Thanks Writer usually I am pretty cool headed but a tiny bit of pink has reduced me to a looper!

It's not even really bleeding, it is/was like a film of EWCM but had a faintly pink/peach colour to it. You'd have missed it on anything but white loo roll.

HollyBen · 16/12/2013 10:22

somuch like everything withe ttc implantation varies from pg to pg. When I spoke to EPU at 5+3 they said most likely implantation so wait 48 hours

With every few days that pass I'm finding out something else that is annoying about pregnant - like just how much my bump impedes on me doing normal things! I can't take my socks off anymore, my DH has to do it Grin trying to wrap Christmas presents yesterday was a total nightmare because when I'm kneeling down I can't lean forwards Grin

SoMuchFruit · 16/12/2013 10:24

Thanks Holly. Am like a crazy lady. Sorry everyone Blush

Will calm down, take it easy today and go to the doctor later as planned.

Writer I didn't do a Digi in the end. Just a FRER and some Tesco tests. All were positive (although one or two faint) so I didn't bother with a Digi.

spinningirl10 · 16/12/2013 10:31

Oh dear Writer.....won't be long till you can't get your knickers on!! GrinGrin

Writerwannabe83 · 16/12/2013 10:45

spinning - don't joke about pants, I've gone from normally buying size 8 pants to now being in size 14........and I'm having to admit to myself that it's time to buy some size 16's Grin I have already put on 1st and 10lbs, it's very depressing, lol Grin

lucyfluff · 16/12/2013 11:01

Sorry writer that made me laugh Wink oh the joys of pregnancy! I remember DH painting my toenails last time!!!

kmini · 16/12/2013 11:29

SoMuchFruit, I am sure I read in the Toni Weschler book, that there are lots of reasons why you get a bit of pink-tinging at any time. In fact I was just chatting to someone last night about a similar thing, who thought she had miscarried in the early weeks & she is 17 wks pregnant now. Keep the faith!

Boosk, thanks for you reply. I hope you husbands op goes ok & its not too serious. We are in a similar boat, having a good friend's wedding in australia in nov next year & have to take a hiatus to allow for that. Its so frustrating!

I tried the opk last month, and got nothing for the entire month. So either I didn't ovulate or the tests don't work for me. Hence, why I went back to the CM & Temping, and now I am even more confused :).

Happy POAS for those due to today. x

LH1981 · 16/12/2013 11:45

Hey Ladies,
Haha writer I remember those days...wait til you get stuck in the bath for the first time, good times! Xmas Wink

tmf have you been to the docs already? What did they say? Or is it today you're going? I wouldn't worry, I think if it's just a tinge and it doesn't develop into anything then it's perfectly normal. I miscarried a few years back at 10weeks and it started out of nowhere with bright red heavy spotting and got heavier very quickly.

Well I'm just cruising for the next few days waiting to test again. Due AF tomorrow but no symptoms except cramps but even they feel different to normal. I'm getting in a bad mood with all this waiting!! Pretty sure if it's not showing up properly on a test by now then chances are slim. X

Witch25 · 16/12/2013 11:55

Hey ladies.

Well I poas today got a bfn. No af yet though and its cd34 for me. So I'm not out yet but l'm starting to gather up my bags to get ready to get off the bus. Here's hoping the bus will keep on going with me on it! Fx to a good month for everyone.

kmini · 16/12/2013 12:20

Fingers crossed Witch25! How long is your cd length normally?

Boosk · 16/12/2013 12:50

thanks kmini, annoying that opks didn't work out for you. I hope you get a handle on things, it's tricky trying to work out what your body is doing.

hopefully DPs recovery will be speedy and if no luck this time we can try again in the new year.

good luck to you this month, when are you planning to test?

thank you Mama, sorry, I didn't spot your reply earlier.

kmini · 16/12/2013 13:03

I think I'm 3 dpo & AF due Boxing Day. 10 days of torture and symptom spotting ahead!

spinningirl10 · 16/12/2013 13:07

Writer at least you have a reason to be putting on weight! I've put on half stone since summer!!! Keep thinking it won't matter it I get a bfp!!! Going to start healthy eating......but will leave it till after Xmas nowGrinGrin

LH, it's frustrating isn't it but didn't you get a faint line?

LH1981 · 16/12/2013 13:19

spinning yes, there was a faint line but very very faint so I could be imagining it - dh couldn't see it (although he is rubbish with the whole ttc thing, said to me last night 'maybe we should DTD again to give us a better chance' and I actually think he was being serious!)

I'm going to try and wait a few more days and if no AF then I'll test (AF due tomorrow).

Boosk · 16/12/2013 13:20

me too Kmini, I'm 3dpo with AF due on 25th. fx for Christmas bfps!

Witch25 · 16/12/2013 14:00

Hi kmini

I'm normally about a 30 day cycle so I'm really hoping this time. I'll just have to keep waiting. I'll test in a few more days if nothing happening. Wishing us all Christmas bfps!

spinningirl10 · 16/12/2013 14:11

Wit ch....good luck to you Grin

LH...haha my dp has no idea about these things either!!! If I'd got a bfp I was going to wait and do a digi on Xmas day and give it to him! Although without his glasses on he wouldn't see it anywayGrin

spinningirl10 · 16/12/2013 14:11

Oh and LH I'll keep my fingers crossed for youGrin

Witch25 · 16/12/2013 14:24

Thanks guys.

Spinning, that's what I'm really hoping to be able to do too. Although not sure how romantic a pee soaked stick as a Christmas present is Smile

kmini · 16/12/2013 14:43

Pea soaked stick as xmas present...v unromantic!

Witch25 · 16/12/2013 14:46

But it's the thought that counts ha ha

sazzlehopes · 16/12/2013 14:50

Woah ladies - so much to catch up on. This thread moves so fast!

Mama my DH has just had a sperm check. It was ok and not embarrassing. Pot at home and just dropped off to the hospital. We did try the internet kit but the line was pretty dubious i'm not sure i'd have trusted it...

Barmy and Choccy I'm so sorry for what is happening to you both I was so unaware of how often you can experience a chem pg or mc - and it is so sad. It makes me nervous about early testing now...

spinnin i'm glad to see the poas has commneced! good luck every day and keep us posted. any other ladies nearing the end of the 2ww good luck and fx for you too!

I like others are waiting to give DH a pee soaked stick on xmas day - well you can always dream hey!

sazzlehopes · 16/12/2013 14:51

Also, has anyone seen or heard from m33r? I hope she is ok.

sazzlehopes · 16/12/2013 14:52

Also due to a manic day at work i've haven't looked back properly - do we need to update stats??!!
