Sorry to hear that want but great attitude and glad your first cycle has been a normal length Smile

Boohiss to the AFs and BFNs. Sad

Ohlordy, I'm still temping, but only because I had a chemical pregnancy last month and I'm scared this one might be too. I want to see my temps rising - and if I get a big drop, I know what's going on. I want another week of high temps and positive tests and then I'm stopping as I'll be past where it happened last month.

I said I wasn't going to test again until tomorrow, but I can't help myself. Did another FRER this morning and the positive line is slightly darker than yesterday's. My temp is still climbing too. I'm not out yet but I definitely want to see a much darker line before I feel comfortable. 13dpo today.

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 17/10/2014 09:54

Yesterday's test on the top, today's on the bottom. I'm not imagining that the line is a bit stronger, am I? They both look really faint in this picture but they're stronger to the eye. This is a shitty ipad camera.

Hi, I'd you have a short luteal phase (10 days) should I test earlier or later than average? I always see people poas at about 10dpo and say that's early but that would be when at is due for me. Does that make sense?

I'm only 5 dpo and impatient already!

Nutella, I wouldn't test any earlier. It will still take a similar amount of time for the egg to fertilise, implant and for production of HCG to kick in at a level you can detect.

You're lucky in a way as you'll have more of an idea sooner, if AF is late for you, but I reckon you'll get exactly the same test results as the rest of us with longer luteal phases if you test at 10dpo.

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 17/10/2014 11:26

Hehe, cross post with Sunbathing.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 17/10/2014 11:27

Spinning wasn't my dh. He did have a few performance issues but we never got round to soft cups. I was worried they might go wandering!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 17/10/2014 11:30

There are some lovely an threads and fb groups, there's s penis dragon group and detective headed up a pregtober fb group, with June babies, but think July babies would be just as welcome. Grin But I still think the bus is best personally.

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 17/10/2014 11:38

Yeah, nobody is kicking me off this bus yet. I bought a ticket, goddammit, and I'm traveling to the very end of the route.

nutelladipper · 17/10/2014 11:42

Thanks some and sunbathing I'll try my hardest! I'm a poas addict!

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 17/10/2014 11:46

Me too. I started to add up the cost of all the tests I've used over the past two months and then I stopped because it was getting scary...

Right! shouts at self I need to stop twatting about on t'internet and do all the things I need to do.

ohlordyplordy · 17/10/2014 12:00

Thanks terrys and biscuit - I think i'm going to carry on temping until my AF would have been due, then give myself a talking to and quit!

Dreamingoutloud · 17/10/2014 12:07

Thank you everyone Flowers

Somesort that line today is definitely darker Smile

I'm not ready to give up this month yet, I used cb digi and cb easy this morning, considering spending more money Confused and buying a frer to use either tomorrow or Sunday?

spinningirl10 · 17/10/2014 12:25

Wanttobe sorry af's arrived, as you say it's fab that your cycles have returned properly after so long on the pill.

MrsE, sorry it was Linda who's dh used to do that Grin

Genni, hi, hope you're having fun in Berlin and fx there's a little bean settling in for you.

Dozygirl · 17/10/2014 12:37

Sorry for all the bfns and af's. Good luck to others still to test.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 17/10/2014 12:51

That's ok Spinning it's so hard to keep track of everyone!

So I bit the bullet and went to the dr. As I thought was out of catchment so had to go to my local practice. Can't book in until next Friday as a new patient. Can't get an apt anywhere with anyone it would seem. So was talking to the dr receptionist and she said so how many do you need to book in for...8 I replied. Oh lord the whole queue groaned. I asked if there was any way of hurrying me an apt up as I was pg. More groaning from the queue and receptionist just rolled her eyes. I have to call at 2.15 and make an apt as a temporary patient. She asked my address and I told her!!! Oh she goes you live next door to me. Suddenly started being nice. So the upshot is my neighbours know I'm pregnant and therefore so will all the other neighbours and basically the whole of Eastbourne before I know it. Cats out the bag!!!! And the worst bit is I live next door to a Dr receptionist!!!! Argh!!!! Angry

Frolicacid · 17/10/2014 12:56

Snap dreaming - I had a BFN this morning after dreaming of a BFP. My AF isn't due till tomorrow as well, do I guess we are still in with a chance.

I'm feeling really nauseous today and have been a little bit sick. SYMPTOM? Or a side affect from yesterday's flu jab?!

Sorry you are out want - I love your positive attitude.

Today's line definitely looks stronger today some.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 17/10/2014 13:00

mrs e! What are the chances!! Well hopefull she won't tell anyone as that I patient confidentiality. Hope you get seen soon, I had similar problems signing up to a doc here when I moved 6 months ago. Let us know how you get on :)

The witch is a bitch... I had forgotten what normal af is like! The cramps are paiiiiinnnnful. And I have erupted in a million spots. I definitely am having my longed for Friday night Wine tonight :) pre-warned DH he will have to look after me Grin
