ClaireDeLoon · 14/10/2008 18:05

I think that is it for me for another month. Slight spotting which means I will probably get CD1 on Thursday which would be a 26 day cycle. I don't know when I ov'd but I had a 26 day cycle a couple of months ago, normally I'm 28/9. I hate it when period is early!

ShayeraHol · 14/10/2008 19:13

I did too migola - also negative. Had absolutely no symptoms to spot this month, first time ever! So am still convinced it's a no go, but there's an irrational bit of my brain that keeps shouting at me.

I'm at a company conference on Thurs/Fri, so kind of want AF to arrive early & put an end to misery - don't want any added stress!

ClaireDeLoon · 14/10/2008 19:16

sorry for the bfn's shayera and migola

Mammina · 15/10/2008 09:05

still early for you though shayera?
CDL do you have any other symptoms apart from spotting? Hopefully it's not AF...?
Still not arrived for me but not really due for another 1-2 days but boobs a bit sore and slight stomach cramps so expecting it any minute

beanieb · 15/10/2008 10:20

Am due in about 6 days. Am getting slight pains in my armpits but I usually get those just before my period anyway.

Good luck to all those waiting.

ShayeraHol · 15/10/2008 21:19

Nah, about right for me migola - I'm a 23-24 day cycle. So by rights should have started PMT/spotting/pain by now. Maybe been too busy to notice!

Anyway, no sign today... bet it arrives while I'm busy conferencing. How irritating.

BTW - why is it that it's fine for blokes to discuss their intention to have kids, but we can't mention it or our careers get trashed? So fed up with listening to the guys at work going on about when they're going to have kids, safe in the knowledge that if I even mention it can kiss goodbye to any kind of future in the company...

Mammina · 15/10/2008 22:16

shayera I really hope it's good news for you then... As for the career thing, true in a lot of cases but personally though I wouldn't want to tell anyone that I was 'trying' anyway - it just creates more pressure.

I tested again this afternoon , what is wrong with me?!! It's like chocolate - if it's in the fridge, I have to eat it - if I have a test, I can't help but use it. It was negative, I think... well I thought there may have been an extremely faint line if you looked really really hard but couldn't work out whether it was my imagination, whether it was there anyway even before I peed on it. When I say extremely faint, I mean I wasn't even sure if there was anything there at all....

Have 2 more tests left, am going to try not to use them for another couple of days...

Still feel as though I'm about to come on and officially not due for another couple of days... sigh

ShayeraHol · 15/10/2008 22:27

It's not even the trying though - it's the way you can't even express a future plan!

Sorry yours was a neg - might be worth holding off for a few days now (I find the old FMU trick is the way to go - that way you only have to make it through one wee a day with willpower ). I'll probably test tomorrow morning - know I shouldn't really, but given the heavy drinking required tomorrow night feel I ought to check!

Mammina · 15/10/2008 22:34

true..
Will try. FMU?? I am guessing it means holding it in so you only have to do one pee a day but can't work out what it stands for - am tired

ClaireDeLoon · 15/10/2008 23:55

First Morning Urine migola - with your first wee of the day your hormones will have concentrated overnight so any pregnancy hormones will be more detectable in your first wee.

Most pregnancy tests recommend you use FMU if testing before your period is due. After period is due you can test any time of the day as the hormone builds to higher concentrations as your pregnancy progresses.

beanieb · 16/10/2008 10:33

Well, woke up with slight pains in my nips. Probably my period coming. Was in such a foul mood last night that my OH asked if my period was due! I think it may be the moon.

Good luck Migola and ShayeraHol.

Mammina · 16/10/2008 13:15

Beanieb pain in nips v good sign - I had it when I was pregnant last time (the one that unfortunately ended in a CP). How long is your cycle normally? I was in a foul mood last night too! But I am due on..

Ashamed to say I tested AGAIN this morning, just can't help myself, still think that there is a very very VERY faint line but it takes a while to appear and to be honest it's hardly there at all... probably evaporation line. Anyway if I am pregnant I'm going to try not to get too excited after last time, if it happens it happens, but not taking anything for granted anymore. Still got slight cramps though..

pinkie08 · 16/10/2008 13:31

Hi this thread seems like fun.

I am ttc#2 cd7 cycle 10. I am on clomid as no ovulation and the side effects are not nice. I have had acupuncture last week and yesterday and that seems to help with the over heating and she said she worked on ovaries and womb etc.

Also going to follow the sperm meets egg plan that i found on the internet.

Hope we all get our BFPs

Lots of baby dust to all

beanieb · 16/10/2008 14:13

Welcome Pinkie

Hey Migola - fingers crossed! How long did it take for the line to come?

When I say nips it was more of a dull ache in my boobs. Who knows. Not holding out much hope. Cycle is about 26/27 days now but only thanks to agnus Castus.

Hi Pinkie, welcome
not sure beanie, about 6 minutes, maybe 7? (said to discard it after 10 & result should be within 3 mins..) Calling it a line is a bit over an overstatement too, it's hardly there at all..
Just googled angus castus, had never heard of it before!
this WILL be our month!

Well ladies, I have to come back and join here as unfortnately the BFP I got straight after 2nd m/c turned out to be a chemical pg, so that's 3 pg's in 9 mths. Finding it a bit tough and have decided not to TTC for the next 2 months until we have seen the consultant. Thought I would pop in and see what you lovely girls have been up to.
Blackrock & Lou Sorry TEW got you
Beanie Keeping everything crossed for you that this is your month
Jaamy How are you doing?
Migola I so want to be able to whisper congrats, really hope your faint line gets darker if you test again in the morning
Pinkie Hello and welcome

Will put myself on the stats when AF turns up, still waiting it's been 8 wks since ERPC and 2 wks since chemical pg, any other time I never want to see her, but coz I'm waiting she won't bloody turn up!!!

Hi Mollie, sorry to hear your news. Hope that this is just showing that you are fertile and soon you get a sticky one .

Migola - hope this is it for you - any news today?

beanieb · 17/10/2008 11:52

Me again.

Have just spent the last hour getting stressed and annoyed and irritated.

I think my period must be coming. So I assume once again that my body is going to throw into my face the fact that I am a barren old cow and true to form it's going to do it at a time when I really could be doing without the reminder. Today I am mostly hating other people and their perfect lives and perfect biology. This is not going to be the best week of my life

Beanie I am doing my anti-AF dance for you in a vain attempt that we can stop this happening again for you It's understandable why you feel so down, wish I could give you a big fat hug in real life to cheer you up, but you will have to make do with an MN one x
Clairedeloone Sorry TEW got you

OP posts:
beanieb · 17/10/2008 14:19

Thanks Mollie. I shouldn't moan. I just get to a point every month where I think what's the point, I'm too old, I'm too stressed, I am basically never going to have a child so I may as well just stop. There's other stuff going on too like the march of other people's lives and the need for me to be in them which just makes me feel all bitter and horrible. I don't know how to handle it.

WhateverHappenedtoBabyJaamy · 17/10/2008 14:29

Hello All!

Just waiting for AF to appear so we can get back to the TTC again.

Sorry to see the cycle numbers going up. Some of us really have been around a while. We must be due a run of BFPs soon.

Beanie - stay positive. I know it's hard. Are you still planning your wedding?

They always say that a credit crunch is accompanied by a baby boom...not on here though, eh? Personally I'm looking forward to those threatened power cuts and all that no TV and sharing of body heat, etc
