Are you gonna test again twinkie?

No, I decided yesterday not to test, was pretty certain it was a chemical based on how the test progressed. Started getting crampy last night (I usually don't get cramps until AF starts) dreamt about cramps because they were so bad, woke up with cramps and literally five minutes ago, went to the bathroom and they were the first spots of AF coming So it's official, I'm out this month. Not sure if today or tomorrow will be CD1, depends on when full flow starts, I'm guessing today just because of the amount of cramping, but we'll see I guess. I want to thank all of you ladies for your support this week. It's been a rollercoaster, thats for sure, but on to the next cycle now.

So sorry Twinkie. I'm sure there was a reason why your little bean didn't stick, although you will probably never know. Fingers crossed your next cycle is the one.

Kjg, I got a faint BFP (wasn't sure if it was an evap or not) with SMU on 12DPO, a faint positive at about 5pm 12DPO then the positive digital with FMU 13DPO.

Thank you SO much guys for all your input and support, this thread has literally kept me smiling through the last 4 months of waiting!

Patience, I don't think he believed me to start with! I took a pic of me pulling a funny face with the test and loaded it as his desktop background. I actually couldn't sleep so did the test at 5.30am, and had to wait until 6.30am for him to get up (gently nudged by me deliberately crashing about downstairs. hehe) He is over the moon, but we are both very aware that it is such early days. I will breathe a huge sigh of relief when we pass the 12 week mark! I still can't even believe I actually ovulated!

linds, that's a really good idea, not sure if I am allowed to post saying I've got a BFP though? Can anyone advise me on that one? It's so crazy, you are right, I haven't even had a period after coming off BC yet, managed to catch that very first egg, and I am 100% positive I only ovulated because I went on the GI diet. I literally had 4 months of nothing, started the diet, 3 weeks later, BAM.

Just hoping, praying, wishing etc etc etc that it is a sticky bean!!!!!!!!!

Wtbam-I'm going to update the first page with your bfp!! Also, I agree, you need to share your story, if you want to do a write up I can post on page 1 where to find it, OR, you could always start a pregnancy journal and tell your story there-if you do this please let me know because 1-I will totally stalk you, and 2-I want to link the first page to your journal for others that may be searching Can't stop smiling for you!!

 

[patienceiav]

It's a very well deserved bfp after all these months of frustration! Fingers crossed for you

 

[Wtbam]

Thank you! I've tempted fate and made myself a pregnancy ticker (let's hope he/she is a sticky bean!!). I will do a write up later! Thank you all.... you are all amazing xx

 

[lindsvancamp]

I think you can start a new post in TTC number one and just tell your story. I'm sure a lot of women coming off bcp and maybe experiencing what you went through will love to read your story!

 

[twinkie2]

agreed! ^^

 

[patienceiav]

Thanks to your story I spoke to a midwife who said as soon as I get a bfp I can contact them for further help so I'm gonna go ahead and start my progesterone cream once I Ov if my body feels like giving ov a go any time this month!

Wtbam, OMG Congrats!! Best news to start a Wednesday morning with. After you've dealt with all the wackiness of coming off of BCP, I'm so thrilled you got your positive!!! Amazing news! Happy and healthy nine months hun!!

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Wtbam - I'm so happy for you! its been such a hard road for you. I agree you should write about your story. It's a great way to help others out.

Twinkie, I think we will be on the same cycle. AF just started full force like right this minute! I really hate her a lot lol.

Yay for cycle buddies!!! Af started with spotting this morning, then kinda medium flow, nothing major, then this afternoon, she hit me with a vengeance, what a B and horrendous cramps

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Twinkie- yay! Im glad we can suffer together haha! My cramps arent bad today but will be tomorrow. Usually day two is my worst cramping day.

Twinkie...I realized you haven`t put Prachipie`s BFP on the front page

And I think there are a few girls who initally commented on this thread but have stopped commenting, who are pregnant too.

 

[Wtbam]

I posted what's happened on a new thread. Expecting to start bleeding any second but I think that is me being pessimistic. Please keep your fingers crossed for me! Don't worry I'm sticking around, I want to be here when each of you get your BFP's!

 

[Wnt2beAMom]

It's so cool seeing the "pregnant (expecting)" label by your username

Why do you think you'll start bleeding?

 

[Wtbam]

I don't know. I think I just still don't believe this is real and think it will end at any minute! I am also a little bit worried about coming off these progesterone tablets - but going to keep a VERY close eye on it.

Just in case this helps anyone, this was my IC pregnancy test progession through the days when I could first see the line!

From top to bottom, 11DPO, 12DPO (AM), 12DPO (PM), 13DPO FMU

PS. Do you guys have fb? I would love to keep up to date with you! I already have a couple of you guys but I feel closer to you all than anyone else on the site!

 

[Wnt2beAMom]

Ya I feel the closest with you guys on this thread and the people from my journal. I don't really use Facebook anymore...

 

[Wtbam]

I really can't wait to see you guys all get your BFP's!
