Treacle really hope he's right! I really did have so many false negatives with one of mine when I was pg. it felt like it went on forever. But then of course it went amazingly quickly as I was already a couple of months In by the time we got a positive. So I'm really hoping this is what's happening to you. All pregnancies and all bodies are different. Just v frustrating.

sazzlehopes · 20/02/2014 10:04

Exciting stuff happening here this morning. Hope the doc is right Treacle and you don't have to wait too long for a bfp. Will you just keep testing every day? Did he give you a limit like if nothing come back and see in a weeks time?

Impatience congrats - faint, but i see it! Hope it gets stronger for you soon!
Good luck to Mango and anyone else testing today/tomorrow!

mama31 · 20/02/2014 10:10

Congrats impatience! Great news! A well needed bfp for the bus to cheer everyone up!

Treacle so hoping you get your bfp soon! How frustrating for you! Hoping the GP has given you a follow up appointment though and the limbo doesn't continue too long for you! Did he say just to keep testing every day??? So easy for them to say! They don't have to break the bank on preggo tests every month! Haha!

Mango was it an opk or preg test you dipped this morn??? Good luck for tomorrow's poas!!!!

No news here, start of the 2ww....just twiddling my thumbs really......

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 10:27

mama I did both. Negative ic pregnancy test but a very faint line on the opk. Will keep my fingers crossed but not hoping too much just yet. Hope the tww goes easily for you and you get your bfp.

Newbie784 · 20/02/2014 10:30

Hi ladies, congrats on all the Bfp and possible Bfp! Sounds promising all!

I need some advice please I am freaking out. I had some brown tinted cm last night and again this morning just when I wipe. Not spotting just in my cm (sorry tmi) I just noted a spot of brighter colour. Terrified this means I'm out.

Been so convinced this month, I am approx 16dpo (only a 10 day lp normally), last tested at 14dpo and got bfn. I'm really upset, do you think I'm out? This is my 6th month ttc

EnglishGirlAbroad · 20/02/2014 10:31

Congrats Impatience!!!

Treacle, thats great news. I'd have been pissed off at at least not getting a blood test. Will you go back if they keep coming back negative?? Fingers crossed you get a nice clear positive soon!

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 10:33

Ooh fingers crossed for you both Caged Mango and Treacle!

Treacle you must feel so excited and frustrated and fatuous at the same time! It does sound very promising though and I think like the Doctor says a blood test would have most likely taken as long to come back with the results as now just waiting and taking another FRER or IC over the next couple of days.

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 10:35

I'm not sure what that means newbie, have you tested again today? Are you sure you know when you ovulated and it could maybe be implantation?

ItsChristmaass - Sorry to hear your update – Fingers crossed the provera works for you – It will happen!

impatienceisavirtue and Treaclepie – I’ll keep you both on the waiting list for now – scared of tempting fate for you – although I definitely see a line, impatience! Hope it gets stronger day by day and keep testing Treacle Thanks

Newbie784 · 20/02/2014 10:42

Thanks for the quick response zermatt. No I am not exactly sure when I ovulated as ran out of opk's before I got a positive so up to cd17 I had negatives.

Latest I have ovulated since I started trying is cd19 however I have moved house this month so I'm wondering if that has thrown my cycle off at all. Either way I am on my longest cycle ever (even before trying as I tracked my cycle then anyway just not ovulation) of cd35 and I have never gone past 32 before.

I haven't tested today I was scared to due to the brown cm, I will test in the morning with a FRER.

The reason I am worried it's not implantation is that's what I always tell myself when I start spotting on 10dpo and then get full blown AF the next day. This is different though it's normally red and causally spotting rather than brown cm (sorry tmi).

I think I'm just looking for honest advice and experience so I can prepare myself.

Thanks for reading through my ramble and any advice is appreciated! Thanks all x

missmrsmummy · 20/02/2014 10:44

AF is unmistakeably here! Good job I didn't hold my breath overnight!

