@SmileyT thank you ☺️ it's only our second cycle so we would be super lucky, but will see how this week goes. I've been looking into the CB OPK this morning after the chat on here last night, so I feel better that next cycle might be more accurate if we're not lucky this time ☺️

Haha I'm the same, we need each other to squint at tiny lines, symptom spot and learn new things about conception lube with 🤣 he's just so chilled, 'it'll happen' is his favourite response after I've banged on for about 10 mins on ovulation cycles x

I find MN calming too! It's nice to have people to talk to in the same position. The only negative impact sometimes is wanting to test early 🤣

@KateColx ahh I'm sorry that it wasn't the best news this morning but you aren't out until your period arrives and if it does just mark it up as another practice run and you'll be all ready to go next cycle. And lol to our OHs not wanting us on MN, I don't think mine understands that it actually calms me down reading that others are in the same boat, I'd be worse without it 😂

@KRK05 I know right how typical I don't want to symptoms spot due to not having any before and I have nausea all the fucking time 🤣🤪

@SmileyT haha id never heard the saliva one, can't wait to tell the OH that one 🤣 he also has told me to stay off MN because he thinks I'm driving myself crazy 😬 x

@Adrianoska eeek congrats!! That's great news ✨💕 You must be so pleased. X

I done another FRER test this morning as I'd now be in the 6 days early category and no sign of a second line ☹️ starting to think the very faint one last week was a fluke. I've got one more test so might use that mid week or just wait to see if AF arrives on Friday. Hope you all have lovely Sunday's ☺️ x

10dpo for me today, still very slight crampy feeling but no sore throat today. I feel my cramps are AF related as they've now been here constantly for 4 days so surely if they were implantation cramps they wouldn't last so long 🤔

@KRK05 We are all learning stuff every day 🤓 and yeah my OH actually told me to get off MN because he thought it was driving me crazy but I just swept that comment under the carpet 🤣

@Adrianoska Ahhh I am so happy for u, congratulations u must be over the moon💜 just the good news we all need to remind us why to enjoy it x

@babyG123 I'd try not to worry, u have a mini pill baby 😜 I really really hope it's a BFP for u cause that's a symptom u just cant ignore, sounds very promising 🤞🏻 although I do hope u stop feeling so sicky soon x

@SmileyT I just had a giggle at the last one about saliva, I cant wait to tell my OH that one in the morning 😂😂 hes gonna be so over the TTC rules & banning me from my phone so I don't find out any more 🙄

Just popping back to give you all some hope that I always craved so.much!

9dpo
Symptoms since 5dpo.
I don't know why but I decided to test this evening and two faint but positive tests are now in my shaking hands! I can't quite believe it!

Don't give up girls! I am 36, TTC for 5 cycles, my cycles are super short, too!

Omg I hope it will stick 😁😁😁🌸

@KateColx @KRK05 @Ltay2 Pizza was amazing definitely what I needed, as soon as AF arrives I'll be cracking open the gin 🥰 I've never really noticed anything around ovulation because I wasn't trying before but noticed some dull movements on my right side today - who knows might just be gas 😂

Also in reference to still learning, I'm exactly the same... learnt more about conception and how my body works in the last 6 weeks than I have in the previous 31 years. 1. You don't get pregnant just by having sex around ovulation, it's not guaranteed even if everything works right. 2. Preseed or concieve plus lube are the go to if you're a tad dry down there and need to go 4 days in a row 🙈 3. Our bodies are actually warmer for half of each month. 4. Final and most upsetting to OH is that saliva is bad for conception, no oral during fertile week 😭

@KRK05 I did and had a little panic that for that very reason we may have been ruled out this month.

