HHello everyone - looking for some March friends to go through the dreaded TWW with 😁 DPO -3, AF due March 11.

Been on another thread for 4 cycles now but everyone on there seems to have gotten a BFP now apart from me 🤷🏽‍♀️ Hoping that we can support each other through this cycle and continue to do so for us that get BFNs and need to keep positive for each other.

Little bit about me - 36, 1 DS 15, TTC second child with partner, cycle 5, 1 early MC last cycle, 1 anovulation cycle in December - hoping this will be our month 💪🏼😍

Test today*

KerryW87 · 10/03/2020 20:14

@Pink15 Haha yeah, I'd be the same! Be good if we knew before the weekend so we could either have a celebratory tea or a commiseration weekend wine 😂

Aww you never know, though. My wee sister said her symptoms were just like her PMS symptoms so even though it's infuriating them being similar, it means you never know! Update us in the morning then!

Yeah she does, this is her first so I'm so excited for her ❤️ I'm lucky enough to have my boys anyway, but fingers crossed for a wee lucky third! Would this be your first or do you have children? x

@Pink15 went to nurse for something else today and she did one for me and still BFN..not sure what to think, nurse wasnt sure what to think either..she told me to test again at a week late and if no AF by end of next week then to go to docs. I thought that as I got my 1st period 4 weeks after coming off pill that they had gone straight back to how they used to be before the pill. The mind boggles lol

Anyone else had any luck after AF no show and BFN then to go on and have a BFP?

Pink15 · 10/03/2020 21:20

@KerryW87 yes would be good to know before weekend but I'm not due until Sunday 🙄
Are you still gonna wait until Friday to test?
I don't have any children yet. How long did it take to conceive your boys?

@Pix2 that's annoying!! Hopefully you will know one way or the other soon!

KerryW87 · 10/03/2020 21:35

Oh right enough, got mixed up and thought it was earlier because you tested today! Fingers crossed 🤞

Ahh how exciting that it'll be your first! ❤️ I had my boys 10 and 8 years ago when I was much younger and I wasn't trying (on the pill)...how that ever happened now I have NO idea since almost a decade on I'm trying everything and getting nowhere! 😂

Pink15 · 10/03/2020 21:42

@KerryW87 apparently if you take the pill then stop you can get like a boosting effect!

Yes I was just testing super early Cos I'm crazy 😜 my friend got a positive 4days prior so I thought hey, why not try 5 days prior?

jazzibelle · 11/03/2020 00:27

@Pink15 oh god, soon I guess. My head’s still spinning from it all TBH

Pink15 · 11/03/2020 06:39

@KerryW87 slightly darker today actually appears on my camera!!!!!!

KerryW87 · 11/03/2020 07:37

@Pink15 Oh my god, that looks positive to me! How exciting! 🎉🎉💕 Especially if you're not even due until Sunday!

Pix2 · 11/03/2020 08:03

@Pink15 good luck! That looks like a positive to me!

Twinkletoes85 · 11/03/2020 09:49

I’ve woken up with a couple of spots on my chin and some mild spotting today. AF due in a couple of days and I feel very ‘due’ so I don’t think I’ve been lucky this month. Positive is two periods in a row when they are supposed to arrive is good! Means I’ve got my cycle back.

Good luck to everyone testing this week!

Littlepeas2 · 11/03/2020 09:57

@Pink15 that definitely looks like a positive! I can normally never see the faint lines but I can see that! How exciting!!

@KerryW87 your situation sounds similar to mine! I have a 9 & 6 years old...first one was a surprise and the second one I fell first month... roll on some years and now in my thirties and this 3rd one is testing me 😂

KerryW87 · 11/03/2020 11:26

@Littlepeas2 Ah really? It's nice to have someone in a similar boat then! It's typical, isn't it! Naive me genuinely thought that if I had two surprises then if I actually put any effort in it'd happen IMMEDIATELY...how wrong I was 😂

When are you due to test? I'm Friday but feel like AF is definitely due, same symptoms I have every month! x

Littlepeas2 · 11/03/2020 12:30

Yes I know I was pretty much the same 🤣 I’m not due to ovulate until the weekend as I have a 34 day cycle! It’s been a slooooow week! It’s so hard isn’t it as symptoms are so similar! Are you going to hold out until Friday to test?

Pix2 · 11/03/2020 12:46

4 days late now, no AF, have had some brown spotting last week on and off but no flow. BFN yesterday. Not restesting now till saturday which will put me 1 week late

leaferty · 11/03/2020 13:36

@Pink15 my bfp with my first was exactly like that. How exciting!

Anyone using the clear blue ovulation kits? I used internet cheapies last time, but I'd bought a pack of clear blue ones. I'm meant to be in peak fertility according to my app but getting negatives on the clear blue sticks. Lines on the cheapies are getting a bit darker but not yet positive. Not sure if I'm actually ovulating at all!

Pink15 · 11/03/2020 19:40

Thankyou! I'm not letting it sink in until AF doesn't show up on Sunday!!

KerryW87 · 12/03/2020 06:40

@Littlepeas2 Aw I bet! It feels like once you're TTC you're always either consciously or subconsciously counting days all the time, doesn't it? Here's hoping the days fly in for you!

Yeah, going to wait until tomorrow. The disappointment of seeing BFNs each month has been hitting me harder than I thought it would! So, with no new symptoms to report this month I'll hold off so I don't put myself in a bad mood unnecessarily 🙈

How do you think your two will feel about a new wee one? My oldest actually jokingly begs me for a baby sister all the time, he's the broodiest 10 year old I've ever known! My 8 year old...that could be a problem, he enjoys being the youngest 😂

KerryW87 · 13/03/2020 07:19

@Pink15 @Littlepeas2 Well, AF came as I was doing a test this morning...wish it had arrived 5 minutes before and save me wasting a test 😂 Had a wee cry and now just need to get on with it, try again next cycle! 🤞

Pink15 · 13/03/2020 08:06

@KerryW87 sorry to hear that :( sending hugs your way! X

MamaPixie · 13/03/2020 15:55

15 DPO and AF is 1 day late 🤦🏽‍♀️ had some really light spotting yesterday morning but 14dpo has to be far too late for implantation?
BFN too on a 25mlu/100
I'm worried if it is was that if AF came it wouldn't stick anyway... arrgh!!
It just has to be a late Af right??

KerryW87 · 13/03/2020 18:19

@Pink15 Thank you ❤️ Going to try and be better with the vitamins, drink more water and cut out wine this cycle to test that theory, and just keep my fingers crossed!

Lovely news about your BFP! 💕

Pix2 · 13/03/2020 20:07

Now 6 days late and test this morning had the faintest of lines but done one this afternoon and this evening and both BFN..Sad

KerryW87 · 13/03/2020 20:57

@Pix2 Ah, I feel for you :( So frustrating when you don't know either way! Are you usually quite regular? Here's hoping you get that BFP soon or at least AF so you know! x

Pix2 · 13/03/2020 21:28

I was on the pill for 1 year and had no periods, came off and got one exactly 4 weeks later like I used to so assumed back to normal but that was beginning of feb and no bleed since!
