@Missgemini yes I'm going to track ovulation this cycle hopefully then I know if and when I ovulated xx

Purple29 · 07/08/2022 09:55

@Missgemini we started trying for #2 in September. Found out in Dec we were expecting, it was ectopic unfortunately. I would have been 39 weeks tomorrow šŸ˜­ when we were ttc our son it took 2 years, then he was born 10 weeks early.Just feel my body continuously let's me down!!!

Missgemini · 07/08/2022 09:08

@Purple29 so sorry to hear that. How frustrating!
How many cycles are you on now?

Missgemini · 07/08/2022 09:07

@mamazac itā€™s really difficult to see from the picture, but I guess it should start to get darker in the next coming days so should photograph better. Good luck!

Purple29 · 07/08/2022 09:05

BFN for me and started with the cramps so guessing AF is on her way.... I just knew I wouldn't be lucky. Just feel so let down by my body.... starting to feel its never gonna happen!!!

@Derinsea12 welcome :) lets hope this cycle is the one! xx

mamazac · 07/08/2022 06:58

Morning ladies,

12dpo here today and got a faint line on an frer, not getting my hopes up as been stung before with an FRER!

Pictures taken at 5 and 10 mins, took a few minutes to show

@My2boysaremyworld phew! Glad itā€™s finally come to an end. Good luck with the next cycle!
Would you consider testing for ovulation in this coming cycle?

@Derinsea12 welcome! You become so much more aware of your body during TTC. Itā€™s crazy!
Im also 2nd cycle and had some serious lower abdominal pain last cycle. I was absolutely convinced I was pregnant. Obviously BFN in the end!
Having some twinges and other symptoms now too (5dpo) and just telling myself they donā€™t mean anything. Only the test will tell us for sure!

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 20:53

@LuckyMoonstone thank you, suffering bad at the minute with the pain. It's crap being a woman xx

Hi everyone,

This is my 2nd cycle TTC and 1DPO today.

Iā€™m 35 and just recently started thinking/wanting of welcoming a little one to our small family ā˜ŗļø

Last month was my first try and it was a bit crazy. I was getting myself up to speed with everything(TWW, OPK, hormones etc) šŸ˜… Without realising, I started overanalysing, symptom spotting and counting the hours. Weirdly enough I got all the right symptoms and nothing happened.

Luckily I am aware of it now, so I am not going to fall into that this month. I will probably ignore most of the symptoms caused by hormones and just wait until 8-9DPO to test.

Good luck everyone ā˜ŗļø

LuckyMoonstone · 06/08/2022 20:07

@My2boysaremyworld itā€™s rubbish, but I hope you feel ok and can take a deep breath and move on xx we can only go forwards

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 19:35

@EdinburghGirl1 hoping this bleed is the start of it properly xx

EdinburghGirl1 · 06/08/2022 19:33

@My2boysaremyworld this must be so frustrating for you hopefully you're able to move on from it soon

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 19:29

@LuckyMoonstone just been the toilet and got some bleeding starting so hoping it's coming properly now xx

LuckyMoonstone · 06/08/2022 19:19

@My2boysaremyworld during my first MC I had to go to urgent care with the same symptoms- lightheadedness, tight chest, pains in my arm, i was also convinced I had hip/side pain and was panicking about ectopic. Doctor listened to my chest and said straightaway he could tell how anxious I was. The hip/side pain was probably exaggerated by my subconscious worrying about the ectopic

Purple29 · 06/08/2022 19:06

I'm now cd27. AF should have arrived today, but nothing. I had a little watery brown discharge on cd23/24 but only once per day and only when I wiped!!! So I'll be doing a test in the morning. I dont have much hope, cause I've not been so lucky with ttc.

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 18:50

@LuckyMoonstone maybe xx

LuckyMoonstone · 06/08/2022 18:49

@My2boysaremyworld it might be anxiety?

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 18:46

I'm so lightheaded and dizzy. Getting pains in my hips too xx

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 17:29

@LucyLoopyLu it's driving me mad xx

LucyLoopyLu · 06/08/2022 17:23

@My2boysaremyworld of course yes sorry, I forgot you were having a hard time with your teeth.
Maybe you ovulated really late because of your tooth problems? It's a weird one. Hope you're ok and not too stressed

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 16:06

Still nothing!! I hope it's nothing bad going on xx

My2boysaremyworld · 06/08/2022 15:52

@BellaTheDarkOverlord yes think I need some advice xx

Congrats to those who've had BFPS this thread and sorry for those who AF arrived x I hope the BFPs will give the rest of us good luck for our next cycles.

I'm CD4 of my 5th cycle trying now. Been very busy as going on holiday Monday and had a lot going on at work this week so had a lot to catch up on with this thread. Goodluck to all those still trying šŸ˜Š

@My2boysaremyworld Maybe that GP visit would be a good idea. It's strange that your AF is so late with BFNs. I hope you find out what's going on.

I need helpšŸ˜­

So I took an FRER, not much of a hold tbh so was always going to be a waste, but it was weirdly positioned, the test was a different colour at the end of the window and the control line was surprisingly thick, so I took it apart obviously.

There is a pink line but very faint as wide as the control line, but also a big pink smudge in the absorbing part of the test, I've never seen this before? Have the test changed? Does that pink bit mean something?
