LH I really hope its not a chemical and its just that its not picking up on whatever brand you've used most recently. As others said, maybe try a frer or other brand and see what they do.

Owlie sorry af got you, get a big bar of chocolate and some wine to cheer yourself up Flowers

Choccy, no spotting is good news, glad the b6 seems to be working for you. Ironically last month I took it only after ov, and only about 20-30mg/day per day. 100mg made my boobs tingle!

VJ hope your lp gets a bit longer this month, I know its driving you crazy, and mama hope uping the b6 works for you and you avoid the spotting too!

Missvaughan85 · 04/11/2013 22:12

So much is happening here tonight, Jessie, I an so sorry to hear your news and I'm hoping for you that it's just a blip and things turn out well for you!!!

Imaginary sounds extremely positive!!!

I'm feeling jealous of you all tonight, even those who have had af arrive, I know it sounds crazy!! I'm 10 days late, still getting bfn's!!! Definitely starting to feel as though af has got lost in the mail!!! Feeling grumpy. Sorry for rant. X x

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:15

Thanks imaginary!!! I feel this bus is off to a great start!!! :) thanks for sharing the insanity ladies....it means a lot :)

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:17

Awh MissV I am sure you are cracking up!!! I would be climbing the walls I'm impatient waiting for a few days let alone that many with af gone awol and no bfp yet! I can't even imagine how you would carry on each day as I'm sure it invades your every thought!!! Hoping you get an answer soon!! And obv hoping that it's a BFP :)

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:19

Imaginary I forgot to ask....how is your DH doing with this possibly (hoepfully) being a bfp for you?!!!!

ImaginaryHat · 04/11/2013 22:20

Thanks grobags. I actually think 2-3 would theoretically be right as I ovulate quite late in my cycle. Annoyingly last month was the only month in the last 8 or so that I didn't use opks (was even doing them for a bit before ttc!) so I don't know exactly when it was, but I guesstimate around 15th October which would be nearly 3 weeks ago (if I'm counting right?!). However, I'm totally baffled by what's happened so just gonna see the doctor and keep testing. Thanks for your advice x

Missv Im glad your doctor was nice today but sorry you are feeling glum. Hope you either get your bfp soon or af turns up to put your mind at rest (preferably the former!)

ImaginaryHat · 04/11/2013 22:23

Mama dh is cool as a cucumber, as expected! He balances me out as I'm the one who gets all crazy and he's so chilled about everything (which can be annoying but its very calming usually!) He just says go to the doctors and well take it from there. He has said if it is positive he's really chuffed but doesn't want us to get carried away until we know for sure one way or another. Glad I've got you ladies to be crazy with, he's so bloody rational!

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:31

Imaginary calm and rational is great and just what you need from DH in this situation but yes I know what you mean, it's great to let the crazy thoughts loose on here!!

I am much more calm and rational in real life.....really....i am!!!!!

ImaginaryHat · 04/11/2013 22:36

Yes I like to think generally were all pretty calm but ttc has sent us a bit nuts! Glad he's here just being normal, will definitely help if its not good news.

m33r · 04/11/2013 22:40

Imaginary - it all looks good to me. Get to the docs first thing in the morning and they'll tell you for sure but it sounds absolutely spot on to me.

MissV you must be going NUTS! I would be beside myself. I was 30 HOURS late this month and was so hopeful but deep down knew and just found it really hard so you're allowed to rant and we're here to listen in as always.

Jessie you have inspired me to get out of my slump. So I have bought two books - one about science; one about the 'mind' for conceiving (apparently 'The Secret' for babymaking); a BBT; cheap opks; a selection of expensive opks AND some preseed. I will not be able to afford a baby if I get pg this month as I have spent all my money! Also hoping family and friends don't mind me making their Christmas presents this year ... well maybe its not quite that bad but I have gone for it. I am throwing everything I have at this for the next three months (three months is an arbitrary period of time but thought it would help me to see and endpoint even if it is just psychological...).

Jessie I am sending you all the positive thoughts I have.

m33r · 04/11/2013 22:41

I am also calm and normal in RL... well, at least, I used to be before ttc!

