Despite light bleeding for 2 days, so probs period, still have metallic taste. Did clear blue today (not digital) and faintest of faint lines, as in I could easily be imagining it. Thing is, my imaginary line is slightly off centre, just to the left of centre in fact. Are positive lines always in the middle? This one is probably evaporation anyway.

LovelyMonster · 26/09/2008 18:13

hi all!

Just sitting down enjoying a nice vodka and coke after a hard days work. lovely.

Congrats MrsMcJ!!!! Fantastic news!

Littlemiss - also good news for you! I have one word for you when DP gets in.....pounce!!!

Yellow - Wow..... a bit odd that line is off centre thou??? But you never know...... fingers and toes crossed for you!

Well I think I am OV this weekend. BD last night and now DH has gone to Berlin for the marathon (crazy I know). So will be pouncing on him when he gets home monday (and have told him no ..er...self relief...while away!!!!!!) So Im going into this cycle with no great expectations. But stranger thing have happened...

Hope everyone is going to have a lovely weekend!

LovelyMonster · 26/09/2008 18:16

Oh, and yellow, keep us updated!

yellowflowers · 26/09/2008 18:18

will do, though I do have to hold it up to light to see it so is more likely an evaporation line. besides, my period has started hasn't it.... gah! I feel like I need a week in the loony bin.

LovelyMonster · 26/09/2008 18:49

Is your AF normally like how it has been the last couple of days?? maybe test again tomorrow? Some women do have bleeding around normal AF time....

bamboostalks · 26/09/2008 19:14

Congrats to all pregnant ladies. I am out of this too, AF today clomid and IUI now. Fingers crossed. Good Luck to everyone else.

littlemissmischief · 26/09/2008 20:29

Funkybumps - Good luck for when you test hun, hope the old witch stays away x

Yellowflowers - Sorry your in limbo hun, hope you get a line if you test again x

Lovelymonster - mmm Vodka & Coke can I have one Hope you caught the right time while you had dp around x

Bamboostalks - Sorry AF turned up Good luck for next month.

Well did another ov test just to make sure and I think it was defo a postive so I did pounce on DP when he got in and hope we caught! Im a bit gutted tho as i thought i ovulated a while ago and now have to wait atleast 14 days will be worth it though if I am pg. Has anyone had such long cycles (will be 48 days if correct) and still concieved? x

Tinker1980 · 26/09/2008 20:48

Hope you get another darker line Yellowflowers!
Sorry to all those who've been caught by AF.

I'm just sitting around waiting for AF as missed too many opportunities this month due to horrible sickness bug.

99% sure I'll be joining those hopping over to July thread. Hope not to see too many of you over there!! Good luck to all those on the wait!

Waiting2Exhale · 26/09/2008 22:20

Jools1 · 26/09/2008 22:23

Still hoping for great things for you ladies

Lurking and sprinkling copious quantities of babydust round the thread

VickyJane77 · 27/09/2008 10:30

Good morning all, I did a test this morning at 5.40 am!!! I wanted to use FMU and I was desperate, so I did it waited a minute saw no line so went back to bed. I woke up half an hour later, realised it was a boots cheapy and needed to wait three minute, so went back to check it and sure enough there was a BFP, if a little faint. I'm going to use my freebie from clearblue tomorrow to double check.x

dinkyboysmum · 27/09/2008 11:32

sorry, have been AFK for a while, have reread thread...congrats on the BFPs so far..hopefully more'll be joining you soon. I'm still waiting for + OPK,think i'm around CD21 now, so like you litlemiss, thinking it'll be a longer cycle (although i have now had 3 reflexology sessions, which was suppose to 'bring it on').

MrsMcJnr · 27/09/2008 14:51

Thank you all for your good wishes the line is still very faint but it?s there! I was trying to think of a good way to tell DH because last time I just waved the stick in his face at 4.30am! so I made him a G&T and broke the news as he fed DS his supper. DH was in shock said ?seriously? Really?? about 10 times so I showed him the tests and then he said ?is it mine?? ? he said he couldn?t remember getting up to much recently!

