@Cakelaur congratulations!

AF arrived with a vengeance this morning. 2 days late. Unwelcome cowbag! If she's coming to come she can at least have the decency to arrive on time! 😡

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 08:38

Totally unexpected. I stopped progesterone cream for AF to show and it never did. I'm now 15dpo. A little worried that I've only just got a line show up. And my cbfm still says not pregnant. Just gonna wait a couple more days and test again.

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 08:39

Looks like the marathon did pay off. But I drank almost a whole bottle of wine last night with OH and my parents!! Hahaha!! And had pate!!!! Omg!!!

Daffodil77 · 10/04/2018 08:43

Is there any chance you ovulated later? Could also have implanted later. A line is a line. Keeping everything crossed it gets darker. Xx

It could be later implantation. I defo ovulated when I did. Just not sure if I should carry on with the progesterone cream again

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 08:47

Here's a better pic. It's still very faint for 15dpo

@Cakelaur yes!!!!! Amazing!!!!! So so happy for you!
Sorry for bfns @weasledee and @patience ofatoddler

Boboelephant · 10/04/2018 08:57

@Cakelaur think of the wine and pate as a send off! No more for 9 months 😀

Boboelephant · 10/04/2018 08:58

@randomuntrainedcuntowner sorry af got you. Stupid cow.

Daffodils86 · 10/04/2018 09:02

@Cakelaur congratulations! I had a feeling this might happen.

Laney79 · 10/04/2018 09:03

@Cakelaur huge congratulations. Gives me hope X

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 10/04/2018 09:06

Beautiful news @Cakelaur!

peachesarenom · 10/04/2018 09:13

Cakelaur my epu said to come back at 5 weeks for a scan, what did yours say?

Kingy2910 · 10/04/2018 09:20

Aaawww c8ngrats cakelaur lovely news

Claire138 · 10/04/2018 09:23

@cakelaur fantastic news!! Congratulations! That is amazing! Were you using those other pregnancy tests before this FRER? I think I’m going to have to do the mega marathon next month if I don’t catch this month!

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 09:24

Sorry @randomuntrainedcuntowner and @weasledee really insensitive of me to post around your bfns. I was honestly so shocked i just posted without reading around.

But there is hope ladies I just hope this one sticks but grab your men. You need a marathon, some pineapple core, pre seed, so progesterone cream, and a puppy!!! Haha

HidCat · 10/04/2018 09:29

@Cakelaur that's fantastic. Fingers and toes crossed everything goes well from here on out!

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 09:29

@peachesarenom I haven't even contacted epu or Drs or anyone. I called my OH in tears. And sat sobbing on the bathroom floor until 9am then realised I was late for work!! Haha. I'm of course worried the line is so faint and it's 15dpo. I mean it's not a squinted but it's not dark.

xLeanne128 · 10/04/2018 09:30

Congratulations!!! Xx

peachesarenom · 10/04/2018 09:34

I wouldn't be concerned about how dark the line is but I understand why you are. Maybe stick with the progesterone cream till you see the epu, I'd give them a call, I'm sure they'll help reassure you!

Beck1988 · 10/04/2018 10:11

@cakelaur so made up for you hopefully get darker over the coming days!
@boboelephant thanks for asking, I've had a few period style cramps yesterday & fuller sore boobs ( but the boobs is normal now anyway) had metallic taste twice yesterday! But not sure if it was from something I had eaten? Will be looking out for it again! Also woke up today with lower back ache. 🤞10dpo today. X

hayleyfx · 10/04/2018 10:16

Sorry for the bfn’s Sad but you’re not out until af shows! @weasledee @Patienceofatoddler
@Cakelaur omg! Congrats, I’m delighted for you! Grin everything crossed for you that the line gets nice & dark! 🤞🏼

zarala · 10/04/2018 10:35

Yes @Cakelaur
I had a feeling this may happen! So happy for you!!!! Really hoping it all works out well.
As someone who isn't as prolific as you guys in the POAS game - I would strongly recommend getting the clear blue tests and seeing what they say.
In all my pregnancies I have had negative pregnancy tests even up until 17dpo and only got positives with the clear blue- the ones that say how far along you are - so go POAS!

weasledee · 10/04/2018 10:50

Cake don't apologise at all!! Thrilled for you! I've already told my OH that next month we're "doing a cake" and he better prepare himself for the marathon!! Smile

Cakelaur · 10/04/2018 10:58

Thanks ladies. I'm utterly terrified! As you can all imagine! I scared to get excited! I defo won't breathe until 8week scan and I see a heartbeat.

I'll of course be peeing on different sticks every day. IC was a mega squinter when frer was defo there. I'm just so shocked. At the weekend I'm gonna do a cb digital weeks indicator.
