I know a few people will unfortunately be joining me eventually so I figured I'd get this bus going.
My cycles are crazy and averaging 60 days and I don't think I've ovulated yet so I'm out for April.

Age: 27
TTC: #1
Cycle: #4 (month 8)
CD: #25

Not holding much hope for conception at the moment but I've got to wait until August anyway.
Such an optimistic person to start the new bus!

Definitely a negative on the FRER. 3days before AF due so should be showing by now. Very frustrated. :(

Owlpatrol · 17/05/2018 22:22

@BuntyII I still love that advice it gives me hope every month!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 18/05/2018 09:56

@bubblybrit. And @xlauraa. How are you doing? x

xLauraa · 18/05/2018 10:06

@Owlpatrol sorry about the stupid NHS losing your results! But at least it can be done again, don't lose faith!

@LookingAtTheStars89 I've replied on the other thread xx

Hi all,

I'm on month 13 now! Had 21 day blood test this month and results came back 'normal'. My cycle is always 28-29 days depending on my O day - I expected af on Wednesday but so far she's a no show and until today my temps have looked good, but took a test this morning an bfn. Gutted and no idea what to think. I'm never this late.

Here's my chart (it's my first month charting and my thermometer didn't turn up until a few days in - previously I just used opks and relied on symptoms. It always seems to be around day 14).

Any advice appreciated!

@Han2699 oh your graph does look good perhaps wait 2 days and test again?

I was going to test this morning but cramps have starred so I didn't bother in the end. Af due around Wednesday next week x

polkadotjersey · 18/05/2018 14:10

Han2699 I've been temping since January (only on Cycle 2 TTC though) and my temperature normally drops right down towards the cover line like that just before AF I'm afraid.

It can bounce back up again though you're not out yet.

Han2699 · 18/05/2018 14:37

I'm expecting af to arrive because of that temp drop, but as this is my first month tempting I don't know what my normal pattern is. Will wait and see what happens with it tomorrow. Fingers crossed anyway... and same for you @Owlpatrol Smile

bubblybrit · 18/05/2018 17:08

@LookingAtTheStars89. I’m currently on CD8 so expecting the fun and games to start again in a few days. How’s you? X

EverythingNow · 20/05/2018 09:03

Good morning all! It’s a little quiet on here, 6dpo here and AF not due until 27th - who else is still left?

Obviously no symptoms to report...but I was woken in the night having sharp stabbing pains in my lower stomach so of course I’m hoping it was implantation rather than indigestion Grin

sauvblanc21 · 20/05/2018 09:58

Turns out forcing ourselves to have very unsexy mid-flu sex this month was worth it Smile

Aw congratulations @sauvblanc21!

sauvblanc21 · 20/05/2018 10:43

Thank you @EverythingNow! X

BuntyII · 20/05/2018 11:33

Congratulations @sauvblanc21!

@EverythingNow I'm here... 8dpo and due on at the weekend. It's driving me mad not testing! My boobs are sore and I'm a bit bloated and gassy.

starsandstuff · 20/05/2018 12:07

I'm not sure when I ov this month, felt what I consider ov pain on the 10th, which would be early, but then same again on the opposite side on the 16th, so I'm either 10dpo or 4dpo (or neither!) Either way prob too early to test, but felt odd this morning - nauseous, weird "pulling" feeling down there, so I stupidly tested. BFN obviously! Had promised myself I'd wait til AF is due but I can see what I'm going to be like Grin

starsandstuff · 20/05/2018 12:07

Oh congrats @sauvblanc21 !! Thanks

EverythingNow · 20/05/2018 15:09

Hi @BuntyII and @starsandstuff glad I’m not alone!

BuntyII · 20/05/2018 15:24

I caved and tested too which was daft as it was always going to be negative. There was a shadow on it which caught my eye though but couldn't see it when I took a picture Blush

I’m trying to talk myself out of buying tests, last month I didn’t get a positive until 12dpo so there really is no point buying them until later on in the week...
I can’t pretend I’ll have the willpower not to test early and I’d rather know if I have another chemical.

sauvblanc21 · 20/05/2018 16:18

Thank you lovely ones. I've had very sore boobs and the odd stabby pain so hopefully your symptoms are good news too ladies.
Somehow, I managed not to test until 2 days after missed period (today)! Partly because with my son, it took 3 negatives on days 1,2,3 post missed period before I got a positive!
I have my fingers very tightly crossed for you all xx

HidCat · 20/05/2018 18:48

@sauvblanc21 congratulations!

@BuntyII I couldn't see it but fingers crossed for a clear line a couple of days!

winterwarmers · 21/05/2018 05:25

so ive made it to 11dpo thanks to taking b6 which is better than the other month where it was only 9dpo.

My temp did dip yesterday and i thought af was on the way but back up this morning, bfn though :(

Pudding01 · 21/05/2018 06:03

Looks like I'm out this month. Woke up to af in all her strength! Absolutely gutted ☹️

Good news is it was exactly 28 days, so maybe I'll be more regular now & tracking will be easier x

trippingoverrainbows · 21/05/2018 08:36

I don't know why I do this to myself. I am almost 100% sure this is an evap but it came up within 10mins. I am only 9dpo. Am I losing my mind? This is my first cycle after MMC.

@trippingoverrainbows I can see a line, fingers crossed for you.
