Gone for a day and 7 pages to catch up on!

Just got my Pos OPK come on lucky hsg cycle

 

[heretohope]

Congrats Melann13!!!

 

[Kalush]

Congrats Melann! Happy and Healthy 9 months!

Still waiting on O here, pretty good signs it should be in the next few days though, so yay! At cd30 I am getting just a bit impatient. Which is a bit funny since I always wished my cycles were longer when I was younger and they were 25-27 days.

Good luck to everyone testing today/tomorrow!

AFM, I've had a horrible headache for two days now that just won't go away and its making me nauseous. My boobs hurt and my right ovary is sore. 8/9 dpo today and bfn. Kind of upset after having that faint line yesterday. I'll be testing again in the morning. AF isn't due til may 9th so its still early.

@Ruskiegirl YES-positive opk!!

@MzImpatient That's such good news!

@ClandestineTX Updated. Fingers crossed!

@RaeChay I agree; it's so nice to see the BFPs! Your date is updated. Good luck!

@AllStar I have considered grapefruit juice if this cycle doesn't work out. That's nice to know.

@lesh07 I agree; it could be implantation based on your dpo. Do you normally spot before af? Has it continued or did it stop?

@kksy9b We're a bunch of busy ladies! I'm so glad to have all of you to talk to during this. I read the testing threads for a few months before actually joining. It is so much better now!

@Kalush That's so true. I was always 28-30ish and wished for a longer cycle or not to have it at all when I was younger. How many of us wished for that and now realize the importance of af? It's definitely a love-hate relationship.

@burgbrandy It's still early and it seems like you have lots of symptoms. Fingers crossed.

Hi no never usually spot before af. I had to get up and go to the toilet again last night and the bleeding had stopped. Xx

 

[Eccleston2011]

Hi, can I join? This is my first cycle coming off of birth control, I started AF right after stopping. So if I have a "normal" cycle I will be testing on the 21st.

Welcome to our group! I hope it's all regulated for you. Let me know if you need to change the date. Fingers crossed for a BFP!

Hi everyone,
AF due today. Temp still up, I did an adjusted temp as my toddler woke me at 4am so I took my temp then.
Took a test this morning, possible squinter on ic and supermarket test but may well be an evap.
We shall see what today brings.
Uk ladies which pregnancy tests do you recommend for early ish testing? X

 

[pennymarie]

Just got some OTC progesterone cream. I'm going to wait until tomorrow's temperature to see if I'm going to use it. Still have to figure out how to know what is 1/4 tsp and what's 1/2 tsp. But my temperature is already dipping, and my cramps are bad, and my nipples hurt. These are all AF symptoms, so I'm just scared.

Any opinions?

Anyone?

I'm sorry I don't know, I've never used it. You could try on the assisted conception board? You never know, I had dipping temps a few days ago but they went back up. It's not over yet! Good luck x

 

[liz1985]

So AF is due today. Normally starts with a little spotting when I wipe at the toilet in the morning. Lying in bed, daren't go to the toilet and see lol. I don't feel like its starting but I am slightly crampy on and off. The next three days are going to limbo for me, as I'm not exactly sure when I ov so AF could come upto Monday. I don't want to test either, while I'm waiting there's still hope, but if I see bfn I know it over.

 

[newbie2013]

Liz, I'm right with you. I'm due tomorrow, but running to the toilet every so often thinking she's arrived already. Losing my PMA today

Let's try to keep strong and wait to see what happens... I can't test - haven't got any in the house - deliberately

 

[Mummy to HP]

Here are the three tests Ihave done to date. Do you think they are getting stronger? Maybe I should update now? Still nervous

I don't have any experience with it, but I tried to search for some answers for you. One lady said she started it the day of ovulation and then followed until af was expected. She said to rub it on areas that absorb fat well such as breasts, chest, neck, and inner arms. She put it on once in morning and once at night.

She said to take a pregnancy test around date af is due. She said if it is negative to stop using the cream and wait to use it again until after next ovulation. She said if the test is positive to use it for about 13 weeks or so because the placenta will start making progesterone.

--But I would get more opinions before following this since this was just one person's experience. Did it come with instructions? Does anyone else have any experience/information?

 

[mummy2o]

I hate the two week wait. I have another week to go until testing I also have no symptoms for either so we'll wait and see.
