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 :)

Good luck mrs! Keep us updated. Fingers crossed Grin

Viletta · 04/05/2017 08:50

@sallywiththegoodhurr sounds very promising in my opinion! When af is due? I have digital clearblue and 2 strips of poundland 20iu/ml cheapies left.. af due Saturday-Sunday.. not sure if I want to retest tomorrow and with which test...

mrsb87 · 04/05/2017 08:54

Couldn't wait to test, bfn. Gutted.

sallywiththegoodhurr · 04/05/2017 09:01

@Viletta AF is due Sunday/Monday so I'll be 14/15 dpo then.

I'd go for the cheapies and save the clear blue for if AF doesn't arrive or you get a BFP on the cheapies.

BlueeSpottyTiger · 04/05/2017 09:19

viletta i wouldn't use the digital one there not the most reliable/sensitive.. i didn't get a postive on mine until like a week or so after i got a postive on a frer at 9dpo xx

BlueeSpottyTiger · 04/05/2017 09:29

They're*

TriJo · 04/05/2017 10:34

BFN @ 13dpo today, with a 16 day LP it's still early for me though. Will probably test again on Saturday before settling in for the crimson tide.

Viletta · 04/05/2017 11:01

@BlueeSpottyTiger @sallywiththegoodhurr
Thanks for advice!
My clearblue actually says 25ui/ml although advertised as early detection.. I wonder if there is a chance to see anything on 20ui/ml cheapies 1 day before expected AF..

ttcnovice · 04/05/2017 11:07

Good luck to all those testing soon! I'm 10DPO today with AF due on Sunday, so I'm planning to wait to test until Saturday but we all know I will test tomorrow. Haven't really had any symptoms at all though, so I'm not hopeful this month!

ttcnovice · 04/05/2017 11:07

Sorry to those with BFN's Flowers

sallywiththegoodhurr · 04/05/2017 13:36

Right, please do not shoot me..

I've just tested again with smu (held it for ages!) and there is a line, so faint I can't tell if it has colour or not.

I'm not sure why I'm doing this to myself as I'm not convincing myself either way gaaahhhh

ladydolly · 04/05/2017 14:00

It's too hard not to sally!!

With dd I had positive (allbeit faint) lines from 9do on internet cheapies so will probably do some from sunday. I also had quite a few days of bleeding around the time af was due and was convinced I was losing it but she clung on!

Ovuview has decided I am ovulating today despite having positive opks last week. I think its because I've had a temp jump, possibly due to the antibiotics I started yesterday. I also feel sick which is probably also due to antibiotics but since I was nauseas even before a bfp both with dd and my chemical.

Viletta · 04/05/2017 14:38

Hi ladies.. started having mild cramps.. might be af coming. Time will tell.

@sallywiththegoodhurr I can totally understand.. it's the unknown that's killing us. However the only solution is to wait and see. This said, try to focus on something else, something completely different.. film, book, yoga, work, cleaning:) sorry it this sounds rubbish but having a second project running normally helps me putting my head of ttc for a while..

sallywiththegoodhurr · 04/05/2017 14:55

If I had a stark white bfn to begin with I wouldn't of retested and wouldn't be obsessed now. So frustrating but you're right @Viletta, the only thing I can do now is wait

Ava1985 · 04/05/2017 15:25

Hi ladies

Hope your all well today! mrsb and trijo your not out yet till af arrives! Have my fx for you still!

I'm 6dpo today (I think!) ovia says I can test in 6 days but like anyone listens to her! 😂 So testing at 10 DPO on Monday .. Anyone else care to join me poas this upcoming Monday morning ..? Mark your place!
Smile
No symptoms here bar tender boobs as per usual X

Ava1985 · 04/05/2017 15:26

Ohh sally Fx it turns into something!

mrsb87 · 04/05/2017 16:20

Thanks ava, I have no usual signs of af so who knows what's happening?! Will see if af shows up tomorrow.

Emz01 · 04/05/2017 16:27

Fx @sallywiththegoodhurr! Keep us posted but yes I hate waiting too, a distraction is a good suggestion.

@Ava1985 I don't think I will be testing until next weekend if AF doesn't show. I think I could have ovulated late in the end which is unlike me! So I could be either 2dpo or 5dpo.

ImBreakingBad · 04/05/2017 16:37

Ovia is saying 5 days to test... do I or don't I Grin

Maybebaby2 · 04/05/2017 17:18

Yes imbreaking I would test! But only with fmu did you save any this morning just incase? (that sounds so much weirder than it is!) If not I'd probably wait till the morning if you can bare it!

mrs and trijo fx for you both, your not out yet! And ava fx for mon!

sally did you go and buy some different tests or is it the same batch?

ImBreakingBad · 04/05/2017 17:19

Maybe, I've none left! I'm currently awaiting more cheapies. Should be here today or tomorrow! I think I'm only 7dpo at most, I've no idea why Ovia seems to think I O'd a week ago Confused.

Will see anyway, I enjoy torture Smile

Maybebaby2 · 04/05/2017 17:42

I can't decide which would be more torturous, poas 20 times in one day with a bfn each time or not having a single stick to pee on and having to wait impatiently for Mr postman!! Both pretty tortuous, good job you enjoy it Grin

BlueeSpottyTiger · 04/05/2017 18:29

I'm 7dpo.. and I'll admit i tested on an ic this morning.... bfn Obz!
And i will continue to test until af lol

sallywiththegoodhurr · 04/05/2017 19:27

Maybe I've used 4 tests, all Asda tests but from 2 different packs. They are the ones I always use and apart from a bfp during my last pregnancy they have always been whiter than white bfn's.

When is everybody testing?? We should create a list and try and stick to our dates!

Viletta · 04/05/2017 19:45

I feel af is coming and not sure if I should test.. af expected Saturday-Sunday.. might just wait. I have 20ui/ml cheapie that I could use tomorrow with fmu.. but not sure if it's going to show anything since not sensitive for early testing. Will definitely test on Saturday as going on holiday in Sunday:)
