Thread 23. TTC #1 - New Year, New Opportunities. Let's keep those BFPs rolling in!

No symptoms of af is good either way I think :)
Good luck xxx

sorry for the ones with AF !

I have finally received my FRER so will test tomorrow with FMU if AF still has not shown.
I still have no symptoms of AF yet though when I usually get them a few days before so either there will be no AF or I didn't ovulate when I thought I did or my body has decided to go solo on this...

PMA - will not be poas and wasting my frer's unless I'm over a week late ... hold me to this ladies xxx

Alexia - love PMA xxx
Sk1pper- love you - fx for you xxx
Pug - congratulations xxx
for anyone with af
Think I'm on Feb bus too as only managed to dtd on cd9, ovulated cd14... but got flu on cd11 and haven't dtd since ... d&g... desperate & gagging - even though fw has gone this month....
Still managing to symptom spot even though I'm pretty sure I'm out ... wtf 😂
Good luck lovely ladies xxxxx

Pyjamas - I think not temping is the right thing if it's relaxed you. Besides your probably looking forward to your HSG. Well not "looking forward" as I'm not sure getting our insides flushed will be a pleasant experience but it's a positive step forward.

Pug - I didn't realise there were so many different types of pg test! Is the digital one expensive?

Harriet -

Sorry kathrino binky flaming annoying / depressing but fx for you both still

alexia hopefully tomorrow morning will show some progression but everything else looking super positive still!!!

Thanks for the list jam

harriet sorry to hear that
pug woohoo!

BFN for me this morning despite AF due today & strange spotting during 2ww.

Sorry Harriet 💐** but I hope that means you had a good cycle length. You can join me to keep the February bench warm 👯

Sure kaydee

Hurrah pug! 🎊

I've only done 2 cheap cross ones last weekend and the clear blue digital last weekend. Didn't test this week and then did the dud this morning. DH is still talking about IF I'm preggers. 🙈🤔

Hang in there Alexia - a line is a line, but I can understand your frustration! That's some great PMa though!

We're testing on the same day kaydee! Fx for both of us!

That's some good BDing right there sk1pper 😊** Hopefully we won't need our HSGs.

8dpo here and not one teeny tiny symptom - maybe it's because I'm not temping after ov this cycle - whatever it is, I'm more relaxed. This may change towards the end when AF symptoms come along and I sec bad guess myself!

Just had my first PT session of 2017 after 3 weeks of doing nothing - I am RUINED.

I haven't noticed any real change in a frer I did this fmu today aswell alexia. I was going to wait another day or two before breaking out the digital but needed the reassurance, so also used that and it says Pregnant 1-2 weeks. As they are less sensitive than frers I feel happy that something must be happening if the digital has picked it up.

I like your PMA!

I am not bleeding or spotting.
My boobs are feeling heavier and starting to feel tender all over rather than just nipple.

I drank loads of juice before I went to bed last night and went to bed late so maybe fmu was more diluted than usual.
It's bloody ace to see our names on the grads list!!

That is excellent PMA Alexia, good work! And your comment about your FRER did make me smile - I put mine in the bin and then took the bag out to our communal bins in my pjs so I wouldn't be tempted to keep looking at it 'just in case'.

Thanks for the list Jam, I think I will be joining harriet with a ticket for 8 Feb but will confirm when AF actually bothers to turn up.

Good luck in the TWW Miranda and sk1pper. I'm very impressed with your text book DTD sk1pper, hopefully it pays off for you this month.

Can you put me down for 14th please jam? Will be CD34, no idea how long my cycles will be, but I have to have a filling on 16th, so figure that's a good a time as any to check - if I get that far!

Hello AF! Really glad it's here at last! New bus ticket for 8 Feb please!

Miranda - that's awesome, fx for you too. Remember to keep your feet and kidneys warm as per Kwicks instructions.

Alexia - a line is a line remember. Try not to be frustrated by any lack of real progression, it will happen for you. Your body is probably slowly gearing itself up. Xx

Sorry if I was a bit premature in congratulating you Alexia. As Jam says a line is a line & you definitely have one. Keeping everything crossed that this is a sticky one & that the line is darker soon to hopefully give you some reassurance xxx

Please let me know if anyone is missing or your date.

Thanks for your kind words. I hope you're right about it being around the corner kwick

Really hope it's not AF binky. Do you take anything to try to regulate your cycle length?

Sorry about the bfn kath hope it's just too early. I find it easy to slip into thinking something might be wrong too. A doctors appointment sounds like a good idea, although I'm sure you are just fine.

Miw make sure you get yourself seen, kidney infections can be nasty

Harriet have you tested? Fx af stays away!

Thanks starmist hope all going well with you

Alexia a line is a line, we could all see it. Keeping everything crossed it gets stronger and stronger

sk1pper I'm due AF around 21st Jan. I think I may have ovulated yesterday but I'm not sure as haven't been able to reliably do OPKs this month, I had some pains last night which might have been ovulation pain. Fx you won't need HSG

Morning everyone, I'm officially in the 2ww now. Think I ovulated around CD13-14 but it's really hard to know when you're not doing opks. I've BDed as much as possible, sometimes I didn't even want to... we just forced ourselves. A last Hail Mary before my HSG I guess. Anyone testing or waiting for AF around 19th Jan?

Alexia please post picture of FRER.

mouse yep email them!!!

ns last time I managed to get it down to once a week... but you know what, if I need to test I WILL!!! It gives me peace of mind - although that is silly given that it would still show positive even if I MC - but whatever sees you through, right?

Fx for you kathrino that it's still just too early

That's a bugger mouse! Definitely get on to customer services.

Alexia, sorry that you didn't get a strong line this morning but good news about the temps. It must be so frustrating for you.

miw, hope you're not feeling too rough with the kidney infection

There's a small chance that I may have ovulated on CD18 and not CD16 which would only put me at 13 DPO and not 15 DPO but pretty sure I'm just clutching at straws and would have expected a FRER to pick it up in any case.

I think I know in my heart of hearts that there's something wrong (I have a theory that it might be an autoimmune thing and/or the result of some other medication I'm on which I was told wouldn't have any impact on TTC but which is relatively new to the market). We probably won't get much of an opportunity in Jan as DH is away with work but I might spend the month making/having doctors appointments so I feel like I'm doing something.