If I'm not pregnant though god knows what I've got because I've been outrageously nauseous the minute I wake until 2. Then the minute I go to bed. Currently wide away sitting up trying to focus on not being sick.
At least I got one proper meal in for dinner 😩

@babyG123 I have literally just found this out once I got to googling about lube & sperm, I never had a clue before 🙈😂

Just Incase you want to know girls there is special fertility lube. Who knew 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

Sounds exactly like my OH! They could be related haha. I know by the end of it will be able to actually tell somebody else who's unsure & know what I'm talking about 😂

It's so faint I swear I think its grey. I'm not gonna think too much of it & just wait until AF, it was just when I uploaded it saying I got a BFN then got all those replies I was like am I missing something here? But I guess some people probably go from their own experiences of faint lines so I'm not going to get my hopes up x

@KRK05 haha I was trying to explain to him earlier about how I might have got my ovulation dates wrong f his face was literally just like 😐 I think he's happy to stay out of the detail. He was exactly the same with the wedding haha. I'm so pleased it isn't just me, when I first started looking through the threads I was completely lost! Who knew TTC was such a science. We'll be absolute pros soon 😂

I can definitely see something!! In real life does it have colour or is it grey? X

@babyG123 haha what!! 😂 see, every day is a school day on here x

@babyG123 I definitely seen it when I looked at the test at 3 mins but it's not got colour to it, that's why I think indent or maybe even a slight evap line. I will hold out until AF on Thursday now, shes normally like clockwork anyway x

@KRK05 haha learn something new every day! 🤦🏻‍♀️

I do defo see a line but I haven't ever seen a indent before. Maybe try again in a few days?

@babyG123 Omg I hadnt heard that before either, thatl be me away investigating about lube & sperm 😂

@KateColx Hahahaha my OH was the same, weve both been educated so much this past month 🙈 I'm 28 have a 5 year old & I hadnt heard of Luteal Phase until about 2 weeks ago, honestly didnt even know my own body done as much as it did every single month. It's all bonkers & I feel stupid about it all, trying to keep up with everyone 😂 Looks like were both in the same boat, also our OHs 😜

Heres the picture, feel so silly uploading it cause I swear it's an indent line, surely every test has that hint of one 🤨 so everyone be honest cause in my opinion it's a BFN & I actually enjoy looking at everybody else's tests finding the lines 😂

@KRK05 upload to here?

@KateColx I learnt that normal lube makes sperm stick yesterday and not 'flow' 🤣 defo a few lessons on here!

@KRK05 I am so pleased it isn't just me that feels like this!! 😂 I'm 30 and literally didn't know half the stuff that I've learnt about on here over the past few weeks. I started telling OH earlier about ovulation tests and he thinks it's a bit much considering we're only in month 2, I wish I was as chilled as him 😂 so looks like I'll be hiding them from him haha.

Oh really? Pop it on here so we can hve a look! Eurgh I know I'm the same, one day I'm like I'll stop worrying, just DTD more and see how we go and then the next day I'm buying early pregnancy tests and reading about frigging short luteal phases.

Ah I so wish it was!! X

@Ltay2 I've watched the sinner it's so good ☺

@KateColx I think everything is so complicated when TTC, do this dont do that theres this huge list of rules I didnt even know existed 😂 I'm with u on the test strips though, look so confusing 🤷🏼‍♀️ I figured il do both to compare them, CB in morning & One Step in the evening.

On another note I uploaded my test picture on another thread saying I got a BFN & 6 have replied saying theres a line 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm 1000% positive it's the indent line I can see & I seen it when I looked at the test after 3 minutes so I'm just definitely holding out for AF cause I have no positive feelings for this cycle what so ever, I feel like I've spent the past 3 weeks one day chilled out the next day obsessed with everything I'm gonna send myself insane 🙈

My OH told my 5 year old cause he was asking where babys comes from has been for ages now (at that curious age) that u go to a seed shop & it gets put in the mums belly button then grows into a baby. I mean it's the most stupid story ever so I took nothing to do with it cleared the room but why isnt this true 😂

You've reminded me I haven't made pizza from scratch in ages! Might suggest that to OH for next weekend ☺️ you may have already seen it but we watched a good series on Netflix recently called Sinner.
