2DPO - Anyone with me....!

Morning!
Hope everyone is ok! Echo that- how are our testers? I’m 7dpo today (I think), one week down 🤣🤣 keeping myself busy at work!!
@AlisonWhite 🤞🏻 It’s implantation bleeding!!!

@HerringGull normally I’m with you re. Shopping but there is something I just LOVE about Christmas shopping- and I’m totally gutted this year I can’t go do some mooching around the shops, stop for a killed wine/cider, look at all the pretty lights, eat roasted nuts. Covid can just do one!!!! 🤞🏻 We all have new little babies for next Christmas eh!!!

Good morning from not so sunny Brighton (can’t get much further from the highlands). As @HerringGull said, anymore testers today? @coffeewithmilk how you doing, when you next going to test

@GreenApplesYo yeah totally! I remember the excitement of going to Inverness as a child, but now I just can't be bothered...! Shopping is not my fave, and much nicer to do it from the sofa with a nice mug of tea :)

@AlisonWhite a small amount of bleeding at 9 dpo could be implantation bleeding, or you could be having one of those crazy cycles I guess. It's so hard to just wait though is it not?!

My temps are very confusing this month. FF keeps shifting my O day back and forward between two days. It got overexcited when I added EWCM at 5 or 6 dpo! Surely I can't be the only one who has intermittent EWCM throughout LP? My temp jump is pretty obvious but FF seems to be prioritising EWCM over temps... hmm! Ach well, just got to wait a week or so and maybe the pattern will make more sense

Hope everyone's okay. How are the ones who are testing just now (sorry I've lost track who)?

Hey ladies, busy weekend so I missed the chat :(
Will catch up later but wanted your thoughts/advice.
So I am 9dpo( or so I thought) , dtd on ov day etc... this morning I have slight bleeding and loose poop. Can I be on my period that soon after ov or did I get my obv completely wrong? If I look on my LH chart 14 days ago it was def not high! So confused x

@EllyNC291 thanks elly! It’s taking everything in me not to do a little test in the morning!

@Aila1994 the spotting could be implantation since it sounds so light! When are you thinking of testing?

@EllyNC I’ll definitely keep everyone updated! Thinking I’ll try hold off til Thursday morning, but might end up testing Wednesday evening after work if I can’t hold out!!

@Aila1994 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Keep us updated!! Test in a few days?? 😁

@Emz1995 that’s exactly how I have been feeling the last 3 days. Left abdominal twinges and cramping, then the spotting today has really thrown me. Still no AF! Fingers crossed for both of us!! 🤞

@Emz1995 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻It’s a little sticky bean and not AF!

@Cc7750 I know exactly what you mean!!! Rooting for all of you and love hearing about your bfp’s!!! Fingers crossed for some more over the next few weeks!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
I use flo too- and this month used opk’s but stopped a few days after getting a peak. Gonna start temping too once my new thermometer turns up 😂😂😂

@Aila1994 sounds promising! Fingers crossed for you!

I’m 8DPO today and noticed a twinge/dull ache on the left side of my pelvis, it’s been on and off all day. Then later on tonight I’ve had some strong abdominal cramps and the feeling like I’m going to have explosive diarrhea but then nothing!! Hope it’s not a sign of AF

I’m trying to keep track.. we had two positives last month (my first month on here) and a potential 2 more in the next few days? This group is doing well!! 👏🏼
It’s mental I don’t know any of you but really want you all to get positives! (That sounds odd but I’m sure you know what I mean).. and as I’m on AF it means I get to celebrate each one with a glass of wine (any excuse 😂)

@Aila1994 yeah I have wondered how accurate it is... this our first month ttc so only really gone off that this month. We've been dtd pretty much every other day since the last day of my period... AF isn't due till 4th dec so quite a wait still🙄😂

Yea fingers crossed! Not due AF til Friday so I’m really hopeful!! @Er1608 I use Flo to track periods but got ovulation sticks for this month because we knew we wanted to started ttc. According to my ovulation sticks Flo was 3 days early. We DTD around both the predicted Flo dates and the peak ovulation test to be safe!

