Despite my TTC last month, it resulted in my AF arriving Christmas Day (deep joy!) it's round 2 this month! I'm due to ovulate on Monday (6th) so anyone else wanna join me, with the overthinking, being excessively paranoid, mystery pregnancy signs and taking PT's when you know you shouldn't be! 🤣🤣
Feel free to jump on the crazy train with me!

Well ladies I've got some cramps like AF brewing so thinking I'll be out this month but I am going to try and see the positive side.....I've been dieting since last Monday and lost 8lbs so I want to shift a bit more weight and get my body ready ☺️

Ginge35 · 17/01/2020 21:42

@newmum2020 that's naff that you think you're out this month, but well done on the weight loss! 👍🏻 that's awesome!
I've still got the same symptoms that I've had the last few days, but today I feel like I could cry!
I'm still convinced I'm out this month and I think the emotions are pre-empted despair for when my AF turns up next week! 😬😬😬

Thanks @Ginge35 i have about another stone to lose. I put on some weight after miscarriage then more at Xmas 🙄so I feel like my body is maybe just needing a wee bit more time

cherrybomb86 · 17/01/2020 22:50

Hi all, sorry about those feeling like AF is on the way and BFN. Today I've started getting lower back pain and I think some thrush coming too! What a treat...been so stressed with work recently (I'm a mental health nurse) so these symptoms are probably a fine mixture of stress and AF looming.
Fingers crossed for you all x

BecauseReasons · 18/01/2020 05:36

Urgh, I've been up all night with a vomiting bug, charmingly passed on by my little girl. Problem is, it has really made me panic about the possibility of a second pregnancy. I had forgotten how much I loathe this feeling! I don't really want to feel this way for weeks again Sad

DustyDiva · 18/01/2020 11:29

Morning
So I have woken up with a sore throat and tests arrived.... BFN! So that was a false positive I got on the one I did last weekend!!! Just goes to show how much of a bitch PCOS is. Means I haven't ovulated at all this month, I must have been picking up on the sensation of cysts developing. Hope everyone else has a better day than me xxxxxx

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 11:34

@BecauseReasons that sucks! I hope you feel better soon!
I feel fine today. Boobs still sore but CM has really died off, which is a sign AF is on its way 😭😭😭
Still got a crappy cold! Currently sounding like a Darlic with my voice though which is funny! 😂😂😂
I've decided I'm not even going to bother with testing, as I can tell now with how my body is today that I'm out for this month!
Fingers crossed a few of you are testing this weekend and a few BFP's will be popping up! Excited for all of you!
Baby dust ladies! ❤️

AF here today Confused

Baby dust to you all and hopefully we'll see lots of positives on this thread soon! Xxx

Gastonimo · 18/01/2020 12:27

Sorry to hear that @DustyDiva. I didn't think you could even get false positives.
Hoping everyone's feeling ok this weekend x

BecauseReasons · 18/01/2020 12:35

I didn't think you could even get false positives

Generally speaking, you can't, though some medical conditions can cause it. Might have been a chemical.

BecauseReasons · 18/01/2020 12:37

Anyway, sorry to hear that @DustyDiva. And thanks @Ginge35. I've now been nauseated for about twelve hours and it's getting really old!

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 13:22

@dustydiva I've only just see your post! That sucks you got a BFN! I was convinced it was going to be good news for you!
Anyone else testing this weekend? ❤️❤️

Goldie0109 · 18/01/2020 13:57

AF is due tomorrow for me. No pregnancy symptoms though feels just like a normal month so I think I'm out. I track my BBT and did get a dip 7 DPO which got me hoping it could be an implantation dip but think it can happen anytime really. Temp still high, normally dips the day before AF so perhaps it will be a day late. Not testing until at least Monday if AF doesn't show up... cycle 4 of TTC for me - I had no idea it sent you so loopy! Grin

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 14:47

Soooooooo I cracked and just took a PT.
BFN!!!!! 10DPO and AF due anytime between Monday & Wednesday, given I ovulated two days late.
To say I'm devastated is an under statement! I knew I was out anyway, but I think you know how I feel when you test anyway, with that small glimmer of hope, that maybe, just maybe it will be a BFP.
My weekend is ruined 😭😭😭😭😭😭

OP posts:
Wiggleyfingers · 18/01/2020 15:21

Oh no!!! I'm so sorry @Ginge35. Although you know you're not out yet, it is still early days.
I also caved and took a FRER at 4am this morning which was bfn. Since then have taken two ic which have shown faint bfp so no idea what is going on.
Why do we do this to ourselves? 😭

DustyDiva · 18/01/2020 15:44

@Ginge35 oh no!!! Hang in there 10dpo is early, test again day in a few days xxxxxx sending hugs xxxx

newmum2020 · 18/01/2020 16:16

@Ginge35 sorry 😢i nearly caved this morning but I'm glad I didn't or I would be feeling just the same right now. My gut just says it's a no this month. On the plus side we are all still on this crazy train together 😘

ablisha · 18/01/2020 16:25

@Ginge35 I feel you. Cried yesterday at my BFN. It's the hope isn't it.

We're in it together x

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 16:31

Yes ladies! The crazy train continues! Went back to my test and I swear I can see the faintest, faintest line!!! I could just be imagining it. I tried to take a photo to show you but you can't see it on the pic!
I may just be clinching at straws here! But I'm gonna leave it now (she says 🤪🤪🤪) and just see if Im late or not!
Fucking hell! This is torture! My DH is now treating me to a takeaway tonight to try and cheer me up!
Everyone else ok?

OP posts:
Wiggleyfingers · 18/01/2020 16:46

Which test did you use @Ginge35? Have you checked how sensitive it is?

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 16:54

Just a cheapy Sainsbury's one. I have a CB Digital as well but I haven't used that one.
It's the one that's states the weeks on it. I'm going to leave using that one until I'm/if I'm late.
My boobs are still like lead and still getting cramps but I get that before AF anyway, so still utterly confused!

OP posts:
Wiggleyfingers · 18/01/2020 17:17

That's a blue dye test isn't it? They are notoriously difficult to read. Fingers crossed there is something there for you and it's not just an evap! 🤞

BecauseReasons · 18/01/2020 17:17

Did the line appear within the testing time frame (usually says on the box?). If it appeared after that time elapsed then it's an evap line. Doesn't mean it won't be positive in a few days, just that it's not at the moment. I always bin my negatives after the test window to prevent confusion later on. PP are right, it may still be too early to test.

Ginge35 · 18/01/2020 17:50

Thank you ladies! Just gonna give it another shot next month! Here's hoping the AF isn't too tragic!
I looked at that Ovia app and what it tells me with my fertile window is different by 3 days with the PC app I've currently got! That's thrown me completely now!
Going to use Ovia next month and here's hoping I get it right! 🤞
