Yay Genni, we can be acupuncture buddies, I'm looking forward to giving it a go. She sounded lovely on the phone and it all seems very interesting. Looking forward to getting started, got to worth a shotGrin

Morning Grin

Wildfire, sorry af arrivedThanks

Well my temp has dropped again and is now below the cover line and af cramps are worse so I'm definitely out!
I like temping, next month I'm going to try not to poas and to just be led by my temps.

Boosk · 23/10/2014 07:15

spinning lovely, I'm so sorry af got you. Thanks Thanks Perhaps it was the soy giving you stronger symptoms. Will you carry on with soy next month? Wine

Boosk · 23/10/2014 07:17

Oops, and thank you treacle we shall see. Af due today but only cramping so far but I've had that since about 4dpo and I'd normally get a day or two of spotting first. Time will tell. Smile

Tranquilitybaby · 23/10/2014 07:19

Feminax are really good for AF crps Treacle, maybe try those. I think you're entitled to a duvet day really

Tranquilitybaby · 23/10/2014 07:19

Or cramps even

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/10/2014 07:29

Spinning - sorry your temps have dropped again hun. What dpo are you now?
Treacle - you absolutely deserve a duvet day!
I definitely think soy increases symptoms, my boobs have felt slightly tender since 3dpo!
Who's still left to test before the end of the month?

lucieloos · 23/10/2014 07:40

Hey English this is who is left. I can't believe how few bfps we've had. It's been a bad month! Surely we are due a few more before the end?

Choccywoccydodah · 23/10/2014 07:41

Morning. I'm still have browny pink and dripped into the loo this morning (overnight build up I guess). Sorry if tmi. Have had a good cry with dh and told him if this one doesn't work out, I don't want to try any more. It's just too hard going through this all the time. We have a perfect and absolutely gorgeous ds, and I don't think it's fair on him either.
Will let you know how the scan goes next Thursday but for now I'm hibernating.

spinningirl10 · 23/10/2014 07:44

Boosk, hoping that af stays away for you Grin

English, I'm 12dpo. I agree with soy making symptoms stronger. At least I know now, no symptom spotting for me next month!
Yes Boosk, I think I will take it but maybe take the slightly lower dose that I took first cycle. If it alters my ov day and therefore I get a much shorter cycle then this will probably be my last try with it.

TerrysNo2 · 23/10/2014 07:44

English and Spinning I read online that soy gives you more symptoms whether you are pg or not. Glad I know that now rather than getting excited in tww

TerrysNo2 · 23/10/2014 07:45

Spinning what dose did you take?

spinningirl10 · 23/10/2014 07:46

Choccy, sending hugs your way, thinking of you and really hoping it's going to be okThanks

MrsExtraOrdinary · 23/10/2014 07:57

Sorry to see more bad news this morning. Spinning have you considered starting your soy later in the month? Instead if cd2 or 3, perhaps day6. Taking it later is supposed to strengthen the egg from what i remember kitty's info stated. As you seem to ov early anyway, it might be a thought to start later in the month. My problem was I oved later and later. So taking it early worked for me.

gennibugs · 23/10/2014 08:12

Morning all.

My temp has dropped right down to just below the cover line. I got woken up by cramps this morning too so guessing AF will be here today/tomorrow. This sucks. I'm away with work, back home this evening and I don't know how I'm going to tell DH if AF does come. He's going to be so disappointed and dejected, we went to such lengths this month and last to DtD as much as possible.
I'm glad I didn't waste a frer now!

Thanks To all who have AF or think she's looming. Ttc is just rubbish sometimes.

gennibugs · 23/10/2014 08:13

choccy hugs and Thanks

broodylicious · 23/10/2014 08:28

Big congrats flower Thanks

So sorry for all the bfns ladies, yesterday was a bit of a low by all accounts Hmm It's so cruel that so many of you - me included - had such amazing symptoms of pg this month and then darn AF arrived anyway. Hate it!

choccy, I know I can't say anything that makes all this better for you because the fear takes over every fibre of your being. I just hope and pray that it does all work out for you and you get to introduce your ds to his brother or sister soon xxxThanksThanks

lucie, I absolutely love that from your acupuncturist. My preggo yoga teacher used to say that worries are prayers for something to go wrong and that kind of tallies with what your lady is saying re positivity and affirming that it will all work out in the end.

Cariad2014 · 23/10/2014 08:40

Sorry your temps have dropped Spinning and Genni. How utterly rubbish.

Choccy - sorry you're having to go through this. Keeping everything crossed for you and your little bean. Enormous hugs Thanks
