Did two tests this morning and both have the clear blue error message, the book with the arrow. Arggg frustration, more tests on the way!

Boredinthehouse12 · 20/10/2020 09:27

@MrsF111 it’s a horrible thing to go through, hope you’re mending well. Full props to you for holding out on testing, I have no will power whatsoever!

I ended up testing yesterday evening after holding my urine for hours (trying to recreate FMU) I saw what I thought was a faint line so retested this morning and got a BFN!!

Roll on next cycle sigh

MrsF111 · 20/10/2020 08:33

Hi @Boredinthehouse12 sorry to hear about the MMC - mine was July, such an awful time Sad, fingers crossed for your test! The earliest clearblue said i could test was tomorrow, period is due on Monday - going to TRY and wait until the weekend

Boredinthehouse12 · 19/10/2020 19:33

Hi all, I’m on cycle 3 TTC baby no1 after MMC in August. AF is due on Saturday but I can’t hold out till then so I’ll probably end up testing tomorrow morning.

Fingers crossed for us all! X

Hi all, can I join? Also TTC my first im 31 and so is my DH. AF arrived yesterday so starting all over again. Been TTC for 6 months but have shorter cycles so just finished my 7th cycle so had a bit of a wobble over the weekend , its crazy how when youre younger you're told how easy it is to get pregnant and how important it is to be super safe etc. I stupidly thought that as soon as I came off the pill a pregnancy would be imminent! How wrong I was lol xx

@Plm28

Good luck to those in the tww 🥰

My app is predicting ovulation now but I feel nothing and getting negative opks. My last cycle was 60 days long so hoping it happens soon and my cycle isn’t as long

I have varying lengths of cycles, up to 56 days has been my longest this year. Even despite covid, my partner has to work away at the minute and so with irregulars and not always being able to guarantee frequent SI, I feel like I have lots of barriers to get through. I would like to join your support please x

@MrsF111Hi!

Thank you! It was a rush, as we were due to get married on 1st July but the gov only made it legal from the 4th so I thought no chance.. Registrar called us (as I had emailed on the day before our wedding asking what we could do!) and he said if we wanted to be their guinea pig wedding 'ahead of a big wedding' we could on 15th July so jumped at the chance. Little did I know it was a guinea pig before Princess Beatrice wedding Shock

It was such a lovely day and have no regrets so definitely if you can have the legal side this year! It's about you two at the end of the day Star

Good luck on your journey, hope this month is your month!

MrsF111 · 19/10/2020 11:00

Hi @2020TTC congrats on the wedding! We were supposed to get married this summer too but pushed it to next June, now decided to have a tiny legal wedding next year (hopefully while pregnant!!) and then a big party in 2022. Fingers crossed for you this month Smile

2020TTC · 19/10/2020 10:44

I'm TTC month 2, trying for first baby (still trying to learn all the acronyms Confused haha)

Me and my husband got married in July and Covid ruined our main plans of a big wedding, we pushed the reception to 2021 but decided to cancel and try for a baby as this is what we had planned for this year had Covid not ruined it!

First month we just tried around the time my App (Flo) said, but this month started OPKs and took my first one today (day 7) and will take each morning and hopefully see a Peak!

Will be nice to follow other peoples journeys too! [Smile]

Plm28 · 19/10/2020 09:42

Good luck! @MrsF111

MrsF111 · 19/10/2020 09:19

Half way through the tww for me! How is it possible for 2 weeks to feel so long Hmm

Plm28 · 16/10/2020 15:43

Oh interesting. Thank you x

Baby Aspirin / 75mg Aspirin www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/4051120-baby-aspirin-75mg-aspirin

This link should take you to my thread I started!

Rachel93x · 16/10/2020 15:37

Hi @MrsF111

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! I'm hoping to hold off testing this month also until AF (if I get lucky!!) is late to save the heart ache again! Fingers crossed for you!

@AKcheer @Plm28

People who have had CP or miscarriages often take baby aspirin (just 75mg dose sold in Tesco for 75p) - it's honestly 50/50, some people chose to talk to the dr, some just research and chose to take it! I made a thread called Baby Asprin / 75mg aspirin on here and had some useless info so based on that I've decided to take some starting from tonight. But I'd do research and check with a dr if you would feel safer etc! Some people had 3/4 CP in a row and then took aspirin the next cycle and got their BFP and healthy baby xx

Plm28 · 16/10/2020 15:29

Ohh what’s the baby aspirin method?

AKcheer · 16/10/2020 15:24

@Plm28 @Rachel93x Great stuff! Get those opks looking super dark hold your wee!! I’m ok thanks I’m 11DPO I thinkish. But I am getting AF symptoms LOL. What’s the baby aspirin method!?

MrsF111 · 16/10/2020 15:05

Hi! Ttc number 1, in the tww of our first cycle following a mmc earlier in the year. Trying to wait patiently until I can test and not get too excited but failing miserably and looking at nursery decor on pintrest Blush

Rachel93x · 16/10/2020 15:04

I'm good thanks @AKcheer - my ovulation sticks are getting darker by the day and currently on CD11. I'm going to try the baby aspirin method this month I think 🙈 how are you doing?

Plm28 · 16/10/2020 14:35

@AKcheer good, opks looking hopeful. How are you?

AKcheer · 16/10/2020 13:59

How’s everyone getting on xx

Rachel93x · 14/10/2020 23:59

@rttcbabyno1 I never realised how common they were either, but I've read you're super fertile after and it's a good sign we can conceive, so thinking of the positives here 🙊

We also started in July after a random delayed/missed period for no reason, but I hadn't done my research on ovulation etc at that point so we missed the window too!

I now use the Easy@Home ovulation sticks along with the Premom app & I love it! Can take photos of your ovulation stick and it keeps them together etc! Last month (and now this month as I'm on CD10) we used conceive plus lube and I'm convinced that's why we got a positive as the reviews on it are amazing so hopefully we get lucky again this month!

It's crazy how much is ladies stress ourselves out with these things when we're so new to the TTC journey! Me & my partner are only 27 but we've just bought our first house at the start of lockdown and decided, what's stopping us now so we decided to start!

It's exciting to see a couple of you so far into the 2 week wait and hopefully see some BFP's soon 🤞🏻🥰

rttcbabyno1 · 14/10/2020 23:43

Nice to meet you all too! I'm still getting used to Mumsnet but it's been great seeing everyone stories and how similar people's stories are, it's comforting to know I'm not on my own xx

@AKcheer yes first month using them for me. I couldn't figure out my exact ovulation day... had 3-4 days of dark lines...

Think I'm around 10DPO now.. x

rttcbabyno1 · 14/10/2020 23:40

@Rachel93x

Hello,

I'm CD10 on month 3 of officially TTC baby #1, after a chemical pregnancy last month. Hope this month is the month for us!

Fingers crossed for you both xx

Also my name is Rachel, that was the funny bit, I forgot to mention that.

I'm not weird honest 😂

Think we are the same person lol...

We started late July and I missed that ovulation window, so I guess this is my 2nd cycle trying. I had a CP last month too. I can't believe how common they are!!
