Can i join to im ttc#2 1st cycle 3dpo and the urge to test is already there. Ive had pinky discharge and cramps but surely i cant be feeling anything this early on?!

With my first i didnt track anything, i just stopped my pill and 6 months later i was pregnant so this feels such a different experience.
Great to read all your comments to see im in the same boat as others

Thank you @ttcbabya xx
And now begins the longest two weeks ever! Are you going to hold out for af due date to test?

Sorry to hear @Miracle22 xx

@Mariabombia I used to do opks throughout the cycle when i first started ttc back in 2019.
And after peak/ovulation it went back to very low and then picked up at 14 dpo I had an almost positive. So I went on MN all confused bear in mind it was my first time ttc and using opks and I was still learning...
Anywya Mumsnet told me take a pregnancy test! And it was indeed positive 😄
I did MC at 7 weeks though but yeah basically if you test until AF opks will likely pick up the pregnancy...

@frenchie4002 yep, that's exactly what it means. You get the static when your LH surge has been detected so can ovulate 12-36 hours after that xx
I got my static yesterday but pretty sure I've ovulated today

Aw sorry to hear that @Miracle22 hopefully you get a sticky bean soon. Thank you for the well wishes and you too 💕

@Tandabear To be honest I'm not sure if 5DPO or more I had static smiley but we had DTD a few days beforehand too and the cheap tests were showing positive then too 🤞🏼 xxx

Thank you @Tandabear :) first time using these after recovering from a mmc so want to make sure I’m doing everything right!
Thank you @Miracle22 fingers crossed for a sticky bean soon for you x

Sorry to hear that @Miracle22 I hope you're okay ❤️

I've had a weird day of on and off cramps and some shooting pains in my boobs but not sure if I'm just over thinking things! I don't normally get period pains before I'm due on they actually come the day after so I'm confused now X

I am loving reading everyone’s comments and praying for us all to get BFPs this cycle. Mine turned out to be biochemical but frankly we weren’t really trying this cycle it just happened to be the O-day for me, but I am still hoping for an Oct end baby bcuz I will be actively in the game now.

Anyway, sending babydust to everyone here @frenchie4002 @mummytorm @IslandGirl27 @Mariabombia @Tandabear @ttcbabya @HellsBellsK @Sunrise321 @Mikalika @Lizzlekicks @SunnySideUp2020 @Cruz86 @Holly3 @mooonbaby @TradedAtlanta

I hope I didn’t miss out anyone.

@mummytorm @Tandabear
I got an ultrasound and hcg done today. Turns out it was a biochemical pregnancy.
Will be joining the game once I am done with AF. Still hoping for an October due date.

@Mariabombia most probably, yes. Why do you wanna do OPKs throughout your cycle though?

Sorry to hear that @Miracle22 xx
Re the clear blue digitals - can anyone offer some insight? If I had static smiley on the 16th does this mean ovulation could happen up to 36 hours later?

@Mariabombia I only use the CB digitals - I tried to use the cheapies but they never really aligned or maybe I wasn't interpreting it right, so I'm no help.

Well with the malaria tablets it says that you shouldn't take them if you are pregnant or ttc as there's a chance baby could have deformities etc. It's a horrible situation because I want to go on to have a healthy pregnancy but I also want to enjoy my time away. Of course this is wishful thinking as who's to say this is my lucky cycle. I keep feeling like this will never happen, ugh.
I know people have been trying longer so still early days for me but yeah, will try not to overthink it and just enjoy my time away.

I'm 28 xx

@Sunrise321 oh I'm so happy to speak to someone else in the same position! I feel like everyone is either on their first cycle or been TTC for years. How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

@Tandabear That fills me with hope! Do you recall doing anything different on that lucky cycle 6?!

Hi all,

Can I join? I am 8DPO.
No really signs at all my be AF like pains.. But may be I always get them.

This is cycle 2 trying for #3.
I was 5 days late on cycle 1 thought I was 100% pregnant. Went off tea, was very tired etc. Gave in a tested and negative then about 3 minutes later my period arrived.
I am probably the only one who never tests early... I have had a few chemical pregnancies when trying for #1 & 2 so I like to wait until I am a few days late. But last cycle was a bit much never usually wait that long!
Think AF was late because I got my booster in the middle of my cycle.

@Miracle22 so if you carry on testing after ovulation and it doesn't remain dark does that generally mean you're probably not pregnant?

Only asking because I'm thinking of doing opks throughout my cycle so just wondering if I'll know early on whether this months been successful 😬
