Waiting around 3 days late bfn and awaiting the af so I can get right back on with ttc! I have a monitor to try out and can't start til it comes!! Anyone else waiting the inevitable?

Hope yr docs appointment goes OK...

After yesterdays lunchtime 5pence piece spotting, absolutely nothing, maybe a teardrop of watery brown today...I even tamped up thinking she was on her way!!

Keep 'danger poking' lol, to check & its clear/slightest hint of peach

Come to think of it, my bad tummys gone & gone the other way today!

Can't get my hopes up....15dpo/cd32 tomorrow

Hope someone gets bfp/stronger bfp to cheer us up!! X

Okay so that's three faint positives in a row; 1 at 7am yesterday, 6pm last night then 7am this morning..... each positive seems to be getting marginally darker but still faint, it can take the full 10 minutes to appear although todays test I didn't have to squint or hold up to the light.

Only 2 days late but I did throw up a little this morning and my boobs are sore to touch so its all pointing in the right direction. I've bought proper tests this morning but DH has made me promise to wait until we can do it together.... thanks for the nice comments, please keep everything crossed for me as I will be for you all. Shock

bellaboo88 · 04/02/2014 12:45

I think after 3tests, its a definate mrss!!! Congrats! What's your stats? X

MrsS82 · 04/02/2014 12:59

Until its confirmed I don't think I will believe it. DH is the sensible one but its hard for me not to get carried away.

My DH and I are both 31, ttc #1, only second cycle. Married 9 months ago and besides opk this month we haven't done anything much different from normal, I think we've just been very very lucky.

Going to call the doctor in the morning for an appointment. Smile

MrsS82 · 04/02/2014 19:16

Hi Ladies, thought I'd update, just got a my BFP on a Superdrug own test, to match the 4 faint positives on the internet cheapies!!!! Think I can finally say it's happening.

Please update on your own, best wishes to you all x

dreamlullaby · 04/02/2014 20:47

CONGRATS MRS xxxxx
Im still getting nothing 5 days late (im never late)
think im going to have to book an app with docs

MrsS82 · 04/02/2014 20:54

Thanks I will keep everything crossed for you dreamlullaby

Groovester · 04/02/2014 20:57

Awwww, brilliant news Mrs - what an exciting time for you and DH. Pregnancy certainly is a bit of a rollercoaster (cliched but true) and then you'll have the whole new world of parenthood to look forward to. Great fun! x

I had GP this afternoon. He was not overly concerned really. Said I could wait a few weeks more to see what AF would do this month or take a blood test and find out for definite on Thursday so of course, I asked for the test. He has said if it's negative the likelihood of my being pregnant is unlikely. So more waiting. I don't feel pregnant like last time though so I'm not very confident really.

Until Thursday... Wink

Groovester · 06/02/2014 14:40

And a bfn blood test. GP said everything looks normal. So...cd 45. 18 days late. And not pregnant.

Marvellous...

Now have to wait and see. And agonise about the state of my cycle :0(

dreamlullaby · 06/02/2014 16:45

ahh groove hun x happy baby baking in feb x
im now 7 days late after the strange half a day watery brown one on 3rd jan do really 5 weeks late , rang doctor he called back as no app and told me to wait another few days and call to make app again
honestly worn out this craming has me so nervous

HRMumness · 06/02/2014 17:26

Another one signing in. Glad I'm not the only one in limbo land. Second month TTC #2. Last AF on 7th Jan which was much longer than normal, 11 days. I had been digging in the garden and felt a strange pain, then had the long period so was a little worried. Didn't go get a check-up though, although kicking myself for that now.
Was due on the 1st Feb, have had plenty of cramps, nausea, clumsiness, being short-tempered with DH, crying and tingling boobs. However, despite POA enough S to build an art installation, every single one comes back negative. Got a doctors appointment next week, so hopefully a BFP or AF shows up in the meantime.

Congrats to Mrs - that's so exciting for you.

Groovester · 06/02/2014 21:40

It is exhausting to be sure dream - I am now in limbo waiting for another few weeks to see if anything happens. If no AF shows then I will be back to see him pronto. Hope you get an appointment soon.

HRMum I feel your pain. I too have spent a lot of money on HPT - literally pissing our money away! I hope you get some answers soon. TTC is hard work - the symptom spotting becomes exhausting! x

Saharap2 · 06/02/2014 21:44

Groovester your situation sounds the same as me. I will be day 46 tomorrow and still no sign of anything :( I am thinking of trying to get a blood test too but if first response is bfn I'm sure a blood test prob will be too. Argh.

