33yr ttc#2 - buddies needed!!!

[ladders]

Don't know what's going on but think af just arrived!!!! How can it 9dpo???? I always had a regular 14 day lp. This has just been the world's shittest cycle!!!!

 

[Daisies11]

Is it definitely af ladders? No chance of it being an implantation bleed?

I think af is going to arrive for me soon. Due sometime between tomorrow and Saturday (I think!) and I'm getting some cramps and twinges that I'm pretty certain are the start of af.

 

[ladders]

Just seems too heavy for implantation and I got some spotting with my dd but was at 13dpo and old blood this was bright red (sorry tmi) had a bath so nothing more yet but that's usual for me with af after bathing so guesse have to wait and see and keep checking pad every few minutes!
Hopefully not your af arriving daisies, have you held off the urge to test?

 

[Daisies11]

Aww sorry ladders. Keep positive though, onwards and upwards!

No I've not tested. I'm day 29 today, and my longest ever has been 31 days which will be Saturday so going to wait until Monday. If there was nothing then I reckon it would be worth a test but waiting until I'm definitely late before testing. I can't deal with the disappointment when it's bfn!

 

[dustergrl]

ladders I had bright red and somewhat heavy (heavier than spotting, like cd1) bleeding as IB! Don't count yourself out!!!

 

[ladders]

Duster how much was it? Sorry for asking too much but so confused if it is af, nothing since but if had a bath. Was that with your ds? What day was that? Sorry my minds racing

 

[JessyG]

Girls i need help. These are my opks and i have no idea if they are all negative

Top is yesterday lunch time
2nd down this morning fmu
3rd down is lunch time today
Bottom is 6pm.

Are any of these close to a positive?!?!

 

[ladders]

Sorry jessy I only use digitals to me they look positive but I'm not sure? 3rd one looks the most

 

[JessyG]

Ladders sorry to hear about the bleeding but i have a feeling its implantation! I dont want to get your hopes up. Has it stopped completely now?

 

[citrusfruit]

Ooh ladders this is maybe kind of exciting? 9 dpo is a common day forimplantation like cupcake said earlier. I am afraid to admit that I have spent the day googling about how likely it is that I could still get a bfp. (Answer - very possible but I have got to stop doing this to myself if this ttc is going to take any more than a few months, I can't keep this up). All that said, I am under the impressions that IB is usually old blood? Didn't have it with my son so I don't know but do keep us posted.

Good luck with the ICs tomorrow cupcake. Daisies you do so well not to test!

 

[happycupcake]

Daisies how on this earth haven't you tested?!? I admire you lol!

Ladders - I think I am due af Monday or Tuesday. Your bleeding could be IB, some people experience much heavier bleeds and assume it's af early but 9dpo is far too early for af. 9dpo is the most common day of implantation. Have you recently stopped bc and if so have you had a regular cycle between stopping and this cycle?

Jessy, third from the top looks positive, or as close to positive in comparison to the others. I haven't used this brand so I don't have experience but I know for some they get a dark line like this for their positive.

Citrus, you have every chance! And thank you

 

[JessyG]

That was lunch time today. Will test lunch time tomorrow aswell to see the difference.

We bd'd tonight anyway but have warned oh we may need to tomorrow aswell. Starting to feel like a chore now after the 6th time in a week and a half!! 😂

Well done for holding out daisies. I am gonna see how long i can hold out too.

Anyone got any nice plans for the weekend?

 

[happycupcake]

Jessy I bet your OH is loving this, mine does lol

 

[citrusfruit]

Oh and sorry - jessy I agree with others that third from top looks darkest.

 

[ladders]

Pretty sure it's af guys, I have more now. Just so gutted because I don't know why would start at 9do! I was always a very very regular 14 day lp. Been off bcp for 3 months now and since only been on 18 months would have thought would be out if my system now. Guesse will know more in the morning if goes full swing into af and what my temp says.

 

[annio84]

Cupcake I'm so excited for you. I'm sure I can see lines and I'm sure there's colour in them!

Ladders, I really hope it's implantation. I had what I thought was AF starting the day before my BFP with Grace. One of my friends had three days of implantation bleeding. How is your chart looking?

Daisies, I am in awe of your willpower!

 

[happycupcake]

Ladders, in the months you have been off bc, has your lp been your usual 14 days long?

Thank you, Anni, but I think they are indents. I'm 9 or 10dpo and saw a dip today so perhaps the IC was faulty (has happened before but this time it looked more obvious hence my probably premature excitement) but the FRERs I think are indents as they seem to be even lighter dry

 

[ladders]

Looks like it's proper af much heavier this morning although my temp has rose. Would mean only an 8 day luteal phase!!! I have never before had less than 13/14 days. This is the first month tracking ovulation this time around and so I'm worried I have a luteal phase deficit. Worst cycle ever!!!!!!!!!

 

[dustergrl]

Aw, sad, ladders! For me it was enough for a pantiliner to not be enough. I don't remember what dpo but it was at the time I would have been expecting af. Yes that was with ds but I also had other bleeding with him- had a sch and (tmi) any time we dtd I would spot for a day or two after. I was eventually put on pelvic rest (no swimming in the middle of summer!) until I went two weeks without spotting. Almost every two weeks I would spot until I hit third trimester.

 

[dustergrl]

Also keep in mind your body could just be resetting if you wound up not o'ing properly. I believe I o around cd17 with a 28 day cycle and still conceived ds!
