Any one have to wait until after AF is late for a BFP?

[pieceofpie]

Brunette, what a bomber however please don't lose hope, I know you have read through this thread and see that miracle happen. Maybe you ovulate late and it just has not shown up as yet. FX for you that you get the happiness you deserves.

Currently have chest pains and feel like someone is sitting on my chest, I normally have them but somehow this one feels a tad different. I am having my AF twinges so I know she will be here either tomorrow or Thursday so much for vote. It was just for fun anyway. I am expecting her with open arms.

Bathroom break ladies so have to run. Take care

Hi lovelies,
So I think AF is here seems different though, (warning: tmi coming up) its orange, definitely not red, some pink tinges though - I think I'm holding out so much hope that I'm telling myself its not when I'm just kidding myself anyhow, I'm really hoping to read about some BFPs It fills my heart with such love and warm fuzzies when there are these wonderful stories out there hoping you are all well xx
Take care

Paigies, Ahhhh shucks what a bomber I hate it when she shows her head and all you want is for her to stop. Orange colour should be check, I recalled when I was having my M/C I had orange colour bleeding and if it comes with pain in the thigh or lower back call your doctor that's how I found out I was pregnant and by then I had 42 days. I know you will get it so I am praying for you. I am also sorry that you are feeling crappy.


Today my tempt went up but I am thinking this is just a fluke, even my bloat is gone including the symptoms however I did notice that while I was communicating with someone I had a dull pinch/ache that appear in my right lower side so I am going to do a mile and see if it appears. I don't want to pay any attention to it because then it would appear as if I am symptom spotting and at the moment I need to keep my mind free and clear. I will give AF until Tuesday of next week before testing if she does not come so she has six days to get her act together.

Kla and MrsD how are you ladies, don't forget there is other here who wants to hear how you are doing.

Have a wonderful day.

Paigie's mumma - Love the d*** head comment. Thought that was really funny! The abbreviations can get confusing! I completely understand how you feel. Before I got my positive, I felt down every time I found out someone was pregnant. (Which seemed like all the time!) When you want something so badly, it is completely understandable to feel that way, don't worry. Sorry to hear AF has probably arrived for you. Have a glass of wine, cry if you need to, take a deep breath, and look forward to moving on to next month. You will get there.

Kla - good news about the feta cheese! I'll still be apprehensive to eat it when out in Greece though as I won't know how it was prepared. Yes enjoy the peace and quiet while you can before busy life starts again! My biggest symptom, despite peeing a lot, is definitely the tiredness. I slept about 11 hours last night! The way I see it is we have both fallen pregnant at the ideal time as we have the long summer holiday to take it easy. As I'm off work I don't see why I can't have lovely long lie ins and naps whenever I want! It's a good excuse to be very lazy! I'm not looking forward to going back to work either, although I really want the first trimester to hurry up and be over! Your symptoms sound very similar to mine. Although my boobs aren't sore at all? Just feel a little heavier than normal. It feels weird not feeling sick or anything. I feel like I should have loads more symptoms but I guess that is all to come! Well as I haven't seen a doctor I have looked up my EDD online and it is 4th April!! What about you? I had no idea the pregnancy 'starts' from the first day of your last period, even though you aren't actually pregnant then! Hope it goes well for you at the doctor. I am really frustrated I won't see a doctor but thinking about it, they said between 8 and 10 weeks pregnant. Now I'm technically 5 weeks. So only 3 more weeks or so to wait hopefully.

Piece - thinking of you! Hoping AF stays away. You are still in with a chance, don't forget that. I agree, try not to symptom spot otherwise you'll drive yourself crazy! I think you gave me that exact same advice just a week or so ago!

Brunette - how are you doing? Remember you're not out until AF shows. Don't want to get your hopes up but a week ago I tested negative and then a few days later I got my BFP.

I find myself worrying about things out of my control like miscarriage. I have been very blessed in my life, but I've also had a lot of bad luck and difficult times. Part of me thinks something is going to go wrong. It's very negative I know but I can't let myself get too excited yet. However, I found this reassuring page of facts which has made me feel a lot better.

