Littleowlie about just a week according to the ovtest . I know it's early but the preg test said from 6 days before and my af due next thu latest . Used to be all regular but not it seems to vary a bit . Had a 23 d cycle and then a 28 d so go figure .

spinningirl10 · 06/12/2013 18:27

Nordic....it's probably just too early to test. Implantation can take a few days, fx af stays away for you, I would test again in a few daysGrin

ThisIsMeNow · 06/12/2013 19:12

No sign of Af still. Feeling very sick and bit of stomach cramps. Really hoping I ov'd late and that's what all this is about.
To be honest I just want to know either way. Never thought I'd have a bfn and late Af Confused

spinningirl10 · 06/12/2013 19:24

Thisisme....this waiting is so unfair!! I think we should all have regular 28day cycles with af arriving at 9am on the dot!!!Grin

Also ovulation should always happen on day 14 at a time we could specifyGrin

That really would make things so much easier SmileWine

spinningirl10 · 06/12/2013 19:24

Oh and will you test again in morning?

babyspice2501 · 06/12/2013 20:11

Spinningirl completely agree with you on that one!

Bexboo they say when you get the egg white stuff it means your fertile. Are you cd 6 today? When did you finish your last af?

Missvaughan85 · 06/12/2013 20:33

Evening ladies, been a manic day, and brother has just brought his new girlfriend round to say hello, very sweet girl, did a digi this morning. Bfn. But still no af and I've had the strangest twinge in my abdomen, work is usually a good place for me because I don't symptom spot as in busy doing clients hair, but today I just couldn't ignore them. And my daughter leaned on my stomach tonight and it hurt. Hubby has made me promise to wait another couple of days until I do another one, so Sunday Monday will be the next, if it's a bfn I'll put it down to another late period!!! Again!! And I just hope that the doctor will take it seriously if it is x x

ThisIsMeNow · 06/12/2013 21:11

Spinning yes I completely agree! Would make things easier (you'd hope anyway!) yes I will be testing again tomorrow and everyday until Af shows no doubt
Have had some spectacular cramping and lots of discharge (Shocksorry!!) but still no sign.
Off to lure DP upstairs for a good shag. If there's anything that will get Af going its that so we'll see! Grin

spinningirl10 · 06/12/2013 21:17

Haha thisismenow that made me laugh!! Dp is working and won't be home till the early hours, I've told him to wake me up Wink

MissV....really hoping af stays away and you get your bfp soon!

sazzlehopes · 06/12/2013 21:28

MissV so frustrating...hope you have more luck in a few days time.
Thisisme - yours are the sort of messages that make me laugh, no holds barred and far too much tmi - in a great way. I love the over share that goes on here. Hoping for you too that all is ok and the witch stays away!

sazzlehopes · 06/12/2013 21:34

onelife you ok? Not still under that fluffy blanket I hope... And m33r really hope you are ok, not seen you on here for ages but hope that's because you are just having a break from us crazies!

Spinning hope you've managed to dtd a bit more. Husband is out tonight and tomorrow so I'm planning a Sunday morning dtd to try and get in some swimmers before ov happens. I estimate it will be Wednesday I think.... But planning in keeping going this time eod after I get my peak on my cbfm.

ThisIsMeNow · 07/12/2013 07:05

Morning! Well, still no Af even after shagging!! Cant believe it. Also bfn?! Totally confused. Off out for the day so good luck to anyone testing today.

Missvaughan85 · 07/12/2013 07:39

This is, are theses af's post bc??

spinningirl10 · 07/12/2013 08:02

Morning all Grin

Thisisme....how frustrating for you!! Enjoy your day outGrin

Dp didn't get in till 3 and was too tired to dtdConfused not feeling very hopeful this month, just have to wait and see I guess!!

MissV, how are you feeling?

sazzlehopes · 07/12/2013 08:36

Thisisme - how odd? Are you officially late now and are you normally in time?

Spinning, don't worry about the dtd - it does only take one little fella to make it happen so you never know. I can't remember who it was recently on the nov thread got a bfp after pretty much just hitting roughly ov and only dtd twice in the whole month! And I've seen others say they pretty much dtd every damn day and still didn't fall preggo so I'm sure there's more going on every month than just how many times you dtd. I think you sound like you just caught ov anyway so even the once might have done the trick! Fx for you! So are you now in the 2ww?

spinningirl10 · 07/12/2013 08:42

Thanks Sazzle, I think I must be on the 2ww now! Hoping to dtd when dp wakes up just incase Grin

Where are you in your cycle? Are you close to ov?

Looking back at my app I realise my cycles really vary in length! Don't know why I thought I was a regular 28 day girl! So where I was expecting af on Dec 24th I'm thinking it could come earlier, at least this would get it out the way before Christmas!

ThisIsMeNow · 07/12/2013 08:53

Missv- came off cerazette in aug, had withdrawal bleed a week after stopping bc then have had 3 proper periods since.
Sazzle- periods not that regular but this is the longest it's been with no Af so I'd say I'm officially late but we'll see!
It's either just too early to test or it's one of those things and Af will find me in a week or so!

lucyfluff · 07/12/2013 09:08

Morning! ooooo very frustrating missv and this....hoping its just too early to get a bfp just yet and it will happen in the next few days. Grin Let us know how you get on!!!

We have a quiet weekend planned here, looking forward to chilling before next weeks craziness AND im not really thinking about poas!!! can you believe it?! I have a scan wed so will wait till after that before I do one Grin

Missvaughan85 · 07/12/2013 09:36

Morning girls, spinning no af yet, I've got the strangest feelings going in down below though, like nothing before, like its full low down, feeling a bit icky this morning aswell. Haven't tested again, going to see if I can convince DH to buy another test for tomorrow morning. I'm wondering whether my last test was an evap, which I've never ha before on a cb.
Just feel frustrated with af being late if it doesn't result in a bfn as it means I'm loosing more time to ttc. If it is late, I've lost a months worth of ttc. X x

mssleepyhead · 07/12/2013 09:42

Day 4 on the 2ww and I swear time has just stopped. Am munching on some pineapple this morning. I never knew the core was so boring to eat but it's my third day of giving it a go. I can't resist nibbling some of the flesh too though, hoping that won't be a problem!

Just thought this morning this might be our last Christmas just the two of us... I hope so : )

Morning everyone! Lots of busy passengers on this bus either POAS or DTD this weekend by the sound of it!

Bex - Scotland is beautiful, Gretna itself is so pretty. What a lovely day you are going to have!

MissV - the funny feelings sound very promising! I share your frustrations about delayed AF potentially, just want to know either way and not waste any more time if this isn't it!

I'm not POAS again until tomorrow/Monday unless AF appears this weekend. No sign still. Would just leave it until the middle of next week now, but would really like to know by Monday if possible for a particular reason, so it's worth a go I think.

Re delayed AF - has anyway had their cycle lengthen again after getting shorter/more regular in previous cycles post pill?

I can't work out if this is just that or not. Cycle 5 off the pill, 1 - 28 days, 2 - 53 days, 3 - 34 days and 4 - 34 days. I'm CD39 today.

Mssleepyhead dont worry ill be joining you in the 2ww shortly!! Got my second flashy face this morning on opk!!

Polkadot1 · 07/12/2013 11:09

missV that feeling does sound positive! Fx for you and other guys waiting to POAS!

sazzlehopes · 07/12/2013 12:15

Hey spinning, always good to squeeze in one for luck!
I'm cd10 and I normally get s peak on my cbfm between day 14-16 so I assume I'll ov a day after that. So thinking i'll be in the 2ww from next weekend roughly. Still a while to go!
