Mac I'm so sorry. Hope you are ok Thanks

Cupcake92 · 02/08/2014 11:09

Mac sorry to hear :( :( :( :( hope u get some answers soon Thanks Thanks

poppet85 · 02/08/2014 10:52

Oh mac thats so sad !I went to an epu at 6 weeks I agree with Ducky dr should be referring on not asking to retest ? Hope you've got good people around at this difficult time xx

Ducky23 · 02/08/2014 10:37

Mac so sorry Thanks

How many weeks are you? You should be able to go to EPU if your 6 weeks I think (I did)

I'm pretty sure drs shouldn't be telling you to test though? As this doesn't prove anything. Have you already spoke to a mw or EPU? ThanksThanksThanks

I do, but there is little they can do at the moment. Going to get another couple of tests in (I used 2 this week getting my BFP) so will test again Monday. Really gutted to be honest. Should be going to try on wedding dresses today too :(

so, went to the doctors yesterday and it's 50/50 - I've woken up today and heavy. if I get pain I need to go to hospital. doctor has said to test again next week but I'm not hopeful Sad

best bit of advice though girls. if the doctors won't get you in and you want to see someone because you're worried about something - call nhs direct first. it worked for me and I had read it before

Cupcake92 · 02/08/2014 08:34

Just had an overwhelming sense of excitement about this pregnancy and giving birth! I just can't wait !! :D
But it's ages till my booking in appointment and then even longer till the 12 week scan :( wish it would hurry up so I can see if my baby is alright!

Tylastar · 01/08/2014 23:04

I'm umming and ahhhing about getting some. DP wants to try without the stress but I can't help but get caught up in it!

I feel very young and new to all this ahaha.

Cupcake92 · 01/08/2014 22:45

Tyla u can get tons of opks dead cheap on the Internet. I had 30 for £1.99 or something like that :)
I didn't like them personally as it stressed me out a bit trying to understand them. But for some they are so helpful! :) I got used to my cm in the end so knew when I was ovulating.

I have my new car now :) sat on the drive. It took me about 10 mins to drive away as I kept stalling it! It's had a brand new clutch and is so so sensitive! I felt so embarrassed !
I'm impressed with the boot space, wil deffo for a double pram in there ! :D

Hope everyone is okay tonight and good luck to all those testing!! Come on BFP's!!! :D :D

Tylastar · 01/08/2014 22:34

We've DTD every other day since last Friday and I think I ovulated yesterday or today.

I've been using the Ovia app and seems to give good data but nothing to compare it too! We're just moving into a new house next week, money isn't tight but don't want to spend unnecessarily.

Trying to be calm haha!

Ducky23 · 01/08/2014 22:03

Tyla I used them but that was only because my cycle was so messed up, it would be 21 days then could be up to 60ish days next time.

We DTD every other day and then DTD 3 days in a row when I got my first positive opk, I got two in a row though which was strange! I got pg first month using them but can't say if it was because of them Smile

Tylastar · 01/08/2014 21:52

13 days until I can even consider testing I think! Gah!

Also how helpful are OPKs? Should I bother or is it a waste of money?

Ducky23 · 01/08/2014 21:41

Good luck to those testing Grin

Tylastar · 01/08/2014 21:16

Congrats on your BFP bears :D

Bearsinmotion · 01/08/2014 21:10

Good luck ladies!

Tylastar · 01/08/2014 21:01

I've been told to wait as long as possible to test by a friend so I don't get an accidental BFN buuuut if AF is not here by the 19th I'm POAS like no ones business!

It's strange how if ur not trying and u get pg u don't know! I was about 8wks with dd1 before I knew. With dd2 I got my bfp at 4wks gone as we were actively ttc, so it was a long 9mth. will be the same this time I suppose. fingers crossed I (and the remainder of you!) get a BFP soon!

AF is pretty much gone so will be back on it tomorrow Grin

Me624 · 01/08/2014 17:44

Haha 21questions you're in the same position as me! We're half way through the dtd marathon, my cycles seem to be getting more regular at 31/32 days so we are covering days 14-20. DH is already exhausted and says he is looking forward to it being over! AF due for me on 16th/17th too so we can be a for POAS buddies!
