  • Hi ladies
    hugs good vibes and code, its a tough journey but I think it'll be worth it in the end.
    Team lowe that's a familiar feeling but I hope we're thinking it about you soon too :-)

    An unexpectedly early cd1 for me so I guess everything hasn't settled with my cycle yet. Oh well I'll open my Christmas chocolate now!
    Hope everyone's had a good weekend, mines been non stop but did get to see the hobbit, wish it wasn't Monday tomorrow though!

    Hi Raz, not ss'ing at all, but could it possibly be an implantation bleed if it's only a little? How do you know when you ov'd? Did you use OPKs? Implantation bleeding normally occurs around 7dpo xx

    Hugs good vibes xx

    I used OPKs, last few months timing, as well as what I thought were OV pains.

    I thought implantation would be red/pink not brown.

    Please can someone give me a good telling off?

    Something told me it was a great idea to POAS this morning (9 dpo). Of course it was a BFN. Silly silly girl.
  • Morning. Tested and I got a bfn. Not the Christmas pressie I wanted. Oh we'll. I will order some cbfm sticks and conceive plus and hope they arrive before Christmas.

    Huge hugs miffy xxx

    I'm now 10dpo and my cbfm monitor has reverted to low after getting highs (no peaks) all month. Any ideas? I know I ovulated.

    Congratulations MV! Really really hope this one is a sticky! :)

    Angletreats, that's an amazing raffle prize, well done you! :T My old workplace would run a great raffle where you could win TVs and fancy power tools etc... I only ever won a box of biscuits! :o

  • aww sorry for the BFN Miffy, but hang in there till the witch shows up x

    Well I had more spotting last night, just as I had started to relax a bit, I went to the loo and pinky, watery cm in my knickers. Wiped and a wee bit more on the TP.

    I haven't seen anymore since, but it sent me into a tailspin and we ended up telling OH's mum and dad what was going on as I was in a state and it was just too hard trying to pretend that everything was ok over the dinner table.

    They were lovely and very sympathetic (I don't think I've been bear-hugged so hard in my life).

    So just waiting and watching now. I think it's probably time for me to see a Dr and stop sticking my head in the sand. Been trying to get through this morning but as usual it is constantly engaged.

    Sigh.

    Hugs for BFN Miffy :(

    Becca - I thought you was meant to stop testing on the CBFM after you had gotten a peak? I take it you didn't get a peak? How do you know you ovulated if you didn't get a peak? Do you think you will have another wierd cycle? Did you get yr blood results back from the docs?

    Raz - Implantation bleeds are usually brown. Brown signifies old blood. Spotting is usually red. It can happen the other way round of course - but thats a usual rule of thumb. Fingers crossed :cool:

    Lemon - Hugs for CD1. Some molars like to 'bleed out' until you get normal levels. Mine didn't. But you might experience more frequent and heavier periods than before :( Has dundee got in touch yet? Have you had a test to see where your HCG level is at yet? That will just give you some sort of baseline figure to see how everything is going. Its so frustrating not knowing whats going on. Very big hugs for you.

    Goodvibes - It does suck to be one of the regulars - I agree :oSometimes its hard being patient, but we will all get our turn in the end :o

    Code - I was watching and hubby said sheesh its everywhere - we'll turn it off. Obv didn't and then K-mids comes on afterwards. Blinkin pregnany people everywhere!!

    Leopardlady - congrats on the solo :D

    Pomme - fingers crossed you caught the eggy and your first POAS experience is a very 'positive' one. Geddit?? positive?? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Lilmissmup - It doesn't always run in families. My mum has 4 children and it never took her longer than 3 months to catch on. I've been 15 months with a miscarriage in that time. Sometimes its totally different expereinces. Fingers crossed you are one of the quick / lucky ones :cool:

    MV - Glad the spotting has stopped. I think you have a sticky one this time :cool: Hope you get booked in at the docs ok.

    AFM - Quietly hopeful - for a change :rotfl: 6DPO. It says to test on xmas eve on FF (13DPO)! So I am defo gonna have a very good or a very rubbish present on xmas day :o I will test early (of course I will - I won't even lie to you all about this!) :p but trying to work out the best day. Sat we are out shopping all day with family, and sunday we have the inlaws round for a meal, and then monday will be xmas eve. But friday will only be 10dpo, and I don't think anything will show up then... Hmmm, decisions decisions.....

    Oh no - cross posted MV. Fingers so tightly crossed for you. Noone likes to see blood - its nasty. It can work out tho for so many people. Its such a delicate balance between trying to protect yourself if things do go wrong, but trying to be 'positive' about it all.

    So good that you have some support around you. When I get pregnant again (nearly wrote if and then changed my mind, lol!) I will still tell people as the support you need is unreal. I don't think things should be a taboo subject before 12 weeks. If more people understood that people had miscarriages, then there might be more support and understanding about the whole thing.

    Morning. Had to sleep in a bra last night due to the painful boobs. About 3 it started hurting and I asked DH to help me remove it. He did help, but he yelled at me in the process for waking him. He's apologised this morning quite profusely, but it has still made me more than a bit timid around him. I'm also feeling depressed due to his outburst last night.

    I may lurk for a few days until I feel better. I don't want to drag the thread down.
