    Testing: Planning to use the expensive one tomorrow morning if AF doesn't come

    CS/Q: Question... because I'm absolutely symptom spotting... does anyone else get a TON of creamy/watery CM before AF every cycle? yesterday it was uhm, interesting to say the least. ** TMI ** tannish in color with like, threadish things in it? prob AF coming.

    @chichiphin I really hope AF stays away and that nice pretty expensive test is worth while! sometimes I get CM before AF, but it's not very creamy. It's thick and sticky though. Tan could indicate old blood (brown) so at this point it could be because there is spotting before AF or some residual "old blood' from implantation. FX its the latter! 

    Month/Cycle: 14/14

     CD/DPO: 23/7

     Timing: -1, 0, +1

     Typical LP length: 11

     Testing: Friday! I keep telling myself it WILL be neg before Friday so don't even waist your strips or your emotions.

     R/R: I'm symptom spotting like a crazy woman. I woke up with some light cramping this morning and rather than thinking "oh, that must mean AF is on the way", I convinced myself it could be implantation and pulled up coutdowntopregnancy.com to see based on my O day when would be likely implantation days... Of course today was the first "common" day. My subconscious is killing me. Then I scroll down to read "Signs of implatation" and the first bullet point is "mild cramps around time of implantation" as though I haven't read this before or I don't know this... come on girl, get it together.

    @chichiphin TMI, but: never had tanned coloured but I had some strange almost stringy/stretchy but also creamy and sticky all at the same time these past few days. So weird. 

    Month/Cycle
    : 4/3

    CD/DPO: 27/9

    Timing: high

    Typical LP length: 16

    Testing: I am weak...tested this AM at 9DPO, BFN...soooo, pretty much WFAF at this point  :( I'm weak so I'll probably test again in a couple days...I just love to pee on my money apparently! 

    R/R: I was already feeling generally eh this week. BFN didn't help. Should've waited another couple of days! Weather is supposed to be nice and hot this week...woo! 

    CS/Q: Not much to see, I don't think! 



  • Options
    @chichiphin Fx for you! I don't notice CM before AF, but I will keep an eye out this week since she is due on Saturday.

    @thegirlwhowaited_ Oh guuuurll! You and I are in the same boat. Had the cramping and the pinching. I was haunting countdown this weekend even though implantation was a couple days off. I was a teary mess this morning at the BFN. Fx for you.

    Month/Cycle
    : 18/15

    CD/DPO: 25/10

    Timing: -5, -3, -1

    Typical LP length: 13-14

    Testing: Did this morning. BFN.

    R/R: Foolishly tested this morning when implantation may not even have happened yet. BFN of course. Just reminded me why I don't buy tests. It is also hot as hell here. I just want to be home in the water.

    ...I just love to pee on my money apparently! 
    @ska8471 I love this. If I were you I'd test again on Thursday morning. It takes time after implantation before you can turn a test and implantation can be anywhere from 6dpo on. I think 9dpo is most common so you could possibly be just implanting today and wouldn't be able to turn a test until hcg builds up in your system enough.
  • Options
    @thegirlwhowaited_ I'm hoping it is the latter as well but I keep telling myself that is the slim chance, not the higher probability option haha... and I'm right there with you when it comes to symptom spotting. Example from this morning's internal thought process: do my nipples look weird today, like... pregnancy nipples LOL

    @ska8471 sorry for the BFN. FX it is just too early!

    @chichiphin - I always get creamy CM 2-3 days before AF. FX for your testing!

    @thegirlwhowaited_ I always searching for implantations signs around the middle of my LP. Drives me crazy!

    @ska8471 - It's still early yet, but I'm always way impatient too *sigh*

    @meri-mac - Sorry about the BFN  :( Hopefully you can test in another day or two.

    Month/Cycle: 3/3

    CD/DPO: 30/12

    Timing: Good

    Typical LP length: 9 last time

    Testing: Friday and Saturday BFN, wfaf

    R/R: Work just slammed me and I don't have my extra coworker so I feel like I'm running around all day with not a chance to catch my breath.

    CS/Q: Got another temp drop this morning, this time below the coverline, so I'm just waiting for AF to make her appearance. At least my LP is longer this month?

    @marebear15 congrats on a longer LP even tho the temps are dropping. I'm glad you got past the 9 day LP

    Thanks, ladies! Definitely was too early, I will test again in a few days. I even told myself as I was taking the test out of the package that this was a poor choice...did it anyways. Zero self control. Luckily the new tests I ordered from Amazon aren't arriving until Thursday! (Very small town, I don't dare buy them at the local pharmacy...pregnancy rumours are rampant enough here).
  • Options
    chichiphin yes I had this last month about CD23-27. I kept thinking I had peed myself or it was AF. I still haven't gotten AF, my cycles are all screwy since I quite BC a few months ago so I"m not sure why CM was this "consistency" and it went away after a few days.

  • Options
    @lulu1180 I was also doing this yesterday. I was freaking out because they were darker...I had just gotten out of the shower :sweat: 

    @chichiphin My MIL works near the pharmacy and knows everyone so I don't dare go there. I picked up a pack of 2 in the city and burned one today *sigh*

    @marebear15 Sorry for the BFN. We will keep fx for you. Glad your LP has lengthened and I hope you get some reprieve at work <3

    @ska8471 sorry about the bfn.

    @meri-mac right there with ya.

    @marebear15 sorry about the temp drop.

    Month/Cycle: 8/8

    CD/DPO: 22/10

    Timing: -4,-3,-2,-1,0,+1

    Typical LP length: 12-13 

    Testing: tested this morning bfn maybe again tomorrow  

    R/R: ugh I couldn't sleep last night and kept waking up. Was finally wide awake around 3 and had to pee but I didn't think to test then. I was going to hold it when I finally got up but *Tmi* had to poop so bad and tested then on an internet cheapie. I then went down a rabbit hole looking at reviews for them and most people say they don't work until a few days after your missed period or at all. 

    CS/Q: temp still looks good but there was shift last month at 11dpo.

    @asupernovablizzardstorm After I POAS, I remembered peeing in the middle of the night. In any case, IMP probably hasn't happened and it wouldn't make a difference. Luckily, Countdown to Pregnancy reminded me that it takes 3 to 4 days after IMP to get a positive. Fx for you!

    @asupernovablizzardstorm Hey when you're ttc, there's no limit to what we'd do. Poop or not :D 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.
