Oh no honey! Sorry af got you :(

Bex where are you??!?!?! Have you dipped yet???

BexBoo12 · 23/12/2013 08:55

Sorry ladies!!! I didn't dip til just now, I couldn't bring myself to do it, now I wish I hadn't...BFN Hmm

babyspice2501 · 23/12/2013 08:56

Girls id just like to share with you what I did when ttc as I think I fell quite quickly after coming off the pill

The last pill I took was the sept one and when I was due my af in oct I had nothing. No symptoms of af no bfp either! So when I was a week late I took some chinese medicine to bring on my af and it worked. I came on the next day! Then I stopped taking chinese medicine and took agnus castus until I got a solid smiley on opk and then 10 days later got my bfp!

I just thought id share with you as im shocked I fell so quickly and im 30 in a few weeks aswell. Also my ovaries are SLIGHTLY polycystic although I dont have the syndrome thank god! But I hope this helps and brings some hope and comfort for you all!

babyspice2501 · 23/12/2013 08:59

Oh no bexboo :( but it could still be early if your due af on 29th so still hope for you! And keeping fx!

kmini · 23/12/2013 09:17

Bexboo, I agreed, if af due 29th, then def way too early to discount. Don't give up hope.

spinningirl10 · 23/12/2013 09:18

Oh Bex, sorry you got a bfn....still early days for you though!

Baby, thanks for the deets. How lovely it happened so quickly for you Grin

Sleepingstarsmommy · 23/12/2013 09:27

Bex don't be upset. It's just too early. Just consider it as practice - we'll have the perfect technique in time for our BFPs Grin

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 09:31

It is ok bex - still early!

I have not tested today, saving for tomorrow. I don't feel pregnant so not holding out any hope - have no symptoms whatsoever! But whatever the outcome xmas day is so near now all will be ok!

Honey sorry af turned up early - but you are being very sensible - 2 cycles in is no time at all to be trying. Have a lovely xmas eating and drinking all the fun things and good luck in January!

babyspice2501 · 23/12/2013 09:54

Thanks spinning! Thought it would be nice to share :)

Boosk · 23/12/2013 10:16

Hang in there Bex, we're not out until the witch arrives! Smile

Gingerpanther27 · 23/12/2013 10:36

Af still not really happening! Grrr probably messing with me to give false hope. I've not been on contraception for almost 4 months and cycles pretty much normal post birth and everything. Might poas tomorrow as it removes temptations cos it's my last one

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 10:43

ginger - hopefully not af and you still in with a chance! defo poas with us tomorrow...

ok so now i'm getting my hopes up with the fact that i have no pmt yet and normally i'm a crazy b*tch a few days before af shows.
Please someone send me a slap for raising my hopes just an hour after my last sensible post!!

Gingerpanther27 · 23/12/2013 10:51

Dr Google says implantation bleed...so how long til bfp if it's right?

Boosk · 23/12/2013 11:00

Sazzle slap! get a grip! Grin

I might need a slap too, I'm getting twitchy about tomorrow in case it's a bfn. Going to grab a FRER on the way home so I have the best chance as saving digis for later and Tesco ones aren't early enough. So that'll be FOUR different types (including ICs) in my bathroom cupboard! Oh my goodness, I have a problem!

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 11:22

Ha Boosk - thanks!
I too feel twitchy....i also have a frer though, the only thing I'll believe at this stage. So tomorrow it is then - FX for us all!

Ginger - not sure - does dr google say anything about how quickly levels rise? I'd say test tomorrow anyway for fun! When you due af?

EnglishGirlAbroad · 23/12/2013 11:22

ginger i got my bfp 2 days after implantation! poas! poas!

lucyfluff · 23/12/2013 11:28

Cant wait to hear any news tmrw ladies Grin Grin how exciting!!!!

Sending festive bfp vibes !!!! x

Sleepingstarsmommy · 23/12/2013 11:29

Question regarding tests. I only have ICs which are supposedly sensitive to 10mIU. Are FRER more sensitive than this?? I was hoping to get away with just my ICs and then get the clear blue conception indicators to check my levels week on week.

Princesscrystalx · 23/12/2013 11:39

Oh honey sorry to hear af arrived Sad at least you can have a glass of wine!... Or a bottle haha
bex dip dip!!! Grin im joining the party tomorrow, getting mild cramps though.

Boosk · 23/12/2013 12:14

Sleeping, I'm not sure, think I'm just going to pee on all of them and hope for the best.Smile

Gingerpanther27 · 23/12/2013 12:24

Yesterday at latest sazzle but I'm getting minimal spotting mostly when I wipe Blush maybe I'm just clinging on to last chance saloon cos got to put ttc on hold for a few months due to wedding

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 12:42

Ginger - if nothing more major than spotting by tomorrow then perhaps test? Have my FX for you.

Sleeping - i think the ic are as sensitive as the FRER but i always hear of ladies trying to see lines, whereas people seem to have no problem with the FRER? Maybe piac and if you see something on the ic then dip the fancy one?

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 14:23

11dpo i think...testing tomorrow and now twinges like ov pains in right side...i am aware i am clutching at straws whilst driving myself quietly bonkers here! Confused
how are the rest of the xmas eve testers doing?!!

kmini · 23/12/2013 14:38

I think I am going to do a xmas morning one - 1 day bf AF is due for me. Anyone want to join my party? :) If we get BFN...Fizz, Cheese & Salmon too for Xmas. Yum yum!

sazzlehopes · 23/12/2013 14:47

kmini - i can't work out whether to do one xmas morning or xmas eve...af is due xmas day and i'm pretty regular with it starting in the morning!
