yayyyy mamma! Good luck with the next test!

We did 4 tests in total! First one Internet cheapie 4 days before AF due - not even a hint of a line - was gutted. Then a superdrug one two days before AF and got a faint positive (followed by another one a day before AF and then a CB that afternoon! )
So to those of you have tested very early - dont give up! (and trust your ability to know your body and when it is acting weird! )

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you all for your support! Really hoping to see you all on the ante-natal threads soon Thanks

Thanks gilly just after 6 months of ttc I just want my body to behave and I'm starting to worry I'm never gonna get my BFP (feeling sorry for myself today)

gillywillywoo · 19/08/2013 08:28

Oh science I feel the same sometimes. I just think.. There must be something wrong.. Or this is going to take forever... All sorts of thoughts and emotions!
Sad

Our time will come I'm sure Smile x

Science I've been trying pretty much the same amount of time as you although I'm only classing this as cycle 3 as this is the 3rd cycle of using digi OPKs... Anything before that was a waste of time because we were dtd at the completely wrong time in my cycle and never actually dtd around ovulation! We'll get there Smile

Morning ladies, I've not been posting much but I need your advice! Bfp/AF is due on wed, I tested last night and bpn Sad. Feeling very hormonal today and got some brownish discharge but not much. This is unusual for me, normally AF arrives in full flow iyswim! Do u think I'm still in with a chance or is this just AF on her way?

gillywillywoo · 19/08/2013 09:47

No idea littlemisspear ... Grin
but GOOD LUCK!!!!!! Smile

Congrats to all the positives over last few days!

I have good news and bad news. Good news is pretty sure I ovulated yesterday or day before as temp rise today. Bad news is haven't dtd since Friday as had really bad stomach cramps / feeling sick yesterday. Still got today altho less than yesterday. Do you think all this means unlikely to get my bfp this cycle now? Feeling rather sorry for myself Sad

Beautifulboy1 · 19/08/2013 11:17

Hi all, think I have had a few symptoms the last few days but completely different to what I had with DS which is why I am wondering if they are symptoms at all!

Bit of advice please and opinions welcome! I never had a positive OPK this month but sure I felt ovulation, we dtd 3 times over that time and I think I am 10 dpo ish?!

I have had mild headaches, constipation, very vivid dreams, very tired at night, but then I get in from work at 8.30pm and asleep on sofa by 10. I have also had to get up at 4.30am as I'm busting for a wee!

Anything there or am I clutching at straws???

CONGRATULATIONS to all the ladies with BFP, may you have a happy and healthy pregnancy xxx

gillywillywoo · 19/08/2013 11:23

Sounds promising beautifulboy! Smile Good luck Thanks

I had a weird nights sleep last night. Kept dreaming I was pregnant.. Woke up... Went back to sleep.. Then another dream based around sing pregnant.. Woke up... Back to sleep... Another dream about being pregnant!

This went on all night!!!!!!

gillywillywoo · 19/08/2013 11:25

That's meant to say being not sing!

Gilly I dreamt that my teeth fell out on Sat night, which I'm assured is a common pregnancy dream to have. Haha right. More likely I'm nervous about my impending dentist appointment ??

DisneyDiva87 · 19/08/2013 12:11

I had a dream last night Gilly about being pregnant and taking my CB digi test and everything, I'm hoping it's a sign that a wee ovum has been paired with a spermatozoa

Beautifulboy1 · 19/08/2013 12:31

Hope so Gillywillywoo! I have read a lot about vivid dreams and a lot of pregnant women dream about water! With my DS I never had dreams about being pregnant until my third trimester I just had unusual dreams and I could absolutely remember what they were about (hense the vivid, lol)

I had a dream 3 nights ago about the tide coming in towards me?! who knows, can't test until 26th but hopefully its my bodies way of telling me it will be a BFP! X

MrsB2013 · 19/08/2013 13:05

Hi ladies, is there room for a newbie on this bus?

Im 32 and DH is 31 TTC #1 cycle #1 bfp due around the 26th

Have been on the pill for 12 years, came off in July and had normal withdrawal bleed, and started TTC straight away.

Not sure when af is actually due so guessing around 26th. Have been taking folic acid and vit D (is there anything else I need?)

Fingers crossed Smile

MrsB2013 · 19/08/2013 13:12

Oh and congrats to all the lovely ladies who have got their bfp's

gillywillywoo · 19/08/2013 13:22

Hi mrsB Smile I'll add you to the list later unless someone beats me to it.. Out shopping at the moment trying to find a dress for my best friends hen weekend next week! Hoping I will get my bfp this weekend as well.. That would be funny! Will have to ask for non alcoholic cocktails and pretend I'm drunk lol Grin

Hi Disney!!! Smile

I have vivid dreams every night and always have done for years and years so I really can't use that as a symptom!! Grin

I caved. Superdrug POAS at lunchtime. Not a sausage. I won't be doing that again until Saturday (AT LEAST) Confused

rockyroller123 · 19/08/2013 13:46

Oh nooooo, its gutting isn't it but defo still early days so your still in for the month.

I was strong and have stayed in the office at lunch. Had some more cramping this morning and got sore boobs but nothing else.

It's the waiting thays annoying - its early days ttc so im not going to be upset if af arrives. Im just not very patient haha. Grin

snoozysleeper · 19/08/2013 13:52

Congratulations to all BFPs recently

I'm going to have to vacate my place on the bus...AF got me overnight so I'm moving buses Sad

Good luck for all still waiting

JellyBeanDavey · 19/08/2013 15:11

I can't keep up with all the threads.

But I will say, I have been reading about all you girls that have been on Yasmin and that are struggling to get a normal cycle. I will say this out of experience, it may be just a coincidence but I was on Yasmin, I reached 102days in my cycle, I went to my doctors and begged them, they put me on a course of microgynon 30 (it's the pill with the less bad stuff lol) and since then I got my first ovulation and I am now feeling my hormones going again, sore boobs, bloated tummy etc etc i haven't at this for a very long time. And if I get my bfp at the end of the month... Well what can I say, I'm sure it would have been the microgynon Grin

JellyBeanDavey · 19/08/2013 15:20

Congrats to all the bfps too :) I really hope this is a lucky bus!!

Also I have 24 ic opks if anyone wants them? I don't want anything for them either Grin
