    So Laila the spotting probably was implantation or something? How exciting! And clearly I was absolutely wrong saying it was the start of af :o

    Was there anything different this month? :)

    Well I stopped taking folic acid because of the boob pain but I very much doubt that made a difference and of course I need to start taking it again now.

    Also I was taking the cough medicine around Ov for extra CM plus using that Balance Activ lube, so could have been that?

    I was also more chilled this month which is why I tried to stay off here and also I just kept myself really busy so I think it helped take my mind off things and helped me relax.

    The only other thing was shouting at AF to stay away and then when I got the spotting shouting IMPLANT damn you lol

    Who knows if any of that made a difference. I think seeing my GP last month helped me relax too. I had in my head that I couldn't get preggers because I have a short cycle and ovulate later but turns out it was all OK so short LP doesn't = bad.

    Thanks for all your support ladies and really hope you get BFPs soon!

    Thank you :) I am definitely using the cough syrup next month and will start shouting at my uterus on a daily basis! :rotfl:

    Congratulations again, you must be so thrilled :)

    Oooh Laila I've been using Balance Activ this month - errr, and I've also been shouting at my eggs to fertilise and implant :o Let's hope that's what did the trick! :rotfl:

    Oh girls, I need a slap :(

    I am absolutely NOT symptom spotting but I have really horrid af style cramps. It is too late to be any sort of ovulation pain and way too early to be af. I am not symptom spotting because I am not thinking it could be anything to do with a potential pregnancy but I am worrying about it and agonising over what it could possibly be :(

    Saw a colleague today who is pregnant with twins. She has been off sick and came in to say she is taking early maternity leave. She looked blooming and had a lovely big beautiful bump. Happy for her but so hard not to be jealous! It is silly really because I think she had IVF so she had her own journey and struggles to get to where she is, so I should not be jealous. But I am :(
  • Massive congratulations Laila! I suspect that I ov late too so it's great to hear you've done it! I will be having cough syrup too and am considering giving up the folic acid as my boobs are constantly sore these days!

    It was about time we got another BFP! More, more!

    daisiegg - hope the cramps ease soon and you are able to work out the cause.

    Love to all
