Hi HalfPint I used the CB digi opks for the first time this month and got my bfp! I got mine from Amazon, they were about £20 with free delivery, so cheaper than in Boots etc. Don't worry if you don't get the standard 2 days high and 2 days peak on them.

sazzlehopes · 27/10/2013 19:29

Halfpint. I fell pregnant with ds the first time using the less fancy cb digital opk, just get either a circle or smiley face. This time round I've invested in a cbfm as after 11 months ttc I felt it was worth it for me as you can sell on eBay for a good price! And I am so fed up with waiting for baby no2 I'd read good reviews on amazon. However it's pricey ad maybe not for everyone. Maybe worth trying for one month the cb ones and see how you get on?

sazzlehopes · 27/10/2013 19:34

Everyone waiting for AF. It's boring isn't it not knowing! I'm on major knicker watch. Nothing yet.....

m33r · 27/10/2013 20:24

half re the ICs until you get an equal to then switching to cb smiley (the ones without the memory); that's what I do. One pack of digis lasts me two minth's usually! Happy poas-ing.

Yes it is soooooo boring. No symptoms at all here. Nada!

panicmechanic · 27/10/2013 20:34

Just dropping by to say hello and wishing all luck with their BfPs - especially to my fellow 11 cyclers. Btw to list all my symptoms for 3-4days prior to my BFP xx

Newbie784 · 27/10/2013 22:06

Just checking in with everyone, how are you ladies left on the bus doing?

I'm 9dpo today, symptom spotting again! Lol Had really vivid dreams last night and then woke at 7am feeling dizzy and sick! Went back to sleep for 2hrs and when I woke up the dizziness was gone but I still felt sick.

Feel ok again now but have a feeling of pressure down below and the occasional twinge.

Question is when do I test! Lol

Missvaughan85 · 27/10/2013 23:20

Newbie, my abdominal pain feels more like pressure, it actually feels like I've got a urine infection on the way.

Yeh this waiting is killing me. Especially after a bfn yesterday I just feel like I'm just waiting for af as I feel it's in inane this month, I was four days late last month so feeling miserable and like perhaps I've missed my O window completely, even though we dtd from day 7 through to day 21 with a dtd break half way through.

JellyBeanDavey · 27/10/2013 23:57

Hiii everyone,

sorry i haven't been posting. As much as i love posting, keeping off it has made time go quicker and stopped me thinking so much. Today is my AF due date but if its anything like.... any of my cycles lol then it wont be on time or not even close.
I went to bed over an hour ago because I was shattered, i just got up because i couldnt take it anymore. I'm feeling really weird. i have like a pain down there, in my underwear area LOL (i cant really explain where precisely) and a little bit at the enterance (but not as often as the other pain) and im feeling a little bit sea sick, not that i even know what that feels like. just plain odd. i just want to sleep but i just cant get there. been up twice for a wee that was barely nothing.

i will test in the morning if i remember. I hope that all made at least a little sense.

JellyBeanDavey · 28/10/2013 00:01

Oh and lots of cm today. Tmi

Newlywed2013 · 28/10/2013 00:13

Thanks for the advice, i think i will wait until tuesday morning! I have started tracking what my cycle is like! I used a superdrug one to test! if i get even a feint line i will get a digi test! Its so frustrating!!

It has been a huge help following this thread! even though its hard to keep up lol :)

Kemie · 28/10/2013 07:37

Hey all so now 1 day late and POAS again (superdrug) and still BFN! Wtf is that all about Grrr, dunno what to think now, just gonna have to wait it out Confused

Newbie784 · 28/10/2013 08:38

Morning ladies, well it looks like AF got me! Been trying to convince myself it may be implantation bleeding as i would only be 10 dpo today! However I know it's not, it's only a bit there when I wipe (tmi sorry) but I am feeling AF type cramps!

Needless to say I am in floods of tears and am working from home today. I know it's only cycle 2 of ttc for me but I have this underlying feeling I am infertile so that's what gets me so upset.

