@mrsS21 My insta is a total baby fest at the moment, and it doesn’t help that my iPhone moments keeps throwing up newborn pics of DS1!

GivenchyDahhling · 14/11/2021 09:55

Vivid dreams last night (getting into an argument in a Mexican restaurant… ok then 😂), I absolutely never remember my dreams apart from when I had COVID last October and I had really hellish dreams.

mrsS21 · 14/11/2021 05:57

Ooh I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you @GivenchyDahhling 🤞🏻You’re right with how hard it is when your brain automatically seems to go straight to pregnancy symptoms!😆
I’m hopeful, but know I’ve got at least 4 days until testing would be feasible.
Saw my SIL yesterday, who’s heavily pregnant and just made me ache for it again. Why is everything around pregnancy so extreme? You can’t just be trying, we’ve got to feel desperate for another!

When we’re talking about age, it’s also the worry I’m just turning 34, so worried I’m 4 years on from when we fell on the first time.

*strong, not string!

GivenchyDahhling · 13/11/2021 21:53

Fingers crossed for you @mrsS21, definitely sound like string symptoms. According to my tracker AF is due on the 21st Nov and I’m normally very regular but it’s hard to remember how I “normally” feel when not symptom spotting! Even though it was only a few months ago!

mightbeyesmightbeno · 13/11/2021 21:25

Either eaten wayyyy too much today (highly likely) or am crazy bloated. Symptom spotting is ridiculous 👀👀👀

mrsS21 · 13/11/2021 21:09

Ditto @sunrise321 @GivenchyDahhling we’re ttc #2, we were not not trying for our first, so no idea really how long trying would have taken, but been ttc since July with no joy.
Tried smep this month, so hopefully November is lucky for us.
I’m incredibly nauseous today, my boobs are tender, but trying not to get my hopes up x

GivenchyDahhling · 13/11/2021 14:00

I’m in exactly the same position @sunrise321, 6 DPO today and pink twinge today and yesterday. In a weird situation because when I was TTC DS1, it was a one hit wonder, wasn’t tracking ovulation, literally said to husband let’s try, DTD once and a few weeks later I realised I had missed my period. This time I’m more aware of everything, started trying last month but only DTD once and I think that was PO, this month has been a bit more serious!

@Ballygowenwater

Another BFN this morning and feeling very much like my period is going to start imminently.
☹️
mightbeyesmightbeno · 13/11/2021 13:58

All my crampy / heavy feelings have gone completely now so it's just a waiting game for me until Tuesday probably

@Justkeepswimming20

Hi all..trying to conceive #2 since Aug..i am 35 now..does any1 have success stories for this age group? I am really feeling the pressure..i am 8dpo..no symptons yet..i can't remember with my first as i didn't really track..gd luck everyone xmi g
Same as you age wise, I don't know why it is playing on my mind but I'm convinced that it will be harder this time round!
kizzy97 · 13/11/2021 13:27

I'm going to wait until next Saturday or Sunday to test, af is due on the Saturday (think it helps I don't have the money atm to buy a load of tests 😂) still got sore boobs even though the cramping has mostly gone but comes back occasionally, torn between getting my hopes up and being realistic!

Same! Do you think you’ll test again or wait for your period? The latest my period would be here is weds so trying to hold out but still so far away!

redxlondon · 12/11/2021 22:46

I had a steady smiley 2 days ago, so I think that means I ovulated yesterday, does it? So 1dpo?

LillyWithTwoLs · 12/11/2021 22:22

Congrats @Rachae!

I tested today (10/11dpo) and BFN. Cramping for a few days but that’s gone and I’ve been feeling quite nauseous in the mornings so I was hopeful. But not feeling too broken up about it at least. No idea why I’m so bloody nauseous though.

kizzy97 · 12/11/2021 18:54

Went to get my wisdom tooth removed today, ended up having to go under general anaesthetic, they did a test before hand and bfn, not surprising as only 6dpo and impossible to get a positive then but still stung a little bit

@Rachae - that's a great line! Wishing you all the best! :)

beckybabyx · 12/11/2021 16:55

Thanks @Rachae that definitely makes me feel better and have a little hope!
I totally agree regarding telling close friends and family in the early stages, I'd definitely need their support if the worst were to happen xx

Tinkerbell098 · 12/11/2021 13:22

@Rachae that looks very promising! Keeping everything crossed for you xx

mightbeyesmightbeno · 12/11/2021 13:08

@Rachae that's makes me a bit excited - thanks!

Lovely that you watch the lines develop together! Keeping everything crossed for you xx

Rachae · 12/11/2021 13:01

@mightbeyesmightbeno ahh it's been rough! Hoping this one's the last hurdle. :-) Ohh yes, we both watch the lines develop together lol! I tell a few close friends/ family each time too... helps if the worst happens to have a support network.

Btw I saw your post on 'heavy feeling' below... that's always my first sign ;-) xx

mightbeyesmightbeno · 12/11/2021 12:08

Gosh @Rachae what a journey you've already been on! Have you told your partner?

Rachae · 12/11/2021 12:06

@jackfruit10 @mightbeyesmightbeno thank you!! Most clear I've ever got across 5 pregnancies :-) (No baby yet but here's hoping this one sticks!)

@beckybabyx Thank you! If it helps, mine was bfn at 9dpo xx
