@Crossfitgirl hope this helps xx

It's just about getting to know the feel of it and position of it. We've not been doing it long enough long enough to be able to feel a massive difference yet, but checking Cm is a start I think xx

@Crossfitgirl i guess should've gotten a degree in chemistry had I known there's a horde of crazed women waiting to pee on sticks as much as animals marking their territory. 🤣🤣🤣

Morning ladies. I think it's safe to say I'm out.

Just done an FRER and that's negative right?

I thought I saw something but I'm probably just imagine it. 😔
I'm sure with being 5 days late and it being such a sensitive test it would be pretty strong if it was there😒 ..

I think if no AF by Friday I'll call the Docs on Monday.

@KeltiBug that is a negative, yes, I'm sorry 😞. With AF I think if you're more than two weeks late is when you need to worry. Hopefully either bfp or AF happen for you soon.

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 06:50

Morning @KeltiBug that's exactly what my FRER looked like too 😩 I'd say wait until you're a week late (or more) do another test and then visit the gp if AF doesn't turn up. Are you temping? My temp still hasn't dropped x

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 07:06

Bfn for me too 😢 not even a squinter of a line on a frer.
Temp is still high but it is 12dpo so I don't think there is a chance now as it would def show something by now.
Def feels like AF will come but it will prob be tomorrow. 😩

Hi everyone, This is is my first post on here so bare with me as I need to vent TMI warning!!!!( end of my tether TTC!). So my partner and I are both serving so can be difficult to be in the same place . On August the 10th I got a peak ovulation on CB Digi and also the 11th my partner came home early the 11th and we BD twice that day and then every day up untill the 26th August (minus the 24 we were tired !). So on 28th I started getting spotting only when wiping and a big clump of thick dark brown almost black thick discharge and then nothing other .... ( Point to note I have been hpt testing since 21st August 🤦). All bfn and also after the spotting . I didn't class the spotting as AF as there was no blood or flow and definetly wasn't my normal ! . So come my next due AF the 21st I had a clear bit of mucus then nothing (usually I have a bit of brown then few hours later I bleed for five days) . So after the clear mucus I thought hmmm good sign maybe ... Nope come the 22nd I start brown spotting and thought you she is coming ! But no nothing ! Yesterday I got some really dark brown almost black thumb nail size clot and also some thick thick snotty mucus when I wiped with some light pink in it ! So I have booked an appointment with a gyno as I am so stressed with it ! . Now this morning nothing on my pad and my temp was 36.73 this morning . Also I tested for ovulation this month and I peaked the 7th then again the 14th ( I don't see even how that is possible)! This morning I tested with fmu and still BFN I don't even know if I am possibly pregnant or my body is playing a game with me ! I need some advice or success stories of really late bfp or anything similar to my situation as I have traveled and can't find anything 😫. Please any advice or anything would be grateful I see the nurse today so hopefully I'll find out what the hell is going on . ( Sorry for the long post ) x

KeltiBug · 25/09/2018 07:20

Yeah I think I'm just going to wait it out and if nothing by Friday I'll make a doctors appointment.
My heads all over the place at the moment. I'm stressing myself out.

No I don't temp, I wouldn't even know where to start. 😂

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 07:33

@FlapJackered @cupcakesandglitter sorry guys 😂 mine was a bfn so. And I've got some cramps so AFS is on her way. Sorry can't be positive no more. So much going on with me my family all sorts. X

Sorry for the bfn ladies @FlapJackered**@cupcakesandglitter@KeltiBug

@Ronetta28 welcome! i think if I was like that I defo think I'm pregnant too Hun. Maybe talk to your doctor, they might do blood tests etc? Xx

@Delilah7 we're here if you need to vent. X

BabySquid · 25/09/2018 07:37

@Ronetta28 when you say you both serve... do you travel a lot? If so this can mess with your cycles quite a lot... I didn't realise till I came back from my honeymoon to Thailand and barely had a period, but felt like I ovulated twice.
Speak to the dr though and see what they say.

