Currently TTC number 2 and struggling after getting pregnant fairly easily with number 1 (on cycle 3)!
Thought I'd start a thread so we can all support each other. Anyone else on their TTC journey for number 2? I am currently on cycle 7 and have ruled myself out already as negative pregnancy test at 10DPO. Each month I convince myself that I am pregnant! Experienced a chemical at cycle 3 😩

@beansread that looks more positive than the last one you posted so I think it’s moving in the right direction. When it’s such early days the amount of water you drink and how long it’s been since you went to the loo make a huge difference to line darkness.

@SkaterChick I’ve read lots about people not getting a line until after 14dpo (how long is your luteal phase usually? That part of the cycle typically stays stable even if overall length varies). Being super thirsty has been a pregnancy sign for me both times but it’s hard when af signs and pregnancy are so bloody similar! Keeping fingers crossed for you.

@NoRoTrio agree that I can see a hint of something. I have personally found cheapy sticks to give me my earliest shadow even if frer is negative, not sure why as they’re supposedly not as sensitive

SkaterChick · 27/07/2024 21:22

@LemonBitter nope none. No spotting today, no cramps, just flitting between being very nauseous and wanting to eat everything. I've also been really thirsty but could be cause it's warm. I've also had hiccups after everything I've eaten today 🤣🤣🤣 not sure if that's if any relation hahah

LemonBitter · 27/07/2024 21:18

@SkaterChick it is a mystery but it could be a good mystery... any AF signs this evening?

NoRoTrio · 27/07/2024 19:20

beansread · 27/07/2024 19:19

I definitely see a faint line there! 😄

Thank you! I’m so hopeful but I also took a FRER and it was rubbish!!! Fingers crossed the cheapie one is darker tomorrow and I also have a clear blue

@LemonBitter this is my tracking calendar....
I'm CD29 - All cycles since periods returned have been 22-26 days (almost 2 years)
I'm 13dpo according to premom based on my opks (opk peak on CD14)

I got clear positive at 10dpo with my first 2 😅

@SkaterChick it's so stressful isn't it.. are you three days late did you say? Just scrolled back and the first proper line I had was the 18th and my period was due 15th?

SkaterChick · 27/07/2024 18:31

@LemonBitter it's absolutely killing me 😅 if my tests are still negative tomorrow in going to lose the plot 🤣😅

LemonBitter · 27/07/2024 18:17

Noooo positive thinking @beansread !!

@SkaterChick it sounds like it could be good news it's just a waiting game isn't it 😬

SkaterChick · 27/07/2024 17:51

@LemonBitter I know right. I'm SO confused 😅 no spotting today. I don't feel like I'm about to get my period. So who bloody knows 😅🤣

beansread · 27/07/2024 17:27

LemonBitter · 27/07/2024 17:26

@beansread I definitely see that line!!

@SkaterChick that's so strange. I guess all you can do is test every morning - you're not out yet!!

@NattyPeer how are you doing lovely?xx

It'll be neg again tomorrow and Monday 🤣

So in cd29, 13dpo, still no period and tests are negative.
I had another wipe with pink spotting yesterday so was expecting my period this morning but nothing.
So I tested with two tests and absolutely nothing
I've got a clear blue left but I was only going to do that if I saw a hint of a line on these tests.

2days into due period.

It's stronger on the bottom for some reason?

So I had faint pos 4 days ago, 2 negatives Thursday & Friday and a faint positive today? I'm so confused.

SkaterChick · 26/07/2024 08:46

@beansread it's SO frustrating isn't it.
I went back through my ovia app last night and my cycles have all been between 22-26 days for month's.
In cd 28 today and aside from the spotting yesterday
(When I say spotting ...when I wiped after a wee there was a streak of pink in some sticky discharge and that's it) There's not even a hint of my period.

I still feel nauseous and things like coffee, squash and sweet things are turning my stomach. Very slight cramps but they're mostly non existent.
My boobs/nips are still slightly sore.
I have headache basically all the time and I have to wee every 15 minutes 😅

I just want to know now!!!

beansread · 26/07/2024 08:37

SkaterChick · 26/07/2024 07:57

So no period. No more spotting.
Both the easy @ home and the clear.blue ultra early were definitely negative so who knows what's going on!!

(Both @hone<-- won't let me delete this 😅 )

Edited

Oh just seen this! I'm sorry. We're in the same boat. Not a clue what's going on anymore. I've just accepted that I was pregnant (with the positive test) for a day and that's that. If it changes great, if AF arrives... we go again.

beansread · 26/07/2024 08:34

lol...
One day late to period, but i can feel it coming. My boobs hurt less as well.

@SkaterChick did you do yours?
