So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

@Rose that happened to my friend. They were having some fertility checks done and actually saw the egg that got fertilised that month! I have a really good feeling for you! :)

Also wondering where @dolly is and @salem?

Sophsta · 26/04/2017 06:41

Poas this morning and got a BFN. Hopefully I'm just testing too soon!

The idea of seeing the egg that becomes your baby is really cool rose.

MissMagpie · 26/04/2017 07:00

I bought one of those Clear Blue test up to 6 days early HPT and have got the squintiest squinter.

In fact the line is so faint I am not sure if it is there or my will to see it is causing me to hallucinate.

11dpo, of a typical 12 day luteal phase. Feel so crampy I am sure AF is coming.

cakes glad you're still enjoying the rlt - I like to like to feel that I'm being proactive so I think I'll commit to rlt next cycle if I have to. Clearly I'm hoping not to ... come on Mother Nature :)

soph welcome home ... glad you had a lovely hols and feeling super relaxed. Soz to read about your bfn - hoping it's still too early and that your bfp is being elusive #notouttillyourout

bella 2019 ... Wowsers... I'm hoping we will all be upduffed by then :))

anna hope you enjoyed your Mexican food ... I'm not a fan myself but I do love Mexico ... been there twice and it is amazing :))

magpie glad to hear I'm not the only poas phobe on here ... don't get me wrong I'm a maniac poas addict on opks but when it comes to poas on pg tests ... that's a whole new ball game #thepressure #scaredofbfn

Anna2006 · 26/04/2017 07:20

I think I see it too magpie! Altho this blue dye tests can be arseholes! Do you have a FRER?! Deffo think you should go buy one. I always trust them.

@Roseandbee oh well 8.9 doesn't seem very high to me at all. Fx your are very close to that and like you said a blood test on another day might shower it lower. I think there are also things you can do to help lower it slightly so that could be worth a try also? Is IVF something you will be considering? Guess it depends how long you wish to keep trying naturally before intervening

Xx

CakesALot · 26/04/2017 07:30

Ooo magpie there's defo something there!! Eep!!

MissMagpie · 26/04/2017 07:36

Asda had sold out of FRERs yday Anna which is why I got this CB early detection one. Are they known to be inaccurate?
I won't let myself be convinced yet either way. Just keeping an open mind...

olicat · 26/04/2017 08:20

I can see something magpie! 100% get a frer, good luck!!

Cd2 of cycle 2 today - honestly feel fine as I think I'd have been totally shocked if I'd have got preg first time. I welcomed in AF with a mammoth sushi platter haha!

notparticularlypatient · 26/04/2017 08:22

Magpie that does surely look like a line to me! Tentatively very happy on your behalf! Does this mean that Italy did the trick

notparticularlypatient · 26/04/2017 08:23

? Sorry, posted too soon. In any case, looking forward to more tests, and feeling very happy with the number of bfps on the thread nowadays!

BellaMoon · 26/04/2017 08:24

BellaMoon · 26/04/2017 08:27

aw @Sophsta sorry about the BFN. what dpo are you? fingers crossed you tested too soon which i think a few of us are guilty about. hell i even did it on purpose to get myself used to the BFN/disappointed. the mind games with this TTC malarkey is mental #goodluck

Hippychic79 · 26/04/2017 08:54

magpie I would definitely be on a mission to get a free but I think that's a line xxx

olicat respect for welcoming af ... and keeping up the Pma ... :))

ArchiesMamaBird · 26/04/2017 08:54

Soph sorry about BFN, but you're not out until you're out. Keeping everything crossed that you just tested too early.

Magpie I can definitely see a line! Eeeeeeeeek hoping your FRER will show a more clear one for you

Hippychic79 · 26/04/2017 08:54

Meant frer sorry xx

MissMagpie · 26/04/2017 09:09

Hmm, will go on the hunt for a FRER today. Good job Weds is my day off!

The line looked darker in real life than on the pic but it wasn't as dark as yours Bella, so I am trying not to get carried away. It was surely to faint to count?!?

MUST. NOT. THINK. ABOUT. BABIES.

Hippychic79 · 26/04/2017 09:22

magpie I can tell you don't want to get your hopes up too soon, completely understandable ... BUT I have definitely seen fainter bfps than that on mn .... good luck with your frer hunt .... xxx

Morning archies ... did you get your temp rise? What dpo are you now please? Xxx

OP posts:
Anna2006 · 26/04/2017 09:33

Magpie I got my first BFP on clearblue but mine was really bold. I think the pink dyes are just more realisable than blue. But it deff looks like a form of a line. I'd just confirm with FRER or CB digital an see the actual words. fX hey after all this waiting!!

ArchiesMamaBird · 26/04/2017 09:39

Hippy I finally got my temp rise this morning and I was so excited!! I was starting to worry that I wouldn't get it which would indicate that I hadn't OV, but it's definitely risen quite a bit. So I either OV on Sunday or Monday, but I'm going to go with Monday I think. So that would make me 2dpo today

Anna2006 · 26/04/2017 09:46

Woo for temp rise Archies. It's nice to know when it works and you body follows the pattern it should isn't it. FX this might be lucky number 10 cycle for you. That's such a long dragged out wait!

ArchiesMamaBird · 26/04/2017 09:59

Anna Thank you Smile I know that in the grand scheme of things that 10 months isn't a massive amount of time to be ttc, and I read somewhere that the average time is 9 months. But when you're in that position and everyone you know seems to be getting upduffed without even trying it can be so hard can't it!

Dollydaydream2829 · 26/04/2017 10:19

Hi ladies,
I'm sorry for going a bit AWOL. Was taking a well needed break from MN- I'd been getting myself in a bit of a tizzy with some of those pregnancy and ante-natal boards! Bringing my attention to things I wouldn't of worried about before, feeling like a lot of them were in competition with who has the worst symtoms/who has the first scan etc. Not for me! I just want to plod along nicely in my first pregnancy naive bubble!

Anyway, enough about me! I have missed this big ball of PMA in my life and have been checking in now and again with you lovely ladies!
Cautious congrats for you magpie - I can see a faint line and hope you get the result with a frer! Which cycle is this for you?

Good luck to those who are in the TWW just now - these BFPs ate coming in thick and fast now so it's only a matter of time before we're all upduffed!

rose - glad your hycosy went well in itself, bit of an annoyance with those pesky bloods but hopefully it'll be a lucky lefty for you! We do that procedure in my work and you have no idea the amount of success rates after a 'clear out' so to speak! So got everything crossed.

You keeping well bella? Any sickness/tiredness?? And ohb?

I'm sure moo has her booking scan tomorrow if I remember correctly?? So exciting!!

Hippychic79 · 26/04/2017 10:51

Archies That's wicked news, I sometimes wish i could temp, but then when i read up on it and i look at the charts, I'm not sure I'd be very good at it! I did buy a thermometer, but obvs DP would wonder what the hell i was doing and probably wouldn't take too long to work it out if i checked my temp every morning! lol
I'm dont think that many people get upduffed without trying, i think a lot of them make out like they have or they just don't talk about it. I sometimes nose on other threads and I often read of MN's that have been trying a while, stopped coming on the threads, but come back to share their BFP stories - which of course is lovely.... and reassuring for those of us that are a fair few cycles in!

Dolly Welcome back chic, glad you're ok.... we were all wondering where you'd sloped off to :) #stayinyourbubble :))
