The craziness that is TTC after stopping the pill. On this thread we have 100 day cycles, do weeks of opks and send ovia into a fit with our ever changing fertile windows! Welcome.

Hi ladies,

This is the 2nd thread following on from

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2452018-Waiting-to-try-and-cycle-a-mess-from-the-pill

For everyone who is entering the madness that is Ttc after stopping the pill. Maybe to start the thread we could all post our stats, so we remember where everyone is at and don't have to check the old thread. X

Hey everyone just went to the toilet and when I whiped bright red blood was on the tissue gona wait till d morning see what happens of its implantation of af ?

Cookie... So? Has the frer been peed on?

Bobo get on the smep! Hope you catch the egg in a few days.

Shan, which Everway it goes I hope you get your answer quickly as this cycle has really messed you about. Fingers crossed for implantation but if it is AF at least you can move on to next cycle. X

Peed on the Superdrug one and its bfn (though I'm sitting here and tilting it & can swear there is some sort of shadow there. May crack it open!) I think I'll wait a few more days & if it's another bfn then I'll need to just go on holiday on Monday and await the witch, and test again when I come home! Xx

I'm officially going insane! It's been lying on windowsill about 25 mins now and the shadow is getting ever so slightly stronger. Possibly evap or I'm trying to convince myself it's something it's not! Have tried taking pics but bloody phone doesn't want to focus today!! Xx

Put a coin or something next to it and then your phone should focus!

Fx it is the faint beginning of a bfp for you 😊

Cookie, I hate to fuel the crazy but my superdrug early test had an evap on 9dpo... Absolutely nothing on it initially and then hours later I looked and tiny tiny evap, only if I tested it right held it up against the window, a light, my torch app like a mentalist. Don't want to get your hopes up as iv also had evap said in the pat, but Fingers crossed for you xx

Oh god must check my posts before pressing send... Evap line in the past. And tilted not tested!!

Ps get us a picture, even if it's rubbish! X

Ooh Sunny, I really hope it's the same scenario as you've described! I may potentially only be 9dpo! Pic is crap and after changing my obsessive line spying to a different location (front window), I now think I may have imagined it!

Hmmm tricky one, thought I could see a shadow of something before I opened it.. But can't really see much when opened or zoomed. The shadow kind of looks close to the right side of the window... But looks like the control line is to the left so the test line should be a bit skewed to the left too. My evap 100% wouldn't have shown up in a picture though! Xx

I know Sunny, it's too tricky to tell! I really thought I could see a shadow at one point but it may just be an evap as it didn't show until after 20 mins. I'm going to hold off now until Saturday morning and use a frer. I feel like I can't tolerate this wait any longer! Xx

Update girls so I went to toilet this morning and whiped and the bleeding has stopped? But iv trush n it's killing me wdf is going on? If I did ov on d 19/20 af shudnt be due till 4th of April? Ah I dno head is recked

Sounds like possibly implantation bleeding Shan. FX for you xx

Morning girls!

Cookie - i think i can see something but pictures are silly cant get the good quality you can in real life! are u going to try another one tomorrow fx its bfp for you and then a nice relaxing week away!

Well no sign of it coming back ? Like last night wasn't on my panties or dat just when I whiped it was bleeding bright red blood and was everytime I whiped so I taught it was af so put on a pad n nothing now atal? Gona test next week and again and I have a spare test 😅

You'll be glad you're OPKs are getting stronger Chapman! It's always good to see some lines developing on the OPKs! Keep us updated Mrs!

I feel so blah about it all just now! Wish I would know one way or the other. Going to hold off and test sat morning! Me and DH are holidaying with my parents and I really don't want to tell them I'm pregnant (or even that we're trying) until I know for certain. They'll know if I'm not drinking! Wish now it was just me and DH going now! Will pack some tests with me Xx

Cookie - I know hun.. i think this is where i been going wrong DTD at all the wrong times haha i mean we BD on tues, gonna BD tnight hopefully tomorrow if not defo sat & sun and might even be cheeky and go for monday haha! poor oh will be worn out!

bless you i really hope you get your bfp, ive logged on fbook today and another person on my fbook is pregant.. getting really pissed off now! :( xxx

Aw wow Chapman, yous deserve a BFP after all that BD'ing!! I might give smep a go next month if I have no success this cycle! Oh I know Mrs, it's a strange feeling when the Facebook announcement appears!! The green eyed monster inside me finds it hard not to come out!