FivexFive · 25/09/2018 07:43

Hi ladies, what a night! I'm out, af arrived just before bee. Am actually ok, feeling better just for knowing. Cycle day 1 for me today, a new start. Sorry to everyone who got bfn. Maybe October will be our month? Totally off topic, we took in a lost/stray(?) kitten from the cold last night! Hoping she's chipped, as our resident big boy cat doesn't look impressed!! Xx

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 07:45

@ValidUser thanks Hun. Just too much going on. :( it's all abit stressful at the moment. X

@FivexFive oh I'm sorry Hun. I reckon I'll be with you this month too! awww good lady taking in a cat! X x

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 08:51

Ahh @FlapJackered 😩😩 you're not out till she shows so try and stay positive xx

I still feel like AF is coming. Wasted so many pads waiting for it to come 😩

Hi @Ronetta28 😊 sorry I have no advice, let us know what the nurse says, hope it gets sorted xx

What valid said @Delilah7, we're here for you xxx

Ah sorry @FivexFive, onwards to the next cycle though!! Xx

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 09:00

@cupcakesandglitter I just don't know what to do. 😭
My brother and mum had a row two days ago. He called her a joke said she doesn't care about the grandkids ( which she does so so much ). He said that what my sister says about her is true. Played the card of ' you have a grandson that's ill' he's not unwell. He has special needs and he's fine. Doing things people never thought he would. My mum and dad have not had a break for three years. My dad's mum died, 2015, my auntie died 2016, my mums mum died 2017, and now my grandad terminally unwell, I had a miscarriage and now this with dad's heart. I want to rip both their heads off.

@cupcakesandglitter it's really hit me badly this morning, just feel so sad 😭 I think I would have a line by 12dpo if it was possible.

I just feel like ttc is like playing the lottery, bfn's just feel so inevitable now and bfps just feel like an unachievable dream. I can't see it ever happening for me and I don't get how it's so easy for some people.
Sorry, rant over. 😢

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 09:07

@Delilah7 poor you and your Mum.
Have you talked to them and told them to wind their necks in? Or would they not respond well to that?

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:08

@flapjackered @cupcakesandglitter I’ve still not had a temp drop either which isn’t normal for me at this point. Fed up this month as feel like my body is playing tricks xx

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:08

@delilah7 can you speak to your brother and tell him to give them a break? x

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 09:09

@Delilah7 oh god, tensions make family say stupid things and act like little children. Keep a level head on and be there for your parents right now - your brother needs to stop being a selfish arse and cut them some slack x

@FlapJackered eurgh I hear that 😩 I'm 15dpo I think today (CD33) and literally nothing at all. OPKs aren't getting darker either. It's so difficult to stay positive when we're trying to do everything right and nothing at all!! I'm really not helping but I'm struggling to stay positive too 😩 x

cupcakesandglitter · 25/09/2018 09:10

@sunshine1987 yes!! It's like a torture game isn't it. So annoying that I've had no problems, but as soon as I TTC it decides to fuck up on me!!

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:11

@ronetta28 I would book a doctors appointment and try and work out what’s happening. The OPK’s will only show when your body is gearing up to ovulate, sometimes you can get a surge and no egg is released so your body tries again. Hence two positives. The only way to see if you are ovulating is by your temperature xx

sunshine1987 · 25/09/2018 09:14

@cupcakesandglitter first month I just want AF to arrive as I know I’m not pregnant so just want to get on with actively doing something x

FlapJackered · 25/09/2018 09:18

@sunshine1987 @cupcakesandglitter it's so depressing isn't it. I just want AF to come now so I have force myself into focusing/being positive for the next cycle.
Right now I want a big Gin and Tonic and chocolate but it's only 9am so I might need to wait a few hours.

Delilah7 · 25/09/2018 09:24

@FlapJackered they haven't bothered with me either so I haven't spoken to either of them. They wouldn't like it. They'd call me favourite child. As usual 😂 xx

@sunshine1987 I think I will do it to them both when they actually talk to me haha xx

@cupcakesandglitter exactly. I'm sure nothing will happen to dad but if it did my god would they be in for a shock. They've both forget their real families. Xx

If I'm honest I'm half excited to see if AF comes on 28 day's like it normally would... xx
