@Bex4567 I can't remember either tbf it's been 9 years for me too but I do remember I didn't get a BFP until I was a week late for AF I kept my tests from both of mine I wrote baby 1 and baby 2 on the tests 😆 I guess we will have to wait and see if AF shows I don't want to waste too many tests got some wondfo ones and 2 clearblues which I'm saving until I get something on the cheapies

@Bex4567 i feel you! I went into this like I’m not going to stress, not think about it and just see what happens. And now it’s all I think about, constantly all day! Keeping fingers crossed for you!
Still no sign of AF today for me but another BFN. I’m going to wait now and not test until Tuesday or just see if I come on. And keep telling myself to stop stressing!

@Bex4567 im actually a bit confused now and wondering if it might not have been when I thought it was! One app is saying one thing and the other app is saying another so I’m now completely confused. I know it’s easy for them
to say relax isn’t it. I know it’s hard when other people are getting pregnant around you isn’t it. Hopefully will be our turn soon!

LozDo · 30/09/2023 19:44

8 dpo tomorrow which is the most common day for implantation to happen apparently, but can happen up to 12dpo...

So no symptoms we get before implantation would be pregnancy as we wouldn't be technically pregnant until after implantation even if the egg has been fertilized... Now... all that I've read and understand, yet still I did a test, it was calling my name, what is wrong with me 🙄🤷😂😂😂

I totally gwt you..this month i have been trying so hard not to symptoms spot..im 8dpo today I think did a test this morning coz obv j had to bfn..if I get a positive I think ill cry...I just got it in my head it ain't going to happen for some reason I no thats negative bit I'm 37 and feel my body's old 🤣🤣🤣
How long have u been trying may I ask

LozDo · 01/10/2023 08:03

@Bex4567 I'm with you girl i'll be crying too if this month isn't the one, also 8dpo today and I'm 38 so I understand, fingers crossed we are implanting around now 🤞🤞🤞.

I haven't been actively trying but have not been on an protection for 6 months and I know I have done the BD during ovulation a number of times so I do think my body is finding it difficult to make it happen now. I just know I have to accept it may not, but I just got this weird feeling this time that it might, got some overwhelming Spidey senses the next day that we had just made a baby, so I suddenly feel more connected to the idea, more hopeful and I know this time will be more upsetting if af comes.
I'm going to test on Tuesday earliest now I think and try to keep myself grounded but it's tough.

How long have you been trying?

Argh bless you I def no how u feel I feel my body is too old but seen loads of women try in there 40s...

This is our second month trying to not loads...I just havnt had any implantation spotting or anything a few twinges but nothing major.my nippless are a bit sore tho that's about it..
I've been testing every morning...I hope u get your bfp too keep me posted.

Well I tested again out of pure torture to myself, I promised myself I wouldn't test till 10dpo but I have gone from cool calm and collected to suddenly super eager and impatient 🫣

I also have extremely dull aches going on but I have them every month a week up to my period so not a great sign for me.

I do feel nauseated but that most likely due to being a bit anxious I think. Id so so love to have another child, id so love it to be this month, I'm so ready, but what will be will be. Hope everyone else is hanging in there stronger than me today!!

Hi ladies sorry to hear about the bfn’s. I am now 3 days late for AF but another BFN this morning ☹️ so frustrating as I have always been so regular with my cycle and it seems cruel that now we are trying it’s not. I actually just want my period now so I can focus on the next cycle.

LozDo · 02/10/2023 11:42

@TTCgoingcrazy I'm sorry to hear that! I completely understand, I had regular cycles until trying with my first and only child so far, and then I would get crazy long cycles and be hopeful for at to arrive, but when I gave up and ignored, I was 15 days late and tested and got my bfp! You just never know, try not to get disheartened, and as everyone on here says, it's not over till af arrives.

Keep us posted 🤞🤞🤞

TTCgoingcrazy · 02/10/2023 11:47

@LozDo thank you so much for this message, it is reassuring. I will keep you posted either way 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Comet1992 · 02/10/2023 12:53

I was stupid and did a test this morning 10dpo BFN 🙄 af due Friday why do we do this to ourselves

TTCgoingcrazy · 02/10/2023 16:09

@Comet1992 you’re not stupid, just human!! And sometimes it’s better to just do it then try not to think about it then keep thinking shall I/ shan’t I!!!

MissEmily5 · 02/10/2023 17:51

@Bex4567 @Comet1992 have you two had any implantation bleeding yet? Or any other symptoms?
I got my period 2 days ago (a few days early- what I thought was implantation bleeding just turned out to be early period spotting) I was expecting it as I didn’t test positive for ovulation, but just hoped I missed it with the time I was testing- there’s always that flicker of hope but not this month. Hopefully the next! Fingers crossed 🤞

i hope everyone else is doing good too!

@MissEmily5 no I havnt had any implantation bleeding my nipples have been sore and sensitive and had some nausea over the weekend that's it and keep getting weird pains in lower stomach now and again could be AF coming fingers crossed for you all 🤞🏻

Comet1992 · 02/10/2023 18:34

@MissEmily5 sorry to hear your AF come I found using easy at home lh strips helps track things not a guarantee but helps track ovulation I may be joining you in the next cycle

I'm wandering if every one gets implantation bleeding as I've seen loads have symptoms and not be pregnant yet loads have no symptoms and be pregnant

OP posts:
moosey89 · 02/10/2023 19:34

@Bex4567 it's not that common to have implantation bleeding so I wouldn't expect it to be honest. I've been pregnant twice and haven't had it either time. In fact my lack of spotting in the lead up to my period was one of the signs I was pregnant 😂
