@SmileyT this is my TTC #2. I had some symptoms last month including spotting around 7dpo but it resulted in AF coming the worst I’ve ever had, fainting and horrendous vomiting. So, although there is a different feeling this time I’m trying not to get my hopes up. You’re so good for waiting that long, do you think you’ll cave before that? 🤣

@EllieJai44 it might just be the excitement that has shot the temp up 🤗

@Kodasmom I'm currently 9dpo so 9 days until my agreed test date of the 20th, so bloody ages, I'm sure there are people who haven't ovulated yet that will test before me 😂 11dpo is a good time to test as you should get a nice line on there, all your symptoms sound positive. I'm so lame and get so excited by others testing. Are you ttc #1?

@SmileyT I think I’ll rest on Thursday, if I can wait that long....the TWW is difficult especially now that there’s no work to keep me occupied. And because I’m only starting this journey I don’t exactly know what to expect. I’ve been googling everything and noticing every twitch. My DH thinks I’m going crazy. How many dpo are you???

@SmileyT I'm not sure, I feel rough today but I was up early so think its more tiredness, my temp for few days has been 37.5 🤷‍♀️ if it gets higher I may contact docs

@EllieJai44 such a strong line on that FRER 😍 are you a bit unwell at the minute, I'm sure I read last time I was pg that you should contact a Dr if your temp goes over 37.5 xx

@KRK05 hope your bloody period or BFP arrive soon it's so annoying waiting especially with no end date. Are the opks just showing as low right now? My BBT were 35.9 - 36.1 before ovulation and 36.5 everyday after ovulation. I think around 37 degrees is a post ovulation temp so hopefully that means you are close to something happening.

Welcome @Kodasmom when will you test?

@DKDK123 if you have been having sex regularly then you won't have missed it and I'd just keep testing as I had a random few higher test this month but then saw a clear peak on day 13 after a low the day before 🤞 I think sometimes our bodies try to ovulate and fail then try again a couple days later.

@beautifuldream that all sounds very positive to me 🤗

@Noble89 ahh so glad you are feeling positive, I've just got in from work (10-2 was enough today) I've got a really sicky feeling, not like I'm going to be sick but almost like I was sick all day yesterday and the remnants are left but tbh that could've just been my lunch 😂 will be such a nice surprise for him if you can get him a little treat. When I got in and took my daily LH test I was very tempted to do a HPT, resolve is weakening 🙈

@DKDK123 I will definitely be posting my tests as they progress haha

@EllieJai44 mine are crossed for you too for a smooth journey this time round, keep us updated on how you're progressing! I love hearing success stories 😁

@DKDK123 I will keep everything crossed for you!

Thanks @KRK05 going to keep tracking through this cycle just to see. Fingers crossed you're right about it being during the night of CD12 🤞 x

I hope you're right @EllieJai44, DTD last night and 2 nights before that so we'll def be covered if so! I hate when your body throws you off by doing something different, then again 9cycles in and it hasnt worked so far so maybe different is the time I'll be lucky 🤞

@DKDK123 CD12 looks very promising, I would keep tracking & if line doesnt get dark again I'd say u ovulated later on at night on CD12 x

@DKDK123 I wonder if you would have had your positive overnight on CD12 as that test in afternoon is very close to positive!

@EllieJai44 it's not exact each month but
usually between day 14-16 I did think 12 was very early but just the contrast in the tests straight to almost nothing again makes me think its came early as usually I get a steady rise in colour. I'm usually wearing a pantyliner by now too due to the increase in cm, have never felt this dry even when out with my ovulation window. Who knows what's going on, I'm going to continue to DTD anyways you never know 🤷‍♀️

@KRK05 so do you! I have everything crossed!

@DKDK123 How long are your cycles normally? Cycle day 12 is still very early! I didnt ovulate till cycle day 18!

Dont think May is going to be the month for me, dont think I've ovulated this month 😢 I'm on cycle day 12 and I was thinking yesterday it's very bizarre as usually I have a lot of increased cm right through my fertile window and I've been totally dry this month (sorry if too much info!) I thought maybe I was just going to ovulate late this month, have been using ovulation strips from day 8, the line got slightly darker yesterday (not dark enough for positive) and today it was right back to faint again. I thought maybe I'd drank too much water the first time or was too early in the day so waited till now to try again and the line is non existent 🙁. There's always the slightest chance I did ovulate yesterday but given the lack of cm and the test line wasnt as dark as it usually goes I think the boat has sailed this month. Just crossing my fingers it's a one off and not a sign I'm hitting early menopause or something 😬

@EllieJai44 Got everything crossed for u lovely u definitely deserve it after everything you've been through 🥰💕

@DKDK123 thank you! :)

Congratulations @EllieJai44 theres no doubt that's a positive 🥳 Try not to worry I know easier said than done given the past, shall cross everything for you that the line just keeps getting stronger and you have a nice smooth pregnancy 🤞

@KRK05 thats sounds horrible :( hopefully 🤞

@EllieJai44 My first MMC was 10 weeks, second was around 6 weeks & my Ectopic was just basically a prolonged MC just awful having to go every 48 hours to the hospital for 2 weeks, as awful as it sounds my two MC were easier to deal with. It's understandable why u would be nervous but try not to stress or worry 💜 once u pass the mark from your previous MC youl feel much better. This will be your time 🙏🏼💕

@KRK05 sorry you've experienced that! I've had 3 myself! The most recent was baby died at 9 and half weeks, we had seen a heartbeat at 8 weeks 🤦‍♀️ i hope no one has to go through any of that!

@EllieJai44 Aw try not to worry I haven't even heard a story on women can only carry a certain gender (I've never researched it though) I just know the Male sperm determines the gender. My 2 MC were after AF 🤷🏼‍♀️ & my Ectopic this year was before AF. Youl be fine your line is actually great for 10DPO 🤞🏻💜

@Kodasmom All your symptoms sound positive I hope it's your month 🤞🏻 as for too early to POAS I have no clue I think 10DPO is the earliest but some do get a BFP before then. Good luck!

Hi all, I hope you don’t mind me joining. Congrats to all the BFPs, I love gearing good news!

I am 8dpo and I’ve woken today feeling awful, tired, cramping, eating everything but then feeling sick. This is only our second month of TTC and last month I was convinced I had symptoms so don’t want to get my hopes up. Is it too early to POAS?? Xx

@KRK05 hopefully its just because you ovulated late and then it will be positive! 🤞

hmm in a way I hope not as all my previous miscarriages were before AF due that I got a positive....someone once said to me that I might not be able to carry boys and now I have that stuck in my head 🤦‍♀️

@EllieJai44 Nope I'm always regular 28 day cycles, I mean in the past very few times I have been 1 or 2 days late but never this long, I am gonna take a test on Wednesday when I'm a week late & then that way il know for sure (even though I dont think I'm pregnant just a off month probably) I think we get the feeling when were pregnant or not & I just dont have those feelings I just think Mother Nature is hating on me 🙄😂

That's funny u say that cause 2 of my friends & my sister all with there daughters didnt get a positive pregnancy test until a while after their AF with their daughters but before AF with their sons, I read that someplace else too, something to do with girls implant late & boys implant earlier. I mean probably not accurate just an old wifes tale 🤷🏼‍♀️
