Still no sign of AF just constantly checking got quite a lot of CM but not even slightly pink or anything!! Gonna do cheapie test Wed and another CB Friday if there's no bleeding coz by Friday my period will be a week late!! I know my pee was less dilute for the first yet coz I had a bit of alcohol the night before not expecting to be pregnant and coz alcohol is dehydrating it always makes my pee darker whereas last night I was drinking only non-alcoholic stuff and water! I'm my hormones are slow at reacting coz after my TFMR it took 4 months for the HCG levels to drop enough so I wouldn't get a positive results in subsequent tests i had to take!! Sounds like your doing the right stuff @Scarletrose18 xx

Have you had spotting this time in cycle before @coco ? I have heard of spotting around ovulation? Im sure its not a hormonal issue chick. Your periods are all regular now and I think you are nice and fertile.

Oh no, what a nightmare, im sure you are shattered today from it! Hes sleeping ok again (for now lol) but still being a little mischief... you are welcome to borrow him for the weekend if your ds needs a playmate. Ill drop him to you on Friday and you can send him back on Monday 😂😂😂

How are todays tests progessing? Mine are still super light.

@mummyb Sorry you had a negative test today, thats so confusing for you 💜. it sounds like your urine was maybe too diluted. And your AF still isnt here, and you already had a positive test! When will you test again? And have you tried those cheapie tests that you have?

@mummyb Im currently lying with my bottom elevated after dtd 😂😂😂😂 No positive opks yet. Mine should be positive tomorrow I think. Thank you for asking. How is your day? 🙂

Hi @mfbroome How long do you have to wait until your scan date? That would be hanfy if you could get to the hosp as you are so close. Just waiting on my positive opk atm then another tww lol. As @coco said its dragging a bit for us.
Send us lots of baby dust please 😁💖

OMG that's crazy!! Did your DD enjoy it?
Any positive OPKs yet ladies? Xx

HJWT · 11/02/2019 15:38

@MummyBearBoo we took our DD to the safari park today and went in the monkeys... what a STUPID idea that was 🤦🏻‍♀️ they ripped half of our number plate of 😂

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 14:14

Yeah I've got some strips and plastic cups but they not very sensitive though I didn't get a positive even when I was 8 weeks last time I'd seen him on the ultrasound by that time! I might try one Wednesday anyway coz I'll be going to gym and need to know whether I have to take it easy or not! Then if I'm still not bleeding do CB Friday - what's everyone else up to? Xx

HJWT · 11/02/2019 12:32

@MummyBearBoo you need to be dipping if its digital go to Poundland and get some plastic cups and pee & dip thats what i do xx

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 11:55

Sorry dunno why it posted twice!

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 11:54

Thanks @Mfbroome - don't have any Frer but I'm not gonna test again til Friday if AF still doesn't turn up by then anyway! I'm constantly checking for AF but nothing yet! Xx

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 11:18

Thanks @Mfbroome - don't have any Frer but I'm not gonna test again til Friday if AF still doesn't turn up by then anyway! I'm constantly checking for AF but nothing yet! Xx

Mfbroome · 11/02/2019 11:07

That first bit was for u @MummyBearBoo ❤️

Mfbroome · 11/02/2019 11:07

Hi girls, so much to catch up on xxx
I'm sorry I didn't have a good result this morn. I never use clear blue just frer tests :) have u got any of those? I feel like they r quite reliable and sensitive xxxx

@HJWT congratulations! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi @Cocobana yeah I feel fine! 5+5 today :) I got my scan date through but still haven't seen midwife. Will call them in the morning. I tried to go through the hospital this time as I love pretty much next door to it and my community midwife was a right loser last pregnancy 😂 but annoyingly they haven't posted me an antenatal apt yet. No rush I guess still early xx
I'm just so tired by the time it gets to 3pm 🤣 falling asleep at my desk right now tbh actually 😂
So what's the latest with u and @Scarletrose18 have u ovulated yet xxx

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 09:52

Thanks @Cocobana and @HJWT - if AF didn't arrive by Friday I'll test then I just hate waiting for stuff you're always waiting for something on this journey! I didn't really look to see how concentrated it was but I couldn't pee much on the stick then have needed to pee loads since (sorry TMI guys!).

