Spinning yes!! Im always posting from my phone aswell! Lol

Also id deffo pounce on him after a few drinks and just seduce him on ov days!! Wink wink :)

I'm here, I'm here!!! Xmas Grin
Sorry, been awol yesterday, Xmas is crazy town in my house this year!

I tested yesterday eve with a CB and BFN. Think I must have been imagining the other lines Sad
The strange thing is, I'm late. I have no sore boobs like I normally have pre-AF. I've been really hot and sweaty, where I'm normally freezing! And, I had such a rush of nausea this morning I thought I was going to hurl!

Just want AF to show her ugly face if she's going to so I can get it out of the way before Xmas!

Sorry for all those AF has already pounced on.

SMF - any clearer lines??

Spinning - I wouldn't tell him then, just try to go with the flow? This TTC business is hard work! xx

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 12:29

LH....sorry you got a bfn but still sounds positive! I've been suffering from nausea as well, thought I was going to have to leave ds's carol concert the other night. Very odd! I've had 3bfn now though so I think I should just accept I'm not pregnant this month and try for a more relaxed approach next cycle!!!Grin

sazzlehopes · 18/12/2013 12:39

LH - how late are you? It still sounds promising if you ask me...FX that she doesn't show and you get a bfp. Maybe test again if no AF next monday?

Spinning - I say I'm going to be relaxed every month and I start with good intentions then go crazy in the 2ww! I just caught myself going through my old diary to see what I was doing in the week leading up to my first bfp with my ds...to see if I remember feeling any different or whatever. Obviously I couldn't - I never had any symptoms with my first, so I don't know what I was expecting to find!
I think I'd be calmer if I wasn't here on MN the whole time, trouble is I like it too much to go away but it certainly fuels my crazy lady side!

Kaliani · 18/12/2013 12:41

Spinning, are you 11 days dpo like me? If you are then theres loads of time yet! Don't give up, I need my POAS buddy!

LH1981 · 18/12/2013 12:47

I know what you mean spinning, it's too easy to subconsciously convince yourself that you are, then be disappointed when it turns out you're not. Oh well, still got Xmas celebrations to look forward to so it's not all doom and gloom Xmas Smile

Sazzle, I'm on cd38 now. Last few cycles have been 36 days. Does anyone know how late ovulation can occur? I'm thinking that by now, if I was pregnant then it would HAVE to show up on a hpt, as normal ovulation is usually cd14-cd18?

Sleepingstarsmommy · 18/12/2013 12:54

Ladies I didn't get a BFP until 4 days after AF was due last time despite testing everyday for about a week before I was convinced I was pregnant right up until the night before I got my BFP. I was waking up in the night and feeling hot. Husband came in from work at midnight one night and my first response was I feel sick which I don't think was the welcome he was expecting. Due date came and went and was still getting bfn, then one evening I had really bad back ache and cramps which I thought meant AF was about to appear. Even padded up in readiness. But morning came and AF was yet to arrive so being the POAS addict that I am I tested and got my BFP!!! I have been pregnant 4 times, and I have only got a BFP once before my due date so ladies hang in there!!

SoMuchFruit · 18/12/2013 13:52

oooh LH, how late are you!? Wait 24hrs and test again ?

Spinning the more I read, the more I realise that most people don't really seem to get their BFP's until 13dpo+. At 11dpo it's still a couple of days outside normal implantation ranges (I've been reading up!) and if no implantation, no HCG and no BFP so hang in there. FX for you.

I am fidgeting. Looking for ways to while away 45mins. I missed a call from Doc as I was driving just before the surgery closed for lunch Angry now I have to wait until 2.30 for them to open again... tick, tock, tick, tock..

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 13:52

SLeeping....I love that story, thanks for sharing. It's amazing how it varies for everyone!

Kali, 12dpo I thinkGrin

Sazzle....I deffo wouldn't be so crazy if it wasn't for MN, I have thought of stepping away from here but I really like it and we're a friendly group....i do get carried away with all the crazinessGrin

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 14:02

Oh somuch how frustrating!! Not long nowGrin

sazzlehopes · 18/12/2013 15:20

I know spinning - i've thought about it too - but the idea of actually now getting a bfp and being able to share with you guys would be so great! So here i will stay infecting normal ladies with crazy ways! Xmas Grin

SMF - how did you get on? Really hope it was good news lady xx

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 17:26

Somuch....where are you? Really hope it's good news for you.

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 17:33

Haha Sazzle, yep I'm staying put too. And hopefully you'll get your bfp on Christmas Day Grin

Off out soon and the weather couldn't be worse!! Strong winds and rainHmm

BexBoo12 · 18/12/2013 17:39

Hi everyone, sorry I've not been around, some horrid things going on at home - unfortunately the in laws are not very nice people and are trying to cause trouble for us. They have found out about our secret wedding Hmm and are not happy. Anyway...give me a few hours to catch up!!

While I'm catching up, can I just say congrats to any new bfp's, and sorry to all those AF got (but at least lots of drinkies now!) and good luck on next cycle...xx

One thing I've noticed is smf is waiting for blood results, but that was HOURS ago!!! Where are you smf??!! X

Choccywoccydodah · 18/12/2013 17:48

Hi all, anyone know if there's a January bus?
Congrats on all the bfps Smile

babyspice2501 · 18/12/2013 17:55

Ah bexboo!! I know someone whos had terrible inlaws!! And have been treated appallingly by them! I know how bad they can be and how stressful they are but I dont think people realise how serious the problem is unless they have been through it or seen others go through it so big hugs to you and keep your head high!!! Its your wedding and your day so you can do what the heck you want! takes a breath, and passes you a large vodka

Choccywoccydodah · 18/12/2013 17:58

No worries found it Smile

babyspice2501 · 18/12/2013 17:58

Choccy I think there is a jan bus but im not sure what the title is? I know someone on this bus said its quiet on there so they are sticking on the dec bus for abit longer? Cant remember who it is now?

babyspice2501 · 18/12/2013 17:59

Ah cross posts! Lol... good luck on the jan bus choccy!!

spinningirl10 · 18/12/2013 18:01

Oh Bex, I'm so sorry about your in laws causing problems for you. I fell out with some of my family when I left me ex dh. It was such an awful time, some of them still won't speak to me, their loss!! Please don't let it ruin your wedding day xx

Choccy yes I think there is a January bus, so sorry you are having to board itHmm wishing you a bfp sticky bean in the new year xx

BexBoo12 · 18/12/2013 18:27

Oh girls it's been terrible. Families can be awful at times can't they? I think it may have calmed down a bit now...or is it just the calm before the storm?? Thank you for listening, I just love this page Grin x

On other news I'm 7dpo today...how early to people usually test? I'm trying my very best to hold out til nye (obviously if no AF by then) as would love to find out on our wedding day but doubt very much I will be able to wait another week and a half...the IC's are already shouting me from my dressing table drawer x

babyspice2501 · 18/12/2013 18:33

Bexboo im 7 dpo too!! Im going to test on 23rd and if I get bfn ill do it again on xmas day. Maybe try and hold out till 10 dpo?

BexBoo12 · 18/12/2013 18:36

BexBoo12 · 18/12/2013 18:39
