So yet again, af has got me. Brown spotting this morning after a cycle where I was actually genuinely convinced I'd done it this time. Oh well.

Only on month 5 of actively trying. I'm ttc no2. I'm awaiting a referral for a hospital appointment to investigate scarring in my uterus so every month that goes by without a pregnancy, the more I can't deny that there's obviously something wrong (I've conceived twice, both just after a missed pill so 5 months is long in comparison!)

Just thought I'd say hi and hope THIS might be our month and we have a chance at a baby in 2018 instead :)

Maybebaby2 · 02/05/2017 17:07

Maybebaby2 · 02/05/2017 17:10

waitingon its really clear in that one, a BFP! Grin

Waitingonasmile · 02/05/2017 17:21

I missed the latest bfps! Congratulations ! What a day it's been for positives Shock.

BlueeSpottyTiger · 02/05/2017 17:24

Omg congrats ladies.. I'm actually in shock so many bfp's!!! Hope there will be more to follow..GL everyone xx

sallywiththegoodhurr · 02/05/2017 17:25

Congratulations ladies!

Yes I do have another for the morning, but not sure if I should wait until Thursday?
It was an Asda early response test.

juneybean · 02/05/2017 17:37

More BFPs congratulations ladies!! I'm hoping the fuerta sun is baking my egg nicely!

Maybebaby2 · 02/05/2017 17:37

If you are patient enough to wait till Thursday sally you should get a stronger result because hgc doubles every two days. I know there is no way I could resist testing again tomorrow but then I have no will power at all! 😂

Aridia · 02/05/2017 17:50

Gosh it's been a busy day! And so many bfp's! How exciting!!! Shock

I'm so very Happy for you all! January is going to be a busy month!

So I miscalculated my ov day. I think I'm now 9 dpo. Af isn't due until Sunday, but I'm getting so impatient! I've had some cramps today, which can be a sign af is on the way Confused although it would be a little early for me. I really want to do a test, but I'm telling myself to wait and see if af arrives as I don't want to get my hopes up and then be disappointed.

However, I am very inspired by taking wee to boots! Grin

ttcnovice · 02/05/2017 17:55

Wow what a day!! Congratulations to all of you with BFP's! What a lucky thread and it's only two days into May!

sallywiththegoodhurr · 02/05/2017 18:28

maybe I'm definitely not patient enough to wait! Grin

I'm sitting here with DH and he's bought me in a fruit cider.. do I tell him about the possible line or not?!

Cookie1831 · 02/05/2017 20:59

I would probably say but I can't hold my water! Speaking of which I stupidly did another frer tonight I did hold my www for almost 4 hours and it was bfn what a dick I am arggh so annoyed at myself why couldn't I have waited until morning
Am having period pains and brown spotting so am thinking possible chemical taking myself off to bed Angry

Cookie1831 · 02/05/2017 20:59

Wee

sallywiththegoodhurr · 02/05/2017 21:31

Oh I hope not cookie.
Fingers crossed your wee is just too diluted! It would be unlikely to get a good bfp in the morning and then a true bfn in the evening

Waitingonasmile · 02/05/2017 21:41

I'm sorry cookie spotting is so worrying but everything I've read seems to say can be normal. Really hope you get a strong positive tommorow. Fingers crossed for you Flowers

Maybebaby2 · 02/05/2017 21:52

Try not to worry cookie spotting really can be normal, and even if you held on for 4 hours it still wouldn't be as concentrated as your fmu. Fx you get another positive tomorrow Flowers

sally did you tell dh?

sallywiththegoodhurr · 02/05/2017 21:58

No maybe, I decided to wait until I do the other test in the morning. If I told him tonight then I'd start getting my hopes up for a real bfp

Maybebaby2 · 02/05/2017 22:03

Good thinking! fx for your test tomorrow, keep us posted 👍

BertieBotts · 02/05/2017 23:41

I think I might join if that's OK? I was on some of the buses before but dropped out when enthusiasm waned!

This is cycle 14 for us and I'll be due to test around the end of May.

Aridia · 02/05/2017 23:53

I'm sorry to hear that @cookie. Let's hope it was a false negative and fx for a bfp in the morning!

I caved and did a frer, which was a bfn as I expected. I'm getting period like cramps but I'd convinced myself I wasn't. I'm still convincing myself a bit that I was too early, or my urine was too diluted. But really I'm sure I'll be out very soon.

Fx for lots of sticky ones to come!

mrsb87 · 03/05/2017 06:57

Morning all,
So sorry cookie, I'm really hoping it was just diluted and you get another bfp this morning?
Hi Bertie, hoping this is a lucky month for you.
According to my app, af is due Friday. Slight cramps feelings have come and gone here. I stupidly did a test on Monday, not fmu so bfn, obvs. I've been a bit down in he dumps this past day or 2 so af possibly on the way. Guess we just don't know til the fat aunt sings though, right?

sallywiththegoodhurr · 03/05/2017 07:11

I've just retested and there is a very very very faint squinty line again, a bit more obvious than yesterday's Grin

Still not getting my hopes up but I'll retest at the end of the week!

Cookie1831 · 03/05/2017 07:20

Looking pretty negative here this morning the tiniest hint of maybe a shadow of a line but only at certain angles in the light nothing like the nice line yesterday am annoyed at myself for getting ahead of myself and spending a bloody fortune on tests! Think I will try and get bloods done to confirm, am a grumpasaurus Rex today x

mrsb87 · 03/05/2017 07:30

Try not to beat yourself up cookie. If any of us saw a line like you did, we'd all do the same!
Excellent sally! Fingers crossed for you lovely x
