@Soph4321 they seem to be similar cramps that I get when my AF is due and also some dull pains on my left side, but I've been having them intermittently throughout last week and usually I only get them the day before I'm due!

Thanks @Rightnow1245! I knew it was early, but hopefully it means I've got it out of my system now and will be able to hold off till the end of the week! How are you feeling? Have the positive OPKs stopped?

So sorry to hear about your MC @Mumof4andahalf ļæ¼the faint positive line sounds promising šŸ¤žšŸ½

Welcome newbie when is your test day soph? It’s always good to have people to talk to!
waitingforbaby2 My AF is due on the 25th October but I w probably test early lol šŸ˜‚
gingerlou84 oh yeah it will take a little while to regulate again but it will sort itself out 😊
Sorry to hear that abz it’s still so early so stay positive šŸ¤žšŸ½
Mumof4andahalf sorry to hear about your MC.. that’s sounds like it could be your month if you got a faint line? When are you testing again?

OP posts:
Soph4321 · 15/10/2018 23:19

I did that last month @abzi91 and my other half said "what a waste of a test" 🤣
What kind of cramps and twinges are you having? I'm due AF on the 24th, and I'm having lots of full aches followed by sharp stabs on one side of my abdomen. I guess we'll be testing around the same time x

Abzi91 · 15/10/2018 22:56

So I caved and took a hpt that I knew would be pointless because my AF isn't due till Saturday but the cramps and twinges made me hopeful.. It was a BFN, which I expected but still feel disappointed.. I was interrogating the non-existent line with my phone torch for ages! šŸ™ˆ

Welcome to all newbies and fingers crossed for you all! šŸ˜ŠšŸ¤žšŸ½

Soph4321 · 15/10/2018 21:51

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie and would like to join in.

I've been following discussions on here since June when we decided to get my coil removed and try to conceive baby number 2 😊
I'm on cycle day 19 of 28 and hoping for a positive this month šŸ¤ž

I just wanted to chat with people in the same boat xxx

SenoraSurf · 15/10/2018 21:09

@Mumof4andahalf sorry for your loss, fingers crossed all will settle down so you can track properly and know where you're at. Thanks

@Dosmamas we have the same tww! Fingers crossed for the 27th Grin

Dosmamas · 15/10/2018 20:37

@EmmTTC sorry to hear about your heartache, stay strong even though it must be so hard šŸ˜–.

We have had our 2nd DTD so that's it for us this month sperm wise. Settling in for the TWW. Hoping for my BFP 27.10.2018 šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ¤žšŸ¼šŸ¤žšŸ¼

GreyC · 15/10/2018 20:07

Had a positive opk today; so BD today and will push for tomorrow baha. Poor DP.

So hopefully I will ovulate tomorrow! Eep

Mumof4andahalf · 15/10/2018 18:09

I had a Mmc 4 weeks ago, cycle not returned to normal yet, think I'm due a/f on Wednesday, been testing as feel pregnant but so far bfn ā˜¹ļø although 1 was faintly positive....I hate this waiting around
I seem to get really late positives, the 1 confirming last pregnancy was 5 days after af due and was faint so holding out hope for this month

gingerlou84 · 15/10/2018 17:44

Thank you. I was sort of tracking in that we use NFP so I’m pretty in tune to what is going on with my cycle but it has all been less predictable since my miscarriage.

wimsywon · 15/10/2018 17:34

Thank you. Funny how these opk change in one day! It was negative this morning but now i have 2distinct lines!! Told hubby we're doing it!! Lol i'm not missing any opportunity šŸ¤žšŸ˜

Abzi91 · 15/10/2018 16:50

Thanks @Rightnow1245! Will keep you guys updated with what result I get! I'm trying not to tell people we're trying, otherwise I feel so much pressure like you said šŸ™ˆ
I wish I could relax and enjoy this time, but that's definitely not me!