Ah Waiting ? sorry hon, (if it is AF that is) sending hugs. Thank you for your lovely words that was so sweet x

Wishing & Lollysmum ? hope those lines have got stronger! I?m now in the same boat as you were?..

Yellowflowers ? sounding intriguing with you! My gut feeling is that you are pg hon

So Funkybumps?? By the way, its an old wives tale about doing it too much, the sperm production meets the demand, if anything, you?re getting the best ?boys? the more you do it!

Verykeen, Dinkyboysmum, Lilypie & Lovelymonster? keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppp dancing!

Fingers crossed you?ve done enough for this cycle Rosylee

Littlemissmischief ? thanks hon all your symptoms do sound good, hang in there. Just read your next post, congrats on the +ive OPK Your cycles sound a bit erratic, have you thought about charting your temps etc to see what they are doing so you can spot a pattern?

Fabulous!!!!! Fantastic!!! Congrats!! Vickyjane

Sorry Bamboostalks, all the very best with the IVF and keep us posted x

Thanks Tinker and Mintchocaddict

Mind if I hang around until the line gets darker??.?

VeryKeenForABean · 28/09/2008 10:39

Thanks for welcoming me guys! Congratulations to those with those amazing BFPs!! Fingers crossed for everyone else xx

funkybumps · 28/09/2008 10:39

well, got ultra excited yesterday as I was officially a day late but got up this morning to find my AF has just started so I'm officially out for this month.

Never mind. I was feeling a bit down but an old friend hs phoned and invited me to her hen night next week so looking forward to being able to have a drink with her now at least

I am soooo happy for all the ladies who are getting BFPs and faint BFPs. Well done, girls !! I will keep checking back on this thread for more good news but I guess I should be going over to the July thread now in preperation for doing it all over again.

Tinker1980 · 28/09/2008 10:43

Decided to test yesterday as there has been no sign of the wicked witch and got a BFN. I was going to test again today as the test I got was 50mui, but I had a temp drop this morning . I'm just awaiting AF now.

Hello all,

Firstly, congrats MrsMcJnr, great news

Inevitably (after being unwell and not BDing much) AF turned up yesterday, a day earlier than expected tho'.

I just wanted to say good luck to those of you who are still in for a June baby but I'm going over to join the July thread that yellowflowers has started.

I will still keep watching this thread for any news tho' - so all the best.

yellowflowers · 28/09/2008 14:19

I am in a foul mood today and have already cried twice. Yesterday I felt sick and was dry retching. Today my boobs hurt. Yet I am a proper heavy period now so def not pregnant. I feel like I am going mad thinking I am every month. Help.

dinkyboysmum · 28/09/2008 15:40

yellowflowers · 28/09/2008 16:12

Hi dinkyboysmum - well I have pcos but tests show I ovulate every month and I have a period every month so my specialist wants me to try for 6 months first then will give me appt. We've been officially trying since June but since last Oct in terms of not using contraception (but not counting days and not living together then so not having huge amounts of sex).

Tinker1980 · 28/09/2008 18:40

AF is most definatley due. So have decided to look back at all my fertility info. I have found that I have an avg cd of 27 but I ovulate on day 17-18 which gives me a short luteal cycle. I never knew about until this today. This has prompted me to look back to the times I was pregnant. I have noticed that these were times when I had been taking preg multi vits instead of just folic acid. Luckily I have started taking my multi vits for this cycle, even though I ovulated on day 17 Af is late giving me a longer lp.

littlemissmischief good luck with the tww, I hope this is the month for you.

yellowflowers and mamamimi sorry to hear about AF.

Verykeanforabean Welcome, I have my fingers crossed for you.

vickyjane congrats on the BFP

yellowflowers · 28/09/2008 19:57

Hi,

I'm still on period but did another test today and the faintest of faint lines on a clear blue non digital. Am guessing if it is positive it's a cp that is ending as am on normal heavy period. Will do one with first wee tomorrow too just to check but it really is faint - I don't have to hold up to light but it is seriously barely there. I would take heart though, if also a line tomorrow, that our sperm and egg does work, just this one didn't stick.
