Hi all,

Please can i join?

Ds1 is 14months old
TtC2 for 3 months

Have got the clear blue fertility sticks out this month and starting them today! Really thought I was pregnant last cycle but just a slightly late period.

Fingers crossed for everyone!

Test date is 15th March

Sorry to hear AF got you, @CoconutGal.

Welcome, @twinkydink!

Did anyone here get smell aversions when they were pregnant with DC1? I didn’t so no idea when in the pregnancy they can start. It’s just that I was just changing DD’s dirty nappy and the smell made me gag so much I thought I was going to puke. Normally her nappies don’t really bother me. I fact this is the first time it’s happened since she was born and she’s 10 months now!

I’m currently about 7 or 8 dpo. Can you get smell aversions that early? Or was it just a really bad nappy? 😂

Catscakeandchocolate · 21/02/2018 18:51

Currently sitting on my hands and trying not to test. 10dpo and have had lots of funny symptoms this month but have had these before and still AF arrived. Have a clearblue digital waiting but should i get some frers?

Cariad2017 · 23/02/2018 20:36

I’ve started a March thread for all those who end up needing to hop over. Here’s hoping the arrival of Spring will bring a flurry of BFPs in its wake. Xxx

Anyone used Fitbit hr tracking? Last month mine rose leading up to AF coming then dipped following AF arrival but has last two days dipped slightly and AF due in 5days so not sure what that means. Earlier this month it was 56-58bpm, it rose to 59 for two days then up to 60 for two days and then followed this pattern until Wednesday when it got 63 and then dipped to 62 then 61 today. Oh I was so much more carefree trying for #1!!

sarahhh1984 · 26/02/2018 09:23

Oh my God, please tell me someone else can see this line too! So happy. My EDD is 7 November. Only tested on a whim because I’ve had a lingering cold since roughly 5dpo now and a cold was my first symptom with DD.

Can’t believe it!

I see it @sarahhh1984 !! Congratulations I hope it gets darker in a couple of days for you.

I was about to post as AF due on Wednesday did IC yesterday and this morning both BFN 🙁 so am thinking might be off to the March bus soon.

sarahhh1984 · 26/02/2018 11:27

Thank you, @MiniMinions.

Don't count yourself out until AF arrives. You never know! I've had no symptoms whatsoever apart from this cold and AF would have been due on Wednesday. Fingers crossed for you.

whiningandwining · 26/02/2018 21:26

Hello! Got my BFP on Friday morning. Managed to wait until I was a day late to test and got a strong positive line on a FRER.
Feeling excited and nervous now.
Congratulations to everyone else who's got theirs.

MiniMinions · 27/02/2018 09:06

Congratulations @whiningandwining!!

SakuraSunrise · 27/02/2018 09:29

Congratulations @whiningandwining and @sarahhh1984! AF due today so I tested with FMU, wasn't holding out much hope as I've had zero symptoms, but this appeared within seconds!! I'm in total shock but very happy Smile

HidCat · 27/02/2018 09:34

@MiniMinions I noticed a rise in resting Heart rate as an early symptom in my last pregnancy. I don't think it works for everyone but mine jumped by about 8bpm and stayed there.

HidCat · 27/02/2018 09:35

Congratulations to al the ladies with their BFPs!

MiniMinions · 27/02/2018 09:52

Congratulations @SakuraSunrise!

@HidCat that's interesting, last month mine just rose until AF arrived and then declined. Whereas this month it has dipped since Wednesday (CD23)and then stayed at 61 the last few days (currently CD29). Will see what happens tomorrow and if AF comes or not!

SakuraSunrise · 27/02/2018 10:12

Thanks @MiniMinions, I'm so excited but nervous. Last month my RHR peaked at ovulation, then dipped, then climbed for a few days then fell again and stayed low through AF. This month it peaked at ovulation, dipped and then has climbed and stayed high. I'd read that could be an early indication of a BFP but didn't allow myself to believe it as I only got my Fitbit at Xmas so only had one previous month to compare it to.

sarahhh1984 · 27/02/2018 10:37

Congratulations @SakuraSunrise and @whiningandwining! Did an FRER this morning and the line was much stronger! Grin

whiningandwining · 27/02/2018 14:27

Big congratulations @sarahhh1984 and @SakuraSunrise!

MiniMinions · 27/02/2018 15:34

Great news @sarahhh1984

LopeyLopez · 27/02/2018 21:51

Wow, congrats on all the recent BFPs!!! The last few days of February brought us luck at last! ❤️

Cariad2017 · 27/02/2018 22:22

Enormous congratulations on all the BFPs. The snowy weather has evidently bought a flurry of BFPs in its wake. Wishing you all a very happy and healthy nine months. 🤞🍀🤞🍀

MiniMinions · 28/02/2018 09:27

OK so AF due today, have got some slight cramping so don't want to get hopes up but did an IC this morning and can I have some eyes please? Is that a faint line or am I seeing something that isn't there?

TTC #2 February BFPs
HidCat · 28/02/2018 11:10

@MiniMinions that looks like a positive line to me!

Funkyemzie · 28/02/2018 11:39

Yep, I'm bloody useless with seeing lines but saw that one straight away. Congratulations sweet and to everyone so far! 💗💗

MiniMinions · 28/02/2018 13:19

Ok thanks ladies, I will try and find a supermarket that has a FRER as I know that Sainsburys on way home from work doesn't stock them. Do any supermarkets stock them or can you only get online now?
