Hi Ladies!
Hope I can join too!
Think I'm on cycle 3 now! Still waiting for that BFP. So nice to read positive results from others going through the same thing.
I bought some ovulation cheapies from eBay for this month hoping to see if I have got my dates right because so far I've had no luck!

LauraPalmersBodybag · 01/11/2018 15:55

@carastarchild @anitagreen and @MrsNK so sorry. It’s rubbish being out and the hope is gone, though I maybe there’s some peace of mind to be found not guessing anymore. Pour yourselves some Wine and hope the next cycle is the one.

For what it’s worth, I’m all over the shop. BFN yesterday (10 dpo) followed by brown spotting which made me suddenly hopeful again. Last night though, I wiped and there was some red blood. Then more brown spotting today. My hope’s gone, as I think this is just AF messing with my head, and not implantation bleeding. Anyway, I’ll test Sunday if not properly here, but I doubt I’ll get that far. No idea why my usually regular period is 5 days early?

@BLS1983 holding out hope for you though! Fx

And welcome @MrsLBear 👋🏻

MrsNK · 01/11/2018 16:31

@LauraPalmersBodybag sorry to hear you’re having the same thing. TTC must mess up our cycle somehow as I’ve never had spotting days before AF is due before. Naturally we hope it’s implantation but I read online it’s actually rare. Just wish proper AF would come now so I can write this cycle off completely and start the next. All the while AF isn’t in full flow, I’m clinging on to a glimmer of home but I’m sure the BFN today at 12dpo means I’m out :(

Fingers crossed for you xx

MrsNK · 01/11/2018 16:32

*hope not Home! 😂

LondonKez · 01/11/2018 17:50

Sorry to hear so many are having a confusing and just all round rubbish week. TTC is hard, stressful and does strange things to our bodies (and heads!). Sending you all a big glass of wine, some chocolate and a virtual hug. Hope there's some good news soon 💖💖💖

BLS1983 · 01/11/2018 17:55

@LauraPalmersBodybag that sounds very much like implantation spotting. Brown, red, few days before af is due. I hope this is the case for you. Fingers crossed.

TMI coming up but I am due af in 6 days I think on day 37 and today I had a glob if something snot like. Any ideas on that? Lol xx

BLS1983 · 01/11/2018 17:56

@Carastarchild thanks lovely 😘

LondonKez · 01/11/2018 18:00

I think a blob of snot like mucus sounds promising @BLS1983! Fx for you! x
Hope your spotting turns into you bfp too @LauraPalmersBodybag x

ChikiTIKI · 01/11/2018 18:30

Sorry to hear about the BFNs in the group. It's not over til the red lady sings though! Keeping my fingers crossed for you xxxx

LauraPalmersBodybag · 01/11/2018 18:43

Hi ladies and thank you! I’m 99% sure my period has started since this afternoon, albeit a little lighter and earlier than usual.

Standing in solidarity with you @MrsNK!

@BLS1983 that does sound positive...here’s hoping! Also, tmi probably not poss here Grin

Bummed out but putting my lovely dd to bed so there’s some perspective there.

Hope you all have a nice evening x

BLS1983 · 02/11/2018 00:05

Thanks ladies. Do they say that's a positive then? Oooo 🤞. I definitely haven't dried up after ovulation x

Carastarchild · 02/11/2018 06:08

Just peed...no sign of AF. I will buy a FRER if AF doesn't arrive during the day.

Fx for you all... heading back to sleep for an hour before I have to get up for work.

That's good news @Carastarchild hope your BFP is imminent!!

Whisky2014 · 02/11/2018 07:24

Just took my temp ..36.4 orally, 36 under arm and 35.9 in ear. So does temp drop after ovulation or just before?

Also feeling sillyy because this is our first time trying and we used normal lube which I now know can restrict movement of sperm :(

BLS1983 · 02/11/2018 07:32

@Carastarchild fx for you. Keep us updated :-) x

LondonKez · 02/11/2018 10:08

Eek! Fx @carastarchild! 🤞🏼💖🤞🏼💖

@whisky2014 temp should rise after ovulation and stay above your cover line for your entire LP. If AF is on her way then your temp will drop to below your cover line as a new cycle starts. If BFP, temp will stay elevated. If you're tracking bbt then make sure you do it at exactly the same time every day before getting out of bed for the most accurate reading. I've only been doing it for 3 cycles, so there are probably lots of other points that I've missed! Hope that helps x

ChikiTIKI · 02/11/2018 18:33

14 days until my period is due... Test date... My birthday. Feel like I'm definitely past ovulation but going to keep dtd just incase. Wishing you all a good weekend. Will we get any BFPs this weekend? :) xxxxxx

PineappleC · 02/11/2018 18:40

Hi ladies, hope it's okay to join too 🤗

TTC #1, cycle 1, about 8dpo. No idea when AF/BFP due as have been on the pill for a few years, but cd22 today. At the moment I'm cramping quite a bit and feel like I want to cry and punch someone all at the same time, so think it's quite likely that AF is due imminently 😂😭 No spotting yet though so FX!!

FX to everyone else too! Xx

LondonKez · 02/11/2018 19:39

Ah! I hope you get a lovely birthday present @ChikiTIKI 💖

Welcome @PineappleC! My ovulation and af symptoms are pretty similar! Sending you lots of baby dust for your journey x

Have a great weekend ladies x

ChikiTIKI · 02/11/2018 19:50

Thanks @LondonKez , hi @PineappleC ! Xxx

LauraPalmersBodybag · 03/11/2018 00:05

Hi @carastarchild any news on a test yet?

Good luck @chikiTIKI, hoping for the best birthday present 🤞🏻

Welcome @pinappleC 🤞🏻 for you too

Just a tiny still confused update from me...AF still not here. The bleeding went from brown spots to wiping red, and I’ve been wearing panty liners expecting it to kick off, but now nothing. POAS (but a cheap one, and in the evening) and BFN, but AF not due till Sunday so maybe still too early if implantation took a while. Have no idea... convinced I’m not pg, but then so confused. I’m going loopy.

ChikiTIKI · 03/11/2018 08:20

Sorry you're in limbo @LauraPalmersBodybag hopefully you get an answer, and a BFP soon xxxx

Whisky2014 · 03/11/2018 08:34

I have the egg white goop. Is that an indication I'm about to ovulate or that I already have?

Whisky2014 · 03/11/2018 09:16

In so confused. I took an opk which was negative but i have the egg white discharge.

Carastarchild · 03/11/2018 10:22

AF arrived this morning 😑 I just feel tired today from it all. I knew to be honest when I kept getting BFN's that I wasn't pregnant. At least today I get to rest and recharge, and begin again.

I will update the stats and add anyone new to the list. Will catch up with all you lovely ladies once I get to sit down
