TTC February 2024 babies

Starting a thread because I don't see another one yet - I guess it is early for the potential Feb babies!
I'm on CD6 of 2nd cycle post miscarriage/6th month in total, ttc #2, due date would be around 2 February if we're successful this month.
Last month I was way too obsessive about testing, this month I'm really going to try to not let it take over my life - but let's see where I'm at in a few weeks' time. It's a busy month for me with a big work trip just after my fertile window then a family holiday when af is due so at least the tww shouldn't be so much of a drag.
Anyone else early in this cycle who will be trying for a Feb baby?

Yes! Had brownish discharge the day before and day AF was due on my last pregnancy @Nelliepledge

Nelliepledge · 16/06/2023 15:44

Apologies for the TMI but has anyone had q small amount of brown discharge (only on wiping) and still had a positive test? I had a faint line on FRER yesterday, did not test today but Af due today and not arrived. I know im probably out and this is probably just AF arriving but wondering if anyone can give me some hope 😅

Nelliepledge · 16/06/2023 13:26

Congratulations!!!

Un7breakable · 16/06/2023 09:21

@Teatime32 That looks positive! Congratulations

Hi, can I join? I’m 11dpo but have short cycles so af is due today, however after having twinges and sore boobs on the side (?!) last night I tested with fmu today - what do you think? I’ve never had a bfp before and have been trying for quite a while!

i can definitely see that and it has colour too so looks positive to me! Congrats! Keep us updated when you re-test!😃

Teatime32 · 16/06/2023 08:28

I don’t think I believe it! I’ve got a Clearblue but may wait for my partner to get home from work so I’ll have their support if it’s negative.

Hankthehonk · 16/06/2023 08:14

@Teatime32 That's a positive I'd say!! Congratulations 👏 have you got any other brands of tests to confirm?

@Aries89 Yes I just order frer from amazon, I can't seem to find them anywhere in actual shops anymore? Can anyone else?
The boots early response seem almost as good though.
Sorry I can't remember is this your first baby?

@Hankthehonk Thanks again! We’re close, it’s saying 23rd Feb, I’m 13 dpo today. I realised it’s a leap year next year 😅My easy@home strip was slightly darker but I think I may buy some frer, do you get them off Amazon? I can’t concentrate either I’ve been Googling random things 😂

I can actually see something there but you're so early try and give it a few days and test again 🤗 altho I know how hard that it is I'm an obsessive tester 😂

i have told DH i am going to wait until Father's Day to test again but i know i wont be able to wait that long haha! i am an obsessive tester too!😂

Daniki · 15/06/2023 12:02

jadeyjade8 · 14/06/2023 14:45

i'm 7dpo, had some cramping in my stomach on Monday and Tuesday. just done this test and i think i see something but not sure if its an evap. what do you guys think?

@Aries89 congratulations! I got a much stronger line on a frer today (11dpo now), I'm going to do a digital at the weekend. I'm doing frer on odd dpo days and boots on even days for progression 😂
Totally the same about not knowing what to do with myself. I've got loads to do at work but been struggling to concentrate since I got my bfp on Tuesday.
What do you think your est due date will be? I think I'm 26 Feb

Aries89 · 15/06/2023 09:54

Thank you! I did a Clearblue digital this morning and it’s positive. I’ll also be testing everyday! I’ll use the the easy @ home to monitor the progression. It’s a strange feeling isn’t it, don’t quite know what to do with myself now 😂

Thanks for your reply, af due Friday but pretty much sure I'm out but I'll keep you posted! Read your story and I am so so pleased for your BFP, love. How are you feeling?x x

Hankthehonk · 14/06/2023 13:34

@Aries89 Congratulations! It might just be to do with the dilution of urine, and not everyone gets strongest test with fmu even though it's meant to be the case. Easy@home are meant to be as sensitive as FRER and Boots early but I'm not sure if that's true, I certainly get clearer lines with the more expensive tests (sadly!) I've found the Boots early response ones to be just as reliable as FRERs and cheaper/easier to get hold of. Got my stash of tests lined up now to keep testing daily through to the end of the week 😖

Aries89 · 14/06/2023 13:26

Congrats on the BFPs! Hoping to join you, I also tested yesterday at 11dpo and today with FMU but it looks lighter today. Has anyone used easy@home? Are they any less sensitive? Hoping to grab a clear blue on the way home from work today. I have had light cramping in the last week and tiny tiny bit of spotting when I wipe yesterday. I also started using progesterone cream this month so not sure if that has anything to do with the symptoms.

hope you dont mind me joining in here! congrats on your BFP's! I am hoping to get mine in the next few days. i am currently 7DPO and i had some cramping really low down in my tummy and on the lower right side too which started Monday morning and stopped last night. i am hoping that might be implantation as i havent had twinges like that before, although is 5DPO too early to start implanting? I am going for a wee every half an hour just so i can wipe and see if i am spotting haha! nothing yet. honestly this TWW drives you crazy doesnt it!😂I havent really had any other symptoms, maybe some slight nausea and slightly sore nipples. really hope i get a BFP like you 2 in the next few days! i have ordered 4 FRER's so i can take one each morning lol!
