AF arrived this morning, CD34. Probably won't be a +ive november for me either as DH is going away for 2 months sometime later this month, so he probably won't be here for my fertile window, but ya never know (in the army the dates for things change all the time, so gotta keep hoping). Will keep using my Persona this month just in case we can fit one or two BDs in at the right time.

MrsMcJur So sorry AF came, at least you can open a tread "All aboard for Santa bringing a BFP!"

MrsMcJnr · 06/11/2006 10:16

Yup Babymad - I've opened the thread and called it exactly that

ready4motherhood · 06/11/2006 10:47

MrsMcJnr - So sorry to lose you from the November thread. (((hugs))). Probably only be a week behind you. Keep your chin up. Good luck with the job thing, perhaps when that gets sorted your stress levels can come down??

Hi everyone!

MrsMcJnr - so sorry about AF arriving for you - had a good feeling for you this month, but as you have been a very good girl this year, I am sure Santa will bring you what you ask for in December.

Saf1 - that is exciting! Keep us posted, but I would also hang on a bit and test again in case of chem preg.

Babymad - hope the tests are not too grim and shed some light on things for you. Sorry to hear about your dad and that things are bad between you and your mum. Do you still manage to see all your younger siblings?

Minshu - glad I am not the only boob-prodder! at doing it on the motorway!

doh, doorbell, bakc later

RachelRose · 06/11/2006 12:19

Hey Bodkin - whats going on for you at the moment - Is AF staying away?

Nixz · 06/11/2006 12:19

Hi all, thanks for your good thoughts xxx
I have just been up to the Drs with DD and asked about test results. The receptionist said that Thyroid was fine but day 21 (or in my case day 30!) was too high and i would have to call back later to speak to the dr.
Anyone any idea what they meant by too high??

Newlywedwonder · 06/11/2006 12:37

Hi all, I've been reading your thread and hope you don't mind me joining you. I got married about 6 months ago and my last depo injection wore off at the beginning of July. I was very fortunate in that my AFs started again on 13 August and I've been on a regular 28 day cycle since. My husband and I had already decided that once my AFs returned we would start TTC. My latest AF was due yesterday but there's been no sign. I thought my AF was on it's way yesterday as I had mild cramps in the morning but got on with some decorating and realised in the afternoon that the cramps had gone! About 10 days ago I felt quite light headed for a couple of days but I've been ok since. Today I have a 'dull' headache. I've not had any spotting but last week especially I noticed an increase in CM. Do you think that I could be pregnant? I'm thinking that I should go and buy a test but at the same time I don't want to be disappointed IYKWIM

cityangel · 06/11/2006 13:08

Newly that's a tough one. You're right to avoid being disapointed but you might be anyway even without testing? It may just be your first irregular AF it's a toughie. Fingers crossed for you.

nixz I Haven't come across this so fingers crossed the doctor explains things properly.

Hello to everyone else. Who's next to test, 2ww?

Bye to Mrs MC please keep the sleigh warm for us

I have just phoned the surgery back and the dr has put a message on my notes to say that i need to make an appointment to go in.
The receptionist would not book me a phone consultation as she said that she wasnt allowed as the dr had already written his comments and i would HAVE to make an appt - can i get an appt??? NO - i have to phone back later on in the week, typical, in the meantime i cant be referred to the womens hospital until all the results are back, time is of the essence here (grrrr)!!!!
I was just thinking though....if i have ovulated late this month, would that explain why AF is late and why the test results have come back high??
Just a thought
To all others who are on the 2ww - hugs to you and so much good luckxxxx

Thanks firststar - i can never get through in the mornings, phone is busy for about 1hr!

saf1 · 06/11/2006 14:12

Hi all,

Whats a chem pregnancy?

RachelRose · 06/11/2006 14:30

Hi Saf1 - Its where fertilisation occurs but for one reason or another the pregnancy doesn't last - I dont think implantation occurs either. As a result its possible to have an early positive on a pregnancy test but then negative ones. I hope that makes some sense. If you 'google' it you may get a better description. I think the chances of a chem pregnancy go once you are past AF due date, but you may need to check this.

