Can anyone see a line? Me and my dp can see a super faint line but don't know if it's a real line starting or an indent/evap 🙈

I think I can see a faint line in the first picture. Fingers crossed, are you going to test again in a few days?

LAgeDeRaisin · 31/12/2022 13:00

For anyone symptom spotting - I had severe cramps in by lower abdomen on 8dpo, centrally which I assume was implantation. Then 2.5days later I got the positive.

Good luck everyone and thank you for the good wishes - soooo hoping it sticks

Congratulations @LAgeDeRaisin fingers crossed for a happy healthy pregnancy

@WonderfulSummer im hoping to hold out until Friday. But I know I probably won’t. Been having some light cramps today and yesterday I had reflux after I ate. Reflux was the main symptom with my last pregnancies but it’s still too soon to tell. You been symptom spotting yet?

MexicanDrinkingWorm · 31/12/2022 11:30

Congrats @LAgeDeRaisin , fingers crossed it sticks ☺️

anyone else symptom spotting? I’ve got a weird nausea feeling, but in my boobs?!

I remember feeling like this with my first but can’t remember at what stage and feel like it’s unlikely to be anything this early anyway. Hoping I can test by the end of next week as I’m driving myself mad!

Congratulations @LAgeDeRaisin 🎊

Congrats @LAgeDeRaisin 🥳🥰 everything crossed little one sticks for you ❤️

@LAgeDeRaisin eeeeeek! Congratulations I hope it’s a sticky bean!

have any of you ladies used the fertilily before? I’ve heard both positive and negatives about it. Just ordered one and hoping to give it a try this cycle. CD6 for me, clearblue ovulation suggests to start tracking tomorrow, which I will as I’ve ovulated early on a few months previously, don’t anticipate ovulation to be until 14th however. But I’d rather track early and make sure I don’t miss it.

@LAgeDeRaisin aww how lovely, that they are close in age, fingers and toes crossed for you. This is our first time trying and the wait after AF is sooooo long lol trying to keep myself busy for the next week before ovulation. Ever since we decided January is the month it's consumed my every thought x

LAgeDeRaisin · 31/12/2022 07:51

@Babydustthisyear we have a 1yo and a 2yo and this will be us finished I think! If it sticks!! This is 3rd cycle trying.

Bluemilan · 31/12/2022 07:48

Babydustthisyear · 31/12/2022 07:36

Babydustthisyear · 31/12/2022 07:35

LAgeDeRaisin · 31/12/2022 07:33

Babydust99 · 30/12/2022 21:59

Hi @Jigglemonster I'm on cycle 7 too

Jigglemonster · 30/12/2022 21:26

Hi everyone! AF arrived yesterday so back again. 'Had a feeling' it was it last month (wishful thinking) so a bit deflated but onwards and upwards for Jan.

This is cycle #7 TTC #2 and nothing at all so far. Got an at-home blood test from Forth which I'm going to do in a couple of days to see if it shows up anything. Otherwise I'm going to go back to clearblue ovulation tests this month because I keep missing it using OPKs - though I have an Ovucore so know when I have ovulate after the fact at least.

Good luck to everyone testing soon, I've a long way to go this month!

WonderfulSummer · 30/12/2022 20:59

@GemLou88 I’d like to hold off until next Friday/Saturday but no idea if I’ll have that will power! What about you?

Jennifer89 · 30/12/2022 20:44

Hopefully 2023 brings good news to us all and fingers crossed soon..😊

Jennifer89 · 30/12/2022 20:39

Me and dh managed sex just once before ovulation on boxing day, worked out about 2 1/2 days before I tend to ovulate so hopefully in with a chance..
Seems like everyone is annoucing pregnancies around xmas lolm

Natty83 · 30/12/2022 20:35

Hello! I'm Nat. Been lurking a few days and would love to join you all on this journey. Have a DS (15 months) and currently TTC #2 - 15dpo this morning and a BFN (AF due tomorrow and her cramps are stabbing me as I type) so looking hopefully towards January now.
