Cd16 and STILL getting highs! I can see a faint second line in the stick so think LH is on it's way up. Come on peak...

EnglishGirlAbroad · 06/03/2014 07:39

Sorry AF got you Linda Hmm
Fingers crossed for you MrsYSmile

lindamagoo · 06/03/2014 07:40

Thanks Choccy, a Christmas baby would be amazing, my boys are both June so would be a nice change Smile Fingers tightly crossed for everyone else still to test, sending lots of baby dust your way x

MrsY87 · 06/03/2014 07:46

Choccy- No never had it before, not quite sure when I ovd but most probably about 10-12 dpo

Serenitysutton · 06/03/2014 07:53

Sorry to those having a hard time.

DH and I have just had "words" he was out last night and now tonight- I have no problem with this BUT I will
Ovulate moment and I need him here! Anyway obviously I am totally taking the fun out of it but he's booked us a lovely spa weekend this weekend to have lots of sex but doesn't seem to get that it needs to be done at a certain time. He can spend the rest of the month out!

LemonDrizzler · 06/03/2014 07:54

Thanks for your messages guys. Really nice to have your support. :) I am half accepting and half in denial. Blush I will test again at weekend and if that is negative or more faint then I will know for sure and can stop holding out irrational hope!

Sorry Linda and anyone else af got. Wine and chocolate is the only way ;)

Fingers crossed for some more bfps on this bus soon! X

Allthequeenshorses · 06/03/2014 08:19

I'm sorry everyone and I know this is probably in the wrong place but I don't have anyone else to ask and I am abit teary. I have had a tiny bit of bleeding last night then nothing all night, but more this morning (just when I wiped-sorry). I have a bit of a sore tummy but nothing major. As you all know this is my first pregnancy and I am really scared. Is this normal? I assume not but I just wanted to ask someone. It's not heavy like AF but it is certainly there.

Lemon, I hope you are ok and I have fx crossed for you.

Choccywoccydodah · 06/03/2014 08:22

MrsY, I'd say it could possibly be implantation spotting. Af is usually 12-14dpo on a regular cycle, so if you can hold on I'd test Saturday at the earliest.
You normally get a positive from at least 4 days after the spotting.
Fingers crossed!

MrsY sounds exciting! I'm sorry queens, I don't know. But hope all is well x

Choccywoccydodah · 06/03/2014 08:24

Allthequeens it can be normal to get spotting around when your af is due. However if it gets worse phone the gp or epu. How far gone are you?

OP posts:
Choccywoccydodah · 06/03/2014 08:25

Is it red blood?

OP posts:
Allthequeenshorses · 06/03/2014 08:39

It is like pinky red rather than dark. I think I am about 4 weeks. Got BFP on Monday night after faint lines all weekend. It has stopped again now, just seems to be when I wipe and I am sorry because I know that is TMI. I have dr apt on Monday.

Sparrowlegs248 · 06/03/2014 08:41

Morning all, theres no way i can keep up with you lot!! Sorry to those having a bad time.

writer omg!! I can't believe its inly 10 days! Wow i remember your bfp! Must have been my 1st or 2nd bus. How lovely to hear of your progress. Wishing you a easy relaxed birth. :-)

Well, cd 12 for and coming to the tww. Missed 4 days of dtd but have put in a better effort than usual and hope to manage the next couple of days too - 25/26 days cycle and not sure when i ov. Fx! Will be going to docs if no luck this time.

Sparrowlegs248 · 06/03/2014 08:41

P.s. Any more bfps?

LemonDrizzler · 06/03/2014 08:47

Allthequeens I am no expert but have read up on this a lot lately and it seems like a bit of light spotting is pretty common in early pregnancy. Try not to worry too much and just tell your doc on Monday. Could you get an emergency appointment today to put your mind at rest?

lindamagoo · 06/03/2014 08:50

Allthequeens I had spotting early in my first pregnancy and everything was fine, my crazy little 4 year old is sitting next to me as proof Smile Of the bleeding gets heavier or if there are any clots then you should defo get checked out. Hope your ok x

Allthequeenshorses · 06/03/2014 08:50

Thanks Lemon, I'm sorry to bother you with this. I have called but they do not have anything at all. I spoke to nhs 24 and they just said that I have to wait till Monday. It is very light as I usually have heavy af iyswim. Gah, never ending worry at the moment. Emotions are all over the place.

Allthequeenshorses · 06/03/2014 08:52

Aw, thank you lindamagoo. That is reassuring. I just feel so clueless and upset this morning. I have not told anyone other than DH, maybe a good thing, but feeling abit lonley. I am so grateful to all you lovely ladies, it is such a comfort to have somewhere to turn. x

cth1982 · 06/03/2014 08:52

Morning Ladies,

Lemon really sorry to hear that - hope you are ok hugs

I'm still waiting for ovulation - it seems like it is taking forever but CM is def. getting wetter and more stringy/gooey so I'm taking that as a good sign!

Any other ladies with PCOS on here? This is my first month of properly charting to make sure I am actually ovulating but last month I was late but had what I think now were ovulation cramps etc. so hopefully that is a good sign I actually ovulated!

broodysnoopstie · 06/03/2014 08:59

Calling all POAS addicts. what type of cheapy tests have you bought? And from where? I would like some sticks to pee on that don't make feel like I'm peeing on a fiver a time! looked on Amazon but some say they give you a faint line even with water. I couldn't cope with that!

spinningirl10 · 06/03/2014 09:05

Broodie....I use the cheap ones from amazon and I don't get a line at all. Pee'd on one yesterday and not even a hint of a line!!

lindamagoo · 06/03/2014 09:10

Broody I've always used the cheapies from amazon and only ever had a line when I was defo pregnant...

MrsY87 · 06/03/2014 09:12

Thanks for the advice will try to hold out until Saturday but trying not to get my hope up too much!

Allthequeens hope the spotting stays away now . Hope your ok.
