sorry plummymuumy - didnt mean to offend x

What a gorgeuas day it is today out in garden enjoying sunshine with bunny hopping round feet (bless him)

Feel bit guilty for hanging around this thread as not pg and starting provera on Tuesday to not BFP for me this April. It is just nice on here and looking formward to seeing lots of other BFP's to keep me motivated

Gracie14 · 15/04/2007 16:02

Hi all,

Still waiting for AF!!!! Where is she? Not really any signs of her coming again yet?

Was thinking about testing again tomorrow if nothing or maybe on Tuesday?

But then I don't really have any signs of pregnancy either so proberbly should just wait for AF.

How long is your usual cycle Hannah? How late are you? I think the blood tests that you have done are quite quick.

HannahMTW · 15/04/2007 16:17

Hi Gracie,

My cycle's usually a bit irregular but has never been longer than 31 days. It's day 36 today. I'll definitely ask the doc about it. Haven't really had other signs but have waves of tummy ache (more of a bloated, dodgy tummy ache rather than period pain). It's so weird! Don't know if there could be another cause.

When's your AF due, how late are you?

Gracie14 · 15/04/2007 16:27

It can't hurt to ask the doctor especially if your going anyway.

I'm 6 days late today (CD35) I've always been 29 days since coming off the pill in august last year, so who knows I had a BFN on Friday so not really sure what to do. I'm sure i'm not pregnant no signs of it anyway.

I may wait until I'm 2 weeks late (if that happens) before going to the doctors. The not knowing is a nightmare and it's really hard not to think that it could be good news but I know if I think that then it will be harder when it is a BFN

HannahMTW · 15/04/2007 17:07

Sounds like you're the same as me! My last cycle was 29 days. It's (the AF) never been this overdue. But as you say I'm really hoping for good news and know I'm gonna be gutted if its not.

Will definitely get the doc to do the test. I had two BFNs earlier this week but the test wasn't v sensitive. That's my excuse for the mo anyway!

Hope you get a BFP soon!

scorpio1 · 15/04/2007 17:40

tiger-we won the rugby !

Still no af here, another BFN.never mind!

Went asda today (yay) and spent hideous amounts of money......

plummy-i knew it!!

hope all ok?

Lexie100 · 15/04/2007 17:47

What a lovely day. Glad all well and enjoying the sunshine.

I have been in such a bad mood all day due to BFN but i guess it might have been too early. I think i'm going mad as have been rehersing in my head what i'll say to the Dr is AF does come [humm]. Can they do a test to see if your DPO is too short??

plummymummy · 15/04/2007 18:19

Lexie, I used to have a 21 day cycle and I conceived ds straight away then got pg Jan 06 (by mistake but went on to lose)still on a 21 day cycle. After that one my cycle changed to 28 days and I conceived again late October, but again lost it. The cycle is now somewhere between 23 and 28 days and I am ttc - ironically it is taking longer. I don't know if a short cycle means you are less likely to conceive - certainly it didn't seem to disadvantage me.
Awen - I wasn't offended so please don't worry. Just meant that everyone is struggling in their own way and didn't want you to think your concerns were less valid.
Scorpio - did you get the bag?

plummymummy · 15/04/2007 18:22

Would you say there is little point ttc at CD 18? Just wondering.

scorpio1 · 15/04/2007 18:34

plummy-depends when you ov, i'd say.

worth a 'shot' surely??

Lexie100 · 15/04/2007 19:34

I ov'd on CD 17 last month, so always a chance.

Not sure why i want another baby as DD is horrid at getting to sleep and staying asleep. Not sure what to do with her at the moment .

Hopefully next one will be angelic

scorpio1 · 15/04/2007 19:37

lexie, how old is dd?my ds2 was such an angel baby-still is my baby actually,at 2.5!

second ones are easier IMO

(be strong and firm with dd!)

tigerschick · 15/04/2007 20:13

All together now ...

TIIIIIIIGERRRRRRSSSSSS

tigerschick · 15/04/2007 20:58

Sorry, I'm a bit over-excited. I know it's got nothing to do with ttc but I'm dead chuffed that we won!

