AF arrived:

No-one yet!

AF got me this morning. One day early, how rude,
Congrats Frolic!! x

very interesting frolic!

My AF is due from today. CD25 (cycle quite irregular, usually 24-28 days or thereabouts). Strong AF-like cramps last night and I woke at 4am like I have been doing for the last few days - very odd for me. No bleeding or spotting as yet. BFN on IC too. I have been having heartburn and fatigue but tbh I just want this cycle over with so I can get on with the next cycle (ov date will be around Christmas!).

We have been given a (new) tube of pre-seed from a friend who fell pg before using it. We didn't try it this month but may give it a go next month! Ever since DC1 was born I have had my heart set on a September baby. No pressure then obviously .

Oh my God, HUGE congrats Frolic!!! I am so pleased for you. That's amazing!! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.

Thank you all for your congrats. I don't think I've stopped looking at my ring yet.

Af arrived yesterday at 2 days late, but, this month at least, it's impossible to feel too bad about it when I'm bouncing about my gorgeous fiance ?? Think I'm going to give soy a try this month.

I'm going to hop onto the January bus, but as usual will keep checking in on everyone else. Good luck all!!

Morning

Pikz, sorry for the bfn and good luck with op. Will you poas on the day just to be sure?

Genni, it totally sucks when you feel like af is on its way. I'm going to keep fx for you that it doesn't arrive.

Victoria, I really hope it's option c for you, fx

Well the cb ov test had a round circle so no ov yet. But the line on ic is quite dark so I'll just keep poas and dtd

Morning all!

Victoria option C... FX!!!

Shoot the Moon we are on our second month using preseed now, good luck with yours!

Sorry Scottish good luck on January bus! How rude indeed!!

After Saturday and Sundays light spotting today I have a big temp rise.. However I had this last month too at this cycle day now 9dpo.. Just want next few days to fly in so I know! ... I feel really pre AF with the spotting and pressure in my pelvis.. I think I'm fooling myself hoping otherwise...

Thank you sparkly and hope it works for you too! I find 8dpo the worst sort of time really - hope you get through it with sanity intact!

Thanks shoot ain't much sanity left here!! Ha ha. Trying to look on it as... If AF arrives - in the blur of christmas the following week, technically will only be a week or so until trying again...I think (like probably everyone on this thread!) the idea of a Christmas BFP was just even more possible than a normal month trying! Time will tell...! Oh and I like preseed, I've read a lot of good reports. Just dont use too much the little tube doesn't last long!!

Sorry af got u Scottish and quietly :-(

Cramps and spotting getting heavier now. My initial excitement of implantation has gone leaving me feeling angry. If this is af 5 days early then it ruins my plans for fertility treatment in Jan. They are closed over Xmas and new year so next cycle would have started Jan 17th. I'd already swapped my late shifts and Saturday shifts to fit in around the schedule. Dh is booked in for his sample test Jan 13th to make sure it was still alright for treatment to go ahead for me a few days later. Now its all messed up! Jan 13th was the earliest they take sperm samples after being closed over new year! Might have to wait til Feb now!

Victoria I know what you mean about implantation excitement- I had the same.. But starting to think thAt AF is just on it's way early. However lets not lose hope yet... Signs are so similar it might be the one! sorry that's so frustrating for you about treatment, But if this isn't the month, I hope the holidays give you time to rejuvenate and 2015 WILL bring the BFP for you!

Awww thanks sparkly fingers crossed for you too. I'm just so frustrated by it! Going out for a pre Xmas drink with my bezzie tonight (im not working tomorrow!) I'm having !

sparkly you are absolutely right. And we weren't going to try at all until next cycle so this one has just been a freebie really. I have bargained with myself that we will go all out for the Dec cycle and then I will step away from the threads a bit. It actually seems to make post-ov seem even longer when I post about it every day!

Good luck though :)

victoria sending massive sympathy your way - it is always so awful when plans go awry with something completely random. My DH works away a lot (and I do quite a bit) so changes in my cycle or our work can very quickly mean that we miss the window entirely. It's gutting!

