@SantaBaby1 thank you I have decided also to be optimistic and positive no point in worrying and I want to enjoy Christmas 🙂 and be great full for what I do have

Helen290 · 20/12/2017 09:42

@Allcrossed awww try not to worry I'm in the same boat also and I looked up line procession online and everyone is different some people have faint line for a few and it takes a week to get darker, also depends how concentrated your urine is.
I just worry cause I have an achy uterus last time and it became more frequent and I always think that was the sign things were going wrong but it might not of been and I know what will be will be no point worrying it's just hard 😩 when you want something so bad.

Hey @Helen290 every part of me is aching to be honest especially my uterus. After having tonsillitis I’m now full of cold. I’m so worried now and I’ve tested again on an ic and I think it was fainter Sad but don’t know if I’m just worrying myself. I’m trying to be happy and positive but it’s hard. And it probably doesn’t help that, other than you lovely ladies, I’ve got no one to talk it out with as I’m waiting until Xmas eve to tell DH.

@santababy1 many congratulations, that second line is so clear to me so I would say it’s definitely a BIG FAT CHRISTMASSY POSITIVE Flowers

@helen290 @santababy1 SO exciting!!! Sounds like the worries never end though.

I think I’m 6 or 7dpo now and had some spotting this morning which is really unusual for me :( cramps, back ache, feel generally rubbish. Think it’s an early af for me!

dancingunicorns123 · 20/12/2017 08:38

@Helen290 that's defiantly darker! Congratulations!

That’s definitely darker Helen. I know how you feel, miscarriage robs you of your pregnancy innocence that two lines = baby

Try to stay positive - I’m going to be doing my best to be positive and cautiously optimistic too

Helen290 · 20/12/2017 08:33

Ok I might be loosing my mind lol but I did another pregnancy test today and I think the line looks darker?,I am really going to try and not test again till the weekend but it's so hard after an MC 😑 I just keep on expecting it to go lighter it's a horrible feeling 😔.

Helen290 · 20/12/2017 07:59

@SantaBaby1 are you getting any achy feelings in your uterus? I get them on and off was just a little worried they are not painful just achy 🙂.

Helen290 · 20/12/2017 07:58

@SantaBaby1 congratulations hun that's not faint so don't worry implantation can happen between 6-12 days post ovulation , but I wouldn't say that was faint 🙂

Owlpatrol · 20/12/2017 07:45

@surreygirl1987 lol snap so glad it's Xmas! I'm about 4dpo I don't think I'll be able to test Xmas day

@SantaBaby1 no it's not too faint at all hun it might be that implantation happened a bit later than usual so congratulations!!

SantaBaby1 · 20/12/2017 07:28

I’m 12dpo today btw. Is this too faint?!

SantaBaby1 · 20/12/2017 07:27

Cautious P from me. Hesitate to call it a BFP as I don’t think this can be described as ‘big’ or ‘fat’ but I think it is a positive?

@surreygirl1987 I’m so glad it’s not just me!

Helen290 · 20/12/2017 06:53

@Allcrossed are you getting any aching in your uterus? So hard not to worry about everything lol

surreygirl1987 · 20/12/2017 00:01

@mollydog88 you sound soooo much like me with the worrying (hopefully for no good reason!!)

Temp rose this morning so now officially entering my 2ww! Thank God Xmas is here to distract me... thought I was going crazy last month - the wait felt so long!!

Kkk87 · 19/12/2017 22:14

Yeah I know @Miss83 I really want it so bad this month coz it all fits in perfect

dingdongdigeridoo · 19/12/2017 20:25

Sounds familiar Miss83! I had to explain the concept of ovulation to my DH, and why when it’s the FW we really have to make an effort to have sex. No, we can’t wait til next week because you have a big meeting. This needs to happen now! He also didn’t know that you couldn’t get pregnant all month round.

I blame TV where people shag once and get up the duff.

Mollydog88 · 19/12/2017 19:13

My husband’s been just as stressed and excited and nervous about it all as I am - not sure if that makes it worse! Really struggling this month, going through the whole ‘there’s definitely something wrong, it’ll never happen, I definitely have an untreated std from a million years ago that’s never ever been picked up, I don’t ovulate...’ even though I’m fully aware I’m being ridiculous, my head’s not stopping this time!!

Miss83 · 19/12/2017 19:08

Kkk87... That would be amazing doing it on his birthday and Christmas. If I could keep quite long enough I'd love to tell our mums on mother's Day.... That would be hard though lol.

Miss83 · 19/12/2017 19:07

Hi guys, I'm joining..... AF due December 27th so hoping for a Christmas BFP!

Congratulations to everyone who has had their BFP's.

TTC# 1
Cycle 2

I agree men don't get it... My 34 year old DP thought that it could happen any point of the month. Told him to do some googling... He has yet to and still doesn't believe me when I tell him how small our window is to catch.

Kkk87 · 19/12/2017 19:02

It's my DP Birthday 23rd so I'm testing then. Would love to tell him on his birthday and my family on xmas morning. I mc in September so I know it'll be a worry if I am

Allcrossed · 19/12/2017 18:01

@Helen290 yeah I totally get what you mean. It’s tough but we’ve got to just stay strong and positive. I’m sure we will both be fine Flowers xx

Helen290 · 19/12/2017 17:42

@Allcrossed I ended up telling my hubby I couldn't not lol, but it's so hard to not worry isn't it? I am planning on testing again Friday to see if the lines darker then leave it till the following week.
But that will be a lovely surprise for your partner when you tell him, two MC's one was hard 😔 I'm so sorry to hear that.
I just worry I want ever relax if it does stick and just worry the whole pregnancy 😔. X

Allcrossed · 19/12/2017 15:05

Hey @Helen290 I’m in the same boat. I’m so anxious this time after getting my BFP on Friday. I’ve MCd twice this year and it’s so hard.
I’m also trying to hold off telling my husband until Xmas eve but I’m finding it difficult as I keep nearly spilling the beans. I’ve just told my Dentist just so I could offload the news onto another person Grin
Good luck to you xx

Helen290 · 19/12/2017 14:33

@Merrz @Kkk87 yeh good idea I'll wait i am also going to wait till Christmas Day to test again 🙂 I just really hope this time it sticks it's hard not to get excited 😑