Wel bfn on a frer today for me still quietly holding onto a glimmer of hope though. I think I'm going to take my last frer on holiday with me test again once the AF deadline has passed! I don't know if I'm imagining it but boobs have felt achy at times! Not sore to touch, but a dull ache every now and then. Who knows!! Xx

Hey everyone I cudnt help myself and tested and BFN :( but I think I tested to early gona try again in another week if AF doesn't show up? Still can't believe I still havnt got any?

As I used a cheap one

Chapman, have you managed a couple of temps now? I'm not sure.. I've never had ff tell me it's not recognised. Is your bb thermometer one that reads to 2 decimal places as that's what it's after... Also is it set properly to Celsius or Fahrenheit? I guess if it's on Fahrenheit setting and you put in 36 it will think you are dead! Haha, hope you've got it working.

Cookie. Are you testing this morning? Hope the holiday with the rents is going well. What dpo are you now? 11?? That's your longest isn't it? Are you confident of ov date? Fingers crossed for you.

Shan let us know how you get on with test next week, fingers crossed it's implantation.

Well I caved and did the clear blue digital this morning. 4+2 = pregnant 2-3 weeks so on track. Yay. I'm getting a bit of right sided sharp pain and cramps. The cramps don't bother me, the one sided pain is playing on my mind a little but it feels like what I used to get mid cycle so hopefully it's nothing. Il keep an eye on it.

Happy weekend everyone...iv had a shocking week at work, lots of staff sickness and iv racked up 9 hours of time owing in 4 days! so I'm very happy it's the weekend! Xx

sunny - ive done two of the belt proper haha.. the first one i did i didnt do proper as i didnt leave it in my mouth long enough for the beeps. so past two days ive had 35.81 and then this morn i had 36.50 will put it in to FF and see what it says. my opks have been negative though some i dont even have a second line but then again ive have been drinking lots of water but at one point held my wee in for 4 hours and my wee was light and the opks it was v faint so hopefully get a bit darker today do they just suddenly get darker when you have your surge? getting worried i wont get one or ive missed it but ive only recently as of wed started getting a bit of ewcm! fantastic news about the clear blue! does it feel real now! xx

cookie - i feel like im getting to the point now were i refuse to miss this egg this month! I feel happy for people im not a jealous person then im like why is it not me :( haha! how are u enjoying ur hol hun?

shan - try next week hun might be too early :) xx

Oh I know I'm silly but I dipped an ic this morning when I did the clear blue because I have like 40 of them... And it is so light it's barely there! The same as 13dpo! Yesterday's in the morning and afternoon were both the darkest iv had. I know the clear blue was fine but I'm worried they have got lighter. My urine was a bit more dilute this morning but now I'm worried my boobs aren't as sore. This baby stuff is a real mind f**k! In the picture the top is 13dpo, the 14dpo am and pm, 15 dpo am and pm and then this mornings! 😕.

Chapman, my opks had varying strength 2nd lines through my whole cycle, some barely there, some pretty dark. And I was always worried I'd missed it, but then it would suddenly go dark and positive and it was impossible to miss. You need a whole cycle of temps really to see any pattern and you will only get ov confirmed after 3 days of high temps. Xx

Photo😕

sunny - aw chick dont worry about it you are defo pregnant stop torturing yourself with ic sticks haha! when was you due AF? and if clearblue digi tells your pregnant then you must be there really good! Like you said if the wee is dilute your not going to get dark lines - its the same with opks the drker the wee the better! When i was 16 (and stupid) i got pregnant with my first ever boyfriend i had no symptoms what so ever until i started being sick and even then i was 9 weeks, and had nothing before. hope your ok lovely xx

thanks for the opk advice im like a mad women poas all day every day thinking ive missed it. high temps what am i looking for?? is there a number? xxx
