anyone waiting for AF this week (w.b. 21/10)

[kwazycupcakes]

Hi everyone 🙂

I thought I would start a thread for everyone that is due AF this week, if anyone would like to join?

I am 29 and have been TTC #1 for 10 months with no hint of a BFP. I have been tracking my BBT for the last 6 months and always have a 13 day luteal phase, with AF appearing on the 14th day after OV. Yesterday was day 14 and nothing sign of AF yet. Temperature hasn't dipped yet either. Too scared to test as i'm fed up of seeing BFN 😣

Scared that just by making this thread I am jynxing it and AF will arrive, so please keep me company 🙂 would love to hear from and support others! Baby dust to everyone, this journey is so hard 💐

@Lizziedu49 My longest was about 50 days but that was back in Feb after just coming off the pill. I had an early miscarriage in August so i'm not sure if that is still playing a roll in everything. TMI but my nipples are killing me atm so AF turning up to stop that would be a relief!

AF still not arrived and I’m CD 29, I usually get AF exactly 12 days after ovulation and cycles are 28 days so should have come by now but I didn’t properly track this month as was trying to be relaxed. I’m sure I ovulated about 14 days ago though! Really want to test now. Is it better to wait until tomorrow morning to test or should I try one when I get home from work today?

@kwazycupcakes can you post your chart? I love a good chart nosey.

I'm excited for you to test. I think if af hasn't come by tomorrow morning I'll test.

@Banoffeepie91 @Bananaloaf88 test with me tomorrow!!!

@Lizziedu49 i'm not testing again until Saturday I think. But I will wait here to hear & post my update!

Haha thankyou @Lizziedu49 i really hope it is our month 🤞

@Chefwifelife Yeah sure, here you go :) I missed a few days because I went on holiday and tried not to obsess over TTC. want to share yours too?

@Banoffeepie91 Sounds like you are in a similar situation to me 🙂 fingers crossed for you 🤞 Let us know how you get on if you decide to test tonight!

Tested just now and BFN. I know it’s meant to be stronger in the morning though so might wait a few more days and then test Saturday morning. No idea what is going on with my body!

@Chefwifelife @kwazycupcakes here is my chart I use natural cycles which looks a bit different. Their chart charts don’t show positive OPKs.

I really hope the cramps are a good sign...

@kwazycupcakes your charts looking good!

@Macbless I've never seen those charts before. When is af due?

Here's my ff chart and Ovusense one.

Hi all, jumping on the band wagon too. AF due on Sunday, took a test 9dpo and 10dpo bfn but have a speck of blood today thinking possible IB (11dpo). Also have the worse heart burn. Gonna hold off testing to Sunday at least I think. So hard though 😭 those Bfn have me thinking I'm probably out this month.

I've had pink spotting today which I get every now and again before AF, that combined with my BFN this morning makes me almost certainly out.
Just want AF to arrive now so I can crack on with the next cycle!

Those temp charts look promising ladies, fingers crossed!

@toteswingingit same here. The waiting game is driving me mad 😂🙁

Can i join?? I am 29 and this is our 10th month of trying. Im due my period tomorrow but tested today as have really sore boobs and felt sick all week. I got a postive result but feel like my time of the month is going to appear at any minute. Had a miscarriage last year so am really neevous and paranoid.

Forgot to add a picture of test xx

Congratulations 🥳 @lynds4536

I used natural cycles as contraception for a year before TTC. I’m not sure if I’d recommend it. It’s £40 a year. But now there is over 18 months of data to help with predicting ovulation. That said it didn’t say I’d ovulated on CD14 until about CD19 so we did extra DTD, even tho I had a positive OPK on 13th. I’m sticking with it as it’s got so much data on it now but if I was starting again I’d got for a free one! @Chefwifelife how do you find ovusense? Xx

@Chefwifelife sorry meant to say.... my AF is due Saturday. But cycle ranges from 25-28 days so I’ll only test if I’ve not started by Monday/Tuesday.

Congrats @Lynds4536 😄🥳

AF is due today but no signs yet. I took an IC this morning and the very faintest of lines came up, fainter than the one the previous day, so I'm guessing we're out this month

Just done a FRER and it's a BFN, so looks like it was evap lines on the ICs ☹️

My temp has dipped this morning (but still above coverline), bfn on IC. Sorry @Crazymummyto3 for your rubbish bfn too. Is anyone testing to give us some good news?

BFN for me as well unfortunately. Really annoyed because I didn’t track this month to try and be relaxed but looks like I predicted ovulation wrong so we’ll have been DTD at the wrong time this month. Back to OPKs and bbt tracking when AF finally turns up I think!

Sorry to hear about your BFN @Crazymummyto3 @Chefwifelife @Banoffeepie91 💐

I did an IC late last night, BFN. Temp drop and AF has arrived this morning. Gutted, not sure what my body is doing. Onto cycle 11. Today is going to be a hard day to get through.

😞😞😞

Good luck to everyone still waiting for AF, fingers crossed for you 🤞

Sorry to hear about all the BFNs this morning!

AF still hasn't shown for me, but by god am I crampy! Constant since yesterday, just want it to turn up now!

Good luck for next cycle everyone and good luck to those still waiting!

You’re not out until AF starts. Hope it stays away for you @Crazymummyto3 @Chefwifelife @banoffeepie91.
Having said that I’m pretty sure AF is it’s way for me 😬
