Morning all

I started charting this month, don't know if anyone else does this? I'm now CD24 9dpo and I'm probably being wildly optimistic but looking at my chart I think I can see implantation signs. When should I test?

now I don't know if I am just hoping too much but I decided to do another test this morning - just a cheap sainsbury one. There's the faintest line in the 'pregnant' bit so I am wondering if there's still a chance. Or maybe now I am getting obessed? It's just that I know my body fairly well and my period is now late, my back kills, my breasts hurt, I have loads of wind!

My period was a whole week early last month so I wonder, if I ovulated late or my cycle is longer for some reason ... well, I don't know what I am saying. I guess I will just wait and see what happens then if nothing does (No period) I will test in a weeks time.

was there within a few minutes. I am not hoping too omuch though, it's very very faint and could be an evaporation line. It's not got any darker since though.

we shall see, and if not - there's always next month

digitalgirl · 10/11/2007 12:24

Hey beanie maybe try tomorrow or monday with a Clearblue Digital. Then there's no room for interpretation. A line, no matter how faint, is an indication of pg hormones. You may have had an egg implant but your body's finding out if it's a sticky one.

sarahnh and coolkat - sorry to hear of BFNs , I find myself by the end of CD2 or 3 that I'm quite looking forward to another month of trying (easy to say when I'm only on cycle 3).

Biglips some women get watery-CM before AF, when your cervix opens again it's the watery bit that comes out first. I'm saying that because everytime I've predicted someone's about to get their AF they get a BFP!

cbcb hope you're having a fun day by the seaside...is this another windy nips experiment?!

I wonder whether excitable got a BFP this morning...

As for me, I'm CD14 and my temp went down again this morning, although I did feel something akin to ov pains whilst still in bed. So seduced DH with my feminine wiles and then ordered him to get me the saturday papers so I could read in bed (and let his swimmers do the rest of the work). He's a very good DH.
CM is now merely watery, rather than EWCM - is it cheating to do pelvic floors to force it out? (sorry tmi ) Am hoping temp goes up again tomorrow. I could potentially have another 3 weeks to wait till ov (last one was on cd34/5).

ClairePO · 10/11/2007 12:52

Beanie that does sound hopeful especially after only a few minutes. Frustrating for you I can imagine though. Have you still got some of your CBD's left to try again tomorrow morning?

Annie I am 9 dpo, not gonna test for a few days, I normally have 28 cycles so on that basis AF would be due next Thursday. This is my 1st cycle ttc post a mc, which was a surprise pregnancy.

naaahhh - It's so faint I don't think I can trust it. Im expecting my period (well yesterday really) so if there's no show by mid week I may try again. In a way I just hope it shows up so I don't start obsessively testing. I have 2 left. One CB digital and another Sainsbury one so we'll see.

poppysocks · 10/11/2007 14:48

Having said that I wouldn't test until Tuesday (14 dpo I think), I caved in when I discovered there was on offer on First Response tests in Boots. BFN.

Bit suprised tbh as I seem to have some pretty good symptoms - and more than with DD! I know it might turn BFP in a few days, but don't think so. Surely the symptoms would have been caused by the hormones being strong enough, so should have shown up in the test?

Anyway, trying not to be down. Only second month ttc, and first properly.

Just need to work out what's causing this salivation now... Haven't been bitten by any rabid dogs recently as far as know!

pixie04 · 11/11/2007 08:15

Morning Ladies,

Sarahnh I think you need a visit to the GP. Both your tests had a line and you read them within what 30 minutes of doing the test? Two different brands both evaporation lines? I've never had an evaporation line before and have read tests the next day I'm not saying they don't happen just I've never had one. Look at your symptoms and how late you were even though you got a + OPK on CD13. Even if it is real AF I still think your Doc needs to be aware of the strange goings on this cycle. Am very very sorry AF has reared her ugly head but I think it's time to see the Dr. Generally GP's are unhelpful about these things but it's worth having it on your notes. Okay finished my lecture here I brought you a beautiful box of chocs and some wine for you to gulp its okay that its early in the morning it's MN

excitable how did it go?????

DG last time I put on my chart I had watery CM it flagged up green ie fertile.... get BDing woman

How is everyone else?

I see a BFP is on the way for beanie

Well I'm CD33, 14/9DPO no sign of AF. okay TMI alert...... After orgasm last night I got a dull ache in my womb area for a few minutes. I have also noticed that for the last say 10 - 14 days I haven't been able to orgasm properly ie I know I'm orgasming because I get the usual contracting ect but its not really that pleasurable.... Any ideas ladies is this a symptom or am I just losing my sexual appetite?

