I'm only 11 days off the pill so I don't think it's a possibility as yet. Should I wait till the end of October to POAS? I'm pretty sure I'll get my AF before then. Sad

LuciBee231015 · 26/09/2016 17:18

Bobo 😂

Kaisha02 · 26/09/2016 17:27

So I used an early response and got a bfn. The suspense and wait continues until af arrives.

MouseLove · 26/09/2016 19:28

Kaisha, sorry it wasn't what you wanted. Maybe you a are a little too early yet.

I'm getting really fed up. I know I'm probably not due my AF until maybe 28 days after finishing my pill (currently on day 11) but this back and tummy ache is really annoying. Everything is sooooo tender!!! My belly feels almost nervous. I keep feeling like AF is here (like this morning sat on the tram to work) and then I check and there's nothing!!

I'm gonna have serious words with my uterus soon!! She's being awkward!!!

Tommygirl10 · 26/09/2016 22:15

Ladies, when is best to test? Ovia is saying tomorrow. But af is not due for another week?? X

Purpleviola14 · 26/09/2016 22:45

tommy I'd wait 2 more days then test with a FRER. Buuuuut I'm also impatient and would do it tomorrow too haha

Purpleviola14 · 26/09/2016 22:46

Mouse sounds very confusing for you lovely?! Our bodies can be teasing b**es can't they!

MouseLove · 26/09/2016 22:52

Very confusing purple. I'm waiting for my first after pill AF and getting all the signs she's just around the corner. For the last 9 days or so!!!! It's getting to be a bit annoying since DH thinks he's already scored a goal and I keep reminding him it's a little more technical than that LOL. Football

LuciBee231015 · 27/09/2016 10:01

Sorry Kaisha, I take responsibility for egging you on!

Tommy I wouldn't listen to Ovia to be honest. It just assumes you are on a 28 day cycle and makes you test early!

So my af is gone now, nice little 3 days, I'll take that! Just need to keep an eye out for ewcm in the next 2 weeks and try and catch my fertile window now! Let's hope i don't ovulate on cd38 again, I can't be waiting that long again!

I know I shouldn't think like this buuuuttt... If I ovulate like a normal person on cd14/15 I will be due to test on my 1st wedding anniversary... What a wonderful gift that would be if I got bfp!

Anyway, back to the real world 🙄

Johno, how you getting on?

Kaisha02 · 27/09/2016 10:17

Don't worry Lucibee, it's all part of the fun and games. Still no sign of af today at all so wonder how long this will continue for. It's nerve-wracking!

MouseLove · 27/09/2016 10:22

Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for you Luci. Wink

cnchapmanxx · 27/09/2016 15:06

just came on here to check how everyone is doing, and i literally screamed with excitement to see that Bobo is up duffed!!!!
yayyy so so happy for you lovely! you really do deserve it!!
how is everyone else getting on?? Cookie how are you hun?
im currently 28 weeks preggers - tired, fat, shes right under my ribs so i cant breathe and i just cry at everything and anything!! xxx

BoBo90 · 27/09/2016 15:44

Haha Chapman! I'm finally joining you in the upduffed club!!! 😁😁 still can't believe how far along you are!! Time flies when you're repeatedly ttc and wishing away ever month having fun 😉
Sounds like your having a great time! I actually have all that to look forward to now 😍 It's so good to hear from you though Xxx

Tommygirl10 · 27/09/2016 16:25

Luci when you get to know your cycle you can change the length of your cycle on the Ovia settings. My cycle is consistent now but still a drag at 42 days long. I had to change the length of my cycle in the settings of the app.
Ovia predicts af on Monday so I don't know why it is telling me to test early. Unfortunately I couldn't bare the wait and tested and got a BFN of course! 😐
I'm still holding on to some hope for Monday though. Fingers crossed to all other tww'ers. And here's to plenty of dtd for those heading into their fw 😁 Xx

LuciBee231015 · 27/09/2016 16:31

Oh thanks for the Ovia tips Tommy! Suppose I'll have to see what this month brings!

