AF arrived:

No-one yet!

Good morning! 7 dpo here and nothing going on, which is unsurprising considering I don't think we are in with a chance this cycle. It's nice not to be symptom obsessed!
I thought I was starting with a cold on Monday night, but it didn't develop into anything. I'm so pleased as I don't have time to be ill this week

Tentative congratulations tooth and tessie. Fx those lines get stronger.
nordic, I'm sorry that things are so confusing for you. I'm crossing everything that you have a sticky bean after all you've been through. I hope you manage to get some medical advice today. Best wishes

I hope everyone else is doing ok.
blueberry, how are you feeling? Has it sunk in yet? I hope it's all going smoothly.

Have a good day everyone.

X-posts missmrs. Sorry it looks like AF is imminent. Good news about your lp getting longer.

Morning all, 5dpo here and all is quiet. Blew my nose this morning and had bloody snot. Just been googling and now trying to get a grip. Not even implanted yet so almost certainly not a symptom. Note to self -stay away from Dr Google!

Sending hugs to all those in the tww.

nordic fx you get some advice today. Must be so frustrating.

Omg! More BFPs! Excellent Christmas bus this is turning out to be

I'm manic symptom watching, but for OV! We DTD every day since Saturday & should OV today but haven't had a +ve OPK (although I'm terrible at them & always drink a lot & can't go more than 2hrs hold!). I've had achy boobs & can feel super tiny, warm cramp down there, had soft cervix & a lot of watery cm so hoping to see temp rise soon! DTD again tonight for good luck & then every other day if still no sign of OV, don't think we could keep it up (or him! It'll snap off!)

I know lots of you are experts on cm.Tmi question my cm is clear but with creamy bits in it what stage is this. I am on cd20 and prior to this I had clear cm which I thought was ewcm.:I usually have a 31 day cycle although last month was 35 days.

Its prob just some kind of transition mucus from clear to creamy beautician

I'm a weepy blubbering mass today. In work! Everything is setting me off! Had a crap few days what with yet more preg friend announcements and fertility appointment Monday. I think last night's reflexology brought it all bubbling up. As soon as she stopped touching my feet I wanted to cry! I've taken half day as I can't work like this!

Hi all,

Feeling a bit down so going to keep this short and sweet. I'm 13dpo, AF is due today and I had a temp dip today. It's still above the coverline but low compared to my last few temps. I don't know what to think

Hello all.

Congratulations to the bfps - best Christmas present in the world

Going to read back but I'm so sorry to those of you with confusing lines and not knowing what to think. You must be so confused.

Here I thought I was 5dpo, perfectly timed DtD, thought all was looking good. But flipping FF has just put my ov date out by 3 days meaning I'd only be 1-2dpo and we will have completely missed DtD just before and on ov date. I am ignoring what it says and going with the original prediction as it makes me feel better!! I wasn't even supposed to be properly temping etc this month but couldn't resist and now am a ball of stress! Gaaaah!

victoria how did your appointment go? Was it all ok?

Ah tessie did I see you may have had two lines? Did you do another test this morning. Fx for you

Thinking of you Tessiegirl and the rest of you feeling confused. I feel like a total nervous wreck today. I'm really sorry to keeping blabbering on about this because I know I've had some positive FRERs and it must be very frustrating for you guys to keep reading this. The problem I guess is that AF still isn't due until Fri/Sat and every other test I've done (haven't done any today though) has been a bfn (although I haven't done any CB yet). Plus I keep thinking AF is arriving - last cycle I had spotting on the two days before AF was due so every time I go to the loo today I keep thinking 'please don't let there be spotting!'. Getting loads of watery CM in knickers (sorry for TMI!) hence thinking AF arriving. I'm going mad!!!I've never wanted anything so much in my life and I know I'll be absolutely devastated if AF arrives having had a positive FRER. DP doesn't really get it - his opinion is 'Yes it'll be disappointing but we'll just try again next month...'.

Congrats to all the bfps, and sorry to those with af. Fingers crossed for you, Nordic. You must be super frustrated, and I hope you get some answers soon.

Tessie I'm sure the dip Will be fine. I've spent way too much time looking at 'charts like mine' and there are a suprising number of charts with a late temp dip but still with a bfp. Thinking of you.

Bfn today at 10dpo on an ic. Af due Saturday (my birthday) but apart from the horrible uti and subsequent antibiotics which make me feel out aanyway, I also have the beginnings of the evil headache of doom which usually heralds af. No other 'symptoms'.

Never mind. New year, New start, right?

HC899 fingers firmly crossed for you. I've never used a frer but everyone seems to swear by them. Will you test tomorrow? Thinking of you

Thanks Quietlyhopeful. I bought a twin pack of CB digital last night and am thinking of using 1 tomorrow (terrified!) as apparantly you can take them early and then if that's negative then I'll use the other on fri or sat...what my blood pressure must be up to I don't know!