Other than that issue I still have my one sore boob (usual pre AF) my nipples have been sensetive and I've been very tired. I am now on knicker watch this week, if no AF by Saturday I am testing next weekend. 6 more days to go.....

Isobella123 · 11/11/2007 09:05

Morning. Still no AF for me. But still getting v slight bleeding ( 5 days now and wasn't due until yesterday at earliest).

Got really upset last night because I thought AF was coming. DH was really good about it and have decided to start trying if not sucessful this month (albiet that we have to wait a couple of months).

If no AF by this afternoon I am going to go to Tesco and buy a test? But which one? Do I go cheapie in case I get a BFN or expensive and it at least be accurate?

Are going to bloody center parcs tomorrow - I don't suppose they sell pregnancy tester kits in the Parc Market......lol!

pixie04 · 11/11/2007 09:17

isobella your having slight bleeding but AF isn't due yet? Sounds like implantation to me. I'd buy a double pack of cheapies do one this arvo when you buy em and whatever the result do the other 2moro AM. If either give you a BFP then get an expensive one to confirm. I reckon the Parc Market will probably do PG test but more than likley just the expensive ones.

Bucky2007 · 11/11/2007 09:39

Morning

I am a little perplexed this month. I have had NO symptoms. Usually by this time I have post ov Dolly Parton (.)(.)s and they are sensitive, although not painful exactly unless DP squishes them. . But this month I am CD22 and nothing. I am thinking maybe I did not ov. I got no signs and although my OPK broke, I didn't get a smiley around the same time as last month. Last month I had a super short cycle though 26 days so not sure what is going on.

I am really not hopeful about this month AGAIN. We haven't BD'd much and as I don't even know if there was an egg, I am not sure if we did it at the right time. There was no EWCM or anything.....

At least we are getting loads of BFPs on the threads at the moment, that makes for positive reading.

Morning Pixie and Isobella. Its so quiet at MN at weekends. Everyone seems to have happening lives!

Isobella123 · 11/11/2007 10:07

Got slight bleeding 3 days before AF due so I thought it may be implantation bleeding. Got the same thing with DS2.

I would say fingers crossed (and do really) only we have booked a holiday to Lanzarote for next July!

ClairePO · 11/11/2007 10:20

Morning all

I got upset last night too as thought AF was on her way as upset tummy and very slight spotting at CD24 9dpo. Today temp still high (went up slightly on Friday, same on Saturday and higher still today) and FertilityFriend is telling I have possible implantation bleeding on day 24 (ie yesterday) but now I'm thinking that I bet I'm not and FF is just getting my hopes up. I have a load of ebay cheapies but don't really know when to start to test.

thanks for the choccies and wine pixie and your lovely comments.. still have migrane and its driving me mad!!! i have been to the docs the last two months over my cycle and she has been so unhelpful... must admit i was very tearful yesterday and my brother and sister in law had a go at dh about my behaviour so he ended up telling them that we have been ttc... on sil just said that i need to relax and these things take time... like i need to hear that!!!

Bucky no symptoms maybe a very good sign... i don't think sweetkitty had any and she got a bfp that month so fingers crossed xxxxx

poppysocks · 11/11/2007 11:31

Well, pg test was right and I was wrong. AF arrived with a vengeance this morning.

Really must learn not to trust my instincts and 'the signs' as I must make them up. I was convinced on both counts that I was having a boy last time and ended up with my beautiful DD.

So, this is me bowing out of the 2WW and back onto CD1....

ClairePO · 11/11/2007 11:43

more spotting for me just now - must be AF on her way early

ClairePO · 11/11/2007 11:44

Poppy so sorry - I missed your post, so sorry AF is here

digitalgirl · 11/11/2007 12:54

poppysocks sorry that AF turned up

sarahnh at pointless comments from your SIL. I absolutely HATE it when you're quite obviously upset at lack of BFP and people say 'just relax blah blah blah it will happen' ggrrr. It's not what you want to hear, you just want sympathy not stupid pointless 'advice'

Anyway, temps have not shot up this morning, i.e. I didn't ov yesterday. So looks like acupuncture appt tomorrow will be justified. Or maybe it'll happen today.

Everyone else - your symptoms (or lack of) all sound good. bucky i think finn has taken your mind off obsessive ttc this month, which as everyone else likes to point is a 'good thing' and has led to many a bfp.

Am off to do our first bit of xmas shopping I am NEVER this organised. Must be the future mum in me!

Isobella123 · 11/11/2007 14:28

Don't give up hope ClairePO.

I have had spotting for the last 5 days and AF has still not turned up (was 3 days early).

Have just sent DH off to Tesco for a test!