Hope you're all well ladies.

Hello there!
Paigies- Sorry about AF! I second what MrsD said- have some wine, chocolate and a good cry then start looking forward to a new month and a new start! try and relax and just enjoy the process of making a baby

Piece- how are you my dear? Has the witch flown? I hope not! 6 days seems l like a reasonable time to wait- though you have much more patience than I do! You know I have everything crossed that this will be your month!!!

MrsD- You are so right! Being off right now is IDEAL for early pregnancy...Just hoping morning sickness doesn't decide to set in right before we head back to our kiddos! I am trying to fool myself into thinking I was productive today because I've done 3 loads of laundry and filed my October and November school papers...Lol! Along with plenty of couch time! Consider yourself lucky that your boobs aren't sore- I tried telling DH, it's like constantly pressing on a bruise...Wearing a bra (especially towards the end of a day) is toture! Another bonus to being off and home alone... NO BRA! Like you, still having a hard time believing I'm actually preggers since I really don't feel that different!
I'm confused (but EXCITED!) about your due date...My LMP started June 27th- I will be 6 weeks tomorrow and my EDD is April 5th! I used this one: https://www.firstresponse.com/due-date-calculator.asp?gclid=CKKnpZ7o67gCFYie4AodKXsAWg
My cycles average 30-31 days since going off BCP. Love that we are so close in due date!!!
Thanks for the link you posted- it definitely put my mind at ease, as well! I am hoping we might hear (or at least see??) the little heartbeat on Friday! I will be just over 6 weeks so it's still early but...That would definitely make it more real!

Brunette- How are you doing? Any updates?? Keeping fingers crossed for you!

 

[brunettebimbo]

No updates yet. I'm a bit crampy and boobs are really sore.

Sorry TMI but have any of you ever had thick snot like EWCM? Looks like you've blown your nose when you have a sinus infection?

 

[pieceofpie]

Right here, that's all I ever get and right after O a few day later creamy lotion type one that might show up on the TP. I am not a person who have excess CM, I have to go digging for it so if I see a tiny drop on my underwear I am like Whoa!!!.

The only thing I say at the moment is I agree with both MrsD and kla have a glass of wine.

mild backache and cramps when I stand up or walk for over 10 minutes.

 

[MrsD140810]

KLa - yea it's lovely being at home, not worrying about having to wear a bra or anything! I know going back to work will be difficult though! It does feel weird knowing you're pregnant but not having loads of symptoms. Part of me thinks I'm not pregnant because I don't have many symptoms! Although I should be grateful for feeling well while I do. It's the calm before the storm! My last period was June 28th. So very similar. Although my cycles have been 28, 40, 26 days. So I just put 28 days? Didn't know as they've all been different! I don't understand why you got your BFP way before me?! It's strange! I think because I wasn't really tracking anything I didn't pay much attention to when AF was late. A few different sites are coming up with April 4th. So exciting that our due dates are so close! It's brilliant to have someone to go through this with! Aw hope your appointment goes well! I'm jealous! No scan for me until 12 weeks. It's ridiculous! I cannot wait until 12 weeks. That week is the same week as my birthday so it'll be lovely telling people then. I just pray the weeks leading up to that go well.

Haha Brunette - you phrased that so nicely! Looking like snot! Yes I think I've had a bit of that. But I've had all sorts over the years. I have had a bit of thick discharge the past couple of days but I think that's normal in early pregnancy. When are you going to test?

 

[chloe18.]

I'm in the same situation 12 days late and dont want to test and see another bfn gonna try and hold of till full 2 weeks which will me Friday xx

 

[brunettebimbo]

Probably at weekend

 

[KLa826]

Hi ladies-
It's getting awfully quiet over here- hope everyone is doing well!
MrsD- I love that our due dates are right near eachother! Hoping I will get some more specific info today- though I'm doubtful. They never even asked how far along I was, just scheduled the appt...Not sure what is going to happen today.

Brunette & Piece- Whats going on, any updates? FXd for you ladies!!!

