TTC March 2024 ❤️✨

@Emmano3 Did you dip the second test in the same pee? Depends on when you implanted but if period is due Saturday then you’re around 8-9dpo

Hi ladies! 32 days since surgery for my MMC and it finally looks like I'm about to ovulate! Going to TTC straight away as I really want to be pregnant again. Hoping the next pregnancy is successful as I don't think I could go through what I've been through again.

Hi!

You normally ovulate around 12 days before your AF arrives. If your AF is due on Saturday 16th, you probably ovulated between 1st-4th March. That puts you at maximum 7dpo which is still very early. Test again a few days!! Fingers crossed for you 😃

Hey girls, sorry for jumping on.. Iv been a long time lurker.. not 100% sure how many dpo I am as some cycles are shorter than others.. but according to flo app periods due Saturday.. felt a bit sickly thismorning so decided to pick up two tests in tesco. Did one and this line came up
straight away.. Hubby was like do the other one to make sure and it was a stark negative 😅 coukd it be an indent? Came up within the time frame and had a pink colour!! I’m going out of my mind 🙈🙈

Hey girlie's!! Im 6DPO and love to join the thread! I've got about 10000 symptoms and my logical mind is telling me it's all in my head/I'm getting sick! But the twwmadness mind is convinced it's all pregnancy symptoms!!

How's everyone else doing!

@CatLady1994 welcome! We are on a very similar journey. I have a little boy who is 2 in October and been TTC no.2 for 4 months now. I never got a peak ovulation test so not sure when or if I did ovulate but AF due 22nd March. Planning on testing on 18th. Keep us updated!

@misspeach07 @Bluemilan I don’t think many do wait! We all test early and enter the delulu era together of hoping and squinting!

@Daisychain27 that is so disheartening for you, sorry to hear that. When is AF due? Sending love your way.

Congrats to those getting positives! I’m day 6 of flashing smilies!! I’m doing some cheap ovulation tests and they are 100% negative, not even a faint line. Ovulation has either not happened, or I’ve missed it. Creamy discharge (sorry TMI).

Has anyone had any experience with the CB flashing smilies and never got their peak and got pregnant? I’m already loosing hope for this month and it’s getting me down…xx

I'm really burpy and have a bit of heartburn at 9dpo, plus sore boobs and cramping most of yesterday. Is burping and heartburn a symptom or did I just eat too fast?! I've had heartburn maybe twice ever in my life. I don't want to Google it because I'll drive myself mad...!

Another BFN for me at 10dpo. Lowest progesterone test of this cycle and no notable symptoms. Making peace with this probably not being the cycle though not counting myself out completely till AF.

I've actually found early testing less stressful than waiting. All I could think about last cycle when I waited was potentially being pregnant. I nonstop symptom spotted, frantically googling every little thing. Whereas after each test yesterday and today, been much easier to tell myself: well you're definitely not pregnant today so best to focus on other things!

Congratulations to the BFP's out there, how exciting!!!

And hang on in there everyone else!!

I'm going to try and not test for a few days when AF is due. I don't know if I'm having symptoms or if it's all in my head. Last night I felt a bit sick. I'm trying for DC3 so I remember what early pregnancy feels like, and it felt familiar, tired, fuzzy head, slightly sick. I'm also aware it could be hormones playing tricks on me. I keep telling myself not to carried away, relax and accept that what will be will be.

But it's soooooo hard!!! 😬

If you're concerned I would still call them for advice especially with your history and explain the childcare they might be able to sort something still x

@mumofone1111 unfortunately there’s clots in my blood 😭 last time I thought I was having a chemical and my lines got stronger it was actually ectopic! I want to call mt EPU but I wont be able to go because my parents are on holiday and my partner works full time and kids aren’t allowed in the EPU and i don’t trust anyone with my little girl 😭

Sending lots of love! I've had lots of them so totally understand the feeling 😢
If getting darker could you contact your EPU as they might scan you? There could be a bleed I've forgotten the name not a early loss of the lines are still getting stronger
Sending lots of love ❤️

@mumofone1111 my tests are alot darker and I got a positive digital but I am bleeding a lot 🙃🙃🙃 just another chemical to add to the list!☹️

I always test super early with cheap tests so no advice on holding out just that you're not alone :)

Congratulations :)

How are you feeling today??

@waltzingintomonday Aww yes, my AF isn't due until Saturday, so this wait is awful isn't it? Our cycles do sound similar - the main symptoms I've noticed this past week are tiredness (more than usual) and cramping/bloating! But that could just be a sign AF is coming. It's torture, but I think we probably don't help ourselves either :) fingers crossed it works out for us though!

I tested this morning at 9dpo, and it was a BFN. Kind of thought it would be as AF isn't due for another week. I still feel crampy and have super sore boobs so going to try and hold off testing again until Thursday or Friday.

@misspeach07 sounds like our cycles are pretty similar and I'm also in our first cycle of trying. I've been trying to keep busy to keep my mind off it, but then Saturday night started getting symptoms and now I'm obsessing 🙃 no idea how people do it.

Hi everyone, can I join? Currently 9/10dpo and just tested and got a BFN! First cycle of trying and honestly this 2WW is horrendous! How do people hold out from testing?! This shows me just how impatient a person I am haha :)

9/10 DPO and had a BFN this morning so my test yesterday must have been a false positive, gutted!

Hello could I join please? This is cycle 3 of trying for DC2. (DC1 will be 2 in November) I think i'm 1 DPO as of today!

Hoping to hold off from testing until around 12DPO but we'll see how I go... I think I got my hopes up a bit too much the past 2 cycles and was testing from about 8DPO and obviously got BFNs. I got pregnant pretty much straight away the first time round so was hoping for similar this time.

Congratulations!!!

Well I've officially entered the "POAS and squint at it upside down with the torch shining on it" stage 🙃. I'm fairly sure I can see something where a second line should form, kind of like a shadow but realistically it's an evening urine at 8dpo so I don't know who I'm kidding. How does everyone else resist the urge to test? I'm fine until around now and then doing about 3 ic's a day until AF arrives!

There's one in the November Mumsnet thread.

I've just found out I'm pregnant, baby number 3 (eek!) 15dpo and been getting positives since 12dpo getting stronger every day!

Wondering if anyone is starting a Facebook group for October/November babies?
