I hope everyone doesn't mind but set up a new one as we have reached the limit!

AF has just shown up so over to the August thread I go! Can't say I'm not disappointed but despite all the symptoms I think I just knew it wasn't my month. Will keep an eye on this thread and hopefully see a few more BFPs! Going to keep going with my clearblue advanced ovulation kit but try and stay away from the apps and logging symptoms etc this month x

krj2608 · 17/07/2020 15:13

I'm So sorry @whambam89
August is a good month x

mm26 · 17/07/2020 22:50

Sorry to hear that @whambam89 💕

whambam89 · 18/07/2020 07:11

@krj2608 @boc86 @mm26 thanks all, disappointed but onwards and upwards to cycle 3! Will keep stalking this thread of course and will hopefully see some more BFPs soon x

How is everyone today? Anyone else symptom spotting? My app is telling me to test tomorrow and I've got a FRER coming in the post today so I'll do that tomorrow morning. Did a cheapie today and a line was visible for a split second as the dye ran across but then disappeared. The. After 2 mins I could swear I could see the shadow of something but I think it's just my eyes playing tricks!

I've had tiny cramps every day for the last week or so. Just small cramps maybe twice a day at the most, and only around for about 10-30 seconds at a time. Not building and coming in huge painful waves like they have in the past.
I've also had uncomfortable boobs the past few days- not sore, just I've had to wear a soft bra to bed as I feel like they are heavy and getting in the way when I'm trying to sleep.
I had a cold sore and sinus pain on the day I got the cold sore - not sure if related or not?!

How's everyone else been feeling? Anyone testing over the next few days?

Buns05 · 18/07/2020 12:23

I'm not really symptom spotting this month at all! Although the other night I got a really strange stitch like feeling down near my hip/below my tummy button that only lasted a few minutes.... no idea what that was all about 🤷‍♀️

PabsyPops · 18/07/2020 13:21

Guys... I need advice and I am freaking the f**k out. I have just been to the toilet and wiped some darkish brown blood (sorry TMI). AF isn't due for around another 5 days. I don't really know when I ovulated this month but I suspect it was around 7/8 days ago. Could this be implantation?? Help!!

mm26 · 18/07/2020 13:23

@PabsyPops I'm no expert but from my intensive googling I think that's a good sign and sounds like implantation! Fingers crossed for you that your get a bfp! 😀

PabsyPops · 18/07/2020 13:25

@mm26 eek! I've been so chilled this month (hence why I haven't been writing on here!) but now I'm going to be on edge until I can do test! My husband actually rang me at the same time whilst I was having a wee lol and I blurted it out to him so he is going to be on edge too now! When do you think I can test?

mm26 · 18/07/2020 14:09

The waiting and being on edge is the worst!! I've decided not to tell OH about anything until I've got a solid line to show him otherwise he'll freak out with the not knowing!
I don't know, I think most people seems to say you should still try to test at 12DPO? I've no clue though sorry! I'm ttc my first and haven't had anything like this to compare to! Maybe one of the others on here who've experienced this before can shed some light. Have you had any other "symptoms"? What cycle ttc are you?

PabsyPops · 18/07/2020 14:37

@mm26 I've tried not to pay any attention this month but I did have a headache last night and very slightly sore boobs. AF is never ever early so I'm not thinking it's that but who knows!! I have been off contraception for about 7-8 months but haven't really been "properly" trying. I started using CB OPK last month which basically told me I was ovulating at a completely different time to when I thought so really we've only tried properly, at the right time, for 2 months! Even though this month though I was away when I ovulated! It's so hard to tell 😂 I'm so excited now but don't want to get my hopes up!!

Boc86 · 18/07/2020 16:10

I’m out :(
Having my second chemical in a row, so gutted :(

PabsyPops · 18/07/2020 17:26

@Boc86 oh I'm so sorry ☹️

Boc86 · 18/07/2020 17:49

Thank you @PabsyPops
I’m so upset, why can’t I stay pregnant

krj2608 · 18/07/2020 18:19

@Boc86 I'm so sorry, I hope you get your sticky one next cycle x ThanksThanksThanks

Thank you, I hope so, this is awful to fall pregnant come but it not stick x

PabsyPops · 19/07/2020 08:18

AF arrived for me today - what a head f**k!! I thought I was having implantation bleed yesterday and today AF has just made an appearance. I don't even know now when I ovulated or even if I did. Feeling shit!

Boc86 · 19/07/2020 08:26

Aww sorry to hear that :(

mm26 · 19/07/2020 09:41

Aw @PabsyPops I'm so sorry! 😫 that so crap! How long did you have between O and AF?

sindylouwho · 19/07/2020 10:51

When have people been testing? When period is due or 10dpo?

PabsyPops · 19/07/2020 12:20

@mm26 well if the flo app predicted O right then 10 days... but I did an OPK on the day and it said high. I never got my peak so I either ovulated early and missed it with my OPKS or never ovulated at all. I just don't get it at all. I've just ordered a femometer.

mm26 · 19/07/2020 12:30

@PabsyPops I never got a peak with OPK either. I had flashing smileys on the CB one for about 17 days (testing mostly twice a day) then ran out of sticks! I usually have a 35(ish) day cycle. I don't know if I missed my peak, didn't O or if the OPK just wasn't working for me. I did have to change holder half way through flashing smileys though, so possible issue there. I'm also 10DPO today. Still a little crampy. Will test tomorrow I think.
Do you think it is properly AF or could it be just heavy implantation?

mm26 · 19/07/2020 12:30

@sindylouwho I'm 10DPO today but didn't have a test. I'll probably test tomorrow!
