Morning all. Cd30 now for me and still no AF despite some pretty convincing cramping. Poas this morn n another BFN. Just wish she would arrive now tbh Sad

IntelligentPutty · 16/12/2016 08:11

Aww. Jelly baby. Hate those last few days. Fingers crossed for you. X

BertieBotts · 16/12/2016 08:37

Yes ear should be fine. Mine is an oral one and only goes to one decimal place. Two decimal places is better apparently but I find it works okay. Useful features involve it being easy to use when you're half asleep and a light so you can see the screen in the dark (I just use my phone screen to illuminate it).

bluebell17 · 16/12/2016 08:40

Fingers crossed for you jellybabie.
I did another Morrisons test again this morning and it was negative. Who knows what's going on....

Jellybabie3 · 16/12/2016 09:11

Really dont know what to think. Im flitting between hoping im gonna get a late BFP to feeling like AF is going to arrive any minute. I guess the chances of getting the BFP are pretty slim now though?

MissMagpie · 16/12/2016 09:24

Fingers crosses Jelly - you aren't out until AF actually arrives.
I really feel for you bluebell. Our bodies are so strange, aren't they? Sending love and hope.

I am officially in the 2WW now. Having gone from not fertile to peak fertility in like, a day, I dtd on the day before my peak reading, straight after the peak reading and the next day too. My EWCM has gone now so am thinking I didn't have a fertile week - just a few days - and hoping I have covered this adequately.

I have a Christmas party tonight and am going to have a couple of drinks but take it steady. Obviously there is nothing implanted yet to do any harm to and I don't want to arouse suspicion. Plus I really want a glass of wine! Wine

Kskifred · 16/12/2016 09:37

Hopefully it was a false neg bluebell, but it sounds so similar to my last cycle. I must have had a chemical pregnancy i think. I'm not testing before af is late next time as i got so excited it is horrible when it doesn't work out. And staying away from the clear blues too, i would rather see a false bfn than a false bfp. Have you tried a FRER? And when are you due af?

Kskifred · 16/12/2016 09:44

Missmagpie I think you have a fertile 5 days or so as sperm can live for about that long? Rather than you being really fertile as such, although your 'environment' is more friendly in that time. So in the lead up to ovulation you have a few days then 24 hours from ov i thought? I would keep track and if you are only getting an ov reading for a day or so then i would roughly calculate 5 days prior as being your window to dtd? If i'm talking rubbish here someone correct me but that way you are covering yourself before ov was my understanding x

Hippychic79 · 16/12/2016 10:51

Welcome OkyDoke -
Not long now .... keeping fx for you and all ladies still on the December bus xxxx

MissMagpie · 16/12/2016 11:41

Yes Kskifred that's similar to what I thought - I was expecting some high fertility days and before peak fertility and didn't get any so I was almost taken unawares!
This is my first month doing OPKs and using Ovia so it's interesting to see how my body really works, as I was just observing EWCM before.
If it doesn't work out this month, at least I will be better prepared next month.

bluebell17 · 16/12/2016 12:00

Kskifred I need to get a FRER. I have a CB digital but not done that yet. I'll pick up a FRER asap. I have no idea when AF would be due.... I guess if we said that my bleed last weekend wasn't AF then I would be on Cd24 today based on last AF? But my last cycle was 34 days....So would I be too early to show a clear positive test? Fingers crossed it's not a chemical but I'm glad you've shared your experience as I know it's a possibility. I didn't show a positive or any sign of faint positive when I had the bleed last week, and the bleeding stopped on Saturday mainly with a small amount of brown blood for the next two days but only when wiping (Tmi sorry). I keep getting twinges too, and light cramps.

I'll keep you all posted and thanks for your support, it's so hard when we aren't telling anyone we are TTC!

Carlotta82248 · 16/12/2016 12:25

Fingers crossed for all, such a stressful time, for anyone with squinters......I finally plucked up the courage today and I wasn't blind! Sending love and babydust to all x

Cycle 1

Have been reading through this thread and is so lovely to see so many BFPs. Congratulations to you all :)

I have quite an irregular cycle going from 24 - 30 days and am due on anytime between now and Monday. Only first month so won't be too dissapointed if not but the wondering is driving me crackers!!

Hippychic79 · 16/12/2016 13:53

Welcome loobylou Smile
The 2ww is horrible but you never know you might be first time lucky 🍀
Xxxx

Jellybabie3 · 16/12/2016 14:08

Im on cd30 had bfn on cd 28 and today. Had cramps like AF coming for a week. Is it worth me testing again over the weekend? So confused Confused

Hippychic79 · 16/12/2016 14:43

Which brand(s) test you using jellybabie? When is af due? Xxx

Jellybabie3 · 16/12/2016 14:46

This would only be my second period since coming off pill. First was 21days. Im on cd 30 now. Had cramping on and off for last week now like AF is coming but nothing. I appreciate my cycles could be all over the place but it also means i dont know when to test or if i can drink etc etc. I used cheap wilko ones.

Jellybabie3 · 16/12/2016 14:50

Theyre called clear and simple

powerpuffer · 16/12/2016 16:27

Yay! carlotta that's awesome news! Congratulations!
