Trying before AF?

[xxemmyxx]

He is in my thoughts viet. Hope he is found soon.

AFM I'm fuming with OH as he hid my tests and says I can't test for another week. I am debating to go out and buy one. I'm so cross with him atm its not funny. I can understand if I was testing early why he would, but now is no excuse.

Are you late for AF? Have you explained to OH? I would go bonkers if mine did that to me, he knows his life wouldn't be worth living! Go and buy another one and do it in secret lol men just don't understand

Mummy: The trick is to have the tests so hidden in the first place, your OH would never be able to find them and take them away! I honestly think mine is so oblivious that he has no idea that I'm a POAS addict and he's never found my massive stash of tests. I think he would be appalled if he saw them!

AFM: Really upset about my friend... missing for 72 hours now. The police have finally released a bit more info about he case, so i feel like I can tell you the worst part... He was supposed to marry another one of my good friends on the 22nd. I just can't imagine how my friend feels, the day before their whole life was about to start together....gone. Hold your loved ones close tonight and keep my friends in your thoughts. We have to find him.

Well spotting started so I'm guessing AF will be here later today or tomorrow. Guess OH was right to wait. So annoyed with myself to actually thinking I could be pregnant just because she was late.

Of course this is me being hopeful. Took fmu and tested with frer. Bfn today. Today is cd28. Should be due for af tomorrow.

It's not over until she is in full flow! And of course you aren't silly, a late AF is a mind f**ck if it is just being late for no reason!

Cheers guys. Well she is here just in time for christmas. Should of known really as she likes celebrations Anyway always next month.

My AF doesn't know what is going on. It stopped for like 3 days, and now it came back. I had to take provera to induce it, so maybe that has something to do with it.

aknqtpie - first AFs can often be screwy. My first AF after my son's birth was starting and stopping the whole time. My OBYN told me this was normal as my hormones were still stabilizing. The hcg may be out of our systems but our other hormones need to get back into line too. If it makes you feel better I'm having my first AF and it's doing that too. I have no idea what to count as CD1 with all the starts and stops.

mummy2o - I'm sorry that the witch has caught you especially now that it's Christmas. Maybe next cycle you should explain to your OH that it helps for you to test once AF is actually late. I think that is a reasonable time as a negative lets you know you're simply late and won't inflate false hopes that you're pregnant. Of course, a positive lets you know you are pregnant and you don't have to sit in limbo for longer than necessary! I'm hoping you get your rainbow next month!

 

[aknqtpie]

Starry - That makes me feel better. I am so emotional tonight. Just sad because I thought I was going to be pregnant right now, and know if I was going to have a boy or girl...

 

[Starry Night]

Yeah, I should be 18 weeks pregnant tomorrow and it's so hard to keep myself from thinking about how DH & I were planning on getting a gender scan around this time. Now instead I get to bleed profusely and spend my Christmas going to the bathroom every 1 1/2 hours. These heavy AFs are normal for me so I do feel back on track for TTC.

 

[Libbysmum]

Starry do you take iron tablets? I use to be a heavy bleeder so I feel your pain...it really sucks. Hope you get your miracle soon xo

 

[Sophiasmom]

Congrats Army!!! Woohoo!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!

Hi! Hope everyone had a good holiday!

10dpo and i thought I would take a test.... I used brand that has not been faulty in the past and tested. A few minutes later, there was a faint line. Used another one of the same brand and one that I got from my doctors office and tested again. Another faint line and the dr. one blank. Thought it was time to brake out one of my digital frer, I was shaking as I took the test... got a NO-. Someone is playing a cruel trick on me. I'm so sick of ttc while in a country that I can't even get a decent test. Frustrated.

On a brighter note, looks like I'll be having several glasses of champagne at new years!

I used to take iron tablets when my iron stores were low. My gp also put me on the pill to lighten my periods (before I was TTC, obviously) and nothing really made a difference. I do eat Frosted Mini Wheats which have 50% of your daily iron intake and I find eating it makes me feel less drained during my period. And of course, there is the iron in the prenatals I am taking.

Viet - We need to band together and send you some FRERs!!!

Belated Merry Christmas girlies!

The 22nd would have been my first bean's EDD. It's strange I didn't really do much to mark it. Just bawled my eyes out to It's a Wonderful Life. I really do think everything happens for a reason. I've grown so much this year and the pain of these 3 MCs have made me appreciate what I do have in my life.

Here's to loads of BFPs on this thread in 2013!

Xxx

Maybe it is too soon to get a BFP on the digi, I heard they aren't as sensitive. Can't you order some decent tests online? The doctors ones are always the strip tests which aren't as sensitive I find. Order some Frer's online or if you can't get any we can post some to you xx

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all had a splendid time and ate loads and drank loads (for those of you who can, I certainly made the most of the champagne) good luck in 2013

AFM me and oh have set a provisional date for the wedding, 2nd August 2014, I don't want to be pregnant when I get married so really I was giving myself till Xmas to get pregnant and that hasn't happened so now I'm going to take a break from ttc, I'm going to go to all my fertility appointments and get this ovulating business sorted out so that I am ready to go immediately after the wedding, the wedding night even lol! Seems weird in a way cus I want to be pregnant so bad but I also feel a sense of relief is that weird!?!? I just feel like this is making me a bit depressed and knowing I can have a break and just concentrate on the wedding feels right for me at the moment. I'm going to loose the weight I should have always lost, go to the gym and get fit for the wedding and also for pregnancy. I'm going to cry my eyes out on February 18th when my bean should have been with us but I have got to start trusting that everything will fall into place when it's time. I'm still going to be here everyday and adding comments and help where I can, I hope 2013 is a very lucky year for you all
