Positive OPK - 4 days away from af

Emmaaa1990 · 23/08/2019 14:08

Hi ladies!

I seem to have a positive opk, correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to have 2 rather dark lines. I am 4 days away from AF And picked up my ovulation a couple of weeks back, I knew because of temp and ewcm.

Could this be picking up a very early pregnancy?

Let me know what you all think? 😘

@Emmaaa1990 morning 😊 yes this afternoon! I'm not sure what to expect as it is a "group session" first and then I meet the midwife separately.

How have you been feeling? I'm so so tired I can't believe it's hit me like this. The last couple of days I've struggled with dizziness as well which I'm a bit worried about but will mention it today.

Have you got your 1st midwife appointment booked yet? Xxxx

@BeautyAndTheBump1 aww congratulations! Have a lovely day!

@May2311 omg yes! I've done 6 but did my last one last Sunday! I'm 2 first responses, 2 normal clearblue and 2 digital ones 😂😂😂 I've stopped since then but I totally have thought about it! What is wrong with us?! Think I just got used to peeing on things 😂🙈 xx

@BeautyAndTheBump1 aww how lovely! Congratulations in advance! Feeling ok just a little rough this morning( sort of hungover feeling!) - just been doing my shopping list with all the healthy pregnancy food google recommends😂🙄 I wonder how long I stick to it!

@Emmaaa1990 do you still have the urge to pee on a stick? Just to check it's still real? 🙈 I'm trying to avoid doing it as don't want to be doing that for 9 months!!

BeautyAndTheBump1 · 06/09/2019 08:27

@Emmaaa1990 I'm okay, I get married in 2 weeks so this TWW should be easy 😂 how are you feeling?!

@May2311 no I'm currently CD23, my cycles are 38! 😫 how are you feeling? 🙊

@FearnRJ oh I definitely need to invest! I brought a sports bra earlier at lunch but rushed and didn't try it and it's too tight 🙈 I'm resorted to a gym too thing tonight but they are already agony 🙄🙈 will have to venture into primark I think!

Luckily we got a while yet 🙈 I think I'd like a water birth!

@May2311 boob on fire made me crack up 😂the joys! X

@Emmaaa1990 yes the boobs are the biggest one for me at the minute. I've found wearing a sports type bra/vest for bed has really helped I've been wearing one for the past week. They were waking me up when I turned over cause the ache so much but that holds them in. They have them in primark about £5.

Yes labour scares me too 🤣 x

@FearnRJ I'm with you on the sore boobs! Mine are so sore they kept waking me up because I couldn't get comfortable last night! I'm weeing more, hungry and abit of sickness.

Oh wow that's insane! I'd love to feel no pain in labour, worried about that already and I've got months to go yet! 🙈 x

@MajorFaffington Thanks! That's made me feel better knowing it happened to you😊

@FearnRJ thank you! Congratulations to you too!

I have one boob on fire tonight! 😂😂

FearnRJ · 05/09/2019 20:07

@Emmaaa1990 extremely sore boobs, tiredness, so bloated and nausea on and off but this only started on Monday.

Have you had many symptoms? I know some people that have hardly any, a girl I work with had nothing at all and sailed through her pregnancy she didn't even experience any pain in labour either. I'll probably be the total opposite 🤣 x

@MajorFaffington ah Thankyou 😊

@FearnRJ Thankyou! 😊 congratulations to you, are you having many symptoms? X

What a lovely thread this is I'm so glad you both got your BFP's ❤️

I got my BFP a few weeks ago currently due 29th of April I was 6 weeks yesterday x

MajorFaffington · 05/09/2019 19:20

What a lovely thread! I was rooting for you both! Congratulations:

@May2311 Don’t worry about your dates being wrong- the midwife can only go by your last period date as a guide to begin with. When you go for your 12 week dating scan they will work out your gestation and due date by measuring the baby. In my current pregnancy I was due 19th October by period date but this was put back to 28th October due to measurements on scan (I knew this would be the case because I knew I had ovulated really late).

May2311 · 05/09/2019 18:34

@BeautyAndTheBump1 thanks😊 your positive OPK is that just before AF is due?

@May2311 yeah apparently! My friend had her scan at 7 weeks I believe the heartbeat forms around 6 so they say after that's a good time! I'm hoping they see one anyway! Otherwise maybe my dates are wrong! I don't think they are tho my last period was 1st August!

It's scary isn't it 🙈

@GoldLeafTree that would be amazing if you did conceive this month! Definitely update us with what happens 😊 x

This is my very first month TTC. AF due next week around the 13th according to Flo.

I've got lots of cramps and aches this afternoon and a pulling feeling too.

Last night I had a stitch in my left side that was incredibly painful too, it woke me up! However it's only my first month so I'm not overly hopeful

May2311 · 05/09/2019 17:04

@Emmaaa1990 will they be able to hear a heartbeat at 7 weeks usually? Do you know what I can't stop stressing over the midwife saying I'm 5weeks + 5 today 😂 i know I'm not as I would have got a positive test earlier! So I'm worrying that I'll go for my first scan and then they will think something is wrong because baby isn't as big as it should be! 🙈 I know I'm being daft because she has explained that they have to go back last period.

@GoldLeafTree how are you feeling today? When is AF due? Xxx

Emmaaa1990 · 05/09/2019 10:43

@GoldLeafTree ahh Thankyou!!! I hope this is your month! How long have you been TTC?

That sounds exciting, keep us posted when you test!

@May2311 haha bless her! Yeah the personalities would be the best way I guess!

Yeah I will do 2 weeks exactly today as I'm now 5 weeks according to my LMP, I'm just hoping everything is okay. X

OP posts:
May2311 · 05/09/2019 05:37

@Emmaaa1990 😂😂😂 yes my mum even though she has them full time whilst my sister is at work gets them mixed up. I can tell the difference- it's mainly their personalities so if you ended up having 2 little beans in there I imagine they will be the same and have different personalities!

Let me know how you get on with your scan! I can't decide whether to have an early one or not.

@GoldLeafTree Thank you 😊 Good luck this month- fingers crossed for you. One thing I have learnt on the crazy TTC journey is your not out till AF arrives! 😂

GoldLeafTree · 04/09/2019 18:14

What a lovely wholesome thread, congratulations to you both!

I'm around 6/7 dpo now and feeling exhausted, occasional cramps and twinges, very achy and have sore boobs but it might be wishful thinking. This thread has got me really excited

I hope you both have happy and healthy pregnancies Flowers

@May2311 I mean I want 2 children so it would be job done but I'm not sure how I feel about pushing 2 out! I always worry that if I did have twins I wouldn't know which one was which I unless they were boy/girl!

Haha that sounds hectic but I can imagine it's lovely at the same time knowing how close they will be!

Let me know how you get on with your scan! X

May2311 · 04/09/2019 13:31

@Emmaaa1990 😂😂😂😂 you might be right!! My sister has twin girls - they are 2.5years absolutely gorgeous!!! Although understandably hard work. She is just finishing the potty training stage.... she ended up doing one at a time as she found it too hard watching both at once 😂

Emmaaa1990 · 04/09/2019 12:25

@May2311 yeah definitely normal 👍🏼 well last couple of days I've been starving and I cannot get full, weeing abit more too, boobs are also ridiculously sore. I think my hormones are so high tho Cos I picked up the test early didn't I 🙈 feel like it's starting to kick in at 5 weeks already 🙈

My partner keeps joking about twins I'm like oh god not sure how I feel about that 😂 x
