lee thanks for the support but for me FR has always been spot on 6 days early so today was 5. Plus i have been bf up until 3/4 wks ago and for me this is a very reliable method of contraceptiom, Just never really realised quite how reliable till now. Kind of accepted this month would be out, so hopefully body will sort itself out for next month.

I am definately not doing any more tests this month, can't bloody afford it tbh.

macana · 06/08/2009 14:12

ok ladies - my sanity needs you!

I'm only on day 20 of my cycle, but have been bursting into tears at the most ridiculous things (like Bride Wars for f**s sake!) and am incredibly tired. My logical side tells me that even if I was lucky enough to have fallen pg this month, there's no way I'd already have symptoms, right?? But, me being the psycho I am, I go and POAS, just in case. OF COURSE BFN!!!!
Why do I do this to myself? Symptoms v.real though, but I could just be tired, right?

Swore this time I wouldn't turn into ttc-zilla, but am losing my grip!! I just want to know, like, right now, how long it's going to take. 6 months? Fine. A year? Not great, but ok. It's the not knowing that drives me INSANE every month.

Ok, rant over. Thanks for listening

macana · 06/08/2009 15:05

oh, and sweetkitty, can I have that link please...the rate I`m going through tests I think I-d better buy in bulk!!

porcupine11 · 06/08/2009 15:17

macana, I was wondering the same when I had tears streaming down my face listening to the released US journalists yesterday. I'm on day 22.

Wracking my brain to remember if I had early symptoms with my first pregnancy, but i can't remember when the emotional stage kicked in. i do remember being v tired and ratty while out shopping (for a wedding dress of all things) at cycle day 28ish. i am feeling tired now, but not that ratty.

Next week all will be revealed! Let's keep our fingers crossed for each other, and a tissue on hand at all times!

liahgen · 06/08/2009 17:03

ok, Am out, 4 days early which completely buggers up this month as I'm gonna be away now smack bang at wrong time.

fuck I hate TTC

Good luck to everyone else, might go lurk on May for a while.

I'm gone. Boo. AF got me this morning. BIG shock as really thought this would be my month. So I start IVF in Sept. Ugh.

I guess that'll eventually put me on a June bus - really hope I won't be seeing any of you there (in a nice way!!). Good luck and baby dust to you all.....

Loujalou · 06/08/2009 20:45

I remember last time on my birthday crying as I thought I would never get pregnant. It must have been day 27/28.

This cycle I have nothing but it is only day 20. Think its not my month this month. Then I am always the pessimist. My ways of dealing with it all. Last two months I got all excited - and it all came to nothing.

Why is the 2WW such a stress. Hopefully this time next week it'll be over as always get some bleeding before af.

Rubenbeansmum · 07/08/2009 08:52

Hello,
Thought I'd join you if it's ok? I've been trying to work out all the lingo so here goes.
TTC#2 C2 UCL26? CD21
I O'd on CD19 so unless my C is longer this month it would mean an extremely short L/phase, but only had 2 AF since it returned from after dc1 so expect it's irregular however the first 2 were bang on 26 days... hope it's irregular otherwise L/phase only 7 days which is not ideal I've heard!

Rubena · 07/08/2009 11:40

Hi everyone! Please may I join you? I have added myself to the list! Good luck to all those who are poas today if any!

macana · 07/08/2009 14:52

thanks porcupine...as you say, fingers crossed for next week. Is it just me or does the waiting take longer each month???

norfolkmummy · 07/08/2009 17:13

Hiya, I am new and this is my first post!
I currently have DS6 and DD4 and am ttc#3 .

It has been lovely following this website and in particular this thread over the past few weeks and to know that I am not alone It is hard when you dont have any friends who are going through the same emotions as you.

This is our first month of trying and did a FR test today CD28 but BFN. Still hope as no af yet but think my cycle is all over the place as I was on microgynon for around 9 months before ttc. I have been waking in the night occasionaly for a wee and have also felt a little icky when I lay down and have had 2 dizzy spells this week - all unlike me but tbh I just DONT feel pregnant atall so think the test must be right its a BFN.

I wanted to try for number3 for sometme but it never seemed right time- I wonder if I am just a little stressed about it and thats why I have been feeling odd. I must try to keep calm.

Anyway, I thought I would join the April bus-just incase!!!

