@hayleyfx there is definitely a line I think you will be joining the other thread. This has been such a lucky month I can't believe how many bfps there have been. Showering baby dust on everyone else that is still trying. 🍀🍀

YellowDaffodils86 · 15/04/2018 20:11

@hayleyfx - that definitely looks like a line!! Eeek another BFP this is crazy!
Look forward to watching it darker over next few days!!

Other 2ww ladies, hows it going? Im cracking a bit today! Still a good few days to go, im so impatient!!! 😩

BabynameEdie · 15/04/2018 20:15

@YellowDaffodils86 yeah I am a bit too! Just feel like I want to test at every pee so will soon run out of hpts and also think the negative results might build up on me! But just can't help it at the moment, I think because I don't really know if or when I ovulated. How long have you got til testing?

@Cakelaur nah not this time. It's def blank, I was just tired! I'll save posting a pic of a hpt until it's closer to the right day to be testing. I dunno I just feel really like it is happening, I feel like I have a full uterus/lower belly! 🙄😝🤷🏻‍♀️ how are you doing @Cakelaur?

Boboelephant · 15/04/2018 20:15

@hayleyfx oh my gosh!!! That is definitely a line! Congratulations! What a crazy month for you! That does explain those massively positive lines after getting them earlier too. Now I really want to go and do an opk!!

Thank you for the welcome and congrats to all the bfp folks! Keep sprinkling the baby dust on the thread.

@Timewaitsfornowoman I've also just started 1st AF after MC, it's a horrible feeling but trying to look on the bright side that the uncertainty is over and things are getting back to normal.

hayleyfx · 15/04/2018 20:19

Thank you all! I’m so nervous to test again incase it doesn’t get darker like last month but I’m trying to stay calm 🤦‍♀️ I have a feeling there are plenty more BFP’s to come this month!! I have my fingers firmly crossed that there is Smile
I might test tomorrow if I’m brave enough, only got IC’s though but I’ll update you all when I do!!
@Boboelephant thank you! I know I’m so confused, this month has made no sense at all haha! Just staying hopeful now that it doesn’t turn out to be another chemical! Hopefully your BFP is just around the corner too!! 🤞

Sloeberrygin · 15/04/2018 20:25

Wow @hayleyfx definitely a line there!

Boboelephant · 15/04/2018 20:42

@hayleyfx I really hope the line gets darker for you! And thank-you. I really want to join the crazy April bfp club!!

YellowDaffodils86 · 15/04/2018 20:49

@BabynameEdie i am 7dpo. I have hpt which is a boots early response, that im saving, but i do like frer, so might get some of those in too. Im going to try and wait until weekend to test, if i hold out or not, who knows!

Primrose16 · 15/04/2018 21:15

@hayleyfx yes a line a line!!!!!!!!!!! I got my bfp with my daughter on opk first before buying a hpt

Primrose16 · 15/04/2018 21:19

I’m techically in the tww @YellowDaffodils86 due Wednesday. But not been trying this month- going to wait til after my app. Good luck to others testing soon though

TimeWaitsForNoWoman · 15/04/2018 21:28

Oh my gawd @hayleyfx you are so preggers! Massive congrats!

@FireworksBaby So sorry that AF arrived. But I think we should both take heart that our bodies are doing their thang. Let's definitely keep in touch - massively crossing my fingers that this is our month xx

hayleyfx · 15/04/2018 21:33

Omg thank you all!! I’m so shaky and just keeping everything crossed that this one sticks. 🤞 I’m almost too scared to test again haha! Thank you for all the support, you’re all great! 😊
To everyone still in the TWW, I so hope you can all join April BFP club! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for all of you, looking forward to seeing some more BFP’s! Wink

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 15/04/2018 21:53

I'm in the tww and so hoping i can join a bfp group but really not feeling it this month not sure why as tried hard enough lol already told the husband that next month I mean business so to man up and not to complain 😂

Claire138 · 15/04/2018 21:57

Ahhhh congrats @hayleyfx you got through TWW without ending knowing it 😂 hope you get those tests in super quick time and get a nice dark line!

Cakelaur · 15/04/2018 22:31

@hayleyfx eek!! 🤞🏻for tomorrow morning. Although that's defo a line!!!

@BabynameEdie I'm doing ok. Thanks. Just focusing on my pup. Who is just dreamy!!! I've now got off work until 14th May and then I go part time. So just taking it easy. Starting routine with puppy, getting some gardening done. Trying to do anything but think about this little bean inside me. I refuse to believe it's gonna last just yet. We've told our parents? A few close friends and work. But I've banned anyone from getting excited or actually talking about it. Blood tests came back totally normal. And I've now got 2-3weeks on CB digital and the test line is darker than the control line on frer. So it's defo progressing. I'm 5 weeks today. Need to make it to 27th April. For a scan with EPU. I'll be 6.5weeks praying for a heart beat. We lost the baby last time around this time. If that all goes well we're off to Mauritius a couple days later and then I'll come back and have an 8week scan.