I don't know what to do, think I must join the November bus. Sorry for the depressing post just really need some support and DH had already left for work when the witch arrived and don't want to call him to tell him :(

Newbie784 · 28/10/2013 08:41

Sorry in my depressiveness I forgot to reply to others posts.

Don't give up MissV, it only takes 1 so don't torture yourself! It's not over until AF arrives!

onelifeonechance · 28/10/2013 09:05

Aw newbie, so sorry to hear that and just wanted to extend a virtual hug to you as I so know how you're feeling Thanks I was there last week and know that at the moment it feels like you won't feel any different but I promise you you will in a little while and you'll be ready to try again. In the meantime though be kind to yourself and treat yourself to things you enjoy, nice bubble bath always helps me Smile

sazzlehopes · 28/10/2013 09:16

Newbie I'm sorry it is very frustrating and totally normal to feel low. Have some time off here for a few days and enjoy simple things - tea, cake, wine and sushi helps me! Then join the nov bus for support and hopefully you'll be third time lucky!

lucyfluff · 28/10/2013 09:18

Oh newbie :( hugs to you...it's early days and don't be worrying unnecessarily about being infertile. I'm sure everything is all fine :) Can understand how crap it is though getting the witch!!!

We will be waiting on the November bus for you :) and in the meantime treat yourself to some cake!

everyone else hanging on good luck!!

sazzlehopes · 28/10/2013 09:19

jellybean - did you test?

I held off today. I feel grumpy, so I think Af is on her way... Panic, you fellow 11 cycler - were you saying in your message you were going to share your symptoms that you had just before your bfp? please do if so, and when you tested!

sazzlehopes · 28/10/2013 09:20

Kemie - I've no idea what it is all about. Yes I guess wait it out with me and MissV!

Missvaughan85 · 28/10/2013 09:39

I am resigning myself to the fact that I donk think there's a bun in my oven at all and just my body playing silly buggers, still got a full ache in pelvic bone, similar feeling to a uti, but I haven't got one. I would know as I have had them many times before. So I know the difference. Still no af, that's two days late, haven't got any tests to do today. Might do one in the morning, if this pain continues I think a trip to the doctor is in order.

mama31 · 28/10/2013 10:00

Awh ladies hang in there! Really hope for a few BFP'S!!!!

Newbie sorry to hear that :( treat yourself for a few days then come join us on November bus! It is early days for you but I know how you feel it's so frustrating!!!

Newbie784 · 28/10/2013 11:16

Thanks onelife, sazzle, Lucy and mama. Cake, wine and bath sounds like a great plan for tonight! I will join the November bus shortly, hearing all of your stories helps and the support we give each other!

AF has still not come on in full force though which is giving me false hope (just a bit of pink on the toilet paper mixed with EWCM). Aah need to spot obsessing and move on to the next bus!

Will still be popping onto this bus to cheer on the last few testers of the month. Let's have atleast 1 more Bfp on this bus to see October out in style!

Best of luck ladies hope you get you Bfp and won't have to join the Nov bus! X x

panicmechanic · 28/10/2013 11:36

Hi Sazzle, I tested on the day AF was due and got a BFP (however with dd I only got a BFP 4 days after the due date). On this cycle. I felt out of sorts from 7dpo, I got cramps, a lot of CM from 9-11 DPO but from 10dpo I didn't feel pregnant. From 12dpo I got cramps like the AF was on its way do got very down. On the day my AF was due my CM was a darker yellow colour. I didn't get sore boobs or bleeds. Hope that this helps x

sazzlehopes · 28/10/2013 11:55

Newbie - are you sure it is AF. It sounds like it is early for you to get it? And if it's not in full flow are you 100% sure it couldn't be implantation or anything?

Panic - thanks for that. it does help. AF still hasn't shown up and she is due to visit today. If nothing I will test again tomorrow morning. Did you you IC to get bfp or another brand?

panicmechanic · 28/10/2013 11:59

Hi Sazzle, I used a clear blue digital. Good luck, I will keep checking in x

sazzlehopes · 28/10/2013 12:01

Thanks Panic. She's a big tease old Auntie Flo. I'm hoping so much me and M33R can join your lucky 11 this month. It would be pretty special!
