Hi again ladies, It seems 2 or 3 of you are fighting the urge to pee on a stick! me too, although babydust & meg, yours should well & truly show up positive by now. It should show positive from the day your period is due, or earlier if your body creates more hcg earlier on, we're all different. I tested early with both of mine, only a day early 1st time round, but 5 days early 2nd time around! I'm lucky, i'm hoping it means I'll always be able to test early, the 2 week wait from ov to af is excruciating!! I'm having the cramping again this month, which I thought could have been a pg symptom last month, but wasn't, so not getting my hopes up this time. My pos OPK was sat 19th, so af prob due this weekend. My cycle has never been predictable! Makes conceiving difficult, and OPKs are a godsend. I hope you both get positives, please let us know!! xo

Ok ladies, so no luck for me this month, aunt flow showed her ugly self today :( totally hate that fact! Gna keep tryin tho ladies, good luck and let me know how you get on

ok here is my story... I have been ttc since Aug 10 and my cycles are about 35 days but i havent had my period since 12/25/2010 i have taken test all negative! i havent taken a test since 2/16 the last 2 days my nipples have been sore and i have this dull ache in my right ovary and ideas on what to do?

Amg... Have u tried agnus castus? After an ectopic last july my periods wer all over the place between 32 48 days and sometimes was not ovulation so i trird agnus castus i took 2 tablets 3 times a day untill positive ovulation test on my 1st month of trying it i ovulated on day 14... Fell pregnant the 1st month... But i must warn u to take a hpt before taking agnus castus as it can harm the baby and should not be taken in pregnancy... Thats y u only take it untill ovulation. It is ment to level out the womans hormones to regulate your cycle. It dont work for everyone but i really think it will help u regulate ur cycle so at least u have a better chance of pin pointing when to bd. good luck and let me know xx

Meg it wont let me post the link but its oncall medical supplys that sell the very early tests xx

Well ladies, my period was due on Sunday and still hadn't come as of this morning so I took a test and it was POSITIVE !!!!! Yeeeaaahhh!!! I'm soo excited now I just hope everything else goes okay. Best of luck to all of you

Aisha- Thank you!!! Good lick with you too!!! Just a little tip, the opk test really do work. I used them for my son and now this time too. I got the Answer brand both times and I thought they worked great!!! If anyone has any questions feel free to ask!!! Good luck to everyone!!!!

Ur welcome megnkris i agree the opk are great and so easy to use

Ok so I couldn't stand waiting any more, I took a First Response test yesterday, and it had the faintest, faintest line, like if you weren't squinting and holding it an inch from your nose, you wouldn't have seen it, then after 15-20 minutes it faded away. So frustrating, I wasn't even sure I believed it was there in the first place. I googled it & there seems to be a history of false positives on FR tests, which disappear from the strip. Anyway, I had taken the test in the afternoon, so decided to try again this morning with FMU. I took 2 diff brands of test, one FR and one crystal clear. Both had the faintest of lines, I showed my husband but he didn't believe me, so I hope it's not my imagination. I don't think they are evaporation lines, because they showed up after 2-3 minutes, and have a little bit of the dye colour in them, not just grey. I so hope it's positive. I have another CC test, which I'll wait a couple of days before taking, fingers crossed. I'll post on here how I go (sorry for rambling on)

Hey ladies! Congrats to all of you ladies that got BFP! That is so awesome! So...today is 8 DPO and I am so anxious. I will get a call hopefully today with my progesterone results. This was my first month on 150 mg clomid, but third month on clomid. So far this was the first month I think I may have actually ovulated. I felt sharp twinges on the second morning (it was negative by late noon) I got a Positive OPT. Then my nipples got VERY sore which NEVER happens. So since then my nipples have been very tender, have even gotten some small bumps on them and seem to be a bit bigger in size. I also had cramps about 4-5 DPO but never spotting or anything. For the past 4 days I have just had twinges like cyst sorta on one side. I feel a little nasueaus on and off. My temps have been up between 98.2 and 98.8 for atleast 5 days now. I have also been incredibly irreratble. So....questions are.... 1. When is the earliest I can test? Any test recommendations? 2. Do you think this could be early pregnancy symptoms or period coming? Thank you! Good luck to all

I am 7 months TTC and losing hope. Any words of advice. My husband and I started to TTC in Sep 2010. I had a MC in Nov 2010 still no luck. I have tried everything from Preseed, Mucinesx, baby aspirin, OPK's etc. I ovulate regularly and no other issues like PCOS. My Dr. won't put me on clomid for another 3 months. Any advice?

hopeful - i completely understand i have been ttc since august 2010 and still nothing i have had numerous test and am told everything is fine just relax... but how do you relax when you see people getting pregnant every day by accident??? I wish i could give you advice but i feel the same way!! i am actually in my 2ww now and i just feel like no point in getting excited im probably not

Thank you amg1219 for responding! It feels nice to have someone in the same boat as I am. It is very frustrating, I seem to hear about someone getting pregnant weekly and they weren't even trying or haven't been trying that long. I am just certain it has to happen soon. I hope this is your month!! Sending lots of baby dust your way! Keep us posted on your 2ww! Good Luck!

Hi Ladies, I havent posted on this wall for a long time and i will tell you why: first off, I wasnt getting preggo, I was using clearblue ovulation sticks, which btw doesnt work properly! second I was doing the BBT (basal temp charting) y'know what it was making me more stressed out because my temps were all over the place and my periods wernt like they used to be, these things made me a hypocondriact .... however my husband had his sperm checked, found out his sperm count was fine but 90 per cent of them cant penetrate my egg and only 7 -10 per cent could, doctor told us to try everyday between cycle days 8 and 19. I explained about the pain i was having during s_x, he referred me for an ultrasound, FINALLY! ... anyways me and hubby had unprotected s_x everyday (once a day) between cycle days 8 and 19 ... I had my ultrasound scan on cycle day 19 and they said my womb lining was thick, but my right ovary was enlarged, no cysts but just larger than the left, was told we might need fertility treatment, thought it wouldnt happen naturally cycle day 24 I got strong on and off cramps like i was guna come on my period, cycle day 25, got the same strong on and off cramps but no bleeding, cycle day 26 I felt really tired, sleepy and noticed viens on my b___sts were bolder, felt tingly, Cycle day 27 I didnt feel right I was pale, couldnt eat much food, felt tired and exhausted, b___sts felt tender, felt bloated and still slight cramping but no period. I felt spaced out, not myself, alertness was low, decided to do a first response pregnancy test as period was due between cycle day 25-30 days a bold positive pregnancy test waited til next morning first stream of urine, another bold positive 3 days later took clearblue digital i was 1-2 weeks pregnant from conception so 4-5 weeks preggo. I am now 7 weeks and 4 days preggo, had on and off morning sickness, fuller b___sts but not as sore as they were more sensitive on nipple area, still got b___b viens, still having the odd cramp or twinge due to a stretching womb, cant eat too much at once otherwise ill b sick so i have to eat little but often and im getting plenty of clear discharge. I have my midwife appointment on tuesday 17th may 2011. The my first scan on 25th May 2011 when I should be 9 weeks and 4 days preg by then. got gynaecologist appt on 22nd june to keep an eye on my right ovary.... Like I said dont stress, dont use ovulation sticks and BBT charting they cause more stress like they did with me, it makes u obssessive ... try and relax and try not to think about it and do it every day between cycle days 8 and 19, try that for at least 3 months then if that dont happen then see the GP but try it this way, i know everyone is different but ive been through a rough ride trying to get pregnant, it could help you too! good luck every one wishing you bumps*

congrats nbetty xx
