Well I am dusting down the drivers seat and kick starting the April bus for those the BFP fairy missed on the lucky Mad March bus. Fingers crossed the destination for this one is 'Baby Central'.

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 12:16

My news is that it's now cd26 and my temps are still low Sad

No rise like last month.

Since coming off the pill in December my cycles have been 30 days every month.
So this is either a strangely long cycle OR Im not ovulating this month at all and AF will come as usual in a few days.

OR I ovulated in the last day or so and my luteal phase is reaaaally short this month.

Positive OPK on Tuesday and Wednesday so maybe my temps are just taking a while to rise.

Feeling a bit bleehhhhhh about it all Sad

Kinda want AF to come so I can put this month down as a weird one and move on.

Poop.

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 12:19

Part of me wonders whether my thermometer is just f**ked Angry

littlepinkfizz · 19/04/2013 12:44

Fantastic purple! Thanks

Penny31 · 19/04/2013 13:36

Hi gilly, sorry you are having a confusing time. Do you have any AF symptoms? I reckon you are having an extra long cycle. I don't suppose you actually be pregnant already could you?

So I rang the docs to announce my BFP all excitedly. I asked the male receptionist what the process was cos I've just discovered I'm pregnant. He said I need to bring in a urine sample and make an appointment at that stage. Eh??? What am I supposed to do, hand my pee over and say I'm pregnant here is my sample? In front of the whole waiting room? The receptionist sits behind glass so I have to shout. I don't like it!!

PurpleGeekyGirl · 19/04/2013 14:11

Thanks for the congrats Grin am v paranoid now tho as had some brown cm earlier... I know it's normal (& I had the same with ds in and off till 8 weeks) but it doesn't stop the worry does it (or the obsessive knicker checking!).

Sorry to hear AF has arrived for Mullin. FX for next month and for everyone else still on the bus.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 19/04/2013 14:14

Pixie I've been trying sooooooo hard not to ss since I stepped away from mumsnet a few months back. I nearly threw up feeding the cat on Monday. And that made me go hmmm! Then as the days have gone on more and more symptoms have arrived but different ones to other months when I was too obsessive. I've not had mouth ulcers, lots of cm or thirst like this before. I have had bouts of nausea and sore boobs so discounted those even tho they did start last week (so about 8 dpo).

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 15:49

Hi penny Smile

No don't think I can be pregnant... It's a weird cycle I think...

AF came on 25th march and ended on 29th march.... Then a few days later on cd10 (3rd April) I had a small amount of blood in my knickers and when wiping... On/off for maybe half a day and then it stopped.

Now I'm on cd26... No temp rise yet... A TINY amount of EWCM I think a couple of days ago and a positive opk. Well... I was doing OPKs every day and finally the line was as dark as the control line so I assume it was a positive! But still no temp rise and AF is due next Wednesday!

I'd love to do a test and find I'm pregnant but my temps are so low so don't think that's possible!

Just a waiting game I guess!

TobyLerone · 19/04/2013 16:03

Maybe your thermometer is broken, gilly.

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 16:06

Also dtd sooo much last week as I was expecting ov...Went away for the weekend to see my family so didn't dtd over the weekend (tiny room+tiny bed+thin walls!)

And this week we have been working funny shifts so only managed to dtd on Wednesday (twice haha)...

Also away this weekend with visiting family again(!!!) so won't get a chance to dtd this weekend so I've probably missed Ov this month (if I have ovulated at all)

Weird weird.

God knows! So confused!

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 16:08

Haha Toby I'm genuinely starting to think it could be!
It seems to exactly the same temp quite often... Blush
Although it does change every few days. I dunno.

Might buy another one just in case for next cycle!

TobyLerone · 19/04/2013 16:26

Get DH to try it out, gilly.

CubanoHabana · 19/04/2013 18:44

I'm 8/9dpo and have a small amount of brown cm, it is cd 28 but cycles have ranged from 28 to 44 days since coming off pill, according to temps and fertility friend, I am not due af until next week. So very unsure at the moment, whether it is start of af (early) or possibly implantation bleed... Think I may test fmu tomorrow, if af not shown up but feels too early either way... Any ideas?

Ps congrats purple!

WanabeMum · 19/04/2013 20:46

Congratulations purple!!!

I'm out this month, AF arrived a few hours ago so may bus here I come! Not too worried though, it will happen when the time is right Smile

dutchyoriginal · 19/04/2013 21:23

And another BPF! I tested first on Saturday two weeks ago, but that was still too early. Then on Tuesday after, I was on my 26th day without any signs of AF (which is odd for my), so when I came home from work I POAS on impulse. And it was a BFP!

I'm very nervous though, because I've had at least one (official) MC before, and I keep feeling cramps. :-( It's one of the reasons I hadn't posted so far. I keep worrying it'll go wrong. However, so far, so good and FX everything will be ok. :-)

PurpleGeekyGirl · 19/04/2013 21:36

Sorry wannabemum and congrats dutchyoriginal.

I'm still spotting brown cm, it's been coming and going all afternoon when I wipe. It's normal right? Am so worried cos the line was sooooo feint and I have convinced myself I am fabricating my thirst and nausea Shock I've never got to cd29 tho without full blown af.

MrsAVB · 19/04/2013 21:37

Ooh... congrats dutchy, I know that nervous feeling, so FX xxx

gillywillywoo · 19/04/2013 21:40

Ahhhhhhhhhhh congrats dutchy! So happy for you Smile xxThanksThanks

Pixie001 · 19/04/2013 22:01

dutchy that's amazing! Fx for a sticky bean, wish you 9 happy healthy months
purple I'm sure it's nothing to worry about, think someone a couple buses back had some similar symptoms and things settled down
wanabe sorry af got you, very sensible approach, hope may is a good bus for you