Afternoon all,
frolic congratulations!! That is brilliant news. Confirmation too that FRER are the undisputed queen of the tests!
Sorry for the spotting victoria fx it doesn't screw up timing. Annoying they break for Christmas for so long, do the clinics not realise the torture in enduring delays on this. Really hope timings work out okay.

So I've had massively painful cramping today. Only 4dpo (I think, assuming I ovulated) so too early to be anything exciting, but ow-ee! Not had them this painful since my teenage years. Think it's probably a clomid side effect.

Sorry AF arrived Scottish

And quietly congratulations!!!!

Hi spinning how are you? sounds like ov is imminent! I'm resigned to AF coming now, just wish my BFP would hurry up now, I think I've been very patient!

victoria I hope it's not AF. is there no way you could get your treatment started a bit earlier? Really feel for you.

Sparkly hope af holds off.

Victoria really hope your spotting is implantation. You will be pregnant and/or giving birth in 2015. Try to stay positive.

I thought this month would be easier with Christmas keeping us all distracted but it seems we are all too organised and have too much thinking space. I'm drinking this month as I need some enjoyment.

Beautician I thought it be easier too but I actually feel it's worse this month!! Think because I was just expecting a Christmas miracle...!! Today I have brown blood quite a bit and it's still 5 days till AF arrives, but I also had a huge temp rise... But think this happens on this day most months so sadly I feel in out ...

I know what you mean about posting Shoot but then it's a double edged sword as sometimes feel it's really helpful as my husband is really laid back about it all and just knowing that others are going through similar makes a difference I think. It's not like I can really speak to family or friends as they don't know we are TTC! Ah it's a minefield eh!

Victoria enjoy your night out! Well deserved!!

Sparkly, fx it's a positive sign for you.

Victoria, how annoying that you may miss your slot. You would think they would be used to working round changing dates. Enjoy your night out

Genni, you really do deserve your bfp, you've been very patient. I'm quite sure 2015 will be the year for our sticky bfp's! I'm ok thanks, hoping I will ov soon or we'll miss next cycle as Dp has a work training course.

Oh forgot to say that my 8 year old ds asked yesterday when our baby would be coming, he's so desperate for a little brother or sister.

I was just coming online to pretty much write what victoria said! this:

"Urgh spotting and cramps just started :-( few possibilities....

A- ovd earlier than I thought and its af starting (unlikely as had pos opk and pain)
B- messed up short lp and its af starting (possible as had 11 day lp in Sept although rest of the 2 years ttc its been 14 days)
C- implantation!! omg omg!"

I'm too 10dpo and had slight brown pink mucus just now :(

I've had 12 day lp before now so i'm guessing AF on its way!

xx

Lots of us seem to be spotting way too early this month :-( I seem too crampy for it to be anything else. Mine is brown, pinky is meant to be the colour of implantation isn't it? So maybe yours is nutella?

The clinic is shut from next Monday until Jan 13th! Hubby's sa is the first appointment of the new year! They don't start any rounds of treatment in Dec! I know all clinics don't shut as one of my 10 month plus ladies is starting her ivf Dec 28th! If af comes early then the next one could be Jan 12. Have to wait til mid Feb then. I'm so impatient!

I'd say it was more pale brown than pink but who knows. I case of wait an see AGAIN.

Ahh nutella and victoria it's soooo frustrating!! Mine is def light brown and exactly the same as what I got pre AF only it's usually only a couple days before where as this is 5 days! Limbo land is not fun!!! I keep holding on to hope but don't know it's false or not!!

Weird nutella as I too had positive OPKs two days in a row on day 13 and 14 so FF put me as ov on day 15.. So how can this be so early!!!

confused! Ahhhh

Evening ladies sorry been gone a while congrats to the good news booo to the bad started a new therapy this month no poas no monitoring just gave dh 100 quid to spend on love honey normally ov is day 10 so far due to the stuff dh brought had laugh opening the boxes we have done day 7, 8 and 10 and a definite possibility tonight tell you ladies if loved ones are getting bored of the got to do it tonight syndrome get shopping and you will not regret it

....and AF spotting has arrived. So tomorrow should be CD1, I hope. January bus for me.

Good luck to those who are still waiting!

Nutella and Victoria, so frustrating for you both, will keep fx.

Ruby, what is love honey? Have I missed something.....feeling very old that I don't know what it is
