[nightandthelight]

April was a lucky month, let's make May even better :) BFPs ahoy!

######STATS######

Separate tab for our lovely BFPs :)

Evening all. Huge congrats Mrs.

Not long home from work and already tucked up in bed. Haven't felt great for a couple of days now. +ve opk on Saturday and dtd; dp out late Sunday and opk -ve but thought was because urine was very dilute. Yesterday was working all day and got irrationally moody over little things - took myself to bed and didn't even fancy my glass of wine!! Opk -ve.

Today had (tmi alert) episodes of pain and totally liquid stool whenever I ate anything. Opk is -ve again. Feeling low emotionally but also had a long working day with little free time so can't decide if it's a bug; hormones or just me in a funk.

I didn't expect to have such a short window - went from faint line to strong and then to no line in 3 days of testing. Guess I'm in my tww now but not confident. Also booked in next week for D21 bloods for progesterone levels.

Sorry for the rambling moany post.

hi remember sri you are having such a sucky time! you never though tho - that's what I find difficult. I have just had my day21 test last Friday - don't know when I should call for the results? also have blood tests booked for Monday but am hoping I don't need them. AF due sat but I have irregular periods

maybe CONGRATULATIONS!!! So exciting!

sorry you're not feeling great remember That actually seems like quite a long window. When I was using opk's if I didn't test at least twice a day I'd often have months whether I didn't ever see a positive line as it comes up and goes down so fast.

So my dilemma:
I'm on evening of dpo 13. Af was due today I usually start overnight so was expecting it evening of dpo12.
I have just two IC tests left. I tested yesterday but held off today.
With dc1 I didn't test positive until the evening of dpo15.
I'm off on holiday Thursday morning (dpo14).

Should I use up one of my tests tomorrow morning and take the other on holiday? or do I just wait it out?

Hope you feel better soon remember!

Oddly My clearest 2nd line was on a midstream cheapy from either home bargains or b&m (white with a pink tip cover). So if you had chance, you could pick up a few spares to take away with you if needed. The FRER line is clear, just thin.

If I were you oddly I'd be POAS now! But that's me! Impatient like my mum! Everything yesterday! Perhaps if you can wait? Or like u said do one tomorrow and one on holiday? If not u might end up POAS on the flight in those teeny tiny toilets with a bit if turbulence thrown in for good measure! Oh no no

Hello everyone and welcome to anyone new. I haven't been online much since my last post so apologies for everything I have missed. I have read back as much as possible while fending off a curious husband who keeps asking what I am doing as I draft replies to people .

FlatWhiteToGo Sorry I missed your message. Um I am kind of obnoxious although usually unintentionally. I'm usually eloquent and diplomatic and then something slips past the filter and i look like an enormous bitch .

Teeniedeenie Sorry to hear of your mmc. I had a cp in December which was crap enough, but pales in comparison to yours . Like you, I have needed a few months ‘off’ and am now getting back on the horse so to speak. My cycles have also been weird but hoping they will start behaving themselves asap.

Trixieray Hi you. Lovely to ‘see’ you too although shame circumstances aren’t better for the both of us. I have been lurking though every so often over the last few months to see how you have been getting on as you were with me last year when I started on this journey so we are both due some good news (apologies for potentially freaking you out with my stalkerish tendencies). Chandlers also had a BFP and then a mc at the same time as me so I have been looking out for her too. So sorry you’ve been baby bombed .

Huge congrats MaybeMrsMum2016. All the best for the pregnancy.

CD10 for me today and dtd despite negative opk. I was supposed to start temping again this morning but am out of the habit and forgot to take it when I woke. By the time I remembered it was too late of course. The good news is that my husband is on holiday from work for the next two weeks so should hit peak fertile time nicely all going well. The bad news is, he is getting under my feet and interupting nice quiet days to myself .

WOOPOOOOO CONGRATS MAYBE!!!!!!!

Boo for af trixie fx this is the lucky cycle for you

Hugs rememberall hope you feel better soon

oddly I would wait if I were you, maybe do a test on holiday and see? If it's a negative at least you will be on holiday to cheer you up

thegrandhighwitch sorry to hear about your mc and that your journey is taking longer than expected. I always find that having dh off work is a lovely idea in theory, in reality though it's a very different story! Mine used to work evenings but has different hours now for a while and I get annoyed with him sharing my sofa now, I want to spread out haha

Thank you for your kind words Carltonlives. The plan was for us to be moving during his two weeks off but we didn't manage to find a place so now it is two weeks of doing not an awful lot. Trying to maintain the positives though in that we can dtd while dc are at school, plus he can make a start on redecorating the bedroom which is woefully in need of it. I'll keep him so busy, he'll be begging to go back to work lol.

night and dizzy and pulpi am thinking of you, sending all sorts of positive BFP vibes.
Sammy I hope you are well – so happy to hear that you are going privately for your hycosy! I hope all goes well and it’s as straightforward as possible.
southy I hope you’re still lurking around somewhere and that everything’s going well, lovely. You must be due to test soon?
aux! Fab news about your lp. Gutted for you that af came but fx that next month it will be even longer and result in a bfp.

