A new thread for anyone who needs support to not POAS until 12 dpo! Grin

Congratulations! Well done daisy sunshine, fab news! Xxx

Comgratulations Daisysunshine! Flowers Grin

It looks like I ovulated because I got a positive OPK and my temps are higher, but I'm not sure exactly which day I ovulated as there is a dip in the temperatures. All looking good though - I'm relieved my body does seem to ovulate, so there's hope. I only need one egg to be good enough quality to stick, after all. Wink

daisysunshine2 · 31/08/2014 21:47

Thank you :) still can't quite believe it! Have been POAS all day to make sure! Sending you guys lots of baby dust and hope you get your BFPs soon! :) xxx

newbie6 · 01/09/2014 08:59

Oh congrats daisysunshine, fantastic news!

I'm on the 2ww again, cycle no 5 so hoping this month might be the one, have used the clearblue monitor this month so fingers crossed! No symptoms at all though so not too hopeful!

Good luck everyone else!

HappilyMrsR · 03/09/2014 20:41

Hi newbie, me too - no symptoms though so not holding out much hope. Daisy sunshine, were there any symptoms for you before you got your BFP? Think I am cycle 6. Daisy, had you been trying for a long time?

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 04/09/2014 09:23

6 dpo. Trying not to get my hopes up as I had a temperature dip on 4dpo and yesterday and today's temps look like they might be the start of a triphasic pattern. I know they're good signs, but it could be nothing.

Must. Not. Test.

HappilyMrsR · 04/09/2014 17:52

Goodness biscuit, that sounds rather technical! Will google that now. I'm just trying not think about it, think I must be 9 dpo - no symptoms at all. Hang in there, don't test! Got everything crossed for you!

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 07/09/2014 11:35

I do this thing where I get very involved with whatever I'm doing. Blush I'm charting my temperature and as usual, went far too much into depth about how it all works. I blame it on my (very likely) ASD. Blush

I need to chill the fuck out.

HappilyMrsR · 07/09/2014 20:32

Haha! Well if you're guilty of obsessing I think I am too - it's so hard not to let this takeover. My husband accused me if being obsessed a few months ago, he just doesn't get it!

I've decided I need a new 'hobby' to distract me - fitness! So I bought tons of new gym gear but ... I'm yet to actually use any of it. Oh dear. Roll on either BFP or AF.

pinpan · 07/09/2014 22:59

(Waves to everybody)

Just had a big move and I'm starting a new job soon, so we've parked TTC for the time being - was just too stressful on top of everything else. Now I'm thinking a four year age gap would be just fine! Smile That lets me off the hook for a while, but I will carry on lurking and keeping fingers crossed for you all. Congrats to the new BFPs!

Fingers crossed for everyone else!

Congrats somesort Wink

fredsmum01 · 09/09/2014 15:01

I stupidly poas at 6 DPO. I knew the result would be a BFN but couldnt resist... Must step away from the sticks in future!

HappilyMrsR · 09/09/2014 20:49

Congrats biscuit! How exciting! What cycle is this for you? Sadly I'm out, period four days early for some reason. sighs

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 10/09/2014 18:24

This is my first cycle of trying properly, but you could count it as my second. I only started charting again this month though.

HappilyMrsR · 10/09/2014 20:40

Lucky you, thats so quick. Five/six months for me and losing hope... Well done! Really pleased for you and fingers crossed it'll be me next time :-) x

rubyrubes13 · 11/09/2014 06:59

Currently 16dpo had a couple of bfn been bloated headaches migraines mood swings side twinges due today but nada nothing so I need to do a new thread over tww what next

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 11/09/2014 14:53

Fingers crossed for you, Happily! I've got pregnant first try before, but that pregnancy didn't work out and I had a termination because of abnormalities. It took longer to conceive my DS but I can't remember exactly how long as I was still grieving for my first. I think it's pretty amazing that I've been through chemo and had this happen so quickly, but I'm quite scared it won't work out because my first pregnancy didn't when I also got pregnant quickly. It's stupid, I know. Sad

Tranquilitybaby · 11/09/2014 17:28

Hello can I join pretty please. 11dpo and I've turned into a testing addict. Blush

Should have then in the house, plus they're the rubbish eBay ones that probably aren't all that great anyway. Why do I do it to myself!

Congrats somesort x

newbie6 · 12/09/2014 23:20

Congrats biscuits! Well AF got me also grrrr so onto cycle 6 now.....not amused Mother Nature, not amused.....that is all! Good luck everyone else xx

daisysunshine2 · 19/09/2014 19:02

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been on for a while, sadly my pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 6 weeks :( now waiting for period so we can start TTC again! :( now been a year but now we've had a miscarriage they won't do any testing because we can conceive! Onwards and upwards, congrats to the BFP biscuit! :) xxxx

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 20/09/2014 23:04

Sorry Daisy. x

Well, I'm back. Had a very early miscarriage, which was devastating on one hand, but also positive on the other because I know I can conceive. Just waiting for the bleeding to stop which is taking fooooooreeeeeever, then I'm back on the ttc train.