Chloe- welcome my dear. How have you been since posting? Did you test today or has AF shown?

Hoping everyone is doing well!!!!

 

[5ummer]

Hello ladies.... Mind if I join you? I'm currently in limbo wondering what's going on. AF is now 2 days late. I've never been pregnant before but have had a lot of strange symptoms this month which sound like they are linked to pregnancy. AF was due Wed 7th. Still waiting. I've done two tests so far an both bfn.

 

[brunettebimbo]

Turns out I ovulated majorly late in my cycle! 8DPO now. Weird as I've never had a cycle this long before

 

[MrsD140810]

Welcome 5ummer. The wait is terrible! You'll get there in the end. Try to take your mind off it for a while. It takes a while for positives to come up. What are your symptoms?

Brunette - it's so annoying when you ovulate late isn't it? Have you got anymore symptoms?

Kla - It's great our due dates are so close! Let me know how you get on at the doctor's today. Should be exciting! I have felt queasy for the first time today. Not been sick but just felt a little ill. I'm flying out to Greece on Sunday. I am so worried about being sick on the plane! It doesn't matter so much when I'm there. If needs be I can just sleep on the beach in the shade, or stay in the apartment if I'm really ill. But it's the travelling I worry about! I'm not a happy flyer at the best of times! Often feel sick from nerves. So with potential morning sickness on top, I'm a bit apprehensive! Hopefully I'll be ok. Hope your appointment goes well!

 

[pieceofpie]

Hi ladies how are you all doing and I do hope that you have a great weekend.

Kla at your first appointment they will weigh you, check your BP and urine for sugar, do a pelvic exam to ensure everything is right and also perform an u/s. They will ask you tons of questions in regards to family history, medical history of both you and OH and blood test to ensure nothing is wrong.

To calculate your EDD: They count 40 weeks since the date of last period. This is done because they cannot account exactly when you ovulate but they know when you had your last period.

My temp went down today but I still don't have any symptom of AF so I am just waiting to see what happen because normally this would happen and then two day later AF start.

I hope we get our BFP here in order to keep it moving along.

 

[ac2010]

I'm late for my period but no idea by how many days. I'm guessing 2-3 days. Went to the docs today but test was negative. Going back in two weeks to do another test and blood test. Ill try my FRER in about a week.

 

[brunettebimbo]

MrsD I feel like I've had a few but its all in my head no doubt. Slight temperature rise today. Snotty CM on Wednesday. Watery CM today. Heartburn.

 

[KLa826]

Hi everyone! Home from the dr and it's official- I really am pregnant! Haha! I was still in disbelief but she did a sonogram (internal- too early to see anything with abdominal) and the nugget is there with a 105bpm heartbeat!!! We could just barely see the little flicker and have to go back in 2 weeks for another sonogram for more accurate dating. Dr said everything looks great though- minus the 3cm fibroid I have on my uterus. She said it could have been causing my heavy periods and severe cramping but that I don't really need to worry about it... Just no strenuous activity and (big time bummer here...) no sex! I feel bad for my poor DH!!! Going for my bloodwork tomorrow and will see the dr again in 4weeks. They told me they will have a more accurate EDD after the next sonogram but for now its around 4/3-4/4!!! Could be the same as yours, MrsD!!!

Glad to hear everyone is safe from the witch so far and welcome to the new ladies!
Piece- FXd this month is an exception and she stays far far away!!

 

[brunettebimbo]

Congratulations KLa!!

 

[5ummer]

Thanks Mrs D. My symptoms since ovulation have been...

Head cold - blocked ears and nose and sneezing

Headache

Feeling really hot for the first week after O. Kept burning up and make face would sweat.

Need to urinate more frequently

Keep burping/belching

Emotional

Overly tired

Had a few spots on my back/shoulders and even one on my forearm - I don't usually get spots

Getting full up quicker and not able to finish my meals which is unusual for me

Feeling nauseous/travel sick

Stomach cramps

AF is now 2 full days late

I think that covers most of it.

Congratulations to all you lucky ladies who've recently got your BFPs! How exciting!
