Mama, you may be psychic- I'm on my second large glass of wine. Inhaled a milky bar (don't believe in nuts taking up chocolate space!) and am about to order an Indian! Also sat here with a hot water bottle and a cat warming me up nicely Smile

Oh choccy I really hope things work out for you, thinking of you. Mama so sorry the spotting has started, I can't believe it after that test. Lucy, so glad af turned up for you after so long (although a bfp would have been ideal at a least you can get cracking again now!) Congrats to the bfps too, glad to see some good news here too.

Well I got my blood results back from Wednesdays test (off the receptionist!) who said that my hcg has fallen from above 500 to 98. So that confirms it for me. I need to speak to the doc on Monday about the hormone/thyroid/iron results to check if theyre normal, but the hcg confirms I'm definitely off the November bus. I'm gonna hop across to the December bus now but thank you so much to you ladies for your support and kind words in what was a horrible week for me and dh. Wishing all of you the best of luck and hope not to see any of you on the December bus!

I'll definitely be popping my head in to see the rest of your bfps come rolling in!

sazzlehopes · 15/11/2013 19:40

Wow so much to catch up on, and my goodness that was a lot of homework for a bus driver, conductor hat off to you choccy you made it look easy keeping track of things!

Right firstly the good news. MrsC and Funky that is great news. Especially funky after waiting so long, it gives me and fellow 12th cycler m33r hope this month.

And sad news. Oh mama and choccy no, no, no. That is so unfair - why is this ttc lark so cruel? I really feel for you both. Mama I'm glad you are being so upbeat about it here, and I'm glad you are sorted with Wine and chocolate for the weekend. You really do deserve it. And choccy, I've left you in the bfp bit for now. I won't take you out until you know for sure, or until you ask me too. I hope you are getting some rest and you get answers you need next week. Sending you both hugs xxx

mama31 · 15/11/2013 20:20

Thankyou sazzle x

mama31 · 15/11/2013 21:16

So sorry to hear that imaginary!!! Hugs to you x

Writerwannabe83 · 15/11/2013 21:36

Imaginary - I'm so sorry to hear your news but I'm glad you are getting straight back into TTC again and I hope you have more success next month x

Choccy, I really, really hope that your scan shows everything to be ok next week. Tuesday must seem like an absolute age away for you, I hope you manage to get through the weekend without too much anxiety and my fingers really are crossed for you x

Lucy - congratulations on AF!! Who'd thought we'd be saying things like that on this thread?? I hope you get your BFP soon and you have a healthy pregnancy x

mama - sorry that your spotting has arrived. We all understand why you are feeling disheartened but it's good news that your blood results came back as normal. Just stay positive, it will happen for you x

ImaginaryHat · 15/11/2013 22:08

Thanks. Have seen a fair few ppl get a bfp the cycle after a chem/mc so I'm hoping to be in the same boat with a bit of festive luck.

Mama how are you doing, has the spotting got any heavier? I think people can still get spotting and go on to get a bfp so dont count yourself out for sure just yet. Will keep my fingers crossed for you for a bit longer yet for sure.

cottonwool4brains · 15/11/2013 23:41

Well that me out, Af here early

funkymonk · 16/11/2013 00:48

Thank you ladies! sazzle and m33r you can do it!

Sorry to those af has got and sympathies to choccy. Look after yourself xxx

m33r · 16/11/2013 09:45

imaginary so sorry to hear your news.

choccy I really feel for you. I really do. It must be awful.

m33r · 16/11/2013 09:48

funky brilliant! A 12-monther to give me hope!! And Christmas Eve ! Fantastic! Can you give me details - dtd days; did you do anything different? Any symptoms? Congratulations!

sazzle where are you in cycle?

m33r · 16/11/2013 09:49

mama you're still in til AF shows. Hang in there x

msbsleepyhead · 16/11/2013 09:54

10 days past ovulation today (I think) with AF due on Wednesday. No symptoms really, but yesterday I was very swollen in my lower abdomen - felt very tight. Apart from that I'm still eating the same, no sickness and no sore boobs. So I don't think it's happened for me this time. I'd rather test and get negatives than find out when I go to the loo, I think, so might test tomorrow. Is that too soon? I'd rather not test on a week day and then have to go to school and teach! Have cheaply strip tests from the internet but the sound on the packaging like they're pretty sensitive...?

spinningirl10 · 16/11/2013 11:12

Morning all,

Thinking of you this morning Choccy.

Feeling a little delicate this morning as I had a few too many wines last night!! Smile

lucyfluff · 16/11/2013 12:31

M33r...when is your AF due?? (couldnt see you on the list?!!?) Smile

mama31 · 16/11/2013 12:33

Thanks ladies, I had a very comforting night last night with nice food and drinks.

M33R when the spotting starts I always know I'm out, it's always at 10dpo and comes with sore boobs and horrendous af cramps so I'm def out. Full flow will drag in as usual, prob be here Monday! Then it's on to cycle 6!

Choccy really hope you are ok been thinking of you and praying for you x

funkymonk · 16/11/2013 13:27

m33r we did nothing different to any other month. Ov day 17. Dtd day 13, day 15, day 17 and day 18. We always do smep but after the 2 days in a row we rarely make the 3rd and then I don't see the point in skipping a day and then doing it again.
I used conceive plus as always and took pregnacare conception as always.
Luck of the draw!

funkymonk · 16/11/2013 13:27

Sorry mama

SaraRB123 · 16/11/2013 13:49

Hi ladies...I'm still lurking just kept my head down for a while with some not so nice stuff going on here but I have been keeping up to date with the thread. I'm thrilled for those with BFP's!!! Well done and a huge congratulations to you all xxx

Mama, I'm genuinely gutted for you, I was really hoping this was it for you. You deserve it so very much xx

Choccy, I'm praying for you that all is ok xx

I'm sorry for this majorly stupid question, but id never ask anyone this question face to face so I've no choice but to embarrass myself here!! Came off the pill 3 weeks ago, no AF as yet...so is this cycle 1 until AF shows up, or do I count the cycle after AF as my first, meaning I'm not really in any cycle yet?? So confused, sorry for the stupidness xx

Howly · 16/11/2013 14:16

Hi all

Just to update you all after my 'I'm imagining the line on my preg test' moment the other night, still no AF and I'm sure I had a feint line on a IC using FMU this morning, definately darker than the other night, even my DH who originally laughed at me said he could see it, but he said he won't believe it until its either a darker line or we do a digi (but he won't let me do it til next weekend))!! The suspense is killing me and he said how frustrating it is too in limbo!

Writerwannabe83 · 16/11/2013 14:22

He won't let you??

I'd tell my husband to bugger off if he said that to me and then get myself off down to the shops ASAP Smile He's the one making you both stay in the limbo he is finding so frustrating? Tell him you appreciate his opinion about waiting but you are going override ignore it Grin

sara - there isn't a rule as such. I imagine most women would class it as cycle 1 though as you are still trying to conceive and having unprotected sex. Good luck by the way!! Smile

SaraRB123 · 16/11/2013 14:31

Btw, I've just uploaded a pic of today's, yesterday's and Thursdays opks, no line Thursday, the faintest of faint lines yesterday, darker line today but still not as dark as control line. Are these evap lines or is today's a positive??

SaraRB123 · 16/11/2013 14:31

If someone could have a look id be grateful Grin
