Trying for a 2017 Baby

Hi Ladies,

I have not been on the forum for a while (looots of stuff going on), but this night I decided to come and read about how everyone is doing, only to discover that yes, 2016 has come and gone

A cycle (or two, I'm not sure which was which anymore), I had a very confusing experience. Flow didn't come when expected, then a sudden spotting (6 days) and went to have it checked out. The doctor spotted (3rd day spotting) a stimulated follicle, and suggested that I test for ovulation and BD. I got very faint positive (described by the test leaflet as negative) and none after 2 days.

2 days later I started a very faint spot, which carried on for a week, then Flow started.

I then started to use my first cycle of Fertomid and it went like this:

CD4-8 : Fertomid
CD14 : Doc spotted 3 stimulated little promises, and I am sure I saw a 4th one!
CD15: Ovulation test gave me the clearest positive I have ever seen. (Clearly I needed a boost in that department )
CD 27: Very faint brown spotting
CD 28+: Spotting increased but still liner-little.
CD 30 (yesterday) and still spotting but now with pink and a negative result.

Other things is itchy nips, flatulence, slight cramping and headaches. I'm set on believing that this is what implantation feels like, but I don't know

I was pretty much on my knees in front of the toilet eyeing this test from various angles. Hoping that perhaps it's the light reflection, and of course totally ignoring the very dark and only solid test line


I'm not sure if I attached the picture properly, but I feel like this guy now.

Hi Anzel,

I'm just here to send you a hug and a prayer. Reading your story... I am so sorry that you had to go through something like this. I have no words other than to say that I will keep you and my family in my prayers.
We share in your pain, and will rejoice with you when God sends your Rainbow baby.

@Nikita, hope you feel better soon! its not nice at all feeling under the weather, i had the worst earache yesterday and today its gone again

If no AF by the 1st June then I will test again, will try to stick to what the Gynae suggested and test then again.
Its just so mind blowing to feel the way we do and not know whats going on... its driving me insane, right now my bbs feels like it wants to explode!

Hi Ladies,

@Anzel - I really don't like being sick, but who does lol.
Have you had a + opk? I actually checked my basic ovulation dates on my previous cycles and that helped a bit, I know that my ovulation dates are anywhere between CD 9 - 13. Still have to pin point it but it helps lol

@Liza - It is horrible that AF symptoms and BFP symptoms are so similar

@Annabelle - have you tested again?

AFM- CD 25 DPO don't know. Still feeling sick and my arms feel numb lol, still normal AF symptoms - sore boobies, moody.
AF should arrive on CD 27, but she has a mind of her own so I can expect her anywhere from today.

Hi Ladies,

How have all of you been?
@Anzel: Sending strength your way, how is your OPK looking today?
@Nikita: hope you are feeling better?

AFM: CD33, expected AF yesterday (last cycle was 31 days so assumed this cycle would also be) I just dont know whats going on this month, took a test on CD29 BFN! Still experiencing discomfort in my lower abdomen (same as the mittelschmerz, this has been weird as i thought it only occurred with ovulation) / backache / earache / sore throat / tender boobs. I still think I'm out for this month though and that the witch is just painfully taking her own time cruising in

Morning Ladies!

Is it just me or is the thread really quiet? Hope you all are Bding away!!!

@ Nikita i am expecting AF to arrive on Thursday. I have no discharge as yet i usually start getting it about 4 days before AF. Definitely not getting my hopes up as i don't even know if we bd on the right days. Things are so hectic that i haven't been tracking my cycles. If it wasn't for FF then i wouldn't even have know that AF is almost due.

CD27 for me today. The usual symptoms of headache, twinges in my lower bladder area , nausea, frequent urination and sore boobies

@ Anzel after my MC it took about a week for my levels to get to 0.

Good morning, ladies

@Nikita - Good to hear from you, hun! I am doing well emotionally and physically. Just frustrated are my powerlessness in the situation. I am CD 12 today, still gearing up for ovulation, I suppose, as my OPK looks the same as yesterday and my CM is still creamy. So sorry to hear that you are sick - It's a terrible time of the year to be sick, really! Hope you feel better soon.

AFM, CD 12, still negative OPK, but creamy CM, so I suppose my body is starting to gear up for ovulation. I have ovary cramping on my right and left side and my lower back hurts, so I know it is just a matter of time. I decided to stop stressing and worrying about everything and just let it be. What will be will be.

Hope the rest of you are doing well? Any good news yet?
