Don’t know what I’m doing with the emojis this time!

Who else is on for Jan? When would you be due?

I’m on cycle day 1 boooooo. Due to ovulate 2nd May. I think is due date 24th January.

So I’ll be testing around 15th May

Hello @Bubblesandballoons I'm still not feeling "myself" felt a little nausea this morning and achy boobs, but don't want to get my hopes up on that. Really trying to hold out til this weekend to test as I don't know when my period is due with it being my first month..

Next Monday will be 4 weeks off the pill, still no withdrawal bleed yet and I used to get them frequently when on the pill! 👀

How are you?? Xx

Bubblesandballoons · 04/05/2022 14:30

Hey how’s everyone doing? Have a great holiday @MrsGrealish and @Charl881.
@BiscuitLover3678 have you ovulated yet? I’m about 2dpo I reckon.
How are you getting on @HR2022 ?

BiscuitLover3678 · 04/05/2022 14:03

Enjoy your holidays!

@MrsGrealish oh yeah forgot you’d be away when AF is due. You definitely don’t want to be obsessing over lines while you’re away. Hopefully they will be lucky holidays for us both!

MrsGrealish · 03/05/2022 13:20

@Charl881 I'm just going wait it out unless I feel very strong symptoms next week (can't see that happening)
Maybe pack an FRER for when period is due. I've packed literally everything else might as well shove a pregnancy test in the suitcase 😂

Charl881 · 03/05/2022 12:56

@MrsGrealish @BiscuitLover3678 sorry to hear you’re both fed up.

When will you test @MrsGrealish or are you waiting until AF is due?

@BiscuitLover3678 I know what you mean, I’ve thrown myself into making lots of fun plans for the year ahead and even thinking about changing jobs/ looking for promotion. Think I need to focus on anything but TTC. I’m soon that will change during the TWW though.

I’m CD7, reckon I’ll ovulate anywhere between CD 14 and CD 17 if last few cycles are anything to go by so still a while to wait!

MrsGrealish · 02/05/2022 21:36

Ah girls. You ever just know it's not your month? 5dpo and no symptoms. Zilch. And I know I didn't DTD enough. Just a little fed up now. How's everyone else doing? Where are you in your cycles? Xx

I’m sorry. I’m feeling similar tbh. Trying to look at doing other things in my life atm so not so obsessed with this anymore.

lets see how that works 😂

BiscuitLover3678 · 03/05/2022 07:32

Literally been able to do it twice this week and can’t do it again as DH away. Wish me luck! Not even sure when I ovulate now. Could be today. Wish me luck people! Sort of given up tbh.

HR2022 · 02/05/2022 21:58

Nor do I... madness 🫣

Thank you! I just don't feel myself but also trying to be conscious that it could just be my body adjusting to coming off the mini pill so trying not to get my hopes up! 👀

MrsGrealish · 02/05/2022 21:55

@HR2022 imagine being one of those women who have no idea they're pregnant until they give birth...I don't believe they exist😂
Good luck for testing xx wee twinges are a good sign ❤️

HR2022 · 02/05/2022 21:44

HR2022 · 02/05/2022 21:41

@MrsGrealish hello! You are still so early on! Don't threat just yet or loose hope, you still have time! I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure symptoms don't usually start until implantation anyway which I assume won't have happened yet! Keeping my fx for you 🤞🏼

I am first month TTC but also first month off the mini pill so not sure what stage I'm at the moment. I've been sneezing loads today, runny nose on and off, really tender breasts and twinges. Think technically I'd be three months pregnant (haven't had a withdrawal bleed yet) if we were successful so going to test next weekend x

That's meant to say 3 weeks not 3 months pregnant.. think I'd know by now if that was the case 🤣

Bubblesandballoons · 02/05/2022 20:03

@lyra12 congrats!
@BiscuitLover3678 yeah we managed to dtd so hopefully in with a chance. Glad you managed to find some time. Def not the easiest thing to do when you already have a little one is it.
@Charl881 yeah mixed emotions, ready to try again, but still no word about my appointment. Thought I would have heard by now about when it would be rebooked for, will just have to ring gp if I do get a positive and push them for help. We did chat about what we wanted to do going forward, but both decided we didn’t want to put everything on hold waiting for the appointment.

MrsGrealish · 02/05/2022 18:07

@lyra12 ahh congratulations 🥳❤️

BiscuitLover3678 · 02/05/2022 18:06

lyra12 · 02/05/2022 14:37

Silly me can’t help myself and started testing yesterday at 8dpo and I could see it so faint on FRER and it was quite obvious on clearblue but I thought it was an evap as only saw it when checked a while later. Just done this now at 9dpo afternoon! ❤️

congrats!

Hey, I got my BFP on Friday! My due date is being calculated at 5th Jan!

Charl881 · 01/05/2022 21:20

@BiscuitLover3678 yeah I know so many people due in October! It’s crazy.

@Bubblesandballoons bet you have mixed feelings about trying this month, fingers crossed for you

BiscuitLover3678 · 01/05/2022 19:28

Charl881 · 30/04/2022 20:22

@MrsGrealish @BiscuitLover3678 I’ve got a bit excited and packed already! But at least it’s taken my mind off all things TTC for once. Definitely not packing the OPKs either.

Saw another person I know announce a pregnancy on Facebook tonight though and it was a bit of a kick in the stomach.

I know the time will come for all of us, the waiting just sucks doesn’t it!

Ugh I feel for you. Has another friend announce one this weekend. October baby so you know what it’s like when you work out how they could’ve been you.

@QuirkyTurtle good luck on testing on Tuesday.
@lyra12 any other symptoms? Definitely sounds like there a good chance of a bfp
@Charl881 you are very organised! I’m still getting through the washing 😩.
@MrsGrealish fingers crossed af doesn’t arrive when your away.

@BiscuitLover3678 did you manage to squeeze in some dtd time?

Looks like I’m ovulating a day or two earlier than I thought. Loads of ewcm last few days and did an sneaky opk last night and it was positive, so guessing I will ovulate today or tomorrow.

That’s exciting are you able to DTD?
we did today but not yesterday. Haven’t properly checked cm but my apps range from ovulating today up until weds. Pretty sure it’s not today.

@Bubblesandballoons temp going up still, feeling crampy and boobs are twingy. 8dpo today.

Hi everyone, joining you all from the December thread. CD8 today and would be looking at a due date of January 27th if we got lucky this cycle. Nice to see some familiar names on here, wishing you all lots of luck 😊
