Sorry you still feel so shit @kirinm, hope it all goes well with your scan and you can get some answers.

@whambam89 I wish I had your mentality, I probably would have peed on another 10 sticks by now 😂

Welcome @89Ann!

AF is slowly creeping in today so 100% out. Bring on September. 💪

@LeopardLover AF here for you yet?

Boc86 · 13/08/2020 14:57

Ahh no sorry @MrsB2019x

LeopardLover · 13/08/2020 15:09

@Sansa87 Hope your work day is going okay? 😊 Thanks for letting me know how many times you DTD to get your BFP!

@kirinm Oh you poor thing. 😔 Hope the EPU goes okay!

@whambam89 Makes sense to just use the tests you have! Hopefully that line is even darker tomorrow. 😊

@Boc86 Ugh, are you sure? That sucks, I'm sorry. 😔

@MrsB2019x Noooo! To the September Club! No AF yet but my cramps tell me it's coming. X

Boc86 · 13/08/2020 15:25

I just feel positive AF is on the way @LeopardLover 😢😢 obv hope I wrong but you know how you feel before AF it’s just like that x

whambam89 · 13/08/2020 15:38

I've taken a strip test this afternoon and it's BFN so wondering if this morning was a false positive 😭 no sign of AF yet though and I do feel like I've been hit by a tonne of bricks this afternoon.. went to get DD up from her nap and ended up falling asleep 🙈 so who knows what's going on!

LeopardLover · 13/08/2020 15:43

@Boc86 Yeah because I feel the same 😭

@whambam89 That would make sense though because it's the afternoon? Doesn't mean you're out! Test first thing tomorrow morning and hopefully it'll be clearer 😊

whambam89 · 13/08/2020 15:47

@LeopardLover I know I need to take my own advice sometimes but I just feel like it should be picking up something still, surely? When I was pregnant with DD I tested about 7pm the day AF was due and got a strong positive (although I suppose my LP could have been longer than so potentially could have been more dpo) Guess I'll wait and see what tomorrow morning brings.. just feeling a bit deflated!

MrsB2019x · 13/08/2020 16:40

@Boc86 @LeopardLover Hope it stays away for you both!

@whambam89 Bless you I bet you don’t know what to think! Maybe the strip test is less sensitive. Try again tomorrow lovely, I’m sure you’ll see a nice dark line! x

Boc86 · 13/08/2020 16:44

Horrible isn’t it @LeopardLover so deflating
Thank you @MrsB2019x

whambam89 · 13/08/2020 17:12

@MrsB2019x I was in 2 minds as to whether to test again today and now I'm regretting testing because it's made me go from being really hopefully to just feeling really rubbish!

@LeopardLover when is AF due for you? Did you say Saturday?

whambam89 · 13/08/2020 17:13

@Boc86 how many dpo are you? Hoping AF doesn't show for you!

Boc86 · 13/08/2020 19:25

I’m 8dpo and AF is due tomorrow x

Tigger1987 · 13/08/2020 19:55

Evening everyone,
I have a really sore throat today which is great in this heat and suffered with a migraine (just the aura luckily) which I haven't had in a few years. What a fun day!! I am hoping it rains here soon as it keeps promising to thunder and then doesn't!!

@kirinm Really sorry to hear you are still feeling poorly. I will be thinking of you tomorrow.

@89Ann Welcome to the group!! 🙂🙂

@whambam89 Like you said, take your own advice. Strip tests can take a while to show a positive especially with evening urine.

@LeopardLover @Boc86 Glad to hear AF has stayed away. I am due tomorrow too but also have cramps. I always wish I could fast forward these couple of days of the 2WW.

LeopardLover · 13/08/2020 19:55

@whambam89 I understand why you'd feel deflated but your symptoms all point to a BFP!! Crossing my fingers for you. 😊 It's due today but I think I was three days late last month! I'm expecting it overnight.

@Boc86 Yeah, it sucks! We haven't told anyone we're TTC and I'm really glad because I think we'd get questions etc when I'd rather just be disappointed as a pair haha.

LeopardLover · 13/08/2020 19:58

@Tigger1987 Ah, AGREE. We shouldn't wish our lives away but the waiting sucks! Hopefully no AF for you and the migraine was an early pregnancy sign X

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 06:03

The waiting is awful isn’t it @Tigger1987 I definitely think the second half of the tww is harder too
@LeopardLover we haven’t told anyone either except my best friend and I’m actually finding it hard not being able to talk to anyone but at the same time I definitely wouldn’t have wanted to tell everyone about the chemicals because I’d have found it too hard to talk about to loads of people

9dpo/due on today and I know it’s coming :(
Good luck everyone else who’s due on, hope she stays away x

LeopardLover · 14/08/2020 06:14

Morning!

@Boc86 It's so tricky, isn't it. I am tempted to confide in one person like you did! I'm sorry you've been through such a difficult time. 😔

It was all very dramatic last night - as the crazy storm hit I felt like I had thunder and lightning in my uterus! 😂 BBT took a plunge so AF is coming today. Xx

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 06:39

Thank you ❤️
BFN this morning, testing to check for another chemical which luckily it isn’t this time

Aww no boo for AF :(

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 06:46

Af is here 😭😭😭😭

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 06:52

BFN this morning 😭 different test to yesterday but not even a hint of a line. Yesterday's line 100% has colour and came up within less than a minute so I'm so confused. Boobs still sore and still no sign of AF - I suppose the only plus if it was a false positive is that my LP is longer again than last month.

@Boc86 sorry that AF has shown up!
@LeopardLover sorry about the temp drop... It's so emotionally exhausting isn't it 😔

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 07:05

Ahh sorry for bfn and thank you ❤️😢 x

BuckleUp · 14/08/2020 07:25

@whambam89 You never know, and like you've said, at least your LP is longer this cycle.

@LeopardLover Sorry your temp has dropped. I hope the cramps have stopped hurting so much. Thinking of you x

@Boc86 @MrsB2019x Sorry AF has arrived. Time for a refreshing drink in the garden for the both of you x

@Tigger1987 I hope your migraine is better today, that must be especially hard in this heat..

@kirinm I hope the EPU gives you some answers and you're feeling better soon 💐

@89Ann Welcome to the group, everyone here is lovely. Those thoughts are normal but 3 cycles TTC is still early days. Wishing you all the best this month 😊

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 07:36

@BuckleUp it was a different test I used this morning so not sure on the sensitivity differences but feel like I'm clutching at straws. Stuck between may as well use the other 2 tests I have in so I'm not making myself feel this rubbish every day and waiting and testing again tomorrow morning. Don't know why I let myself get excited, I literally saw the line appear so it definitely wasn't an evap - why are places allowed to sell tests that give this false hope?! False positives are meant to be "impossible" but they seem to be so common at the moment.

MrsB2019x · 14/08/2020 07:50

Oh @whambam89 I’m so sorry, what a head scrambler for you! I hope you get answers soon x

Welcome to the AF club @Boc86 and @LeopardLover. Mine is kicking the absolute shit out of me today! I feel awful!

LeopardLover · 14/08/2020 07:54

@Boc86 Sorry AF has arrived 😭

@whambam89 As you used a different test, the sensitivity will be different - don't be disheartened yet, this doesn't mean you had a false positive! I knew it was coming, still sucks though... Ready for AF to start so we can crack on with cycle 4!

@BuckleUp Thank you, lovely. 💖 Cramps have certainly eased, just keen for AF to show up, STAT. Hope you're feeling okay.

@kirinm Good luck today! X
