PurpleGeekyGirl · 03/10/2012 10:32

oops jelly apols, stupid typing on iphone and not being able to check the thread easily!!!

JellyCurls · 03/10/2012 10:44

Question for you ladies that have had a cp before. Did you bleed heavily during that time and was your next AF a killer? I never really bled after CP (tmi but a few days of red spotting and nothing more) but tests went from BFP to BFN so know I lost it. Am now resigned to the fact that AF is coming (trying reverse psychology on her to trick her into staying away). Now thinking that as AF was all but absent last month she going to get me bad this time round. Does this make sense?

LittleMissSnowShine · 03/10/2012 11:50

Jelly - After CP I had a couple of days of really light spotting, then a heavy and pretty painful AF. It wasn't much heavier than normal, but my AF is usually pretty heavy anyway. Hope that helps a bit - sorry it happened to you :(

pinksky - yeah, i usually try to cut down on caffeine when ttc. haven't been doing a ggod job this cycle tho

Agnus castus i started taking a couple of days ago is def kickstarting something - light spotting has gotten heavier and cm has reappeared after last 3 or 4 weeks of being in hiding. I did pg test before i started taking AC again just to be on safe side but it was def bfn so don't think the bleeding is a bad thing, but i was really hoping this cycle would be a bit more back to normal after 6 week post-mc wtf cycle i had in aug/sep. but it seems not. grumble. just got to keep shagging i guess and hope for the best eventually, but irregular cycles just make everything take so flipping long!!!

tinkfairy · 03/10/2012 11:56

hi ladies i was wondering can wine effect opk result giving false positive i had positive 2 days ago and neg yesterday and positive today confused

But is first cycle after coming off the pill so fingers crossed may get lucky for the end of the month but upto now its been a bit wtf not normal as it were pre-pill.
Maybe just all the stress at the moment lol

pinksky · 03/10/2012 20:29

Sorry about that, littlehelp and Twinks. Crappy AF.
Here's to bfps for us all at the end of the month X

littlepinkfizz · 03/10/2012 22:22

So sorry I put you in and you had already posted twinks I didn't mean to be insensitive. Really sorry x

Sorry for you too littlehelp x

Not feeling at all hopeful myself and in fact just feel like jumping onto next years bus at the next stop. You get like that don't you, full of doom and gloom.

PerpetualProvocateur · 04/10/2012 07:23

Sorry about AF MrsTwinks and littlehelp. Better luck this cycle.

I'm not sure how much of a chance we've got this month now that I've agreed to travel for work next week CDs 15-17. I had a perfect 28-day cycle last month though, so I may have a shot if that happens again. CD 9 now, will try to DTD nearly every day between now and travelling to give us the best odds.

Anyone POAS this morning?

JellyCurls · 04/10/2012 08:17

Morning Ladies

No visit from AF but no BFP either... so I am sitting here furiously symtom spotting to convince myself I am or am not in the baby club.

So far I have got cramps, not like AF ones
Sore boobs when run up and down stairs
And a taste in my mouth like I have been sooking pennies all night Confused

Anyway back to work for me and good luck to anyone POAS this morning

TakingTheStairs · 04/10/2012 09:27

Morning all.
Anyone for tea and toast?
I couldn't resist and took a test this morning and got a bfn. Genuinely not bothered though as I know it's too early really to have been testing, so not feeling down about it. I'm just very happy AF hasn't showed her face yet.

Four days into October and we already have two BFPs. I think that's pretty fantastic. Grin

JellyCurls, that metallic taste is sounding positive. Smile

hello ladies,
great news about the second BFP of the month cereal
reverted to lurker for the last couple of days but recovered from my stunned silence to let you know about my own BFP!!!
tested FMU on IC (20ml/U/ml) and got faint 2nd line, couldn't believe my eyes. So, decided to leave it 48hrs to do a retest. Got a darker 2nd line this morning using same type of test. The 2nd line is still lighter than the control but def darker than Tuesdays test.
The good news has sunk in a bit by now but haven't shared it with anyone in RL yet. Although a toddler and the dog took the test with me I don't think they'll tell anyone! Want to give it another few days before sharing with DH, to avoid any disappointment in these early days.
Found these websites interesting and they kept me from testing very early, www.countdowntopregnancy.com and www.peeonastick.com
FX for all testing, x

TakingTheStairs · 04/10/2012 10:05

VioletCherry

That's AMAZING NEWS.
Mega mega congratulations!!!!!!!!

littlepinkfizz · 04/10/2012 10:08

Hooray violet hooray!

And taking far too early to get a BFP but know you couldn't resist! Fx

AnotherCerealNameChanger · 04/10/2012 10:17

violet CONGRATULATIONS!

And I am so relieved I am not the only one not sharing with anyone else just yet, DH has decided he doesn;t want another child after sleep regression hit this week in toddler so I am keeping quiet. Won't hurt anyway to get the early days out of the way and I don't book in until 9 weeks here.

taking hope that its just a smidge too early :)

littlepinkfizz · 04/10/2012 12:11

cereak my 19 mth old has us up 10 times last night, nothing wrong,just wanted straightened out in cot. Both of us like zoombies today. S,eep been getting worse and just wondering if we should just let him cry for a bit as he settles perfectly after we go in. Though I can't bear to hear him cry.
Any ideas?

JellyCurls · 04/10/2012 12:24

Congratulations violet super news!!

LexiLoganberry · 04/10/2012 12:31

Congrats to cereal and violet cherry Grin

I've tried not to do to much ss this cycle, last month I convinced myself I was pregnant.

I've been having some cramps, like mild period pains and slightly sore boobs, however I'm putting this down to the kitten, I know that sounds really weird. She's 6 months old and has suddently taken to wanting to rest on my boobs and while she's trying to get comfortable she does that thing where they tread over and over again.

Each cycle I break out in 4 or 5 spots around my jawline about a week before AF arrives and they came yesterday so i'm now thinking I'll be getting a BFN.
