TTC July 2023

@Abs014 defo a faint line and I find they're very reliable tests 🤩

For 10dpo that's a good looking line as far as my experience with tests goes!!! Especially as it was within 5 mins!!! Congratulations ❤

Looks like a super faint line to me too! Definitely test again, I would say wait 2 days but I am so impatient so I would be testing again tomorrow! Congrats!

Thanks ladies, I’m trying not to get too excited just yet! I’m only 10DPO and this picture was within 5 mins x

It really does look like a faint line, how many dpo are you??

Morning ladies! So I’m still not sure what’s going on! I’ve gone a test but I think I need to do another one in 2 days? Is that a super faint line, dye run or indent? X

Thank you! Hope you get your BFP too! X

Hi @Ecgx! So sorry to hear you’ve not had a positive experience. Fingers crossed for you for the next cycle!

Hey ladies, I am Ebonie 29 I have just come on AF today first cycle after early miscarriage last month, this one was a bit later but it’s here now so I can start again this month. So if anyone doesn’t get a BFP I will be in for the ttc middle of this month! I am now trying to conceive baby number 2. My first daughter is 20 months, that time I had the implant out no period but 6 weeks later a positive test so this time is completely different! Sending baby dust hope you all get your BFPs very soon! X

@Abs014 our bodies do like to trick us 😂 aw hopefully you get yours now in the morn! I like the boots early ones, I find them as good as the FRER!

@Maybebaby12345 @Daniki This is the only test I’ve done. I have a boots 5 day early test which I’ll do in the morning, 4 days before AF is due. It did bug me big time but I also didn’t want to do a test incase it’s 100% negative! Usually am irritable and have cramps around this time but this morning my mood lifted and less cramps this afternoon. It really felt like AF was on route but now I’m not sure! Who knows! It all feels like a guessing game 🙈 @Daniki we still have time, I think I read that 85% of pregnant women get their BFP on 12DPO 😊x

@Noirbleu sorry, forgot to say, they're 12, 8, 5 and 2 yes old. And all winter babies so almost 3 years to the day between each of them. We definitely didn't plan it that way at all and wanted much smaller age gaps, but ttc took us a while each time.

@Abs014 could be implantation bleeding, also in the same boat! Tested this morn BFN, I'm 9dpo. But this eve went to the toilet and wiped I had some pinky red bleeding in tissue and tiny like clot?! And nothing since. Have twinges in my left side, sore boobs(but I have them before AF also). No menstrual cramps I usually have at AF but not to say they're not in their way! I'm due af Sunday/Monday.

Have you any other tests? That test result would of irritated the life out of me I'd of had to do another!

@Abs014 it sounds like you could have had implantation bleeding, that test looks positive to me!!! Fingers crossed for you!!!!!!

@Noirbleu its absolute madness in our house 24/7 but I wouldn't have it any other way!!!! My poor husband would love a boy tho 🤣

@Noirbleu Just imagine how they'll be when you tell them you're joining the parent club 😂. I know!! It's insane! Every little twinge you start to question-even when you know it's nothing. Normally I'm like 'oooh 1dpo and cramps does that mean anything?' Then give myself a shake saying 'noooo! Stop' 😂

@NicSC93 Haha it’s awful isn’t it! Most of my friends are done having kids and we have always been happy as we were so think I would blow their minds if I told them!! Omg the symptom spotting is unreal I am questioning every single thing like it’s the first time I’ve ever had a menstrual cycle 😂

@Maybebaby12345 wow! Wishing you lots of luck for no5.

@Noirbleu I feel like we're the same-no one we know seems to be in the same position as us and I don't want to go on about ttc stories and TWW symptom spotting with people who might think I'm crazy 😂 haha!

@Abs014 ooh hopefully that's promising!!

Sorry, just caught up on the thread! Hi to @Wonderingwoes, @NicSC93 and @Noirbleu too! Apologies if I’ve missed anyone! fingers crossed for you!

Hi @GHJ and @Maybebaby12345! Best of luck to both of you! I find breaking down the tww helps a little! The first 6 days are like free passes. I remind myself that nothing really occurs here so any symptoms are unlikely to be related. I find this helps ease symptom spotting! Then day 7 is possible implantation but more likely to be day 9, which is only 2 more days!

TMI warning here! I had some bleeding today so I think I’m out as it was bright red. Only a small amount when wiping and changed to brown then nothing for the rest of the day. I figured I’d test just to confirm but was thrown a curve ball. Pretty sure this is dye run but looking at tests other people have done, it looks different to typical dye runs! Will re test in the morning 😊

I have had cramps and back ache the last couple of days and today I have 0 appetite but that’s it as far as symptoms go!

Hi all! I’d love to join too, 29 and TTC baby number 1 this is month 6 trying. after 10 years on the pill. Have tracked on and off, this is first month I haven’t caught my peak on ovulation strips so really unsure what dpo I am (if I’ve ovulated) but on CD21 of a usual 27 day cycle xx

Fingers crossed for you@Maybebaby12345! omg 4 girls I can’t even begin to imagine the carnage! How old are they?

Really grateful for this thread as only people who know we are ttc are me and DH. No
one to talk to!

Hi guys I'd love to join!!!! I'm 35 and ttc no5!!!! We have 4 girls and if I'm blessed enough to get pregnant again I'm the only person who Hope's it's another girl!!!! I know everyone else (inc my poor husband) will be rooting for a boy. I'm getting ahead of myself tho as conceiving is much easier said than done 😪
