ARGH!!!!!

Ladies I am officially going mental!

Still no AF and still no BFN!!!!!!!

This is taking over my whole thought process..... last two evenings I've had some really bad nasuea....... Lady bumps are still hard.....and I just dont know what to do!

how infuriating!:mad: With my science hat on, I should remind you that stress can delay AF and cause "symptoms" so that's a likely reason for it, I should also tell you that you need to relax and try not to think about it. But removing my science hat, I totally sympathise, its really hard to just "relax and don't worry" - harder still when people keep telling you to! So all I can suggest it to keep busy with stuff, hell, get a jigsaw on the go if there's nothing good on tv! Keeping yourself busy and stopping you thinking is the only way I've found to stop me driving myself crazy. ((hugs))

Thanks hun.....

i think its just because im not even presenting any signs of it potentially turning up any time soon..... plus when youre late you desperately wish it was that BFP, and then when its not you just want AF out of the way...

I think its also because ive not had a + OPK for the past 2 cycles either....and I have this sixth sense feeling that something is wrong with me.... maybe thats just paranoia though.....

Oh well, sorry to keep ranting ladies... when AF turns up, I'll be the happiest woman in the world and be a lot more of a motivator for the thread I promise!!!!

I know, its the not knowing thats the killer! :mad: If you get AF, its sad, but its CD1 again and it all starts once more :cool:

I don't get accurate readings from OPKs, think I had one positive once, and that was dubious to me...:rolleyes:

There's only 2 ways you can be sure you're ovulating, 1) is to detect your BBT rise after ov and 2) is to get your progesterone levels checked by the doctor. Its also normal to have anovulatory cycles. Its a total bummer when you're ttc, but it is perfectly normal.

Boots had First Response on BOGOF (very :money: if they have the twin packs) last week, it might still be going. Babymad have an online (not eBay) shop too

the only challenge i have with BBT is the times at which i get up which is 4:50am for work and i literally get ready in the dark because DH is asleep, and i dont want to go waking him up..........

Well it would still work if you took it then, it might be higher at the weekends if you sleep in, but FF can correct for that. I set my alarm for 6:45 (which now doesn't seem that early! :rotfl:) and pop the thermometer in, doze until it beeps, turn it off and put it back on my bedside table. I don't read the result until a few hours later...

CAFCGirl

that might be an idea... how long do they store they temp for? and how long does it take to take ur temp?

Ive pretty much got my morning timing down to the last second LOL

Good luck today confuzzled and anyone else testing

Morning ladies,

Not a lot to report, am now entering (with some trepidation actually) my first 2ww since the mc. Thankfully it also coincides with the 2 week countdown to the wedding - yes that's two weeks today!!! :j:j:j - so I'll have enough to take my mind off things.

I didn't do an OPK test last night, partly because I'd run out, partly because I really don't wnat to go down that route just yet. I actually feel calmer for it!

Anyway ladies, hope everyone's well, good luk to the testers, very very sticky dust where necessary and hugs all round
