Planning to test on Tue and would love some company. Anyone else planning to test then or next week? Would love some company and hopefully a bunch of BFPs!!

Congrats @cockneysparra1 great news! BFN from me too, CD32 today (I'm usually 28-30) so think the Norethisterone has cocked me up 😭

FlyOnTheWall89 · 22/09/2021 06:12

@cockneysparra1congratulationss!! This was a really exciting thread to read 😂. Did you test again? Interesting to read you’ve not had many symptoms because I just so expect SOME symptoms and then wonder if I just imagine them.

Waiting for AF to arrive today - if not, I may do another test. I tested 2 days ago with CB and it was negative. I really felt that I was pregnant this month.

Keep me up to day everyone. Would like to keep a thread going to help see out the TWW each time. X

cockneysparra1 · 22/09/2021 06:25

@FlyOnTheWall89 thanks 🤣

Honestly I had more symptoms the last 4 months when I wasn't pregnant than this month. Last month I had everything going - tired, spots, gas, sore boobs, nausea etc but AF came even earlier than usual!

We only dtd twice this month and one of them was way too early. We've aren't the kind of couple who have sex every night (no thanks😴) so I was thinking maybe I was putting too much pressure on him and realllly tried to relax this month. Still tracked my AF on my app and made a move and kinda the right time but didn't mention it. I also low key made sure we both drank loads of water cause I read that helps with sperm and CM! I also didn't even think about testing til the day before my period.

Sorry to everyone with AF, honestly I really know how you feel. Took us 7 months to get our first and the disappointment is so real. Last month my oh came home to me crying in bed lol. Xxx

FlyOnTheWall89 · 22/09/2021 06:29

@cockneysparra1👌🏻 Sounds like it was just meant to happen this month then. Really pleased for you. If you felt more pregnant in the previous months, you must have been so shocked 😂. Hope you have a wonderful strong bean.

Xx

FlyOnTheWall89 · 22/09/2021 06:31

And yes, BFN and AF…. Arh the disappointment, the confusion. 4 cycles in, this is my fifth. Not long at all in the grand scheme of things - read so many stories…. Women are so so strong. Xx

Mummytobe93 · 22/09/2021 07:03

@FlyOnTheWall89 I’m sorry lovely about your AFs arrival. I’m expecting mine any day now … and yes, women are literally super heroes! 🦾

Let’s not feel discouraged though, if my AF arrives I’ll try something else next cycle - the BBT charting. I didn’t give it much thought before but after knowing more about it it makes sense. My OPKs let me down this cycle, I’m hoping temping will be more reliable way of catching my ovulation. It’s like a school project 🤓😂

This morning I decided to spare myself the anxiety and my first morning wee went straight to 🚽. No testing for me today 👋

How’s everyone else doing? Xx

Danani · 22/09/2021 07:53

Morning everyone.

Nothing to report over here, waiting for AF on Friday.
Feeling a bit deflated, not sure if you can tell, but looking forward to a glass of wine on Fri and then will re-group and off we go again.
I've ordered the femometer to try BBT charting as well, as well as OPKs. Hopefully it will be our lucky October? :)

Yes!! 😊It’d be great to conceive next month, a July baby - doesn’t collide with any other birthdays in the family apart from my DH

And definitely have some 🍷 after AF arrival, you deserve it! Xx

CrazyCatLady75340 · 22/09/2021 08:52

Morning ladies! Same here @Danani. 12 DPO today and BFN on an IC (although FRER's coming at some point today so I've boarded my pi$$ like a weirdo.

I'm so confused though because I feel 100% pregnant and I've had so many symptoms.

CrazyCatLady75340 · 22/09/2021 09:07

*hoarded my pi$$

sle0911 · 22/09/2021 09:55

Haha @CrazyCatLady75340 I have some FRERs arriving today too but gonna try my best to leave them be 😂😂

CrazyCatLady75340 · 22/09/2021 10:17

Good luck holding out @sle0911. For anyone getting BFN's around 12 DPO, have a look at these stats ☺️ Made me feel better xx

FlyOnTheWall89 · 22/09/2021 11:10

@CrazyCatLady75340 thanks for this - really interesting.

@Mummytobe93 sorry - confusing message. I am not out yet. No AF yet. Just empathising with past cycles.

beckybabyx · 22/09/2021 11:15

@Danani If AF comes the weekend I'll be joining you with that glass (bottle) of wine haha xx

Karmamarley · 23/09/2021 01:15

Can I join? Currently on 12dpo with similar symptoms as my previous mc. And still testing negative 😩 I know it's early but so discouraging! Hope you ladies get you BFP's x

beckybabyx · 23/09/2021 06:15

Welcome @Karmamarley I’m 12dpo also and spotted again this morning. Think I’m more than likely out this month Sad

Danani · 23/09/2021 08:07

Good morning! How are we all this morning?

I can start - after getting BFNs Mon, Tue and yesterday, decided not to do it to myself today so just waiting for AF tomorrow.

Also TMI (sorry) but I'm dry as the Sahara Desert today, which is fun! Not.

And on that cheery note - have a great day everyone, I hope we get some more BFPs in here before the end of the week!
But if not, I've set up a new thread called Lucky October for anyone who's already out and wishes to join me again in this special kind of torture. JK! It's great to have you all to go through this together and is so uplifting to see so many BFPs! x

beanchopper17 · 23/09/2021 08:55

I have managed to get to 9dpo and not test 😱

Mainly cause I have had a massive mood dip, I started the 2 week wait very positive and thinking we did everything we could, but sadly past day or 2 my outlook has changed (taking into consideration how long I have been trying). So bit down in the dumps today, I might test tomorrow or just leave it till af 🤷🏼‍♀️

Glad to see some ladies have had their bfp, congrats to you all 🎉

The bit about being dry- same!

I used to wear panty lines on the regular , and now I’ve got hardly any discharge … got a little bit yesterday and the day before, but never enough to stay on my underwear 😬 I drink plenty of water too, so I’m not dehydrated. Weird! Maybe it’s stress? Idk

beckybabyx · 23/09/2021 11:02

Thanks @Danani will definitely be joining the October thread if AF shows up.
Trying to stay positive holding onto that last hope!

CrazyCatLady75340 · 23/09/2021 18:05

Evening all, I didn’t test this morning because my AF hit me early overnight. Still have horrific backache, nausea and abdomen twinges but hey, I’ve given up trying to work out what my body is doing after this week. How is everyone else?

Mummytobe93 · 23/09/2021 18:35

I’ve tested negative after coming from work. I can feel a juicy AF coming tomorrow so I’m 90% sure I’m out.

I’m looking forward to October, with my ovulation due around the 8th apparently (subject to OPKs and BBT chart).

We don’t tend to have sex everyday, every other day or even weekly sometimes but once I see my fertile window beings DH won’t know what hit him 😈

Hope everyone keeps in good spirit! ✨

Xx

beckybabyx · 23/09/2021 19:00

Just did an early detection clearblue (12dpo) and BFN so had a little cry. Just want AF to show up now so we can go into next month to try again xx
