Im not sure if im even ovulating properly. Each month ive been hopeful its been a longer and more miserable visit from AF :(

GreenDill · 08/08/2017 20:32

So Af was due between Sunday and today ...still no sign. Tested on Sunday evening with a poundshop test to stow my twitching hands ..bfn so assumed af was coming today. And nothing. Af always comes first thing in the morning ..boots digital test this afternoon (4pm) bfn. What the heck is going on?! Apart from when I've been pregnant my period hasn't been late in 13 years Hmm

IntelligentPutty · 08/08/2017 21:25

Awww @pocketfullofsunshine hugs to you. It's so f**king crazy when it's like this.

@GreenDill I had this once about a year ago. No idea why though. How old are you. Could that be a factor. I'm 38 (now, I think. I'm losing count of the years).

GreenDill · 08/08/2017 23:09

Hey intelligent I'm 23 so I doubt age is a factor just no clue what's happening - my heads all over the place. Like I'm clinging on to the hope that I might be pregnant, but in reality I know that I'm not, i just don't know why I'm late as I never ever have beenSad

IntelligentPutty · 08/08/2017 23:11

Hey @GreenDill
Well I'd say it's not age then.
Hope it comes soon BFP or af.
I understand the ups and downs of the waiting xx

IntelligentPutty · 08/08/2017 23:12

So have u had periods and consistent since age 10...

GreenDill · 08/08/2017 23:16

Yeah, my periods started when I was 10 and they have always been 28 days. My mums got a hormone imbalance so she kept track of them until I was old enough to do so myself - although I've had tests done and know that I have no hormonal issues. And thank you, I hope you get your BFP soon too xx

EmmyOlly · 09/08/2017 07:55

@GreenDill time is key but it's so frustrating! I've no idea what's going on, I've either had implantation bleeding of the very start of AF.. but I'm not due till Monday and the spotting has started and stopped! Trying to relax and not take a test till Monday now unless AF shows up xx

EmmyOlly · 09/08/2017 07:58

Also I'm a bit confused as why people are so snappy and short here, I thought it was an inclusive supportive thread? Possibly hormones 😉! Sending positive thoughts for BFP's x

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 09/08/2017 08:27

@GreenDill It must be a nightmare that it's all up in the air. How is today looking for you? There are cases where people have been pregnant but it takes a while to show up because of a late implantation date. It's a long shot but you never know.

@EmmyOlly Here's hoping that it doesn't arrive. It's sounding pretty good.

Let's go with all the hormones.

Crazycatlady80 · 09/08/2017 08:41

Hello everyone.

Thought I would jump on board

TTC #1
Cycle 2
AF/BFP due 22nd Aug

Thought I would join in the chat, trying for number 2, already have a 14mo DS, part of me can't wait the other part thinks I'm mad. Finally got my first static smile yesterday on clear blue after 3 flashing days and nothing last month, so fingers crossed for the next 2 weeks. It's going to be a long wait as DH is off to china at the weekend for 10 days 🙄😫

Fingers crossed for everyone

GreenDill · 09/08/2017 09:09

Emmy that sounds equally frustrating!! Our body can be cruel sometimes! Fingers crossed it was an implantation bleed for you!! Flowers

Unicorns I took another test this morning bfn so I've got no clue what's happening, I just want to cry tbh lol. I've got so much hope in regards to a possible late implantation, But I know I'm just getting my hopes up Sad

Crazycatlady80 · 09/08/2017 09:11

Opps I meant TTC#2

MiniMummy576 · 09/08/2017 09:16

So it turns out that dh is as impatient as me! Internet cheapy from last night and my last Sainsbury's own brand from this morning! 🙊

Looks pretty damn positive to me @MiniMummy! Grin

MrsLadyL · 09/08/2017 09:27

Congratulations wishing you a happy healthy 9months!! How many DPO are you? X

McTufty · 09/08/2017 09:32

Clear positive minimummy! Congratulations!

Welcome crazycatlady! Hopefully you managed lots of action on static smiley day Smile! How come nothing last month? Not even flashing ones? Pleased things have improved this month.

greendill you never know! I agree not helpful to get hopes up but I 'know' lots of people who haven't tested positive till after period due. These boards are full of such stories! Possibly you implanted late, have low HCG, or even ovulated a bit later than you think. I know it's frustrating, hugs Flowers

emmyolly sounds like you're in with a good shot! Good luck!

pocketfull awww, you poor thing. Why do you think not ovulating properly?

As for me, day 5 of flashing smiley but last cycle I got a positive OPK on afternoon of day 5 so hopefully my static is coming up!

MiniMummy576 · 09/08/2017 09:43

@MrsLadyL 12 or 13 dpo (depending on which app you believe!) Smile

DH spent several minutes arguing that there wasn't a line on the internet cheapy - but I think he was just doing that to wind me up Grin

Crazycatlady80 · 09/08/2017 09:44

Hi mctufty

The had about 6 days of flashy smileys but gave up after that. I think I ovulated a week after I stopped testing, it was the first month after stopping the pill so think it was a bit slow to get going, all seems to be back to normal this month.

ally62442 · 09/08/2017 09:46

Yay!! Congratulations @MiniMummy576 that's brilliant!

Have any of you ladies who's had previous pregnancies ever had an early scan? I don't know if I've said previously but I will be having to have an early scan as I have a blood condition. So once pregnancy is officially confirmed I'll be on daily clexane injections Confused

MrsLadyL · 09/08/2017 09:47

Fantastic news very exciting times ahead. Yea I agree these apps are awol just deleted them all and kept my good old faithful Iv always had since before kids(period tracker) going to ease off a little and just let nature take its corse. Tossed my OPK also not doing myself any favours. Off on holiday for 10 days in oct so maybe that shall relax me kids be back at school and work will be easing off, maybe stand in a better position then 😊 Going to tap out unless anything changes. But wish all you lovely ladies all the very best of luck and lots and lots of baby dust!! 👶🏻❤️

McTufty · 09/08/2017 09:48

crazycatlady

Oh first month off the pill anything goes! I am third cycle off and still all over the place Smile

ally I've never been pregnant so can't help sorry! Good luck!

MrsLadyL · 09/08/2017 10:02

I had early scans with both at 9weeks. Both my pregnancies were identical had large bleeds at 9weeks. My history isn't great so don't know why I didn't expect anything less. My girls were born 28&29 weeks spontaneously. Never had a reason! Had issues with bleeding ever since. Had various scans bloods as thought it was a thyroid condition ect but nill. I had surgery in may as had growth on ovary with turned out to be nothing and they removed polyps also. Got them to fit marina while I was under GA also to reduce the bleeding I was told. Had nothing but issues ever since and Only 4 weeks ago I requested to get it checked (as they don't do it anymore?) yip it had dislodged itself had to be removed immediately and subcome to infection!! Week of antibiotics so this is first cycle since all that drama. Had AF and got positive OPK so just assumed all was okay straight away. Maybe just track for a few month get myself back to normal. Sorry for the long post ha just a little insight into my crazy ride!! 😩😂

ally62442 · 09/08/2017 11:47

We're they internal ultrasounds? Or just the normal ones? @MrsLadyL an hopefully once everything is back to normal you'll get your bfp!

MrsLadyL · 09/08/2017 12:04

No no they managed to pick up on normal. But if you're under 6 tends to be internal x
