No but it might be worth seeing if they have any helpful advice?

@Franklydear oh no was so hoping it was gonna be the first BFP of the thread sending big hugs for you, it's always worth a chat with the diva cos of the spotting I think

@Vil10 I'm def a witch 🧙🏻‍♀️🧙‍♂️🧙

Marking my place, another test today and another bfn (10dpo, cd31)

Still got a couple of days to go before AF due 🤞

Aww @Franklydear I was really hoping this would be your month. You've probably mentioned before, but did it take you long to conceive your son? I'm still thinking you have a good chance naturally as you have done it before!

@2020mission was very relaxing trying with ds, ie just didn’t take the pill, must had some spotting too as I went to the midwife late and dates didn’t match last alleged periods
@Minster2012 the diva must be my doc, need to see her soon, so maybe mentioned, nhs website said go to see you after 3 missed periods if before 45, only just.
How do I record this on the app? Every spotting day? The only one that left something on pad? It can’t be too early to show on test, surely...

Thanks for the new bus @Juno231, just finished reading the old one so had to copy my replies over...

Hi everyone, been off the radar for a bit too. I sat and had a good old catch up Friday night but before I could type replies etc I went to the toilet and there was pink when I wiped. Was so gutted (especially as I was only 9dpo) that I went and sat in the garden and smoked a few menthol roll ups 😂😂 they're my guilty pleasure and I haven't smoked for months thinking it would help with ttc. I'm normally only a social smoker anyway. I had v light spotting, more just when I wiped Saturday day and into Sunday when it was more browny and now seems to have tailed off to nothing. I'm 12 dpo today and not sure if I should feel slightly hopeful or if I'm just waiting for the inevitable. It is normal for me to spot before AF but not usually starting so early and after 2 days of spotting AF usually wallops me full on.

Anyway, enough waffling from me. Hope everyone is ok. Congratulations to whoever had the BFP 🥰

@TTCmummy2021 good to hear from you again, sounds like you've both had a tough time so 🤞🏻 the IUI is successful x

@LaceyMermaid sorry it looks like AF is coming-wish she would realise she is not a welcome visitor for most of us (bar those with crazy cycles at the mo who would welcome her presence @lucyrp) x

@notyetamumbuttrying that view pic makes me so wanna go on holiday. Hope you had a lovely break x

@lucyrp glad your covid test was negative x

Welcome back @Newbie0818, that's a shitter if you think you didn't ovulate, were you tracking at all? X

So sorry it's a bfn @Franklydear it's jut so fucking shit isn't it ☹️ sending hugs

Sorry to those I've missed out, here's to September being our month 🤞🏻😘

Thanks @Clairey844 I’m similar to you kind of spotting heavily but not really AF yet 🤷🏼‍♀️ So annoying and don’t blame you for having a few cheeky smokes! I’m 13dpo. Think it must be AF but my body isn’t working properly still after the coil (only had it out two months)

@Franklydear say whatever you want to the doc 🤔🤷‍♀️which app do you use?

& @Clairey844 so pleased you aren't out! Don't worry bout it! The pink could be IB! Yay!

@Newbie0818 welcome back! How was the anniversary?

@Minster2012, I use on called my tracker, is a simple one, to record dates and symptoms, otherwise I have no chance of remembering

I’ll give her a call, to talk about the spotting and the symptoms continuing, I don’t have any menopause’s symptoms, it’s a bit early....

@Franklydear I would just have to put spotting them until it's full flow I'm afraid

@Minster2012 I stopped spotting yesterday, there’s been no full flow, nausea, sore boobs and pulling cramps persist though, the only day that was something on pad was Friday night but not much, a panty liner would have done the job

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm about to lose my shit😂 I had it in my head that this month could possibly be our month because I've not bothered with anything other than folic acid and opks and because I go back to work on Thursday I'll be too busy to even think about the TWW so thought relaxing would help but not gonna happen if I don't even get my peak!!

@Franklydear so sorry for bfn, sending hugs x

@Laceymermaid I love your positivity, I wish I could be like that, I haven't got a dark line on an opk and I'm flipping my lid😂 I'm sure it'll just be the coil, things like that can have an affect x

@Clairey844 that could be implantation bleeding!! Especially starting at 9dpo and only lasting a few days!

@Vil10 trust me I’m not always like it 🤣 I’m lucky though because I have dc already so this is just a bonus if it works, if not I know I’m very lucky. The POAS and not ever getting a high really did my head in this month though so I really do know how you feel! So much so I’m not sure I’ll bother next month I might just temp and dtd regularly so I can try to see that ov happened!

@LaceyMermaid well at least you have the one dc but I'll have my fingers crossed for you that it happens again🤞🏼I'm glad it's not just me, I feel a bit like sacking this cycle off now and not even bothering testing, but now I feel like af is going to be late and I was in such a regular cycle too, might just sack everything off next month and just go with the flow, happened for most of my friends doing that🙄

@Franklydear sorry to hear about your bfn. I usually write a note on my app on that day if that helps.

@Vil10 I think there is a lot to be said for that if you can! I have 3 dc 🙈 so see what I mean by saying I’m lucky already 😬

@Clairey844 I did thank you, I feel all anxious tonight having to go bk to normality 😩 your symptoms sound promising btw hun, that well could have been implantation spotting. Perhaps test tomorrow morning if you have any FRER in?

@Vil10 I feel for you hun, that must be highly frustrating!! Did you do another opk this evening?

@Minster2012 and @notyetamumbuttrying
Obviously I am hoping it's IB but I'm stupidly superstitious and with my LG I didn't have any bleeding just a missed period then with my mmc I ha spotting/a light period around the time AF was due so in my head I have convinced myself that if I get anything then I'm out so almost don't want to get my hopes up.

I do have a new 2 pack of FRER burning a hole in my bathroom cabinet but think I will wait until AF is due or late i.e. a few days of no spotting before I am brave enough to test 😂
If I make it through tomorrow with no spotting, I'm at work Wednesday so will test Thursday if nothing shows.
Although who am I kidding, if I wake up tomorrow with nothing I may sneak a cheeky IC test in just to satisfy the urge 😂

Plus my periods have come on CD28 or 29 the last 3 months so Thursday would be CD30 so then I will officially be late lol

Thanks all you lovely ladies. Will get the chocolate in just in case x

@vil10 I know what you mean - I've barely even remembered to take my pregnacare this cycle and I've not done any of the ass juice/pomegranate juice mumbo jumbo this cycle. I've run out of ubiquinol as well early on and just haven't bothered to buy more - I mean what's the point 😅. Soooo secretly I'm hoping this will have done the trick 🙊

@Busybee143 @Minster2012 ok, so I recorded the spotting and put notes on the day on pad, app showing annoyingly late, will call doc tomorrow and see what she says, no more spotting, but symptoms still here

@Franklydear sorry about the bfn. Are you taking that you answer or will you try again with fmu?
@Clairey844 that sounds hopeful. I Understand the superstitious thinking but I don't think there is any harm in implantation bleeding, it's just unfortunate that that's the way things went for you before. Stay positive and good luck testing!

@Katao thanks.

@Katao, I will test in a week, unless something dramatic happens in the middle, I totally expect doctor to say that as well, nhs website says you need to miss 3 periods in a row to be seen, and then bloods if under 45, tbh, I don’t know what to think, but I expected a positive at two days late
