Where does one purchase a ticket for the Feb bus?
Damn AF came this morning.
I was all, it is ok, positive thinking, this means that your cycle was 28 days which is good as I was on the patch until November blah blah blah
Then I get this email from Ovia:

"Do you mind answering?
Are you on your period?"

AngryAngryAngryAngry

Too soon Ovia! Too soon!!!!!

Starky test already! Smile

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 08:13

And my day is off with a bang, the nurse has called in sick so they've rescheduled my blood test for Monday 9:55. Grrrrrrr.... 😧😧😧

leoniethelioness · 08/01/2016 08:19

Sorry to hear that, choc

Still no AF? Remind me again, have you had any cycles since coming off hormonal contraception?

KatOnATinRo0f · 08/01/2016 08:33

Lol @ ovia.

Leave us alone already! Stark take that bitch out with one of your boobs!

Bugmuncher · 08/01/2016 08:41

jamjar that's a great comparison!

Ni4444 · 08/01/2016 08:43

choc that sucks!!! What bad timing for her to be sick!!! I'd be boiling with frustration! Hope you're doing something nice to survive the day!

I think AF may be here...

LillianFullStop · 08/01/2016 08:51

Oh no choc that would be so frustrating!

Evergreen15 · 08/01/2016 08:56

Sorry to hear choc! The wait :-( sucks

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 08:56

Mega frustrated. Still no signs of AF and had nothing since I stopped the mini pill (zeletta) on Dec 12th leonie ... I also conceived my son within a week of coming off cerazette back in 2011

Feeling violently sick this morning! May go and attempt to sleep it off!!

KatOnATinRo0f · 08/01/2016 09:00

Choc have you tried a FRER that I hear everyone banging on about??

I haven't had any symptoms or lateness to warrant looking into getting these as my AFs have come successively early since stopping OCP but if I had your symptoms id probably be POAVOS (pissing-on-a-variety-of-sticks)

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 09:05

Yep! One negative, one a debatable squinted!

Got positive results with superdrug and tesco.

Chemical pregnancy was expected... but I should have started bleeding by now hence the Dr's want a blood test and the midwife didn't even want that!

So so confused. I mean surely tests can't NOT detect HCG?! A couple of friends have said they've know the odd person it's happened to but just doesn't feel likely! :-/

sampypants · 08/01/2016 09:12

Well that didn't last - woken up to AF this morning.

Anyhow, looking ahead to 3rd Feb. At least these shorter cycles mean I've got more regular chances Hmm

LaraG13 · 08/01/2016 09:12

So frustrating choc. Came across this old thread, which you may have seen: www.circleofmoms.com/stay-at-home-moms/how-many-of-you-got-negative-pregnancy-test-results-but-were-actually-pregnant-504047

LaraG13 · 08/01/2016 09:14

Sorry to hear about AF sampy, evergreen and maybe ni.

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 09:16

lara thank you for that ... that's really interesting!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 08/01/2016 09:31

I'm due af on Tuesday, so unless I come on before then, I'love test Tuesday or Wednesday. I can always manage to eek it out once the actual day arrivesI still don't think I am, pragmatically thinking, I think I'm just noticing things I didn't notice so much before, like feeling sick before af, usually I'd just assume I was cold/fluey, now it's a symptom! Do you know what I mean?

choc thats so annoying! Ooh that's frustrating! Flowers
Sorry to all those who have got af! Chocolate have some chocolate and wine! Wine

firstgo1984 · 08/01/2016 09:53

Any other cervix checkers here? When do you normally notice it becomes high? Before or after EWCM appears?

KatOnATinRo0f · 08/01/2016 10:23

I have no idea about cervix positioning. I always ignore that bit of Ovia. How do you know how high it is??

LisaTheGreek · 08/01/2016 10:44

Agree with Kat - I have no idea how to know if it's low, medium, or high. How do you decide? Is it just a matter of checking regularly until you notice the difference on your own?

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 10:58

Hi ladies just woke up from a bloody awesome nap feeling less frustrated and stabby

I don't check or chart my cervix position. I can just feel if it's higher when we dtd lol

I have woken up with a new mindset:

If I am, I don't need a blood test to confirm and it won't change just by having a blood test delayed (if if the worst happened I'd rather think it was possibly AF than a MC)

And if I'm not, we'll I just got another 3 days to get upduffed and HCG in my system... I'm not oup until AF shows her face. Right...?!

Stick with me ladies. Encourage my craziness 😂😂

Ni4444 · 08/01/2016 11:13

You're not out til you're out! Grin

Feefeefs · 08/01/2016 11:27

Keep it up choc PAM!

LillianFullStop · 08/01/2016 11:32

hear hear choc and ni! We're not out til we're out! i agree with you, a delay in your result won't change the fact you're upduffed - if you are, you are you just don't know it yet :P

Had spotting on Wed but still no AF even after a BFN yesterday but I haven't taken myself out of the running yet!

Kat I'm moving my test date to Tuesday 12th!

LanadelLol · 08/01/2016 11:46

Hi girls hope everyone's well today.
Sorry if I have missed anything but I was skimming over all the 'list discussions' lol.
Choc good luck with your bloods today, hopefully they arrive quick sharp!
Lillian I am due today and had a negative during the week too but nothing yet except a tiny bit of spotting so hopefully that didn't mean much too. Fingers crossed anyway!! X

Chocaholic88 · 08/01/2016 12:02

lana they phoned to cancel at 8am this morning. It's now Monday!
