I don't think it necessarily means anything is wrong, just that a perfect period would be clot free. But hey no body's perfect and like you said Dozy - BFPs happen with or with out them.

MaMaPo · 08/10/2014 04:05

Hello all. Just belatedly marking my place but will be back properly soon. Blueberry, sorry for the blasted bfn and af. It's so gutting, isn't it?

MaMaPo · 08/10/2014 04:54

Sorry, me again.

5dpo, around the same as frolic and someone else whose name I have forgotten! Frolic, when will you test - if you will? My DH is away this weekend and AF due on Monday, but to be honest every cycle the blasted thing seems to come early. I'll be tempted to poas on Sunday even though I'll only be 9dpo.

Not sure what to think about stress. Sounds like the SMEP lady had good advice - chronic levels of stress probably aren't good but the normal concern about conceiving feels very stressful but maybe is OK? Bloody hope so.

Tried to invoke sod's law by going out today and shopping for a summer wardrobe but of course I didn't manage to find anything I liked which means no bfp this month. Grin

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 08/10/2014 06:15

mama same as me I plan to test next wed if u can hold out! Which will be 12dpo

MorningGrin

English, pleased you're enjoying the acupuncture. I've been reading up about it and have found someone quite close to me that is on Rita wests affiliated list so I'm hoping to give it a try soon. Interesting about the clots during af, I have some although not many.

I woke up in the night and thought it was time to get up so I took my temp then realised it was 3am!!

Bloody Nora you ladies are driving fast!! Almost lost you and had a little panicky perspiration! Grin

So sorry for the BFNs and the AFs arriving. It's a real shit stick when it happens.

I'm now on cd8 of what I hope is a proper cycle finally! Interesting what you say about pregnacare, I had been having awful periods/cycles recently, well not periods just spotting and since I've stopped pregnacare and just taking folic acid I've had a proper AF and I feel better - maybe there is something in it!
Also had my latest my touching session, whether it's working or not, I'm enjoying the reflexology!! She says she thinks everything is lovely at the mo and looks like it's back on track after the pill - we shall blooming see!

Anyone POAS today?

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 08/10/2014 06:50

We need some bfps! Line up poasers line up Grin you need to give me hope for next week!

Boosk · 08/10/2014 07:03

Thanks Dozy, I'll look into it. I realised I may also have invoked Sod's Law by entering a half marathon in the spring! Smile We shall see.

Good luck to anyone testing today, I want to see a line ladies!

MaMaPo · 08/10/2014 07:10

Oh yes iwant, you're the same dpo as me. I could hold out until Wednesday to poas but by then AF would be 2 days late so I would be pretty excited! Stupid short cycles.

Treaclepie19 · 08/10/2014 07:13

Morning!
Cd13 for me here and a flashing smiley. We've managed to dtd cd8, 10 and 12 so far.
I have my fingers crossed for us this month ladies :)

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 08/10/2014 07:13

I don't really know when my af is due as this is first cycle off the pill for me Hmm pre-pill I think I was 31 days, on pill I was 26 days so who knows! Thought I would go with the middle of 28 for now which is Wednesday I think! I may test on Sunday though as I have lots of ICs to pee on Wink

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 08/10/2014 07:15

Good going treacle fx this is your month! We haven't dtd since CD14 (now 21) as DH was away and I ov'd on CD16 so the pressure is off till af arrives now ;) or bfp

EnglishGirlsReturned · 08/10/2014 07:29

Morning! Smile
Despite this early hour I had the best nights sleep ever!!

Acupuncturist (can you tell I'm enjoying it) also mentioned something called The Stork - which is basically an expensive, gimmicky version of a soft cup! She said they're brilliant and would always recommend them to people as a final step before heading down the assisted fertility route! Basically get buying some soft cups ladies!

Boosk · 08/10/2014 07:29

Treacle cd13 for me too! Maybe we'll be poasing at the same time? I'm aiming for 23rd if I can hold out that long!

rubyrubes13 · 08/10/2014 07:31

Morning all 11 dpo af due now I think it's imminent not putting much hope on this month but I am firmly stuck on my seat and ain't moving as October bus could still be lucky for me x

Treaclepie19 · 08/10/2014 07:32

Me too Boosk! :) cycle buddies!

Cariad2014 · 08/10/2014 08:43

Oooh. Interesting news on the soft cup front English - I'm definitely a convert. Glad you're enjoying acupuncture so much. I can't wait to start going again as soon as we jump back onto the ttc bandwagon.

Good work on the dtd front Treacle - Really hoping Pregtober's your month.

Loving those attempts to invoke the law of sod - buying a Summer wardrobe sounds like bliss MaMaPo - it's horrid, wintry and rainy in this corner of the Northern hemisphere right now.

MrsGingerbread · 08/10/2014 08:59

Boots only had evening primrose oil with starflower oil. That sounds fun! It has to be worth a try. I'll start today. Down the hatch! :)

spinningirl10 · 08/10/2014 09:09

Cd6 and I have loads of cm, soy and epo must be working Grin

Who's next to poas? We need some more bfp's on this bus!

Blueberry, hope you're doing ok. How long do you take clomid for during your cycle?