@Ffhh Like you, I don't have any friends going through this right now, so it's good having everyone here 😊

@EmmTTC sorry to hear AF turned up and so sorry about your first baby! Fingers crossed November will be your month šŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø

Sorry to hear about your MC @wimsywon Thanksļæ¼ hope you get a positive on OPK soon!

Sorry to hear that AF started and for your MC in the summer @gingerlou84. Really hope you get a BFP next monthšŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø

waitingforbaby2 · 15/10/2018 15:37

@Rightnow1245 AF is due the 27th how about you? If will be nice to have a TWW buddy

Rightnow1245 · 15/10/2018 15:16

waitingforbaby2 We can do the TTW together I think I’m 1dpo but could be 2 😬 when is AF due? X

Rightnow1245 · 15/10/2018 15:14

EmmTTC well let’s hope next cycle is your lucky one! Sorry to hear about your first baby I can’t imagine how hard that must be for you šŸ’
Ffhh I totally get how you are feeling i don’t know why some people can be relaxed about it! That Defo isn’t me 😬
wimsywon Sorry to hear bout you MC
Yes this was happening to me this month I was getting faint lines until my positive onCD21 so just keep testing the positive will come 😊 twice a day is a good idea I was doing 3 at one point lol
gingerlou84 sorry to hear about your MC too.. let’s hope next cycle you have more luck! Was you tracking ovulation?

Sorry to hear that @EmmTTC I had my implant removed on 14th sept so kinda tried that month as I think I may of ovulated on the 16th sept but officially started trying this month and I'm now either 1dpo or 3do I'm only using a app but not temping or using opks yet as I want to try to stay calm about it but I already convinced myself I was pregnant last month intil AF arrived it's so hard not to look into every single symptom but I'm trying not to this month

gingerlou84 · 15/10/2018 12:27

Hi all, can I join? We are month 1 of TTC after a miscarriage in the summer. I had been feeling sick all week and so was absolutely convinced I was pregnant but AF arrived this morning. Feeling so crushed - it's bringing back all the emotions of the m/c. I know it was silly to expect anything after 1 month, but both my previous pregnancies (I have a 21 month old son) were first timers. I'm now going through all the ridiculous worries about late summer babies and schooling etc (although not enough to pause in ttc).

wimsywon · 15/10/2018 12:21

Hi Ladies, I'm 12 days post mc, determined to try again but had afew weird results on opk strips...so i'm pretty sure i'm no longer showing postive forpregnanacy following the mc. I have stopped bleeding and today's opk @CD13 is negative. Testing again later and twice a day until i see two lines but the weird thing i that i was getting two faint lines until today?? the past 3 days I had a neg preg test but 2 faint lines on ovulation test strips...today...negative for ov? Anyone else get this then show clearer lines later on? Thank you!

Ffhh · 15/10/2018 12:07

sorry to hear that @emmTTC xx

Ffhh · 15/10/2018 11:40

i'm day 28 of month 4 ttc for the first time and i've been reading a lot recently about others who have their lives literally taken over by thoughts and timing of ovulation, small signs you might be pregnant, not being pregnant, being sad (and is its me or is my pmt during ttc worse than its ever been?!!!) and repeat! i hate others go through this too, but i am also glad to hear i'm not alone. I can't really talk to friends because none of them are trying or have children and the usual response is 'you should just relax and not think about it'. that doesn't help does it? Wink

EmmTTC · 15/10/2018 10:23

@waitingforbaby2 only a couple of months. I lost my first baby in summer at 20 weeks. So I was just desperate to get pregnant again. But need to relax and let it happen when it happens I think. What about you? What stage of your cycle are you at? šŸ™‚

@rightnow1245 yes I will thank you! I can’t wait to hear all your journeys too. It’s nice having a community going through the same things and feelings! ā¤ļø

Rightnow1245 · 15/10/2018 09:47

Sorry to hear that emmttc still stick around tho as you are part of the group now 😊
