Feeling a bit sad

I'm two weeks late and still no BFP. I shouldn't have got my hopes up but I really thought I might get a Christmas BFP, stupid I know!
I had light spotting when I was due AF but nothing else. GP booked me a blood test but not for another week and I just can't bear the waiting!
Anyone else feeling a bit blue this Christmas?

@LittlemissF I'm so sorry, I didn't see your reply! Have you tested again? The test looks good to me! 😍😍 the blood test was ok, apparently I've got hypothyroidism... and AF finally came today.. but I'm pleased I have a diagnosis! I hope your doctor starts listening to you! Fingers crossed for more lovely news for you x

@MyBumpIsOnlyPudding can I just ask you a couple of questions about hypothyroidism as my GP is currently putting me through tests for that? Firstly, I'm glad you have a diagnosis so you can start fixing it. If I'm not being too rude for asking, could you possibly tell me what your symptoms were (in particular did you have a very low bbt?), what you wete tested for in blood tests, and how it ended up being diagnosed? Would be really grateful. Many thanks x

@surreygirl1987 not a problem at all! They tested me because my AF was so late, but I've always had very long cycles and I've also got a history of depression and anxiety, which is apparently linked! I'm always tired and have dry eczema prone skin, but I never realised these were all linked to hypothyroidism. I was actually expecting to be tested for PCOS, but they said they'd check for hypothyroidism first. I've not done BBTs though, so I'm afraid I can't help with that. Hope you get the answers you're looking for x

Not sure exactly what it was, but it was three thyroid hormones and HCG too x
