Congrats to all those with bfp's so far!!

I'm temping/using opk strips for the first time this month and it currently looks like this. Could that dip a couple of days ago followed by the higher bbt have been implantation? No bleeding but mild cramps yesterday.

Stronger IC OPK this morning and the line on the clear blue stronger than yesterday and showing a static (used one of the other holders of the many I have!!). We didn't end up DTD again last night but did it this morning and will again tonight and tomorrow and maybe mon and tue too!

If it doesn't work this time (cycle 4 since MMC where got pregnant first go) we at least have specialists appointment 15 Jan. I know 4 cycles without success isn't much, particularly at my age (39 and 3 months) but everything been all over place since MMC (I now get loads of HUGE spots just before my LH surge which I never got previously!) so would rather get checked out given no time to waste! For all I know, I'm not even bloody ovulating!!! 21 day progesterone test on 6 Jan to check this!

I have a boozy NYE planned with a couple of friends (the wife of the couple is about 13 or 14 weeks pregnant). I'll be at most 9dpo on NYE I think, which is pretty early to test....do I just not test and drink what I want? Am not convinced this is our month anyway and would be pretty early to test! I'm not one of those people who abstains in the 2ww....

coastalchick · 29/12/2017 09:04

Drink till it's pink. But maybe a little more restrained than usual.

HoneyCake86 · 29/12/2017 09:48

@Aridia ouch, sorry to hear that! That sounds particularly nasty Shock hope you feel better soon!

HoneyCake86 · 29/12/2017 09:58

@Lostmybaubles im ok hun thanks for asking Brew just bumbling through AF and making what changes i can to try to regulate my body at this stage of the cycle.

Im confused as to whether i should continue taking my antidepressants-sertraline- (im only on them because id taken them before for PND and just havent been weaned off them yet). Some online sources say they arent recommended in ttc/pregnancy and some say its perfectly safe. Some peoples drs say stop them then others say they were told to continue cos they are fine. Its so confusing. I wana minimise the chance of another mc as much as i possibly can.

Do tell me if im sounding neurotic now 😂🙈Hmm

xLauraa · 29/12/2017 10:30

@LostMyBaubles i just really don't want to be disappointed if I test and it's BFN ... I don't think I could cope 😂🙈

tappitytaptap · 29/12/2017 11:22

@coastalchick haha like it!

coastalchick · 29/12/2017 13:33

@honeycake86 - I'd follow your own docs advice on this x

LostMyBaubles · 29/12/2017 13:43

Cd28 here
If my body was going back to normal cycle i would be on again

Last month was a lil longer

Keep going a little dizzy

Getting a little crampy feeling atm

Honey please speak to your own GP and see what they recommend

I was on them for pnd 7yrs ago.
My eldest was a very poorly baby and it all got a bit much so the GP prescribed me them but when ever I went back to see him regarding ds he would reply but how are you feeling, like his severe reflux was in my head 🤔
He's got multiple health problems and is tube fed.

Ah was negative this morning but decided to try again just now of the off chance! Can’t believe it

surreygirl1987 · 29/12/2017 16:05

Omg @mrs2812 !! Congrats!! Hie many dpo are you? So awesome it went from neg to pos in the same day!

Mrs2812 · 29/12/2017 16:15

About 12dpo I think. I used a clear blue digital this morning which had a loading bar type screen but the one this afternoon was an egg timer so maybe they are more sensitive

tappitytaptap · 29/12/2017 16:23

Congratulations @Mrs2812!
