Lovely to see so many BFPs on that list of stats! Grin

Muddledandunsure · 19/08/2014 14:52

Thanks Sunbathing Cat. We didn't dtd until after the test showed negative though.

I'm tempted to test now, I have 2 tests left the hospital gave me.

Can I join please? :-) teeniedeenie34, age 34, ttc#1, cycle 1, cd24

Not holding out much hope for this month as first month off bc and not sure when anything is due to happen (ovulation or AF), so have just been happily dtd and seeing what happens. I've had a whole loads of symptoms but all can also point towards ovulation kick-starting again so trying to not get my hopes up too much. For 28 day cycle AF would be due around 24th (Sunday). Planning to poas this weekend if AF has not arrived.

Katybear123 · 19/08/2014 14:54

Your welcome oh Lordy. There sure I'm hoping I soon move to the top but will have to wait an c pretty sure something is happening so will have to see if it's the witch or bfp

Blueskygirl30 · 19/08/2014 15:12

Thanks for updating the stats Katy I'm going to test on th Thursday morning, I think that's when you're planning to test too?

Muddledandunsure · 19/08/2014 15:43

I caved in and tested, bfn.

I will test again end of the month if af hasn't shown up.

Natalie1989xo · 19/08/2014 16:35

I also caved and tested, BFN but not surprised. Ovia app predicts AF due 22nd August so I guess it ia still early. Only using IC's, I would spend too much money with my POAS addiction!! Hope you are all well Smile

Muddledandunsure · 19/08/2014 16:54

I'm not giving up hope yet for this month, not unless af arrives.

Nora42 · 19/08/2014 17:00

Hi all, can I join in?!
TTC #1, first month really trying (there's been a several months of not really paying attention and just seeing what happens!) I'm 36 and AF due 22 Aug.

Had a few symptoms but as this is the first time I've really logged my dates n stuff I'm not getting overly excited.

Hmm...just had another BFN but just got some opks as I'm giving charting and temping a go next month and the opk is very strongly positive?!? Any clues anyone? I'm on CD31, 14 dpo, my cycles are usually 31-33 days. Thanks!!

Yes I do have the ewcm but also had it on cd16 when I thought I had oved (but wasn't charting or temping then so can't be sure) Here's a pic:

First one (on left) taken at 6pm before any liquids, then had lots of juice before doing the one on the right 30 mins later. It's so confusing all this - can we really ovulate this late in our cycles?? So crazy!

teachermummy2b · 19/08/2014 18:53

15dpo here and another bfn :( Even ovia has given up on me lol. Good luck to all those still getting bfn...

MaGratgarlik1983 · 19/08/2014 18:56

We're not out til AF comes teachermummy2b - give it a few days and see (easier said than done I know!!)

Katybear123 · 19/08/2014 19:27

Hey blue sky yep I'm going to test then if the witch doesn't get me first. I have af type lower abdominal cramps so she could easily b on way - praying she isn't but who knows. Only other symptom is felt sick all morning and during gym session, headache, boobs still big and tired which isn't like me but could b af gearing up. I hate that the symptoms r so similar. Role on thur

Sorry muggle and Natalie and teacher mummy for ur bfn's that sucks but u aren't out yet
Bubalo gd luck in 2 wk window
Nora and teenage welcome aboard
Mrs g wish I could help but clueless on opk's as haven't done then yet will start next month if no bfp

Katybear123 · 19/08/2014 20:07

Owwccchh proper lower ab pain. Hmmm me think she might b on her way :-). Not due till thur

Kyz · 19/08/2014 20:51

evening all - have been in a foul mood all day with cramps plus some light spotting this evening so I think AF has arrived. Am sure it'll be more obvious tomorrow. Ah well, at least i'll have some info to go on now!

Thanks for the welcome all!

Bfn on my frer. Don't feel too sad though as I know it's too early really (9dpo). Think I'm going to test again on Friday....(or thurs if I cave and am still feeling symptoms!).

bubalou · 19/08/2014 21:24

Ordered some first response tests so af is due on 28th august so I actually will be able to test 5 days before but I will probably wait until at least the 25th / 26th to test if I can hold out.

Congrats to all the bfps and sorry to all that got caught by the witch.

Fingers crossed for more positives to come this month and next.
