Hello and welcome!

I kinda wanted to make my own thread as I've been itching to POAS at only 7dpo 😒 I know I know... ridiculous right?

So need you lovely ladies to join in and keep each other distracted, share your experience, have a giggle/cry together and most importantly have each others support during BFNs and BFPs.

Please feel free to jot down your cycle/dpo info and when your AF is due so we can all keep a track of where we are!

This is also a thread where you are free to post any thoughts, poems, pictures, recipes, dreams and aspirations, the good the bad and the ugly 😝

As always stay safe and baby dust to you all!

@SITL1992 I see a line, fingers crossed x

GreysLove · 15/06/2020 08:19

@maybe333 congrats that's a stronger line than yesterday! How exciting!

@runnerttc sorry this wasn't your month :( have a gin!

I'm holding off testing until at least Wednesday AF due on Sat according to app but with last month's mad cycle who knows. I'm getting to that scared to test point cos I don't want the disappointment. Almost easier to test too early as you're expecting the bfn, and when that's true you can rationalise it and keep the hope alive! Anyone else feel that?

Such a boring weekend in lockdown nothing to do but symptom spot. Boobs still a bit sore but less each day with the odd pain. Been really tired and low energy normally I workout first thing and always get my 10k steps in but done nothing for days (probably why I'm tired and bored 😂).

Have an extra day off work today so must fill the time and not test!

2020mission · 15/06/2020 07:38

@runnerttc same, negative FRER at 10 DPO here. Fingers crossed for you for July!

@SITL1992 good line progress there - congrats!

runnerttc · 15/06/2020 06:51

@Maybe333 I can definitely see a line!! Congratulations!
Unfortunately my heart rate and temp have both dropped today at 10DPO, also BFN on IC. I'm out.
Welcome newbies, best of luck to everyone else this cycle x

bananabread2000 · 15/06/2020 05:24

Hi everyone, can I join please?

I'm 39 TTC #2 after a MC last year
Cycle 8
Cycle day 22
6DPO
AF due 22nd

It's my wedding anniversary on the 18th so I'm tempted to test then but I will only be 10dpo and I might ruin my day I it's a BFN.....I'm so bad with testing, I drive myself crazy!

SITL1992 · 15/06/2020 04:26

@Maybe333 I haven't slept much so im currently awake and was dying for a loo so thought I'd do a test now. It's not even 24 hours since the last one but what do you think?

I definitely see a line @SITL1992, test again tomorrow with FMU for sure ☺

LAG1986 · 15/06/2020 00:31

Please may I join.

I'm on cycle 4
9 dpo approx
Trying for number 3# but 1st with new partner.

I'm waiting till af is late to test, because I feel like I been jinxing it. Every time I test early af arrives 1-2 days early, normally the same day as testing. Hmm

Hopingtobelucky · 14/06/2020 23:45

Can I join please, I'm 36 TTC #1
Cycle 11
Cycle day 20
DPO 7
CP in April
Due to test 23/06/2020

This month I've just pre-seed, conceive plus tablets, magnesium, vitamin D, ate pineapple everyday since ovulation and drank pomegranate juice.

Hadn't used OPK before but decided to for the last cycle as after my CP wanted to check incase of any changes to my cycle so last month my ovulation date was showing you 1 day later then when I though and this month it was 2 days earlier so think I'll carry on using them.

I read lots of these types of threads and always felt a bit late to join but hoping I've caught this one early enough. It always strikes me how a group who has never met can be so supportive and invested in each others stories.
Wishing you all lots of luck x

Muffin0107 · 14/06/2020 20:22

@wenders4 - thanks. Lucky number (cycle) 8 hopefully 🤞🏼

wenders4 · 14/06/2020 20:20

Fingers crossed for you @SITL1992

We're both be in it together next month @Muffin0107!

SITL1992 · 14/06/2020 20:06

@wenders4 the top one is today, the lines show up more in person but so hard to get a photo of it! Bottom one was yesterday. I did the one today not long ago so not fmu, going to redo tomorrow morning and see what that says, af due Tuesday so should know soon enough.. Don't want to get my hopes up!

