June/July TTC Thread❤️ CONTINUED

Ah congrats @DoubleDandelionline looks lovely! I think I’ll do the same. Period due Saturday - were actually away with parents in law this weekend which is a bit awkward as im not sure what to say/do about not having a glass of wine with dinner etc

Hi @rainycoldboo yes similar! If I go off period it’s 19th April but going off ovulation it’s 16th April as I’m 12DPO today. This was my line this morning, will probs only test up to missed period as I know after that it will just feed my anxiety.

Thanks girls. My GP is on holiday but the surgery will do my bloods today at 2.45pm. Doctor will see me next week. The cramping has now eased. My nearest is Limerick @SureLook nothing but bad memories. I sat there every second day for two weeks in Feb while all these happy women came in and out with their babies and their growing bumps.

We must have a similar due date - I’ve just found out (yesterday) that I have a little bean (hoping for a sticky one!!) - I’m 10dpo which puts my due date as 17/18th April! How about you?

Thank you @rainycoldboo, glad you’ve found your way back to MN!

Ok I’m going to go with my period being due on Thurs then as luteal phase normally 13-14 days. Thank you for the advice!

@DoubleDandelionyay for a lovely line - congrats! Apparently the luteal phase stays the same so I’d go off that - have you got an app that tells you your average. Eg my luteal phase is 13 days on average so can work out my missed period from that

12 DPO for me and line is progressing nicely.

Does anyone know when would count as my missed period? Normally have a 27-29 day cycle and normally ovulate on day 13/14 and period comes around 13-14DPO. But I ovulated on CD12 and even my apps are confused about when my period is due!

Cycle Day 28 is 9th Aug
14DPO is 7th Aug

@ForGiddyDreamer when I was pregnant with the twins I had insane cramping before I even missed my period which went on for weeks, also thought I was losing them. Often had a tiny bit of spotting too. Always worth getting it checked for your peace of mind but I wouldn’t say those symptoms are definitive either way. Line progression on your tests looks great 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hi @HayleyD84- I’m 41 too. I think there’s a few of us roundabout that. I’m just waiting for my period to come so I can start again, I was ill this month and there’s absolutely no chance we could have caught. Fingers crossed you did!

@ForGiddyDreamerhow are things today? This could absolutely be nothing but with your history I know how you will be feeling. I would definitely call epu and get seen today. You will drive yourself crazy. Sending so much love x

@HayleyD84good morning lovely and welcome! Really so sorry for your loss, I hope you're healing as best as you can. You're in good company here with us lot.
I'm not quite your age but I am 38 so at the more difficult end of trying to concieve shall we say lol. Did it take you long for fall with your loss? Xx

Hi all,

Hope you don't mind me joining.
So nice to see all the BFP's
@ForGiddyDreamerhope you have a successful pregnancy and all goes ok 🤞🏻

I had a misscarriage at 10/11 weeks in June. First cycle trying since. I'm 11DPO but not hopeful as DH wasnt well so couldn't DTD much.
I've been testing last couple of days but all bfn.

I'm 41 so hoping my age doesn't go against me.

Any older ladies like me trying?

@ForGiddyDreamer I think going to your GP for bloods is your best bet. I can't remember where in Ireland you are but there's clinics in Dublin that can have the results back in a couple of hours.
I'm sorry this is happening. It's just a wait and see at the moment. I know it's so shit. But try and stay positive x

@ForGiddyDreamer i had spotting pretty much the whole first trimester with my first. It was super stressful but it all worked out absolutely fine, hoping the same for you xx

@SureLook nothing more than walking the dog. I'm 12/13 DPO today. My period is due tomorrow or Wednesday. When I miscarried in February it started with light pink spotting. It's too late for implantation bleeding if I got first faint positive on Friday. Will see if my GP will do an hcg draw. I can't face that EPU again. I just can't handle this happening again. It's so unfair.

@rainycoldboo sorry I can see now that that's not a FRER! But I can still definitely see the line.
I'm only LH testing still. I think I'm gonna ovulate in the next day or so.

@ForGiddyDreamer how many DPO are you now? Did you have sex or exercise or anything like that today? There's so much going on down there at the moment.

@amey44 hopefully you'll know soon one way or another.

@SureLooknope 🤔i’m really emotional and boobs are very sore though so I hope if i’m out it’s soon;(

I've just noticed some pink tinged cm when I wipe. With the cramping I'm worried it's failing already. I've never had a successful pregnancy. Is this normal?

Thanks @SureLook- I haven’t done a FRER yet (I’ll do one tomorrow)

how are you doing? When are you planning to test again? How many dpo are you now?

@EmPeEf your description made me lol!

@Kerrylf sounds like ovulation is near! I'm CD15 and I had EWCM today too. My LH test is getting darker as well.
I completely understand you not testing. You have to do what's best for you. My DP was giving out to me today for not drinking anything for four hours while I was holding my urine for testing. I was trying to explain it to him but he just doesn't get it!

@ForGiddyDreamer I can definitely see good line progression there 👏🏻 don't worry about the cramping. There's a lot going on in there at the moment.

@amey44 any signs she's on her way yet?

@rainycoldboo I can see a line on the FRER and the other big test 🤞🏻

Thanks @ChaE05- really hoping for a sticky bean!!!

I’m Sorry I’ve missed so much of this thread everyone!! Sending lots of love to those with and without bfp’s this time - so glad I’m back on Mumsnet!! I’ll be much better at keeping up to date now I finally have access again….

@rainycoldboocan see both!! Congratulations ☺️

the wait is awful @amey44 either AF is a no show (and hooray in that case) or it’s wishing she’ll hurry up and you can move onto the next cycle.

@rainycoldboo I can see the line clearer on the test holder pic than the strip. Congratulations, fingers crossed for a sticky bean!

Obv I didn’t add the photos! @ForGiddyDreamer@EmPeEf

Thanks @ForGiddyDreamerand @EmPeEf- these might be clearer! I think they’re pink! Fingers crossed
