Hi ladies, this weekend was test day for a lot of us. My partners AF is officially a day late, which never usually happens. Seems there is a few of us in the no mans land of TTC, no AF no BFP. How annoying (to put it mildly) We are like you as well, just hurry up and come AF cause this waiting past two weeks absolutely sucks!
Her temperature dipped on Friday but last two days has been going up. I don't know what that means but I thought prior to AF Your temp drops that's when you know it's starting?

SenoraSurf · 28/10/2018 21:31

@Dosmamas we were cycle buddies but AF got me today ļæ¼ on to cycle 2 for me! Fingers crossed for you both xxx

Sric1994 · 28/10/2018 22:33

Af has arrived :( Ready for the November bus now.

Chloo22 · 28/10/2018 22:54

@Sric1994 sorry to hear your AF arrived!.. :( don’t give up keep trying!

Abzi91 · 28/10/2018 22:55

Sorry to hear to all whose AF arrived :( ā¤ļø

To those still waiting or AF is late, hope it's positive news! šŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø @Dosmamas @Chloo22 @keaps

@Rightnow1245 sorry to hear you got a BFN, but don't let it get you down. As you said, you got a late positive with your DS and fingers crossed it's the same this time round šŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø

Day 4 of AF for me - waiting for it to hurry up and finish so I can start cycle 2!! Been craving chocolate all day and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere for training 😫

Chloo22 · 28/10/2018 22:58

@Abzi91, thank you! I’m staying positive. Never had yellowish tint of CM trying to stay positive but not in a way I feel disappointed. Just someon new ive experiences.
How long are does you AF usually last.

Sric1994 · 28/10/2018 23:05

Thanks @Chloo22 this was out first month of trying so it’s still early days. I’ve decided not to use OPKS this month because I became obsessive, it stressed me out which probably won’t have helped! Haha. When is AF due? Since coming off the pill mine have only lasted around 3 days x

Chloo22 · 28/10/2018 23:09

@Sric1994, My period is 7 days late today. I’ve had some usual CM for me. I tested at 3 days late and got BFN. I’m just waiting for AF to show if I haven’t got AF by Wednesday next week I will text again. I’m a but uncertain of my ovulation, so :/ I’m in the unknown at the moment.

Cloclopops · 29/10/2018 01:02

@decgal88 how are you getting on with the OPK? I had my first positive one today!
@chloo22 you obviously have amazing self control šŸ˜‚ I'd have taken about 20 tests by now if AF was 7 days late
Fingers and toes crossed for all of you waiting on the BFP! šŸ™

Chloo22 · 29/10/2018 01:27

@cloclopops, I just want to make sure that when I do test it’s at the right time.

Rightnow1245 · 29/10/2018 08:27

chloo ok I will try and hold off until then too.. you’ve been so good! I’ve tested most days lol regarding the CM I have no idea but I think before AF Cm usually drys up!

sric SenoraSurf sorry to hear about AF šŸ’ hopefully next month will bring you more luck 😊

dosmamas I know it’s so annoying! There is a few of us in limbo! It’s defo good that her temp hasn’t dropped because that is a sign AF is coming.. I don’t know much about temping but I do know that lol šŸ˜‚
When will your partner test again?

Thanks abz chocolate sounds good! Hopefully you can get your hands on some!! I always eat chocolate when AF is here.. seems to help šŸ™Œ how long are you away for?

So today is cd37 with no sign of AF (I don’t normally get signs, so no surprise lol) I am 14dpo but 4 days late.. I could just be having a longer LP this month so maybe that’s why I’m getting a bfn but no AF.. They say most people’s LP is 14 days and no more than 16 so the next few days I’ll know either way 😊 This morning I left really sick before having breakfast but know I feel ok šŸ‘ I have stopped getting the cramps but still have lots of CM.. to be honest I never really payed attention to my CM so it could be normal šŸ¤”

How is everyone today? X

pinkstar01 · 29/10/2018 10:16

@Rightnow1245 it's hopefully that AF still hasn't arrived...I hope you find out either way soon!

