Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 11

Also, does anyone else think it's absolutely lethal having pregnancy tests in the cupboard? There's such a teeny change I have caught this month as I didn't realise it was ov day (duh) AND my app says test in 7 days....but I'm still thinking I should go and POAS!! WHY??? It is clearly going to be a bfn!! I bought in bulk to save money but if I just pee on them all now I won't be saving any money at all haha!


I'm not going to test btw, it's just my crazy brain. Please say I'm not the only one! x

ding dong you are not alone lol!!!!
Haven't bought any tests for this month. I daren't have them here! Would use them constantly just to be sure ofc.

I'm not 100% on when I ov'd but I think roughly 7 or 8 dpo. should be expecting AF in about 8 days.
I think your about a day ahead of me so will be crossing fingers for you to get your BFP and then for me to get mine the next day :rotfl:

You are definitely not the only one. I may have take 8 tests in the last 4 days.......(hides in shame)

I am going out of my mind!

AF due today but would normally spot for at least 1 day prior to that. Nothing so far, despite convincing myself a couple of days ago that AF was definitely on the way. I had all the usual symptoms but they seem to have faded away.

I took a 10miu IC test at 5am this morning but nothing so went back to sleep. On waking up I saw a shadow in the correct location on the test! So my hopes are now up, but then I remembered that you are supposed to discount any results read after 10 mins. So I took another test and an OPK at 11am. I think I can see the faintest of faint lines on the HPT and an ever so slightly darker one on the OPK. I am probably completely deluding myself and to prove it I keep running to the loo convinced that AF has started. So much so that I should probably be buying shares in Andrex!

I have one HPT left. Am going to force DH to hide it until tomorrow morning, assuming AF doesn't show up. Today is going to be fun!

Eeek musogirl that sounds positive;)

Well I'm now on cd25, and based on last cycle AF should be here tomorrow...but going by my gut feel, I'm only 8dpo, but yet again FF has just changed my ov date to yesterday!! Which I don't agree with but also don't know what's going on myself, hey ho! Either way I'm hoping there's been enough BDing to give us a good chance.

I'm driving myself crazy with the uncertainty but really don't think that if AF doesn't come tomorrow then I'm 'late' per se as im pretty sure I ovulated late this month.......just not yesterday, you hear FF :rotfl:

I'm gonna go with testing on 11dpo to tie in with my LP. If AF hadn't appeared before then.

Silver lining is that I'm not symptom spotting as I don't know for sure how many dpos I am!

Every twinge or pain or anything tho I keep assuming is AF coming early and worrying. This wait just drags doesn't it? How do you guys cope? Need some ideas please? x

Last month I looked at my home and thought how would a baby (and all it's paraphernalia) fit in here, then I cleared out my kitchen. I got rid of stuff I barely used and gave everything a good clean. I'm a tidy person anyways but this was like doing a spring clean. It kept my mind occupied and I felt really positive afterwards. Tho my OH thought I was crazy standing up on the worktops cleaning above the high units like a woman possessed :rotfl:I can find/reach things easy now and it's amazing how much easier it is having things organised. I've now decided I'm gonna clear out a room each 2ww. that way if I do fall pregnant, I can put my feet up and (hopefully!) enjoy the experience.

Eta: God knows what I'd be like if I actually do 'nest'!!! This month I've painted the hall and organised the garage

Welcome tattybye

Musogirl - that sounds very positive. Can't wait to hear tomorrow!

Lulu - it could have been implantation bleeding. You were saying you were getting lots of EWCM for about a week so maybe u OV later than u though??

lulu_92

Out.

AF has just arrived.

Sorry to hear that Lulu take care of you today x

Still no AF this month and I'm 2 days late? Could be that it's my first pill free month so I'm not optimistic!! That and I had a few beers at the weekend (naughty I know)
