Hoping AF stays away

Don't feel you have to reply I am just venting!!! CD22 of 28 day cycle and having cramps on and off since CD19. First month we have given ourselves a fighting chance (DH works offshore) - hoping AF stays away and praying this could be Implantation - anything anyone can say to encourage me not to give up is obviously welcome! SmileThanks

I know, you spend so much time being told as a teen that you can get pregnant so easy. But it's not as easy as they said lol.

Stay positive, it'll happen. We just need lots of sex and that's that lol!

any updates ladies?

Fruityb · 23/03/2014 21:18

AF turned up, the unwelcome bint!

I've ordered OPKs. Can't hurt.

Ajords1 · 24/03/2014 08:45

Oy change here is now 5 days late, started spotting yesterday but only when I wiped (tmi) and only once the whole day......more confused then ever - have a Drs appointment tomorrow, unless AF arrives with vigour today!

Nope, fraid not. Very very light pink spotting only when I wipe and only sometimes!!!!! Drs tomorrow for advice.......

Good luck!

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 08:48

Hmmmm think the witch may have found me......grrrr........still think I will head to the Drs to find out if she knows why I'm a week late.....if it is preconception vitamins are they a good idea? Think I prefer to know when I can expect AF to save disappointment when she's late for no reason!!

Oh I'm sorry to hear that :( yes worth seeing what dr has to say

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 09:27

Yeh I was going to cancel but think it might be worth asking the question....

NewlymrsB · 25/03/2014 11:48

Yes as you have an appointment anyway there is no harm. Let us know how you get on :)

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 15:22

bleeding almost stopped again - definitely going to the drs this evening - even if its just to tell me i am not going insane or am completely broken coz thats how im starting to feel!!! Angry

NewlymrsB · 25/03/2014 15:31

Oh how confusing for you! I hope you get some answers :(

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 15:35

dont get me wrong - i am fairly sure this is an AF of sorts.......ive boxed away any hope of BFP until next month - but its just frustrating when your body decides to play silly buggers haha

OP posts:
NewlymrsB · 25/03/2014 16:27

Definitely an emotional rollercoaster!!

toothachereturns · 25/03/2014 16:42

Very frustrating indeed! Sad
My af finished on Sunday so I'm now in cd6.... bring on Friday (should be nearly ovulating by then) and let the poas commence for another month!

Haha toothachereturns!!! Go for it - you'll have a fun weekend!Wink

toothachereturns · 25/03/2014 18:14

dh has been warned to brace himself. Grin

let us know what the doc says. x

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 18:43

Back from docs and she is not ruling out implantation bleeding. She said that I am to go back with a urine sample at the end of next week if AF doesn't appear at full force! She estimated when conception would have happened if we were to be lucky and it was bang in the middle of when we had given ourselves a fighting chance!! I think I have resigned myself to not being lucky this month but hearing from a professional that there's still a chance is still nice x

NewlymrsB · 25/03/2014 18:45

Ooooh fingers crossed for u!!! X

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 18:48

Thanks mrs B! Think reality hit hubby - think he's a little freaked out haha - bless them!

toothachereturns · 25/03/2014 18:55

Good news Ajords! And good luck. Wink

Ajords1 · 25/03/2014 18:57

Thanks toothachereturns trying to stay level headed as it's not certain! Thinking if I remain fairly pessimistic I be less disappointed.

OP posts:
NewlymrsB · 25/03/2014 20:54

Let us know how things develop!

kitkat321 · 25/03/2014 23:12

Fingers crossed for you! toothachereturns!

AF is due on Friday for me - I've already done a few cheapo tests (couldn't help myself) and all have been a bfn so not got my hopes up. Also have no other symptoms.
