TTC First Baby Thread 21

@MrsH497 sorry to hear that, how many DPO are you?

@Lozzlepop did an IC bfn so I'm not hopeful

Morning ladies :D

@LokiCat glad the boobs are still sore haha!

@Lottiepink 🤞🤞🤞 how long have you been trying?

@flossy12 that would make me angry as well haha! Esp as she is pregnant 😭 well done for managing to DTD after

Had another peak OPK this morning - so ovulation probably today. Fingers crossed it is a cba to DTD another 2 nights 😂

Morning laides!

@LokiCat remember symptoms come and go and everyone experiences pregnancy differently so please try not to worry! DP is at home today to wait for the roofer and luckily its a glorious day! Yes fingers crossed we can start trying again soon, AF due on Friday! Still feeling sick but think its just due to being tired, had some late nights and bad sleeps over the weekend!

@starkid welcome back 😊how are you doing? thats great news about DHs SA!!

@flossy12 she has moved next to you.....is she mad?? I'm not surprised this killed the mood although glad to hear you recovered things later on!!

@Larrydavid I love the fact you guys are always DTD in fields like a covert operation 😂

@Macbless glad to hear that the internet is up and running, I know when we moved in we had to wait almost 2 months before we got connected!

@Jessikka congratulations again, what lovely strong lines!!

@MrsH497 have you tested again?

@Lottiepink LP is usually 15 days so AF is predicted on Friday! I don't temp so have no idea on that front unfortunately!

How is everyone on this lovely Tuesday? It makes such a difference to have a dry day, and it coincides with the roofer coming to hopefully sort our leak 🤞🏻Gym at lunch and a quiet night for us, anyone got anything nice planned?

@MIW01 @LokiCat @cupcakesandglitter just can't let myself even think it's anything other than my body being cruel.
Put a liner on this morning instead of tampon as it was so light been in since 5 and hardly anything there. Light watery blood when I went to the loo. Who knows!!

@MIW01 I'm no good at charts so can't help I'm afraid

@flossy12 OMG that is like something from a sitcom!

Keeping fingers crossed for you @starkid

And very hopeful for you @MrsH497

Enjoy the tent sex @Larrydavid it's quite a liberating experience!

@Jessikka lovely lines! Fingers crossed it's a sticky 1

So my temp rose this morning from below the cover line (which is now dashed due to the fluctuations) at 36.3 to above the cover line 36.5 but also, the range isn't a lot? Highest is 36.7 and lowest 36.2. So I'm wondering, could this be an implantation dip? Or do I just give up trying to interpret as my results are so varied?! Also, isn't 6DPO too soon for implantation?

@Jessikka congratulations!

Would you lovelies mind taking a look at my chart please? I’m so confused with what’s going on. I got a peak on clearblie but then I haven’t noticed a temp jump in my bbt. I tried to relax a bit more this cycle my temps were not recorded at exactly the sane time every day but within 1 hour I’d each other. Also on Monday 5th I was ill with a sore throat and cold

Thank you @Lokicat

How is everyone this morning? I'm about to walk my dog and have some cheese on toast with a cuppa before starting work.

Have a lovely day ladies x

Eeek, sorry @Larrydavid!! That should be congrats to @Jessikka 🙈🙈

Morning ladies! Woke up this morning and my first thought was to feel my boobs to see if they're still sore 😂 only slightly, but unfortunately not feeling any other symptoms as of yet!

@flossy12 wow what are the chances that she moved next door?? Glad she didn't completely spoil your evening and you still managed to DTD! Just remember that he is with you, she's not important to him. I hope you're okay 💕

@whatsthecraic91 thanks! I got home and he was napping on the sofa and wouldn't get up, so I just put the stick in his face. He definitely woke up very quickly after that 😂

@MIW01 thank you! Sorry you've had a stressful time, hope all is okay? Maybe it is best if you don't use temps, especially if it's causing you not to feel that great in the mornings. Sorry to hear that.
Do you use OPKs? As at least they could pinpoint a rough time when you will be ovulating. Hopefully the sharp pains are a positive sign x

@Larrydavid were you the one that was at Glastonbury whilst doing SMEP? If so, I have no worries you'll still manage to DTD - I was very impressed 😂 Hopefully your friends will just think you just can't help take your hands off each other, rather than TTC 

@Larrydavid that's such a strong line for this early, congrats again!!

@Macbless thank you! Glad things are up and running in your house. I hope AF goes away quickly, she does get in the way quite a bit!

