Hi kyoung, the same thing happened to me last month - I'm never late and I was crampy for days then spotting then a horrendous bleed. I just put it down to my body playing tricks with me and / or failed implantation?! Who knows but onwards and upwards for August!
Good luck :)

Am going to sit at the back off the bus near the door as i am very doubtful that this month will be my BFP I had been away leading up to OV back the day I ov'ed but DH not able to preform as he had been alone for 2 days Angry Hmm managed it the day after but am sure it was too little too late :( on the plus side it means I am not a mad peeing of a stick lady like last month i started at 6 DPO Shock

I'm pretty sure AF is on her way, feel quite crampy this morning although the walk to work seems to have shifted them for now (I guess gentle exercise does work).

Thanks for the well wishes I think things just got on top of me, I'm more of a listener than a talker and just let too many people tell me their problems without speaking about my own - it didn't help that one of my best friends kept saying she was jealous of me and my life! Had a bit of a melt down 2 weekends ago got horrendously drunk but feeling a lot better and more myself now.

Congrats to BFP's, commiserations to my fellow AFer's who have been kicked to the back of the bus!

Sorry you have to make that decision Captain but sounds like you made the most sensible one.

monkette · 05/08/2013 09:13

Well af is turning up, 2 days early as well. Really pissed off as thought with the symptoms it would be a good sign but it seems my body loves playing tricks on me. Good luck to the others still waiting to test.

Happy Monday everyone!

Last night was the start of fertile week so shagging has commenced in the Assassin household Grin

Purple 11 out of 13!! That is some going!! Shock

My plan is to jump dh every day this week until Sunday...have some new sexy lingerie to whip out in the middle of the week to liven things up. Between bding and walking miles and miles round a forest yesterday, I deserve the Jaffa Cakes that are sat here in the office calling my name...right?!

DisneyDiva87 · 05/08/2013 12:38

I'm hoping in a weeks time hubby will be feeling a bit more energetic and frisky...

Hi ladies. I've been rudely kicked off the bus as well with month with another early arrival of AF. Am getting fed up now. Been v low about my two pregnancy losses and feeling v jealous of all my pregnant friends (which makes me feel awful). Oh well - there will always be September's bus, I guess. Wishing lots of luck to those of you still to test and commiserations to those in the same boat as me - grrrr.

Oh Disney I'm sad you're off the bus already! Sad

KittyCatKittyCat · 05/08/2013 14:15

Oooh! I'm jumping on - wasn't successful on the last bus, alas, but maybe this bus will do the trick. Hoping to know by the 21st. Thought I was out this month (had relatives staying, massive downer on trying to DTD! Gross.) but relatives are gone and I just noticed what HAS to be EWCM, so I'm back on board! Let's go! (Toot toot.)

KittyCatKittyCat · 05/08/2013 14:16

Oops: ttc#1, cycle 3, bfp 14th-21st (irregular as hell...)

GinandStripes · 05/08/2013 15:52

Helloooo :-)

Time for me to jump on the bus.

I've been trying to keep my cool this month, any symptom spotting and I'm giving myself a right good talking to. Oh but it's so hard not to!

I'm not convinced that I'll be getting a BFP this month. Didn't dtd as much as we wanted for various reasons. But we shall see...

ttc#1, cycle 2, bfp 13th

supercalafraga · 05/08/2013 15:57

thanks for updating gilly - sorry, forgot ttc #1! on a sunny holiday with the hubby so hoping it's our lucky month... off to guzzle some wine and shellfish while I'm still allowed Wink

roodles84 · 05/08/2013 16:57

PurpleGeekyGirl - good effort! DH and I tried to dtd every day in the week before ov but we missed a couple of the days in the end. Here's hoping it worked!

JellyBeanDavey · 05/08/2013 17:29

Hello ladies, congrats to the BFPs :) 2days to go and I'm feeling uncomfortable down there and for the first time in ages, I'm excited to actually have a normal AF. I've felt really grouchy today though I have kept it under control. Plus after yesterday's bfn (I knew it would be) I got majorly drunk last night (first time in almost a year).

I've decided to stop the boot conception support vits and just have B6 and sevenseas trying for folic.

I have decided to spend time away from mn once AF has gone and come back at the end of the month when my 2 week wait is almost over bcos other wise I get obsessed. I'll hover at the back occasionally just to stay updated though :)

PurpleGeekyGirl · 05/08/2013 17:59

I can add another day to the tally now but sheesh!! We're knackered! Just as well we are still a newish (2 years) relationship!! Officially in tww now as think I ovd on fri so 3dpo so we can stop dtd so much!! I did find sex begets sex this cycle tho, and at least it didn't feel like a chore. Good luck to everyone else.

cheesysmile · 05/08/2013 18:44

Sorry to all those AF has got.

Also respect Purple, I don't think DH (or me) would cope with that schedule!

After a bit of advice please ... I started using OPKs for the first time yesterday as no idea when to expect ov this cycle due to mc. Just wanted to check does the line need to be totally the same strength as the other line to be a +ve? I have a clear line but definitely lighter than the other if that makes sense?

Pixie001 · 05/08/2013 19:47

cheesy having peed on 100s a lot of opks I can confirm the line will get darker so that it's same as control line. Try again tomorrow, hopefully you'll see it getting darker...altho it does even change during a day!

Pixie001 · 05/08/2013 19:48

purple...wtf?!

cheesysmile · 05/08/2013 19:56

Thanks Pixie, I'll keep going and hopefully get a darker line soon.
