Hi growing, we are on the same cycle day I think. I though af was on her way as have a bit of cramping and spotting this morning, but nothing since so now Im beginning to wonder? Still 3 days off of af being due, Im probably deluding myself though. How long are you going to leave it before you poas?

growingbump2 · 08/12/2009 13:53

Hi ruby, am desperate to poas, just put christmas tree up and need new lights so have to go to out, am tempted to buy and test but if I buy one I will use it and it is still 4 days before I should but then I've never been one for sticking to the rules! What about you, fingers crossed for us!

lovesaruby · 08/12/2009 14:08

Ooo lots of luck if you do - Ill have to see what happens with the spotting I guess, tho nothing since first thing this morning and cramping has stopped too, so if all clear I may not be able to hold out much longer!

growingbump2 · 08/12/2009 14:10

Will keep you updated, I have to test before Friday anyway as I have works Christmas party which will involve much wine I think!

I'm still here, waiting to test with very painful boobs! But I'm not complaining I am really hoping they are a sign. If I'm not pregnant I'll be going to the doctors because I have never known pain in my bbs like this before, honestly I feel like they have been kicked or trampled all over. It even hurts to breathe sometimes, and gets worse as the day goes on.

Fingers crossed for everyone testing over the next few days!

lucybrad · 08/12/2009 18:43

stuffedmk are you getting any symptoms yet? I must admit to POAS earlier !! way early!!! BFN though only to be expected.

vix206 · 08/12/2009 20:04

I know its not big or clever but I peed in a cup earlier with an internet cheapie and I got a faint but unmissable BFP!!!!!!!

I'm only 9DPO so it is sooo early and I am trying not to be excited but it not every day you get what you've been wishing for!

Going to repeat test in morning with another IC and then on Thursday go and get a digital one just to be 100% sure. Not sure what to do with myself now, DH is refusing to share in my excitement saying it is too early but I can't help it!

PoppyIsApain · 08/12/2009 20:41

You know a positive is a positive congrats

nymphadora · 08/12/2009 20:58

Congrats Vix

mrsZaC · 08/12/2009 22:11

hey ladies, congrats for all BFP's

plant so happy you finally got your +!!! can't belive it too so long, very pleased for you

so this is day whatever... still no AF...very sore nipples the last few days which I've never had before so hopefully a sign... a little BFP for christmas would be nice

thinking I might test tomorrow.. hard to tell as I have no idea what CD I'm on! as STILL no AF after coming off the pill... patience is a virtue as they say.

lots of special christmas dust to the August bus, come on jelly beans you can do it!!

lovesaruby · 09/12/2009 07:49

Woohoo Vix! Congratulations! How about you Growing? Did you cave in yet? Im not sure whats going on - was so sure af was coming yesterday morning but after a couple of tiny bits of brown cm, now nothing, cramps stopped, not a dicky bird. Perhaps I was wrong and it was implantation after all? Or is that wishful thinking?? Think am going to try and hang on until Friday....

Has anyone tried using Evening Primrose oil to extend Luteal phase? If so how much did you take and when?

yellowmum84 · 09/12/2009 12:16

I'm only 3dpo but anyone want to test with me in a week or so??! When is the best time to test though...not sure I can wait till 14dpo.

vix206 · 09/12/2009 13:06

Yes thank you nymphadora x

lucybrad · 09/12/2009 15:57

well done vix you prpmted me to test as by my figuring im 10dpo, but was a BFN on an internet cheapy. Only day 23 though... time will tell.

vix206 · 09/12/2009 17:12

I just did another IC and it was negative, BUT the FRER using the same sample was a very thick, dark second line so I am feeling very happy with that

But early testing is evil and I know that, I am just very weak

PoppyIsApain · 09/12/2009 17:30

Yellowmum84 i would like to POAS at the same time as you as im CD20 as well, what day will it be.

PoppyIsApain · 09/12/2009 17:31

Oh sorry just re read the stats, im abit to different sorry yellowmum84.

growingbump2 · 09/12/2009 21:19

Congrats Vix on your lovely BFP! Ruby, I tested today late afternoon and got a BFN, not giving up yet tho as 2 days early. Last pregnancy when I mc I tested two days early and got a BFN, didn't get positive for another 4 days so will hold off till Friday, or even Sunday if AF isn't hear before then. Still no symptoms either way! Fingers crossed for you having implantation bleeding!

nymphadora · 09/12/2009 21:34

stomach feeling like period is on its way. Nothing yet though

PollyPoo · 10/12/2009 00:17

So.... can I pick your brains laydeez? We are not really trying at the mo as we've just had our appt with the fertility clinic, and assuming tests come back ok, we will start clomid in Feburary.

Basically, the hospital think that since DD was born (she is 2.5) I have not ovulated despite getting +ives on OPKs, or at least not for the first year of ttc (how gutting is that?) and not every month for the 6 months since. I think it is only the acupuncture that started me ov'ing again. But anyway, I digress - we decided last month to have a few months break until the Clomid starts, but I thought I'd start charting my temperature as it may come in useful.

I have not bothered this month with OPKs and did not symptom spot in anyway. Literally the only thing I have done is record temperature and that went up on day 17 and has stayed up so far (although I'm only on CD21). So what I need to know is - is it possible to get the temp raise mid cycle, if you have not ovulated? Can anyone help? Thank you!

lovesaruby · 10/12/2009 08:28

Growing - it mightve not shown up in late afternoon sample either? Last month I just kept testing everyday! Ive just caved - shouldve waited til tomorrow, thats when af is due, but really, really wanted to see if tuesdays spotting was implantation and.........bfp!!!!! Really quite a dark one too on an internet cheapy, feeling much more positive about this one! Sending everyone else dust...!

Loujalou · 10/12/2009 08:45

Polly in TCOYF there is a bit that says you can have a temp rise without ovulating but its really rare. Its worth looking at the book as its really informative. You have me worried now - as I seem to be having temp rises and positive OPKs but not managed to get pregnant. But am only on cycle 8. Fingers crossed it all gets sorted for you.
