(Think) I ovulated on Sunday. DTD several times at the right times(I think!) so it’s just a case of waiting now... boy oh boy, I’m driving myself nuts!! DH has no idea when I ovulate(don’t think he wants to know as it puts the pressure on him) so I’m flying solo on the 2ww. Which is where you guys come in Grin
Anyone else in the same boat? Fancy talking each other down from THAT shelf in the supermarket??

I think doing IC for me definitely keeps me sane, just so I'm prepared 😂

Somethininthewater · 23/10/2017 23:45

I honestly don’t know what to prepare myself for?? These pains I’m getting are making me wonder. Is it a really weird af due to stopping the pill(although never had this before when I’ve stopped it) or is this a good sign?

Yeah I know how you feel, I'm having so many weird symptoms ATM but I'm just thinking well is it af coming or is it from coming off the pill but I've never experienced it like this before

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 02:51

Yeah I feel the same, although I don't know what symptoms are from coming off the pill as this is first time. Just need to get in my head that if AF comes then try not to be disappointed haha. Secretly done a Poundland test this morning bfn as presumed so roll on AF.

Morning girls!! Well this morning at 3am I needed a wee so did a test and I got a very faint line on a clear blue early detection (Superdrug early detection showed nothing) woke up DH and got him to tell me what he saw whilst I covered the label so he didn't know what he was looking for and he said he could see a line down the middle! The picture I took doesn't show the line at all but in real life there was definitely a line!

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 07:12

It's sooo faint on the pic. Can anyone see it?

I can see a v v faint one 😁 yay congrats

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 07:14

@igh05 it's so faint I can't see it but I believe you :) retest tomorrow or Thursday to get a stronger line. Apparently pregnancy hormones get stronger every two days. So excited for you!

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 07:26

Morning ladies! How’s is everyone doing?
Has anyone else who got their BFP got sleeping issues? I wake up at around 3/4am and am wide awake. Don’t manage to go back to sleep for about an hour. This morning it kind of worked for another couple of hours, but I’m shattered. I’m someone who needs a lot of sleep!! How ironic, says the woman about to not get any sleep from July onwards at all...
Husband got up and went for a wee just then, when he was gone I farted so loudly that he looked out the window to see what’s going on 🙈😂 can’t wait to tell him that it’s his child not me!
Also apologies for TMI, please do tell me off when I’m going I to too much detail. I personally don’t think there is TMI in TTC.

On a positive note, my line is getting stronger and stronger, don’t have to squint anymore. (Sorry for attaching ANOTHER photo. It’ll be my last until I have it on a digital on Thursday.)

Not sure why the camera does pick it up like it looked in real life, hence why I asked DH who I though would say he saw nothing and it was my eyes playing tricks and he said it straight away and said it was quite obvious. Will test again tomorrow as I have one more early detection test left, then will test on Thursday/Friday with a normal test. I don't think it will feel real till AF doesn't show but I feel a slight bit of relief and more hopeful!

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 07:30

@lgh05 I can see something!!! Congrats! 🤗 Can you get a pink dye test? Best a FRER? They do double packs at boots and also on amazon (+prime) and they’re the best tests you can get. Take that and you know for sure! OMG this is sooo exciting!!

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 07:32

@lgh05 don’t worry about not showing on pictures. I for the life of me could not get a photo of the line on 10dpo. Give it a couple of days and you’ll be able to see it well on camera. So have you told your husband that he was looking at a pregnancy test and that it’s positive?

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 07:34

@Peanutty86 I am exactly the same currently 11dpo but with my daughter my sleeping patterns were just the same, getting up in the middle of the night quite alert then staying for an hour or two. I also get very vivid dreams when I am pregnant, and later on in pregnancy I got night terrors which I didn't know where an pregnancy symptom till I went through it myself. Apparently it's hormones (like everything) I also am a person who needs their sleep to function! With a July birth the light mornings will help with us getting up at silly hours. With my DD she was November and it was cold and dark and grim for all those night feeds!

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 07:34

@Peanutty86 your fart story made me laugh hard, great start to my work day! I'm so happy your lines getting stronger! I wish mine was like that. Although I know I'm testing with shitty cheap tests nothing expensive. I find myself waking up between 2:30-3am and can't sleep for like an hour. It's annoying and so not me. I sleep like a hibernated bear!! Snoring my ass off ! Lol

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 07:37

@Peanutty86 @Igh05 Can I ask if any of you are feeling any symptoms today? Because other than a tight feeling in my tummy I have nothing. Prob will have a backache later on today as usual. But just wondering :)

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 07:37

@Peanutty86 awwww thank you! It's so frustrating when you can see something but then start doubting your own eyes! Yeah he knows he is still asleep now but was over the moon at 3am 😂 but we didn't talk about it much, just both nodded off.

Your line is definitely stronger I've just scrolled through! How exciting! Definitely going to test tomorrow again and then AF is due Friday so can move on to normal test then I presume.

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 07:41

@Gem173 really positive about the sleep thing. Honestly it was the first indicator for me, it just felt very familiar to when I was pregnant last time and I also am up at 3am for an hour but I remember getting up at that time 4 years ago when I was pregnant, it's so odd! The vivid dreams were a sign for me too, but I didn't want to jump on it until I got my positive. Other than that I have no symptoms at all! No spotting, no sore boobs etc...

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 07:42

I have to say as well last night I did feel sickly and had to eat my tea quite slow, but that may be none pregnancy related as the day before I had just got back of holiday and not slept.

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 07:44

@Igh05 I had a dream last night I got a positive but in my dream when I turned around instead of seeing my Oh I saw my mum and she was holding a positive preg test too. And I thought wtf we both can't be pregnant. Then I woke up. Another dream I had was a spider attacking me, it was so real (I also sleepwalk) that I got up and started attacking it but ofcourse there was nothing there, ended up hitting my oh round the head with a book :/

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 07:45

@lgh05 that’s a very very good point about it being lighter for night feeds!! Just dreading the time until then... I’ll get some lavender oily to drop on my pillow, it usually helps...

@Gem173 glad I could make you laugh! Ever since we got burgled the other week we just panic about every little noise. Not that it was little though....
Symptoms I would say I’m wide awake, very unusual. And cramps. Not period cramps but I think someone is very fidgety in there and trying to get comfy. Not that I complain, it’s just weird. Also absolutely no sore boobs yet at all. Yesterday and the day before I thought my clit is extremely sensitive. (This comes after I thought on 4dpo that my inner Labia looks very dark and tiny, what it usually only does when I’m actually on my period.)

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 07:49

@Peanutty86 ah right, I haven't really looked at my down below lol. Not after my UTI :/ really don't think this is my month. Congrats guys, hope your day goes well !

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 08:06

@Gem173 your dreams sound hysterical!! Don't loose hope yet, when is AF due? I am tentatively happy but know that is so so early, and technically we shouldn't test early for various reasons but I just couldn't help myself.

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 08:13

@Igh05 af is due Friday :)

lgh05 · 24/10/2017 08:18

@Gem173 oh yeah you are the same as me. Are you going to test on Friday if AF doesn't show or waiting till one day missed?

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 09:08

@Igh05 I will test Friday anyway. If af does show it won't be till after noon, some reason it's never in morning only late evening :/ x
