@pineapplejuice20 that should be 14 DPO

chrissagcat · 28/07/2020 07:28

Fitbit says 15 @pineapplejuice20 but I really don't think it was as we DTD more about 4/5 days before (I know the little swimmers can hang about for longer though!) Mega kudos to you for holding off!!

This mornings test. Going on the hunt for a FR this morning. Seeing my mum tomorrow who lives 4 hours away so would love to tell her (we are very close I wouldn't tell anyone else)

2WW anyone?

If I ovalted after second peak I am know only 2dpo already going crazy!

SMB20 · 27/07/2020 21:50

@CausingChaos2 yes it all makes sense! Fingers crossed it can increase quite quickly! I am feeling a lot better than I was so I’m hoping my levels have come up. I have a referral for a new blood test so I’ll go get it done this week.

Currently symptom spotting like crazy! All I have is extreme crankiness, a weird cramp in my boobs and very faint nausea that comes and goes. Has anybody else got any symptoms?

Zee1988 · 27/07/2020 20:05

Hi guys - I thought AF came yesterday as had a small amount of red bleeding but only once. Since then only brown cm (sorry if tmi) and very slight when I wipe. Trying not to get my hopes up as poas this morning and was negative. Wasn’t expecting AF until 30th so can’t help but hope that maybe it was implantation bleeding maybe and I’m still in with a chance?! Yesterday would have been 11dpo so a chance right?

@chrissagcat honestly not sure if you haven't drank tons you might be okay! Give it a whirl anyway I'm excited for you 🤣🤣💗

SMB20 I haven’t looked in to it much, but it makes sense to me that it would. Iron levels needs to be around 70 for hair growth, so it would figure that low levels could affect conception and growth of a baby. Your body needs good levels to carry out basic functions.

I believe there is also a link between struggling to conceive with low Vit D, and thyroid issues, which can be common in people with low iron & B12.

SMB20 · 27/07/2020 12:25

@CausingChaos2 have you found much evidence that shows iron and b12 can impact your ability to conceive? A friend just conceived after 12 months and thinks it’s taken 12 months because of low iron.

chrissagcat · 27/07/2020 12:20

@pineapplejuice20 I'm at the shops now picking up a test - could I use the urine I have from this morning or does that not work?

pineapplejuice20 · 27/07/2020 12:15

@chrissagcat you could try but I'd do it with first morning urine just to make sure enough HCG to pick up as CB can be hard to detect if you're only early on! 🥰

CausingChaos2 · 27/07/2020 11:34

Thanks SMB20 I’ll have a look into the elevit and B supplements. I’m glad you managed to get some injections, it can take months to raise levels otherwise.

SMB20 · 27/07/2020 11:18

@CausingChaos2 I’m taking elevit but also a high iron supplement and B supplement. I’m trying to eat high iron foods like weetabix for breakfast and avoiding taking my supplements with caffeine! I did have some B12 injections initially too as mine was very low. I’m vegetarian so find it hard to get enough iron.

Congrats everyone on their BFPs! I still have at least a week to wait but going to try and wait 2!

Mctm123 · 27/07/2020 10:38

@chrissagcat that’s a definite positive, congratulations 🥳 xxx

CausingChaos2 · 27/07/2020 10:37

Hi all,

I’m 12dpo. Had a negative cheapie yesterday and so expecting AF to start tomorrow. Trying to keep things low pressure, have been having sex around fertile window for the last 3-4 months.

@SMB20 Do you mind me asking what you’re doing to improve your vitamin levels? My ferritin is only 26 so am taking iron tablets, but my B12 was also low (but in range) so GP won’t help with that one.

chrissagcat · 27/07/2020 10:14

@pineapplejuice20 thank you! Would you say it's too early to test with a CB?

Shaking

I had a phone call while taking the first one and threw it in the bin knowing it was out with the time. Told my husband it was negative anyway. But I've just gone back to the bin to check and thought there is a line there (even though past the time) so took another there and feel I can see something?!! First photo the one above is the one from the bin. Bottom is within 5 mins

2WW anyone?

Ooooh thanks @Hillcrofta & @pineapplejuice20 the thing is I’m looking at the test in real life now an it seems to have disappeared! So I don’t really trust it just yet. Plus in may I had something similar and then came on. May have been a chemical I’m not sure but I’ll just retest until AF. Reluctant to buy a frer just yet pineapple but if the lines get darker I will! Xx

@Mctm123 think I see something but definitely get a FR!

OP posts:
Hillcrofta · 27/07/2020 09:48

@Mctm123 I can see something. Try and test in a few days!

Mctm123 · 27/07/2020 09:08

This was the shadow I thought I saw too but probably going mad...

2WW anyone?
Mctm123 · 27/07/2020 09:02

Thanks for your response @pineapplejuice20 AF is due Friday. I am not one for spotting in between ever so I wonder if it’s not pregnancy what could it be?

To be honest I’ll prob just test every day on ICs anyway haha but fingers crossed. I mentioned on my previous comments it would be a miracle an nearly 5 years in the making 🙏🙏🙏
