Just wondering if there's anybody else out there that's due their AF around the same time as me. I definitely ovulated last Tuesday as I've been using the Clearblue ovulation digital test, & I also felt pretty sharp pain coming from my left ovary that day. I'm now 5DPO & yesterday & today I've been getting a dull achiness on & off on my left side. If there is anyone that's around the same time as me, I just thought we could keep each other updated on our symptoms☺️ AF not due for another 10 days so I hope it's not coming early 🤞🏻

Fabulous news @Ashworth90! Congrats again 🤗 Im still doing the frers at 19DPO today. Im so terrified of a chemical (ive had two losses consecutively last year so the anxiety is naturally high). All going well though! 🤞🤞
This will be my first baby too, all going well. They generally do book you in between 10 -12 weeks for dating scan. So between now and then I think thats it. Unless your Gp wanted to do Hcg levels but you prob dont even need that. How are you feeling? I dont have very many cramps at all, but when i do it lasts for about 5 seconds and is sharp! Nausea really kicking in today, as well as feeling so tired. I could sleep at drop of a hat!!
Im having an early scan at 7 weeks due to my past history of miscarriage. Im also under the care of a consultant as a not so straight forward pregnancy but my Doc is wonderful I must say. Id have preferred midwife care but I dont mind once I get to hold my baby!!

Keep in touch, ita so lovely to have someone to share these early days with, at almost similar time! 🎉💕💖🥳👶🤰🤞 xx

Ashworth90 · 30/04/2020 16:30

@babytobe I’m happy to hear everything is going good so far! 😊 I did my sixth and final test today at 16dpo which was the CB digi. Positive! Woohoo! 😂 spoke to my GP today and he said to book in for my first appt with the midwife there at 10 weeks. I know nothing about this stuff... is 10 weeks about average? So basically, you just keep on as you are for now? 😂

Babytobe · 30/04/2020 16:11

@ashworth90 im still here! So far so good anyway. Sad also to see the thread end but wishing all the rest of you ladies so much luck for month ahead. Will be checking in to see how you are all doing! X

Chlo2701 · 30/04/2020 15:02

I really thought that I might of been pregnant this month as had a very very faint line on a test, & my boobs were throbbing like they've never throbbed before, but I came on Sunday morning. It woke me up it was that painful. Finally finished AF today though, so need to start tracking ovulation soon. I started this thread a few weeks ago, but would love to be added to the new one! X

Fab idea, please count me in when set up. AF hasn't shown up for me yet. But don't think she'll be far away, with the cramps I'm having xx

Littlebee1990 · 30/04/2020 13:34

@Ashworth90 - you are more than welcome still!! ❤️

Ashworth90 · 30/04/2020 13:13

I’m sad you guys are moving to another thread. I would love to still follow your TTC journey 😞💕 I wish you all the best xx

mumoftwobeauts · 30/04/2020 13:11

@Infused can I please be added too x

Elking18 · 30/04/2020 12:50

I'd love to be part of the may one if that's okay! My AF has just finished so ready for the next cycle.

Infused · 30/04/2020 11:58

Ok fab I will start another thread this afternoon. also, just a heads up but I've been looking at fertility lubricant. Conceive plus seems to be well reviewed so I might give that a go!

kirsteng04 · 30/04/2020 11:47

Yeah @infused that would be great! It's hard to keep up on the huge ones!
@Littlebee1990 awww that would be an amazing birthday present! I've got all my fingers crossed for you. Let's hope it's a good month for us all. Xx

Littlebee1990 · 30/04/2020 11:27

@Infused would love our own May thread! My AF is due on my birthday next month and it’s a big birthday that starts with 3 and ends with 0!

Littlebee1990 · 30/04/2020 11:26

AF arrived just now, hoping next month is luckier

Infused · 30/04/2020 11:25

Sorry to hear that Kirsten and Lag, lots of us in the same boat Sad

I think there is a May thread but it's a pretty big one, I could start another one and tag people from this thread if that makes it easier?

kirsteng04 · 30/04/2020 10:52

So sorry to all you girls who also had a visit from AF this week, mines showed her ugly face this morning with full force. No spotting or cramping to let me know she was coming just there, heavy and painful within minutes 😑 a May thread would be good! Has there already been one started?

LAG1986 · 29/04/2020 21:42

Af arrived 3 days early for me. Dont lose hope ladies xxx

Ary123 · 29/04/2020 21:31

Aw please don’t be deflated. It will happen lovely. Try stay positive xxx

Infused · 29/04/2020 21:26

Thank you lovely ladies, I'm so disappointed. I was trying so hard not to symptom spot but I had some really convincing symptoms and combined with the faint tests I felt gutted when the 'not pregnant' flashed up.

Chillout - you're right, it was as if AF was lying in wait!

I haven't mentioned this previously as it's still a bit difficult to talk about. But what makes this current situation even harder to accept is that 2.5 years ago I ended up conceiving by accident when we weren't even trying properly. We had sex once on day five of my cycle and husband withdrew although must have leaked a bit. I was utterly shocked to test positive but I ended up miscarrying at 8 weeks. We then decided to wait a while before trying again and here we are. I naively thought it would just work first time this month given what happened last time and that this time I'd done everything properly, tracked ovulation, lots of sex on the right days etc and nothing.

I just feel so deflated

Ary123 · 29/04/2020 21:19

My best friend has literally just rang me to tell me she is pregnant. So happy for her! Can’t wait for my turn 🤞🏻

Littlebee1990 · 29/04/2020 20:56

Thanks you lovely lot.. I know they say you’re not out until AF arrives but I have every period brewing system possible.

Ary123 · 29/04/2020 20:06

I just want my first natural period to start now after coming off the pill so I can start trying to track my cycles!

ChillOutChick · 29/04/2020 19:56

I've also got my AF so here we go again..

@Infused when I have tested in the past I have always got my AF immediately after. It's like it was waiting... Sorry you got a BFN this month.

Ashworth90 · 29/04/2020 18:58

@Infused, @Littlebee1990 and @Bic501 I’m really sorry lovelies 😞 sending you masses of luck for next month 🤞🏻💕 enjoy that chocolate xx
