Waiting for High Hopes too! Xx

ClaireSunflower · 01/06/2016 19:38

Haha we're all on tenterhooks here!

Sunnydays321 · 01/06/2016 18:44

Ohh haha, I totally didn't see your message johno... My phone hadn't updated, great minds think alike! Xx

Sunnydays321 · 01/06/2016 18:43

High hopes.... What's the verdict?! X

Johno85 · 01/06/2016 18:39

Omg highhopes what's the verdict?!?? GrinGrinGrin

Cookie22 · 01/06/2016 16:24

Ooh just checked in- congrats high hopes, this looks definitely positive to me! Fab news!! Chapman, glad you enjoyed your holiday. It sounds like a hol of a lifetime. I just love the states! Only a week until your scan, how exciting!! You must be looking forward to the big reveal!

Thank you ladies for your advice/support regarding my pelvic pains. It was gone completely after Sunday had passed, thankfully! I'm now 5dpo (I think?!). Going to definitely hold out until after AF deadline has passed, it was too much of an ordeal to test early last time. How's everyone else doing? Sunny, when is your scan?! Where are you all at cycle wise (sorry, I've started typing this and can't skip back a page to read what was being said!). No symptoms yet from me apart from really awful cramps this morning- bah!! Xx

Jjspoon · 01/06/2016 13:26

Thanks everyone for the welcomes :). I got AF last night!!! Very relieved that it means hopefully everything will start working as it should (doubt I'll be so happy next time lol). Means my cycle since bfb was only 26 days but guess it'll start to get back more regularly now. I always thought I wanted to not track things too much and wait for it to happen naturally but I'm already considering getting some ovulation tests now haha! Congrats to those with positive tests so far, fingers crossed for you this month!

marmitetoast1 · 01/06/2016 13:14

Awh highhopes I can imagine and I'm sure I'd be the same. Don't think I'd be able to concentrate at work for the rest of the day! V exciting, everything crossed for you!

HighHopes16 · 01/06/2016 13:08

I went to the local garage on my lunch but they didn't have any, I'm starting to feel really anxious for some reason!! Sad
Thinking of all the ways I can tell DH if it's a definite positive eeeek!

marmitetoast1 · 01/06/2016 13:04

Ah highhopes that looks v hopeful!
Agree re willpower - if it was me I'd be going out at lunch to buy one and poas at work!!

Johno85 · 01/06/2016 12:34

High hopes how are you holding our till after work?! #poaswillpower

I'm a bit confused as glow says i'm 2dpo and ff says 4dpo- how can they come up with different figures when I've inputted the same details? Also had a bbt dip to cover line this morning so now worried I didn't catch the egg. Hoping it will go back up tomorrow X

ClaireSunflower · 01/06/2016 11:43

Highhopes that is looking really hopeful! I see a line so hopefully a frer will pick up a stronger one! Good luck Grin

Purple- that's a great opk! Get on it! Haha

Purpleviola14 · 01/06/2016 10:12

Thanks Lou, poor DH haha.
Arghh high that looks like a positive to me too! Come on girl! Xx

HighHopes16 · 01/06/2016 10:03

I will get some more tests on my way home from work arghh!! Shock

Loulabelle1990 · 01/06/2016 07:54

Welcome back chapman! Sorry about your sickness on the plane. Hope your ok now though! And also hope the jet lag doesn't last too long! You'll have to show us a pic of your little baby once you have it :)

Purple that's a lovely positive! Get as much in as you can and catch that egg!

High that looks like a definite positive to me! Can you do it on a FRER or CB digital?? How exciting, congratulations! xxx

Sunnydays321 · 01/06/2016 07:09

Ahh high hopes I can definitely see something! I didn't even get a squinty little line on a cheap stick til 13dpo... But I got a really strong line on a superdrug early at 9dpo! Can you wee on a better stick? Please haha! X

HighHopes16 · 01/06/2016 06:33

Ok so I poas this morning after my (possible implantation) bleeding at the weekend and I'm sure I can see a faint second line? Shock

Morning dolls!!
I am back from my holiday and able to catch up on eeeeeverythjng! Have been awake since half 2 due to jet lag - lovely! Think I've had like 7 hours sleep in 2 days but that's the joys of travelling! Was also sick 3 times on the plane home awful!

How is everyone? Hello to all the newbies so busy in here feel like I'm trying to catch up all the time! My scan Is on the 8th June so a week today can't come quick enough as my cousin and his wife literally just announced there pregnant too so it'l be another baby in December. No babies in 24 years then 2 come at once. feel like when j announce mine if everything goes ok no one will care but never mind!

Also congrats to lawyered another resident preggo!!! We need more in here! XXXX

Purpleviola14 · 31/05/2016 22:29

You had any symptoms yet?x

Purpleviola14 · 31/05/2016 22:28

Marmite I need to get some more too. They are exactly like preg tests, just test for 10 secs, at the same time every day, but I think they say not to test first thing in the morning.
Ah that's great thanks johno, it's good to see what my temps should look like, wonder if they will go up now. X

Johno85 · 31/05/2016 20:13

Hey purple that is one hell of a positive opk! Have attached my previous chart temps for you to see. Massive difference from this month hey. Time to dtd (you not me) SmileI'm now in an actual 2ww. Yay.

Purpleviola14 · 31/05/2016 19:41
