We need new AF due dates for anyone who the witch visited in the past week or so.

I won't be around on here so often (all being well) so if someone else wants to copy the list and keep it up to date then feel free Smile

We'll also need a second December thread when this one gets to 999 replies!

Age 28
TTC #1

I should add that AF due 24th December (told you they're long!)

Good luck to all trying!

Tinkerbell2319 · 08/12/2016 13:57

Hi MrsG

My new AF date is 20th I think Smile

Ohb0llocks · 08/12/2016 14:20

I need budging down to around the 30th I'm perioding like I don't know what.

Ohb0llocks · 08/12/2016 14:20

Oh you've moved me sorry didn't see, I'm on there twice

Writerwannabe83 · 08/12/2016 15:08

Kski - BFN this morning pretty much as expected Grin

Oggy88 · 08/12/2016 15:59

Thanks for the update, MrsG.

I am so nervous to test, got tons of ICs that I am afraid to even look at! Had my bfp at 8 dpo last month, which ended in very early MC, disappeared day before AF. Well, that, or a faulty CB+ batch.

Feeling super bloated, constipated even, exhausted before it hits 3pm, sore boobs, so really hope something positive (get it? Grin) will come out of all this!

Kirsty8333 · 08/12/2016 16:08

Hi all, I'd like to join please AF came today after having a miscarriage last month so will hopefully be trying to conceive again this month

MrsCummings · 08/12/2016 17:29

Yes Flamin! I'm taking a leaf out of your book! FW starts Sunday so I have cleared social calendar and plan to go all out from Friday pm with a baby making bonking bonanza Wink

powerpuffer · 08/12/2016 17:34

Hello everyone, I've just caught up in all the messages. Looks like ohb0llocks and motherofunicorns and I are all going to be testing buddies, hoping to bring in the new year with a positive! I'm currently ill in bed and hoping I feel better soon and DH doesn't get it as FW is next week and I certainly don't feel well enough for any naughtiness right now!

DichotoMous · 08/12/2016 17:50

Hello everyone, I am around 10DPO today but not feeling it at all. Very crampy like pre-AF. Haven't done any tests and wont do until probably Sunday at earliest (I am due Saturday as my luteal phase is always around 11-12 days), presuming I haven't started AF by then. Just pretty pissed off with the whole thing to be honest, it's emotionally exhausting isn't it??

P.S. Usually I only get cramps the day/night before AF. Why is it when TTC I seem to get them from pretty much O-day onwards? WTF is that all about? I must have a right bitch of a uterus Angry

DichotoMous · 08/12/2016 17:55

(clearly a PMS-fuelled post there Grin)

Kskifred · 08/12/2016 18:11

dicho that's exactly how i'm feeling. my cycle sounds exactly the same, due af saturday but don't get af symptoms until it's literally around the corner. This cycle and particularly today i have had such bad cramping that it feels like i'm due on any minute.

TMI now but last toilet visit i had cm like yellow snot?! Gross, and don't recall this being the norm for me so my body is all out of whack this month.

A million bfns so far so think i'm going to prepare for a no go this month. Pissed off with these new pre menstrual symptoms!

DichotoMous · 08/12/2016 18:37

"snot" for me too Ski - so much so I keep thinking it's AF. Might have to crack open the Friday Wine (TM) a day early.

Carlotta82248 · 08/12/2016 19:15

Hey girls! Update on my current situation following my 'positive' IC 6days post ovulation. Two frer bfn and all strips still neg, sure was just a bad test (x4!) and I've just set myself up for huge disappointment. Mid nights at the moment feeling totally sorry for myself, and just like everyone else who feels like it will never happen. Constant baby bombs too. Sorry for the moan, sending hugs to all those in same boat x

Oggy88 · 08/12/2016 19:46

So sorry, Carlotta. Exactly the same thing happened to me last month around 8dpo, really sucked. This is why I am afraid to test early now, not because I might see a bfn, but a bfp that will disappear. Still not sure whether that was a very early mc or a faulty batch of Clear Blue + (which I read horrible things about!). Hang in there. There is over 7 billion of us around, surely getting pregnant is possible!

88claire · 08/12/2016 20:14

Quick question.. does anybody know how early to test when I have absolutely no idea whether I have ovulated or even how long my cycle is? I had some ovulation signs three days ago (CM, dizziness). Plus two days of bright red bleeding mixed in with CM (sorry TMI!).

I have pots syndrome (postural orthstatic tachycardia syndrome) and feel pretty terrible at the moment but i'm not sure whether it's the excitement of trying for a baby or something else happening?

I wish my body came with a instruction manual because I don't understand it at all!!! Confused Grin

Kskifred · 08/12/2016 22:29

Temps are going up too so i have no idea what's going on now x

DichotoMous · 08/12/2016 22:36

What does it mean if your temp goes up Kski? I've not tried tempting myself cos don't you have to do it at the same time every day, without fail?

DichotoMous · 08/12/2016 22:37

*temping

MotherofUnicorns · 08/12/2016 22:45

Good to know powerpuffer Althugh AF always seems to arrive before ovia predicts it so i think i will know by NYE.
I am hoping a lot of relaxing and a bit (!) of wine over xmas will help the babymaking along....
3 people off on mat leave at work in the next few weeks which is making me all the more determined.
I know how you are feeling carlotta i am getting a bit despondent now. The pains of AF are just like the final nail in the coffin every month. Not only am i not pg but i am in pain and have to deal with all the associated period admin (periodmin?!)
grrrrr
Lookign forward to more BFPs ladies, keep POAS please!

Kskifred · 08/12/2016 23:05

Sorry to hear that Carlotta although it's much more likely to pick up false negative than a false positive, fingers crossed for you still having an egg that's getting sticky which is messing up testing x

Bows85 · 09/12/2016 00:16

Thanks again for doing the updated list MrsG. I think I'll be due AF around 18th now, but god only knows!

I have been feeling odd all week. I feel, not cramping as such, just really heavy. Does that make sense to anyone?! I'm sure it's just because I'm in the 2ww and I'm overanalysing every twinge!
Maybe AF is going to arrive sooner than I think Confused
