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?

I posted a picture of the half-line-test onto the canyouseealine website - so far 3 people think it's a positive and 1 person isn't sure!

I think that's a line!!

I will also be testing tomorrow-so excited to go to bed!

I have a very vile mind so this is normal to me! I am constantly talking about willies bums and poo!!

Currently have lower back pain and can not stop eating! Although no real change there Wink

CherryPie3 · 08/09/2014 17:05

Thanks ellstor :)

With a mind like that you'll fit right in here with us lot! Lol :)

Sounds like some promising symptoms you have there, fingers crossed!! Will look out for your peestick post in the morning Grin

Why is it hard to get preggo for irregular periods I tried over a year it's now almost 2 years already and nothing . I'm worried .

CherryPie3 · 08/09/2014 17:26

Oh LoveBaby that is a good question, and I wish I had the answer for you. Flowers

Have you told your doctor? xx

Orangeisthenewbanana · 08/09/2014 17:39

Lovebaby Flowers. Agree with Cherry, if you've been trying for 2 years, definitely see your GP and they can start to investigate why you're struggling.

I always figured irregular periods made it harder as it’s harder to predict ovulation and pinpoint your fertile window. Or because maybe we don't ovulate every month Sad. Guess if our cycles are longer we get less chances every year too. Whatever the reason, it's rubbish!

ImpatiencePersonified · 08/09/2014 20:29

Lovebaby it sucks camel cock, yes I did just type that. I'd been on the pill so long I have no idea if I've ever been regular but now it seems the most important thing ever!
Now panicking because I can feel funny things in my downstairs. Not period pains but you know that feeling of sort of achy way? My body is a total arsehole. Fingers crossed it turns out to be nothing.. It doesn't feel like regular period pains. Meh

Anyway onto lighter topics... I can't wait to get back on here tomoz and hear the news and if I still don't have any AF movement then it'll be another test for me before the docs.

Please let tomoz be a good day for us Jeebus, I promise not to fucking swear any fucking more (on a Monday evening at 8.28pm...... I Was never made to be a saint)

Beaverfeaver2 · 08/09/2014 21:06

Good luck at the docs tomorrow impatience.

I have got to stop reading the trying longer than 10 months thread.
It just fills me with dread reading about people who started like me with no period after coming off the pill and for no bfp years later.

It's early days and I already feel like I'm resigned to living my life with just the pets around me as my babies :(

What makes it worse is in the last 3 years we have gained 8 nieces/nephews.

They are wonderful and I love them all so much.
But I always thought, if all of our family have babies easily then there has got to be one of us that has a problem.

I just kind of know that's me

ImpatiencePersonified · 08/09/2014 22:07

Thanks my darlin, but listen to me beautiful... You can't be thinking like that. You need to create a positive wee nest for that bubs, otherwise it's counterproductive. So come on, baby making hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm with me.

Huuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmm

Beaverfeaver2 · 08/09/2014 22:14

Hummmmmmmmmm

Hhhuuuummmmmmmmmm

Thanks impatience. You know how to cheer a gal up!

:D

ImpatiencePersonified · 08/09/2014 22:18

Good lass.... Them GPS better be ready for us!

R0ckCh1c · 08/09/2014 22:31

Hi All, saw the threads and thought I'd share my experience with you as had similar symptoms.

I came off BC in April and had cycle 1 after 30days, then next cycle wasn't until 63days!! I had symptoms like cramps, sore nipples & even clear liquid came out of them. I was so emotional too and came out with a bad spots nearer the 60days.

I am now waiting for my next cycle which was due last weds, but only to have slight brownish spotting on Thurs. I have had metallic taste in my mouth, have had headaches and been feeling a bit bloated and sickly on and off... But tests are still negative.

Unfortunately I think these are all side effects of coming off the pill. Poxie hormones... Getting fed up now and just want my body to hurry up and get back into a regular cycle.

Sending you all magic baby dust x

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 05:38

G'morning girls :)

Beaver Big hugs sweetie. And I second what Impatience says about being positive! It really goes a long way. Chin up mi darling :) Flowers

Impatience You get them doctors told today angel! They'd better be proactive or else the Hopeful Ovaries are coming to get 'em!!! Grin

R0ck Thank you for sharing your story, hope your cycle is back on track very soon! Pesky hormones eh? Don't know whether we're coming or going!
Are you sticking around with us here on this thread? We're a friendly bunch :)

Well, as for me. I've been up since 4am worrying. I was bleeding last night/early hours this morning - don't know if it's af or the thrush tbh. Doesn't look or feel like af. Obviously the test yesterday was a fluke cos bfn this morning. Although it was another very small wee, so I'm half deluding myself that small wee's don't contain enough hormone to show on a test stick. I know in my heart I'm not pregnant but it's nice to dream. I have those 30 internet cheapies on their way to me so I'll still test regular until af shows, just on case ya know?

