Just that really - trying to keep away from the early testing. Anyone else waiting?

How are you both feeling this AM have you tested yet? X @Curious012 @laurah92

Fawnandwren · 24/04/2020 10:22

Morning Ladies @Curious012 @laurah92 vitamins me and DH are taking: Maca Root, CoQ10 (high absorption), Ashgwwanda, Vitamin C and I take broccoli sprouts for my skin. I have tried a few variations after seeing nutritionists, just having lots of veg and fruit and no sugar in my tea and lots of water. I've also read consuming high fat dairy, but I don't really do that.
We will go for the tests when we are out of this Lockdown, unless by some miracle I get pregnant. The supplements cost a fortune, it is really important to get good quality ones which are often not the cheap options x

@laurah92 sorry for the late reply, I was so moody yesterday that I decided it was best to turn off my phone and just chill out in the garden with a book. OH coped it bless him. I’m not normally moody like this. Think it’s all the change lately with being at home and not being able to work. OH is still working just from home so I’m trying to keep out of his way so I’m not distracting him.
Will you test anymore or just going to wait to see if af comes or not.

Curious012 · 24/04/2020 09:10

@laurah92 no symptoms at all I don’t think just still feeling tired and a bit off like sickly but that could be any number of things. No sore boobs or anything like that so not holding out loads of hope - lets see if AF shows her ugly face this month.. still a few more days to go 😒
How are you today? X
@Fawnandwren I know what you mean I was religiously on the pill so scared of accidentally getting pregnant for years and now it’s not bloody happening, typical! I agree I love reading along on the threads on here with others going through the same. I think if you go by friends or people you know it seems everyone just falls straight away but that’s definitely not the case for loads of people
Hopefully you will see BFP in the next few months with just nutrition and diet - what vitamins do you take at the moment? X

@Suki2020 I know, our bodies can be so horrible to us and play tricks on us, last month, I was so convinced that I was pregnant, I was 3-4 days late too then BAM she showed her ugly face. This month I have no clue what's going on, I don't think it's going to be my month, I've given up on this month, just going to wait till af comes and then start again, fingers crossed 🤞 for you, sending lots of baby dust your way x

Suki2020 · 23/04/2020 15:25

@laurah92 it’s so strange I’ve never had this before. Just have to wait and see if my period comes this weekend like I think it should or whether the fertility friend app is correct if so will have to wait until 5th May. I’m so sure I ovulated around 7th April but the app puts it at 17th. I’m so moody today, had a headache on and off for 5days now and been bloated for a week. Not sure if it’s my body playing tricks on me.

laurah92 · 23/04/2020 12:50

@Fawnandwren oh know I'm so sorry to hear that!! Our body's can really be horrible to us and trick us, i was a few days late last month and really got my hopes up and then she showed her ugly face. This whole ttc is so stressful. Are you still going to have the tests done? X

laurah92 · 23/04/2020 12:46

@Suki2020 same, I'm still getting wcm now, so confusing, we are still dtd every other day anyways just to make sure x

laurah92 · 23/04/2020 12:42

@Curious012 I know the tww feels like a month, it's hell. I wouldn't mind so much to go through that wait if it actually did result in something 🤰 I'm ok, feel very tired today and my boobs are so sore and swollen, can't even wear a bra. Atleast your half way through now, hopefully not to much longer for you to wait, so hope you get your bfp this month 🤞🤞apart from feel shattered, are you getting any other symptoms? X

Fawnandwren · 23/04/2020 12:42

@Curious012 I know, I have never really liked AF coming I used to b2b my pills every other month when I was younger. Now I get it like clockwork, it is just so annoying and there's no way I wouldn't know if I was pregnant now.
I don't think there's any point rearranging just yet, as we don't know when things will be back to normal. But I have let them know that I want the appointment, just best to have those resources for sick people right now. It's just going to be lots of trying ourselves with supplements and diet for now. Nice to have supportive threads like this, even seeing others getting BFP gives me hope that one day I will have a BFP x

Curious012 · 23/04/2020 12:19

@Fawnandwren
Ah that is so annoying that AF has turned up!! This whole TTC business is definitely much more stressful than I had anticipated and we’ve only been going a couple of months.. hopefully you get your BFP soon 🤞🏻
Have they given you a new date for tests given the whole CV situation? x

Morning Ladies @Curious012 and @laurah92 so normally I get AF during the night, I woke up this AM so happy to find nothing. Had a cup of tea and went for a wee and BAM there she is 😢 honestly sometimes it is just really hard trying. I know a few people who tried for a year and got pregnant, so I know not everyone is straight away. Before CV DH was booked in with a Urologist and I was having a scan to check my follicles on my request. We know DH has a low sperm count anyway. Hope you both don't see AF this month 🍀🍀 xx

Curious012 · 23/04/2020 11:00

@littlebee1990 I know! I’m going to try and hold out. Tbh I think I will see AF before the 30th as my cycles are always 27/28 days which should be Saturday. I’ll probably cave if I don’t see AF by Monday haha. How are you feeling?

