TWW begins...stop me POAS every day!

Anybody else? I'm on CD16, pretty sure I ovulated over the past day or two, now for the long frustrating wait to POAS! Why is it so hard to resist for 14 measly days?!

We are TTC #2 and this is our first cycle of trying.

@Fae1989 I think I might have to - although I'm unsure they'd take me seriously 😩 last cycle was 23 days, the most pain I have ever had and so I called them. Doctor just told me to monitor it for a few months, and that having sex may have caused it......... yes... I am TTC.... didn't go very well, I'm scared they'll palm me off as I've only been trying for two cycles now. Problem is I was regular before I started TTC so I don't know what's going on xx

Fae1989 · 02/10/2018 18:34

@cupcakesandglitter - you know your body and yourself and if you’re concerned then i’d go back. It might be something simple like you’re having an off cycle (I’ve read that the odd disrupted cycle is normal). Is there another GP you can see? Don’t let them palm you off, they should take concerns seriously. Sending you a hug x

Curly I am 14 dpo today, and I had a tiny bit of brown spotting this morning, and then nothing for the rest of the day. Just waiting now to see what happens. Time always does tell. Fx this cycle will be a lucky one for you.

Cupcakes how many dpo's are you? Fx it's just implantation spotting.

Chiki I just try to focus on the joy a new baby would bring to our family. I had a tramautic birth with my DS, so I understand where you are coming from. Fx next week will bring you a BFP.

Carastarchild · 02/10/2018 19:27

Flossy great to hear from you! Moving house isn't easy, but it will be worth if in the end. How are you feeling.

Twittle Fx AF stays away and you get a BFP! 🤗

London I didn't temp this month as I sometimes have to get up earlier to drop my DH to work. Also, I tend to forget and jump out of the bed. I used the monitor this month, and I monitor my cervical mucus as well.

Lottie I am glad AF is nearly gone and you get another chance to get pregnant.

Fae1989 · 02/10/2018 19:32

@carastarchild - thank you lovely. Hope you’re ok? X

ChikiTIKI · 02/10/2018 19:51

Thanks @Carastarchild. I have been feeling so calm for the last week even though my car was stolen. I am sure this is god's work in my life! Quite stressful at work this week just trying to stay as calm as possible I feel I need this for my physical and mental health. Good to hear you just have light spotting. Are you planning to do another test soon? Xxx

cupcakesandglitter · 02/10/2018 20:59

@Carastarchild I ovulated on the 9th September so it's waaaaay to late to be IB :(

@Fae1989 yeah that's true - if last cycle was normal I'd count this as an off one but I don't think it is. If it doesn't ease up then I'll call the doctor on Friday. Out with DH for dinner to take my mind off it, so I'll check the situ when I'm home! Xx

Carastarchild · 02/10/2018 21:02

Fae and Chiki I will test in the morning if AF doesn't arrive. I didn't test today, as I had only tested the day before. I keep feeling gushes, but when I check there isn't anything there.

Chiki it was first day back to work after my holidays. I had to make sure everything was completed and done correctly. Pretty stressful, but I totally blocked the stress and got on with it. I just said I am not doing this to myself.

Carastarchild · 02/10/2018 21:06

Cupcakes sorry to hear that. Enjoy your meal and time with your DH. Take care of yourself 💜

itinkthereforeima · 02/10/2018 21:15

I'm refusing to buy any sticks until period due day this time!

cupcakesandglitter · 02/10/2018 21:48

@Carastarchild thankyou sweet ❤️ I've just got back and checked (sorry everyone for the TMI updates) but it's a little more browny. Still nothing major!

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 06:10

Morning ladies,

Hope everyone’s ok.

Good luck to those testing today.

AF two days late and still no sign. BFN again this morning.

MummytoA20 · 03/10/2018 06:25

@Fae1989 Hi Hun, it's so frustrating that you're getting negatives!

That is exactly what happened with my first. I ovulated really late in my cycle and I didn't get a positive until several days after AF was due.

My friend recommended that I got one of those pregnancy test checker apps and when I did and inverted the colours it showed that there was a really faint positive. Maybe worth a try?

Good luck to everyone ❤️

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 06:29

@MummytoA20 - thank you lovely. I’ve just tried it and there’s definitely nothing there 🙁. I’m convinced I’m not pregnant and AF is just dawdling along (which is further delaying things!) at least if she shows up I can start again.

How are you today?

Carastarchild · 03/10/2018 09:30

Fae Sorry you got another BFN 😔 They are truly painful.

Well I tested this morning... BFN....two hours later AF arrived...well hello again CD 1 😔 Holding onto hope 🙏

TwittleBee · 03/10/2018 09:33

Another BFN for me on a FRER, AF due tomorrow. So annoyed at myself because I said I wouldnt buy anymore FRERs too.

Carastarchild sorry AF has showed up. FX for this cycle hun

Carastarchild · 03/10/2018 11:41

Twittle sorry to hear that. Fx for the morning 💜

Cupcakes how are you. Brown bleed is usually old bleed.

cupcakesandglitter · 03/10/2018 12:58

Hey @Carastarchild I'm okay thankyou - I'm so light that if I wasn't to change, I think I'd only fill one pad at most per day. (Usually do around one an hour at least). More brown than red but I'm just going to count it as AF because I can't deal with being in limbo 😂
How are you? Xx

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 13:06

@Carastarchild - hello lovely. Sorry to hear that :( it's so annoying when you test and then she shows up so soon! I have everything crossed for you for next month!!

@Twittlebee - it's really hard not to buy them, I totally feel your pain. Fingers crossed she doesn't show up for you! Let us know how you get on.

Hope you're both ok?

How is everyone else today?

Nothing to report from me. AF seems to be taking a vacation!

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 13:52

Ps has anyone had (tmi sorry) creamy yellow/white cm (so sorry that’s gross) after a missed period? Getting quite a bit and I’ve no idea what’s going on?!

cupcakesandglitter · 03/10/2018 14:11

@Fae1989 me!!! Had TONNES of it before 'AF' came. I was 100% sure it wasn't an infection though!

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 14:21

@cupcakes - I am sure it’s not infection too. :( that af is probably on the way though!!

Carastarchild · 03/10/2018 18:14

Fae and cupcakes I am okay. I am disappointed, but what can I do but keep moving forward.

Carastarchild · 03/10/2018 18:26

cupcakes above should read brown blood is usually old blood....auto predictive text at it again....🙈

Fae1989 · 03/10/2018 18:28

@carastarchild - sending you a big ol hug xx
