I'm 2dpo and would love some company to get through the next couple of weeks!

I'm on cycle 6 ttc #2. I keep going between feeling really hopeful and optimistic to feeling really deflated and like it's not going to happen. Hoping to stay positive though!

@Girlmom2009 I genuinely don’t think you have anything to worry about regarding the line progression, it looks great!

Hopefully (but doubtful) I’ll be able to join the whatsapp group soon 😅. Will start testing from tomorrow where I’ll be 8DPO

Girlmom2009 · 06/05/2024 08:49

We’ve started a whatsapp group now, as this amazing thread is hard to keep up! Group may be easier to swap advice and chat! If yoh want to join then private message me your number ☺️ xx

@Mumma8538 sounds all good for you though! I have no idea when to stop with the testing as you can still test and really not mean anything can’t you! Maybe when I get a 3+ on a digital!

@Daisyrobin123 just so worrying when symptoms go as it happened to me with previous MC. I just want to feel something 😂 I booked my midwife appointment but felt I jinxed it!

it’s hard to keep up I’m thinking a whatapp group and if people want to private message me on here their numbers we can make one. Might help with the reassurance for me, and updates 🤍 the thread is getting long!

Yes definitely!! Sorry I mentioned it before and completely forgot! I'll send you mine 🙂

This mornings line progression… thoughts?!
Im 16dpo maybe 15 if a day out! I don’t know if it will get any darker at this point, need a line stealer. It’s not changed much yesterday but should I be comparing to 2 days ago as hcg doubles every 48 hours?

All my symptoms have gone now too, which you’d expect to increase if hcg doubling. I just don’t think it’s a sticky one 🤍

These look good to me!! I wouldn't worry about the lack of symptoms, I haven't got any either (well I'm full of cold, feel nauseous because of the vitamins and tired) but all of those things I think I would be anyway 😂.
I'm 31, 32 in July!! I still think I'm about 23 in my head though!!

Hello all, sorry I have been a busy bee and just trying to catch up with the messages but there appears to be a lot so I think I’m a bit lost.

welcome to all the newbies who are on your tww, I know it is torture but you aren’t out until AF arrives.

im getting a little bit more excited as have had my BFP and still no bleed from me and I am 2 days late.. my boobs have become more tender, bloating has gone down and don’t have as much nausea so hoping it’s a sticky bean ✨

We are exactly the same, I don't really have many symptoms except nausea but I think that's when I've taken my vitamins! AF was due Friday for me so now 4 days late which seems soooo strange. I've got 3 cheapies left and then I'm going to stop testing and book my first midwife appt. Have you booked yours yet? Glad to see you back!
I'm also struggling to keep up with the messages on here!

@Marie1990x thank you 🥰

@Girlmom2009 got some pulling pains in my left side , slight sickie feeling and tender boobs so I feel fine. I felt euphoric yesterday after like I could have taken on the world 💪🏼 how are you ?
just seen your picture, I think you compare it with 2 days ago so still is getting stronger. I have been thinking this, surly a line can not get any stronger so when do you stop testing !? A lot of people don’t get a dye stealer , they look very reassuring but if you don’t get one I don’t think it means anything

@Mumma8538 that’s great how do you feel this morning 🤍🤍

Mumma8538 · 06/05/2024 05:22

@Lisa3192 I don’t see anything on those pictures from yesterday 😞 but test again today! Also this website doesn’t upload pictures very well so you might well see something but it’s just on here.
I also used to use an app and symptoms for thinking when I ovulated and appears I have a surge about CD13/14 when I got symptoms but don’t actually ovulate until CD19 I only found this out from doing OPK’s.. good luck for testing today !

Marie1990x · 05/05/2024 22:13

@Mumma8538 amazing little update 😊. I wouldn’t be concerned about the no nausea, I didn’t get it until minimum 8 weeks. Congratulations ✨

@Girlmom2009 When my date tests didn’t match what I should be I had a MC at 6 weeks.

Im 38… I conceived my son when I was 35..

Lisa3192 · 05/05/2024 20:28

I am 32, this is going to be my third baby!! Last two was c section!!

Marie1990x · 05/05/2024 20:20

Hoping to see more BFP’s. Dying to test but only 6dpo so trying to home off.

@Lisa3192 i don’t see anything there, but as others have said you’re still early so keep testing

@Girlmom2009 those lines look great. I’d assume the diluted test would make it slightly fainter?

I’m 34. Had DD at 31

Girlmom2009 · 05/05/2024 20:06

Just out of curiosity how old are you all girlies.. ?

