That's weird! Maybe try another one a bit later and see how it is? Might just be variation in the dye?

@Blossom428 we did it the first day of positive ovulation but Dh didn't mission complete, then we did it on the day of ovulation, so it must of been then.... but thays the only times we did it around that point! I'm sticking around toFollow you girls! I can't wait to see who's next... I have upped my vit D as I said on earlier message, I think maybe that has helped? X

@TTCagainHOPEFUL I know I'm going to really try and come what may....

No symptoms at all really! My boobs have been so so painful, but they always are in tww! I've felt a tiny bit queasy last day but only a little bit.

The first thing that made me think possibly something could of been happening was my opks have been positive for two days!

I'm 14dpo and due on today xx

@AnxiousAnnie86 congratulations I’m so happy for you!
I miscarried with my first and it ruined my next pregnancy tbh because I was so worried all the time. She was fine tho and came out happy and healthy I just regretted the fact that I hadn’t been more relaxed about it all. I know it’s easier said than done but try and relax and enjoy what you have to come.

Did you have any symptoms other than the cramping? I’m still not having a single symptom and I’m 11dpo now. I don’t know whether to take that as a good sign or not especially as every month upto now every twinge or pain I’ve been adamant I was pregnant. How far away from AF are you? Xx

Chlo2701 · 26/10/2020 19:42

@AnxiousAnnie86 awww that's so sweet about your OH. What an amazing birthday present for you! Just the best! Don't worry about the cramping hun, I was convinced I was coming on when I got my BFP the other month, the cramps were just like AF.
No I'm not going to bother to test, just wait for AF. I honestly can't be bothered, my heart & heads just not in it after the loss in September. I'm just going to put it out my mind, relax & start again next year. I'm lucky enough to have 2 kids already, I've just had this overwhelming urge these last 2years to have just one more!🙈 it's mine & OH's birthdays at the end of January, I'll be 36 & he'll be 46, so maybe I might get a BFP then too😉😘xx

@Chlo2701 thank you! It's my birthday on Sunday! What an amazing gift I'm just praying it stays! I'm deffo having some cramping! My husband cried I have seen him cry twice in the 18 years I've known him, during his wedding speech and tonight. He didn't even cry during MC.... maybe he's thinking what have I done!?! A puppy and a baby 😂

We know our bodies by now don't we, my Ava told me I'd ovulated this month and I just knew I hadn't, then I got a peak at day 31!! Maybe you will just ovulate a bit later? Can you keep testing? Or just maybe do it every few days till period comes? X

Chlo2701 · 26/10/2020 19:21

OMG @AnxiousAnnie86 !!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰 i am absolutely over the moon for you!!! Bet you feel in complete shock!!! It's been a long time coming hun! How did your OH react & how did you tell him? This is thread number 3 so third time lucky thread!! Hope there's more BFP's to come on here 🤞🏻
I'm doing ok, thrown myself back into exercise & not dwelling on the whole TTC. Got peak on CB digital on Saturday morning but only DTD Friday night. I got EWCM on Friday, but I've got a funny feeling ive not actually ovulated. What is it they call it? Begins with A. When you don't actually ovulate. Anvoluntary cycle🙈 or something. My RHR just isn't matching up. I'm actually not really arsed for the first time ever, feel like I'm over it & what will be will be x

@AnxiousAnnie86 huge congratulations! Amazing xx

Thanks everyone can't quite believe it, we are going to book a private scan at 8 weeks, see what they say not tell anyone or get too excited before then!

@bwfcchick88 I rarely have sugar! Just never craved it.... crisps on the other hand!!! Have you tried sweeteners. I have that in coffee, and I drink Coke Zero, not Diet Coke, cos that tastes like crack

Oh @AnxiousAnnie86 I’m so so happy for you! Congratulations!!

MamaMoonbeam · 26/10/2020 17:48

Yes @AnxiousAnnie86 !!! Congrats lovely FlowersCakeHalloween Smile

bwfcchick88 · 26/10/2020 17:37

Hi ladies, they just said that the hormone levels were all normal, it was just blood sugar I needed to watch. Said to keep an eye on periods and come back if it happens again. But yeah it is really good news because I can tackle my blood sugar myself. Currently having my first sugarless brew and I don't like it 🤣

AnxiousAnnie, OMG!!! So happy for you, you deserve it!!! Xxx

@TheOrangeMonster don't you made me cry! Thank you so much, that really means so much! How typical when we just bought a puppy!!!

I hate to be the blooming one that says this, but the only thing we did different was in the TWW I haven't done anything, I've had a couple drinks (bad I know) I've not temped or anything at all. Confirmed on a digital!

@AnxiousAnnie86 those are such strong, clear lines, congratulations! I know its hard but try and relax, maybe your cramps are just your bodys way of dealing with the change of hormones! X

TheOrangeMonster · 26/10/2020 16:46

@AnxiousAnnie86 I checked back today because I had a feeling about you and I dunno what's up with my hormones because I just burst into happy tears for you. You really deserve this and I hope it's a sticky one. Please keep us updated with your journey! 🥰

@Blossom428 I just can't stand the thought of it happening again, I have backache too.... I'm praying nothing goes wrong I've literally just gone out to buy a digital!

OP posts:
Blossom428 · 26/10/2020 16:24

Don't think the worst either.... I'm very hopefully this is going to be a sticky bean!!!

Blossom428 · 26/10/2020 16:23

Omg that is a very strong line!!! Arghhh. Congratulations ✨✨✨ now try to relax and enjoy your birthday!!! @AnxiousAnnie86
How weird exactly a year on!!!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 26/10/2020 16:13

So after saying that... I don't know why but I tested, with a 20 min hold.. I can't believe it! I'm totally and utterly freaking out, I have cramps, it can't happen again exactly a year later surely 😩

OP posts:
SRyellow · 26/10/2020 16:12

@AnxiousAnnie86 you’ve done well to not take a test! Have you ever had positive opks at this stage? x

Original poster
AnxiousAnnie86 · 26/10/2020 15:34

@bwfcchick88 thays good news then! It feels good to be able to take control of something too on this blooming rollercoaster!!!!

Nope still no Af haven't tested yet and still getting very positive opks! Getting cramps here and there though so think it's coming would normally start spotting this evening....

It's exciting that you are coming into your FW!! X

OP posts:
Blossom428 · 26/10/2020 15:27

No sign of AF yet then @AnxiousAnnie86 ?

@bwfcchick88 very positive in terms of your blood results, like you say you can alter your diet slightly to help lower blood sugar so that's good! Have they said anything else, like any other tests? Or just got to keep trying?

I'm cycle day 9 today. Should have really started the clear blue digital ovulation today but I was away. May take it this afternoon as it's a new pack so need a base reading and I think I'm coming into FW.
