Jaykay if there's a possibility that your 8dpo today I'd test Monday (Yeh right I'd actually have tested already today lol) I reckon 10dpo would prob give you a result!

m33r · 12/10/2013 18:00

mama how are you? A couple of days past ov?

allchatnicknamesgone · 12/10/2013 18:00

jaykay haha. Seriously, my glob was so big I just kept staring at it on the tissue! It was so awesome I nearly showed DH but resisted. Wise in retrospect. I think you should hold out doing test. It so obvious it does our heads in more because none of us quite believe the neg result until our AF turns up. I'm actually 9dpo and not 8. Hooray. I'm due AF on Thurs and I've had a stern talk with myself and I'm not going to test until Saturday (i even have 10 new internet cheapies to test with)!!
I know you must be going insane. I really feel for you...

m33r good luck dtd! Sounds like you need to get at it. Although EWCM can make show several days before I believe.

m33r · 12/10/2013 18:04

Thanks allchat. I'm getting on it. Dtd today, tomorrow, tues, wed and fri is my plan. What do we think? Is missing Monday wise? Not sure if I should be trying to replenish swimmers or just go for it? mama I know you had same dilemma this month. I think you went everyday in the end??

m33r · 12/10/2013 18:05

jaykay also wise not sharing your glob. There's only so much they can handle. DH just got used to the word 'ovulate' !!! :-)

jaykay987 · 12/10/2013 18:05

Lucy - hopefully its all normal, bur Id definitely go to the doctor Monday if it continues

Jelly - I think Gilly is over on the June antenatal thread

M33/mama - Im due next Friday or Saturday. I might tell yield Wednesday (which will mean I cave Tuesday!) AAAGGHHH

I hate 2ww!

m33r · 12/10/2013 18:08

jaykay Wednesday is a good compromise; you can wait. You can do it. Do you have a digi to back up the cheapies? If you're going that early, the line could be faint. You'll need a digi on hand if it's good news! FX

VJONES1985 · 12/10/2013 18:12

Jaykay - thanks, I didn't realise that about b6!

mama31 · 12/10/2013 18:15

M33R I'm good thanks! 2dpo so not getting too eratic just yet.....saving that for next wkend :/ we Dtd on the tue, wed, thur skipped Fri and Dtd sat (today). Had pos opk on the wed so think we covered all bases! And really today Dtd was just for fun as I'm pretty sure ovulation has ended, cm is no longer the same and had dull cramps which have also disapeared.....now to wait.....

Off out to see the girls tonight so that will keep my mind off things! :) have a great sat night everyone! :)

JellyBeanDavey · 12/10/2013 18:26

Lol jaykay, I know but she pops her head in here too lol x

sazzlehopes · 12/10/2013 19:58

Ladies! Wow so much to catch up on. So sorry to those that AF has got and also to those symptom spotting! It's a nightmare the wait, every last twinge analysed! Feel for you all, and know I'm about to start all the same wait in the next few days!

jelly you're using the cbfm too? This is my first month testing it out, really hoping for some luck with it!

Nipping on as out with friends. Still no af or spotting GrinGrinGrin

HalfPintLulu · 12/10/2013 20:15

Fingers crossed then! I'm currently cramping at cd12 - DTD cd9 and and will pounce on DH later, I'm determined not to miss an egg!! He doesn't see to see the rush though and it all 'it'll happen when it happens' - he soooo doesn't get it! Pah!

VJONES1985 · 12/10/2013 20:17

I too have had some mild cramps today and I really really hope it's linked to the mild stomach upset I've got and not a sign of AF. I'm only 3dpo :-(

sazzlehopes · 12/10/2013 20:42

choccy my fingers are still firmly crossed for you!

MrsRandom78 · 12/10/2013 21:39

Heading home tomorrow after a week away - still got odd random pains in lower abdo and distinctly queasy feelings at strange times. AF usually appears late Sunday night - should I test when we get home of wait for first wee on Monday morning????

jaykay987 · 12/10/2013 22:23

Random - Id wait for FMU. FX or you!

M33r - yep Ive had them ready for months! First response, CB digital and boots own. None to be opened until I get even a vague something on an IC!Smile

jessieagain · 12/10/2013 22:33

allchat and jayjay I have had that glob of cm before, usually a couple of days after the time I think ov has happened and then all cm pretty much disappears. ( I only guessed at ov time basing it on mild cramps and ewcm, only started opks this month and have had no glob).

I have a question for those who check their cervix. How long are your nails?

MundayCakes85 · 12/10/2013 22:39

Crappy night shift made worse by AF showing up without warning. Oh dear, I'm off to lick my wounds. Good luck to everyone aboard, hopefully won't see many of you next month x

jessieagain · 12/10/2013 22:43

That is disappointing munday :( I hope you get your bfp soon Flowers

allchatnicknamesgone · 12/10/2013 22:45

Well re:cervix checking, I just can't quite do it! I only have shortish nails, but when I start to try to do it, it feels so scrappy I just cave in. Can't even shove a tampon up there without an applicator. How far do you need to go up before you feel you cervix? Is it obvious when you get there?

Been cramping most the night. They are definitely AF cramps though and not pregnancy ones. If I remember correctly AF is dull ache where as pregnancy ones feel more concentrated. Not so dull. More of a twisting feeling.

Sorry, just rambling.....

allchatnicknamesgone · 12/10/2013 22:46

That is shitty munday. Sorry. :(

jessieagain · 12/10/2013 22:49

lucy I remember reading that one symptom of ectopic is shoulder tip pain.

jessieagain · 12/10/2013 22:55

allchat that is what I'm wondering, how far in you need to go and if nails will get in the way. Mine are fairly long and are quite sharp (but for some reason I can't seem cut them very shirt as they are sensitive and start to hurt) so I have never considered checking my cervix because of them. I'm wondering if it is possible to check if you have nails.

MarlenaGru · 13/10/2013 00:11

Choccy same boat here. A full day late. No more than a tinge of brown blood on Wednesday. BFN on Friday morning. If no AF will test when home tomorrow night. Have boobs like melons though so I am definitely getting my hopes up. Fingers crossed for both of us!
