Hope you’re doing okay this morning @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate X

It’s so encouraging when you see ladies get bfp after so much anticipation. I’m happy for all of you getting your bfp, although @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolatedon’t be discouraged, every cycle is new chance and who knows why this delay is for the best. After all, do you really want your baby to be capricorn/aquarius? 😂
I’ll stick with “my symptoms are from pms” till I see bfp, could be this month, next, or whenever. Until then I’m just gona take a good self care, since I’m a nail tech I can keep my mind busy, wait for couple more days and then start testing madness 😇
Last few cycles I was kinda dissapointed that I didn’t get preggo, but then I remembered we were trying to avoid. I got my will this Easter while holding random 10mtts old boy at the church gathering and my uterus jumped and since then I’m on a mission. Don’t give up, just take good care of yourself and update us next cycle

Omg @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolatei hope you are okay? Those lines seemed so clear as well, hoping this gives you a fertility boost for the next cycle xx

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 19:11

Thanks you two 😘 it obviously wasn't meant to be yet! I'm sure my time will come xx

Oh @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate I'm so sorry to hear that, sending you big hugs ❤️

That's such a good point, it's really positive that you know you were able to get a bfp, will keep my fingers crossed for the next cycle ❤️❤️ xx

CrazyKJ · 18/05/2025 19:02

It’s rubbish but that’s the best way to look at it. Like you say all the parts are working so I’m sure you’ll get a sticky one soon! X

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 18:53

It was quite a bit, and bright red so I'll count thus as day 1 of my next cycle. At least on the plus side we both still work, even if it hasn't stuck this time!

Oh @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate im so sorry 😢 it’s not unheard of for people to spot in the early weeks, got everything crossed for you Xx

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 18:39

Well, didn't need the extra tests! Just started bleeding 😞

TigerLily38 · 18/05/2025 16:18

Oh sorry - also some mild cramps too! X

Anyone 7 dpo? What symptoms did you have or are having leading to bfp? For now I just started to symptom spot and my uterus feels heavy but that could be just uterine lining thickening. When do boobs start to hurt and how can you differenciate pms from pregnancy symptoms? I feel like pmsing same as svery month though, achy boobs, mood swings, hungry, constipated, tired. Can you ladies share your symptoms during tww leading to bfp? Baby dust to all of us who are still waiting ✨✨

Hi 🥰 the only symptoms I had was random insomnia ALL night for 2 nights before my bfp and a really stuffy nose - if I blew my nose there was nothing, but i still felt like I couldnt breathe, like it was swollen inside? I normally get really tender boobs about 3 days before AF but that didn't happen, they only started hurting yesterday and today really which would be 12-13dpo and it's in a different place to my PMS tender boobs. Oh and also needing to wee all the time but that comes and goes day by day!

Wishing you all the best, do you upload your ovulation tests to premom to catch the peak? If you're having bleeding early I wonder if it could be implantation 🤔 I tested positive at 9dpo so probably implanted around 7/8dpo xx

PoliteMentor · 18/05/2025 13:24

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate honestly tired at the moment. Flo nd pre mom predicted last Thursday nd Sat for my ovulation respectively but the line only got very dark 4 days ago. DTD that day only to see dark blood while wiping yesterday like I was coming on and I am not even due till this Friday. Super frustrated 😩

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 13:00

Thanks @PoliteMentor how are you getting on?

Congrats @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate 🎊🍾🎈

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 10:11

I had no symptoms except cramping for 3-4 days which is longer than I would normally with AF. I never get sore boobs so can't help with that, sorry! X

Ah @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate thats amazing news!! Can definitely see the lines, congrats! X

TigerLily38 · 17/05/2025 19:01

Ahh good luck, will keep my fingers crossed!! 😊🤞🤞🤞

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 18:44

I'm going to do another of each of these in the morning with FMU, and I've bought a digital that I'll use if lines show up on those! Just want to get home and go to bed now so the morning comes quicker 🤣

@TigerLily38I don't! I've never used them. These are the two I've taken. Won't believe it until I get stronger lines!

Oh my gosh I can definitely see those lines! Your pink one is similar to how mine was initially!! 🙊🤞❤️ I know what you mean about not fully believing it though - I tested again today with a FRER to check the line was darker, it's so hard having no other form of confirmation isn't it 😫 x

That sounds lovely @CrazyKJ! My DS loves the beach! I do not 🤣 we both love arcades though!

Also, I have two tests with faint lines with second MU....

Omg!!!!! Do you have any FRER tests you can take? 🤞

Ah I didn’t think to do halloumi on our last bbq, that’s definitely going on the list for next time. Sounds delicious 😋 Our weathers pretty much the same, seems to be brightening up now. Think we’re going to head down to the beach as the toddler has requested penny machines lol

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 09:40

Oh my goodness @TigerLily38I live for halloumi, it's bloody beautiful!

It's nice weather here @CrazyKJ, overcast and a bit chilly at the moment but should warm up!
