Well ladies I got another BFN. I'm a week late. Gonna test again Monday if I get another negative I'm calling the doctor. I have 3 ideas, either it's in my head, the spotting I had was enough to be considered an AF, or hormones are out of whack and I'm not producing enough.

 

[ica235]

Oh man, sorry about your bfn but you're not out til you see red Hun, my fingers and toes and legs are crossed for you that Monday brings you your BFP! Xxxx

 

[Laura2806]

Someone here needs to get a BFP! Come on ladies, we all sound like we have a pretty good shot at it this month! BUT... I'm feeling out cuz I have no symptoms, unless u count very faint twinges, but who knows what that could be. Gas??? My imagination??? I feel like they would be accompanied by some other symptoms.
I only use FMU to test, otherwise I feel it's a waste cuz the rest of the day it's diluted, if I get a bfp I want to see a BFP! Lol so I made it past today, I'm awake and didn't POAS when I got up. Yay me!! 2 mornings left to grit my teeth and hold back from POAS then i get to take the one early test I allow myself. 6 days before AF due! Come on SUNDAY!! (Which is my fave day of the week, the only day I am guaranteed to be spending the majority of, with my fantastic husband! gosh, I love that man)
Blessings and baby dust, ladies!!

They do don't they! No symptoms doesn't mean a thing hun! Such a good rule to go by hun I just wish I knew when I knew to expect AF and ov! Lots of BD'ing though so giving us a good chance!

No I haven't Laura. One of the reasons I brought OPKs is to see if I would ovulate and then see how long my LP is. I will be phoning the Drs next week but I doubt they'll do much until I stop BF. Plus Chloe is only 3 months old, they'll probably tell me to wait!

I wonder if the BF is causing it hun? I know it can do funny things!

that sucks! Maybe give your docs a call tomorrow? It could be that worrying is causing AF to be late, you had an anovulatory cycle, hormones, anything hun

I'm with ica!

Xxx

 

[ica235]

Laura, I don't know anything about opks! The whole thing totally confuses me!! Are you gonna wait to do another hpt or have you got plenty to play with lol I have 3 left!

My plan is... Gonna do another tomorrow, another Saturday and then not gonna take another until Tuesday! If still no BFP gonna get a first response test! If still no BFP gonna wait out for AF, if by Monday 1st still a no show, gonna get a digital test! Hope she stays away!!! I have moments where I feel really positive that i am and then suddenly feel really negative and doubtul! we bd'd every other day up to when i think i o'd and the day after too, he pulled out a few times.. and a few times it all kinda fell out pretty quick, but the day before i think i o'd he finished inside and it never came out i swear haha! I dunno, i hate this awful waiting game! So up and down its unreal!

The tww is such a killer

 

[mel28nicole]

I'm gonna talk to the fiance when he comes home from work and see what he thinks I should do. I really just wanna wait it on til Monday. I keep thinking the spotting I had may have been me ovulating late, but if I ovulated, AF arrives 14 days after right? Well I should have gotten AF on Tuesday then. So I'm thinking just to wait it out til Monday and I would be a week late for that expected AF.

I don't even wanna imagine how I would be like if I was ACTUALLY trying to get pregnant. I would be a wreck lol.

 

[Laura2806]

Ica OPK's are horrible! Dunno why I bought them! Lol all mine look the same, they just don't work for some people! I've got around 15 left maybe more I buy in packs of 25!

Sounds like a good plan hun FX'ed!

TWW is horrible! Lol

Mel I think that's best hun, it could be the stress of it all that's causeing you to be late, could you go out for the day sat/sun to try and take your mind of it?

When TtC before it completely took over my life, it's all I thought about and was made worse when my SIL got pregnant after not wanting children, needless to say I was heartbroken, not her fault but I just couldn't be around her, it hurt way too much. Seeing anyone with a bump hurt. I felt like a failure because I didn't conceive straight away, like I wasn't woman enough to conceive. Then when I couldn't breastfeed I felt it all over again and still do some days, next time I intend to buy a pump and try to start expressing around 36wks, I had probs with my labour and so have been told I may be a CS and as I laboured at 38+5/6 it could be around 38wks, but then it depends on the consultant!

Ramble over! Xxx

 

[mel28nicole]

I'm going out with Friends tonight so I hope it helps I wanna have a bonfire this weekend so we'll see how it goes!

 

[RedButterfly]

Yeah, I've read BF can cause a short LP.

 

[Laura2806]

Sounds like great distractions hun make sure you toast marshmellows!

Docs will probably tell you to wait until you've stopped BF then hun xx

 

[ica235]

I don't think I could ever officially ttc, I'd get way to obsessed with it! I'm bad enough ntnp lol!

Yumm toasted marshmallows!!!! I want some now haha
I live in a flat so don't have a garden oh how I wish I could have a garden!!

