Anyone else about to start TTC a November baby?

@Coastaldreamer yay congratulations. That’s a good line. I was tempted this morning, but managed to hold off.

Coastaldreamer · 24/02/2022 12:33

Well I caved today and this was on a one hour hold ... my hope is that it gets darker and all is ok this month

Thanks ladies!
Yes I did a test this morning it came back negative but still no sign of AF. I’ll leave it 2/3 more days and maybe retest If I’ve still not come on. Yeah I am thinking it’s my hormones levelling out again

smiles39 · 24/02/2022 12:02

@Abbylouise1 my period took 32 days to appear after coming off the pill. My cycles are 25 days now.

DM1720 · 24/02/2022 11:20

@Abbylouise1 have you tried a pregnancy test?
I do think it takes a while for cycles to readjust after coming off the pill! So could be that. Lots of people noticing changes in cycle after having the Covid booster/vaccine too!

Hello ladies,
New to the thread and new to ttc. So sorry to hear those who have had negative results.
I’ve only just come off the contraceptive about 3 weeks ago. I’m 2 days late for my period and feeling very tired and headachy, not sure whether this is pre period symptoms or pregnancy. Wondering whether coming off the pill is causing the headaches and delayed period? Anyone had similar experience.
Thank you lovely ladies.

@MrsGrealish sorry to hear about the bleeding 😔. I’ve had two miscarriages and the advice is to wear pads and not use tampons as there is a higher risk of infection/tss. Just in case you weren’t aware x

MrsGrealish · 23/02/2022 18:11

Thanks everyone for your messages ❤️

Just realising I ordered a packet of FRER from Amazon due to be delivered tomorrow so this can be the final negative test this month. I've no idea how much I'm bleeding, shoved a tampax in early morning and slept most of day. Not ideal 🙈

Charl881 · 23/02/2022 17:40

@MrsGrealish so sorry to hear that. Fingers crossed for next month and hope you don’t feel too ill with covid

@DM1720 it’s impossible to isolate away from kids. My SIL had covid twice while pregnant and baby was absolutely fine. Fingers crossed you don’t feel ill with it and your pregnancy progresses well

MrsGrealish · 23/02/2022 16:35

@DM1720 oh no 🙈 I can honestly say I wasn't expecting the blood in the morning. I have a vague memory of waking up in the night looking for my heat mat to put at my back then woke up in a pool of sweat in the morning. I should have done a preg test yesterday maybe seen a fainter line and knew what to expect. You can't protect yourself from your children when they are sick. It just can't be done. My wee girl was sent home from school yesterday but she seems fine and is testing negative.
I'm praying you'll be fine 🙏 just rest as much as possible xx

Bundaberg84 · 23/02/2022 16:29

I'm so sorry @MrsGrealish - I hope you recover quickly!

Nik84 · 23/02/2022 16:20

So sorry to hear that @MrsGrealish. I miscarried 6 days after I caught Covid and I had the booster at 4.5 weeks. I’m sure it was just too much for my body. Hope you recover quickly xx

DM1720 · 23/02/2022 16:02

@MrsGrealish so sorry to hear you’re out. That came quite suddenly didn’t it, you had a good positive so recently. It’s heartbreaking seeing that line and then getting a period anyway. I’ve been there.
I have also tested positive for Covid. My DD caught it at school. She’s just got a mild cough. I now have it and I’m so scared I’ll miscarry again because of it. I feel stupid for not being more careful around my Dd. There’s nothing I can do now is there?! 😕

MrsGrealish · 23/02/2022 12:58

The only test I took yesterday was the covid one. I just think my body doesn't react well with covid. I had a chemical last month after the booster.
Tbh I think the lines should have been darker earlier on so it may have always turned out this way @Coastaldreamer
At least I can take the good painkillers now. Yay 🥲

BiscuitLover3678 · 23/02/2022 12:57

@MrsGrealish

I'm out😭 I woke up this morning in agony sore sore joints and backache. Managed to crawl to the toilet. Blood and tiny clots on wiping. Gutted. Good luck to everyone else trying for November babies xx
Oh I’m so sorry :( I really hope you’re ok

@MrsGrealish sorry to hear this. Do you think it was a chemical then following your faint lines?

@Bubblesandballoons I've also told myself I'm not testing again till Friday so it's good to have some company!

Bubblesandballoons · 23/02/2022 07:23

Ahh no @MrsGrealish hope you feeling better soon.
@Charl881 sorry it’s still a bfn, it is hard to not test when others get early positives. But there are plenty that don’t get them till later.
@smiles39 sorry af has got you, baby dust for the next cycle.
Welcome to the newbies. Nothing new here just symptom spotting till I test Friday, driving myself nuts thinking I am then thinking I’m not 🤪.

BiscuitLover3678 · 23/02/2022 07:19

@Charl881

BFN for me this morning on a FRER. Pretty sure I’m out now and it’s a case of waiting for AF to show.
Me too. Due tomorrow or Friday so hope it happens soon.

@MrsGrealish aww I hope you feel better soon. Thanks again for the advise Smile

smiles39 · 22/02/2022 21:53

Congrats on the BFPs!

AF came a day early, expected after my recent BFNs. But looking at the calendar I’m still in the game for a late November baby this month.

AF can hurry up and go now so I can get back to it! 🤞🏻

SurfWaves · 22/02/2022 21:16

Ov day today

MrsGrealish · 22/02/2022 21:05

@Sarahmayo I'm ok. Weird sore throat shivery and joint pain to go with the nausea and sore boobs xx