@Aila1994 ooo fingers crossed for you!!

What app does everyone use for ovulation dates? I use Flo and was hoping to see if people have found this accurate ?

@Aila1994 I had very mild cramps, and a mild bleed - very light pinkish on tissue only - not in my knickers - I had positive pregnancy test 3 days before AF ❤️ was convinced it was AF until I tested
Keeping everything crossed for you!

@Aila1994 ooh fingers crossed this was implantation for you and not AF preparing herself!

Hi Ladies! Quick update for everyone. Today (9dpo) I started getting mild cramps in work. (The kind of cramps you get a few days before AF starts, but nothing unbearable like the day AF arrives).
Got home and went to the toilet (around 4pm), when I wiped I seen the tiniest tiniest bit of bright red blood, like a little tiny bubble. Ate my dinner, then went back to see if my period had started, I had a tiny bit of brown discharge in my underwear, but nothing when I wiped.
It’s now nearly 8pm and the really mild, barely unnoticeable cramps are still here but no further bleeding? I suppose I’ll find out tomorrow if AF makes an appearance! But this never happens to me, I never spot. Fingers crossed this is a good sign, might push testing back til Thursday if no AF! Anyone else getting different symptoms?

@GreenApplesYo ❤️ hope it comes around quick for you! That's half the battle, having someone to ask all the questions!
Yeah I've booked a private scan - I imagine I'll end up doing these regularly so I don't flap 😭 I don't think there's a limit...😂👀 xx

@HerringGull when I worked near Lochinver a colleague and I would sometimes drive to Tesco in Ullapool and do a crazy shop for everyone (junk food, toothpaste etc and alcohol). It felt like such a massive treat just going to a Tesco! 🙂 I sometimes used to hitchhike into Lochinver on my day off too and buy pies for everyone from the pie shop. Hehe those were the days.

@Twinkle1989 yeh it's gone so quickly which I'm really pleased about! Looking forward to meeting the midwife and asking loads of questions haha. 3rd Aug is a nice birthday. Have you booked a private scan?

Keeping my fingers crossed for more BFPs this month 🙂xx

@unCliche pray for me to have the same BFP luck!! Currently 4 dpo and over thinking every twinge as a possibly pregnancy 😂

@coffeewithmilk Oooo! Looking good! We're getting so many BFPs. Must be a lucky thread 😁

@GreenApplesYo Good to hear everything is going well with you minus the queasiness!

@GreenApplesYo yay! That's flown! Urghhhh it's horrible isn't it?! I'm hoping I go off all the fat foods 😂 my luck is quite the opposite!
I'm due 3rd August ❤️ I'm still feeling in a flap but I'm hoping as the weeks pass, I'll feel better.
I keep getting funny pinching feelings in my boobs which is strange - I had a boob job years ago so have very little feeling but can feel that, and feel the soreness 🤷🏻‍♀️
Excited for your appointment? It'll start and feel real for sure xx

@cc7750 @unCliche Haha yes, 80 miles ish in Inverness. Doesn't seem strange to me, but I get how it could seem that way. We get Amazon and most major retailers, but lots of companies do refuse to deliver here or charge loads unfortunately.
Holding out on the no AF unCliche - fingers crossed!
Sorry about the sickness @GreenApplesYo. The evenings are the worst! Tired and sick all together :/ Glad everything's going well though x

@Twinkle1989 aw hey 🙂 I'm 7wks tomorrow, have an appointment with the midwife on Weds. I'm feeling alright except I have gone off lots of different foods and I've been feeling queasy, especially in the evenings. Can't say I'm enjoying feeling sick but hopefully it'll clear up when I get to 12ish weeks 🤞🤞have you worked out your due date?
