GillW - Sorry that was supposed to be - very sorry. (that will teach me to preview)

bluestar · 17/05/2004 14:12

I have reached bding week again. Have some contraception tho in the form of a spotty ds who doesn't like sleeping at the moment or prefers to sleep with mummy rather than letting daddy! Hopefully we can get in a couple of quickies this month!

BeckiF sorry

Definitely not PG, B**tch AF came bang on time so have been depressed since Saturday even hard to write today and say it out loud 'so to speak'!

Not sure I have the inner strength to cope with this heartache every month. Need a distraction.

Don't think I will pay attention to dates etc for a while and get back to the gym - not sure how else to cope with things.

V depressed sorry......

MoseGirl · 17/05/2004 14:23

GillW - AF getting to us all - sorry 4 U 2

GillW · 17/05/2004 14:37

Hmmm, smellymelly - I'm inclined to think that too, so I'm not going to be surprised at all if that's what it turns out to be. In fact I really just want it to get on with things so we can start thinking about next cycle, rather than dragging this one out with this stop-start bleeding. I haven't a clue where I am now cycle-wise. Day 33 of the last one, or Day 13 counting from the first spotting, or day 2 counting from the first continuous bleed (which lasted all of about 3-4 hours)? Guess I'll need to invest in a load more OPK's to work out exactly where I am rather than being able to second guess where in the cycle to start using them.

Anyway that what I meant to say earlier, but I realise I somehow left out, was that it although the test was definately negative after three minutes, when I went out for the day I forgot to throw the test away first. Lo and behold, when I got home there it was showing a faint positive line. Not even all that faint really - sort of half strength. Talk about mixed signals.

Mosegirl sorry to hear about AF. GillW your cycle sounds very confusing - have you had this sort of on/off spotting / bleeding before? BeckiF sorry to hear about your Nanna. It's not surprising you're feeling down at the moment - hang on in there. I hope you're right about your hormones kicking in - it's about time they did. AF hasn't arrived for me yet, although was due on Saturday if this month was like last month. I feel at a bit of a loss not having used OPKs or temping this time. As it was an off-month for me and I have been feeling pre-menstrual I don't know what is going on - I even did a test this morning, which of course was a BFN. I'm sure it's just my body playing tricks.

GillW · 17/05/2004 20:56

Azure - no have never had this before, but then it's been a while since I've had a cycle anywhere near this long. More typical lately to get OV about day 10 or 11, and AF about day 21/22.

ChaCha · 17/05/2004 22:41

BeckiF, just wondering how you are today? Thinking of you x

Am CD19 (i think) and already get the feeling that it is not going to be my 'lucky cycle'. Feel that life would not be the same if i did not have to go through this crap every month! It has become a part of me and my routine. I mean, what would i do with myself?!?

AF is in for it this cycle!!!! Grrrr!

Azure · 18/05/2004 08:57

GillW is it worth doing a test just to know where you are, or are you pretty sure it is / has been AF? AF arrived for me last night - 2 days late just to keep me on my toes. ChaCha, I agree - what would we do with ourselves if it weren't for ttc!

BeckiF · 18/05/2004 12:07

Hi I'm still here. Still no AF and I've been comfort eating for the last few days too which is bad

Probably going south tomorow/Thursday and the funeral is Friday so I'll not be around for a few days.

Good luck to those still TTC, it has to happen for some more of you soon xxx

ChaCha · 18/05/2004 17:18

Thoughts are all with you BeckiF.
We will look fwd to hearing ur news on ur return. Keep ur chin up

Schmozer · 18/05/2004 19:09

So sorry to hear about your sad news BeckiF. Will be thinking of you this week.

Also sorry about the AFs, but hopefully I can inspire you with my BFP

Yes, I'm going to be a Mummy and can hardly stop grinning. I shall sprinkle baby dust liberally on you all and hope it's catching.

Azure · 18/05/2004 20:22

Get busy then ladies! Typical i had to have the flu after ovulation was FINALLY spotted!

gold123 · 18/05/2004 22:46

Wow, brilliant news congratulations you jammy devil !

I have been feeling negative about my situation over the last couple of days, wondering whether its all worth it, wondering what alternatives I can do rather than have a baby, I can't find a good enough reason to give up trying. Its soooo good to hear good news - I'm so jealous. Take care x

futurity · 19/05/2004 07:56