Felt sick all day today.. Like when you haven't eaten, but eating didn't help! Had it with my first so fingers crossed... But more than likely over active imagination!!!

How are you all feeling today?? Up? Down? Anyone got a gut feeling they may be baking a bun??? Lol

 

[MrsCorny]

Mel, how frustrating to be a week late with no distinct answer!! I was 2 days "late" and freaked out a couple months back!! FXed for u luv!! and enjoy ur bonfire!! Sounds fun!

Ica, I'm with u! I don't think I could ever officially TTC... I'm a mess right now. It's all I think about!
And newest symptom spot: super gassy... But I ate like half a bag of sun dried apricots and a grapefruit after a 10 mile bike ride... So maybe that is the reason! But my mind immediately goes to preggo symptoms

 

[ica235]

Haha! Could be, could be! I put everything down to pregnancy symptoms!

It's hard being in all day looking after little one cause all I'm doing is thinking about it constantly!! Makes time go soooo much slower!

Itching to take another test already!! What's wrong with me!! gonna use FMU tomorrow as I haven't been using it! just been wacking them out midday haha! Not that it's gonna make much difference as tomorrow I think I'll be 9dpo.. Still a bit early!!

 

[mel28nicole]

That how I was back in December when I was late. But I realized quickly I was just stressed from finals. AF was due the first day of finals week, so not getting my AF rigt away made everything worse. I'm just trying to stay calm and just ask as if I'm mid cycle and have fun. I figure ill get answers soon enough.

 

[MrsCorny]

Mel, that's all I want.... Answers. I won't be totally bummed if I'm not preggo cuz we are NTNP. So it's really no big deal, it would just be nice. But the possibility of being pregnant and not knowing for sure drives me nuts, because we would have to make some significant changes we aren't totally prepared to make cuz we are not "planning" on a baby. The changes can obviously be made with a certain degree of ease, otherwise we would be more careful, of course. Not like knowing 2 weeks earlier makes a huge difference for when the changes happen anyway, trying to keep my feet on the ground here lol

 

[Laura2806]

Trust me TTC takes over big style! Was the worst 9months ever, looking back 9months is nothing but it seems like 9years at the time!

Gassy, nausea, great symptoms! I can add heartburn to that!

I kinda feel *different* had some odd pains today. I have just sat here rubbing my belly telling it we need to grow a baby girl used to talk to Oscar when he was a jellybean all the time, hoping this helps! Lol xxx

 

[ica235]

4 days... Siggghhhhhh

 

[MrsCorny]

Still not feeling any significant symptoms... :/ I was really hoping this was gonna be it... I think I've made up the twinges in my mind, but at least we aren't actively trying so its not like I have to worry about fertility issues- which is a blessing.
I kinda don't even wanna test early this Sunday... Cuz I know I'll see a BFN no matter what... Either I'm not preggers or it's way too early. Why do I have any desire to torture myself? Haha
Well I have the day off today... Gotta find a way to keep busy, so ill be going to my in-laws this morning then gonna workout. That usually makes me feel better. Unless mom in law brings up babies :/
she recently got back the bassinet my husband used as an infant (and it's so perfect and beautiful I can't wait to have it for our baby)... Her sister moved and had it sitting in her attic and gave it back to her, so now all she is thinking is that it's gotta be a sign. Lol
I wanna stay positive, but then I don't want to because ill be more upset if its a BFN or when AF shows up. This TWW is TORTURE!!!

 

[ica235]

Did a test this morning bfn, couldn't help myself and did a first response! Big mistake, bfn again. Feeling very doubtful I know it's still early as only 9dpo (i think) but can't help but feel like its all a bit useless! Will test again in the morning, but definitely won't be testing Sunday or Monday as hubby's home to keep me occupied.. AF is due between Tuesday and Friday (my cycles have been a little off since giving birth, used to be clockwork!) so not gonna give up until I see red... Sigh...

What is it with us torturing ourselves??? Stupid addiction to testing early!! Don't know why I do it! Literally can't help it though! I think I actually have a problem lol

Ohhhhhhhh


Anyone else started testing yet? Need to see some tests!!! I would've shared my last ones but they were stark white, no fun

 

[MrsCorny]

Havent tested. Determined to wait til at least Sunday. Soon tho!

 

[ica235]

Not long!
I really hope one of us gets a BFP soon, I need some good news to cheer me up! Feeling a bit poo today!
Pregnancy symptom?? LOL

I know it's only my first month ntnp but its making me really really want another! I thought i was ok to let fate decide... Might suggest the idea to other half of casually ttc... No temping or tracking but dtd everyday around ovulation? Pretty sure he will recoil in horror at the request lol

Someone distract me!! I'm already looking at the hpts!!!
