comeawaywithme · 20/08/2014 16:46

It's a deal bubalou! Will test first thing Monday morning and let you know how it goes. Fingers crossed for both of us Smile

Katybear123 · 20/08/2014 16:48

Hi jazzy that is horrid, I'm so sorry. I hope it isn't af she is a witch. Big virtual hugs, choc for u today and have a big glass of wine.xxx

Mrs g, hmmm not the pill messing u up then, how annoying.

KittyVonCatsington · 20/08/2014 17:20

Hello ladies!

So sorry to read a few of you have been AF'd in my catch up-it sucks!

welcome to all the newbies-lovely to have you on board Grin

11dpo for me in sunny northern France and like a trie old timer, too afraid to test and spoil my holiday! Have usual symptoms (boobs that hurt, nausea that comes and goes, cm that is really creamy and just general hope.) I've been here many times before though so fully aware I may not be successful

Thanks for taking over as conductor katy!

Am back on Sat so might test Sunday. Please oh please let it be my month!

Hugs to you all and hope I read of some more BFPs when I next find WiFi (am only northern france-you'd think WiFi wouldn't be so hard to come by!)

bubalou · 20/08/2014 17:32

Sorry jazzy Hmm

Comeawaywithme - terrific. I have a 'testing buddy' so I will definitely hold out now!

I really don't feel pg - I know that doesn't count for a lot but I just don't get the feeling I am this month.

Maybe because it's month 1 and that would be too jammy!

Agree though - how the fuck do people fall pregnant accidentally when we try so hard to time it and can't! Confused Frustrating and typical!

Katybear123 · 20/08/2014 17:33

Hey kitty, love the idea of being the conductor as long as that means a guaranteed bfp!!

Your symptoms sounds v promising, I have all crossed for u. Enjoy ur hols xxx

ChandlersFarang · 20/08/2014 17:37

English, Kitty & Grand - good to see you all on here again today!! Smile I'm officially next door on September's bus but keeping an eye on everyone here - enjoying the BFP frenzies now and then.

Kitty am very jealous of your France travels - quintessential European summer holiday I'm sure! A million miles from Bangkok. Also am very impressed by your efficient cycle!! Very hopeful for you.

Katy and Jackie you both sound like you're cooking up a pair of BFPs there!! Fx for u guys.

And hello to all the newbies, a busy summer of busses! X x

EnglishGirlsReturned · 20/08/2014 17:49

So hope this is your month Kitty! Will be keeping my eyes peeled for some good news over the weekend Smile

TheDetective · 20/08/2014 18:03

Has anyone else's MN gone weird?!

Can't cope! Arghhhhh!

Still no AF. The tiniest pinprick of pink the 2nd time I wiped on getting up this evening (on nights). Another BFN on an IC and a cb digi.

I feel like screaming at myself! I've no idea what's happening.

MaGratgarlik1983 · 20/08/2014 19:36

Well I just took another opk and hpt and this time both were negative. So I don't even have LH anymore either! But still no AF. What is going on...!

Jazzy,take it easy, it must be so hard going through what you have been through, I am hoping its no AF that is coming, TTC is like an addcition, it takes over your life, people say don't worry about it, and try not to think about it, but of course its not that easy, I am sure you will get your BFP, just have to hope and remain positive, which is not always easy but you will get there!! x

TheGrandHighWitch · 20/08/2014 19:57

Thanks Katybear and it's nice to 'see' you too ChandlersFarang. My BFP/AF due date is 31st August but could easily spill over into September so have been keeping an eye on that bus too. I am mostly sticking with this one at the moment though as I like how lucky it has been for several of the posters so far Wink.

I have been having a fair bit of creamy cm since ovulation which I know is because of the hormones more than anything baby related but still thinking positively.

FX for good news for you KittyVonCatsington. It's about time you had some good news on the ttc front.

Blueskygirl30 · 20/08/2014 20:18

Evening everyone,

Sorry about the AFs arriving and keeping my fingers crossed for all the positive sounding symptoms!! I too have some brown cm, I usually get it the day before AF. The witch is due on Friday so I'm thinking she's a day early and will be here tomorrow. I gave in and took a test when I got home a couple of hours ago...BFN as expected. I'm such a knob for taking the test. I'm only 10dpo and I noticed the brown spotting straight afterwards. Grrrrr.

Mummabubbles · 20/08/2014 21:14

katy and kitty symptoms sound promising for you both. Massive amounts of fx for when you poas.
Sorry for bfns. Hopefully next month....

10 dpo here and Symptoms = very very painful cramping 8+9dpo but has since stopped. Felt really nauseous this morning but I missed breakfast so think I was just hungry! And absolutely zero cm which I understand is not a good sign for bfp. Will be testing Sunday morning if no af but not feeling very hopeful at allConfused

JackieBrambles · 20/08/2014 21:21

Blue we're at exactly the same stage, 10 dpo and brown cm/spotting! I got a bfn on a frer yesterday.

I'm now googling implementation bleeding at 10dpo because if it's AF she's 5 days early.

I'm also having a glass of red Blush

Blueskygirl30 · 20/08/2014 21:48

Oh Jackie I hope it is implantation for you! It would only be 1 or 2 days early to be AF for me so I'm not too hopeful. I was going to test tomorrow morning but I'm not sure now. I think I'll see what my temp does in the morning, it's dipped 2 days in a row so if it stay lows I won't even bother testing.

TheDetective · 21/08/2014 02:51

Those who said it ain't over til AF arrived, you're right! I've renewed hope now!

AF officially one day late. Pink discharge on wiping has stopped. And tonight I got a very strange shooting pain through my fanjo. Just momentarily.

I don't feel like AF is on its way.

I've got an increase in CM also.

Please let it just be late implantation. Pleeeeease!

When would I expect to see a bfp (or a bfn!) if the pink spotting started at 0300 on 19/08? Have had no further since a tiny drop at 5pm on 20/08.

I was hoping to test again Friday? But then I won't have any FMU as I'm on nights Thursday and staying up all day Friday. So Saturday would be the first time I'd have FMU again.

This. Is. So. Fruuuuuuustrating!!!

ChandlersFarang · 21/08/2014 06:42

Detective that sounds very promising - another appearance of the Lightening Vag!! GrinGrin I really hope I get that one day, sounds fab. Lol.

I think you need to look up how the HCG doubles after implantation - I'm not sure but you should find online how long a FRER would take to show a BFP. Sure someone on here will know! Smile

angelaham · 21/08/2014 06:58

detective this sounds really promising!!!

JackieBrambles · 21/08/2014 07:15

The detective that sounds very exciting!!

I think I'm out, a bit of blood on wiping this morning so I've used a tampon Sad

I really don't know wtf is up though, AF is never this early and I've been noting my AF dates since start of year. I've probably done it myself by getting worked up symptom spotting!!

Good luck everyone else, will still hang out here crossing my fingers for you all x

Sunshinesaz86 · 21/08/2014 07:37

Just checking back to al you lovely ladies still waiting to test! Good luck to u all!

And your symptoms do sound positive detective, I'm sure I've read somewhere it's about 3 days after implantation that HCG is strong enough to show up on + on test, but don't quote me! Good luck tho FX for u!!

ChandlersFarang · 21/08/2014 08:04

Don't forget Jackie it could be implantation bleeding xx