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:46

M33R! How very proactive you have been! Super impressed ;) go for it!!!! :)

MundayCakes85 · 04/11/2013 22:46

I just wanted to day how sorry I am for you Zjessie- I can't imagine how you must be feeling. Have got my FX that you can see some positives from this and get your happy ever after.
Imaginary- congratulations, how fab. And congrats to any other BFPs I've missed, this bus is moving fast!
FF has moved my BFP date due to crazy temps, so now have no real idea where I am in my cycle. Think that crazy bug is catching- I cried watching the Strictly results tonight!!

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:47

One day.....we will be calm, rational....normal again....and will have our lives back!!! when we get our BFP's!!! Roll on that day!!!

ImaginaryHat · 04/11/2013 22:48

Thanks m33r.

Now that you've spent all that money you're bound to get your bfp the very next cycle!

Right off to bed to try and sleep. Will report back after docs tomorrow.

mama31 · 04/11/2013 22:50

Can't wait to hear imaginary!!! Really hoping for good news! :)

jessieagain · 04/11/2013 23:01

Grin m33r! Good luck!

I have to say I haven't felt very inspirational at all this evening. Cried at the gps and on the way home and then all through ds bath/bed routine. He kept laughing at me and copying me, poor little thing I hope I haven't confused him, will have to try harder tomorrow.

I'm on the opposite crotch watch at the moment Hmm

m33r · 04/11/2013 23:05

jessie you are doing brill! You make me think of the aptamil adverts which say 'mums you're doing great!' Hang in there x

leezl · 05/11/2013 00:03

VJ I've got no fucking clue :( but I think I'm gonna have to try one of these ovulation kits to find out what the hell is going on down there, if anything.

Arrrggghhhh.

englishteacher78 · 05/11/2013 06:16

Wow! I've been away come back and the bfps are rolling in. I'm still on the bus at the moment but not planning to test until Friday.
Our friends who got married in July have just announced they're having a baby. I'm really happy for them (but a little jealous too) when I told DH this he agreed.
Beginning to regret postponing starting TTC BUT, it would have been a bad idea with the London Marathon and a honeymoon to South Africa!

Choccywoccydodah · 05/11/2013 07:09

Spotting and frankly fucked off

OP posts:
sazzlehopes · 05/11/2013 07:21

Oh no choccy. Is that one day later? Is it any improvement at all?

DinkyMole · 05/11/2013 07:24

Oh no Choccy Confused How many dpo are you? I really hope it is just spotting and stops soonThanks

I had a lovely BFP dream, big "PREGNANT" on an oversized digi test and then woke up and it wasn't real. Hmm

Temp up slightly again this morning. BFN (but only 7dpo, 11 day LP) so wasn't expecting anything. Really bored now. Finishing my assignment, seeing my therapist and getting my hair cut today. DSs operation went really well, thanks for all the well wishes yesterday Smile

sazzlehopes · 05/11/2013 07:27

Just reading back and wow what an evening. Jessie I'm so sorry that things seem to be heading that way for you. Really hope it's not but keep us posted and sending you hugs x

Imaginary I can't believe what is going in with you! It's madness! Hoping its good news from the doctors today.

M33r - great plan. Throw everything you've got at it. Family and friends won't mind handmade for Xmas. I always think people go far too nuts at Xmas and its healthy to cut back. Also babies don't have to cost loads. You can buy tonnes of stuff or you can get hand me downs and loans etc. I think it's worth it now, hence why I've thrown money at the cbfm! Save later! Stuck to your 3 months. If nothing book a wonderful holiday for you and your OH and enjoy yourselves x

lucyfluff · 05/11/2013 07:35

Oh no choccy Sad thats so shit. Hugs and chocolate...well after a cuppa this early.

Im sorry to hear your news Jessie too Sad let us know how you get on at the docs. This ttc business can be a complete bitch at times. Hope you have a sticky bean soon Smile

Imaginary!!!! thats fab news...good idea to get it confirmed but thise digis and pretty sensitive Smile Smile Smile how exciting!!!

Still no AF here, im in limbo alongside missv I think!!! 5 days overdue........
