7dpo Star

Pepper, you're just two days behind me! The apps I had tell you different things so I gave up on relying on those. Think generally people have tested from 9dpo. Think it depends on implantation. If implants early as day 5dpo then think at 9dpo you might get a positive, if implants after up to 10dpo then a positive wouldn't show until 14dpo or maybe later.

I don't want to get my hopes up but I've had quite a bit of creamy cm last few days and it's seems to have increased in quantity as each day goes. Sorry tmi but on black undies it's very very noticeable and that wet feeling. My tummy feels bloated and have a dull ache in my legs again. So hard not to get hopes up really isn't it!? I've tried to ignore it but the creamy cm is very noticeable. I want to know asap.
The sticks are burning a hole in my bathroom cupboard!! Hmm

Footprints1 · 28/07/2016 18:28

Pepper- forgot to add those twinges I've been having too. Would be great to all get a BFP together this cycle!

Tee- if you are reading, I thought of u today as my friend who's about to give birth any mo soon was recommended a drama series to watch whilst she is up feeding- and was recommended the series of mistresses. Think was on bbc years ago but continued on a dif channel. I think I only watched one season so might give that a go.

Pepper2016 · 28/07/2016 20:01

Footprints that sounds really positive! I really hope you get a BFP! Then if you do I will have more hope too if I'm having similar symptoms. I know what you mean about the tests! I'm dying to do one but want to wait till Wednesday next week at earliest.

These two week waits don't get any easier do they Confused

Been so tired today again! And mega irritable this afternoon. Poor DH lol

Busta · 28/07/2016 22:35

Hey all!

Star CD 3

I'm just getting over AF (now 11th cycle SadAngry) & got my calendar game plan for this month. DP has already been informed of the DTD dates. Regimented sex - never thought it would come to this... lol Blush
But if no BFP this month we're off to the doctors for a check over & to see what is wrong. I'm fearing the worst - but that's just because I'm an overly anxious person at the best of times.

Hey Tee & Summer, hope you are both OK? I understand about needing time away! Don't stay away for too long though, it's good to hear from you Smile

Glad everything is progressing positively for you Radders, sorry the morning sickness has got you - they say ginger helps! Maybe ginger tea or sweets?

Hope the sickness doesn't get you down too much Ps - perhaps ginger for you too!

How are you Jodders?

Hi Jem, think I'm a bit late to answer about the positive OPK, but I think Radders is right, best to have the swimmers ready & waiting for the egg! I think you timed it perfectly!

Lot's of cranberry juice Nim (or wine Wink) hopefully it won't make a full blown appearance.

Footprints & Pepper it would be amazing if you both got BFP at the same time! Fingers tightly crossed for you both!!

Hoping everyone else is OK Smile

Mimilicious013 · 29/07/2016 06:10

Morning all

Cd5 Star,cycle 14Angry

Sorry have been Mia but was having trouble logging onto mn.my doc's appointment went OK was so hoping there was a bean growing and to my dismay, l started spotting the minute l got into the doc's roomsSad.af started on Monday on cd51 and with no explained reasons for delay.

Will be starting on clomid next cycle if nothing happens. Hope everyone is feeling so much better.

footprints and pepper rooting for your bfps soon my friends.

Hope you are OK nim and you enjoyed your wine.
Good luck on cycle 11 busta ,l have since given up on lots of dtd. I have now resigned to the saying what will be shall be.

jem hope you caught the egg and fingers crossed.

tee and summer hope you are OK and that relaxing works in your favour.

jod radders parney ps hope the babies are growing well and that sickness soon leaves you.

kate did you bring back a bfp from the holidays?

Footprints1 · 29/07/2016 15:38

8dpo?Star

Hi everyone

Dull cramps today, still creamy cm. Back home and my temp is still above coverline although not as high as I would have liked. Bit unsure really.. Going to test with FMU tomorrow as I'm due to be out with the girls for a champagne lunch! 4 best friends and not seen them all for almost a year. Really fancy a drink but won't if I am upduffed.

