Ahhh I so hope you ladies get your BFPs!!! I can live vicariously through you haha. I'll cross my fingers for Tues and Thurs  Feel you on the progesterone Auntie...my boobs didn't get affected at all, but turns out those cramps I was getting were definitely from the progesterone - I haven't had them since I stopped the progesterone yesterday. I was worrying I had caused the cramps with my stress, or hoping that they were related to implantation etc etc. It's so cruel!

I guess in that respect I'm kind of lucky as don't have progesterone clouding things.
With the boobs thing I've had random months with sore boobs and def wasn't utd and most months I don't get any booby soreness so either way I never know what to think.
What will be wil be I suppose. Crossing everything for you auntie!!!

Happy Easter Sunday ladies. How are you all? It's pouring down here today so perfect day to spend inside BC - how you holding up? Tempted to test yet? HT - how are you doing? No sign of AF yet? Red - that's so great your scan went well! I hope you continue to let us know how you are getting on. Shimma hope you are doing ok after your BFN. And no bugs or animals have been stalking you lately  AFM - 8DPO and cramps have kicked in today. Quite strong cramps def feel like AF is on her way  but she's not due till next Saturday so I'll be really annoyed if its early

Hi storm.
Sitting on the fence about how I'm feeling. Cramps like AF will come any minute. Not feeling very hopeful so probably won't need to test. If it hasn't come by Tuesday I'll test before bloods. Had a bit of a downer last night about it all bad timing with my entire family around but feeling better today. Dh said today he's probably going to go to auz now for work(he'd changed his mind about it last week now he's decided he's going again) so I'm a bit gutted about that too but trying to be supportive of him as well. Gah quite the Debbie downer today haha.
Hope AF stays away for you - at one of us needs to get a bfp!!!

bc and Storm - hang in there! Pregnancy cramps and AF cramps do feel a lot the same! I found the hardest part of the TTW post IVF was most definitely the last 4 days before testing when you read into every single sign or lack of and your mood can swing up or down in an instant depending on how the cramps are feeling. It's tough! I am crossing everything for you girls :)
Rainy here too, a real inside day, lucky as sleeping is something I am revolving my day around atm. Holidays are the best!

Thanks for your positivity Red.
Thought I was going to start spotting but nothing yet. Still not hopeful though, those cramps are very AF like lol. Tomorrow will tell all.
Yep holidays are the best! Enjoy all that sleeping you can do.

Thanks BC and Red. BC def hang in there - I'm here with you on the AF like cramps. Had them on and off all day today. Not long to go now till your BT and I'm still holding out all hope for you and your BFP! I'm kinda in the head space that I always am at this stage - I'm not really hoping for just a BFP but rather a sticky BFP  it's weird, I no longer get excited at the prospect of seeing two lines on an HPT! Meh.... 9 of them going no where will do that to ya! But anyway, still have everything crossed for sticky BFP's for us all, sooner rather than later. Top off all of our varying journeys

Lots of hugs Shimma, best wishes with your decision making xx BC, I have my fingers crossed for you sweetie. Let this be it! Please! Auntie I hope your wait is bearable, we look forward to your positive result soon too. Storm, you are on a roll! Wahoo, come on sticky bubba, Mumma has been waiting a really long time, please give her a sticky BFP. Enjoy your holiday Epic. Are you back from yours Lesley? Red, I get all misty when I think of your precious cargo Hi to everyone else, I hope you are well and have enjoyed your break. I have had AF and cold so have had four days off the bike and four days of relaxing the diet. While I dread getting back on the scales it has been nice just to hang out. I'm a little battle weary at the moment, I'm already onto day four of my clomid cycle today but it just feels like I'm soul deep worn out having shoved so much energy at it. Anyways, keeping on , have a happy day.
Oh... it's master three's birthday today  . While this is awesome it also means that we have been trying to enlarge our brood for nearly three years  I had a couple of weeks recovery from his birth   . I really hope we have had some success before next April xx.

Where would I be without you girls??!
Storm I hate that you've had to endure so many losses. I hope this is the sticky one!!
Ht - good on you for relaxing this weekend. Reaching that kind of milestone in the journey is truly sucky.
AFM - no AF as yet. Woke up 3am with very strong cramps and thought it was all over but still nothing. I'm still not convinced however all going well today I will test when I get home this evening to put my mind at rest either way. And if I am utd then wowsers they aren't kidding about the cramps!
Have a great day I'm off to see grandma then in the car to come home.

Hi all,

BC - all the best for testing. I have been sending positive vibes out for everyone.
afm - still on the pill but last one this friday. Injections start the 29th. Its a bit like the neverending story :-)

Everything crossed for testing tonight BC! Hope the cramps are the good kind!
Storm I understand the not being excited about the two lines now, it's so sad to get so jaded but also so understandable. Certain amount of self preservation too!
Lesley I'll only be a couple of days behind you, I'm on the pill now till the 30th then injections start on the 2nd!

Aw thanks for your words HT, Epic and BC - it's been a hard road and I'm ready to get to the end of it. Still slight cramps on and off, might give AF till Wednesday to show before I test. Then I have the specialist on Thursday for the first time in 6 months so will see where to from there. As for today, I am coming down with a cold/flu and have the worst sore throat today  HT I'm sorry AF found you fingers crossed this next round of clomid does the trick for you.  I hope you are having a lovely day with your DS on his birthday today. Ooh BC I'm thinking of you and praying for you. Reaaaaaly have everything firmly crossed for you. Epic - eeek your turn is soooo close! GL!

Oh bc.... I so hope it's a true line!!!! I would love to see a big bright double line when I check the forum tmrw!
Storm, I totally get that feeling. My last bfp was more like a pos opk rather than a hpt. I felt so insecure about it that it hardly meantaanything more than just a 'potential' pregnancy. Good luck at your specialist apt!!!

I'm still not convinced. What I read online says look at 3mins and that's that. The line was not there at 3 mins but was at 10 (lightly) and stronger later after I walked the dogs. Storm I will probably test again in the AM. Like I said thanks for your love girls whatever the actual result is your support means a lot. Here's the photo...
