Congratulations @Fingerscrossed2023

How many DPO are you @MrsHousePlant?
I am CD10 & in my fertile window, I'm hoping I ovulate soon because BD & this heat is awful 😂

MrsHousePlant · 07/09/2023 20:20

@Fingerscrossed2023 congratulations! That’s a great positive!

I’m still slowly getting through the TWW 😂 how’s everyone else doing?

Tigger1116 · 07/09/2023 20:20

I’m 8 or 9 dpo and negative test I’m trying not to overthink I really hope I get a bfp what is everyone’s average bfp

Hello 👋 Was looking for a TTC thread to join.
Congratulations to everyone who got positive new recently.
@Noisinmaro Completely normal to have mixed feelings when you have been trying for a long time and other people you know get pregnant. I remember being there.
We just started trying for our second baby. DS is 3 years old.
Took us a year and a bit last time to conceive. It all got very stressful.
Do we told ourselves we aren't putting any pressure on it this time. But we Bded for the first time yesterday, and here I am joining a TTC thread and looking things up.
So we will see if I can try not to stress about it this time.

@Fingerscrossed2023 fab news!

Fingerscrossed2023 · 07/09/2023 20:02

11dpo this morning. Had my BFP. No symptoms whatsoever other than maybe a bit hungrier for a couple of days. Wasn’t expecting a positive at all! Baby dust to everyone!

Found out my older sister is expecting was shocked but am delighted for her....wouldn't wish what I'm going through on anyone I find each month hard until I can try again.. ..also hard cause im ttc so long and she isn't seeing the fella a year..so we all got a surprise...

Noisinmaro · 07/09/2023 19:23

2 says off period due date...have a lower left pain over the last 2 weeks....so I presume its period.....anyways found August thread good so joining this one too....

Skyla01 · 07/09/2023 12:00

@Twinkles18 that sounds hopeful!

I'm feeling a bit nauseous today- hopefully it isn't morning sickness already. Also getting a few cramps. Taking it a day at a time, although it's also hard not too daydream ahead...

muffin1996 · 07/09/2023 11:29

@Riverofhope that sounds promising. Let me know how you get on

Riverofhope · 07/09/2023 10:10

@Lorddenning1 congrats!!! You must be so pleased. Can relate on not being able to fully relax after MC. What symptoms do you have? Is the blood test with an early scan too?x

BuzzieBo · 07/09/2023 10:10

Congrats to the positives on here!

5DPO and time is standing still!

Riverofhope · 07/09/2023 10:08

@muffin1996 thanks for the reassurance. I will do Clear blue tomorrow which will be day before AF would’ve been due so should be accurate.
I did another one of the strip tests this morning and looks darker thankfully! X

Twinkles18 · 07/09/2023 09:57

Thanks @Skyla01 thats good to know! I had the teeniest bit of spotting yesterday after having some sharp pains the few days before, I wouldn’t have noticed if I wasn’t looking but hoping this might be implantation 🙏
how have you been feeling?🥰

Lorddenning1 · 07/09/2023 09:26

@HashB yeah no problem, happy to help.

etaketak1991 · 07/09/2023 08:20

@GHJ Hmm, I'd keep testing then! Maybe you're ovulating late this month x

Reya1603 · 07/09/2023 07:56

Hello all. Also new here and not up to date with the abbreviations. This is only our second month trying. I use the Flo app and tried around the time it suggested ovulation would be and no success. This month we used opks (Clearblue advanced) and my ovulation was 8 days after suggested in the app(cd24) (proberly was the first month too.) my period is usually quite on time with the Flo app. Now I'm concerned ovelulation is too close to my period (cycle around 33 days). Only 1DPO at the minute.

GHJ · 07/09/2023 07:48

@etaketak1991 unfortunately no temperature rise this morning so still not sure what's happening!

HashB · 07/09/2023 07:36

@Lorddenning1 congratulations! How exciting!
I also had a MMC, do you mind if I message you with a few questions please?

MixedCouple · 07/09/2023 07:00

Morning all. Swealtering night here. Heatwave!!!
I am 8DPO I guess.
Just having a little nausea (I heard Pregnecare can do that) my first cycle taking them..... Not sure if I should have. I also read ablot of women saying that it lengthens their cycle.
Regretting it now I should have just SMEP and then my normal Vit D, Folic and Omega supplement.

Feeling lower abdo cramps similar to AF ughhhh. Have a feeling I am out this month.

MixedCouple · 07/09/2023 06:58

How exciting @Lorddenning1
Healthy and happy 9 months. Fingers crossed for a sticky little bean.

Tigger1116 · 06/09/2023 23:11

I found the first time tracking I ovulated a few days earlier than I did in august so just keep an eye on your pattern currently on the tww now good luck

Lorddenning1 · 06/09/2023 22:58

I'm happy with my progress so far, I'm terrified something will happen after my MMC in April, but fingers crossed I'm feeling quite positive about this one due to my symptoms already. Got my blood booked for the 19th sept and scan the day after and my first booking In appointment on the 4th October, wish me luck ladies

WishingUponARainbow · 06/09/2023 22:55

@Tigger1116 my cycle is generally around 34-37 days long but I normally get a peak around CD19. Got another flashing smiley tonight - 6 days of the little flashing bugger has never happened to me before!! Your experience gives me hope I'll still get a peak!

I had been taking just folic acid on its own but thought I'd 'upgrade' to Pregnacare conception to see if that improved anything - after reading up on it, a lot of other women seem to have the same experience in that it lengthens their cycle!! Back to just regular old folic acid for me I think!

Tigger1116 · 06/09/2023 22:49

I had flashing faces for 11 days then got peak static smile so keep going but I do have a 40+ cycle good luck