So sorry about you being messed about Nixz - thats SO frustrating. I dont understand it very much I'm afraid, but hope you get your appointment soon. Other ladies may know, but would the levels be high if you were actually pregnant? Your AF is late isn't it?

Nixz · 06/11/2006 14:39

Would my progesterone levels rise if i was pregnant?
I did 2 pg tests at the weekend and both gave me a BFN.

Bodkin · 06/11/2006 15:39

Having a manic day and wanted to chat to everyone but no time as have visitors coming and have been trying to make cesspit of a house look nice!

No AF still (thanks for asking RR), have just ordered some pg tests off ebay, so will test tomorrow. Still feel completely normal, apart from mild cramping pains that feel like AF is just round the corner.

Thinking of you all, will chat more when less hectic!

Babymad2DS · 06/11/2006 17:08

Bodkin, I don't get to see my brothers and sister, my 3 oldest brothers have moved away but we talk over MSN. I had a horrid up bringing, to much to tell I would be here all day. For the past 3 years she been drinking morning, noon and night but she wont admit that, I don't love her anymore, I didn't love her alot before but early this year she said some horrid things I cant get out my head, there not things you would say to your child, as far as I am concern now she is just a woman that gave birth to me! And I cant forgive the way she treats my brothers, she is a very selfish person!

Babymad2DS · 06/11/2006 17:24

RachelRose and firststar I can understand where your coming from with that, my DH thinks the same and that there's nothing wrong with us, bad timing, a little stressed and yes my dad, But there all things that are unavoidable unfortunately, I cant help it. DH is worried due to that fact I cant cry about my dad, I believe to cry is to let go and admitting that he's dead, and I just cant do that, like the other day DH car was playing up and I thought about phoning my dad, and I had to stop and think, it upset me but I didn't cry, I cant! My dad was the ONLY person in my life that ever gave a dam about me, thank god I have my DH and my two children because I do not know where I would of ended up. Dh is taking me up to see his grave this weekend, I hope I can let go without feeling to empty! Soz for going on!

cutiebabies · 06/11/2006 17:39

Nixz · 06/11/2006 17:42

Cutiebabies - congrats
Wishing you a healthy pregnancy xx

Babymad2DS · 06/11/2006 17:57

Congratulations Cutiebabies and thanks for the info!

Nixz · 06/11/2006 18:25

update!!!
Got my results (dunno what they mean tho!)
levels are 633

MrsMcJnr · 06/11/2006 18:53

Congratulations Cutiebabies ! that's great news!

Bodkin - really excited for you, will be back to check on you and to see how everyone else is too

Minshu · 06/11/2006 19:40

Babymad - so sorry about the situation you are in. Life can be so unfair. I have to say that I never had too much trouble crying when I lost my Mum (12 years ago last Monday), and the emptiness is no worse for having let some of it go in tears. There is something I heard a year or so after losing her - that losing a loved one is like a massive hole opening up in your life. The hole will never get any smaller but, with time, you will learn to walk around the edges without falling in (so often). Sorry if this sounds a bit trite, but it kind of helped me. Hope that you get some good news soon. xx

Nixz - the Dr may need to see you again 'cos something got messed up with the test, but the message hasn't got through properly with the receptionist, or it could be high 'cos you are pg. Mine was 52 nmol/l last month (OK for ov), so 633 sounds odd, if they are using the same units. I don't know any more than that, though, so don't want to mislead you. Some of the receptionists at my GP's are better than others - the first one I spoke to about getting my results made me feel like it was none of damned business!!!

Sorry about your AF, MrsMc. Keep the sleigh warm - AF is still coming to me, I think. I certainly don't have any symptoms worth spotting (and boobs are only tender now 'cos I keep prodding the poor things).

Saf1 - will be keeping fingers crossed for you!!

Kyte, Bodkin - hope you are wrong about AF (hope I am, too).

Congrats, Cutiebabies!! It's wonderful to get such positive news.
