How did you get on with your test happynewyearfeet06??? I have everything crossed for you...

A/f came 4 days ago and now stopped. My temperature is still high... Surely it should have gone down by now? If my temps are still high 18dpo I will test. I don't 'feel' pregnant and I'm sure I'm not.

Does anyone else have high temps during a/f ??

OOh can I sign up for this!!!
I saw the ad for the tests( BOGOF in Boots at the mo) and must admit was sorely tempted. Can they possibly work???
Am 8 dpo. Am hoping I can hold out. AF due around Sun or Mon. Will be on holiday at the time. Maybe I'll jsut pop a couple in my suitcase.....

Lissie, I had cramps in the very early days of my last 2 pgs ( both ended in a mc some weeks later sadly and I stress, some weeks so I don't want to alarm you at all) and so the feeling is still fresh in my mind. The first one was so like AF cramps and the second, I swear I felt it implant at 10dpo! It felt like I was being bruised inside. Mad, I know.

EmmaBlemma · 29/07/2008 14:21

I tested yesterday 14dpo BFN...

OracleInaCoracle · 29/07/2008 14:28

emma, you know i dont normally condone testing, but i think you should retest on sunday. we all have odd periods, but you do need to be sure.

ladyhelen, of course you can join. when do you get back from hols? can you wait til then to test? the longer you leave it the more likelyyou are to get a bfp (and thank you

Hi ladies, i am 13 dpo but am going to wait until Friday to test as i have had some spotting (thought it was AF on Thursday as quite heavy) but very early as my cycle is 32 days normally.

So although it could be implantation i'm doubtful as i bled quite a bit.

But ... i do have symptoms!

Has anyone else had quite a heavy implantation bleed?

Good luck ladies!

OracleInaCoracle · 29/07/2008 14:38

i did heeby, with ds. think you are right to put off testing though. you could have ov'd a bit later than normal!

OP posts:
EmmaBlemma · 29/07/2008 16:07

Thanks lissielou I noticed you are 14dpo tomorrow will you be testing???

heebychick this is my 1st month so still a novice at all this!! Could be implant bleeding as it was around day 8... Fingers crossed

I thought temping would make it so much easier!! Oh well if I'm not then only 10 days til BDing any excuse haha.

If my temps remain high I will test day 18dpo. Thanks everyone xx

OracleInaCoracle · 29/07/2008 16:56

i shall be holding off til friday i think. we have been ttc for 3y now so dont want to get my hopes up!

Hi,Lissielou, in answer to your question yesterday im on cd 27, but i really dont think it will be good news as my boobs are sore exactly the same feeling as when im a week or so away from af. when i had my others i had tingling nips not sore boobs at the sides.

OracleInaCoracle · 29/07/2008 22:43

sorry ebeson, although it aint over til its over.

OP posts:
ebeson · 29/07/2008 22:49

Yes true, but im feeling quite neg at the moment, i think we did the deed a little late to be honest. How are you feeling?

OracleInaCoracle · 30/07/2008 07:58

im sorry x

not too bad, no period yet but have a really bloated feeling and a touch of backache. wll test on friday if the witch still isnt here!

OP posts:
EmmaBlemma · 30/07/2008 08:22

Oh lissielou how frustrating for you... No wonder you don't like early testing!!

My temps are down so at least I know what to expect next month now. I have spent ages waiting for DP to be ready for ttc and he wants it to happen straight away lol... Bless him

I am away for wkd but will try to check in fri to see how you get on...

Heebychick · 30/07/2008 08:26

Long may the witch stay at bay lissie !

I would normally be due AF today but as i had an early bleed i am thinking this was either a very early light period or (yippee) it might have been implantation!! So fingers crossed for me.

Thanks to emma and lissie for support - i am hopeful but not too much just in case.

so when will you test emma?, you still gonna test on friday lissie?

OracleInaCoracle · 30/07/2008 08:28

thank you emma, and im sorry x agree, men expect it to happen straight away! it took us 3y ttc ds, which is why we ttc'd straight away when he was born. however, i have had 7 mcs and 1 ep since, so weknow i can gt pg at least.

where are you going?

OP posts:
OracleInaCoracle · 30/07/2008 08:30

heeby, wait as long as you can! it does sound a bit like implantation tbh. and yes come friday i shall be weeing on that stick!!

OP posts:
Heebychick · 30/07/2008 08:44

Thank you Lissie - we shall wee together then! today would of been day 32 which is my AF due day (ssshhh don't tell her!) and Friday will be 8 days past the start of the suspected implantation bleed - do you think that's late enough?

OracleInaCoracle · 30/07/2008 08:48

i think so,and those dates do correspond...

OP posts:
Heebychick · 30/07/2008 10:11

Eeeeekkk! Hate the waiting. Feel terrible today, absolutely shattered and very queasy.Have just put DD to bed for her nap, going to do the same now!

EmmaBlemma · 30/07/2008 10:47

Your right lissie it's great that everything is working. Was my first month ttc so hopefully I will be a bit calmer this month!!

I'm going to Swindon to visit my family, Next wkd off to Wales to visit dp family. Think I'll be ov then aaarh.. We were in wales last time I ov'd... Nightmare as MIL sleeps with bedroom door open right next to ours... Try BDing with a 70yr old woman next door OMG!! Probably didn't do the deed as much as we should of although it only takes once
