TTC NOVEMBER 2021

New to the board and think I will be joining the December one. Not out of the running yet as AF is due 1st Dec but thought I would share I found Sainsbury’s own early pregnancy tests (upto 6 days early) that are only £3/4. Thought these were a right steal!

So thrilled for you both, @SantiagoSister and @Essexnewbie.
I got caught up in the excitement, went out and bought a FRER and did it this evening. I got a BFN, disappointing, but our day will come! Hope you are both in a bubble of excitement with your DP with your lovely news!

@Essexnewbie so weird isn’t it 😂 ahh I can’t believe it either, still hasn’t really sunk in for me yet! I’m so pleased it was the both of us too, it’s so lovely. Aw absolutely, I’d love to keep in touch when this thread ends soon! I’ll send you a private message 😊 thank you! He’s just got in and it was all I could do not to blurt it out 😂 I can’t wait to tell him. Feeling ok thank you, had a few little cramps today and TMI I have quite a bit of trapped wind, I had this before when pregnant but surprised to see it this soon! How are you feeling? Any more symptoms yet?

@Lua2020 I used my clearblue fertility monitor to track my ovulation, DTD every other day in my fertile window and used conceive plus on occasions. Hope that helps! Hope to see you joining us with your bfp next week 🤞🏼

@SantiagoSister okay that is very weird about the dream! I love to think of it as a premonition! I just can’t believe it still 🙈 I’m so glad it was both of us and not one or the other, although I would still have been so happy for you ❤️ Would love to know how your journey carries on even when this thread I guess becomes redundant in a few days! Enjoy the show tonight and enjoy getting to tell your other half tomorrow! You must have butterflies in your stomach waiting to tell him. How are you feeling in general/physically??

Fingers crossed for everyone waiting for their BFP this month, and to those for next month ❤️ I’m sending all the positive vibes out into the universe!!

Still trying this month but I'm a day late

@Essexnewbie ahhhh I still can’t believe it! I’m so happy for us, how amazing we both got our bfps together ❤️ Haha that’s brilliant, what a wake up call for him!! How did he take the news? 😍 It’s just so exciting 😊 I haven’t told my other half yet, I think I’m going to retest first thing again tomorrow, hopefully see some line progression and I’ll tell him then, we’re out at show tonight and it’ll be really rushed when we get in so I want to savour the moment tomorrow when I tell him. Plus I know I will cry my eyes out when I do so it won’t be ideal just before the show tonight 😂 definitely keeping my fingers firmly crossed that everything goes as it should for us and all the other ladies who got their bfps too! 🙏🏻🤞🏼

Oh and how strange is this @essexnewbie.. I had another dream last night, I was walking along a path somewhere and I had two pregnancy tests in my hand, a digital which read ‘pregnant’ and a first response with two pink lines on it.. I don’t have any digitals in the house so I wonder if that was a bit of a premonition of our bfps this morning?! So weird isn’t it, I sound like a nutcase but I swear it’s the truth 😂 x

@mrsmw132 okay that makes me feel some hope!! I will defo keep checking. Thank you

@PVxx sorry I didn’t see your message, fingers crossed for you! It definitely sounds promising ❤️

@newjourney21 I use these all the time. I went from .16 to 1.41 in a day!
Keep checking xx

Congratulations to everyone getting their Bfps it's sooooo great to see them!! I am so pleased for you all.

I have a question if anyone has any experience with this......I'm due to ovulate tomorrow but so far no surge in LH, this is my first time using these so is it possible to just suddenly surge tomorrow?!? I'm so impatient and want to start my TWW already lol

@SantiagoSister oh my god!!!! I am so so so happy for you! I could actually cry haha! I wish I could hug you too!!!!!!! Ahhhh! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Have you told your other half? I woke mine up at 7 in the dark to tell him 😂 I was in utter shock, I do not know how you kept it quiet for a week last time! Oh everything crossed for us that everything stays on the right track ❤️❤️

Thank you all so much @mrsmw132 @ajayelbee @ali2021 ❤️ I feel like I am in shock. I am going to take things just one day at time, I will focus on the fact that today, I am pregnant. I am still in shock!

Best of luck for tomorrow Ali2021, I have everything crossed for you for your bfp ✨

Ahhhhhh, @SantiagoSister - that's amazing news!! I am so excited for you! Huge congratulations. I am going to test tomorrow morning at 11dpo. Will be keeping everything crossed myself!

Ahhhh! @SantiagoSister yay! Huge congratulations!! I’ll keep everything crossed that this is your sticky rainbow bean! 🌈✨

@SantiagoSister this is incredible news xx congratulations 🥰

I do also have a little update of my own ladies.. I cannot believe it!! I am in utter shock and it’s taken me hours to calm down and gather my thoughts enough to respond to all your wonderful news, and share my own. I am praying that this is our rainbow baby after losing my first little one very late on in my pregnancy earlier in the year. I am so, so scared of something going wrong again. Please please can you all keep your fingers and toes crossed for me, I can only dare to dream that this could be our little rainbow 🌈 🙏🏻✨

@Essexnewbie oh my goodness!!!! I am literally so happy for you, massive congratulations 🎉 such a magical moment seeing those little words appear.. I am over the moon for you! Hitting the jackpot first time ❤️ I wish I could give you a big hug! You must be floating on cloud 9 right now.. when will you tell your partner?! First time round for me I had to keep it quiet for over a week to save it for his birthday and surprise him.. it was such a killer keeping it quiet! 😂

@Kyoshi big congratulations to you too! So pleased you got your bfp ✨

@mrsmw132 wow!!! That’s amazing! So pleased for you, big congratulations! ✨

@PVxx that’s great news, wishing you lots of luck for some line progression over the next few days 🤞🏼

@ajayelbee thanks so much for the good luck wishes, I really appreciate that x

@mrsmw132 that is fantastic news! Wow, seeing all these BFPs are making me so happy!
Girls, has anyone ever tried using Clearblue OPKs to detect pregnancy? I have a bunch of them left over and tried yesterday evening and this morning out of boredem/interest. There's definite progression in the lines and it was a flashy smiley this morning. I am about 10dpo today! I had my static smiley at CD14 this month, so definitely not ovulating. Trying not to get my hopes up, but could this mean anything?

So after all my fretting, it must have been implantation bleeding! I got a BfP this morning! Shock of my life.

@Essexnewbie omg!!! Congratulations! 🥳 I’m so happy you got your BFP!! And congrats to @Kyoshi and @PVxx too. So exciting!

Good luck to @SantiagoSister, and anyone else testing today… I can’t wait to see even more BFPs!

@Curlywurly3 I haven’t had any symptoms at all so far either. Just a shocking cold that came out of nowhere at 4dpo. Are you still planning on holding off testing until AF is due? I had a dip on my BBT chart and thought I was gonna be out, but it’s come back up again, so maybe! ☺️

Congrats @Kyoshi oops pressed too soon before! ❤️

Thank you @ali2021and @newjourney21! I’m too scared to believe it! Yes I think so, I’m 9DPO today (very small chance it’s 10DPO but think it’s unlikely). I also got a very very faint line on a first response too. Good luck when you test!! I have everything crossed for you ❤️

@Essexnewbie and @Kyoshi, huge huge congratulations!! Essex Newbie, am I right in thinking you're a day behind me, so about 9dpo? This had made me really want to test!!! So excited for you!!
