I'm so hoping Sod's law kicks in for me. I have bought so much for next months trying that I'm hoping this entices it.

Just realised if i get af and I have a 28 day cycle and if Ovia is accurate my hubbie and I will be in diff countries when I ovulate!!!!!! AAAHHH. I think I'm going to have to x that bridge when I come to it hoping sod law will prevent it

angelaham · 17/08/2014 19:57

I reakon we are due a good few more BFP by the then of the month and thats all of us waiting !!

trying to remain positive!!!

Katybear123 · 17/08/2014 20:19

I hope ur right angel I really do xx

Mummabubbles · 17/08/2014 20:22

So many bfps Smile congratulations and good luck to you all.
By my calculations and by the law of averages there should be a few more to come. Fx.
Bit of a pity party for me here, I turned 35 yesterday so I think I am now officially in the older, fertility declining gang. gaaah.
I can test one week today but it seems so far away. I have 0 symptoms to report. Feeling envious of all you symptom spotters! I want some symptoms to spot too...

Mummabubbles · 17/08/2014 20:25

katybear123 I have a feeling this is your month. Whenever I read your posts I think "yep she's preggers"

angelaham · 17/08/2014 20:25

I hope i am right too Katy lol

Mummabubbles happy 35th birthday too you, i am refusing to listen to all this 35 and above decline in fertility, wishing you a quick BFP !!!

Mummabubbles · 17/08/2014 20:32

I shall refuse to listen to it too then angelaham! MY FERTILITY IS NOT IN DECLINE Smile

angelaham · 17/08/2014 20:48

Yeah that's the spirt Mumma!! X x

sparkle17 · 17/08/2014 20:57

yeah i reckon there will be a good handful of bfp's to come!

Katybear123 · 17/08/2014 21:10

Ah mumma ur post actually just bought tears to my eyes. And I am not a teary person.Thank u so much for believing in me, I pray ur right. We will see.

I to refuse to believe them u will get ur bfp. So will we all xxxx

TheDetective · 17/08/2014 22:37

I'm in a pity party for one here!

LMP was 23rd July, AF due 20th August. ?? ovulated on CD15 (got a positive OPK at midnight on 7th. (Had a neg less than 3 hours earlier). Carried on getting positives through the 7th. So I'm possibly 10DPO today.

Yesterday and today I have done IC's - BFN :( And today I did a FRER. BFN also.

Not even a squinter of a line.

I'm going to assume I'm out this month. I got a BFP on CD22 with DS2, 10DPO, with a squinter on 9DPO.

So to have a BFN on CD 25 is probably not good news.

Someone knock some sense in to me please! I've taken it really hard this month as we DTD CD10, 12, 13, 14, 15 (twice) and 16. I am not looking forward to another month of this! I prefer to DTD for fun, not babies!

jazzyjenbo · 17/08/2014 23:48

Good evening ladies,
U thought i would share the cake i made for my 'suprise' nieces birthday seen as i havnt got a bfp (yet) to share. I hope this coming week beings lots more bfp's... August seems to if produced lots of babies so far and lots of dtd chat can only create more.... Whos next??

jazzyjenbo · 17/08/2014 23:59

Those on phones who can't see i can share a link but it goes to my 'cake decorating' fb page, not sure if thats allowed as it would out me (not that i'm bothered tbh.. B funny if i knew sum1 or if sum1 lived nearby)

tickletink · 18/08/2014 05:42

Oh my word. BFP! I'm going to be a mummy!

I'm freaking out a little!

MaMaPo · 18/08/2014 06:13

Wonderful news tickle! I definitely see the line. Hurrah!

Detective - I'm with you. All over the shop with my cycle and feeling pretty definitely out this month. And yes, dtd to conceive is miles less fun that doing it ... well, for fun. Let's try and look forward to September together.

So probably I shouldn't be symptom spotting given I have no ideaI if I even ovulated, and definitely not enough dtd, but wow my left breast has been feeling weird - fuller, though not when I hold it with my hand. (That sounds weird.) plus I've had amazing stretchy ewcm every few days for the last week, but no hint of a positive opk. Conclusion: my body is weird.

angelaham · 18/08/2014 06:57

Congratulations Tickle,

The detective hang in there, wishing you a bfp!!!!

spinningirl10 · 18/08/2014 07:21

Congratulations TickleGrin

Detective, sorry you're feeling down after the bfn. Some ladies have had later bfps despite getting it sooner with earlier pregnancies so don't give up yet.

Cariad2014 · 18/08/2014 07:31

Congratulations Tickle - I hope you have a happy and healthy nine months.

10 DPO here and my promising symptoms (lots of creamy white cm; lots of peeing and tiredness) led to me cracking out a FRER this morning. I know, I know, none of these are pregnancy specific, but hey ho.

BFN. Gutted doesn't even do justice to how I feel right now. I've been feeling hopeful all month and loved the idea of a baby in time for the election. Ah well... I guess I should be grateful I haven't had another CP this month, wait for AF to arrive on Friday and then strap myself in for round 5 of the emotional rollercoaster that is TTC. Why does nobody tell you that it's this difficult?

Cariad2014 · 18/08/2014 07:37

Detective - I feel your pain - although fx that your bean just decided to implant late.

We also put a massive effort into DTD this month (which included waking up an hour earlier for work every day for over a week so that we had enough time to DTD each morning.

Katybear123 · 18/08/2014 07:52

Congrats tickle
Detective I understand how u feel. Day 23 here and pretty certain body gearing up for af to arrive wed. Boobs r bigger and sort of full, and af type feel in tummy. Think all my promising symptoms may just have been normal body routines.
Jazzy can't wait to see ur cake later on phone for now.

Katybear123 · 18/08/2014 07:55

Cariadi fear I am going to b in same boat and we dtd 9,12,13,16,17 and 19. Wasn't easy so the thought if having to go again is not easy either Hmm

kismac · 18/08/2014 08:07

Congrats to all the recent BFP! So exciting! And hugs to those not so lucky this month. I've got my fingers and toes crossed that you'll get some good news soon.
I've got an appointment on Friday with my GP to get everything confirmed and get on the midwife books. Eek!

Feeling pretty yuck. Was in the supermarket and normally I'd sneak some biscuits but the thought of it put me off. Oh dear. This isn't going to be fun. Plus my boobs are killing me! Went to bed with a hot water bottle cuddled into them. Ow!
