We do need more BFPs!! This month started off so well too, but it feels like it's all gone quiet on the BFP front now.

armywag21 · 12/07/2013 13:34

skylerrose I get pain sometimes on the right side.. Which is expected as that's the worst ovary I spose. I'm in my 6th month now so if this is pcos which is most likely then I'm hoping docs will give us a helping hand. All my family know we're trying and now they're kinda like gone all weird with me.. Confused
Probably Doesn't help that my 19yr old sis has now decided she fancies having a baby with a 44 yr old man and neither I then work/have money/live together.. But that's another story.. Sorry for the rant!

Afternoon ladies and good luck to all those editing for BFPs. I need to be thrown off this bus and board the August one. Where do I find it?!

I am hungover and tired today but have to go out for yet another leaving do tonight. When teachers go out boozing at the end of term it gets very messy indeed - am busy lining my stomach in preparation!

Springtime26 · 12/07/2013 14:28

I gave in and did a test.it was BFN. I am a bit disappointed but still have fingers crossed as af not due till Monday.and it was a tesco cheappie.

FoxMulder · 12/07/2013 14:33

Same, springtime

Same on the BFN
Same on AF due Monday
Same on the disappointment and the hope

ThoraNomiki · 12/07/2013 14:48

FX for you both! It could still be too early for a BFP.

FoxMulder · 12/07/2013 14:50

I do hope so

Springtime26 · 12/07/2013 15:02

I am going crazy with this. I was meant to be out with my sister tomorrow but she cancelled on me, so just hanging about at home obsessing.

Vikkijayne2507 · 12/07/2013 15:06

True it may be to early yet keep hope until af arrives

GinandStripes · 12/07/2013 16:27

Hello #waves#

Been a little bit of a lurker and have finally got brave enough to register and climb aboard the bus. Congratulations to all the BFPs Smile

This is our first cycle of trying, for our first. AF is due on the 18th.

According to my period app, I was most fertile between the 29th & 4th. We dtd a lot, before, during & after WinkBlush - not everyday but near enough. I have been feeling out of sorts since the 3rd and symptom spotting like a mad woman! But resisting all urges to poas, going to wait until at least the 17th.

This has officially been the longest 2 weeks of my life and I'm only just half-way!

OrangeMochaFrappucino · 12/07/2013 17:59

Please advise me on my dilemma! Tomorrow is cd31 - would be expecting af but post-mc cycle might be odd so not sure! Have neither pregnancy nor af symptoms. BFN this morning. Assuming tomorrow morning brings another BFN here is my question:

Do I drink at hen do tomorrow afternoon???

I wouldn't drink much because a) am skint; b) am still emotional after mc and don't wish to be a sodden heap weeping into a cocktail as will bring down mood and c) it's fecking hot here and booze+hot sun is a bad combination! But if I abstain completely people might assume I'm pregnant and I don't want them too.

Plus, I'd love a glass of prosecco!

Dumdeedumdeedum · 12/07/2013 17:59

Bit of a tmi question... I've been feeling nauseous all day on and off, haven't been sick but I have had a couple of diarrheaish movements but not in quick succession. I'm somewhere between 7-10dpo can the squits be a pg symptom?

OrangeMochaFrappucino · 12/07/2013 18:00

Also very much hoping af doesn't arrive mid-hen do as my dress is very flimsy and nude coloured!!

Dumdeedumdeedum · 12/07/2013 18:00

Jelly - one wouldn't hurt!

OrangeMochaFrappucino · 12/07/2013 18:01

dumdee I had that symptom in my successful pregnancy - every day! It's a glamorous business!

Tea1Sugar · 12/07/2013 18:14

Who wants to answer my cm question before your dinner? Grin

According to a positive opk, fertility friend and a gush of watery cm I think I ovulated on 5th/6th. Dtd 29th, 30th,2nd,4th,5th. From 2po ive had lots of cm though a different err consistency. Today virtually nada. This isnt hopeful is it?

TeaAndANatter · 12/07/2013 18:21

Not so hopeful from my own past fertility charting (I don't guddle so much these days - I was getting so into cm charting that every wee was an opportunity for a quick fiddle!). In myown limited case sample of one, my three pregs were wet in cycle one all the time after ov, and drier when not preg, but I am but one mumsnetter, and I'm sure we all vary in that direction.

Crossing all for you!

Tea1Sugar · 12/07/2013 18:37

Ok Hmm thanks, will cross my fingers anyway

LeeHandy · 12/07/2013 20:00

omg, nearly missed getting off the train at my stop because i was reading the thread! scrambled off at the last possible second. phew! Blush
my own instincts are to keep the fact that we're ttc to myself. sometimes i just feel like lashing out though when people keep dropping subtle hints. I need to keep reminding myself to take a deep breath and smile when the topic comes up next.
ooh i'm learning lots of new things with the cervical positions and texture of cm. i've spent so many years in blissful ignorance. Smile
sorry af got you, purple
i may visit the hampton court flower show tomorrow, so something to look forward to. hope everybody has a good weekend and we get some bfps before monday! x

armywag21 · 12/07/2013 20:11

Partners on his way home from base :) on cd 14 so hoping ovaries working this month.. Haven't noticed any changes in cm or anything so just keeping my hopes up until I know exactly what's going on. So excited to see him

Writerwannabe83 · 12/07/2013 21:59

Hello everyone,

I have come on because I need to rant : does anybody else get annoyed when people decide to 'symptom spot' on your behalf?

A few people at work know I'm TTC so anytime I mention anything that may related to pregnancy symptoms in any shape or form they are quick to say, "You could be pregnant......" It is kind of uncomfortable to hear because at some point there is a good chance I will have to tell them I'm not. It just feels like a lot of pressure.

Admittedly, over the last 2 days I have felt exhausted and do feel crampy - but every time I yawn I get the, "You could be pregnant" comments or glances.

I didn't think it would annoy me as much as it is......
