I'm off the September Bus before it even leaves the station and thanks to my longer cycle I thought I'd start the October page.

Cycle #3
BFP due October 4th

I think...! Brand of hpt (home pregnancy test) at any rate.

felicityheather · 28/09/2017 19:10

Thanks for those of you being nice to me! Congrats to those with bfp's and bed

felicityheather · 28/09/2017 19:11

Best of luck to those still waiting!

Having trouble with my phone...didn't mean to post this as so many entries!!

Mummyloves09 · 28/09/2017 19:14

Mines are just cheap early detection test from online

BeautifulLiar · 28/09/2017 19:30

Oh wow! Congratulations girls!

hoopdeloop · 28/09/2017 19:49

Can I be cheeky and ask when your Af was due? I'm desperate to test! Congrats again guys!

Steaksauce · 28/09/2017 20:02

Urgh whyyyyy? After my bfn this morning, I got to work and googled the odds of getting pregnant at 37 and found loads of articles with graphs showing chances dropping like a stone at around 37. And chances of miscarriage climbing really high. So I've now convinced myself that it's never going to happen, I'm totally bummed out about it - I hate my job but don't want to risk leaving and had a migraine yesterday and still have the headache today that painkillers aren't touching.
I'm so fed up.

Congrats to all the bfps - really chuffed for you all.
Flowers for everyone who feels a bit shit today.

Mummyloves09 · 28/09/2017 20:03

Thanks ladies

AF is due tomorrow however I have had really light spotting.

I will test again on Sunday before I get my hopes up.
Good luck ladies,
lots and lots of baby dust sent your way Smile

Mummyloves09 · 28/09/2017 20:08

@steaksauce sorry to hear your having a bad time at the moment.
Have faith in you body there is lots of women more and more nowadays having babies at 40+.... so I'm sure you will be just fine. Smile

81Josie · 28/09/2017 20:08

@steaksauce try not to get too down about it. I'm 36 so in a similar position to you. I figure some people get pregnant into there 40's others can't in the 20's you just don't know

MegEmski · 28/09/2017 20:09

Yes FRER - AF due Wednesday so quite early to test. Paranoid line will disappear.
Planning on poas Saturday and Wednesday morning

Trying not to feel too happy and confident until I get a proper dark line on a less sensitive test

Emz01 · 28/09/2017 20:54

@Mummyloves09 I can see it too! FX for you and everyone else still left to test!

Wow lots of BFP’s FX and baby dust to everyone still to test.

Really trying not to get my hopes up too, just hope this one sticks. Will test again on Sunday/Monday to make sure line is still there and getting darker.

HolyShmoly · 28/09/2017 22:01

Oh god MegEmski, I'm due on Wednesday and I thought Sunday was pushing it for an early test. You're breaking my resolve!

Tonight I had Wagamama (with prawn) a beer and the cinema. I figure if I'm going to be off alcohol for the best part of two years I'll enjoy it while I still can! Although if stress isn't good for a developing blastocyst/embryo I probably messed up by seeing Dunkirk. That is one stressful film!

I’m trying not to get too excited! Wiped this evening, and had around 4 SPECKS of pink blood on the tissue. Nothing more than that and only was noticed as I’ve began to closely inspect every wipe Blush I’ve only ever had this twice before - both during tww the months I fell pregnant!
Before AF is due I always get a lot of brown spotting, but never pink. It’s probably my body being evil and playing tricks, but I can’t lie, I have a teeny bit of hope now! I’ve also had a crampy tummy feeling this evening Grin

Aph413 · 28/09/2017 22:15

Made myself have a couple of glasses of wine this evening to relax and take my mind off my wait. My first possible AF date has now passed with no bleeding or positive test so it's now a wait to see what next week brings

lindypops33 · 28/09/2017 22:20

Hi everyone. Congrats to all the BFPs!
I unfortunately am joining the down in the dumps gang! Almost 6 weeks now off the pill. Did a couple more HPTs after the one I posted last week with the line on but all BFN. And still no sign of AF at all. So I literally have nothing to go on right now.
What I do have is tender boobs (but only when pressed) and spots popping up all over my chin. Oh yay!! Oh and CM everywhere!!! So much!!
Sigh. I dyed my blonde hair purple just to have something else to think about!

MegEmski · 29/09/2017 06:31

@holyschmoly I was trying to resist until Monday! But I had a counselling session yesterday and wanted to know before.... although it could be wrong despite the faint bfp as so early so it may have been pointless anyway!

MegEmski · 29/09/2017 06:32

I've been drinking and eating everything too, I've just been on a 2 week holiday to Africa.

Fingerscrossedandfairydust · 29/09/2017 06:42

Had my BBT shift this morning so officially in the TWW. Really hope this is our month!!

hoopdeloop · 29/09/2017 06:52

Think I'll test tomorrow, was sick this morning which was an early indicator with pregnancy with my DS, otherwise I've picked up a bug from the kids at school!

Have the spotiest chin area in the world too so this better be a symptom or AF is being a right bitch this month

Fia256 · 29/09/2017 07:43

Spotty chin over here too!! I’ve also woken up with a sore throat, my left eye is puffy, itchy and extremely bloodshot, suffering with bad gas Blush and I have my interview this morning!! Did a frer this morning and can’t tell if it’s an indent line or the start of a line. Really don’t feel like I’m winning today!!

hoopdeloop · 29/09/2017 07:48

Good luck for your interview today @Fia256 and fingers crossed it's a positive line :)

Owlpatrol · 29/09/2017 07:53

I've got all the af symptoms sore boobs mood swings etc so holding out a week till af due before testing because I've been late before and waisted loads on tests! Me and dp away this weekend so looking forward to chill out time hope everyone has a good weekend xxx

MegEmski · 29/09/2017 08:10

@Fia256 good luck with the interview
Have a good weekend @Owlpatrol hope you can relax

Fingers crossed for everyone and sending baby dust

MegEmski · 29/09/2017 08:30

I've read too much and convinced this is going to be a chemical and the line will disappear :(

Need to stop over thinking....
