Hello everyone,

Not been on the boards for a while, and feel some May threads are far too big to join now! Thought I'd make a little one for anyone due AF this coming Sunday/Monday (then join June threads if no BFP).

Quick background: Been ttc since last year with no luck, not even a sniff of a line! Was a regular on conception boards but started it find the whole ttc lark quite stressful so we stopped trying for a while. We are now TTC again but trying to be relaxed about it! Had 2 MC's (one with a D&C) about 3 years ago.

Only symptoms so far is very strong metallic taste in mouth. Normally have PMS symptoms by now but nothing.

Please join and test with me, and stop me going mad! This is the most positive I've felt in ages Grin

Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 06:13

I'm sorry mother, that's a bummer. Fingers crossed for you next month. Welcome petal - I'm going to be hanging around here for a little bit until my line darkens up (hopefully!)

PetalMettle · 18/05/2017 06:28

Good luck iam. I had a very pale line to start with with ds.
No symptoms this time except incredibly sore boobs when ds is feeding!

PetalMettle · 18/05/2017 06:30

Oh and @iamchanging I took a test when pg with ds and it was negative so I went out and had a few drinks - 3 days later I still hadn't come on and got a positive! Dc was absolutely fine

Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 06:44

Thanks Petal, that makes me feel better. I've been so good the whole holiday until last night!!

RedPanda25 · 18/05/2017 06:50

Such good news @Iamchanging!!! So pleased for you! And definitely don't worry about last night, I'm sure it won't have affected the baby at all xx

Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 06:52

Thanks Red,
Can't quite believe it after 11 months!!

RedPanda25 · 18/05/2017 07:02

Another bfn here today and af due today so I'm out. Just going to wait for af now! Had such a good feeling about this month too!

Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 07:19

Sorry red, I've still got my fingers crossed for you. Some people don't just show up until very late x

RedPanda25 · 18/05/2017 08:06

Is an evap line colourless? Just looked again before throwing it away and it looks like this now...

Anybody due on Monday (15th) & want to POAS with me?
Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 08:25

I'm not sure Red but I can 100% see a line there!!!!

RedPanda25 · 18/05/2017 08:31

@Iamchanging this was after I went back to it so way after the time limit, think it must be evap 😢 apparently pink tests are better but I can't find any in the supermarkets here!

Iamchanging · 18/05/2017 08:35

I've never had the faintest hint of a line on any test no matter how long I've left it. I'd defo try again tomorrow, really got everything crossed for you!!! Would love to have a pregnancy buddy!

RedPanda25 · 18/05/2017 08:42

Thanks @Iamchanging me too, it would be great to have a buddy! All the other tests I've done have remains negative however long I left them too! Trying to get a pink dye test now to see if that makes a different.

MightyLightningMouse · 18/05/2017 12:20

Hi @RedPanda25 where are you based? Could you get some pink dyes from Amazon maybe?

My Af came 2 days late absolutely gutted but hey ho. It's been almost a year now!  maybe next month.

@Iamchanging fabulous news I'm so pleased for you! I know lots of people who did far worse before knowing they were pregnant and all babies were healthy so try not to worry! Wishing you a H&H 9 months! So happy to have a few BFPs on here!

So sorry @MightyLightningMouse! Really have my fingers crossed for next month for you.

AF still hasn't turned up but we're on our way to York for the weekend so will buy a frer tomorrow if still no show. Have no idea what's going on now!

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 05:11

Thanks mighty! I had such strong cramps in the night that they work me up which worries me slightly. I hope that things work out for you next month.
Red - are you testing today or tomorrow?

RedPanda25 · 19/05/2017 06:51

@Iamchanging I think cramps can be fairly common in early pregnancy so try not to worry - hard though isn't it?

Well I was due on yesterday not I'm normally like clockwork and nothing yet so think I'll test tomorrow if she doesn't show today. Although I'm going to a good friends wedding today so don't know whether to have a few drinks or not!

PetalMettle · 19/05/2017 06:57

Hope it's ok iam
Red I would to invoke the law of sod
I am going to a wine tasting tomorrow so I guess I'll have to test before that If I've not come on!

issy2165 · 19/05/2017 07:05

Af is due a week today for me, last night I had about a fimble of blood over the course of about 5 hours and now it's gone I had very mild cramping the day before, all gone now, could this be implantation bleeding?

carbqueen88 · 19/05/2017 07:07

2 days late now, but BFN on Wednesday.

Scared to test again, I can't take the let down xxx

issy2165 · 19/05/2017 07:18

My doctor said it will 100% show up 10 days after you have finished ovulating so I'm going by that!

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 07:22

Just to say issy that mine didn't. I got a bfn at 10dpo - wasn't until 14dpo that I got a bfp

issy2165 · 19/05/2017 07:25

It's all to do with the strength of the hormone in your body's isn't it? Everyone's different! Last time I didn't know I wasn't actively trying for a baby just took a test when I was wondering why I was eating copeous amounts of meat greasy pasta from Asda and bam! So no idea how far along I was when I did that so sadly mc ☹️
