Anyone else still waiting?

[MaGratgarlik1983]

Just wondering if anyone else is still in limbo?! Now on CD35, no sign of AF, bfn on test (I think, hard to wonder if I imagine these shadows of lines on the ICs). Loads of symptoms but don't want to let myself get excited in case AF shows and it's all in my head. Anyone else in the same situation?

Thanks Impatience .

Normally it's great only having AF once in a blue moon - my sisters were always a bit jealous! Never really bothered me until it came to ttc! Have always worried a lot bit about how I would manage it, we were bloody lucky with DD second cycle, but all my old anxieties have come back now we're trying again. Especially as pretty much every other person I know is upduffed or recently sprogged!

Oh, and I've developed a fondness of salted pretzels!! I have never liked them before....

x-post Cherry, hi! I know what you mean about the Sept bus. Keane Reeves and Sandra Bullock must be driving it! . So lovely to see the BFP's popping up though!

Keanu!

Day 66 here. Still waiting.
Bit teary today and very snappy with people at work (all male workforce so they just think I'm crazy and stay away for a bit)

inpatience we will have to compare what our docs say.
My appointment is next Thursday.

I haver taken any more HPT's but bought a couple today so I could do one more test before going to docs.

The lady on the checkout was really sweet and wished me best of luck.
Made me all warm and fuzzy.

DH trying to book a last minute getaway for us.
Just hope my bosses let me have the time off.
I really need a break and DH has just accepted a job, so time to celebrate and relax in the beaver household.

Beaver a but of relaxation might just do the trick :) xx

Morning ladies! Beaver, hope you're feeling a bit better and that you and your DH get your break sorted for a bit of relaxation. Anywhere particular you had in mind? Hopefully your GP can shed some light on what's going on next week.

CD37 here. Will be on pants lookout every time I go to the loo for the next week I think . Not particularly hopeful for a BFP. Have no symptoms whatsoever, except a bit of tiredness which could easily be due to a few recent late nights. With DD I had sore boobs for 2 weeks before I tested and nothing this time. Still, I suppose if AF hasn't arrived, there's still always a chance!
Hope you all are well and have a lovely weekend.

Sorry ladies, am now down at the outlaws with no wifi so only just caught up with your messages.

We should create a nickname for our wee collective... THE HOPEFUL OVARIES!

Anyway... Still no show from the arsehole otherwuse known as AF. Yesterday's test was BFN but going to do another tomorrow before we set off home. Just on the off chance because I really would love to tell the outlaws face to face :(
Chin up, Norks stuck out, lips pouted and strut ladies.... Que Sera Sera x x

Well good evening ladies, sorry I've not been reading/posting - been at work! Boo!

impatience Hope you've had a lovely weekend with your outlaws And I love "The Hopeful Ovaries".
That's a second thread title there I tell thee! (Sorry, I'm a Yorkshire bird!)

orange The knicker checking is a pain isn't it? I know exactly how you feel, I'm becoming very slightly obsessed with cervical mucus consistency and cervix positioning at the moment, as it seems to satisfy my brains need to be pro-actively doing something. Anything! CM is white and sticky today of anyone wanted to know... No such thing as tmi when in the 2ww. Haha.

Beaver, how are holding up lovely lady?

Cd46 here for me. You know that thing I said about will power, and me finding enough to not test/but more tests? Well, I had 3 upstairs this morning, I tested this evening when I got home from work. Obviously a bfn. I'm only 8 dpo, 9 at the absolute most! Fed up with myself, what is about peeing on sticks that sets the crazy addiction off? I even tried to half convince myself that there were 2 lines - there clearly wasn't.

The husband is distracting himself, he's no idea that I'm obsessing whilst waiting for af. The plan is to start taking my pill again if af turns up, I'm ok with this for now, I think. until af turns up when I'll turn into a sobbing hormonal broody crazy lady who starts staring at DH with sad puppy dog eyes.

Anyway, I hope you're all well, I may not be able to post tomorrow as it's a stupid early wake up call for me and by the time I get home I'll be fooked. :)

Ooh beaver I don't know how I missed it before bit congrats to your DH on the new job!! How exciting :)

Happy Sunday ladies,

Orange, Impatience an Cherry - thank you.

cd69 now.
I'm feeling more positive than last week.
I was a bit of a wreck last week thinking that there is a problem, but I am now just thinking that it is hopefully just a blip and my body will get back on track soon.
I put pressure on myself as I really wanted to be pregnant by my next birthday.
But that's a month away so don't see that there's the chance of that happening.

Docs on Thursday. I really hope they are helpful.

Holiday wise we are probably going to Cornwall. We haven't booked it yet, so just trawling the sites looking for a cottage.
I kinda fancy going further afield to do something totally crazy and different before a baby hopefully comes along, but we have a crazy 10month dog that would just love a full week of digging in the sand.

Can't believe its September already!

Hope everyone's having a good weekend.
I saw a good film last night called The Guest.
The main lead is the guy from Downton Abbey (which I never saw) but he was amazing in this.
Very good thriller with lots of dark humour. If it's your sort of thing go and see it!

