@Bubblesandtroubles @Favofit I'm so sorry girlies! ❤️ I'm only 4dpo but already feel it hasn't worked this month. If you ever need a break, just take a month or so off. You need to look after yourselves and Ttc is not an easy journey❤️ I really hope you're both okay🫶🏼
I'm convinced af is already on her way, was feeling crampy yesterday and today and my nipples are so sore I'm just starting to accept that it's probably not going to happen for a while, but it will happen when our bodies decide they're ready❤️
Sending lots of hugs ❤️❤️xx

Thank you so much for your kind words, you've caught me off guard on a very low moment ❤️❤️❤️I really appreciate the support xx

Urgh. Not the best way to end a lovely weeks holiday with an unwelcome surprise arrival from AF. Totally caught me unawares, just as I nipped for a wee before boarding. Genuinely gutted 😢
I didn't feel remotely pregnant but I also did not feel remotely AFy and had convinced myself this was our month.
I'd said to myself that this would be the last month we tried if it didnt work. Very confused right now- don't want to go through any more failed attempts but not sure whether I am actually ready to draw the line 😩 xx

Favofit · 20/08/2023 04:46

14DPO predicted today and tested because today is OH's birthday and deep down was hoping to surprise him but its BFN. Probably won't be able to get back to sleep now . Anyway AF is due on Tuesday, I might start tracking again

Favofit · 18/08/2023 10:47

Thank you for the tag, a bit of catching up to do but first
@Vic231 ❤️❤️❤️ massive congratulations 🥳

I am 12DPO (predicted) haven't tested and feel nothing really. Some cramping yesterday which could be AF.

justanothermummma · 17/08/2023 22:45

@LeopardLover had an interview today so on the right track! 😅🤍

@Vic231 aaaah!!!! That's a very good line, needed this news!!! 😍😍😍

Annapolis35 · 17/08/2023 19:51

thanks so much @LeopardLover and all for your nice messages. I did some yoga this evening and feel more centered and you’re absolutely right about not letting them have power. Sorry to hear of the spotting and please let us know about scans! Rooting for you.

congratulations @Vic231 ! What lovely news and wish you all the best.

Bubblesandtroubles · 17/08/2023 18:58

@LeopardLover thanks for the tag. I'm currently about 9dpo. Don't feel remotely pregnant 🙄 Am on holiday though which is doing a great job of distracting me. Away with others, so my husband is doing a stellar job of following me around and glugging my alcoholic drinks after I've taken the first sip so no one notices I'm not drinking!
@Vic231 that's amazing! Congratulations 🥳😍💕 hope you get a nice dark line to surprise your hubby with!
I hope everyone else is doing well! Xx

No I recon it is an internet issue for sure! We’ll see

@DuchessofSuffolk I'd be happy with falling anytime soon, but with the wedding in July, I feel the end of the year would be best as I'd have a bump, but not bursting and about to give birth, or have a newborn on the day. But I'm happy either way🥰 I just hope it happens eventually. I'm on 1dpo of cycle 13 x

So I posted about 10 mins ago but my post isn’t showing - hmmm

everything still the same. Not pregnant still. Periods either a day early or day late and I feel like it’s knocking everything off. Don’t understand OPKs.

im on holiday in October for two weeks tho so maybe it’s the universe allowing em to have a few cocktails. Perhaps December will be a nice time to fall so then I have a baby for September. I’m currently in my tww so we’ll see

How is everyone?

No one can deleted posts on here, or Atleast I haven't worked out how to do that so maybe it's an internet issue? Sorry to hear your period arrived :/ how are you feeling? Opks are easier once you understand them. They're only positive if the second line is darker or the same colour as the test line. They also work best after midday until about 5pm x x

@CAGH03 I really hope you don't get awful morning sickness 🤣🙈 I'm dying and usually feel nothing. It might be the opposite, it might all stop when you get a BFP 😊

I feel like when I eventually fall pregnant, the sickness is going to be so bad. I always feel sick during ovulation and period to the point I can't eat without almost throwing up🥲x

Thank you for the tag @LeopardLover!

Well this morning I woke up super early bursting for the toilet. So I thought I'd kill some time 😂 and test - eeek!

I'm CD25 and roughly 14DPO and my period would be due tomorrow according to my app! After the chemical in June I'm a little worried the lines aren't that dark?! But I also realise I'm super early...

Oh wow! CONGRATULATIONS 🥳 fingers crossed for you it's a sticky bean❤️

I've somehow managed to avoid telling work! Goodness knows how. I keep bleeding though which is annoying, just had more blood 🫠

Wow, loads of symptoms!🤣 That bubble tummy gave it away for me too but the dodgy bowels is a big one 🙈 I hope the nausea stays away!

Vic231 · 17/08/2023 13:18

@LeopardLover I think I might avoid digital altogether 😂

10 weeks! That's gone so quickly (for us haha) Have you managed to get away with not telling work yet? Or is it too hard?

I've had full boobs, dizzy spells, headachy, a bit of tummy ache and a lot of bowel movements (not sure if that's a symptom but it's been noticeable to me 😂), hand cramp (instead of leg cramp 😂) and bubble tummy! I think that's why I tested this morning as I felt 'different' recently!

LeopardLover · 17/08/2023 12:50

@Vic231 Oh that's good! It's another sensitive one then 😊 I've actually avoided digital until I was 3 weeks pregnant, although they can still cause stress if you don't get the 3+ when you are (many women don't see it and have healthy pregnancies).

Do you have any symptoms?

I'm okay, thanks! 10 weeks now and still being sick a fair bit. Also I've had even more spotting this week but I'm choosing to ignore it for now 😅 I feel like the EPU will get sick of me soon! Work is a struggle 🤮

Vic231 · 17/08/2023 12:41

@LeopardLover oh thank you for saying I had no idea! The ones I used were the rapid result ones as they didn't have any early tests on Amazon at the time.. I've just read the box and it says can detect from the day of your missed period which isn't until tomorrow so that's something!

How are you doing? ♥️

LeopardLover · 17/08/2023 12:30

@Vic231 Well done for keeping it to yourself!! I only managed a few hours 😂

Just remember the digital ones are really pesky and have a 25mlU/ml sensitivity vs FR which is like 6.3mIU I think!? I would hold off on a digital for a little while if you can. So exciting though!! 💜

Vic231 · 17/08/2023 12:02

@LeopardLover thank you for the line reassurance too ♥️ trying to keep calm and rational!

Vic231 · 17/08/2023 12:01

@LeopardLover thank you 😍 no I haven't yet, it was basically the middle of the night when I was going mad POAS 😂 so I then managed to get a little more sleep before we were both dashing out the door to work so it didn't feel like the right time. He's also playing sport tonight so probably won't be back at a reasonable time.

I was contemplating getting a digital via prime and presenting him with that tomorrow but wonder if I could do without spending a tenner and just use a normal one 😂

LeopardLover · 17/08/2023 11:50

@Vic231 Eeeek!! Congratulations to you 😍😍😍 that's a very clear line, especially if you only implanted at 12DPO! With my first I got my strong strong line at 18DPO. Have you told your husband yet? 🥰

Vic231 · 17/08/2023 11:49

Also @CAGH03 I love that this thread says July - that's something I'd usually do 🤣