HJWT · 11/02/2019 09:41

@Cocobana thank you! I am feeling hopeful but have belly ache and had a few pains on my right side yesterday! So only time will tell ☺️ xx

Cocobana · 11/02/2019 09:41

@Scarletrose18 I hope this cycle speeds up for us both. I know it does sound like a bit of a chore lol. Ttc does change DTD especially when it can all be for nothing. I started spotting yesterday and spotting/ light bleeding today. I’m hoping it isn’t a hormone issue as I can’t see it being connected to ovulation because I haven’t had a +opk yet. I’ve started doing two a day too.
My relaxed night didn’t last lol ds woke up at 2am and wouldn’t go back to sleep until 4am. He was just wide awake; he must be going through another development. How is your little one sleeping now?

HJWT · 11/02/2019 09:37

@MummyBearBoo well I thought the whole thing was just hold your pee all night and your fine but yesterday urine was a lot more concentrated than this mornings because i drank a lot before I went to sleep last night ! You can tell by the colour how concentrated it is and the digital are a lot more sensitive than the usual ones it took me 3 tests before i got anything on a digital with DD xx

Cocobana · 11/02/2019 09:36

Congratulations @HJWT that’s a lovely clear line for 9dpo, you must have implanted early, how are you feeling? 👍🏼😃✨

Cocobana · 11/02/2019 09:34

@MummyBearBoo oh no did you test with first morning urine? Sounds like you could have drank too much? That’s so strange as the CB digital are so accurate usually. You haven’t had your period and that really is he biggest of signs. I don’t think you’re out until AF arrives (which hopefully she won’t.) x 🤞🏻✨

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 09:00

So since I did the test this morning at 7.30 I been to the loo 3 times - wandering if I drank too much before bed last night I had a big bottle of alcohol free pear cider?! This could dilute the result - I know clutching at straws I'll just wait to see if my bleeding starts before Friday! How's everyone else doing any positive OPK news? Xx

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 08:11

No the Pregnant / Not Pregnant one! Saturday said Pregnant 1-2 weeks, this morning said Not Pregnant! It's so cruel! Xx

HJWT · 11/02/2019 08:06

@MummyBearBoo was it the cross kind or a digital? Xx

MummyBearBoo · 11/02/2019 07:21

Sorry to start the day off on a downer but I got a BFN this morning on a CB test can only assume either: hopefully this is s false negative and I don't start bleeding in which case I will test again on Friday (when I'll be a week late) or I've had a CP and will start bleeding soon - I've still had no bleeding or spotting yet!! 😢 - i'm so confused guess I'll be back on the bus and not due to ovulate til March!! Xx

HJWT · 11/02/2019 07:19

Thank you for all of your lovely replies ! I am sending baby dust to all of you ✨

Top is yesterdays test and 2 bottom are this morning 😁 still don't believe it! Will take a digital on Saturday I think x

@MummyBearBoo My lower back has been more painful the last few days! I was getting a bit of pain on my right side yesterday not constant but I did notice it! So I'm not getting my hopes up to much especially since AF isn't due till Saturday... with DD I had pain at 6 weeks suspected ectopic thankfully it wasn't, and a bleed at 13 weeks and she is currently shouting 'NODDY' at me 😂 Finding out this time was a total accident I didn't even want to know till my period was late 🤭

My digitals are here I keep needing to Pee every hour tho that's pretty annoying! Still no bleeding or spotting -touch wood-and no hiccups!! Hopefully will get another BFP tomorrow starting to feel like I might be pregnant although a CP could cause same symptoms as I would have been pg! Today I had to have some caffeine to stay awake I felt sooooo tired thought I could have dropped off standing up! Still had less than the max amount recommended - been taking folic acid and vit D since last AF finished too I have multi vitamins but the tablets are massive so not taking them yet! Fingers crossed you get your +OPKs in next couple of days @Cocobana and @Scarletrose18 - how are you feeling @HJWT any symptoms? X

Yes it is dragging a little for me too 😒. Cd12 is great, you could ovulate any day next week really then 🙂. So the day we get out positives its 3 days dtd. Sounds so tiring ha ha. I told dh tonight to be prepared to be dtd 3 days in a row this week after work. 😂

That sounds like a lovely day @coco Nice to be relaxed and have family time. Yes for sure the fresh air and all the adventures will have helped. Thats great hes in his own bed early, hopefully he does the same tomorrow night. Are you onto your 2 opks a day? I have started yesterday taking one in morning and one in evening.
