@Mummy1502 @cavebaby I got my peak last month at like, 7pm so who knows šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø
Yeah I realise I probably shouldn't have bothered doing it when I did. I've tried to limit fluids since and am still holding on so will do another test in a bit (will be a 4 hour hold on only one cup of tea hahaha) so we shall see... Not holding out much hope though.

Glad you got a strong positive! @cavebaby that's really promising!! My peak registered at 1.15 on the premom app last month which I don't think is particularly strong... Didn't look super dark... I just want to get my peak soon this month wahh aha.

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 17:57

I’ve had cramping and hot flashes today, normally im always cold, makes me worry somethings wrong, I hate the tww x

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 17:56

@cavebaby good luck I also had my strongest positive opk this month, hoping we all get bfp as I’m not classing my faint line as a positive until I get a strong solid line x

OP posts:
cavebaby · 16/03/2023 16:09

@HannahLouD That would have been a very dilute wee after all that liquid so could have affected the reading!

I got my peak reading this morning, the strongest positive line yet so fingers crossed it's a good sign!

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 15:37

@HannahLouD i caught my peak early in the morning around 8ish first time ive ever tested that early before as I used to do 11/12, I found mine were always lighter in the afternoons or evenings when most people say to test afternoons or evening, it wasn’t the same for me x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 14:52

I did only do it on a 2 hour hold though and had 3 cups of tea in that time so maybe that's why? šŸ˜… Clutching at straws here hahaa x

HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 14:45

@Mummy1502 Glad you have been referred - hopefully that will give you some reassurance down the line!

I've just done another IC and unfortunately the line is much lighter... Wish I didn't get my hopes up :( My CB digital is also still just a flashing smiley... gutted. I really thought it was the start of my surge x

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 13:25

@HannahLouD yea I need to chill šŸ˜‚ the doctors referred me coz of the losses so I’m very grateful just hoping this really is going to be a sticky bean, let me know how you get on with testing x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 12:45

@Mummy1502 I'm sorry you're not feeling great today - it's totally understandable though! I know I'll feel exactly the same when I get my bfp again... it's only natural after a cp. But the odds are in your favour and you have a line super early so hopefully that's a good sign!? I'm sure the feeling in your belly is nothing - I know I massively symptom stopped last month when I knew I was pregnant, you're probably just super sensitive to everything your body is doing right now. I'm sure everything is fine! :)
It's also great you have a scan booked in - that'll be really reassuring! Are you getting that because of the mc you had last year as well as the CP? I didn't tell my doctor about my CP last month as I didn't think they would really care seeing as it was my first loss.

As for me, I'll do another test before I leave for the school run, but I don't have ANY ovulation signs at all... which worries me as obviously you need fertile cm for sperm to survive... not sure they'd be very happy up there atm! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜…šŸ™ˆ Last month I had all the signs... cm, sore boobs, pelvic pain... nothing now. So maybe it isn't the start of my surge after all... I need to be patient. I just need to chill out!!! hahaha x

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 12:36

@HannahLouD currently have a pulling sensation just right of the centre of my lower belly x

OP posts:
Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 11:56

@HannahLouD im having a down day today, feel very emotional and scared this will end in a chemical again, the epu have booked a scan for me for 7th April but I’m just so scared I won’t make it that far, feeling sorry for myself can you tell lol x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 11:53

@Mummy1502 I really hope so! Literally no idea how I'm going to survive the tww this time though if I'm this impatient just to ovulate aha.
Also, as I'm sure you've probably also obsessively read (or maybe not, might just be me šŸ˜‚šŸ™ˆ) there's soo many stories about people getting a bfp after a cp... Obviously you also fit in to that statistic (so pleased for you!!) But that makes it even harder because in the back of my head I'll be thinking it's likely to happen again and then if it doesn't I feel like I'll be more disappointed than usual... This ttc malarky is emotionally exhausting! šŸ˜…
How are you feeling?x

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 11:49

@HannahLouD that looks really promising and at least you’ve covered the lead up to it x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 11:38

@Mummy1502 I've just tested again and this is the darkest I've had so far... I'm literally hoping and praying this is the start of my surge... This is is ridiculous I can't believe how excited I am just at the idea of ovulating ahaha.
Although we've dtd for the past 3 nights so if this is the start of my surge I'm going to have to try to get my poor partner to do it for the next couple of days too šŸ™ˆšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
I'll test again this afternoon and hopefully it'll have gotten darker šŸ¤žšŸ¤žšŸ¤žx

Anyone else in tww?
Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 08:16

@HannahLouD i think coz my lines were so faint last month I really can’t get my hopes up until I get a proper line, when I did a weeks indicator last month it said not pregnant so my hcg must have never gone up to 20mlu (if that’s what the weeks indicator is) I was looking at other threads before apparently the pregnacare can throw your cycle out a bit so maybe it could be that for you? It’s hard to chill though isn’t it x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 08:10

@Mummy1502 11dpo was when I caved and did the CB weeks indicator and got my 1-2 weeks and my line was obvious by then... Not that it really means anything!
I really think this month will be an anovulatory cycle... My body is showing no signs of even being close unfortunately. I don't think stressing so much is helping either. Just wanted to start properly trying again... It's so disappointing. I'm 28 so I know I hopefully have time, but I just want to ovulate! Is that too much to ask?! šŸ˜©šŸ˜‚šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļøx

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 07:28

@HannahLouD Thankyou, feel very crampy today which I can’t help feeling that it feels like last month, gonna have a chilled day and try rest as much as possible, hoping these lines get darker but hoping it’s a good sign that I havnt needed to take the test apart today, will just keep testing everyday but if they stay faint I will know it’s another chemical, 9dpo today would like to think by 11dpo I should have a stronger line, keep me updated maybe you will ovulate today? X

HannahLouD · 16/03/2023 07:24

Eeeek yayy! How exciting! Got everything crossed for you!! šŸ¤žšŸ˜
No good news from me I'm afraid :( started to feel very deflated now x

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 06:37

@HannahLouD not even sure this is worth posting but this is inverted without taking the test apart, will get a picture of it in the natural light as it’s still dark outside atm so not great lighting in here, any update on your tests? X

Anyone else in tww?

Mummy1502 · 16/03/2023 06:23

@HannahLouD tested this morning, the line is defo there, faint but there even my husband can see it x

OP posts:
Mummy1502 · 15/03/2023 15:00

@HannahLouD i hope so, I just had my call from the doctor (from last month) they were really good and said as soon as I get pregnant again they will refer me to the epu for a scan, good timing for the call, she said I will hear from the epu by the end of the week x

OP posts:
HannahLouD · 15/03/2023 14:01

I still had lots of CM after ovulation last month so I'd take it as a good sign... x
