Anyone out there want to join me in trying for a successful Feb?! I’m sure there are loads of us out there can can support and answer questions :)
I’m 35, TTC #2 and have been trying for 4 months or so. My Son is almost 16 months so out of that baby stage which was so much fun (although this age defo has its perks).

@ale2992
That sounds really tough, I’m sorry. I think maybe sometimes people are just so focused on their own stuff that they don’t consider others.

@Doris19 I was SO good and didn’t retest this morning, I’m going to try to wait for Sunday to do another one!

lizzie198 · 22/02/2019 08:13

@Doris19 I was absolutely determined not to test til next Wednesday at the earliest if af hadn't shown up but I clearly have no will power lol. I'm going to try and wait and follow original plan if I can. Fx for yours x

Doris19 · 22/02/2019 08:07

I second the scan for @tilly98 you definitely need some clarity.

Also sounds like a difficult day @ale2992 hopefully you can explain how it made you feel but if she's unaware maybe you can distance yourself a little for a while so you don't fall out in the longer term.

@lizzie198 9 dpo is so early, I would test again in another few days. I drove myself mad poas last month I'm trying to be good this month. But after @Mooey89 caved last night 🤣 I think I might test on Sunday morning when I should be about 11dpo.

@FilthyforFirth I think you just had an earlier cycle than some of us. I'll be with you on that March thread soon though I expect...

lizzie198 · 22/02/2019 07:55

@ale2992 if she knows about your MC I would maybe just have a chat with her and explain your so happy for her but you are struggling a little bit as you know you would be at the same stages nearly she is.

Well I caved ladies after yesterday's horrible events I was hoping for a bit of good news but nope these are clearly bfn but I am
Only about 9dpo. The confusing thing is though clue says af due tomorrow flo says next Wednesday so I used a boots early and the one steps. Still have a frer hidden
In the wardrobe for if af doesn't arrive but hoped the boots might pick it up if i was

Okay I need to rant;
My best friend is currently pregnant, she is four weeks ahead of what I would have been if I had not miscarried in Dec.
She messaged me today saying how bored and fed up of pregnancy she is.
REALLY?!

SaffronWood12 · 21/02/2019 20:46

SaffronWood12 · 21/02/2019 20:46

tilly98 · 21/02/2019 20:40

I'm going back tomorrow and demanding a scan to see what's going on. I've tested on first response, clear blue, clear and simple strips, Superdrug, ASDA,Tesco and puns shop all were positive xxx

Mooey89 · 21/02/2019 20:37

I don’t think it’s fair either! I would push for a scan at the EPU if I was you Hun xx

FilthyforFirth · 21/02/2019 19:31

Oh no, so sorry @tilly98, can you go to your EPU and ask for a scan?

Kinsella82 · 21/02/2019 19:17

@tilly98 im so sorry this is happening.
What tests did u get the positives on? (Hugs)

tilly98 · 21/02/2019 19:13

The receptionist phoned and that was the end of it. I don't think it's fair if I'm honest xx

Mooey89 · 21/02/2019 18:51

Are they going to scan you??

tilly98 · 21/02/2019 18:49

I last had sex a couple of days just after New Years and couple weeks went by I've been getting positive test for a couple of weeks now. Had blood work and it was negative but I still got a positive this afternoon. So strange and so upset xxx

Scottish1 · 21/02/2019 18:40

Oh no @tilly98 What do you mean? You had positive tests? When? Sending a hug (( ))

tilly98 · 21/02/2019 18:24

Looks like I'm back in. After many positive tests I had a negative blood test 😭 xxxx

FilthyforFirth · 21/02/2019 14:12

Wow, few mor3 bfp, congrats to all! Good luck for those left to test. Am I the only one defo out? Feel like I should start a March thread!

But I am also off to an adoption evening tonight. I just feel like it probably wont happen a 2nd time for us. I'm grateful I've had one at all given how erratic our dtd is.

lizzie198 · 21/02/2019 13:57

@Scottish1 i feel your pain! I still think af is coming but not arrived and keep getting little twinges and pains not quite cramps but slightly uncomfortable from time to time.

Scottish1 · 21/02/2019 13:38

*twinge/pinching that should have said not punching

Scottish1 · 21/02/2019 13:38

Have resisted the urge to test twice this afternoon-almost did but didn’t! Going to get out of the house in a minute and away from the test! 😂

Have been getting an intermittent twinge/punching in my lower left abdomen. It’s not painful but noticeable. I also feel like af is lurking in the background now too however so many women online have said they felt like af was coming before bfp so I’m clutching at straws!!! Going quietly insane trying to second guess! 🤪🤯

Scottish1 · 21/02/2019 10:38

Seeing these bfps is making me want to test but holding out!!! 😣

Scottish1 · 21/02/2019 10:37

Congratulations!!! @Ovacado23 and @yeooooooI 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Very happy for you both!

Sorry to hear about your horse @lizzie 😞 Sending a hug (( ))

ale2992 · 21/02/2019 10:03

So I caved and did a test this morning, bfn but I know it's really early I'm only 6dpo.
Just annoyed at myself now and feel shitty.
Still symptom spotting, feeling sick this morning and I'm exhausted, feeling like I have abit of a cold coming.

Yeoooooooo · 21/02/2019 09:53

I’m so sorry about your horse Lizzie ☹️

Yeoooooooo · 21/02/2019 09:52

Thanks everyone! I feel a bit shell shocked. Stupid question - what should I do now? Just keep testing in the mornings until after AF is due on Sunday and then take a clear blue test on Monday? Can you tell I’m clueless?!