Hi Mimi- sorry AF finally arrived, shame it wasn't a BFP Sad Flowersalthough good news that u will get clomid. Are they doing blood tests too? Hopefully will regulate you and give u a BFP. I've got one cycle left.

Busta-oh no sorry AF got you SadFlowers
Hoping your next cycle will be it. Didn't realise you'd been trying for that long. Really sucks the life out of you after awhile doesn't it.

Hope everyone else ok and the grads are feeling better soon. Flowers to you all to brighten up your day FlowersFlowersFlowersFlowersFlowersFlowersFlowers

I've had a terrible past few days as not been getting on with DH. Been stressed out and upset last few days so hoping it hasn't effected implantation or anything like that. Really feel blah but think just the anxiety.

physicskate · 29/07/2016 16:16

Hi All! Literally just back from holidays. Feel drunk from jet lag - been up for about 30 odd hours... :(

So pretty sure I had a chemical while on holiday. Only took one test (frer) on 15 dpo. Faint positive... and then 17 dpo really heavy bleeding started. Still not entirely convinced it was a chemical, but guess I will never know?? So now I'm back on it with Cd 8. DH admitted we need to dtd more often (also admitted he thought as soon as we stopped using protection that I would fall, but now on cycle 4).

Consindering trying pre-seed this month... just not sure.

Footprints1 · 29/07/2016 17:56

Physics - how many days did u bleed for? Are u sure it was AF bleed and not implantation/breakthrough bleeding? So sorry if it was chemical Flowers. Did u have any symptoms whilst u were away before you tested?

LondonJem · 29/07/2016 18:01

Hi girls happy Friday to you all Flowers

Fx for TWWers try and distract yourselves as much as poss xx

Footprints I've found this happens with my DH too - the stress of the TWW seeps into your rellie and life. I really do sympathise it's so so hard.

Mimi and busta sorry it wasn't your months. Your plans to get help on next cycle sound positive and a step in the right direction xx

Kate that does sound like a chemical Sad that must have been awful. I hope you're okay and your body is saying it's ready to conceive - it didn't take radders long after her cp.

So I'm day 14 I think and I haven't ovulated. I think that OPK was just LH fluctuating. Got a load of EWCM yesterday evening and we DTD Monday Tuesday and Friday this week so far. More DTD throughout the weekend ahead. I'm expecting a positive OPK and ovulation within next 48 hours I reckon, so I'm confident we will be well covered. The rest is up to Mother Nature...

Tee hope you're doing okay hon.

Plenty of zen Halo relaxation nature Flowers and all that good stuff xx

Mimilicious013 · 29/07/2016 19:17

Thanks jem ,happy Friday to you too and all the ladiesWine.good luck with lots of congaWink busy weekend ahead

physicskate · 30/07/2016 04:13

Jet lag is a bitch - wide awake now at 4am. Telly is crap at this time of morning!

Bled pretty heavy for two days (bright red) and then had sort of more normal bleed for two more days and then another day of spotting. Periods have been really light and short since coil removed in Nov (more like light bleed for 2/3 days and then spotting for another day or so...). Had some reasonably heavy cramps on first day of af (light cramps before), but nothing compared to how it was on the copper coil!

Only 'symptom' really was boobs. Going over a bump in the road was painful - it was so weird. DH accidentally lightly elbowed my boob and I nearly cried! No more boob pain now!

So I guess I will never know!

Hoping good things for this month as still pretty relaxed! I know it's selfish, but really would be more ideal if I fell more like Dec/ Jan for a better maternity leave, so less pressure in the coming months...

Mimilicious013 · 30/07/2016 06:40

Morning ladies
Hope you enjoyed your holiday kate and sorry for the cp.the heavy bleeding could have been a sign something had happened. Hope you are ok now.

