Another month, another period. I was due af yesterday but had no sign but today I've had brown tinged cm so she'll be here tomorrow.

Anyone else out for March already? Feel free to join in my misery lol

Thanks guys..... I'll try again tomorrow and update. We'll see. I won't go too excited......

Aggy106 · 05/04/2017 09:29

motherofunicorns I agree with carlotta I've read that clear blue don't pick up as early as other tests, I'd say the IC is pretty clear! Hope you get a stronger positive soon!

beardy fingers crossed you get a positive when you test! What a pain about work, when does your contract end? Is there a policy on mat leave? Thanks for the preseed recommendation, think I'll try next month.

timpani so sorry to hear how hard it's been, it's impossible not to get your hopes up every month, no matter what! You never know so positive thinking (this is what I'm telling myself!).

I'm cd17, the last couple of months following mc I had a positive opk cd16, tested last night and not a sausage, I've been testing for a week and line hasn't been anywhere near the control. We've dtd a few times but not enough, I'm hoping I just missed the peak but realistically wondering if I actually ovulated at all this month, so frustrating!!!!! Confused

@Aggy106 the first time I conceived we used preeseed, I found it a handy tool when you aren't really 'in the mood' when TTC. This was our first month without (we ran out) and we've had some (hopefully) luck but I did miss it, had become part of the routine Blush

boatrace30 · 05/04/2017 11:32

motherofunicorns - both look positive to me, fingers crossed they get darker.
Beardy you have tonnes of self control. My aim is to get to Saturday without testing (and that will be 8dpo) 😂.
Sorry timpani - I know it's so hard not to get hopes up every month, but I guess we have to be positive xx

Justwaitingforaline · 05/04/2017 12:28

Afternoon all! Congrats on the positives ladies, I hope there's more to come! Motherofunicorns I'm great at lines and they both look there to me! I turned them negative and can see clear lines on both!

I'm a bit lost this cycle, what with the positive opks twice in one cycle on CD 11 and again on CD19. If I go with the second one being the true positive ( I had a lot more EWCM that time), I am now 3DPO with Ovia predicting AF on the 12th so have decided not to test unless she doesn't show! If it was right, is my LP too short? It would make it 11 days...

Carlotta82248 · 05/04/2017 12:44

Caved as I wanted to see the words, praying this doesn't end up the only actual proof of a pregnancy this time

April Bus: All aboard!
Justwaitingforaline · 05/04/2017 12:47

Yay! That's a definite positive if ever I saw one! Congratulations Carlotta!

boatrace30 · 05/04/2017 12:56

justwaiting. LP of 11 days prob okay as implantation happens day 6-12,, not optimum but okay. Also your app may be confused so you may not get AF then at all.
How many dpo are you if the first one was ovulation?

boatrace30 · 05/04/2017 12:57

Yay carlotta. Great to see the words. Congrats and fingers crossed!!

KittyKat73 · 05/04/2017 13:46

Congratulations on the BFPs we are getting just now!

CD25 for me just now no idea when AF may appear as cycles have been erratic playing the wait and see game.

Beardy1 · 05/04/2017 13:48

I caved too. Can't believe it. Praying for a sticky one too.

April Bus: All aboard!
Justwaitingforaline · 05/04/2017 14:33

If the first one was ovulation, I'm now 11DPO!

boatrace30 · 05/04/2017 14:47

Congrats beardy - I was sure you were when you described you symptoms!

WantToGoingTo · 05/04/2017 15:00

Congratulations ladies!

ImBreakingBad · 05/04/2017 15:18

Congratulations to you both GrinFlowers

tiddledpink · 05/04/2017 15:19

Oh Beardy that's a great sight! So pleased for you and for you Carlotta ☺️

CD15 and not sure if implantation bleed occurred yesterday. Trying not to obsessively symptom spot now though 🙃 x

Carlotta82248 · 05/04/2017 15:39

@Beardy1 yay buddy!

Proving to be a lucky thread so far, hoping and praying for everyone xxx

Carlotta82248 · 05/04/2017 15:40

@Beardy1 doesn't it seem to take forever to pop up!?!

BlueSpottyTiger · 05/04/2017 15:50

Yay beardy fab!!!!! Congratulations...
What symptoms did you have again?

P.s- did anyone not have a implantation bleed? With dd i never had one.

Its a shame that 'pregnant 1-2 weeks' doesn't say on forever i was so happy when i first saw it.. saved it for my baby box and it was had turmed off and was blank Sad

BlueSpottyTiger · 05/04/2017 15:52

Congratulations mother didn't read all tge way back! Xx

WantToGoingTo · 05/04/2017 15:53

blue I didn't have implantation bleeding with DS. In fact when I got my bfp only symptom I had was sore nips and a metallic taste. And even then, only real pregnancy symptom for whole first trimester was extreme tiredness.

Carlotta82248 · 05/04/2017 15:59

I don't think I've got symptoms really, had a couple of waves of nausea, a metallic taste like once, slight jitteriness sometimes like my blood sugar has dropped and mildly (very mildly) sore boobs. All very un noticeable if I didn't know x

tiddledpink · 05/04/2017 16:12

I was the same with DS I never had any kind of symptoms - in fact I only found out as ha to go for bloods when I was 5 weeks xx

MotherofUnicorns · 05/04/2017 16:31

Ah blue i wouldn't get your hopes up i have de-convinced myself today - if that is a thing!!
Congrats beardy and carlotta, i REALLY hope i can join you soon.....

Beardy1 · 05/04/2017 18:56

Hi guys,

Sorry work was manic this afternoon so I haven't had chance to read and catch up. Thanks everyone for the congrats. I really appreciate it.

aggy my contract finishes in June 2018 so I'm having confirmation about what mat leave I have. Defo give preseed a go. It definetly helps when your not in the mood. We are quite reliant on it too.

boatrace I know I had a gut feeling too. Weird!!

carlotta looks like we are at the same point. It did feel like a while waiting for it to show. I kept going back to work.

bluespottytiger my symptoms have been a bit strange really. Lots of lightheaded nausea during exercise. Shortness of breath walking my pooch. More yellow cm, vivid dreams and high bbt. I haven't had an implantation bleed but I felt a stab and a weird blob of yellow stretchy cm appeared around that time. I also was really anxious but didn't know whether that had happened because I had to start clearing out my mums clothes who passed away last year. Grief appears to give me awful anxiety.

Anyways fx it's a sticky one.
