I'm out ladies the witches has just arrived so I've done the only thing I can do seeing as DH is out at his Christmas party and had a large glass of wine, watched Love Actually and cried a lot. I so wanted a BFP for Christmas Xmas Sad

binkybunny · 02/12/2016 23:31

Just updated Ovia and I'm still on the December bus, just so moving to join the other wine drinking rebels on the back seat. I may have to do a 4 day early POAS on Christmas Day... just in case Xmas Grin

Thanks writer Smile

Bertie - yep, we'll be DTD over the weekend a couple of times, just in case! So bloody annoying that he's going away at a potentially crucial moment. Trying hard to not let it piss me off too much knowing he'll be home for the next FW...

MotherofUnicorns · 03/12/2016 00:15

Hi everyone, I'm trying to chill out a bit during the 2ww this month.... currently 5 or 6 dpo and Af due on 10/12. If she doesn't come early I will try and leave it until 11/12 to test I think...... We'll see.... just been out with a friend who can't belive I'm going for no. 3 and thinks I'm mad. Maybe I'm mad then! Good luck this weekend everyone!!

Lovechild2016 · 03/12/2016 07:02

mrscummings that's exactly what I did last month right down to being annoyed for being hungover as wouldn't have happened if I'd been pg! Sorry about AF blinky roll on 2017 that's what I say. Might have to change my username 😜

JeNeBaguetteRien · 03/12/2016 08:10

What a difficult year Bertie. You must be due some luck in 2017.

Ohb0llocks · 03/12/2016 08:24

BFN this morning Sad

1st month trying clear blue advanced and noma ovulation tests with the ovia app...fingers crossed.
I have a history of endometriosis and I have a cyst on my right ovary. I just hope these arnt the reason it hasn't happened yet. Waiting on a gyne appt for a check up.

FlaminFlamingo99 · 03/12/2016 08:41

OhBollocks and BinkyBunny Sorry AF got you Sad. Treat yourself to wine/choc etc until you are feeling better. Fx for BFPs for you both on this new cycle! Positive thinking Smile

I am CD39 and still no AF but my moods are horrendous. Negative hpts. I am v irritable and cross/sad and trying really hard not to take it out on DH. But about to sound like a little child I really wanted a December BFP. Think as cycle are getting longer (more like six weeks which was how it was when I was younger, prior to pill for 4/5years) I am probably not ovulating. We DTD so much this cycle it so my defies belief that I don't have at least ten babies in there!! My cycles range from 28-however long this cycle lasts.

My mum was on phone to me last night about the children she works with at nursery, and how so'n'so has a baby and it's really cute blah blah blah cute stories etc and I know she would love to be a gran and I just want to shout 'would you please stop with the baby-talk I know you' d be an amazing nan and I'm working on it!!'.
My gran had another fall yesterday after she has had two strokes in the last year and I worry she won't meet her first great grandchild.
I'm OK I just want AF to arrive so I can get on with my day 5 blood test as arranged with Dr. Will also persevere with OPks and possibly temping.
Pretty sure in new year I will try seeing a reflexologist, acupuncturist or herbalist all three if I could afford itBlush
Fx for everyone testing soon

Tinkerbell2319 · 03/12/2016 09:03

Sorry if TMI but super confused

Had a BFN this morning but also have EWCM which is the first time I've ever really properly noticed it so checked and am high & soft

What the actual hell is my body up to Confused might try an OPK later but surely not?!

Ohb0llocks · 03/12/2016 09:11

AF hasn't arrived for me yet but all hope for this cycle has gone really.

Bows85 · 03/12/2016 09:36

Tinker bell - maybe you're ovulating later than you predicted this cycle? Your symptoms would certainly suggest that... I would def take an OPK just to make sure, it can't harm to check Smile Are your cycles normally around the same length?

powerpuffer · 03/12/2016 10:09

13dpo and a day over my usual luteal length but still another BFN for me this morning. Well, two, as I did an IC and a FRER.

I am so torn. I don't know whether to give up all hope as I've been feeling crampy and back achey like I do before AF or whether I think that this is MY month. We DTD lots at the perfect times this month. I've never had the nausea, indigestion and dizziness that I've had the last few days. I've never had such sore boobs. So I don't know what to think Confused

Lovechild2016 · 03/12/2016 10:31

It's sounds promising power I wouldn't give up hope. I understand your frustration and not wanting to get too excited though. Really keeping everything crossed for you! I think this thread is due another BFP.

MrsG280516 · 03/12/2016 10:38

ohbollocks how many dpo are you? I think you should probably stop testing for a while otherwise you're going to drive yourself mad x

OP posts:
Tinkerbell2319 · 03/12/2016 10:45

Bows they're usually within a couple of days of what ovia predicts except for one random
month I had a really long one

Hmmmmm ill try an OPK later but DTD this morning anyway just in case lol

Tinkerbell2319 · 03/12/2016 10:46

Hang in there power and yeah don't give up hope but maybe hold of testing for a couple of days? BFNs wear me down more than just hanging in there and waiting I think

MrsG280516 · 03/12/2016 11:20

Well today is AF due date and she's not here (no sign of her either) so I think I can officially get excited about my BFP.

Hang in their ladies, it'll happen when you least expect it!

OP posts:
Ohb0llocks · 03/12/2016 12:10

Mrsg according to the ov test I should be 14dpo now

Tinkerbell2319 · 03/12/2016 14:36

Very much negative OPK

How bizarre

Bows85 · 03/12/2016 14:38

All that stressing that I might ov when DH is away was unnecessary as I've just got my first really strong +ve OPK Grin I was jumping about the bathroom like a mad woman!
DTD this morning and will hopefully go again at least once before he goes tomorrow morning.

How strange Tinkerbell Hmm Think our bodies like to play tricks on us at times...

Writerwannabe83 · 03/12/2016 14:54

That's great newsBow!!!! Grin

powerpuffer · 03/12/2016 16:02

Bows Yay!!!!

MaybeTimeNow · 03/12/2016 16:31

I've been lurking again during the 2ww. After a bit of cheering up today.

Worked out technically I'm on
Cycle 8
11dpo today, bfn and feeling shit. I really thought this was the month, I try not to symptom spot, but my boobs are huge... DH even commented. Not due until the 8th, but that glaring white is just depressing.
