Thats gd uve got past the first hurdle, i think the scan will help u relax hopefully. What is it meant to b 3mnths before your first scan on nhs? When u actually think about it seems a lifetime when ur desperate to know if everything looks k.

Period was due yesterday. Thats why I've been worried about my lines not being dark enough. I mean I might've ovulated a little later or implanted later.
I'm such a hypocrite too haha.
We're going to book a private viability scan for the end of this month to help me feel better about it all.

thisisouryrfx18 · 06/05/2018 18:34

I think once u get by the date ur period was due ul worry a little less then once u get a scan ul relax its just the waiting until then that will seem long. U can always vent on here lol that being said everything seems gd just now enjoy it! (im such a hypocrite i worry about everything lol)

That's my only issue with temps, the not knowing until after you've ovulated when it can already be too late to catch it.
I did another frer and a digital today. Digital was negativr but frer was positive.
Ran out of patience and told my husband today, he's over the moon and isn't bothered my digitals were negative he said 6 positive first responses is enough for him.
If the gif loads this was genuinely his face when he realised what the baby gro in his hands meant.

Yh still says i havent ovulated i dnt understand it i had 6 temps above coverline then a slight dip 2day at 7dpo(well it wouldve been if id ovulated like it said yest lol) i fot a dip at 7dpo was gd. Im beyond pissed off with it all now! Neway hows u did u do another frer today?

OP posts:
Aph413 · 06/05/2018 06:16

I know how you feel. It got pretty mechanical for us at one point.
Did you try discarding your oral temps from your chart to see what it said?

thisisouryrfx18 · 06/05/2018 06:11

Dnt even think i could dtd feeling totally drained from this ttc i was soo happy past couple of days now this! Thats gd ur frer is still positive ul get the digital in a couple of days especially with ur lines getting darker

OP posts:
Aph413 · 06/05/2018 06:03

Oh that's rubbish, just keep bd'ing as much as you can. My digitals are still negative today, frer is still positive. Probably going to save the digital for wednesday instead of tomorrow since that's when ff is telling me to.

thisisouryrfx18 · 06/05/2018 05:53

Dunno id do one lol prob cause we ve had a chemical in the past we find it harder to believe we re pregnant. I just took my temperature and fertility friend says my pattern has changed enough for it to think i havent ovulated😔

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 19:03

Goodness me. Well hopefully you get your bfp at the end of this and then work has got to put you on lighter duties!

I was thinking earlier today whether there is anyone out there who would just accept something like my bfp as it and not feel the need to do a digital test.

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 18:55

Thanx u too..it seems to more and more heavy lifting recently just my luck lol

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 18:43

I had a look on Google about it, most of it's to do with heavy lifting in early pregnancy but on livestrong it mentions implanation and ttc and that continuing with your level of activity from before ttc is fine. It's generally talking about exercise but since that includes weight lifting I'd say you'll be ok in your tww.
I know it might not be much comfort, the tww is terrifying to me but we have to try to relax as stupid as it is.
I've got my fingers crossed for you

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 17:18

I know but it makes me kinda paranoid keep think all this straining and heavy lifting cant help with implantation..oh well not much we can do eh? I dnt want to tel ppl im ttc just need to be careful

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 17:07

Same here. I do care work so there's a lot of moving people about. As soon as I cam I'll be letting them know so I can move onto lighter duties.
For the tww though it's fine really because anything happening is too small to be affected by lifting and the like

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 17:04

Wow thats amazing how quickly its becoming stronger..crazy. Yh ive done that before lol makes ur pee to dilute to get a positive oh well theres always 2morro for the digital. Ive been worrying in my work recently i do quite a manual job keep thinking it cant b gd during the tww to b doing so much physical activity

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 16:52

I took my digital. After a 1 hour hold and a massive cup of tea. Of course it was negative haha. That'll teach me. However my frer is stronger.
Not even a squinter now

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 14:25

@Aph413 yh im just impatient lol im saying to myself just now dnt test until 14dpo but i ll prob cave in n test early like u lol im only 6dpo and its goin in slow already

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 14:05

I have 1 digital I'm going to hold onto as long as I can. I've ordered some more frer from amazon and once I get a nice strong line I'll use the digital

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 12:44

I know i was the exact same when it happened to me but thats 2positives uve had now surely that has to count for sumthin. If u get a positive on a digital 2morro id say ur all gd hun.

OP posts:
Aph413 · 05/05/2018 12:03

My emotions are all over the place. This is ridiculous. I always thought I would realise my period was late test and get a massive bfp. Not this weird positive and then negative crampy bloaty uncertain time.

thisisouryrfx18 · 05/05/2018 11:06

I can see a line! get a digital for in the morning i dnt know how uve managed to not tell OH the suspense is killing me lol what a rollercoaster the past couple of days