Genni, def go with the original dates!

Congratulations to the new BFPs

I am 13DPO, have had a few BFNs on ICs (donated by a friend who didn't need them as she fell straight away) and temp drop for last few days. Having horrid cramps so expecting AF any sec.

Victoria, sorry you are struggling. I am too. I had a horrendous day yesterday, just could not cope with work and ended up snapping at colleagues and had a client hang up on me. Couldn't sleep last night and called in sick today even though I have loads to do. Hoping a day of taking it easy will help. Hope it helps you too

Quietly, it's still early so FX - you're absolutely right, new year new start!

I've read (praise Google) that the cb digitals aren't as sensitive and take, I think, 50miu of hcg to show a positive, so they might not help you out that much, though again, never used them so I don't know for sure. Hoping they do work for you. I imagine that seeing 'pregnant' show up will put your mind at rest. Fingers firmly crossed for you !

hc899 If you got a bfp on two frers then I would say thats a positive for sure and the only reason you got bfn on the other tests was because it was too early for those particular ones iyswim. FRER's pick up 12.5miul I believe and clearblues pick up 25miul. So a clearblue will pick up hcg around 48-72 hours after a frer due to the difference. Your positive tests were 2 and 3 days ago so a clearblue should pick it up today (or preferably with fmu tomorrow to be sure).

Thanks trixie. I Would be lying if I said I wasn't clinging to a tiny bit of hope, but I'm trying very hard not to be too disappointed. It's only cycle 4 for us, and I know there are so many people who have waited so much longer. I've got lots of plans this weekend so the tiny tiny plus side will be lots of alcohol to accompany said plans

Sorry all, I haven't given my stats yet, have I?

I've been taking agnus castus up until ovulation and Boots folic acid + vitamin D. I got positive opks on cd17 and 19 and FF confirmed ovulation on cd 19. We dtd on cd 14, 15, 17, 18, 19 and 21. My chart became triphasic from cd 27 (8dpo) and that was what made me poas on Friday - and bingo! The I.c. Was such a squinter that I couldn't even tell if it was pink or grey, but there was no mistaking the frer! Congrats to all the other BFPs and hope everyone else joins us soon! x

13dpo for me and af arrived this morning, gutted again was feeling positive as lp has gone from 9 to 13 days and thought this might have been it :( at least the b vits are doing their thing.

Does anyone's OH take vitamins, any recommendations?

Sorry to those in same position with af looming, feeling down today but will try again next cycle.

West Country girl how many months had you been taking vitex? Considering it myself for next month

Thanks for the stats westcountry and congratulations again.

victoria and trixie I called in sick today too so I'm totally with you girls. I'm on a course tomorrow and friday so my workload is ridiculous but I just needed a day hiding away from the world at home in peace to try and pull myself together! I seem to have a permanent headache too.
I really hope those ics are wrong - they often are you know.

I think it's this time of year - I seem to be finding Christmas very hard this year. In 3 of the Xmas cards we've received there have been pregnancy announcements! So now I am refusing to open anymore and am making DH open them - poor DH he's a proper saint at the moment.

Thanks all. No I haven't done another test this morning, although fmu is in a pot in the bathroom cupboard in case I feel the need (!). Not holding out much hope tbh, I have even put a liner in as expecting AF to show... I feel an absolute mess today. I have greasy hair and skin plus no less than 4 hard red painful spots scattered around my mouth and chin. They have been arriving over the last few days and all the time I thought a bfp was a possibility I didn't care if I had 100 spots on my face!! DH is trying to keep my spirits up and also keeps saying 'don't worry, we will just try next month' which of course we will but I just want to wallow in my self pity atm. Sorry to everyone listening to my moans.

hc899 I definitely agree what others have said regarding sensitivity of CB dig - they just aren't as sensitive as frer. I frantically googled about them after my bfn using one the other day and it seems that many people get false negatives using them until a bit further on. I would be trusting the frer tests you have done although can see how seeing the words 'pregnant' would make it seem more real. I also had two days of spotting before AF turned up last cycle which hasn't happened this month (so far) so fx for you!!

Blimey, I just read my post back and realised how depressing I sound and AF hasn't even turned up yet! I am so sorry! Telling myself to get a grip!

Don't worry Tessie, I found the first month really hard - hopefully you won't have to go through another month of trying

AF has arrived so I am out. At least she has scared off the evil PMT hormones so that's something.

You know what this means Victoria, my tarot was wrong, yours will be too.
Genni, sorry you're having a tough day too. I am sat on the sofa with a duvet and magazines and just polished off a tube of amaretto chocolate flutes which were supposed to be for Xmas...
