okay I hope I'm not treading on anyone's toes but as the proud owner of a July AF I'm posting early. Any seconders for a BFP filled August are very welcome.

Is my bday in August so fingers crossed. And by my calculations my ov this month should tie in with dh's 30th birthday.

so paws crossed

becky

excellent jomax
me either and i thought if we both go through it topgether we might resist the urge.
i am on cd 26 so i will hold out until friday and if a/f doesnt arrive i will test on saturday morning...when are you thinking of testing?! been having a few cramping pains today so not holding out much hope of a bfp
my cycles are 28 days what about yours?
i will only use clearblue digital too as had tonnes of bad tests with other makes.
how long have you been trying?

desperate2bmum · 01/08/2006 14:58

oh forgot to say i also ovd on cd 17
did a sneaky ebay test last night though which is supposed to be "super sensitive" but nothing. think they are a load of crap though tbh. gonna wait til the day a/f was due. last time i was pg i didnt test til i was a week late.

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 15:39

hey all

af just arrived i think two days early. joy. my only hope is that as its a bit brown, and i've had real tummy button pains plus the faint line on sat, .. maybe, just maybe, it's a light period or even implantation (dream on rebecca)

going to buy a test on way home if it hasn't really kicked in by then.

am i mad?

Shame for you Beccy - I hope it is only a little bit and not full-blown AF.
can you hold off and wait to test?
I would prob succumb and test anyway but try to hold out and save a bit of money if you can....

SOL - no such luck BDing earlier. Been shifting rubble and earth...not a particularily good thing to be doing when ttc but hey...needed to be done!

MrsMc - I did wonder if it was other bits too (but didn't like to dwell on it for too long!!!)....surely he won't feel an extra load of fluff there....??!!!.....just make sure he doesn't see it!!!
I LOVE my bedroom blackout blind!!!!

coggy · 01/08/2006 16:11

ooooh!! I may be having an ov pain!!!

Never really noticed before (always thought it was a case of wind) but would fit in with opk and low down just on my right side.....

.....how exciting......and yet strangly geekish of me!!!!!

trace2 · 01/08/2006 16:13

oh becky keep your chin up it may be nothing(hugs)

coggy (or soggy) wayhay go for it girl he he he

coggy · 01/08/2006 16:18

How about you Trace - any action again yet?!!

trace2 · 01/08/2006 16:26

nope we are just on talking terms, he did say we could tonight BUT its to dam bloody late, looks like i ovulated on sat night, as my temp went up on sunday

trace2 · 01/08/2006 16:28

sorry sunday night, temp went up monday SHIT SHIT thats makes it worse

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 16:40

trace... nightmare, feel for you. look at it this way, unless you'd made it up, if you'd agreed to have a quickie for purposes of getting preg, and you had, it may always have reminded you of a silly row..? does that help ? prob not much i know

coggy why are you shifting boulders & earth? is this a gardening project. black out blind sounds a good idea

hi to you too sol. any news?

gggrrr AF.. i strongly suspect. no chance i could hold back testing now. sodding clearblue digital says NOO

i felt different and everything this month! and the stupid bloody faint pink line on first response ..what's all that about

oh joy now i've had someone ring up and put phone down after heavy breathing. number withheld. they clearly don't know i'm a woman NOT to be messed with today!!!

love to all

DD1ofcolandgerry · 01/08/2006 16:44

Is there anyone on CD22??? I am going MAD. This whole ttc is completly taking over. I know I ovulated around CD12, and did plenty of BDing. Now I just want to know if Im preggers. Im so optimistic as I started clomid this month...also getting ready for a let down. I dont know how Im going to wait to CD28

Wannabe - my friends DH had practically zero swimmers and they now have a DS and DD, so defo get that second opinion..good luck

DD1

Bellie · 01/08/2006 17:23

ooh coggy - I am getting a pain down my left hand side only - never noticed before either - maybe we are ov buddies!!

wannabe - hope you take the postive stories on here and go for a second opinion and fingerts crossed

Beccy - sorry for you - especially as it has come early.

