Really enjoyed being on the Christmas day testing thread even though I was out before the 25th. I thought it would be good to start another thread for peoplw to join me in the TWW since the January buses are such a long period and some people are 14dpo and some like me are counting down the hours to the TWW. I ovulate on Friday 4th or Saturday 5th. Opks are very low at the moment but hoping to catch a surge. Still trying to DTD everyday (we are newlyweds), keep forgetting to take our vitamins and to use preseed but hoping just to get lucky on our second cycle.

Wow! 5 BFPs
Congratulations to @justanother123, @hunkyd0ry and @user258. This is turning out to be such a lucky thread. Over the moon for everyone, this is such wonderful news.

I am only 11dpo and had a BFN on a IC don't feel pregnant but my colleague said that I look different and I did dream of pregnancy for the first time ever.

Hope there are a ton more BFPs on the thread and hope that I am one of them but trying to chill and if not this month am so looking forward to a big glass of wine and a gin and tonic

JingleAllTheQuack · 15/01/2019 19:18

Congratulations @Justanother123, @Hunkyd0ry and @User258!

I've had some lower back pain today - not normally an AF symptom for me, so hoping it's a good sign. Taking my first test tomorrow, when I'll be 12 DPO.

LillianFullStop · 15/01/2019 19:08

Oh wow congrats to all the BFPs!

User258 · 15/01/2019 18:39

After 3 days of BFN, I finally have 5 very faint BFP on 3 different brands.
I was beginning to lose all hope. AF due in 3 days, won't be completely happy until I have strong positives however.

Good luck to everybody, wishing everybody the best and congratulations so to those who have already got BFP XX

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 18:35

wow a forth, congrats @hunkyd0ry this is awsome, how exciting.

ChocChip01 · 15/01/2019 18:18

Another two positives that is fantastic! Congratulations @Justanother123 and @Hunkyd0ry Grin

Hunkyd0ry · 15/01/2019 18:07

I caved a day early. No idea how to add a picture but my clear blue says “pregnant 1-2 weeks”
Due end of September.

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 18:03

@Justanother123 thats a nice healthy dark line! congratulations, the third bfp on this thread i think? wow there is going to be a baby boom in October me thinks ha.

Justanother123 · 15/01/2019 17:25

Oh god. It’s real. Period due tomorrow......

BFP or AF due 19th January

Ange if you ovulated (and conceived) later than you thought, it may be why there’s no sign of AF yet but too early for BFP. Fingers crossed that you are still in.

Ange211 · 15/01/2019 13:22

Ladies help me before I go off my rocker! Af has still not made her full appearance. This is highly unusual for me.... A quick Google says spotting can happen up to 3 days before af but never for me....I'm thinking I'm still in or am I clutching at straws???

LillianFullStop · 15/01/2019 12:30

@sal1987 I’m the same just the left boob sore. Normal pre-AF soreness is usually both boobs sore.

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 12:28

@sal1987 Thats a great remedy! lemon honey (manuka) and ginger homemade "teas" mmm x

LillianFullStop · 15/01/2019 12:26

@ChocChip01 I’m the same with cheapie ones (Superdrug had them on sale) so I just used them all up and now I just have a FRER and a CB both still in sealed packets. I’m less likely to drive myself nuts on those to “just see”.

AF due tomorrow or Friday so will just wait and see for now

Hunkyd0ry · 15/01/2019 11:56

@sal1987
With my first I didn’t have morning sickness but felt dodgy. A bit like I could be sick but nothing ever happened.
Little drinks, little and often food and ginger apparently all help!

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 11:15

@chochip01 a metallic taste in the mouth is usually a good symptom to have!

@sal1987 extra saliva is also a good symptom to have, it sounds pretty good so far with whats going on for you, .. a lot of these symptoms can happen with AF due too unfortunately but extra saliva is good.

sal1987 · 15/01/2019 11:10

To those who have been pregnant before what is morning sickness like? I am having hot flushes and my face is going tingly like I'm going to be sick and get the extra saliva in my mouth but having a drink keeps it at bay, I haven't been sick and don't feel ill like it's a bug. Also do the symptoms come and go or have them all the time? My stomach and backache come and go and my left boob is sore but my right isn't as bad and that comes and goes too. Sorry for the long message but any help would be appreciated. 😘😘

ChocChip01 · 15/01/2019 11:08

You are both very good not testing. I made the mistake of buying a load of internet cheapies for a couple quid. Fingers crossed for you guys!

Hunkyd0ry · 15/01/2019 10:38

I’m very tempted to test. AF due tomorrow but I have no tests so need to wait!

glowingtwigs · 15/01/2019 10:35

@ChocChip01 I'm going to try and be good and wait until AF is late, which would be Thursday. Not holding out much hope- boobs are less sore and I feel a bit crampy... feel v unpregnant and like AF is going to appear.

Huge congratulations to those with BFP!! I hope we get more!

ChocChip01 · 15/01/2019 10:21

Another BFN for me this morning... not much in the way of symptoms apart from a metallic taste in mouth and feeling super hungry (but I’m always hungry especially when bored at work!). Roll on Friday when AF is due! Anyone else testing today?

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 07:42

@bea179 exactly, it aint over till its over, good luck.

foreverthe2ww · 15/01/2019 07:39

I have had spots on my chin appear now, ... this could be due to pregnancy buuuuut it could also just be due to AF or the herbs i have started taking, as always the symptom could be for various reasons ugh. I really dont feel pregnant and have had no dreams to indicate that i am (last time I dreamt about blood which meant being pregnant, it turned out i was and the dream happened on what would of been the day of implantation it seems)

bea179 · 15/01/2019 07:34

Hi can I join? Bit late to the party!
I'm ttc #1 and this is our first proper cycle trying. AF is due on Thursday, I caved and tested on Sunday (negative), so don't think this is our month but still a tiny bit of hope until AF arrives!
