Ok, just an update. Its been 7 weeks sonce my miscarriage but I have finally come on my period. Not good in the 'am I pregs' state but I kinda knew that anyways by now. I have been BBT charting and it is fab! From my temps I knew I wasn't pregs and that stopped me obsessing and I have been alot happier and more relaxed these past two weeks.
Still ttc of course....but I feel I got a good chance. Actually, rather weirdly, I never really wanted a December baby so I am kinda hoping that I don't get pregs now til maybe April (and knowing 'him up there' I prob WILL get pregs when i am not trying! lol)

OMG! I am so so sorry for you. That is just terrible, and no I didn't know before now. It brought tears to my eyes.
Here is a link to a forum. There is people you can talk to who have been there too (trying to concieve after loss) and there is also a forum for women with PCOS.
http://www.babycentre.co.uk/community/
I go on there, on the trying after miscarriage, breastfeeding and my daughters birth club area and the people are so nice and its very much active.
I know for a fact that PCOS women there have sucessfully concieved and had babies.

How have you been today? I have been really depressed cos still getting BFN's. My husband said I should forget it and accept I'm not pregs and that made me cry today but then later when I was playing with D (my gal) he said I ought to be careful 'just in case'......its so hard not knowing for sure! I have had nothing (symptoms) for a few days, but today I had some of my usual 'pms acne' (?) and some cramps. I am trying to fight my hope and tell myself 'no! I am not pregs' everytime I think about it so I'll be less disapointed. But hope is hard to kill untill AF shows up! *sigh*

I have PCOS also so it will be so expensive to pinpoint ovulation....I know that is probably the less stressful way to know when my O day will be.....I just want to have a baby some point of this year so bad....I don't know if you read my little bio or not....But if u did u see why I want to have another one so bad.....

What do you have in mind? I can only think of ovulation sticks being the most reliable 'method' as at least you can have sex around and on the right day. If I'm not pregs now then thats what I am going to try next cycle.

Of course, its still not foolproof. I guess alot can go wrong between ovulation, conception and implantation otherwise everyone would be getting pregs first go.

Goodluck to you Shari! Its so frustrating when others get BFPs like 9 or 10dpo but yet you (we) get BFN's but not know whether they speak true or if we're just unlucky to have low hcg levels!

You know, I saw earlier online about women who could get a negative when 3, even 5, months pregnant! Not sure how true that is though!

Hello, I am from yahoo answers. Known as bullsforlife. Well I have been ttc since May 2006. My cycle is now 8 days late. I have tested neg twice with the pregnancy tests. The pregnancy predictor stated I possible conceived on December 24th. Which is weird to me because that was my ovulation date and we had intcourse before and on that date. I made a doctors appointment which is scheduled for Jan 23, 2008. We have our fingers crossed.

Oh cramps are normal in pregnancy Heather! I cramped for two weeks thinking my af was on its way when I was pregs with my D. I only took a test cos I wanted to be sure I wasn't pregs so I could drink alcohol later and was shocked when it came up BFP! I was 6weeks by then.

i took hpt's...both were bfp's. a/f and preggo symptoms are WAY to similar....i've been having a/f like cramps the past week so for awhile i was thinking false positives but no a/f so far...and it's 5 days late.

usually if a/f is late and you get bfp's on you hpt's....you're pregnant. lol

Its so unfair isn't it? I wish there was like this amazing symptom that just couldn't be confused so the exact moment of conception you could go 'oh! That was the one!!! We did it!' LOL

Hmmm...now I really do believe my symptoms are in my head! I tested today and got a BFN and would probably have got a BFP by now eh? I reckoned I concieved on the 4th (although could have been 31st Dec) as I was just so wet (sorry tmi) and read later that was a good sign of ovulation, and then a few days later had low cramps and after that nausea and dizzyness too and now even my trousers feel tighter!

But I dunno. Somehow I think that would just be too easy!

I was wondering whether to try basal body temperature recording just to get a better sense of what my bodies doing....

First of all....I was on clomid 100mg last month....And from the time I thought I ovulated(dec 25-28 based on ovulation calculators).  I had everything from tender breast to nausea to dizzy spells.  Everything I had before I found out I was preggo with my daughter.  I conceived my daughter on 100mg first round.  So I just knew for sure that it would've been that easy again.....  And believe me when I say AF and pregnancy symptoms are 2 much alike.......

Sorry....can I ask what made you so sure you were pregs? I feel crazy with all the 'symptoms' I feel but I know how the mind can play terrible tricks!

Yeah I am. Glowscarlet over there, but I'm used to being 'Crimson' on forums.

Sorry your AF come! Its always a blow cos it means your not pregs but at the same time a relief cos the waits over and its so hard to trust those BFN's isn't it...theres always that nagging hope! Ah!

Actually I believe that NOT trying is what gets ya pregs cos I have a 17mth old daughter and it took us 16mths to concieve and by then I was not thinking about it like I was in the early months! Same again with my pregs/mc...it was a total surprise. Now I am gutted cos I am back on the obsessive 'wanna-be-pregs-NOW' rollercoaster! lol
