Some of you may recognize my username from the pregnancy and miscarriage boards. DH and I have been TTC since September 2016 and I had a MMC in January followed by an early MC in May. We took a break but got back on the wagon last month and this is our second month of TTC again.

I think I ovulated yesterday and we have DTD three times in the last four days, so I'm hopeful this might be the month for us! AF is due on 3rd September and I know it's going to be a long wait. Anyone want to join for some 2ww support? Smile

I'm with you @emilyjayne1990! A long weekend with no access to POAS sounds great.

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 10:33

I'm confused. I think I'm 9dpo. I've got huge veiny boobs that are LACTATING and can't stop being sick.

But now I'm spotting. First pink now brown.

What the he'll

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 10:34

Hell*

Gonna do a FRER soon

Fizzy13 · 26/08/2017 10:35

Caved. Sorry!
Bfn on cd26. No.idea when I ovulated as I'm not that organised!

AlexsMum89 · 26/08/2017 10:37

Oh no ladies, you caved!! I can't judge mind, I was so close yesterday Blush

@dragons it could be implantation? I'm not sure about the lactating! Might just have to wait and see x

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 10:41

AlexsMum I did think that. I have never had it before although I bled with both my son and my miscarriage. Both of the bleeds were later though.

I had the lactating with my second pregnancy from about 4 weeks, and about 16 weeks from the first. I have never had it and not been pregnant. Very strange.

Fizzy13 · 26/08/2017 10:42

Wow dungeons! 9dpo is very early for vomiting. But who knows everyone is different!

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 10:44

Fizzy with both of my pregnancies I have had symptoms very early. I don't understand how it's possible but Confused

The spotting is really worrying me all I can think is I'm going to miscarry. Again.

AlexsMum89 · 26/08/2017 10:50

I know it's hard but try not to worry @dragons maybe do something nice today? If it's happened before with your son you know it definitely can be ok xxxx

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 10:54

AlexsMum I'm trying to take my mind off it but it's so hard. Nothing felt right with the pregnancy I miscarried but I feel strangely positive about this one...then I just think back to the bleeding and worry.

I'm holding onto being sick. I'm far sicker already than I ever got with that one, and with my son I was very sick.

Gah I wish I could test. Because if I'm not pregnant I'd like to know why my boobs are doing this!

emilyjayne1990 · 26/08/2017 11:26

I had a small bleed every 4th Saturday with my first pregnancy until I was about 16 weeks.

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 15:03

You can see this? I think I've got the skinniest line ever!

2ww starts here! Any early September testers want to join me?
BiscayTrafalgarFitzroy · 26/08/2017 15:10

There is definitely something visible!

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 15:13

Just had another look at it and there's a definite faint line. I'm at most 10dpo, likely 9. Holy shit. This is our first month ttc after miscarriage. I could cry, I didn't expect this. I'm still nervous about the bleeding but feeling very greatful right now.

Fizzy13 · 26/08/2017 15:16

How exciting!

AlexsMum89 · 26/08/2017 15:22

Ooh how exciting @dragons !

emilyjayne1990 · 26/08/2017 15:22

Congrats @DragonsandDungeons
Which test did you use? X

DragonsandDungeons · 26/08/2017 15:24

First response. They're meant to be very sensitive. Would recommend them!

Thanks all. I can only see it in certain lights so I'm still wondering if this is real. Fingers crossed!

RandomUsernameHere · 26/08/2017 15:53

Congratulations @DragonsandDungeons that's great news!

emilyjayne1990 · 26/08/2017 16:17

I might have to try the first response then!

I asked my husband today if we should go and get a first response. He said to just be patient and wait! How can men be so calm in this situation?!

Piewraith · 26/08/2017 16:22

@Bubble04 you bought 1 test?! I hope that's a typo and you mean 100 tests, that's closer to the amount we need Wink

Congrats @DragonsandDungeons how exciting

AlexsMum89 · 26/08/2017 16:30

To be fair, my husband is not being all calm and normal. Yesterday he tested his sperm, today he started asking me when we can find out if I'm pregnant and when I told him next weekend got really stressed, then he started telling me he's part excited and part really anxious and is really worried.
I thought he meant about the impact on our lives, but no he meant he's going to be really anxious about everything going ok.
I may have to get him sedatives

Bubble04 · 26/08/2017 16:54

Congrats @Dragons that's fantastic! X

@Piewraith very true, but I am now home from holiday to my amazon prime delivery of 20 cheapies, and still thinking up an excuse to go to the shops and get a frer! I need help lol

@Alexsmum that is so cute! So lovely that he cares so much. Mines so chilled out and says 'either way is fine', but he is already on sedatives haha 😂
