a slap from af. Better luck next month.

Cd1 as of yesterday afternoon am probably not gonna head to sept thread as think if I'm stressing so much that it delayed for so long then I prob need to take a chill pill and not think about it so much. Had a dream this morning that I gave birth to a little girl and I think I need to relax. Been lovely chatting to you all and maybe I'll come back now and then to see how you're all doing. Fx for all those still waiting and fx for everyone else for next month x

Usually a lurker but looking for some thoughts/advice.

AF due 3 days ago, very rarely late so POAS yesterday - BFN Was convinced it would be BFP (sore boobs, bloated etc), but desparately clinging onto every last straw thinking about it, I drank a lot of water just prior to testing which after lots of Google searches in hindsight I now know was a bit foolish (but had a big kidney stone removed beginning of the year so constantly drinking lots of water to prevent myself ever having to go through that pain again! Force of habit.)

Could drinking lots of water really make a false BFN? Or am I just fooling myself and AF is on her way (albeit much later than usual).

Clinging onto every last hope - this is our last month of trying for DC#3

Another one clinging onto every last hope here. I've been spotting the last few hours and have convinced myself it could be implantation bleeding. The reason I think this is because I had potential OV signs eight days ago (quite late at day 30, but this is my first cycle after childbirth so anything could happen, plus I had a tremendous amount of stress for a couple of weeks earlier in the cycle, which could have delayed OV). Also, I don't normally spot at the start of AF, just go straight into a heavy flow, and I usually have cramps the first day, which I don't now.

What do you think?

Sorry about AF Satsuma I can understand wanting to take a break. Better luck when you start trying again.

Pickofthepops, when I was pregnant with DS I noticed a lot of niggly pains around the uterus area early on. Could it have been something like that? If you did ovulate late it might too early to test.

Sarah, any news?

Sorry tink and Ninja . Better luck next month.

dowhat, I would test again using concentrated first morning urine to be sure. Good luck!

No AF yet! Still hanging in there!!

Hi

Im still in! CD22 no AF. Bad cramps Sun and still no sign of AF. BFN yesterday though...last DTD 8 days ago. Any chance I could be pg?? Month ago today had my MC so might just be a messed up cycle!

Thanks berryberry. I've bought another test but will try to restrain myself til Friday am.

FX for you berryberry, sarahbanana and pickof. Between us we will squeeze another BFP into the August thread (and everyone else still clinging on!) - power of positive thinking x

Well, I'm out. This is definitely AF, not implantation bleeding.

Fx for you Sarah, Avocado, dowhat, and anyone else still hanging in there. I'll stick around to see what happens. xx

Thanks berri and frustrated. I'll keep popping back to see how your getting on

super when is ur af due? I forget, but am keeping fx for u...

Sorry meant CD32 not CD22 !

Ok, I gave in. I couldn't wait til tomorrow morning and for first pee of the day. So against my better judgement I just tested again. BFP!! So maybe it was drinking too much water before the last test that gave me a BFN. It's all very confusing. But all the signs are there - sore boobs, bloated, dizzyness. I'm going to believe this result.
Can't wait to tell OH when he gets back tonight.
Fx for everyone else clinging on desperately - there is hope.

Congrats Dowhat I am from the July thread but tend to lurk to see how people are getting on x x

Congrats dowhat!!

Still no AF here - but BFN on test this am so she's probably on her way - am not getting my hopes up .

Thank you Zoey & Sarah. Still got my fx for you Sarah

Couldn't wait til OH got home so texted him a pic of the test. He's in a meeting .

Congrats dowhat!!! Amazing news!

I poas a stick today and still BFN. I think it is unlikely now so just waiting for AF to arrive. Boo!

Still waiting for AF aaaaaaaaargh!!

Me too Sarah! Feeling your pain!! Didn't think I'd want my AF so bloody much but can't carry on until it comes!! Grrr

I just wish it would hurry up and come so we can keep trying - 3 days late now . Didn't bother testing this am as I have just given up. If no AF by Monday then I may test again but with a proper test not an ic!
