TWW starting 12th October

[anotherscroller]

Anyone want to wait with me? I’m aiming to start testing at 9dpo.
cycle 9, baby 2
baby dust to all 🪄

I just tried my last test and BFN, I wish I hadn't of tested early now, very sad morning. Although, today I would've been five days late for AF anyway and I'm never late 🙁

@TulipVictory so so sorry 🤍
Agreed early testing is the worst! I've taken to and both negative, Both way to early and make me so upset!

2nd day of cramps, just want AF to arrive now so I can start again

It is so sad isn't it. I get so overly invested by a glimpse of a line and then I'm devastated when it doesn't happen. I've really struggled this time and cried a lot! I really don't know if I'll be trying again. Even tho I really want to x

This has turned out to be a sad thread 😢
update here: I’m now on cycle day 42 which is just unheard of.
period is 5 days late.
If AF hasn’t come by tomorrow afternoon I’m going to buy another test to do on Monday morning.
so weird. I’m wondering if it’s related to the supplements I’ve been taking.

@anotherscroller what supplements have you been taking lovely? Sorry if you’ve said already!

@ChloeN prenatal multivit, omega 3, coenzyme q10 and low dose iron.
been taking multivitamin forever, the others I started on last cycle
thank you 🙏

Yes @anotherscroller you are right this thread hasn't gone very well has it 😰 will be holding onto a bit of hope for you though 😊

I’m still 3 days away from AF, but I can’t help tho king there might be something to come, or I just have line eyes 😂

Thinking *

That’s the original

@Beck208 I can see something but I’m not going to say congrats until I see tomorrows, it’s so so faint. Fingers crossed.

Still no AF here, cycle day 42… I don’t have PCOS … doing another test tomorrow morning which will of course be negative but I just want to end this madness!

I think I have AF starting today, had cramps the past 2 days but no cramps today, had some red spotting when wiping this morning and I little bit more this afternoon, BFN on a FRER last night (only did it as I was going out for tea-so drank a lot of wine to cheer me up!) even though I knows it's just the spotting I get before AF, I still find myself googling implantation bleeding 🙈 lost the plot!

Aaaand bfn

@anotherscroller so sorry xx must be so confusing for you x

@anotherscroller sorry about bfn! Any signs of Af?
I spotted on and off yesterday and had mild cramps, nothing yet today but this is very normal for me before AF

Literally none. I think my body has just shut down.
I’m making some radical decisions to try and get my body kick started again!
worried I’m going into premature menopause because my periods have got lighter since giving birth — reassure me?
I’m 32 and otherwise healthy. But this is so weird. Day 43. What on earth.

@Harriet669 I agree it does sound like AF. But there’s always the glimmer isn’t there.

@anotherscroller do you normally have such long cycles?

@anotherscroller No more red sprouting just had some light brown when wiping earlier, knickers have been clean since an more when wiping, I grabbed a test tonight and may do one in the morning if I have no more spotting!

My periods were lighter at first for 4-5 months after stopping the pill and lasted 2-3 days rather than 6-7, then settled I also once skipped a period for no reason to, GP just said it was stressed, but I had no great stressed at the time,
Don't know if any of that reassures you but wanted to ensure you that sometimes periods/cycles can change if vary, lots of contributing factors there xx

Well my spotting has gone completely today but bfn when I tested, don't know what's going on

Thanks. Stress is a funny thing isn’t it. I suppose the body is TRYING to get pregnant, so it knows what it’s doing.
Here are my last cycles since Jan.
I was kind of ok with 38 but 43 (and counting) seems worrying. I don’t know what could be wrong if there are no cysts on my ovaries.

@anotherscroller I completely get the worries! Maybe ask GP for blood tests to check thyroid and things that can affect cycles

Ladies, I think I’m going to take a break from MN. I’m seeing the fertility doc tomorrow so I’m going to try the ‘leave it to the professionals’ route for a bit and stop trying to work everything out myself. It’s making me very stressed and upset.
Thanks so much for all your support, this thread has been lovely.
good luck to those still to test

Best of luck to you @anotherscroller xxx
