Lucy planning on going to gp once ds's are back at school in a weeks time (obv if no AF before then). Have a strong feeling I am pregnant but you never know. Will test again in a few days time.

Ive been reading up on it (perhaps wishful thinking!) but it seems that quite a few women don't get a bfp until 6 weeks +. With my longer cycle (usually 37 days) I'm around 5 weeks. Here's hoping!!

LH1981 · 29/12/2013 12:50

Aw sorry knotty! Well, at least it's an answer, even though not the one we want! Xx

kmini · 29/12/2013 12:50

Who's all still in limbo?

HollyBen · 29/12/2013 13:24

Still limboing here ginger though I am pretty sure the witch is on her way

LH1981 · 29/12/2013 13:34

Yep limbo at crimbo

Keepingmyconvertible · 29/12/2013 13:57

Yep I'm in limbo too.....cd 25 today and 2 prev cycles have been 23 days, did a FRER on fri BFN and Tesco cheapie this morn and still BFN. I think the witch is late (and pissing with me!) just to make it even more painful than it already is as we will have been trying for a full year on the 1st with a MMC and lots of tears to show for it.....plus I have had a stinking cold for the last 8 days and feel like death, so my guess is that she'll show up at some point today or tomorrow.
Congrats to all the BFP's btw!
PS I lurk (a lot) but hardly post as once I start ranting I don't think I'll stop!

Gingerpanther27 · 29/12/2013 14:19

Cd36 here. Think I shall go bug the midwife tomorrow. Or maybe wait til after new year. I'm not sire yet.

Hi Everyone, just stopping by to see what you've all been up to since I got thrown off. A big congratulations to the BFPers and hugs to those who got AF.

Sleeping, so sorry to hear about your losses, keep strong and keep trying. Fx for you on the January bus, I'm sad not to be joining you but I think it will be March at least before we are able to try again.

SoMuch so sorry that your BFP didn't stick. I hope you have better luck on the January bus.

Bex congratulations on your digi-BFP! Hope you are enjoying the pre-wedding excitement.

Knotty sorry AF got you.

LH, Ginger and Holly fx for you that you get a BPF showing soon. How frustrating!

After a few difficult days suffering from low blood pressure and nausea, DP has turned the corner and yesterday we went for a lovely walk along the hospital corridor. He's finally off his drip and is progressing well. The Dr thinks he will be able to be discharged on Tuesday and I can't wait to get him home.

FX for those still waiting for their BFPs

spinningirl10 · 29/12/2013 15:38

Knotty....sorry af has arrived Thanks
Long cycles must be a nightmare.

Keeping....we don't mind ranting! After 12 months if ttc I'm sure you want to rant and we're always here to listen. Fx you get your bfp soon!

Boosk....good to hear your dh is making progress, bet he can't wait to get home!

HollyBen · 29/12/2013 17:14

Thanks for letting us know how dh is getting on boosk Glad he is doing well. fx he gets home on Tuesday in time for the new year x

Keepingmyconvertible · 29/12/2013 17:32

Spinning thanks! .......cramps have started so think I'll be joining the Jan bus tomorrow (so wanted to be preggers again before the end of the year as its all I ever think about!) my NY resolution is to chill out and relax, as I think I'll end up in a looney bin if it ends up being as bad as this year has!

lucyfluff · 29/12/2013 19:24

Good plan LH Grin let us know how you get on at the docs fingers crossed x

spinningirl10 · 29/12/2013 21:04

Keeping....sorry to hear that you think af is on her way. Hop over to the Jan bus when you're ready......2014 is going to be a good year I'm sureGrin

BexBoo12 · 29/12/2013 21:09

I'm so sorry, I have crappy signal up here in Bonny Scotland and it won't let me scroll back on messages...

I think it may have been LH (but I'm so sorry if it wasn't) that was saying you feel pregnant but having bfn yet AF is late? I just wanted to give you a glimmer of hope that my best friend has had 2 children and has never had a bfp - it's only ever showed up on a blood test. Even when she was in labour, the nurses laughed and had her poas and atill got bfn even in between contractions lol. I don't want to give you false hope, just trying to send some positivity xx

OP posts:
Gingerpanther27 · 29/12/2013 21:27

Would it be best for me to wait another week or should I get bloods tomorrow? Bex I live in Scotland so rubbish signal to lol.

BexBoo12 · 29/12/2013 21:39

Girls I'm sorry, I never really offered any details did I ... However there's not much to tell!!

Due to illness, dtd only on cd11,12 and 14 - and I think I ov'd on cd 12. I did use the pillow trick and I also used pre-seed which I would highly recommend. And that's pretty much it - faint, faint bfp on Christmas Eve, but a definite bfp on Christmas Day which was cd25.

Just goes to show it really does only take one strong little swimmer to go the distance xx
