78th day of no period....

As the title suggests, I haven't had a period since the 18th October. I came off cerazette at the start of June and have had irregular cycles since but this is by far the longest.

DH and I are TTC and I last took a pregnancy test at the start of December so I'm fairly confident I'm not pregnant (we were both sick after that and didn't have any inclination to DTD).

We finally DTD on 26th and 27th December and yesterday I had really sore breasts and some cramps and EWCM in the morning for the first time in a long time, but we only managed to DTD late last night. Im mildly cramping this morning and have watery CM. These long cycles are so confusing! Is there a chance we might've caught ovulation this month? How long should I wait before testing?

Nothing here either. Now CD78. I've decided if I get to 90 days I'm making an appointment at the docs. That'll be 3 months and I'm really worried I'm not ovulating. Sadtime isn't on my side so if the doc can prescribe something to get me going it would really help.

Sending lots of baby dust your way lovely ladies

Tinker315b · 28/01/2018 19:38

No nothing happening with me either! Not even cramps or anything at the minute, just really fatigued and headaches.

Has anyone else experienced spotting? Pink/brown in CM! I thought with having it for 3 days last week something would have happened by now Confused

Sure you’ve not ovulated before AF? It’s possible to get pregnant before you get an AF. Give it 10 days and if still no AF I’d test Tinker

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 19:44

@RD2011 Are you taking folic acid? Thats essential to take when you're TTC to get your body ready for baby.

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 19:45

Oooh @Karigan1 I am excited for you! Fingers crossed sweetie xxx

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 19:46

@jellybeans81 if you go to Docs let us know how you get on. I'd be curious to hear as I feel the same x

SpadesOfGlory · 28/01/2018 19:48

No real updates from me either unfortunately. Very faint opks now on cd15 so I think (hope) I might've ovulated sometime on wednesday or Thurs as that's when I got a fairly dark opk. Either that or my body geared up for it and then it didn't happen. Suppose I'll see in another 2 weeks or so if AF shows!

I'm taking 4 supplement tablets a day...DH says if he shook me I'd rattle Grin

@jellybeans81 I was at your stage when I booked my drs appointment....AF then arrived out of the blue a few days later so it was a 80-something day cycle. So I say book the appointment and sods law says you'll get AF Wink

@Karigan1 I have done countless Ovulation tests and all negative! I done a phone test on Friday morning so 4 days after the spotting started.. it was also negative! Yes I think I’ll do another test next Friday and see! Just hate the disappointment, but can’t understand the spotting when nothing has came of it!

Karigan1 · 28/01/2018 19:51

Yep I booked and it turned up the same day but I was less patient than you and only got to 50ish days

Karigan1 · 28/01/2018 19:52

Maybe book in to get your levels checked as could be a hormone imbalance. Are you taking magnesium. It helps rebalance post pill etc and helps with spotting. Also good for general fertility.

Tinker315b · 28/01/2018 19:52

@Karigan1 Pg not phone! Stupid auto correct!

Tinker315b · 28/01/2018 19:55

No the only thing I’m taking is Folic acid pre conception! The spotting started out of the blue 3 1/2 weeks after stopping Cerazette, lasted for 3 and a bit days then stopped. Wasn’t heavy at all, literally just a few streaks in CM and that was it and only when I wiped! Yes I think I will get an appointment if I do another test and it’s negative! Will also try the magnesium as I actually have some, thanks!

PickettBowtruckles · 28/01/2018 20:49

I'm currently CD64 and no signs of anything happening 😫 Still getting reasonably dark second lines on OPKs regularly, and did a preg test yesterday but just another BFN! Feel like I'm going to quit using the OPKs soon as they're just winding me up!

78th day of no period....
LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 20:55

@Pickettbowtruckles Some good dark lines there! Fingers crossed xx

Tinker315b · 28/01/2018 20:56

Yea @PickettBowtruckles I feel the same, it’s just completely disheartening! I keep saying that’s the last one yet I keep doing more. Mines are just showing a faint line which means a negative! And I’m using the Ovia app which is pointless as it’s saying I’m in the fertile window everyday and doesn’t have a clue cos I’ve no AF!

PickettBowtruckles · 28/01/2018 20:58

@LifeOfRiley63 the problem is they look like that all the time! Just another example from last month...

78th day of no period....
PickettBowtruckles · 28/01/2018 20:59

@Tinker315b I do the same! Keep saying it's the last one and then just carry on! My Ovia just has a ton of question marks now as it has no idea what's going on 😂

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 21:03

This is my Ovia app constantly.

78th day of no period....
Tinker315b · 28/01/2018 21:10

That’s basically the exact same as mines only I’ve to test in 12 days haha!! 😂

RD2011 · 28/01/2018 21:17

Will have to invest in some folic acid... is there anything else people suggest?

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 21:23

@RD2011 I don't know what everyone elses uses but I've got a pillbox(!) with: folic acid, starflower oil, evening primrose oil, magnesium, agnus castus, soya isoflavones and soon some CQ10.

PickettBowtruckles · 28/01/2018 21:24

Bloody Ovia!

RD2011 · 28/01/2018 21:26

Wow @LifeOfRiley63 I'm an amateur at this! I know nothing about supplements or there power in ttc. Been feeling very deflated tonight... guess it's hit me that its going to be harder than first anticipated. I remember the night I stopped my pill and feeling so optimistic Sad

LifeOfRiley63 · 28/01/2018 21:35

@RD2011 I completely agree and felt the exact same way. I remember the night we both agreed I'd stop the pill and start trying. It was earlier than I'd planned but we thought 'Oh why not, we've waited for the right time long enough!'. Oh how hindsight is a wonderful thing. I remember not sleeping a wink that night, I sat up all night wide awake.

RD2011 · 28/01/2018 21:38

@LifeOfRiley63 crazy isn't it... I remember for the first 2 months or so buying so many pregnancy tests as I was getting symptoms. All negative of course.. I just don't know where to start... do I try ovulation tests or is it pointless if I'm not having periods?
