Amazing news @Shanners123 - so so pleased for you! 😍

Congratulations @Shanners123!! :D

8 dpo today and feeling shattered, a little sick and the occasional stomach ache. Unfortunately these may not be pregnancy symptoms as my dear grandad passed away yesterday evening. Not sure that all this stress is any good for ttc but just trying to hold it together at the moment.

juney sorry I can't take over the spreadsheet as I'll be away with minimal internet at the end of the month.

Stupid OPK question - there's a line but it's in the plasticky bit, I'm guessing that's not what I'm looking for? It's not in the same bit as the control line.

Emz I'm sorry for your loss. I know it's hard, but try to be a bit selfish and make sure you aren't getting too stressed. Make sure you're taking care of yourself.

ally62442 · 03/08/2017 18:57

Sorry for your loss @Emz01 😢

ally62442 · 03/08/2017 19:04

@HolyShmoly the second line needs to be in the same bit of the test as the control line.

Got my BFP Wednesday from clear blue 6 days early test. I did take the acutest ones from bandm on monday and Tuesday and both were showing very faint lines but as I Ovulated roughly last Monday 24th July , I thought that it could be a false reading from pucking up so early so thats why I did two clear blue ones Tuesday and wednesday and both confirmed but still faint line. AF isn't due to tomorrow but thats only going by last months chart , but I am irregular and can vary between 28-39 days which is why its probably taken me 4 cycles to conceive and I've only been doing ovulation sticks the last two cycles . I keep feeling AF might turn up , I dont know why but I'm scared my LP is short and u might still come on cause I'm not due on till roughly tomorrow \weekend . Am I worrying too much?? Confused

LovePinaColada · 03/08/2017 20:15

Congrats @Tammie87! 🎉

HolyShmoly · 03/08/2017 20:16

Thanks Ally I thought as much but wanted to double check in case I really was ovulating suuuuuuuuuuuper early.

ally62442 · 03/08/2017 21:02

Congratulations @Tammie87

spottyponylover · 03/08/2017 21:46

Anyone able to invert it for me? Think I can see a line but it won't upload 🙈

TheGrumpySquirrel · 03/08/2017 21:50

I can see it.. can you test in morning with a FRER?

spottyponylover · 03/08/2017 21:54

Annoyingly I can't as on a family day out. Perhaps just retest with ones I've got? It's much clearer on invert too.

August Bus -Jump aboard!
MrsLadyL · 03/08/2017 22:00

I can see a line 🙈

ally62442 · 03/08/2017 22:09

On the invert I can definitely see a line @spottyponylover

spottyponylover · 03/08/2017 22:17

Thank you lovely ladies! Fingers crossed for tomorrow. Will have to splash out on a FRER instead of my IC's.

Cycle #1 after miscarriage

I have 18 month old DS. Miscarried 3 weeks ago tomorrow at 6 weeks pregnant. We've decided to not wait for af as just want to get pregnant again! I have had positive opk today so we're on it.

Af due 18th August

Good luck to everyone else :-)

Loosemoose28 · 04/08/2017 01:12

@juneybean only a suggestion but just carry the spread sheet over to the sept one and we can hop on to the next month "bus" thread if we need to. I love the spread sheet idea but absolutely can not even fathom how to do it.
If we need an october one maybe title the thread October Spreadsheeters Bus or Spreaders Hmm

Im nostalgic and like the idea that I am going through this with others that understand and would love to see us all get BFPs along the journey together.

Obviously only if you are happy to do continue it. Depends how much spread sheeting you want to do x

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 04/08/2017 01:14

Well I decided to take a OPK just for the hell of it because it arrived and surely it'd show bigger all. Boom line (negative but still). Took one just now as I can't sleep aaand it's fainter. Not that I could be really done anything anyway, but I had a tiny feeling about it a few days ago and fuck fuckerty fuck Angry

WhyTheHeckMe I'm really sorry to hear about your mc and hope you're holding up the best you can. Looks like we're in the same boat so I wish you all the luck for the 18th!

ally62442 · 04/08/2017 07:38

7DPO today and this Tww is dragging!!! Still trying to tame my symptom spotting. Quite proud of myself as I'm slightly less obsessive this cycle. Tempted to test Sunday morning which will be 9DPO. Probably too early to see anything I know. Going to see if I can resist temptation. I keep telling myself to wait for my missed period but I don't think I have the will power.

On the plus side I've got two busy days ahead of me which will be a great distraction at least.

Hope everyone is feeling as good as they can be. This ttc stuff is tough and emotionally draining.

pixieinlove · 04/08/2017 07:59

AF arrived bed this morning. So I'm hopping over to the Sept Bus! Good Luck ladies and crossing fingers there are more BFP on this thread Smile

ally62442 · 04/08/2017 08:55

Booo to af arriving @pixieinlove better luck for September.

pixieinlove · 04/08/2017 09:53
