Looking for company! I'm 1dpo now (I think) and already feeling nauseous.

We're TTC#2, DD1 is 10 months, still bf so some luteal phase issues .

We hit all the right days with dtd I think so fingers crossed.

Anyone else?

I'm out! Good luck to everyone still waiting!

xwonderingx · 26/07/2013 07:55

10 days late still bfn !

Doctorhappy · 26/07/2013 08:18

Life so sorry this hasn't been your month either. Have a good feeling about August...
xwondering - very weird! Maybe you should test again?

Wildwaterfalls · 26/07/2013 08:53

Really sorry life... Frustrating isn't it.

AF showed up here this morning so I'm now definitely out too Hmm.

Still, August is another month.. How about we keep each other company for more testing then?

X that is very odd. Can't remember if you had made a doctor's appointment?

Wild, what a disappointment, hope you are ok. At least it's the weekend - I plan to cheer myself up with a large glass of wine this evening! Yes let's keep each other company this month, think there are a few of us. I might kick things off by asking if people have 'strategies' e.g do you try between days 10-20? Every day/second day? Or just when you feel like it?
Who's still waiting? pxmx?

Wildwaterfalls · 26/07/2013 10:38

Doctor the strategy here will be much the same as last month because that clearly worked so well: invest in some of those smiley face OPKs and start tracking. I think where we went 'wrong' maybe was to do lots of SWI early on just in case, and then by the time the smiley appears we'd kind of 'run out of steam' a bit iyswim...

So taking it easy for the next 10-14 days I think.

What about you?

Come out in new spots today another sign of af , I'm going doctors next week

pxmx · 26/07/2013 18:23

I'm out, came on this morn :( Cried for half an hour would probably be crying now but i'm still at work so trying to behave like a normal human and not the hormonal mess that i actually am.
This is the first and last time i let myself get my hopes up.
Ill join everyone for next month, tho right now all i feel like doing is giving up completely. And to add insult to injury i'm still peeing constantly only now its starting to sting so i'm fairly sure ive some kind of water infection, probably from all the sex ttc. Fu*k it i'm still gonna drink my body weight in wine tonight.
X def head for the doctors for peace of mind if nothing else.
Until the next round ladies.........

Cupcake11 · 26/07/2013 19:28

Sorry to hear about all the new people who are out this month :(

Doctor - my strategy will be regular sex throughout the month and lots around the middle of my cycle.

Haven't got to ov kits yet - would anyone strongly recommend them?

xwonderingx · 27/07/2013 08:08

11 days late still negative. , I've noticed my urine is so muggy what could that mean ?

xwonderingx · 27/07/2013 08:09

Cloudy ??

Cupcake11 · 27/07/2013 08:25

I'm not sure X - what days your doctors appointment? Hopefully they'll be able to give you some answers and put your mind at rest.

xwonderingx · 27/07/2013 08:28

It's not till Wednesday , I'm worrying its somthing more now :( x

Doctorhappy · 27/07/2013 09:53

xwondering could there be any other reason you haven't got your period yet - have you been under a lot of stress? Or on a strict diet? Have you lost a lot of weight recently? Have you recently come off the pill or had a coil removed? Unfortunately it doesn't sound like you are pregnant this month, it's frustrating not to have your period yet though so you can move on. I bet it's nothing to worry about, hopefully the doc can put your mind at rest.
As for strategy, reckon we will try for every 2-3 days between about day 8 and day 22 just to be safe...
Also I really need to reduce my coffee intake! As of Monday I am sticking to one coffee a day for a week then the week after I'm going cold turkey.
Hope you all had a nice relaxing evening last night and are ready for another month - I had a few glasses of wine and watched some trashy tv, bliss after a long week!

xwonderingx · 27/07/2013 11:12

None of the above hun , I think I may have a water infection coming tho I can feel it I used to always suffer these years ago x

xwonderingx · 27/07/2013 11:13

Only size 8 no weight to lose I've put a little on in about 2 years that's it nothing changes at all

xwonderingx · 29/07/2013 10:24

Still no af here !

Cupcake11 · 29/07/2013 12:16

Only two days until your doctor will hopefully be able to tell you what's going on. Hang in there!

Wildwaterfalls · 29/07/2013 14:39

Yes x pls let us know what the doctor says!

Pxmx really sorry about your bfn... I had thought this might be your month. Fingers crossed we will all be successful in August, May babies will be lovely Smile

Doctor that sounds like an excellent strategy. Good luck on the caffeine front. I'm not a coffee drinker so lucky in that respect, but have the occasional diet coke which I'll try to cut out.

Feeling really annoyed still with my bfn (I know I know, get over it) particularly as I have been extremely ill / nauseous the past few days and feeling very bloated too. If it wasn't for the bfn and AF... Oh well

Doctorhappy · 30/07/2013 08:49

xwondering let us know how you get on, hopefully there is nothing to worry about.
Wild - I know it is so frustrating! But yes a may baby sounds lovely doesn't it... Fingers crossed for us all this month. Having a wee week off from thinking about it until we are back to trying again later this week!
Poopy are you still here? Have you told DH yet? Hope you're doing ok xx

Cupcake11 · 31/07/2013 11:32

Good luck at the doctors today Xwondering - let us know how you get on. Fx for you.

xwonderingx · 02/08/2013 00:00

just to let you no i went doctors he just told me wait longer well i just went the loo and ive come on im in shock why am i so late what was with the bad back pain and period pains when i was first due :-{ i could cry

xwonderingx · 02/08/2013 00:01

could there be something wrong with me! ?!?

Cupcake11 · 02/08/2013 07:55

X you poor thing, it's horrible when our bodies play tricks on us like that. I've found with doctors they rule out anything they believe to be serious and then don't bother to find out what it is - really annoying.

It seems that now your period is here they won't look into it anymore - let's hope it was just a weird one off. If it happens again next month make sure you go back and push for tests to find out if there's a problem.

At least now af is here you can get it out of the way and get going on what will hopefully be the cycle you get your BFP Smile
