Sorry if I have missed anyone off.

So how are we all getting on? Are we all trying for a Christmas baby or is anyone having a month off?
Cd7 for me xx

@Annannanna defo a clear strong line congrats x

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 06/05/2021 16:22

Kat668, being overweight really isn't as big an issue as you'd think, just keep positive and I'm sure things will happen soon!

Lollipop25 · 05/05/2021 12:27

Omg I think I have my BFP at last!!! I'm around 12dpo but thought I was out as I had the slightest bit of spotting around 10dpo.
I've had 2 chemicals so trying not to get too excited but it's looking quite pink!!!

@TheLovleyChebbyMcGee thank! I'm so happy it happened quickly for you 😊 I'm worried how long it will take me due to my weight, about to go into cycle 2 :)

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 04/05/2021 16:29

@Kat668 We've been very lucky. I've sort of lost count, but technically, 3? I got my mirena out at the start of November and we started TTC straight away then took a break for 3 months from late Dec through to late Feb, then got straight back on it.

I joined this thread as I though I was in for the long haul, given my age and weight.

Kat668 · 04/05/2021 16:06

@TheLovleyChebbyMcGee huge congratulations!! How many cycles did it take you if you don't mind me asking?

Lollipop25 · 04/05/2021 15:30

@TheLovleyChebbyMcGee 👏big congrats
Here's to a happy healthy pregnancy for you 🙌🤗

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 04/05/2021 09:46

I stopped testing over the weekend and relaxed a bit and this mornings test was darker than before, so guess I'm pregnant! Very surprised as I'm fat and nearly 40, I though it would take longer, there is a long way to go though, thanks for the support!

@Mum2Girls19 I always spot slightly by 10dpo if AF coming so going to try and wait it out and see if spotting starts which will be 4th but I usually cave and test 9dpo!

@TheLovleyChebbyMcGee glad it's getting darker, you can start to get a little excited now xx

Thanks Lollipop! I tested again today, not first morning wee, DS was up at 5.30 am and fuck trying to pee into a cup at that time of day! Line is still there, darker than yesterday, so maybe I am after all. Still no symptoms or spotting either.

Mum2Girls19 · 30/04/2021 09:00

@Annannanna no symptoms yet apart from slight ovary pain and a sore throat

What day you testing?
Im waiting until Sat 8th

@Mum2Girls19 I am 6dpo today a o we should be testing around the same time. Have you had any symptoms yet?

Lollipop25 · 30/04/2021 00:42

That's a good line @TheLovleyChebbyMcGee 🤗 totally understand your thinking, I do the same, I don't even discuss my pregnancies before 13 weeks, just wait for something to go wrong, it's terrible sad really how hard it can be to enjoy the early stages . Best of luck 😊

Mum2Girls19 · 29/04/2021 16:43

Hi all

This is our 3rd cycle..
I had my copper coil out at the end of January 2021 and my periods are regular and I am ovulating every month..

Currently I am taking vitamins and tracking my cycle with BBT and OPKS

Currently 5 dpo..hope this is our cycle!!!

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 29/04/2021 13:47

I think I'm just always the pessimist! I work in a hospital and see a lot of worse case scenarios across the board. I'll see what other tests I can get thanks.

When I had my DS I'd convinced myself there would be nothing at the 12 week scan, just in case something was wrong and I was surprised when there was a baby there! My thoughts were better to be pleasantly surprised that devastated if things weren't OK. Now I write that out it sounds a bit twisted and weird! Blush

That looks like a pretty good line to me! Maybe try a FRER or even a clear blue digital might work at 16dpo x

OP posts:
TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 29/04/2021 11:21

Here's this morning test, 16 DPO, the darker line (C) is the control, the lighter line (T) is the test. Its about the same as yesterday. I used the same tests, industrial tests, when I had my DS and it was as dark as the control 14DPO.

I took this photo after the time and it has darkened to what it was in the 3 min. No spotting, cramps or anything else. Guess I'll just wait a week and see what happens. I hate being in this limbo stage!!

Nope, no spotting at all, I was feeling sick all day yesterday so I did have hopes, nothing today though. Fingers crossed though, thank you for replying!

When I have had chemical pregnancies I spotted for 4 days, have you had any spotting?
Fingers crossed it's nice & dark tomorrow. Keep us updated! Xx

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 28/04/2021 16:08

I still don't know!! Tested this morning, period 1 day late, there's was a very faint line, but super faint. I thought by that stage it should be quite dark. Didn't take a picture, will retest tomorrow and fingers crossed its darker.

I thought if it was a chemical pregnancy I'd have got my period by now. Dont get me wrong, I'm really excited and surprised, but it was so faint I don't want to get my hopes up!