Groovester · 07/02/2014 09:08

I hear you Sahara - My GP gave me the choice between waiting or taking bloods and although deep down I knew the results would be negative, I still asked him to do the test. I hope you get some answers soon although everyone's advice is really "just wait and see..." Not helpful!
I have had some tummy cramping since last night. It may be AF on the way (but this is odd as I don't often get tummy cramping - always suffered from back pain instead with my mc)

At least it's almost the weekend!

Spotti · 07/02/2014 09:50

Hey, newbie here. Been lurking for a while but felt I had to post on this thread as I'm in the same boat as you guys and MY GOD it's frustrating!!!

AF was due here on the 6th Feb...I'm now 5 days late, took a test this morning and got a BFN :-(. I wouldn't be quite so miffed if AF just turned up and then we could get on with life again, but this limbo business is driving me nuts! I've already waited through the dreaded 2 week wait, and then 5 days more. Mother Nature - can't you tell me one way or another? I hate all of this waiting!!

Ok, rant over.

Has anyone else in this thread found out yet? Fx for those still in limbo x

Spotti · 07/02/2014 10:02
  • what a Wally! I meant 3rd Feb, not 6th. DUH! All of this counting is making my brain co fuzzed :-p
tinaw20 · 07/02/2014 10:07

Hey ladies! I'm having a hard time just now too! Been ttc for 6 months and my AF has turned psycho on me! Used to be 34 days regular as clockwork but now it's varying from 37-42 days! I'm on CD37 just now and had cramps, back pain and tender boobs for over a week now! Never got anything like that pre ttc! I think my body hates me :(

MrsS82 · 07/02/2014 10:26

Thanks HRMumness, got it confirmed yesterday BFP. Due Date 14.10.2014 so still very early days but we are both very very happy and excited, its also a shock as its been very quick for us. 2nd month ttc.

Keeping everything crossed for you all, its not over till its over Grin

dreamlullaby · 07/02/2014 16:58

Awe congrats mrs x so happy for you ,
I'm now 8 days late been to doctors and waiting on blood test 18th feb , another long wait

Saharap2 · 07/02/2014 18:49

I am moving house next weekend so I think I will probably wait til then and if still nothing try and get the tests when signing up with new GP if they will make me wait for the tests and not do them on the spot.

I tried to drink a pint today and just couldn't stomach it which is also something I had when pregnant before. Feeling a bit sick again today. When I was pregnant last time I didn't test until about 6 or 7 weeks because I just didn't realise (wasn't trying at the time) so I wondered whether mine just don't show up until late but I know that is a bit unlikely and there would be no reason to not show up on a test.

Just feeling miserable about it and had a little cry :( I know it sounds pathetic but it's so frustrating and I just want my baby and want to see that line on the stick!

Spotti · 08/02/2014 07:53

Sahara - I feel your pain! I hadn't realised how much I wanted to get pregnant until I saw that single lonely BFN line :-( Good luck with the move, and fx you either get a BFP or AF arrives sometime soon (ideally the BFP!).

Congrats Mrs on your BFP!!!

Saharap2 · 08/02/2014 15:11

Think AF is probably on the way. I started to get a bit of cramp earlier and felt really emotional, even started crying when I was just trying to sort out a refund Confused, then not long ago started to get a bit of bleeding/spotting... Pale pinkish brown and sticky more like what implantation bleeding is supposed to look like and not how my periods normally start, however if implantation is supposed to be 8-10 dpo (I think) then the dates don't really add up as I've just got back from a holiday staying with a friend without my DP, so if that was when I ovulated we would have missed it!

HRMumness · 08/02/2014 21:43

I got my AF within a day of posting on this thread. Disappointed but at least I'm not in the limbo land anymore. Have had two friends get their BFPs though which makes me so happy for them.

Groovester - I'm getting the bulk cheapie packs off Amazon now.

Sahara - Oh dear :( At least you know though? I ordered a bunch of the ovulation test sticks (OPK?) for next month. Hopefully mean we can focus our attentions Wink

Groovester · 10/02/2014 18:41

Does anyone have any news? Still no AF here. Have not tested since last Tuesday and not planning to for another week to ten days or so (when next AF is due.) that's if I have to, obviously.

Still frustrated! Confused

Spotti · 10/02/2014 18:58

AF got me yesterday :(. Quite sad really but at least I know what's happening now. Being in limbo SUCKS! Would be nice if this was my last one for a while...BFP I'm coming to get you!

Groove - how long has it been now?
