Temp dip for me today so now for the week long wait for AF and start again! Get my blood results back Tuesday. @MrsRLM how is your temp this morning? How is everyone else getting on today?

MrsRLM · 15/03/2019 06:38

@Rach1384 yep same here. No AF yet, she's due tomorrow, but I'm sure I'm out for this month. Temp has been dropped for the last 2 days now.

Charlotte9876 · 15/03/2019 08:08

I'm out. AF arrived overnight so I'm onto next cycle. Good luck to everyone else 😊

Peachyx2505 · 15/03/2019 08:29

Bfn here as expected 🙈

Peachyx2505 · 15/03/2019 10:20

@Chips4dinneragain have you tested today xx

Jesspheebs · 15/03/2019 10:22

Woke up with sore throat and headache. Stressing myself out with this waiting game. Symptom spotting like mad yesterday. I've convinced myself my nipples have gone darker but i really don't know. My fiance actually said "put your tits away in trying to watch bake off!" 😂😂

StarlightIntheNight · 15/03/2019 10:29

Today I am 10 days PO (I think!) and I ordered some tests so will try a test today to see...although I am not really hopeful. But then again, you never know as in my past two pregnancies I never had much of any signs. With my first I had a little back ache that felt like period was coming. With my second I was more tired (but had an 11 month old baby so that makes me tired anyway lol).

Chips4dinneragain · 15/03/2019 12:33

Sure did peachy BFN unfortunately, and on a FRER at 12DPO so accepting that this isn't the month and now waiting patiently for AF (due mon). Sorry to see you got a BFN too, when's AF due for you?

On the plus side I still havent started spotting so wondering if the b vitamins are kicking in, I usually start spotting around 8DPO, last month was 10DPO so things are moving in the right direction.

On to cycle 5 I guess......

Peachyx2505 · 15/03/2019 12:40

Ah shucks sorry for your bfn too 😔 but that's good news re the spotting.

AF due Monday as well so will be moving into cycle 3. Think I'm going to try and loose a bit of weight and get a little fitter this month x

StarlightIntheNight · 15/03/2019 13:10

I tested and got a negative...but its still 6 days before my p is due. Why do we all test 10 days PO when most likely tests do not pick it up until p is due? (I know why! bc we can't wait!). But really...what is the percentage it actually picks it up that early?

Peachyx2505 · 15/03/2019 13:46

Countdown to pregnancy website has some useful stats. I'm sure it's like 50/50 at 11dpo so less likely at 10dpo.

Sorry for your bfn too 😔 keeping fingers crossed tho 🤞

Chips4dinneragain · 15/03/2019 15:14

I wish I could hold out till 10DPO starlight I usually start testing from 7DPO Blush

thosethreewords · 15/03/2019 16:22

@Peachyx2505 that's good to know as I was going to test tomorrow at 10DPO before a wedding but I won't bother now! I don't want to make myself feel sad before the celebrations!

ttcAlex · 15/03/2019 16:29

I think the percentage of picking up hcg depends on the test sensitivity. But based on my two previous pregnancies, I had BFPs at 9dpo with both, with a 15 miu test, so thats why I think I'm out this time as tested negative at 10dpo. Plenty of symptoms with my first as well, and with my second - probably had some, but hardly noticed ANY, due to running around after my 1year old. So guess the solution to symptom spotting is: keep busy lol

StarlightIntheNight · 15/03/2019 18:05

Chips4dinneragain, oh I tested plenty previously earlier...but learned its just a waste lol. Plus for some reason I do not feel so hopeful at getting pregnant. I guess because my first two times happened straight away and now it has not, I am wondering if there is a reason...like we are older etc. I just turned 36 so I have a little time left...but wonder if we left it too late!

StarlightIntheNight · 15/03/2019 18:06

And btw - when I say too late...I mean for us...as my youngest will be 6 if we got pregnant now. I do not think having a baby in the late 30s is too late. My sister just had her second and just turned 40. :)

showmethegin · 16/03/2019 10:37

Total BFN this morning, think I am 11dpo, af due on Tuesday. Feel really flat and disappointed Sad

Peachyx2505 · 16/03/2019 10:40

@StarlightIntheNight my DS will be 7 😍 if my bfn turns into a bfp (miracle) then I'd be due 10 days before his birthday 🙈

@showmethegin sorry for your bfn. I also had one yesterday at 11dpo is disheartening but we aren't out until AF shows xx

StarlightIntheNight · 16/03/2019 10:48

My spotting has begun...so I am out. Good luck everyone!

Peachyx2505 · 16/03/2019 10:55

Sorry to hear that @StarlightIntheNight 😔 🤞for your next cycle x

TeapotsLoveYouLots · 16/03/2019 22:38

Tested again today (13dpo) got an evap line in Tesco test and nothing on a cheapie, both 25ml

Moods all over the place, feel like AF is coming any second, due on Tuesday. I know I'm out this month 😞

Newbie21 · 17/03/2019 10:15

@StarlightIntheNight sorry to hear that. I hate spotting. Don't know about you but I just wish that AF would show up and be done with it. Is your spotting in a regular pattern or does it vary month to month?

Since my MCs I now spot and it does lead to false hope of implantation bleeding everytime. Usually my spotting is pinks/brown and light and progressively gets heavier then AF shows about 2 days later. This cycle has been totally random for me - BFN morning of DPO 10 then in evening a bleed - actually red blood when I wiped and a fair amount of it - more than spotting. Since then it's been brown spotting and is very light but is still there I'm DPO 14 today so expecting AF to turn up any second. I know it's coming but I'm wishing so much that it's not. I keep getting tempted to take another test but then I remind myself that this is my new normal and it would be a waste of time, money and emotion.

I'm definitely speaking to doctor about it this cycle. Going to see if I need vit B or anything else to sort this out.

Rach1384 · 17/03/2019 10:42

#Peachyx2505 I’m aiming to lose weight too this month and see if it increases my chances. My temp went back up yest and then dropped again slightly this morn. I’ve absolutely no symptoms at all so just a waiting game now.

Chips4dinneragain · 17/03/2019 12:45

Started spotting yesterday too which is disappointing, although if anyone is interested since I started taking b vitamins (B50 complex from Holland and Barrat) and extra strength Vit C, my spotting has gone from starting at 7/8DPO TO 12DPO.

Catconfusion · 17/03/2019 13:12

Unfortunately mine didn't stick. I had strong pregnancy symptoms and good line progression during the week. Due to very painful cramping over the weekend I tested today and got a very very faint positive on FRER compared to the ones last week. I'm just waiting for the bleeding now. I'm really sad as its my second loss in a row after my MMC last month.

Good luck everyone! XX