And the celebratory bding should be good too

waiting4bambino · 15/04/2007 21:44

Plummy, i'd say its definitely worth bd-ing on day 18, that's what i'm on now and i got my first positive on the ov kits yesterday, so we bd'd that morning and i tested again today, still positive so we bd'd again today in the evening. As its the first time i ever got a positive using the ov sticks, i'm just gonna take advantage of it!
I'll test again tomorrow and will bd again if possible....
I had no idea i would ovulate so late, i think before i was doing it too early! I was expecting it to happen around day 14 or 15 etc. Are you temping too?

HannahMTW · 15/04/2007 21:45

why is it I cannot stop eating chocolate at the mo!?!! Is it just because I was given lots for Easter? Yes probably...

tigerschick · 16/04/2007 09:20

Morning all!

Congratulations to those of you who have successfully survived the Easter holidays with dc home all day

Plummy - I'd say it's definately worth bding for several days either side of when you are due to ov. My body is rather f*ed up so I think it's worth spreading your efforts, so to speak, just in case you ov a few day earlier or later than you thought. Hope that makes sense!

I spent Saturday night with a friend who has 2 dss, ds1 is nearly 3 and ds2 is 14mo. On the one hand I was quite scared at the thought of having to watch over 2 little ones, they seemed to both need attention at once but never together! But then, yesterday morning, my friend got ds2 out of his cot and put him in ds1's bedroom then she went back to bed and they played together for about half an hour. It made me want another baby even more, seeing them playing so happily together! I suppose there are pros and cons to everything in life and, as long as the pros out weigh the cons, then you have to go after the things you want! Sorry if that's all a bit philisophical for this time on a Monday morning

Hope you all have a lovely day today.
Anyone testing? Scorpio, I've forgotten where you are up to?

HannahMTW · 16/04/2007 09:36

I've just tested, BFN again! Yet CD37! Used first response, don't know how good they are, still waiting for delivery of the 10 miu ultra sensitive tests. Went to docs this morning too, they don't do tests any more. I didn't know that!

If I'm not pregnant then what the hell's going on with my bod?! I don't know...

Good luck to any other testers, hoping for some BFPs!

Bbabymumma · 16/04/2007 10:09

Hi all

Haven't been on MN for a while but am trying to catch up. There's been so many BFPs! This has to be the luckiest thread ever. AM cd18 and AF due 25/4.

Plummy - I gave up bding on cd16, now I feel I should have continued but the romance was dwindling. Maybe that's where I'm going wrong! Might get the ov sticks next month.

Tigerschick - I feel the same when I see families with 2. I know it would be lovely for my dd to have a sibling but its just not happening for us at the mo.

HannahMTW BFN - hmm! Still have hope until AF arrives. With my dd I have 3 BFNs.

DH is off to China next week so if i get a BFP (which I have a feeling I won't) - you shall be the only ones with me sharing the drama.

Looking out for symptoms. Ridiculous - I'd only be a few days after conception.

scorpio1 · 16/04/2007 10:34

hi everyone

i have SO much work to do today its unbelivable (for uni), and i dont know how i'm supposed to with 2 little ones here!?!

CD37 here, af 9 days late, still bfn. am going to the doctors on friday if its still not here, because it will be 2 weeks late by then.

thats about it from me!

HannahMTW · 16/04/2007 10:37

So you think there's still a chance I could be PG? It's all v weird.

Don't blame you for symptom-searching! Every little twinge, odd taste, funny-tummy feeling begs the "could I be?" question!

Keep hoping anyway, I bet no.2 will arrive unexpectedly before you know it!

Hi everyone, can I jump on the thread and say Hi? TTC No.2 for about a year. Joined FF to chart my temps and this morning actually got a coverline and confirmation that I've ov'd and BD'd well enough to get a "good" score. Sitting at work and really can't be bothered to do anything after such a gorgeous weekend and DS being utterly scrumptious playing in the paddling pool. I miss him.

Good luck everyone.

HannahMTW · 16/04/2007 10:39

Sorry that last post was kinda for BBabymumma!

Hey Scorpio, I'm CD 37 too. Had another BFN. Don't get it!

HannahMTW · 16/04/2007 10:42

Hi cheechymunchy, sounds promising for you, good luck!