OP posts:
Littlebee1990 · 23/04/2020 10:45

AF is 29th for me! Are you planning on testing before? I think I’ll end up using FRER this weekend as I just can’t bloody help myself!

Curious012 · 23/04/2020 10:35

Hi @littlebee1990 7DPO here just seems to be forever to wait! What day is AF due for you?
Hope you’re OK Smile fingers crossed this is the month! x

OP posts:
Littlebee1990 · 23/04/2020 10:05

Hope everyone is ok today.. hopefully not too much longer for us all to wait to test x

Curious012 · 23/04/2020 09:08

Hi @Suki2020 and @Fawnandwren how are you doing today? I’m trying not to come on here everyday as I feel I’m getting a bit obsessed with the days. 7DPO here and I feel really headachy and tired. Not sure if that’s just constantly being on the computer though!

@laurah92 halfway through the TWW for me feels like bloody forever. CD 25 today so j would normally see AF on day 27/28 but app is showing me 30th. I’m hoping if she does come it’s on the 30th though as it gives me a longer luteal window. How are you feeling today? I feel shattered! No I don’t use Facebook anymore got rid a couple of years ago, too many people I went to school with on there haha x

Suki2020 · 22/04/2020 13:13

Glad I’m not the only one ovulating late. Although I had egg white on 7th April and it’s been watery ever since (sorry to much info) so I’m confused. Hoping I still have a chance this month as it now says I’m 5DPO and we were still DTD when it now states I ovulated.

laurah92 · 22/04/2020 12:24

@Suki2020 I have ovulated late this month too, thought I was over a week post ovulation but temp never went up, did another test and got another peak, it's a good job we are still dtd just got make sure x

laurah92 · 22/04/2020 12:22

@Fawnandwren maybe your still testing to early?! If af still hasn't come in 1-2 days then do another test. Maybe implantation occurred a bit later. Keep me posted 🤞🤞 x

Littlebee1990 · 22/04/2020 12:16

Morning lovely ladies! I was just making lunch and thought AF came early as felt like I’d got wet down below but went to the toilet and I’ve got so much milky discharge, never had that before.. still hope I guess x

Suki2020 · 22/04/2020 11:31

Morning ladies, how are you all this morning? So my temp chart has changed this morning and is now saying I ovulated late day 26. I got a BFN on a pregnancy test yesterday as I thought I was 14 DPO (days post ovulation) and then this morning my chart changed so confusing.

Fawnandwren · 22/04/2020 10:36

@laurah92 hello sorry I missed this, hope you have a good day today? I'm 13dpo due yesterday or today AF, just tested and had a BFN so AF will probably come later today or tomorrow. Bit disheartening, as I had a feeling it may have been this month. But no 😞 hope you get your BFP this month 🍀 x

laurah92 · 21/04/2020 15:47

@Curious012 yea exactly, plus I think it will be a nice surprise and some nice news when you tell them that your pregnant 🤰 I can't wait to see the look on my mum and sisters face when I tell them. I think the more people that know that your trying, they just keep asking and it puts more pressure on you. Yea my boobs started really hurting from Sunday but I think that's cause of ovulation. I would only be 1/2 dpo atm so apart from really sore boobs I don't really have any symptoms. I hope this tww hurry's up, I'm so impatient, I just want to know if We have done the job or not, it's hell. Are you on Facebook? X

Curious012 · 21/04/2020 15:24

@laurah92 no we haven’t mentioned it, partly because we thought it would just ‘happen’ and we wouldn’t be actively TTC but also both of our families mention us having a baby all the time so any sniff that it is actually going to happen would throw them into overdrive 😂
Got all my fingers crossed for you that this is the month 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Feeling a bit headachy and boobs are achy today but I’m desperately trying not to symptom spot! x