DD1 - I know what you mean about it taking over your life - dh thinks that it is more tiring than working shifts lol this ttc!

coggy · 01/08/2006 17:37

Bellie - what CD are you on. You may have been my earlier cycle buddy that I forgot about... sorry that doesn't sound very good of me but meant well!!!

Trace - when did you last BD and sometimes it's worth it the day after anyway...some people do that specifically to conceived boys.
Go for it - my new motto is NEVER give up an opporunity......you never know......!!

Beccy - yes, a garden project. In fact a garden project that was going to take 3 days......it's now been three weeks and still not finished!!!
Anyone would think we have acres of garden but it's TINY!!!!!!
The men keep blaming me for my complicated design!!

Bellie · 01/08/2006 17:52

cd 15

this is the first time that I have even thought that it may be ov pains - basically it is a low ache that is mainly down my left side, but a bit along the base of my back too - does that sound right?

Tili · 01/08/2006 18:37

sorry to hear about your disappointment Wannabe but get a second opinion, were theres a will theres a way, be thinking of you.
Beccy sorry to hear it seems your af has arrived my af is due thurs and since my brown discharge fri and sat there has so far been nothing so keeping my fingers crossed but dont really feel hopeful.
How are all the other ladies today then?

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 18:42

hiya tili

its just brown; nothing on my knickers, only when i go looking (sorry tmi alert)

praying its not af, certainly i have no pain

and first response helpdesk woman i phoned says a line is a line

fingers crossed for you too

OP posts:
Tili · 01/08/2006 18:50

hi beccy that was the same as me was just there when looking. Im really confused about it all as its my first month ttc after coming off the pill and i didnt have any of this when got pg with dd.
I think its just a case of hoping really isnt it? if my af doesnt arrive this wk im going to test sat or sun

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 19:04

i really hope you're there tili - so many girls do get preg first month off dont they. on otherhand, i guess best to keep in mind could be breakthrugh or spotting

why does it have to be so complicated..

OP posts:
Tili · 01/08/2006 19:13

complicated yes but bding is sooooooooo much fun thankfully!! lol

desperate2bmum · 01/08/2006 19:15

sum1 slap me plzzz!!!!

got in from work at did another YES ANOTHER ebay hpt and still BFN am due on on friday so i guess its all over now? or could i have a glimmer of hope?
i swaer i am not going to do another until atleast friday...or if jomax is testing will do it same time as her

sorry just needed to get that out..this 2 weeks is driving me raving bonkers

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 19:19

desperate

are you doing morning testing too???

i know how frustrated you feel

i dont think its all over.. no,

can't encourage anyone to wait as i am hopeless :-)

OP posts:
desperate2bmum · 01/08/2006 19:32

no i havnt been doing morning testing because i wake up bursting (poor excuse i know)
i know the best time is in the morning...im just so impatient..its cos i just wanna be pg again soooo bad and the not knowing is getting the better of me. i really didnt know itd get this bad and its only my first month ttc after m/c

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 19:35

bother dh calling me to help with dinner; its a bit much, he's done it for about the last week while i sit gossipping on here, one more night wouldnt hurt hehe

best wishes to all & fingers crossed for some more good news amongst the sad ones from today

try 2morrow morning desperate - have it to hand and good luck x

OP posts:
trace2 · 01/08/2006 20:28

becky there still is hope until you bleed more,it depends how late you ovulted

desperate2bmum it again depends how much hcg you got in ytour system

coggy we last did on friday not really ant good but i will not fall out on ovulation time again.

Bellie you should not be on here untill ovulation over he he

Beccy1974 · 01/08/2006 20:35

hallo trace.. fingers crossed for your friday sesh doing the trick

mine isn't even spotting. have delib not used anything, since 'finding' a bit of the brown tissuey stuff. and so far i'm okay not to need to use anything..

i'll prob wake up in morning with AF from hell

dh still being v pessimistic which is just as well as i dont know when to roll over & give up clearly!
