I'm no expert Johno but I'd guess somewhere between day 12 and 14? Good luck with testing 😀

Moonlight, that's really cool! Was that FMU?

I'm 12 dpo, and no symptoms whatsoever. No AF symptoms either (it's due in 3 days and previously I've had cramps etc. in the lead up to it). Still, I've only had bfn results. Does anyone know if it's possible to get a bfp if you've had a negative test at 12dpo?

LuciBee231015 · 28/09/2016 09:02

So the opk thing does work moonlight!

Johno, I have idea about charts! Don't know how you haven't tested yet tho... I would have done at least 3 by now! 🙊

Johno85 · 28/09/2016 09:21

Haha the will is strong! mishy I have read on many a google search that some women don't get a bfp until 14dpo+ so there's still hope!!" I was thinking I either ov on cd14 or 17. Will know either way soon!

Kaisha02 · 28/09/2016 13:21

I'm off to buy more tests today and I'm going to test at the weekend again. Day 3 of late af.

MishyBakes · 28/09/2016 13:42

You're right Johno it does look like you ov' between day 14 and 17. I don't know what I was thinking! Fingers crossed for you 😀 And good luck Kaisha. There is still hope, though I'm driving myself mad! Going to try and keep busy at work today and stop thinking about it.

BoBo90 · 28/09/2016 16:05

Chapman I completely didn't think about how being preggo in the summer would be! Poor you! But totally worth it to have the best Christmas present ever (my auto correct changed that to 'best Christmas prawns ever' haha) 😁

Moonlight - I've had bad cramps for the first few days but that seems to have died down now 😊 Tiny bit of nausea too which I didn't think you got until later 😣 How about you?

Good luck Kaisha and mishy!! You're not out until the witch shows up!

Johno you know my feelings on this no testing nonsense Mrs 😉

MoonlightMojitos · 28/09/2016 17:08

johno I'd guess at around cd17 too... although this was my first month of bbt so I'm no expert!

mishy no, that was 11pm last night so they're obviously very sensitive to it! Might be better testing using them than actual pg tests and then testing if they come up that dark! I definitely don't think you're out yet either. I had a link somewhere to a thing about implantation dates and anything between 6 and 11 days I think it was and then it takes a few days after that for hcg to build up enough to test so you've got a few days left yet!

bobo I've had cramps since Monday too. Also a bit sicky but it's not nausea like feeling sick in my stomach it's more like when you've got indigestion and feel it more in your throat. Like a little sicky burp (gross huh) haha, I thought it's very early for that too but maybe it's because I have been a pig 😂. Also my boobs feel kind of hard if that makes sense?! Not sore or anything just a lot firmer than usual, no idea if that's normal lol.

BoBo90 · 28/09/2016 17:32

That makes sense! It's the blood rushing I that area an I also read that heart burn kind of feeling is progesterone making your oesophagus soft and letting stomach acid up so maybe that's what's causing your sicky burps 😂

Haha, how sexy. Poor dp. He doesn't know what he's got himself into. I've already given up any self restraint when it comes to food and fear I might be the size of a house by next June!

JackiePaper · 28/09/2016 18:00

Wow Johno you have some serious self restraint girl! Mishy- I too am 12dpo, haven't tested today, just been too busy, but tested yesterday afternoon and it was BFN. Don't know if I'll hold out til fri, but will avoid testing first thing in the morning as I've been taking night nurse for my cough/cold and apparently it can cause a false positive on hpt.
Kaisha - excited for you, fingers crossed for a bfp, let us know how you get on poas!
Bobo and moonlight - can't believe you have symptoms already! Must be really reassuring though 😊 X

JackiePaper · 29/09/2016 06:46

Morning! AF got me so I'm out for this cycle, onto number 3. 25 day cycle this time and think I'm gonna have to be a bit more proactive in figuring out if/when I'm ovulating. Which is easier? Bbt or opk? Or am I better doing both? thanks x

Kaisha02 · 29/09/2016 07:28

Morning all, I poas this morning and again a clear bfn but no sign of af today either. I think I'm resigned to just sitting back and waiting and accepting this is going to be a much longer cycle.

LuciBee231015 · 29/09/2016 10:33

Sorry about the bfn kaisha ☹️ Perhaps you are in for a longer cycle this month?

I'm pretty calm about it all at the moment, but I know as soon as i start getting ewcm and signs of ov I will turn into the pshyco that i was last month 😂

Hopefully the agnus castus brings my cycle length down. Will have to wait and see!

LuciBee231015 · 29/09/2016 10:35

BoBo and moonlight, I'm jealous of your nausea and sicky burps 😂

How is it going with keeping it a secret?

MoonlightMojitos · 29/09/2016 10:58

Haha luci I'm good at secrets so not a problem :). The only problem is today that I have woken up with a killer cold out of nowhere, my voice sounds terrible and I can't breathe through my nose so all my colleagues are offering me medicines and I'm having to lie and say I've already taken something while I sit feeling sorry for myself.

oatybiscuits · 29/09/2016 11:57

Hello! Can I join please? AF just started 5 weeks after coming off the POP. I was completely convinced I was pregnant but no! I have one ds, conceived on cycle 1 and before him had a miscarriage, also conceived cycle 1 so I wasn't expecting to have to wait but I know it's normal. Anyway this seems like a nice place to wait!

LuciBee231015 · 29/09/2016 12:04

Welcome Oaty 😊 You are right it is a good place to wait!

MouseLove · 29/09/2016 12:05

Hi oatybiscuits, good to know you got AF after pill. I'm still waiting for mine. Wink

JackiePaper · 29/09/2016 17:07

Well now I have no idea what is going on, was convinced AF was here this morning when I woke up, brown discharge and really bad cramps, however it's since all disappeared, absolutely nothing now at all. I'm proper confused, never had anything like this before! Maybe the witch will arrive tomorrow properly when she's due, wish we had X-ray vision and could see what's going on in there!

JackiePaper · 29/09/2016 17:08

Oh and welcome to oatybiscuits 😊

oatybiscuits · 29/09/2016 17:50

Ooh you never know Jackie maybe implantation..?

JackiePaper · 29/09/2016 18:08

I daredn't get my hopes up oaty! Could it be implantation 13dpo? Or it that too late. I have no idea

MouseLove · 29/09/2016 18:21

Jackie!!!! Could be!!!! Give it a week and I think you might have to POAS!
