@mrsjkerry I hope so, I. Just confused as to why I'd get a clear negative and then a faint line again the next day. Either way I hope it happened overnight as I have come on with a sudden stomach bug and dh is working evenings until Saturday so no BD can be done until then.

MistyB, I understand what you mean about the pregnancy boards I was on one but I barley had any replies because it was so huge.. so stay on here with these lovely ladies :)

Pibbee , thanks for asking lovely! Another bfn this morning but no signs of af either. So I'm calling my doctors this afternoon for my blood test, just so confusing! Hope you are well! :)

HoldTightPretendItsAPlan · 09/03/2017 11:34

Welcome JellyBean

We're not ttc just yet, we've set the date for April. I thought I'd feel happier with a date in mind. Now I'm just counting down the pills left to take Angry

nebula16 · 09/03/2017 11:50

So my blood tests came back "normal no action" so I'm still left confused and 9 days late! I'm going crazy ladies! Sad

MistyBxx · 09/03/2017 12:23

Nebula that's so weird! What are your stats again chick? Like when did you come off pill etc and what cycle day are you and what are your normal cycles? Since I came off the pill, my cycles have been 28-31 days but I had one crazy 39 dayer for no apparent reason but I had began taking pregnacare conception tablets, that was the only difference, and I googled the reviews and loads of people said it messes your cycles up although how, I don't know, it doesn't contain anything which should affect it but hundreds said it did! Hundreds also said it didn't though as well, but I stopped taking them anyway and all cycles following were almost clockwork x

Pibbee · 09/03/2017 14:28

Nebula that is strange! Must be your body settling down still. So frustrating!

Another day, and still nothing to report from me.....

Gosh Misty those preg boards do sound a bit doom! Luckily MrsJ has started one, hopefully we can all migrate across soon!

nebula16 · 09/03/2017 15:12

Well I stopped taking my pill around 9 months ago, I got pregnant a month after that and then lost the little bean at 7 weeks. My periods have been on the dot regular since (6 months ago) I had a period exactly 6 weeks after my miscarriage and then had my periods on the 27/28th of each month so it's just so confusing I feel like I'm going crazy :')

nebula16 · 09/03/2017 15:31

I'm 25 by the way almost 26 and I know you don't have to say names but my name is Leanne and it's lovely to have all of you ladies for support!

MistyBxx · 09/03/2017 16:27

Ah bless you Leanne 😍 I love this thread, everyone is so nice. Hmmm it's so weird isn't it that you've been regular all this time and now a long gap! I wish I knew the answer 😳 it must just be a crazy cycle lol at least your bloods have nothing to report, coz that means that's all normal and healthy! So I'd say just keep doing what you're doing for now!!🙌🏼

nebula16 · 09/03/2017 16:42

I love it too, all you ladies are amazing! There's no judgment ❤ I know MistyB! It's so strange, I think I'm out for this cycle and my body is just playing cruel tricks. I'll keep you updated! How are you feeling lovely?

JellyBean89 · 09/03/2017 16:52

@HoldTightPretendItsAPlan Yeah having a date in mind kind of makes you look forward it even more lol

@Nebula that's so strange! No action and 9days late? They should at least give you a reason for it. X

JellyBean89 · 09/03/2017 16:53

Also I guess I didn't miss my surge...the blank test I got was either faulty or I had a sudden dip in my Lh if that's even possible.

I know jellybean it's crazy! If I don't come on in another week I'm going to ask for a scan because if I'm not blessed with a little bean then obviously something somewhere is wrong Confused but we shall see! Af might still show her ugly fave for me yet, I didn't get a BFP until I was 6 weeks last time though which is making me doubt thing! Crazyyyy! I see you haven't missed your window either! I hope you succeed and conceive (no rhyme intended haha) Smile

ttcnovice · 09/03/2017 22:18

Twisted I'm drawing on my new positive attitude and saying cycle 5 will be our BFP month! I've just ordered some conceive plus (used preseed last month but I didn't like the applicators) so I'm raring to go now! Just need AF to bugger off! How are you feeling today? Hope you enjoyed the wine, I had pate earlier because I'd been avoiding it just in case and it's my favourite Grin.

Thanks mrsj I like that! It's a really good way of thinking of day one AF!

nebula that's strange! Sorry you didn't get any answers. Can you book an appointment and ask if there's any other investigations they can do? Seems a bit off for them to just leave you to get on with it!

Misty glad you're sticking around on here, keep sprinkling that baby dust GrinStar. Hopefully we'll all be able to join you soon over on mrsj's pregnancy thread 🤞🏼.

MistyBxx · 09/03/2017 22:33

Definitely ttc and march was my cycle 5 (of proper trying!) so it's a lucky one!!x

mrsjkerry · 10/03/2017 06:03

Ttc I used conceive plus last month 😊

I was given a CB opk kit the other day, the one with the smiley face. Are they better than the OS opk?

Any advice for the next cycle useage

ttcnovice · 10/03/2017 11:17

Mrsj lets hope it brings me the same luck as it did for you then Grin. TMI but did you just use it as normal lube, or did you get the applicators?

mrsjkerry · 10/03/2017 12:04

Both!

OP posts:
nebula16 · 10/03/2017 12:15

Ttcnovice I know I don't find it fair that they have just left me to get on with things but If I still don't see af in another weeks time I'm going to ask for further tests. 10 days late today and counting Envy

Pibbee · 10/03/2017 14:02

That's so annoying Nebula! Definitive go back if no change in a week or so.

Happy Friday all!!!!

nebula16 · 10/03/2017 15:34

I shall do pibbee! Thank you :) anything to report from you?

Pibbee · 10/03/2017 15:38

Nothing at all!!! Am 8dpo and AF is either due on Sunday or early next week (depending on whether my random 25 day cycle last time was a one-off or not!) I don't really have any cramps or anything. And the usual brown spotting I get a few days before AF isn't here, but dunno what that means if anything!!

tessapop · 10/03/2017 16:15

Hi guys do you mind if I join? I've been a lurker for a while but have just joined as it's our first cycle ttc! Currently 5dpo and already driving myself mad lol. Do you think it's really possible to have symptoms soo early? AF not due until March 26!

mrsjkerry · 10/03/2017 17:08

Hi tessa. I had backaches at 7DPO which was a definite symptom. Also tender breasts at 4DPO!