@Lottiepink aw thank you again :)
I used the normal BBT and OPK, but also used Pre-Seed for the first time and we tried SMEP.
I was also worried that pregnacare was delaying my ovulation, so I took Superdrug folic acid + vit d tablets and then switched to pregnacare after ovulation so the vit B could help with progesterone (a part of me was worried that was why I mc previously). I had sore boobs about 2/3 days after ovulation, which I've never had before so I'm hoping that's because of the higher levels of progesterone!
Hoping tomorrow is a positive one for you 💕🤞🏽

@MrsH497 My friend said she had similar cycle and thought it was af, however it only lasted three days. She then tested a few days later, got a BFP so assumed that it was actually IB.
Not trying to get your hopes up, but just really wishing for you that this is something good and you get your positive tomorrow. Thinking of you lovely 💕

@cupcakesandglitter that must have been so exciting to see the heartbeat! So happy for you :)
I'm with you re nerves! Last time I contacted my GP and completed the self referral as soon as I got my BFP. This time I'm so worried about losing it that I want to wait before I do anything.. I can't seem to enjoy what should be such a special time, its so frustrating!
I hope you have a healthy pregnancy 💕

Hope you all have a lovely day xx

OMG you've had a scan! So exciting! My mum noticed changes in me last time before I even tested! I really get the anxiety, I have it anyway and TTC/pregnancy/miscarriage just makes the anxiety worse.

I think it's either I haven't ovulated despite the peak OPK or just a weird cycle I can't let myself get hopeful at all. I might make a GP appointment as I can always cancel it see if they will give me a checkup. X

@MrsH497 I'd test tomorrow - if it's pg 14DPO should give you a nice clear line! The only time I've ever had super light AF was cycles that I didn't ovulate - not to get your hopes up at all but just in case then it's something to bear in mind, but I really think and hope this is it for you ❤️ I'm doing well Thankyou, I don't feel pregnant at all but DH has seen a massive difference in me apparently, I'm a lot happier according to him too. I am super tired though, I slept from around 8.45pm until 5am waking up once at 12 when DH got into bed - I usually sleep for four hours a night 😂😂 we had a scan yesterday which showed us our little smidge and it's heartbeat, and although I'm excited I am SO nervous about losing this too, apparently the more losses you've had, the slightly higher chance you have of mc again so I'm very on edge tbh. None of this whole process is easy honestly, I was so naive before we started TTC 😂 how are you? X

Morning @cupcakesandglitter!! You could never send me to sleep we've all been here supporting each other!
Well barely anything overnight small amount of brown which for apparent day 3 of af is not normal for me. I've not had a period this light in years!
No sore boobs (did last time I was pg) had a light cramping last night.

When do I test? I'm probably 13dpo now af would've been due tomorrow I think
How are you doing lovely? X

@MrsH497 I'm hoping for you too - I can't remember if I posted here what happened to me (please skip over if I have 😂) but I think I ovulated on the 13th July, so well class 14th as 1DO. My LP is 14 days, so when I started spotting at 10DPO I thought crap, I've missed ov and AF will start in a couple of days. Had light spotting with nothing on a panty liner, only when I wiped (but there was definitely some on the tissue, not a dot like I've read on some threads). 12DPO and still spotting - 13DPO and I'm still spotting which I thought was really really weird, I only ever spot at most two days so four days was really odd. Still didn't think I was pregnant, just assumed my body was being weird again! Throughout the four days I had BAD cramping, like really really horrible period pains! I was actually crying on 13DPO saying to my mum something wasn't right. Woke up on 14DPO and spotting had gone so I tested, and straightaway a strong line came up! I was so surprised and tbh still can't believe it now 😂😂 I know there's lots of varying implantation stories on the internet but it's not just a couple of spots OR just a couple of hours either, it really varies. Hope that helps (and I've not put you back to sleep) xxxx

@Lottiepink I'll be fine, just need to get used to the idea, they were never official and it didn't last long but that isn't the point 😂😂 it would be uncomfortable even if it had been a one night stand aha

Managed to BD tonight out of nowhere so seems that she hasn't done too much damage to the baby train 😅

Hey @cupcakesandglitter I'm going to really try and wait a couple of days if I can (I won't I have no willpower!) of course I'm 99% sure it's a weird af but that little 1% of me is clinging on to it being implantation bleeding and my little 🌈 might be a reality. A slim chance but this is not like my normal af not got heavier today only very light barely there cramps just a bit weird!
I was 11dpo when it started and af due Wednesday I think it was

@MrsH497 will you test soon? Xx

@Macbless yeah I just don't know what's going on! Not getting any heavier either

@Macbless Yeah it's totally ruined the mood 🙄🙄

Wow... lots of lovely positives. Hopefully that’s a good sign for the rest of us. @LokiCat it’s good to know SMEP has worked so well for you. @MrsH497 what a nightmare - you must feel so annoyed! It’s hard when our bodies put us through this.
@flossy12 - you literally couldn’t make it up. It would have put me off DTD too.

We’ve got the internet up and running in our new house. So glad to have it back. I’m CD2 today. Felt a bit rubbish yesterday as we tried DTD a lot! Hate AF!!! But just got to hope for this month - and remind myself that’s it’s only cycle 4 and that these things take time. Xx

Thankyou @MrsH497
I had a panic this morning as the test are two days apart and have not gotten significantly darker so had a small worry that something was wrong but the OH quickly snapped me out of it.
Wont test again now until thursday..mainly to check I've hit 4 weeks.

I didnt intend to test early; if you remember I never used to test...but I had a sore throat and broke out in a coldsaw which was very odd!! I just new my immune system had altered and so took a test!

@Jessikka lovely lines! Always love a positive happy story gives me hope!

Oops sorry just realised. It was the DPO I was unsure on. I know the pic dates as AF was 18/7.

:)