Hie footprints, have everything crossed for you. Hope you enjoy your lunch with friends. I haven't been out and about lately and it's making me grumpy. Age is catching upWink.sorry about your oh, menAngry!!!

Mimilicious013 · 30/07/2016 06:41

Happy Saturday everyoneFlowers

Footprints1 · 30/07/2016 07:00

9dpoStar

Bfn with FMU on a frer. Not even a squinter of a line. Really disappointed Sad

Not set me up in a good mood for the day. DH not talking to me so I'm pretty glad I'm out with my friends today.

Mimilicious013 · 30/07/2016 07:05

It might just be a little early hun so fx.enjoy your day out lovely, men are sometimes a pain. Just make sure you dress to killWink

LondonJem · 30/07/2016 09:35

Kate I hope this means you're really fertile and ready for the next try. Carry on with the relaxed mindset - it seems to be working for you.

Footprints it's so awful seeing that blank white stick but please don't let it spoil your day. It's so so early and means nothing.

physicskate · 30/07/2016 18:42

So I guess we're going to try pre seed this month.

Saw a vid called fat sick and nearly dead. Might need to try juicing. Weighed myself for the first time and realised I've put on over 30 pounds in the last five years. Need to start shifting some of it!

Hope everyone is well!

Footprints1 · 30/07/2016 19:26

Thanks girls, I'm holding on to that hope. Really weird that today I'm out with friends in London and my nipples are tingly, and I'm so so wet (sorry if tmi) but I've never been like this. Loads of creamy cm. Almost need to take my undies off as its so bad?!! Not itchy or anything like thrush but just so creamy and a lot of it.
So might give it another day and test on Monday if still bfn then I'll forget it. Had a wee drink just cos I was totally and utterly fed up with it all and with men!! I dressed nicely. ( I thought)!! but not even a "u look nice" comment from DH, or even a "have a nice time!" So had to have a cocktail to soften the disappointment !! Covent Garden was busy and really nice though.

Hope you are all well xx

Footprints1 · 30/07/2016 19:35

Kate - trying to lose a few myself.. But the burger on the menu looked better than the salad :(

ps2304 · 31/07/2016 07:36

7 weeks 2 days , have just been to the loo this am and had a bit blood when I wiped. What do I do???? Freaking out. The first bit was red then I checked inside and it seemed darker red/brown. Sad

Footprints1 · 31/07/2016 09:06

PS- try not to worry, the others had spotting. Keep monitoring it and if it gets worse, maybe see if you could get it checked out if you are worried. Hope you are ok xx

ps2304 · 31/07/2016 09:08

Have phoned my local EPU and booked in for Tuesday 9.30am for early scan. Fingers crossed all is ok but not feeling very positive as feeling less sick today too Sad

radderss · 31/07/2016 09:12

Ps try not to worry - I had spotting twice. Once around your time too. Mine went a bit pink too.
Is there a lot or just a twinge?
Have you got any cramps?

Kate sorry to hear you think you had a chemical Sad I didn't have heavy bleeding with mine. It was the next month I had heavy and bad cramping. I have read it's your body preparing for pregnancy ... So hopefully you will have what I had and get a bfp soon.

Footprints sorry to hear about you and DH. Hope things are sorted

Pepper2016 · 31/07/2016 09:17

Morning,
PS I'm sure it's just spotting, a friend had periods for 4 months when she was pregnant so can happen but best to have a check up. Plus be nice to see the little one.

Footprints could still be too early - some people don't get their BFP till after day period would be due. FX

Kate - let us know how you get on with pre-seed, fx for you

Mim, Jem and Busta - good luck for new cycle.

Cd25 and 8dpo - not really got many signs. Boobs bit sore and had a lot of pinching and twinges in stomach but not really got much cm so think I may be out. Going pub today but will stick to soft drinks just incase

ps2304 · 31/07/2016 09:30

Radders did you have any red fresh blood? That's what mine was when I wiped. Not old brown blood. That was after, the first wipe was red...
