I picked up a trend.

We normally have a camping trip (rally) every month. And it seems that nearly every month AF pitches up the day before we go camping. And this month is no different, AF is due this Thurs and we are leaving Fri morn for a rally.

There are always ablutions at the rallies, but there are also anywhere from 5,000 to 10,000 people camping at the rally so you can queue forever for the loo. Not nice.

This month I have no signs of AF coming, my boobs aren't even sore like they normally are. But I tested last night and BFN so don't think we were successful this month. I can still obsess for 2 more days though, LOL.

same boat here......I tested today and it was negative. I'm due for mine on saturday.....and by now I would already be having extreme back pain, etc. I'm holding out a bit of hope, but pretty sure I'm out this cycle. *sigh* Have fun camping though! It seems every time I plan a trip that even if my cycle doesn't fall at that time, it will SWITCH to ruin my plans. For instance: My wedding and honeymoon. That was fantastic.

Well pretty sure AF is on her way. Started cramping and I am in a really crabby mood, I expect she should be here shortly Oh well, onto the next cycle

I wish AF would just be late a week one month so she stops interfering with my outtings, LOL.

I never did test. About 20 minutes after we arrived at the rally I started spotting very dark brown, thick (yuck) anyway there was nothing the rest of Friday. Saturday morning I "passed" 5 "things" didn't look like tissue, no blood or anything. They looked like little sacks about 2 inches long. Saturday night some more brown spotting then nothing again till Sunday afternoon which was red mixed with brown. It has all stopped now, no spotting.

What got me was/is the pain. I am still in pain in my whole lower pelvic area, feels like pin pricks around my right ovary then spreads to my whole pelvic area and my lower back. I had an appt scheduled with my gynae for this Friday so I phoned them this morning and explained what was happening.

I do have poly-cystic ovaries and have had quite a few laparoscopies in the past years to remove cysts or clean up when they have burst. The gynae believes it was cysts that rupured and passed, hence the old blood and "things" that I passed. They said I didn't have to come in earlier but should go to ER if the pain gets so bad I can't stand.

I'm still in pain, this sux big time because now I am thinking if it wasn't AF then it is probably an anovulatory cycle. I will know more on Friday.
