Aw I know. Each time I've tested even though I know it's too early to test probably I have got a bit disappointed. It's a bit like playing the lottery isn't it!!! I think I'm just going to wait till AF day before I think about testing again.

HalfPenny28 · 27/11/2019 17:45

@EightiesBaby I'm afraid to test with a frer because I know if it's negative it's most probably right and I don't want to let go of hope yet 😅 I'm being ridiculous.

Second month of trying for us so same as you not too long but it feels like years!

I have frer on the way from amazon so I'm going to test on Friday I think when I'm 10/11 dpo and hope for the best!

Hi @HalfPenny28 I'm good thanks 😊 only really had headaches and cm is a bit more noticeable and thinner I think, and massively irritable but u guess some of that's probably typical pmt 😂 Yeah I intended to get a frer but the tescos I went to didn't have them! So going to pop into the big sainsburys tomorrow instead. Its only ttc month 1 for me so not too worried, and also would prefer a Sept baby as I teach but what will be will be Smile How about you?

HalfPenny28 · 26/11/2019 21:22

@EightiesBaby I've heard the blue line tests aren't as sensitive as the red ones so maybe try with a frer tomorrow 🙂how're you feeling?

EightiesBaby · 26/11/2019 18:00

Did an ultra early clear blue this afternoon... Negative but possibly too early to test, will use the other one tomorrow or Thursday morning as they recommend an am test... Oh well Brew

EightiesBaby · 25/11/2019 18:28

Hi @Jojowash! Fingers crossed for you! What you've gone through sounds tough xXx
It's quite a minefield to navigate getting pregnant isn't it? I'm a bit peeved as my clue app changed my ovulation date backwards by two days today, after no logged I had a headache Hmm luckily we dtd on that day but who knows...?! If that's the case I'm actually further along than thought @7dpo so I ran a test but nothing can of it, obvs too early...might buy a FRER ( first response test?!) tomorrow though... Not feeling too positive as it's only first month of TTC but can hope Wink

Kliz92 · 25/11/2019 11:06

@EightiesBaby I have done that too! All my baby shower ideas 😂. Xx

Today I'm 3DPO!

I'm 40 and have had two consecutive missed miscarriages. I absolutely fearful!

Had results from last miscarriage and baby was a boy 💔 and there was no chromosomal issues. So basically my body has let me down twice miscarrying two healthy babies.

Have some blood tests to try and find cause on 2nd December. Although I just couldn't miss another egg, so we have dtd over ovulation day. I know it's silly but I can't keep waiting and waiting.

I really believe that with baby aspirin and progesterone I will be ok, I pray! Going to have to work on my doctor to prescribe me it. Have ordered a home progesterone test to be done on Friday 7 days post ovulation to see if generally my progesterone is low.

I will beg the doctor to test when pregnant again.

I had two boys when I was 23 & 26 without problems, now facing problems and desperate for another little one with my partner who isn't the dad of my boys.

TWW isn't my fear it's keeping my pregnancy. But it has to start somewhere.

EightiesBaby · 24/11/2019 20:07

Aw I've just created a secret Pinterest page for all things baby and pregnancy Smile proving a valuable outlet for all this TWW and wow there's some cute stuff out there!!!Xx

Kliz92 · 24/11/2019 11:27

@HalfPenny28 you right it's awful! When I had my first child the month I conceived was the month I had no signs what so ever!!! Xx

HalfPenny28 · 24/11/2019 10:41

I'm getting next to no symptoms this time so I'm not holding much hope out for this month :( although I don't know how anyone can ever tell! Whoever designed this two week wait thing is a monster 😂

Kliz92 · 24/11/2019 10:37

@EightiesBaby I know what you mean!! Fingers its a positive sign!! The wait is killing me!!!! Xxx

Hello @HalfPenny28 @Lf89 and @Kliz92 again! I'm now 4dpo and feel my nips are a little sensitive but I wonder if that's just me being hypersensitive looking for anything! Although I did read somewhere that the blastocyst secretes HCG once formed so who knows Confused xx

Kliz92 · 23/11/2019 20:55

It is really difficult when all the signs is the ones you have! Ahh I see I haven't heard of that before!!! I tested yesterday as my partner asked me to but obvs it said no. Part of me wanted disheartened as I thought it would be too early anyway if I was pregnant but just got to keep fingers crossed without getting carried away!! Xxx

HalfPenny28 · 23/11/2019 18:12

@Kliz92 so annoying isn't it. I could have sworn I had all the right signs. Pre seed is a fertility safe/promoting lubricant 😅it's not very romantic but apparently helps direct the swimmers in the right direction and normal lubricants aren't good when ttc as something in them stops mobility of sperm (apparently). This is our first month using it but I just don't have the feeling it's worked this month which is pessimistic but I sometimes just think you know. Saying that, I thought I knew last month and ended up testing twice a day until af arrived 😂🙋🏼‍♀️ x

Kliz92 · 23/11/2019 17:34

Let's hope it is all good signs. I have a gut feeling this month isn't my month. Not sure why.... Just a feeling, but we will see. 2 weeks to go!!! My fingers are crossed for you x

Hey, I'm 3DPO I think. I had a CP 3 weeks ago and got a peak on my clearblue OPK on tuesday so I'm hoping that means I ovulated Wed.

My boobs are sooo sore and huge and I've been feeling so tired the last two days. Similar symptoms to what I had last month but trying to not get my hopes up in case it's just my hormones all over the place.

Kliz92 · 23/11/2019 08:21

@HalfPenny28 your right!! I have brought Internet cheapies though but just lots of them 🤦🏻‍♀️😂. I havent brought any vitamins atm but definitely going to look into getting them. When you have all these signs it's so difficult not too test. But atm it's far too early to anyway so that's what is stopping me for now 😂😂 what is pre seed? I haven't heard of it.... Thankyou are for you too xx

HalfPenny28 · 23/11/2019 08:11

@Kliz92 it's my second month now 🙂 trying to be more relaxed with the two week wait this time as I drove myself absolutely bonkers last month. Advice would be don't waste money on a bazillion tests 😂 I spent a small fortune testing and it still didn't give me the result I wanted! I ended up buying the internet cheapies for this month. Invested in some folic acid and vitamin d also and using pre seed this month (as romantic as that is 😂) got my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼 xx

Kliz92 · 23/11/2019 07:50

Hi @HalfPenny28 it is hard to explain to them. I think he just sees the signs are thinks that must be it 😂. Well I hope so, it's just soo hard not to get carried away with it all. I going to try my hardest to wait too! Nearly 2 week wait 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️. It is my first month. How about you? Xx

HalfPenny28 · 23/11/2019 07:07

Hi 👋🏼🙂 I'm currently 5dpo and my husbands the same haha I think I've blown his mind explaining how the process actually works. Your symptoms sound positive! I'm trying to wait as long as possible this cycle to test! Is this your first month trying?

Kliz92 · 22/11/2019 20:00

Wish you all the best! Please do let me know how you get on! Would be nice to stay in touch with someone xx