Anyways girls, looks like I'm up for the day so I'm gonna go put a load of washing in and have a cuppa before it's time to get the kiddos up for school. I can feel another nap coming on at about lunchtime!

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 05:46

I feel so sick :(
With worry and disappointment though I think. I feel distinctly 'not pregnant' today. :(

Orangeisthenewbanana · 09/09/2014 06:55

Oh Cherry am so sorry lovely Sad. You must be knackered. But AF still hasn't arrived and as long as she's not around, there's still a chance! Could it be the thrush mucking up your tests? Sending you pints of Brew and a gooey chocolate Cake to help get you through the morning.

Beaver, keep going sweetheart. You will get there. Don't lose hope Flowers.

Impatience best of luck at the docs today. Don't let them fob you off - though I get the feeling you're not a woman to mess with! Grin

Hi R0ck welcome to our crazy thread!

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 07:13

Thanks Orange, I don't know if the thrush can muck up tests to be honest. I'm absolutely sure it isn't af, it's the wrong place if that makes sense, and it stings like a scratch. Bleeding is coming from further up, near my clitoris or where I wee from! Sorry, bit tmi I guess.

Hey ho, not over til it's over :)

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 07:13

Thank you for the chocolate cake!! That made an awesome breakfast Grin

ellstor · 09/09/2014 07:21

OH MY GOD ....www.canyouseealine.com/view_home_pregnancy_test.php?testID=54950

What do you think?

R0ckCh1c · 09/09/2014 07:34

Morning Girls,
You all seem like a nice bunch, so I think I'll stay on your thread. Smile It's nice to be able to talk to others going through the same as haven't told anyone that we are TTC, except my best mate, but she keeps telling me to be patient. I know it sounds silly, but I really wanted a summer baby, so only got 2 months left & can't see it happening Confused

Cherry I brought a pack of 30 from Amazon really cheap which I've been using. I was worried that they weren't very good & asked my docs about them, but he said negative tests can be unreliable, but if show positive, that you are highly likely preggers. Although not sure if thrush would affect the results? Fingers crossed for you Smile

I'm off to work now... Have a good day girlies Smile Brew x

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 07:42

ellstor I think congratulations are in order!! That is a good strong line :) :) :) :) ;)

R0ck I'm glad you're staying :)
I have 2 summer babies - July. If I could choose I would have a winter or autumn baby - the heat being heavily pregnant in summer is horrible!!

I'm gonna google like crazy today. I'm also meeting my sister for coffee so I might might tell her what's been going on. I might not.

Anywhoo, have a lovely day xxx

Orangeisthenewbanana · 09/09/2014 07:50

Sorry ellstor, on my phone and can't get the link to work, sounds promising though Grin

ImpatiencePersonified · 09/09/2014 08:21

Good morning gorgeous ladies,

Welcome welcome R0ck we are a chuffing nice bunch, even if I do say so myself. It can be hard to find a thread on here that's still small enough to keep up with - you stop with us. I know exactly what you mean about not telling people though, I fessed up to my best mate last night after 9 months of trying hah! I aint one for sodding emotions.

Cherry try not to over think it just yet sweet. As I said before, the game aint over till the egg escapes. There's still time for that BFN to show its head

ellstor CHECK YOU FRIGGIN OUT! HIGH FIVE NEW MAMMA TO BE!!! Excellent news that is!

As for me? Well the weird feeling stopped as soon as I posted last night. Now back to calm nothingness except aching norks. Day 46 now and I'm really starting to believe I'm mental.

Ah well, nowt to be done until the docs later... appointment aint till half 4 so its gonna be on my mind ALL DAY (again).

I genuinely don't mind if I aint caught this month but I just want SOMETHING to happen!

CherryPie3 · 09/09/2014 08:58

ellstor's test.... www.canyouseealine.com/view_home_pregnancy_test.php?testID=54950

It's undeniably fricking positive!!! Grin
