@Rose785 thank you!! Still v early days so just keeping fingers crossed ❤️🥰 sending lots of love and positive vibes your way xx

Rose785 · 04/10/2022 12:53

@Kpinks44 this is just the best news! so happy for you! Yes my friend who recently became pregnant said the symptoms were the exact same as before you start your period. So I try not to 'symptom' spot now as every month I have been convinced I am with a new symptom😂

Kpinks44 · 04/10/2022 11:39

@Rose785 i was away for work and kept needing the loo but didn’t really think anything of it. Then I got home and was having stomach cramps but they felt exactly the same as I get before my period. I ovulated on the 14th/15th then I tested on the 28th with one of those early FR tests but my period wasn’t due until yesterday. It was a super faint line, but it’s been getting darker, will probably test again on Saturday. Don’t really have any symptoms tbh, occasional cramps, but my boobs feel the same and I don’t feel sick or tired! Just doesn’t really feel real at the moment?! Haven’t fully been able to get excited, I think it will settle in a few weeks!

Rose785 · 04/10/2022 09:20

@Kpinks44 it must be the most amazing feeling to know you are pregnant! I cannot wait to see a positive test! How early did you get your positive? And was it a really clear line from the start? I am due on the 9th so if its not worked this cycle I will look into it for my next cycle! Thanks for the recommendation. I won't be testing early this time as I find it hurts more seeing a negative test than just starting my period.

Kpinks44 · 04/10/2022 07:39

@Rose785 it doesn’t really feel real at the moment, I’m trying to not get too excited, but I that’s really hard!

I mean it’s defo worth a shot for £30! X

Rose785 · 04/10/2022 07:24

@Kpinks44 omg congratulations!!!! You must be thrilled! Would you recommend the cup then?!

Kpinks44 · 03/10/2022 18:34

I got my BFP last week! I used the ferti lily cup and it worked! A couple of my friends had been successful with it so thought I’d also give it a go!

im 37 so wanted a bit of extra help!

Rose785 · 03/10/2022 17:01

@Jacko10 I am on my TWW again now.... so far zero 'symtoms'

Jacko10 · 02/10/2022 21:39

Sorry I completely forgot to reply to this. With number 1 I was lucky on first month (though I did have a miscarriage before him). With both of those I felt a very string stitch like feeling which I knew was implantation. I know I was very lucky with a short ttc that time round, but this time is taking longer and I'm so impatient!! :( x

Irishgal1987 · 07/09/2022 16:19

@Rose785 thank-you so much lovely. Really glad that you are feeling that way 🤗 you will get your BFP too! Feel like I'm in a daze at work this week, exhausted is not the word but weirdly loving every min of it. xx

Rose785 · 06/09/2022 10:50

@Jacko10 sorry to hear this! How long have you been trying with your 2nd baby? I hope you don't mind me asking how long did it take with your first and you mentioned before you knew you were pregnant that time, and I just wondered what made you know? I felt a bit down today as I just hate the not knowing when something will happen, I need to be more patient!
Thanks @Irishgal1987 I am so happy you got your positive 😊It gives me hope that 6 months TTC can still be the happy result wanted!

Irishgal1987 · 05/09/2022 21:15

@Jacko10 sorry to hear this. June baby pending 🤞🏻💕

Irishgal1987 · 05/09/2022 21:14

Really sorry to hear AF arrived @Rose785 but so glad you are feeling positive and ready for the next cycle. Roll on a wee June baba for you 🤞🏻
@Kpinks44 thank-you lovely. Still sinking in. Might still be a bit early for you to test. It is so difficult to wait it out. I tested two days early with a pink dye test. Wait a few days and test again 😊

Jacko10 · 05/09/2022 19:14

That's me out :( Roll on next time!

Rose785 · 05/09/2022 09:22

@Kpinks44 that's still quite early to test, so I think you still could be. If I was to give myself advice on what I have learnt over the last 6 months of ttc, is don't bother symptom spotting as period symptoms for me are exactly the same! Like this morning I felt really nauseous, sore boobs, headache, tired all weekend. Don't bother testing until at least a day late. And I think I am going to stop buying all these various conception pills and just take folic acid ( I have been taking vit D, DHA, Coq10, B6) as this whole thing has cost me a few hundreds already! All this is easier said than done I know, and will do everything to stay strong and listen to my own advice 😂(not sure I can stick to testing late as I too just want to know early!) I would also love to know how everyone gets on in their next TWW, baby dust to all!

Kpinks44 · 05/09/2022 08:22

Hi ladies! Great to hear we have a positive, congratulations @Irishgal1987 !

sorry been very quiet, was trying to just keep busy and not go into overdrive!

decided to test on Saturday (9DPO) and was a negative, but I had kinda convinced myself! Nevermind, I’m due AF on Friday 9th but since I got the negative I’ve literally not had a single symptom so it was definitely my mind just being mental 😂 so I feel fine now and just cracking on. We go on holiday this week so all good, just go to relax and enjoy and on to next month!

we will get there! Sending lots of love xx

NatGee · 05/09/2022 07:30

@Rose785 sorry to hear that but glad you're alright with it and ready for the next cycle

Rose785 · 05/09/2022 07:09

Af arrived this morning. 2days later than expected. I feel fine about it and just relieved to know rather than waiting! Can move onto trying for a June baby! My fertile time will be when we are on holiday so maybe we will have more luck! I am worried as I used the clear blue this last cycle and 2 before all with positive ovulation confirmed but still not the outcome I hoped so makes me think maybe there is an issue. I guess no point worrying about something out of my control. Thanks for all your support on this thread you have been amazing!

Irishgal1987 · 04/09/2022 11:54

@Tes004 I'm really sorry 😔 having such a high to not is so hard for you to get your head around. Take time and look after yourself lovely.

Tes004 · 04/09/2022 10:40

@Irishgal1987 I did like 5 days ago negative. But I’m pretty sure it’s all over, it’s so hard because it’s like your going crazy - last night laying with husband excited planning etc and he works in the justice system so he would have gone to work today on cloud 9 and now I have to try to explain that the test was either wrong or v early loss/chemical- though I think false positive is easier to process - I’ve had 8 mc all early , the cramps I feel seem to be more painful x

Irishgal1987 · 04/09/2022 10:28

@wellhelloitsme dont mind you asking at all 😊 we did yeah but not often if I'm honest. Like two days before static smiley and one time after.
@Tes004 I'm really sorry that you had to go through that. Did you try the pink dye tests?

Tes004 · 04/09/2022 10:00

I have done so many tests - after the + from Tesco I done the same test (top pick) and cheap strip negative- I was so sure I was , boobs have been killing me had tiny amount of very light brown discharge this morning when wiped so I guess at is on way -14dpo today x
