Another day down everyone! Any updates? I’m itching to test in the morning!

YaWeeFurryBastard · 02/04/2024 10:47

@YaWeeFurryBastard @LW678 so early yet. When is af due?

LW678 · 02/04/2024 08:42

I had some cramping last night (which is normal for me anyway!) convinced myself it’s implantation cramping, hence taking the test 🤣

@LW678 🤣 so hard to resist though!

LW678 · 02/04/2024 08:23

I stupidly just tested at 7DPO, I’m sure you can all imagine the result 🤣

I've fingers and toes crossed for you. I'm 4 days behind you so hopefully we'll have double luck.

I went out to my boys grave today to ask for luck. Its the silliest thing but hopefully they'll send me a sibling

Edited

Thanks lovely. I’m sure your boys will send you all the baby dust ✨.

8dpo here and BFN as expected ☹️

Yes, 5 dpo, one and a half years trying since our misscarraige. Fingers crossed for some Christmas babies for us all ❤️

@Ella31 thank you that’s really helped, I’ll just wait and see what this week brings 💐.

I've got sore boobs too. I had this when I was pregnant before from 5dpo but I do also get soreness with AF. The soreness now isn't my usual AF pattern but as this is my first proper cycle after my MMC my hormones could be a little out of wack so I won't get my hopes up.

I conceived straight after my second loss this time last year. This time around after losing those twins at 29 weeks im on cycle 4 this month trying. There's no science to this , I think your body knows more than our minds do. It will happen xxx😍😍🥰

Ella31 · 01/04/2024 14:54

YaWeeFurryBastard · 01/04/2024 14:45

Probably tomorrow at 8dpo as well, fully expecting a negative unfortunately!

The only thing I can do to reassure you is I had two early mc before my late twins and I remember feeling so despaired after ovulation this month last year because I was like here's another disappointment, and lo and behold the first test I did was a positive early digital and it was twins.

I was in shock. The weird and rubbish thing about all this is....it just happens. Look at other threads, the same poster is having bfn after bfn each cycle, suddenly gets a positive and then they are kindly telling others what they did that cycle, but in reality unless there's a serious issue, we are all dtd around ovulation. I think it's luck, timing and conditions out of our control have to be right.

So what I'm saying is, you'll have your "oh my god," moment and it's "when" not "if"

Ella31 · 01/04/2024 14:24

I'm 4dpo so thinking 8dpo which would be Friday, I know it's so early but I won't last until then otherwise 😅

What about you?

Oh bless you that’s actually pretty reassuring. My husband says it will be fine just look at all the alcoholics that get pregnant 🤣. I think I’m going to lay off it next month though. I have everything crossed for you this month, when are you thinking of testing?

Sore boobs here too but wondering if it’s my mind playing tricks

@YaWeeFurryBastard I went out Easter too. I'll say one thing. I felt so guilty about that yesterday that I looked back on my notes when I conceived my late twins and I had champagne 8 days brfore my positive with them as we were celebrating an event.

Think of all the unplanned pregnancies due to a few drinks that happen.

Morning! I’m 7dpo and no symptoms whatsoever, I’m not feeling hopeful this month to be honest, Ive had a few drinks over Easter weekend which I’ve heard can disrupt implantation.

Welcome everyone! Has anybody got any major symptoms standing out? @Plantpott I feel the same, I have no symptoms but desperate to feel something! @Ella31 I am so sorry for your losses, what you’ve been through no one should have to go through. Wishing you all the luck x

Very sore boobs which I had with my late twins but I could also be completely imagining this too.

@Ella31

Im married to my DW so we've had to go down the route of fertility treatment. We started the process via nhs 3 years ago so it's a bit surreal and lots of emotions to even be at this point.

Aw @Rokaj my DW & I are in the same position! Hi!! 👋🏼
Similarly to you, we’ve had such a long NHS wait to get here. We’ve gone though so many emotions after feeling like we would never get here. Seeing so many friends & family having little ones was getting increasingly harder which made me feel awful because I was also so excited for them.
Fingers crossed for you & DW.
I’m trying to be really positive but don’t want to get my hopes up too much just yet and be really disappointed. Just grateful to finally be on our journey!