Muffin0107 · 14/06/2020 20:06

I caved and took a test as AF hasn’t shown today and got a bfn, disappointing so I’ll probably just have to wait for AF and try again next cycle 😕

wenders4 · 14/06/2020 20:01

Thank you @Anastacia1

@SITL1992 I can see a line in the top test in the photo. Which one was your first test and which one was your second?

Anastacia1 · 14/06/2020 19:55

@runnerttc @Muffin0107 thank you 😊
@wenders4 I use natural cycles App and they work it out for you ... you just need to put temp in every morning before you get out of bed no ovulation tests well I actually got them but didn't get them until after I had ovulated and but thankfully it's worked first time for us.☺️

tizzybelle · 14/06/2020 19:33

Hey ladies

I came off the pill last month and had a proper AF at the end of the month. So I guess this is our first real cycle of trying.

Cycle #1
CD 19
5 DPO (estimated)
TTC #1
Period due Weds 24th.

No idea when to start testing though. I’m not getting any symptoms but as it’s only 5 DPO it’s probably too soon. I bought some cheap tests off amazon though but not sure when I’ll pee on the stick! When will you ladies start testing do you think!

SITL1992 · 14/06/2020 19:24

What do people think about the top test in this pic?? Am I going mad?

runnerttc · 14/06/2020 19:18

Congratulations @Anastacia1!
I'm just praying my temps stay up the next few days!!

wenders4 · 14/06/2020 19:01

Congratulations @Anastacia1! Can I ask how you knew your ovulation date? Did you use the tests?

Muffin0107 · 14/06/2020 18:33

@Anastacia1 that’s great news, congratulations!

Anastacia1 · 14/06/2020 17:52

@2020mission thanks 😊 I'm 12DPO started getting faint positives on 9DPO but got the "pregnant" on the CB digital today still trying not to get too excited though

BronzeSilverGold13 · 14/06/2020 16:16

@CaramelTart23 good afternoon, I'm feeling okay today, still have a bit of nausea which isn't great and I'm still off food.

I really want to test but AF is due Tuesday so I think I'm going to wait until Wednesday to test.

I'm happy for them it just seems that they can do it without even thinking test I'm here tracking my cycle and wondering if today's the day the Red Devil will appear when I go for a pee in the morning😭.

I've been incredibly restless the last few days but as above my mind is on AF at the moment. I can't stomach custard as I've spent the last 3 years working in a kitchen for a meals on wheels business so we do a pudding with custard everyday and I'm sick of the sight of the stuff 😆

Once I've finished the bunny I'll post a pic I want to crochet her initials or her age as a little banner for the bunny to hold but need a different colour wool. I didn't use a crochet kit I just bought some things on amazon and found a simple-ish video to copy off. I have dyslexia so I find videos much easier than a written pattern. I can suggest some things to help if you want me to.

I'm just so mixed when it comes to temp at the moment DP is like a furnace all year round so its either almost unbearable to sleep next to him at the moment or I'm practically on his back like a backpack clinging on for warmth.

Ultimately I have a sneaky suspicion that it's going to be a BFN this month! (TMI) but I've been having a different smell and a lot more wetness than normal when AF is due but I can't be pregnant on the second cycle so I'm almost definitely not pregnant I suppose only time will tell!

When do you think you'll test or will you wait it out! I'm tempted to buy a good proper test if AF hasn't arrived by next weekend! But I'll be using my poundland ones until then

2020mission · 14/06/2020 16:16

@Anastacia1 congrats on your BFP 🙌 so pleased for you. How many DPO are you?

@wenders4 i feel your pain but you just need to focus on your next cycle now and try and have a break from thinking about it for now. I'm sure I'll be joining you for July and hopefully it will be a good month.

I'll test on a FRER tomorrow to confirm if I'm out.

Muffin0107 · 14/06/2020 16:13

@wenders4, everything crossed AF doesn’t appear xx

wenders4 · 14/06/2020 15:32

Did a test frer and negative. AF due today. Still nothing but last month was 5 days late then appeared. Guess I'm out.
