Hi @EllyNC291, how old is your little one? Welcome!

EllyNC291 · 23/10/2020 03:10

Hi ladies!
Can I join please? In the 2WW cycle 1 trying for no 2! Trying to not get hopeful or excited but it’s hard not to get consumed by it!!

Aw @Mommabear20 Haloween SadFlowersCake
Roll on Nov for more BD, testing and hopefully sticky baby dust for us all! 🥰

Well another BFN this morning :( think I'm out this month.
Just want AF to turn up now so can get that over with and get on with cycle 2!

I've ordered ovulation sticks and explained smep to my dh. Also had to have a chat with him about fertile periods, etc.: He's a bit younger than me and doesn't realise how complicated it seems! I've told some people have temperature charts and all sorts and he just looks horrified.

@Mommabear20, fingers crossed

MamaMoonbeam · 21/10/2020 20:01

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 @Mommabear20

It starts for us tonight. Af finished and just DTD. I know it's a bit early but good to get in the swing of things 😁 esp as DP has been very sensible thus far in his life and never jizzed in a lady unprotected... which is reassuring 😅

Annie1290 · 21/10/2020 19:59

Implant removal bleed down to spotting so now to wait for ovulation. I only did this 3 years ago but have no clue about any of it any more 😂 will be weeing on ovulation sticks regularly now haha

Still no sign of AF! So unless the b~~~h decides to make an appearance over night, I'll be re-testing in the morning! 🤞🤞 she stays away and we have a BFP in the morning

How is everyone feeling today?

Ach! AF is such a pain.
Thankfully, she's just stopped with me so excited to get on with things! 😁

Bellaphant · 21/10/2020 07:34

Nope, af started this morning.

Bellaphant · 20/10/2020 21:05

@Mommabear20, same. No period, so cycle day 28, sick two nights ago and last night but not today, tested this am, nothing. Maybe test Thursday??

@Waiting4another, I'm sorry.

Apparently two years ago today was the day I'm 99% sure my little one was conceived!

Qwom · 20/10/2020 10:17

Oh boo @Waiting4another that's sucky 😌

AF is nearly done with me so could potentially conceive this month but wouldn't be able to test until Nov...

Who's still waiting to test? Please be someone who can get a BFP! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Waiting4another aww that sucks! Was hoping for a BFP for you!

Still awaiting AF 🤔 but have managed not to retest as I'm pretty sure it'd just be a BFN again. But here's to hoping for next month!

Please tell me we're gonna get at least on BFP on this thread this month!!! 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Nah, confirmed evap, have gotten two stark whites now! Would have been shocked if it was anything other than an evap, I definitely haven’t had anything even remotely resembling fertile CM since removal day...
How is everyone else going? X

Qwom · 20/10/2020 06:07

It looks like a line to me @Waiting4another ! See how you go with the cheapies and maybe invest in a frer! Grin

Bellaphant · 19/10/2020 13:47

:( it does look a bit...runny

Waiting4another · 19/10/2020 13:23

Thanks @Bellaphant but I don’t trust these tests at all and I am 99% sure I haven’t ovulated. Will do a few more cheapies when I need to pee next, but totally know they will be BFNs, I have had an evap on these tests before!

Waiting4another · 19/10/2020 13:20

Here it is enhanced, worst evap ever 😭

Bellaphant · 19/10/2020 13:15

That's looks pretty positive to me, go buy an expensive one now!!

Waiting4another · 19/10/2020 12:55

I mean it is just cruel to get a line like that to mess with your head!

TTC baby #2
Waiting4another · 19/10/2020 12:49

So like 99% sure that I am NOT pregnant, but are these cheap tests not just torture?!?!

Is pre seed a worthy investment? Just wondering...

Qwom · 19/10/2020 10:47

Also- I lol'd at "rabbit week" 🤣😂🐇🐇

Qwom · 19/10/2020 10:46

@AngeloMysterioso hello!
We're starting to use SMEP as soon as the opportunity arises! Af day 3 so waiting for that to be done!
I'd worry a mooncup would suck it out! 😬 I use a mooncup but have a diaphragm that we used as contraception so will use that to keep things up there instead! 😁

Waiting4another · 19/10/2020 10:10

@AngeloMysterioso enjoy rabbit week!!! 🤣 😂 I haven’t had cause to try SMEP yet, but if/when I get my cycles back it will be SMEP all the way for me! Don’t think I am committed enough to use a cup or to keep my legs up, but I am a bit prone to UTIs if I don’t rinse well and immediately - didn’t seem to impede any baby making last time!
Also wow - no positive until after AF would have messed with your brain I bet!
@Bellaphant if you don’t get AF by Thursday, you’d better test again pronto with those symptoms!
@Merrz I don’t think cramping rules you out at all, I had my regular AF cramps in early pregnancy, I was totally sure my AF was around the corner. Have you tested this month? Also have you been using OPKs or temping? Could you be ovulating early/late?