Tommygirl10 · 27/09/2016 17:51

Yes good luck Luci. Your cycle will be in full swing before you know it. I just hope you have shorter cycles than I do. 42 days feels like a life time when ttc. I'd be over joyed with them if I wasn't ttc mind you x

cnchapmanxx · 27/09/2016 18:11

bobo i know how exciting when are you due?? so happy for you god you were with all us lot back in the day on them horrible winter nights with our OPK sticks and agnus castus and all that bollox haha..dont know how i would of coped without yous lot!
i know tbf it has flown over since i found out back in april im onto the long stretch now 12 weeks to go!
you do indeed it is so amazing, ive had a pretty good pregnancy so far apart from the odd occasion but its all part of the joys haha! xxxx

Johno85 · 27/09/2016 18:17

Ah chapman great to hear you and little miss are doing well.

I'm on cd29. If I ov on cd14 I'm 1day late. If I ov on cd17 I've got a couple more days to hang in there. Bbt still high and steady. Plan is to test on Friday if no af. Have an MRI next Tuesday so l will need to know before then.

Trying not to get my hopes up. Eeeeek!

CatMum87 · 27/09/2016 18:20

I think I may be a little bit late to the party but yay congratulations Bobo!! Youve been so supportive to everyone- so glad it was your turn to get a bpf!!!!

Big congrats to all the other bfps too....my my you have all been busy whilst ive been away Grin.

So after two weeks no poas, I of course had to whip one out as soon as i got back lol. Perhaps all the sangria and sun worked wonders as I got the darkest line ever. Any opks experts out there know if either of these are positive?! Gone lighter today so I have no clue what is going on, day 84 sigh!! Xx

BoBo90 · 27/09/2016 19:01

I'm due in the beginning of June! I think anyway! I had three lh surges and a 60 day cycle but think I concieved on the last one 😊 Might try and get an early scan to confirm it though in case I'm further along!!
Not long left! I will be waiting for a picture of baby Chapman when she arrives 😍

Johno lovely you know how ridiculously excited I am for you and can't wait until Friday!! I have everything crossed 😊

Thank you Catmum! Glad you had a good holiday and that top Opk is definitely positive so get dtd!! 😁

OP posts:
Kaisha02 · 27/09/2016 19:03

So again no af today. I'm very bloated today and for the last three days have had lots of white discharge but no af! Is this discharge pretty standard if I'm having a longer than usual cycle?

cnchapmanxx · 27/09/2016 19:20

Hi johno lovley! Ahh no way as if your so close to testing I've got my fingers crossed for you Hun! We need more bfps!!

bobo oh amazing Hun so lovely for you! Nice summer baby least you won't be sweating like I have been doing - awful chafing like there's no tomorrow haha! Yes defo as with your long cycles could be further on! I remember the cycle we caught we did it on the day of OV all the times where I was doing it days before!! They say girls are slow swimmers though so it could of been from dtd on the Thursday who knows haha! Of course il put a picture up of her when she arrives! Xxx

May07 · 27/09/2016 21:09

Hi all not been on for a while but just logged on and saw you fab news Bobo! Congratulations you must be thrilled!! Nice to see it does happen for those who have been trying a while. Fab news!

Hi to chapman too ... Can't believe your 28 weeks!!

Hope everyone else doing ok ... Will have a proper read/catch up now!!

Tommygirl10 · 27/09/2016 21:37

Bobo, it's nice to know that even with a 60 day cycle and a few surges, it is still possible. Thank you for giving us all hope. Xxx

MoonlightMojitos · 27/09/2016 22:44

Fx for you both kaisha and tommy!

luci glad af is gone already, plenty of time to get some practice in! Hope this cycle is shorter for you.

bobo how are you feeling, any symptoms yet?

johno this is exciting! I know you're very restrained and try not to get too excited but can't wait for you to test, how you manage to hold out so long is beyond me!