So I tested with an FRER this morning and a huge BFN not even a hint of a line. AF is supposedly due between 3-5 days so I'm very doubtful now even though I was so so convinced! I had so many symptoms that I had this cycle which I havnt had all year since we started ttc. With my son I didn't get a BFP until the day before my period was due so I'm grasping on to that for some hope but I'm quite sure I'm out this cycle :(

Chloo22 · 29/10/2018 13:30

@pinkstar01 don’t cancel yourself out yet! HCG levels might not be high enough, they have to be higher than 5 to even start detecting pregnancy on home pregnancy tests..

Decgal88 · 29/10/2018 15:44

Hello ladies I hope you all had a good weekend! @Cloclopops i started using the opk today! i did one about 20 mins ago im currently on cd 14 since coming off the implant in July i have had 2 30 day cycles last month was 27 days so hard to pin point my ov day! i just need some advice as its my first time using them so i think i can see a faint line? whats your advice on all your experiences? is it a faint positive or negative??

Hi ladies,
Freaking out now. Info: cd27, due tomorrow-ish, 13dpo. Started getting a light bleed today, thinking it doesn't look like my normal day 1 AF as that's normally heavy. Bleed has gone a brownish colour and still light. Cramping like mad, feels like AF. Had a BFN at 7dpo (I know, too early) and again at 10 door, not tested since. Realistically do we think this is AF just stringing it out or could it be implantation bleeding? Not sure..Confused

Rightnow1245 · 29/10/2018 16:27

pink Thanks me too šŸ˜ŠšŸ¤žšŸ½ You still have lots of time to get a BFP 😊FX for you

decgal Defo see a line but sorry it’s a negative! once it goes a little darker test a little more frequently! The line has to be as dark as the control line or darker.. maybe a few more days yet but test again later before bed 😊

sam sounds positive to me! That could be implantation bleeding as implantation can happen as late as 12dpo 😊 maybe wait a few days to test? Like Wednesday 😊

Thank you @Rightnow1245 does it look like ovulation is coming up then? hoping i havent already ovulated but i guess its unlikely as im on cd 14?xx

Fertilitypoddy · 29/10/2018 17:13

Hey All, this is my first post here and I hope it's useful. I make a weekly podcast all about fertility issues called The Fertility Podcast speaking to people sharing their stories as well as experts from around the world. I've just shared an episode today from an amazing lady who talks about the incredible support she got from the forums she found within Mumsnet so I wanted to share the link here bit.ly/2EOdFrC I had successful treatment for my little boy in 2014 and have been making this poddy ever since. If it helps you feel less alone, like these awesome forums do, then I've achieved my mission - Natalie

Rightnow1245 · 29/10/2018 20:40

When did you start testing today? decgal
It could be soon but mine where like that for a few day! Maybe do one before bed and if it’s getting darker it’s a good sign 😊

Chloo22 · 29/10/2018 21:45

Update- still no AF, but lots of yellowish CM still!. I’ve got very tender boobs today also!. I am 8 days late and I’m going to test in the morning. With my first good wee! WISH ME LUCK!
I will update as soon as I get a result.

Rightnow1245 · 29/10/2018 22:13

chloo Good luck! Let us know as soon as you know! That’s good you still have symptoms 😊 mine are very similar to yours 😊 I think I’m going to wait until Friday now

Hey dearies. I did a test this morning and it's a BFN. Really sad. AF due tmrrw. I guess i am for November now. And my boobs are so sore but I guess it's ugly AF. @chloo22 good luck to you. Keep us posted x.

samsward87 · 30/10/2018 07:16

AHH pants, AF arrived last night. Oh well, just keep popping the clomid and move on to next month. This is never ending. Good luck ladies waiting for your BFPs!

Decgal88 · 30/10/2018 07:45
