MsFanacker sorry about your bfn.

Re the drinking thing. As I didn't find out till I was 16/17 weeks with DD1 I drank (not a lot mind you as not a big drinker) back then and she is fine Smile with DD2 i'd have a glass of wine with sunday lunch every now and then. So in moderation really and what you want to do.

Is it Friday yet?

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 07:42

Onto day 37 Sad sigh!!!!

Spring, that's what I'm thinking if I have symptoms then surely that means there's enough hormone to detect on a test!!! Prob just imaging the symptoms!!!

QueenofClean · 12/02/2013 08:04

So tired this morning. By 9pm last night I could barely keep my eyes open.

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 09:15

Me and Hubby dtd last night, if anything I thought it might bring AF on but nothing!!! 4 days late now!!! Someone stop me from going insane!!!

QueenofClean · 12/02/2013 11:01

Wardy - maybe worth getting a blood test to check if home tests are bringing up a bfn.

Hope everyone is well today. I feel shattered. Am about to make some potato & leek soup for DD2 & me for lunch.

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 11:56

Queen - I will wait a week and then if nothing will call the Dr!!

notsoold · 12/02/2013 12:07

Wardy.....I hope everything goes well for you...waiting is a killer isn't it?

Queen I love soup!!!

Still waiting over here. More and more I think that is just a wtf cycle and as I didn't have many of those after my mc and cp I can't complain really:( but of course a part of me is hoping for a bfp on Friday....

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 12:12

How many days late are you now notsoold?

notsoold · 12/02/2013 12:34

4/5 days late but because my cycles are long 31/32 days long it feels like forever, so I sympathize with you....

notsoold · 12/02/2013 12:36

Wardy how are you distracting yourself???

I wonder when we will see some more bfps in the thread??? Anybody testing today/ tomorrow????

Springbells · 12/02/2013 12:37

Long cycles are truly rubbish. I'm starting to wonder if I even ovulated this month. Not long off the pill, so maybe not...

Springbells · 12/02/2013 12:38

nots.. We def need some bfp on here, it's nice to hear others' good news. Keeps me smiling!

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 12:51

Nots - my cycle is normally 32 days as well. I'm not really distracting myself I'm struggling big time I'm on day 37 today!!!!!

Spring - how do you know if you ovulated or not? I used clearblue OPKs and got a smiley face which means it picked up an LH surge!! Does that mean I definitely ovulated? What does it mean if you didn't ovulate?

Roll on the BFPs xx

Springbells · 12/02/2013 13:01

Wardy, lh surge is an indicator and combined with bbt monitoring is a really good indicator, but don't know if there is a way of confirming ovulation for definite. Blood tests maybe, but not a doc so don't know. Lack of ovulation can lead to irregular periods hence my thoughts about my situation, as only just off the pill which stops ovulation. Ic should arrive tomorrow, not sure I'm going to be able to stop myself testing mid afternoon! It's got to the point I'm glad they didn't come today so i can't test and be disappointed this afternoon!

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 13:09

Spring - I've just done some reading and one we site says that after a mc it's POAS to have LH surge but not ovulate and this is my first cycle after mc so now I'm thinking I probably haven't ovulated, but why would that make your period late?

I'm really upset now I know it's silly to get hopes up but I was really hoping I was late coz pg and the hormone just needed some time to come through Sad sorry for whinging!!!

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 13:16

Meant to say poss to have an LH surge

notsoold · 12/02/2013 13:17

Wardy....sorry for you mc hun...and although I don't have any information to give regarding LH I know how awful it is afterwards during af visits and the build up of expectancy for another bfp....
Take care of yourself ....(hugs)

QueenofClean · 12/02/2013 13:22

Wardy hopefully it's just hormones just not high enuff yet.

I feel absolutely shattered and def think AF one her ugly way :(

I had a sickness bug the week/end I was due to ovulate would that effect things at all?

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 13:32

Queen - I don't know about the sickness but but I hope AF is a no show for you

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 13:36

Nots - thank you it's good to talk to people who knows what it's like xx

Springbells · 12/02/2013 13:50

Oh wardy, sorry if I upset you, I just know the pill can affect it, hence my post. Internet is a nightmare, I try not to google things, and there is a load of sites that cover almost every eventuality/combination/random symptom going. I also read somewhere that fertility spikes after a mc, as I said, everyone's unique and its hard to tell what's medically proved fact and what's just someone's personal experience.

Here's hoping both of us are showing bfn as not enough hormone yet. I'm going to docs on Thursday if still no af. No idea what they'll be able to do but hey, worth a shot.

Big hugs xx

Wardy17 · 12/02/2013 13:57

Oh spring you didn't upset me at all just getting upset with the whole process!! I've read about being more fertile after mc too!! Probably best not to sit and read Internet!!

How many days late are you? Maybe I should speak to docs as well!! X

MotherOfCleo · 12/02/2013 13:59

ladies I'm in a pickle, I have serious lower back ache, major tiredness, plus I keep feeling sick and..........I've not even OVd yet lol.
I do finally have EWCM though so should OV in the next few days. Wink

MotherOfCleo · 12/02/2013 14:08

just did an opk and got a positive so maybe that explains the back ache???? no idea re the rest though.

Springbells · 12/02/2013 14:29

Wards - same as you, day 37. Truly fed up too, just kinda wish af would hurry up so I can get back to normal and get on with next cycle.

Mother - sounds good! As for the rest, no idea, but maybe your noticing the effort your body's putting in to ovulating this month! (See? I have no idea and make a complete guess Grin)