New stats

missmrsmummy TTC#1, cycle 4

Good luck to the rest of you!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 20/02/2014 10:47

Newbie, is it possible you ov'd later and this is implantation? Implantation is usually brown. When i had it with the bfp i mc it was brown, only really when i wiped and lasted 2 days. I got the bfp 3 days later. Maybe leave it til the weekend then use the frer.

Newbie784 · 20/02/2014 10:48

Sorry to hear that missmrs

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 10:56

Sorry to hear that Missmrsmummy, sending you lots of good luck for March xx

KittyVonCatsington · 20/02/2014 10:57

Oh bum. So angry for you missmrs - As it's early in the day, share a mid morning Brew with me. Flicking through the Curling, This Morning and The Wright Show-putting off writing more PowerPoints for next week. I'm here if you need to talk.

OP posts:
sazzlehopes · 20/02/2014 11:24

Newbie i don't think you can do anything except knicker watch. Grin If it stays brown and spotting only it is a more positive sign so like the others say wait it out til the weekend and then test. FX for you!

Oh missmrs, sorry to here that. Heaps of luck for a successful March.

Mama! Eeep the 2ww. Let's try and make it go as quickly and as fun as possible! I feel for you - I hate waiting!! x

mama31 · 20/02/2014 12:17

Sazzle I know! The 2ww is awful but I will be ok once I get to the wkend as have some nice plans to keep me busy! Date with DH on Fri then he's off sat so we will have a nice day together to keep my mind off things! But once it hits Sunday I'll be 7dpo! And I just know ill turn crazy! I am pre empting that my first poas will be on Sunday! I know I have no willpower and that Sunday is too early....but I think it will happen.....

toots123 · 20/02/2014 12:28

Sounds good treacle!! :)

Congrats impatience x

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 13:55

Sorry to hear that missmrs :(

Thanks everyone! Yeah he said give it a week and test again. If still nothing in a few weeks come back.

Been to see my pregnant friend and friend with a 5 month old today. Torture when I'm in limbo lol.

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 14:34

I'm out, AF is here, 2 days early, even shorter cycle than last month, prior to ttc I always had 29 or even 30 day cycles so not sure what's on with that. Is an 11 day luteal period a bit too short or generally considered ok?

Anyhoo, off to the march bus, will check in too see how rest of you do, wish you all loads luck xxx

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 15:05

Oh no zermatt
Good luck for March! :)

CursiveLetters · 20/02/2014 15:17

newbie Brown is good! I read that brown is old blood, red is new blood. And it's very common to have some spotting around the time your first period would be. Hold out hope! No way to know until you get either your period or a BFP. But I'm feeling v hopeful for you!!

I'm now officially late, and still haven't felt like a period is coming aside from a bit of v mild cramping this morning. Tested on first pee and got a BFN. Will go to superdrug today and get another cheapie for tomorrow morning as long as my period doesn't show today, fingers crossed.

KittyVonCatsington · 20/02/2014 16:50

Terrified today. This time last cycle, I got some spotting before AF arriving in full force the day after. Keep checking - I'll do myself a mischief if I'm not careful! Current symptoms: waves of nausea still, episodes of cramping, can often feel my heart beat/pumping. If these are just symptoms of AF, I will not be happy having them every month [ grin]

OP posts:
LemonDrizzler · 20/02/2014 17:43

I'm out - shortest bus journey ever! Really gutted as moving on to month 8 and I feel like something must be wrong. :(

Had just really got my hopes up this month with such a long cycle. Sad times.

Anyway enough misery! Good luck to everyone else - hope you get your bfps soon!

Wineandchoccy · 20/02/2014 19:46

Evening Ladies, I thought I had ovulated 6 days ago because I had stabby pains and lots of ewcm but I found some opks in my drawer and did 1 yesterday and there was a faint line and today a really dark line so we are going to dtd again tonight. We have dtd every other day since cd8, I'm knackered!!

I'm on cd26 so looks like I will be on the March bus for my bfp - let's think positive Grin