strawberrye · 16/04/2018 06:27

Morning ladies. Tested again this morning as it's our wedding anniversary tomorrow and I didn't want our anniversary to be overshadowed by a BFN. Got another stark white BFN, FMU on FRER at 11dpo Sad I think AF is just around the corner. I guess we couldn't all have the good luck this month Sad

Lovemysparkle · 16/04/2018 06:50

Morning all 👋🏼 Af due Tuesday/Wednesday for me so defo near the end of the 2ww!! Not really sure what’s happening with me! I mentioned last month about my very heightened symptoms cramping,very sore boobs, headaches etc but this month just cramping about a week ago, sore lower back & sore nips 🙈 ah & more than usual creamy cm! I’m trying very hard to not think about it & just concentrating on my wedding to gorgeous dp in 9 weeks!!
To all you ladies with the fabulous bfp’s I am so overwhelmed with happiness for you❤️ Christmas 🎄 cake is gonna be a new tradition I think!!
To all of the new ladies I’m so sorry what you are going through unfortunately we all know how you are feeling the fog that doesn’t lift, the uncertainty our bodies playing tricks but as hard as it is (hardest thing ever!!) the fog will lift, the uncertainty will become clearer & our bodies will start to behave!! Huge hugs & love to you all ❤️

Daffodil77 · 16/04/2018 07:19

@strawberrye you never know, but I can understand your disappointment. It's hard not to get you hopes up with so much baby dust going round. Xx

strawberrye · 16/04/2018 07:24

@Daffodil77 yes and I just really had my hopes up this month. I thought the combination of going on holiday over fertile week, DTD every day a few days before ovulation and day of would have given us a good chance. And I really wanted to give my hubby a positive test on our wedding anniversary.

My luteal phase is about 11 days I think so if AF does rear her ugly head at least I can enjoy a glass of wine (or three!) to drown my sorrows to celebrate our anniversary tomorrow.

BabynameEdie · 16/04/2018 08:16

@strawberrye just wanted to reiterate what @Daffodil77 said. It's so hard to stomach af returning when you secretly hope it's your month, still you're not yet out of the month so keep positive if you can. I keep thinking 'ooh yes it's definitely this month' and then realising I don't have any symptoms except feeling full/bloated but that's probably because I've eaten too much 😫. Had tingly boobs earlier this week but that's disappeared. I'm so happy for all the bfps and it does make for a lot more hope than usual, but it also makes those bfns really hit. You're not alone! 🌿

Boboelephant · 16/04/2018 08:31

@Cakelaur good to hear that things are progressing! So nice you have some time off and a holiday soon!!
@strawberrye sorry for the bfn! Hopefully you are not out yet. Either way have a lovely anniversary tomorrow!
@Lovemysparkle fingers crossed for you this month.

I have a bad feeling that I am out this month too. Had the worst night sleep with terrible cramps and awful gas. Couldn't fall asleep for about 4 hours and this morning I feel like I've been kicked in the guts. I also think I'm starting to get those leg cramps I got last month although it's hard to tell as I did a leg work out Friday, walked 30,000 steps Sat and did Zumba yesterday so my poor legs feel broken! 🤣 I feel like it should be too early for cramps but I'm worried that maybe I'll have a short luteal phase this month and my body is all screwed up. (I was originally expecting af today but then ovulated so late so I'm only 9dpo). Also ff is giving me low percentages on my chart and symptoms so that feels like a kick in the teeth. Ugghh feeling a bit crap today!!

OP posts:
Cakelaur · 16/04/2018 08:42

@bobo Those cramps could be baby settling in!!! Don't worry about ff's point system. I'm pregnant and it's only saying 51 points! Haha

Boboelephant · 16/04/2018 08:48

Aww thanks @Cakelaur I'm not too positive but I hope so!!! They seem to be all over though- I thought bfp cramps were just uterus focused? I did an opk last night thinking it would be less disappointing than a hpt if negative. It was stark white and turns out just as disappointing! 😫 the point system on ff is so depressing! It's given me about 4! I think this morning it was around 12 and then I inputted cramps and tender breasts and it went back down- evil calculator!!

PassTheAfterEights · 16/04/2018 08:58

Crap start here too, BFN at 13dpo & AF due tomorrow. Onto cycle 6. Third consecutive month since mc with faint lines on FRER's at 11dpo & don't know what it all means but sick of getting my hopes up (realise I could correct this by not testing at 11dpo any more but would rather know if there's something wrong).

We've been so so stressed with v complicated house sale / purchase and a big move which we're half way through but have no doubt many many sperms are meeting egg so just feels like something's off. Is there any point in seeing the GP does anyone know? Or will we be told to come back in 6 months? Lucky that my cycles are like clockwork but think I will start temping & will have the Clearblue control arm ovulation kits to try from this month, can't hurt. Just feel so blue :( sorry to be a negative nancy.

Good luck to all testers & huge hug to all BFN's xx can't wait to see more lines @hayleyfx!
