It's a little tiny bit more darker irl

I've got 1 test left which I'm scared about doing as it's bloody 2018 tomorrow
Don't want to do it now and nothing show up because it's not fmu

Can't pop out atm as I'm cleaning

bubblybrit · 31/12/2017 13:44

@LookingAtTheStars89. I didn’t get my positive on opk until CD18! So you definitely aren’t weird Grin!!

Hey 👋🏻

I’m back! Stopped hopping on the bus at cycle 2 or 3 I think, still been trying though.

AF due yesterday, and nothing. Not even any of my normal signs it is coming. I’ve had sore boobs and been irritable all week, but no other signs.

Leaving poas until fmu tomorrow though. Give af the rest of today to appear!

Oh I see it baubles !!!

cakeanytype · 31/12/2017 14:25

How many dpo r u ?! I don't live with new oh as I hve four girls to settle after 13 years of dv... he lives with mummy n daddy ... which actually suits me in sum respects ... however , morning dtd wud of been good ... today is officially my ov day so I'm gunna jump on him later ... he has no choice

twobambinos · 31/12/2017 14:31

I'm going to jump on here. First month ttc #3 have just stopped the pill and got af the 23rd of December so realistically no idea when next af/bfp will be due but I'm going to guess at around a 30 day cycle so 22nd January as a test date. I'm a serial poas person based on previous pregnancy even when I get the positive I can't stop myself.
Sending lots of luck to you all for new bumps in the new year.

LostMyBaubles · 31/12/2017 14:38

Thank you cakey. Still not told hubby as I'm worried af will start. He was devastated last month

Ahh hun, get what you mean. Defo try and dtd a few times lol.

Thought I was going mad looking at those lines as they are so faint

Saw my late grandma in my dream last night. She handed me 2 stars and said she thinks they are girls.

Eldest this morning again said oh I'm so happy there's a baby in your tummy mama.

No1 else knows apart from me

LookingAtTheStars89 · 31/12/2017 14:39

@bubblybrit. Oh good lol. All of my apps - Glow, Ovia and Flo - seem to think I'm in fertile week now so we are dtd as much as possible just to cover ourselves!

LostMyBaubles · 31/12/2017 14:41

I think I'm cd16 or 18. Not sure.
Today is cd30 and according to ovia I'm on my period (which I'm not lol)

Welcome two
Yup it's hard not to poas lol been poas since dpo8 lol

cakeanytype · 31/12/2017 14:56

Ohhhh I can only imagine wht u r going through ... kids r very intuitive!! I I'm praying fr u here .... I can see any line as I too spent two weeks staring at faint lines ! I feel ur pain ...

cakeanytype · 31/12/2017 14:57

Hi bambino ... Grin

LostMyBaubles · 31/12/2017 15:05

I have 1 test left lol
Debate do I do it tomorrow or just wait lol

In my head in telling myself it's not a strong line
In my heart it's a line is a line so congrats lol

bubblybrit · 31/12/2017 15:23

@LookingAtTheStars89. I think trying to dtd every other day is probably the least stressful way of ttc! I’m getting fed up of OPKs and symptom spotting already.....getting obsessed which can’t be good!

I’ll keep my fx for you Smile

LookingAtTheStars89 · 31/12/2017 15:30

@bubblybrit. Yeah it becomes all you think ab0ut for like 2 and 1/2 weeks or so of every month! If we aren't successful this month then dh is off to get his men tested and I'm going to pay to have a private scan, apparently they can estimate ovulation too, which would be handy! You shouldn't gave much longer to wait now, are you testing again tomorrow?

trippingoverrainbows · 31/12/2017 16:12

Hi can I join too please 💕

Age:30
TTC no1
Came off pill on 20th Dec 2017
Tried for a couple of months last year but stopped trying to do my best to lose some weight first (2stone lost so far)

bubblybrit · 31/12/2017 16:16

@LookingAtTheStars89. Hopefully it won’t come to that and you’ll get your BFP this month Smile. How long have you been ttc?

I’m not sure when I’ll test tbh. Don’t think I can face testing tomorrow in case I get a BFN! Think it may ruin the day Sad. Going to try and hold off until the 4th as that’s right in between a 30 and 36 day cycle. So I’d either be late or testing a few days early. Think a FRER would pick up either and then I’d know for sure?

bubblybrit · 31/12/2017 16:17

@trippingoverrainbows. Welcome and well done on losing 2 stone. Great achievement Smile

trippingoverrainbows · 31/12/2017 16:22

Thanks bubblybrit
Very excited to be trying again.
Wishing everyone the best of luck this month

LostMyBaubles · 31/12/2017 16:29
