Hi ladies.

Got my BFN this morning despite sore nips, awful cramping for days and feeling emotional. AF is due in the coming days but as I’m so irregular I’m not sure.

Good luck to all of you waiting to test!! Fingers crossed for sticky beans!!

@samantha06
Wait until the day of your missed period if you can. A strong positive will reassure you. A faint positive will only worry you. Xx

Hi all so I think I'm 10/11DPO today, did a test this morning and I think I have a faint line on the FRER, CB Digital said Not Pregnant.

I'm not getting my hopes up as I've now got some cramping and it was very faint. I'll wait a few days and test again

MamaPheebz · 19/09/2020 12:20

I don’t think you are supposed to test early with a clear blue digital. Fingers crossed for you. Xx

Supermathsdoc · 19/09/2020 15:25

Good luck to everyone testing.

I ovulated yesterday and donor insemination was on Wednesday night so hopefully we got the timing right. This cycle I’m trying acupuncture and also intending not to test until AF is due (30th September) .... as others have mentioned, I’ve not found it helpful to get ambiguous or faint positives.....

MamaPheebz · 19/09/2020 23:33

@Supermathsdoc we are on a similar cycle day. I’m due on the first of October. Git peak ovulation a couple of days ago. I hope we are both celebrating our BFPs in 2 weeks time. I’m going to test on the 30th I think. I want to know this month lol.

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 09:12

Pre period spotting this morning. Due on properly tomorrow. Sigh.
On to the 13th month of trying 😞 I'm so disheartened.
Good luck to you all and I hope that you get BFPs.

Supermathsdoc · 20/09/2020 09:26

@MamaPheebz thanks so much, sending you lots of good vibes with everything crossed for your BFP this month x

@Theawkwardblonde sorry I didn’t see your post when I posted, sorry to hear that. 13 is tough going, hang on in there xx

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 17:35

@samantha06 @Supermathsdoc thanks peeps. Getting bloods done on the 21st day of next cycle. Husband has telephone app on the 30th to discuss going for sperm analysis. It sucks as I've had another friend announce pregnancy (that's 3 in a week) and here's me like "just smile and be fine".
I wouldn't care age is on my side (ish) I'm 28, 29 in a few weeks. Husband is 33. I've actually had enough now if I'm honest. Spent hundreds on opks, baby aspirin. Vitamins etc. I think this is me actually throwing in the towel 😞

Supermathsdoc · 20/09/2020 19:00

@Theawkwardblonde It really does take a huge toll. I think getting that appointment and some initial tests done can be helpful but is also a difficult journey in some ways. Wishing you lots of strength x

MamaPheebz · 20/09/2020 19:11

@samantha06 fingers crossed. Let us know what your results are! Xx

samantha06 · 20/09/2020 19:22

@MamaPheebz i will do😬

Aw love @Theawkwardblonde ❤️ please don't throw in the towel! I get why you feel that way. Maybe have a little break and just enjoy yourself. The TTC rollercoaster is so stressful 😔

beckyBP · 20/09/2020 19:32

Eurgh ladies.. I'm pretty sure AF will be here within the hour. I'm GUTTED! I had such a different last few days and things like the vivid dreams, early wake ups, change in skin I honestly thought this was it! 😫

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 19:33

Thanks everyone. It's just so disheartening when everyone around me is conceiving at the drop of a hat. It's just the worry something is wrong with us which the tests will show. Sorry for being so depressing. It's really affecting me and it's getting so hard fending off the "oooh when are you going to have kids?" Questions I keep getting. Super conscious that I'm nearly 29 too, so ever nearer the 30 mark.
I think I'm going to treat myself to some wine tonight 🤣

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 19:34

@beckyBP awww no! It sounded so promising. Could it be implantation or is it too late for that? Sending hugs x

beckyBP · 20/09/2020 19:41

@Theawkwardblonde it's the waiting and not knowing every month isn't it. It's so consuming. Don't apologise for venting! You're allowed. Have that wine girl 🍷

It's too late I think! I'm 13dpo. This is the first time I've convinced myself that I was 😫 but I can fully feel the 'period impending any sec' pains right now. Xx

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 19:44

@beckyBP it's a bitch when you think it is. You're not out yet fully through so fingers crossed it doesn't start. Last month I was adamant I was pregnant as I felt exactly like how I did with my chemicals. It's devastating when you feel your period coming on.
It makes me laugh as when I was younger I was terrified of getting pregnant to the point where I would double up on contraception 🤣🤣 definitely been an eye opener on how hard it is to conceive!

beckyBP · 20/09/2020 19:48

Right?! @Theawkwardblonde I say this all the time! It was drummed into us.. 'have sex and you'll get pregnant'. I do think we should have been taught that it's not that easy as to be honest Everything I've learnt about fertility has been in the last 3 months! X

Theawkwardblonde · 20/09/2020 20:21

@beckyBP I always think of the line off the film Mean Girls where the teachers says "don't have sex. You will get pregnant and die!" 🤣🤣
Despite having sex from my teens, I didn't actually know much about fertility. It was only when I downloaded an app when we started TTC that I was like wow-fertile days?!? We just get it drilled in to use contraception but I had no idea some days were better than others as I hadn't really thought about it. Makes me sound naive despite me thinking I'm not 🤣🤣 mental!