Evening ladies, hope you've all had great weekends. That film sounds interesting Beaver, will have to stick it on the Lovefilm list . We watched The Raid 2. The first one was one of the best action films I've ever seen and the sequel is amazing too. Bone crunching fight scenes and the actors doing it are amazing. Spent a lot of time wincing though, not for the squeamish!

Has been a lovely weekend here. BIL and SIL asked me to be godmother to one of my 8 week old twin nephews and am so chuffed . Had a great day out to a farm/activity place today with DD in the sunshine. Only down spot is I think AF has arrived . Had light amount of pinkish stain last time I went to loo so I fully expect her to be here in full force by tomorrow morning. A small voice in my head is still saying "implantation!?" but I don't really believe it. Will have to wait and see....

Sounds lovely Orange.
Fingers crossed that it's not just AF for you.
Sunda promising :)

Hi all,

Can I join? I'm on a few other threads but this caught my eye as I'm in that horrible wait and am now on CD27, cycles are on average 29 days and am on cycle no 5 now, using clearblue monitor but so far it's saying negative when I do the pregnancy tests so not feeling very positive at all :(

Trying not to cave and buy any first response tests as I'm hanging onto the hope that the clearblue tests with the monitor must be rubbish but I suspect they're prob not and I just need to accept I'm not preggars.....again!

Good luck all!

Welcome newbie! All of us on here have cycles that are in a bit of a pickle understatement though as you can see from earlier this thread sometimes the BFP doesn't show up until later for some reason. How often are you testing? Maybe you could leave it a week and come back to it then? I know for me the bfn is harder than the not knowing! If you want to test again though maybe try a first response test, they're supposed to be good for picking up early bfp's.

AF has unpacked her bags here with a vengeance. Feeling crampy, tired and have a sore throat brewing . On the plus side, this cycle was a week shorter than my last one, and the shortest since I stopped breastfeeding so fx that will continue. Hope your Mondays are not too evil!

Now then my darling Hopeful Ovaries, new to the thread and old (welcome newbie!)... how are we all doing?

Day 45 here and nada to report, every test is still a BFN including this mornings. Had a lovely time at the outlaws but I was so so sad I couldn't tell them happy news... especially when his mum was crying as we left. Gah, so hard.

Docs tomoz though so fingers crossed I get some answers then. Just hoping they don't think I'm mental.

Soz about AF arriving Orange...that sucks ass.
How you doing today Beaver? Your last post seems more upbeat... it is hard aint it? Ere you should come up to Scotland! Way cheaper, nice scenery AND you might be here for the independence referendum.... that'll be interesting grin

Cherry what about you dear girl? You well?

Hey everyone, :)

Welcome newbie :)
You know, if you wanted to indulge your brewing poas addiction I recommend super drug own brand. They're one of the most sensitive on the market and currently big one twin pack and get a twin pack half price. Not that I'm encouraging you.

Sorry AF got you orange, load yourself up with chocolate and wine! :) It's the only thing that makes af more tolerable.

impatience chin up chickadee. Just think when you do get your bfp you can think of a fun and creative way if revealing the exciting news to your in laws. Sounds like they'd be absolutely over the moon :)

Cd48 here, I think. And I have woken up with thrush!! :( Lovely
Wait....is that a symptom? in denial. And I'm crying at everything. Stupid body. Was so hopeful with my new 'symptoms' that I did another test, bfn. There is a line of some sort on there but it is more shadowy and no colour so still counting as bfn. Came up immediately so think there might have been something on the test inside maybe. I'll test again tomorrow at the end of the week.

Have a lovely Monday girlies xxx

buy one twin pack - not big!!

So freaking tired. I'm off to bed for a nap.
I know I miss the kiddos when they're at school but it does have its perks.

Cherry! That sounds like you could be on your way to BFP.
Test again for sure!

Are nightmares a pregnancy symptom because I had loads last night...
CD70 here and struggling to find some late availability.
I've past that job onto DH to sort though.
Feel like zombie due to lack of sleep last night. Looking forward to 5pm when I can go home to bed!

Just heard that Duchess of Cambridge is up-duffed again.

Morning sickness apparently effecting her quite badly this time too.

Congrats to the royals (whilst also being teeny bit jealous too)

:D

I saw just now about the Cambridges, they come across as a lovely couple so am chuffed for them . I know what you mean about the green eyed monster though Beaver. That's probably what I hate most about ttc, it is so hard not to feel a teeny bit jealous when you hear baby news, and then you feel guilty for that too! Bloody hormones have a lot to answer for!

Thanks Beaver, I hope so but trying not to get too hopeful just in case... I have just woken up, I couldn't slept longer I think but the house phone was ringing, ah well time for some housework I guess.

I'm really chuffed for Wills and Kate, I think it's wonderful news, hope she's feeling her best soon x

Ok, after retesting I am posting a picture, to see what you think....
There is colour this time, but only half a line??

Whaddaya reckon??

I'm gonna have to buy more tests aren't I?