LeeWT · 07/08/2009 23:27

welcome norfolkmummy~ if youre looking for obsessive and crazy company you are on the right bus. some lovely ladies on the may bus too so if this isnt the month you have them!

your symptoms sound promising, nothing will tell but time now. i got a bfp on cd 28 and then a bfp couple days after. the only thing ive learned ttc is that you are in control of NOTHING and its just a case of seeing if AF turns up. Very best of luck and lashings of babydust*

SilverStuddedBlue · 07/08/2009 23:53

hi, can I hop aboard, please? I'm new to posting too. DD (age5) is desperate for a sibling, and I'd love DC#2 too. Cycle 8 UCL 25 CD 12. does anyone know how to manage short luteal phase?

Hlouisey · 08/08/2009 00:20

Hi silverstuddedblue, I've just got my bfp after over a year of trying. Pretty convinced I have short leutal phase, normally 8 - 9 days. Absolutely amazed I got bfp this month as completely convinced I was going to need help to concieve. Was about to start investigations this month for infitility.... Don't you just hear that all the time.

Anyway just wanted to say I've got my bfp without any help and without any changes. There's so much negative stuff written about lpd, no one ever shares their successes!

Hope you get yours soon xx

norfolkmummy · 08/08/2009 12:03

Thanks for the kind welcome LEEWT.

Still no sign of af which is good, I think? Kind of wish it would come so that I know all is working well but obviously would REALLY love a BFP. We are away for a few days next week and I am not going to take any tests with me as I will only obsess - think I am more likely to need the Tampax!

If no sign of af by Friday I think I will test again. Feel fine today, no symptoms atall I just still have (and apologies if tmi) really erect nipples !!

How is everyone else today?

applesaretheonlyfruit · 08/08/2009 16:54

Hi everyone

I think I could still make April 10. 20 days post ERPC and, finally yesterday, no BFP. Today pos ov test, so here's hoping.

Apples TTC#3 Cycle 2 UCL 28 CD14

I have put my cycle day as 14, although after the mmc it is 21, which was down to the raised hormones..

Have just realised, after getting pos ov test, and posting about this, there is something else I need to do, >starts to wander around looking for dh with purposeful air

Elliemama · 08/08/2009 22:04

Hello everyone, I just did a normal preg test, two days before AF due and got the faintest ever line!!!! Does this mean BRP? God I bloody hope so... been trying for a year now and was just starting to despair... I know its too early to celebrate but.... I can't help feeling a little over excited.

norfolkmummy · 09/08/2009 00:18

Sounds good to me Elliemama! I got faint lines day after af was due when I had DS and DD and I tested for 2-3 days after and the lines gradually got darker.

I would defo get another test and try first thing one morning as HCG levels are highest then. Good Luck x x x x

applesaretheonlyfruit · 09/08/2009 09:59

Hi Ellie. Norfolkmummy is right, test again this morning! A line is a line.

Elliemama · 09/08/2009 13:52

Thanks norfolkmummy and apples... I've wasted so much money on tests tho but I guess I'm going to have to get another pack in. Goodluck for your test on fri norfolk. Apples I hope you managed to track down DH in time

LeeWT · 09/08/2009 19:25

apples how are you feeling post mmc? i know it was 6 weeks til i got a period so safest thing would be to bd every couple days to hedge your bets..

elliesmama if you look back my posts were very similar, i got extremely faint lines a couple of days before af due on clear blue plus. i too have spent a fortune on tests and after a bit of a scare on friday with severe cramping i went out and bought a clear blue digital and it came up nice and clear - Pregnant and 4-5 weeks! tbh only time tells but if you've had a line it would be worth the money on a first response or clear blue but be warned it took a few days for mine to get heavier.. tentative congrats, keep us posted!

norfolkmummy enjoy the break away and fingers crossed. you could bring one test and then you wont waste it too early..

Rubena · 10/08/2009 08:50

Sorry I was a bit presuming when I went and added myself to the list here being brand new. I hope I didn't seem too rude? I would love to join.
Well CD 24 here and I keep imagining things I think. I know O was day 19 so too early for signs I suppose right? My UCL has been 26-27 days but only 3rd af since it returning so not sure if it's regular. Hope not as otherwise my LP will be way too short.
Hope all are well
