Loki your conservatory planning sounds fun. We're moving house at the moment so DH keeps bombarding me with pictures of sofas and bed frames. I'm rubbish at all that stuff.

Fx under! I'm due to test tomorrow or Friday too Grin

I'm convinced I should test later though as my cycles are long and I read that hcg levels can be lower due to that. Has that been the case for anyone else?

Thanks for asking Gx. I was fine that afternoon. Genuinely thought I was coming down with something. Felt so rough! Trying not to convince myself that it's another symptom. Hope you and your bump are doing okay. Must be frustrating having to chase landlords etc. It frustrates me reading stuff like that as we work so hard to keep tenants happy!

Under how exciting and nerve racking for u ! Hope u get a line tomorrow I have everything crossed for u and well done for not POAS already lol think I was POAS at 9dpo + lol I had a bag of cheapies so was was hard not to ! Lol X

Mimi good luck ! Hopefully h catch this cycle and will have a wee one to celebrate in the new year !! X
Mum stays about half an hour away so not ideal ! Lol X

Little - I got pregnant on a 32 day cycle as mine wer longer after the pill , did u use OPKs ? I tested 12 dpo after using the OPKs and got a faint line so it depends on how ur tracking I suppose ? X
I didn't ovulate until cd 19 so if i wasn't using them I would have been waiting a bit longer X
Also well done to u for not whipping the tests out too soon ! Smile
I understand landlords have a lot to deal with but at the sm time we haven't had any issues in the 3 years we have been here an always paid our rent so was hoping they would b able to arrange a guy pretty soon considering the washing machine is a necessity when u have a messy toddler , hopefully hear bk soon ! Lol X

Hooray, I have a POAS buddy Grin

Interesting you should say that about longer cycles. With DS I got 2 BFN before my BFP, I think they were at 10 and 12 DPO, maybe even later. Not even a hint of a line!

Gx I used OPK after I got my first period since having DD. Two years I went without one, good in some respects as one less thing to worry about, but then you wonder when it's gonna show Confused

My cycles were really mixed up before, some around 100 days long, and so I fully expected to need to monitor things. I started with the OPK but gave up testing after a month! Then we DTD one afternoon (of freedom) and I felt a niggle that night. Whipped out the kit and it indicated I was highly fertile but hadn't reached peak (and that took around a week). We decided to go for it and DTD every other day. OH must've been delighted after a dry spell Grin

So that's what's led to us trying and if I do get a BFP I will feel very lucky indeed.

Under when did you get your BFP last time? Hope you get a good result tomorrow buddy! I think I will test. Again...I already tested once when my tests arrived and was 8dpo Hmm dunno what I was thinking. It made me realise how much I want this though.

underrugsswept · 06/04/2016 11:59

I think it was 14DPO or 16DPO last time. I've looked at my FF chart but the days don't quite tally with what I remember (I thought I tested Sunday and I definitely got my BFP on Tuesday but FF has 4 days between tests so I might have recorded it on that wrong day).

I'll probably test tomorrow PM. I've waited long enough. Good luck to you!

Possibly TMI but I need to ask. Have any of you suffered with really bad tummy cramps and diarrhoea at this stage? I'm experiencing a moment of relief and need to ask. It might make me feel a tiny bit better. Been feeling awful for a couple of hours now Sad

Got a high opk today on cb dusl indicator but feel sooooo ill. Not sure DH will come near me so fingers crossed i feel better soon or can convince DH that he wants to dtd with a sick person, coz it'll make me feel better Grin

Good luck #myfriends wherever you are on your ttc journey. Xx

I've decided I'm not going to test today. I can't face seeing a BFN then having to wait for AF. Have you done it yet Little?

Hi all. Been quiet again. DD has been really ill and was in hospital yesterday but she's finally getting better.
CD4 and AF is done already, was lighter than usual but a lot more painful.

Hope you're all well xx

Thanks all. Not feeling very hopeful but then I couldn't imagine getting pregnant with DS and that clearly happened!

Out of interest... Is anyone finding it's taking a lot longer TTC #2 than with #1? I got pregnant first cycle with DS. Confused

underrugsswept · 07/04/2016 12:58

Oh FFS! I broke and tested and there's something faint but definitely not a definitive BFP. Why do I do this to myself?! It came up pretty quickly I got pee on my fingers when I pulled the test apart to check it. Within 5 mins I'd say. I took the photo at about 15-20 mins. It looked like quite a dilute wee so I guess I'll try another tomorrow if AF doesn't arrive before then. FF thinks I'm 13DPO today.

That's looks like a faint BFP to me buddy Shock maybe try a digital too?! I don't know why I went with that. Guess I just wanted to avoid the is there or isn't there a line thing!

underrugsswept · 07/04/2016 13:14

Good idea. I'm going to try not to think about it for the rest of the day then will pick up a digi tomorrow maybe. I have a bucket load of these one-step tests but I bloody hate this 'is-it-isn't-it' stuff Sad

I had a high opk again and did manage to dtd last night but its about to get complicated...going away for the weekend and only got one more digital stick left so gonna be peeing in a cup and dipping cheepies until i get a high then use digi to confirm but i ovulated very late last month so not too sure what's going to happen this month and very uncertain about what our ttc future holds. It's only been 4 cycles but I'm getting very stressed and ill more frequently and suffering with depression just makes it even more fun!! Still, on a positive note, my body does seem to be doing what it should be at least so let's see if a new years baby can be an awesome end to 2016/start to 2017. Grin
