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

Hi issy, sorry to hear about your m/c. I think you are right, it's about the strength of hormone but also when you implanted as it can be later or earlier. Also the tests you use as some are much for sensitive.

So sorry to hear that @issy2165 😢

I'm going to test today I think, I've just bought some frer, would like to know before I start boozing! Xx

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 09:48

Ooooh everything crossed for you Red!!

issy2165 · 19/05/2017 10:12

Anyone else fed up of getting the hopes up? I don't want to test and get a bfn again 🙄

RedPanda25 · 19/05/2017 10:54

Yep @issy2165 fed up of it! Just done another test, a first response one but not an early one and bfn! Ah well at least it means I can drink today at the wedding! Perhaps June will be my month.

Congratulations Iamchanging! My line is progressing nicely so far but stressing about literally every symptom including any lack of symptoms. Finstead bfp and so much evidence out there of how vulnerable this pregnancy is still. Iamchanging don't worry at all about the drinks. I had a LOT of cocktails on a business trip to Italy during my 2ww and I have since done loads of reading into it because I was worried too. It's kind of an all or nothing at that stage of conception. You either inhibit your ability to implant and never get a positive pregnancy test or there is no problem. Having achieved a positive test, don't worry at all! What was the first day of your last period? We must be due around the same time! So sorry to hear bad news from some of you. Baby dust to everyone now trying for next month and I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Xxx

Kittykat89 · 19/05/2017 12:17

Sorry that should have said it was my first bfp. Autocorrect! Apparently finstead makes much more sense.

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 15:56

Hi Kitty, according to the online calculator I am due on the 26th Jan. How about you? That's really reassuring about the 2WW naughtiness thank you!
Red I'm so so sorry, I really wanted it to come up positive for you x

Arual1060 · 19/05/2017 18:20

Congratulations @Iamchanging !

Arual1060 · 19/05/2017 18:21

Sorry for the delay! For some reason it wouldn't let me post anything yesterday.... my internet was playing up Hmm

Arual1060 · 19/05/2017 18:22

Red sorry you didn't get your bfp.... Sad it will happen! Stay positive! And enjoy the wedding Wink

Arual1060 · 19/05/2017 18:23

I haven't tested again yet... maybe tomorrow. I'm not holding out much hope though...

Stevieo · 19/05/2017 18:40

Not ttc but just wanted to give a little bit of hope, I didnt get a + until the day after my missed period, even then I had to squint to see it, didnt get a bfp until about 1 week later.
My doctor even confirmed I wasnt pregnant 2 days after my period was due.

My bfn is nearly 9 mo now.

Kittykat89 · 19/05/2017 21:24

Fingers crossed for a late showing bfp. We put do much pressure on ourselves. Iamchanging online calculator says 21st Jan for me! Good luck and a happy and healthy pregnancy Smile x

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 21:50

Same to you Kitty. Fingers still crossed for you Arual

Yeeeey congratulations!! What is your due date?

carbqueen88 · 19/05/2017 23:28

I have no idea?!?! Hmm estimating around Feb?!?? Xxx

Iamchanging · 19/05/2017 23:42

I found an online calculator where you put in CD1 and it calculates. No idea if it's accurate though!!

Kittykat89 · 20/05/2017 06:45

Congratulations Carbqueen!!!!!

issy2165 · 20/05/2017 07:21

Congratulations!!!

RedPanda25 · 20/05/2017 11:16

Congratulations @carbqueen88 that's brilliant news!!

Still no af here so no idea what's going on!

Iamchanging · 20/05/2017 11:25

Could you ask for a blood test from the docs Red? Must be so frustrating for you.

RedPanda25 · 20/05/2017 12:07

Yeah maybe @Iamchanging I think I'll wait till Monday and if nothing I'll test again? I'd just rather know now. So excited for you all with your bfps though!

Arual1060 · 20/05/2017 19:17

Congratulations @carbqueen88 !

Bfn for me this morning..... absolutely gutted... no sign of af (now 4 days late) it's all so frustrating! I have first appointment at fertility clinic on 9th June, so hopefully will get some answers then