Trixie I’m so sorry for af. Fingers crossed for you for a positive first round ivf, please keep us updated.
parsnip and boris hope you are both doing well too x

Can't wait to see more bfp's on here.

Trixie sorry AF arrived. Fx crossed for this cycle but if not you're straight onto the IVF. Your bfp's isn't far now

Well my in laws arrived (unexpectedly) at 7.30 and left just before midnight. Just finished clearing up and now in bed with a cuppa. I'm absolutely shattered and I've got work tomorrow. DH is downstairs finishing his assignment and I've asked him to come upstairs quietly when he's done as I don't want him to disturb DD.

dizzy they what?!!! How rude?! Do they not know you have work?

Congratulations Maybe!! Yay!

More BFPs please ladies, the TWW is driving me crazy this cycle.

Rememberall hope you feel better soon (good name by the way).

Thanks all. Slept right through the night - and my alarm!! Good thing I set it early for a shower and coffee!! Feeling a bit more human this morning, shoulder still feeling the effects of Friday's injection but not needed and pain relief for it which is good. Stomach more settled but will stick to bland food today. DP an angel, simply mentioned I'd seemed 'off colour' for last couple of days and no mention of irrational moodiness!!

Been thinking CDs and realised that the +ve opk was on cd9 and im only on cd13 today. Last month was a 25 day cycle with +ve opk around cd13 and the month before was approximately 30 days. If I'm going to have a 13 day lp like last month then my cycle is going to be very short this month and I might not make it to d21 bloods!!

I wish things weren't so difficult to plan around!!

Temp still above cover line but only just, think it might go under tomorrow :(

Congratulations maybe

Thanks coffee, I'm sure it will be ok
Xx

AF feels as though it is on its way! Oh well my CB trial stuff has arrived and I am going to pick up some epo. Brazil nuts are in the cupboard so will throw everything at next cycle!

I hope it's not the witch night, FX for you. Brazil nuts are tasty though so at least if it is the damn witch maybe you could have chocolate-covered ones as a treat?!

If it's the witch will have chocolate coated everything Banana

Morning all

Hi Grand, thank you for your message. I'm sure we were on the same 'bus' at one point during sept/oct last year. I'm so sorry to hear about your CP in Dec. I can relate to how you must have felt over the festive period with that going on and I know it took alot of strength to get through it at such a 'happy' time of year, you are very brave. My OH has also only started to talk about ttc recently so think he needed a bit of time to get over the mmc, and if I'm being honest I think my body needed a bit of time to get back to normal. Really hope both our cycles settle down and our BFPs are just around the corner... Your ttc holiday fortnight sounds like a bloody good start!

Oddly Did you decide to test again this morning?

Night FX your temp stays up, fingers and toes crossed for you!

CD22 for me and a blank smiley on my cb opk so offcially in the 2ww. If AF gets me this month, I really hope it's a little earlier. These 37 day cycles are getting me down!

Anyone due to test today?

Coffee they know I work but they think nothing of staying at each other's houses gone midnight!

Night boo for temp drop. I really hope it's not AF.

Remember yay for a good nights sleep. Pleased you're feeling better.

Morning lovely ladies!

I hate it so much when guests outstay their welcome dizzy and I'm always conscious not to do the same when I'm at someone's house. I would actually be falling asleep on the sofa by midnight!

Glad you are feeling better rememberall, I feel better this morning as well although still very tired

I'm sorry for almost af night you never know though, af symptoms and preg symptoms feel identical. I remember feeling day-before-af feelings for about 3 months when I was pregnant.

Still no af for me! Last month was a 27 day cycle and I'm now on cd30! Just hurry up already!!

Hope everyone else is good and fx for those testing soon. Did you test oddly?

Have you POAS Carlton?

We weren't trying this month night! No split condoms either.... It's got to be my body playing tricks on me because I'm excited to get this period over so I can try!!

Sorry! Fx it arrives soon :)

No need to apologise! It's just Sod's law that the one month I can't wait for af and its being so slow!!!
