Mouse you are very strong. I couldn't hold out that long. Probably going to spend a fortune on tests tomorrow. When air went to the docs with DD she asked why I thought I was pregnant and I said because I've had a LOT of positive tests. She then said it's safe to say you are pregnant then lol. At least if you are you'll have a nice line by then. I've been wetter than normal. Normally have stringy CM after OV but this month it's been different.

MouseLove · 16/10/2016 20:25

Awww how exciting Rose. Have you told anyone yet?? Who will be the first?

I just feel like AF is coming. Despite all the probably obvious preg signs I've also had tummy ache on and off for the last month. Certainly thought AF would show this weekend with the tummy ache I've had. I'm like a mad woman going to the loo every 5 mins. I think if we get to next weekend without AF showing up I'd love to POAS with DH by my side.

MrsRose87 · 16/10/2016 20:32

Mouse I've think my DH is fed up of seeing me POAS. I told my friend because I know I'm happy telling her I've lost it. Plus I'm seeing her tomorrow so would find it hard to keep it from her. Not telling anyone else. Found it hard telling people I lost the last baby so I don't want to go through that again. We only told our best friends and my mother with DD and it was so nice. Told everyone else about 8/9 weeks after an early scan. If everything goes to plan I'll have my scan just before Christmas so I plan to tell everyone Christmas Day. Although I was showing about 7 weeks with DD so may not be able to hide it that long. Good job it's jumper weather. At the moment just crossing everything and trying to use my pelvic muscles to keep it in lol.

Congrats rosebud!

sandsandwiches · 16/10/2016 21:02

Been away for a few days and its BFP central on here! Lovely hearing good news Smile Sorry so many of you have had MMC and struggles. Hoping those are all sticky beans for you!

One more week of TWW for me! Its going sloooowww. Though esp as we're on holiday and everyone else is drinking!

MrsRose87 · 16/10/2016 21:41

Sand I had a couple of drinks last night. Feeling very guilty now.

sandsandwiches · 16/10/2016 22:02

Yes I have had a couple... don't feel too guilty mrsrose I don't think it actually makes a difference in first few days til proper implantation. I did some research with DD1 as my BFP was unexpected after a boozy wedding! Ah the innocence of ttc pre ovia etc Confused

lousylear · 16/10/2016 22:28

I'm going to test again next Saturday, when I will be cd52. No sign of AF yet.

MrsRose87 · 16/10/2016 22:34

Sand when I had my early scan I was 6 weeks and she was very much still attached to egg. She then explained that until the placenta takes over fully the baby gets most of its nutrients from the egg rather than the mother. This makes me feel a bit better. I did an IC yesterday and it was very much negative so though stuff it I'm having a drink. It was totally worth it too.

PurpleHaze1 · 16/10/2016 22:50

Massive congratulations Rose! I'm so happy for you Grin All going well my plan is to tell everyone on Christmas Day too!

MrsRose87 · 16/10/2016 22:55

Thanks Purple. Congratulations to you too. I'm just trying to get through these first 12 weeks.

sandsandwiches · 16/10/2016 23:21

First 12 weeks is worse than the 2ww...in many ways anyway. fingers crossed for you all.

What's your cycle normally like lousy? Sorry if I missed when you said. Frustrating to be so many days PO and still bfn though!

MrsRose87 · 16/10/2016 23:31

Sand definitely worse. I'm now praying that it sticks and dreading the sickness. I'm so ready for pregnancy (even if it's bad like #1), we just want to complete our family so badly. Good luck to everyone in the 2WW and newly pregnant. My fingers (and legs) are crossed for everyone.

lousylear · 16/10/2016 23:38

Had coil removed 25 July. First cycle 42 days. Now on 2nd cycle, cd 46 today. I'm 41 so I guess could be peri menopause. Although no one in my family was anywhere near as young as me.

sandsandwiches · 16/10/2016 23:49

Or could just be cycles sorting themselves out lousy... They do say it can take months after coil coming out and they might be different. Frustrating though when you're ttc but try not to worry about early menopause yet! I know its easier said than done... I'm first cycle off pill and think I'm in 2ww but who knows?!

lousylear · 17/10/2016 00:41

Yes who knows! Have now started using opk but nothing yet. Good luck sand.

MissMagpie · 17/10/2016 09:52

I am still getting several sharp pains in the womb area. They are sudden and then go away for hours until the next one.

I am about 10dpo I think and am on cd30 (cycles are usually 35 days ish).

My thought process is:
could be implantation pains but I know not everyone thinks that these really exist.
Or it could be some cyst again but on the other side to the one I had to go to the doctor about earlier in the month.

Don't know whether to wait for a AF to turn up or not and do a POAS or to book a Dr appt and say I need to know what's going on as these pains are causing me a lot of discomfort.

Writerwannabe83 · 17/10/2016 13:02

Congratulations to the new BFPs!! Grin

Does anyone else get really horny during their fertile week?

Over the last few days I haven't been able to take myself off YouTube where I'm watching videos of a certain boy band and videos of an X Factor contestant and having very naughty thoughts about them all.. Grin

MrsRose87 · 17/10/2016 13:30

Still very faint and lots of cramps today. I'm thinking miscarriage #2 is on its way.

MrsRose87 · 17/10/2016 13:43

Magpie I had these pains this month. Not sure how many DPO as not sure when I ovulated. On a normal cycle it would have been 6/7DPO. Could welloyds be implantation.

MouseLove · 17/10/2016 14:20

Rose stay positive!!!! Looks positive and FX it's super sticky.

Still no AF over here. I'm just staying relaxed about it. Hmm

MrsRose87 · 17/10/2016 14:24

Mouse trying so hard to stay positive but it's really not working. Just want one strong BFP so I can stop being on bloody sticks and let nature do its thing. How can you hold out for so long? I'don't be going crazy by now.

MouseLove · 17/10/2016 14:29

The way I see it is, what's another week wait if I have to wait 9 months. Its not going to change the outcome either way if I wait. I'd rather AF turn up than me keep testing like a mad woman and then AF turn up late.

Rose, I'd say you are defo pregnant. Relax and enjoy it. Being stressed isn't going to help BUT stomach cramps are a sign of early pregnancy. Totally normal. And I shouldn't know that because I promised myself I wouldn't google... but I did. So hey ho!! Wink

MrsRose87 · 17/10/2016 14:35

I don't think I'd be half this bat shit crazy if I just had a proper BFP. With DD I did 6 tests in one day, all POSITIVE so never tested again but this time and the last these faint positives are really stressing me out. I didn't have any cramps with DD, just round ligament pain. I'm so stressed out about it now.

MissMagpie · 17/10/2016 14:50

Oh Rose try and relax. It is still positive now and it's not certain you will MC by any means. It is hugely stressful and worrying but you can only look after yourself and try to keep calm. Big hugs.
