May 2021 TTC Bus :-) Thread 2

@AlmostLondoner keep me posted! I’ll test again —everyday— sunday to see if there’s line progression!
@amyannx thanks for sharing, that’s making me feel hopeful for the next few days! ☺️ X

@RockyisMYRhino Wow, that's a great line! Congratulations 🥳 xx

@sylvie1001I can see a vvv faint line.. my FRER was like this a couple of weeks ago too when I got my BFP. Test again tomorrow with FMU and hopefully it will be darker xx

@K8Tee I fell pregnant in summer 2018 - WORLD CUP! I didn't know I was pregnant until around 6/7 weeks and I was out most weekend with partner and friends and I just continued as normal and drank. Obviously I stopped as soon as I find out. I told the midwife I'd had a few heavy weekends and I felt very guilty about it and she told me not to worry, it won't have done any damage and lots of people do it because they don't actually know they're pregnant. I now have a happy and healthy 2 year old son. I'm pregnant again but haven't been drinking at all just due to mum life and lockdown so not being able to go out.. I'm also not a drinker at home. If I was due to go out with friends while TTC, I would still carry on as normal. Maybe not go too wild but I'd still have a few drinks. It's totally up to you and whatever you feel comfortable with! Xx

@purpleskyssssss No problem 🙂 yes I'm just as bad for googling things, still do but I am trying to stay away from it more so now.
Thank you! This will (hopefully) be my second baby but im just a little anxious as it's so early. I didn't find out with my little boy until I was around 6/7 weeks!

Good luck to you on your journey 🤞🏻❤️

@RockyisMYRhino @sylvie1001 congratulations!! xx

Hi everyone, and congratulations to those who've had lovely BFPs this month - great news!

I'm in cycle 2 ttc now, this month we're doing what the doctor ordered and having sex every 2 days throughout my cycle, not tracking ovulation, taking all the vitamins I can muster and hoping for the best. As I'm over 40, if this month doesn't work out then I'm asking my GP for fertility tests to see if there's anything I can reasonably do to up my chances.

Currently on CD10 and trying not to think about it too much! Good luck to everyone :)

@RockyisMYRhino yes that's a very good line! My line didn't look like that until around 14dpo but I did test from 9dpo when I got my first bfp but it was sooo faint! Xx

@amyannx I have no idea how many dpo I am but based on last period I'm about 4 weeks now. This test definitely had a stronger line than when I had a CP though which has got to be a good sign right? It wasn't FMU either which also points the right way I think

@sylvie1001 I would say it's a bfp then hun, congratulations I had the same cramping for a few days like af was coming, this was my test it was very faint at 9dpo the next day I tested and it was a little darker x

@RockyisMYRhino congrats!!

@sylvie1001 I am having the same from morning. Will wait until Monday and then do the digital CB 🤞🤞 fingers crossed for you ☺️

@RockyisMYRhino congrats that’s a beautiful solid line! I also had a cp recently so I totally get your apprehension! 💕
@amyannx yes it came up right away, I had been cramping for the last 2 days, hoping I’ve only just implanted and it’ll get stronger 🤞🏻Xx

@RockyisMYRhino wow! How many dpo are you? That's a very strong line, congratulations xx

@sylvie1001 did it come up within three minutes? If so I would say it's a bfp, mine was exactly like this at 9dpo and I'm now nearly 6 weeks pregnant x

Went and got a FRER today after dropping DS off at nursery and I think I can safely say it's a BFP!!! Feeling a bit nervous now as had a CP two months ago so not counting my chickens just yet!

@sylvie1001 veeeeeery faint! Very hard to tell if it's an evap line or not. But 9dpo is still very early. Not even 50% will test positive that early. Give it some time! Fingers crossed for you xx

Okay so I gave in this morning and used a frer I’m 9/10dpo. I can see a vvvfl but unsure if it’s an evap line. Thoughts? 😕

Yes @Ttcbn2 and it’s a bfn too. But we’re still in! I had lots of cramping last night and some this morning. I keep thinking af is coming and then it doesn’t! I also had a dip in my temperature and I think that indicates af is on its way! xx

Tested again this morning and bfn! :(
@Twochews78 have you tested x

My morning tests were very faint, worse than yesterday but then I remembered with my first pregnancy I had worst tests in the morning 🤦‍♀️ I don't know why 🤷 will try again later

@Willow1982 I meant to say also that I’m so sorry about mc 💕

@Willow1982 haha I will try but it’s sooo hard to resist isn’t it! I just try to get through that first morning wee then I tell myself I can’t test until tomorrow at the earliest. Although I did test in the evening with my first and it was clear as day 🙈

@timeisnotaline - yes agree! Definitely stop if I get bfp but I do drink til it’s pink, can’t put my life on hold x

I’m with bundaberg on drinking but lightly. It’s too hard to not drink for two weeks out of each month, would make ttc that much more miserable!! But once I have a positive that’s it, I don’t wait until placenta etc.

@Sunshine8888 sorry that will teach me to read the thread backwards I have just caught up on your story!! Fingers crossed for us both and please when I get to 7/8 dpo tell me it’s not worth testing! I’m a nightmare, last month I started testing so early!!🤦🏻‍♀️

Hey @Sunshine8888 so I’m 38 TTC baby #1, decided to try about January, fell pregnant 1st cycle, sadly MC at about 6wks mid March, this is my 2nd cycle back trying and testing with OPKs! So far me and DH are not the best at hitting the peaks!! But I’m learning so much in the process!! How about you?xx