I keep getting told I’d still be able to have kids in my 40 as my OH is 7 years younger! I’m 33, if rainbow baby sticks I’ll be 34. Had my first at 18 🤍

TigerMummax3 · 05/05/2024 20:02

Oh I don’t track either but just went with the feeling which is what I did with my 3 before. I do remember with my daughter that I tested negative on day 13Dpo and then strong positive the next morning and then negative and negative at the doctors as well so I went home and got a digital and it said 3-4 weeks.

with the boys, I’m sure I was like 11 or 12 Dpo but this was nearly 10 years ago when I had a clockwork cycle and 28 days and ovulated bang in the middle etc.

so now because I’ve been having a shorter cycle but only for a couple of months I think or maybe it’s more.. but still.. I definitely thought I’d be less than 6 days before period due but maybe just not long enough since ovulation oooorrrrrr didn’t DTD close enough 🤷🏻‍♀️

meh… I guess we will know in a couple of days or at least by the 12th won’t we 😊😊😊

Lisa3192 · 05/05/2024 19:56

TigerMummax3 · 05/05/2024 19:43

I did but nothing yet! I think if I remember right we would be due af same day but I’m not entirely sure if my dates are right.

any symptoms today for you? Xx

My af is due on the 12th of May. I am 7dpo today. But having said that I don’t really track my ovulation with ovulation tests. I go by symptoms and an App.

@Girlmom2009 i know I’m so early!!! So not loosing hopes! I think the urine gets diluted as the day goes by!! test again tomorrow morning with fmu!!! Hoping all goes well for you!

Girlmom2009 · 05/05/2024 19:52

@TigerMummax3 Welcome 🤍 test again it may be to early! @Lisa3192 same for you! I don’t see anything but your so early yet!

@ChyLL i know!! Was that a viable pregnancy? Thank you 🤍

Girlmom2009 · 05/05/2024 19:45

@Daisyrobin123 still feeling strange like I’m not pregnant at all! So the one with writing is the FMU, and the other is around 1pm today?

Yours look great, how many DPO are you now 🤍

I tested again 🤦‍♀️ I feel like I see something!! I don’t know!!

ChyLL · 05/05/2024 19:43

@Girlmom2009 When I got my positive last time I became obsessive with tests and then when the date tests didn’t do what they should have as the weeks went on I got so anxious. I ended up having bloods to know one way or another.

Im not sure what I’ll do. Maybe just do the cheapie ones like you have if its positive… although i really think im out.. having period cramps today, AF due Tuesday

@Lisa3192 i don’t see anything at the moment but definitely try again in a day or two ♥️

Lisa3192 · 05/05/2024 19:38

TigerMummax3 · 05/05/2024 14:44

Hey ladies

Been following this thread a week or so and well…maybe obsessing 😂

right so here goes…

I have 3 kids 9,10,11

split from their Dad 5 years ago and am I a reasonably new relationship. he has 10 and 12 year old boys.

We have joked about a baby lots of times and aren’t being careful but you know what it’s like.. when you think there maybe a chance… you obsess and symptom spot like a crazy person 🥴

so I have had two cycles which have only been 24 days long.. not sure before that.

last period was April 14th

we DTD loads which I thought was safe before ovulation as he works away and I expected to ovulate on the weekend after he left on the Tuesday.

however, I had strong cramps on the weds.. not sure about CM but did defo have some EWCM on the Friday.

Im on day 21 of cycle and expecting AF on Tuesday.

I just don’t know whether to test as it becomes addictive and even though I have 3, the thought of a BFP and one last bubba excites me.

my symptoms have been

niggling cramps for about 5 days
giant boobs (maybe sore)
veins and tingly nipples
gagging at thought of coffee but can drink it
cervix shooting pain occasionally
and a silly one… he FaceTimed me on lunch break from work and said bye a bit short and abruptly which is a bit of a standing joke because it’s quite early for the “love you, bye” habitual “bye” for some reason. Maybe because he works two weeks on and two off.

anyway.. I basically don’t know if I’m 9 or 10 DPO. Clear blue calculator says test Tuesday and some say tomorrow.

I just bought a few different ones… do I do it or do I wait until tomorrow or Tuesday?

help meeeeee 😂

also everyone on here seems so lovely and I am so happy for everyone who has their BFPs. Also wishing luck to those still waiting ❤️❤️

@Girlmom2009 Hmm that's strange. I'm not really sure on the fmu/line strength thing.
These are my tests from the last few days and they've been taken at random times during the day (not fmu). I haven't had many symptoms to be honest, but then I don't think I did straight away with my DS either and then the sickness hit all of a sudden. I feel nauseous on and off but I've now put that down to the vitamins I'm taking. Also, the iron in them causes my IBS to wreck havoc so that's fun!!!
Have you got a pic of your most recent cheapie?

Hi welcome!! The girls in this chat are soooo lovely. I struggle to keep up sometimes which makes me feel guilty because I started the thread 🙈 but sometimes I go to reply and then the toddler (mini dictator) demands attention 🤣

Oooh personally I'd test tomorrow but that's just because I'm so impatient, but if it's negative it definitely doesn't mean you're out as it could still be too early!!
