Hi

Currently using flo app on my phone and dates when I should have ovulated have been and gone I've been using cheap home opk sticks and didn't get a second line of any kind at all during the flo predicted time. I've kept testing and the last couple of days I've been getting a faint second line which i think is getting darker. Does this mean anything at all? I've read that unless it's completely the same as the test line it means nothing

I'm confused, it's not that far from my period being due so does that mean i have not ovulated this month!?

Thanks

Omg! That's amazing news! Huge congratulations!!!!!!!!! You must be over the moon! I thought of you this morning as my AF due and now a little worried I might be pregnant too, after a holiday with 2 kids I'm suddenly thinking 3 isn't a great idea after all 😂😂😂

So happy for you xxx

Sorry, I wasn't tagged and I didn't get the notification.
It so nice you thought of me.
Have you tested @minnierose3

minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 16:20

Yes! OMG, I'm totally shocked and not quite sure I can comprehend it at the moment

That result was there staring me in the face before I'd even flushed the loo 🙈 @mshopey

@minnierose3 CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Lucky thread or what!?!
That's so dark and came up so fast. Are you excited? It's amazing isn't it!? Xx

minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 16:44

Not sure how to feel, I'm confused ! Have you told your hubby yet? I haven't yet, feel like I need to get my own head round it first @MsHopey

OP posts:
minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 16:45

Ps it was literally that dark in seconds what's your EDD ? They will be close !!!

We were trying and I really thought it would be at least Christmas, especially after my implant, not the first proper cycle of ttc. I'm so shocked tbh. I did the test at half 5 this morning, I was going to wait for him to wake up and couldn't wait and went straight in and shook him awake.
I know your previous comments said you was just trying to keep track of your cycle and wasn't going to try until December, so I know it's happened a lot sooner than you expected.
My due date is set at 8th of May from my last period But I think I ovulated sooner so the 12 week scan might change it xx

minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 17:09

Yes according to my last period my due date will be 11th may. We just got a bit carried away whilst on holiday 😍🙈🤷🏼‍♀😱😂 and have been very lucky/unlucky depending on how you look at it 😂😂

How are you feeling @mshopey? Sick or any other symptoms yet? Xxx

MsHopey · 26/08/2018 17:19

@minnierose3 how are you feeling? Flowers

MsHopey · 26/08/2018 17:21

I had hot flashes, implantation bleeding, cramps, but the worst is I've been so sweaty. I never normally sweat, but when I get my hot flashes my whole face starts to drip, it's unreal and pretty gross, but so not normal for me and definitely made me think something was off.

minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 17:35

So, so tired! I was playing on the beach yesterday and was utterly exhausted as in had to go and lie down on the picnic blanket!! 🙈 that was strange and we got back today and was practically panting after just walking up the stairs! That's when I thought about doing the test as it was so unusual for me to be like that

How are you feeling about the pregnancy? I know it's been a bit of a surprise, but you was thinking about trying at the end of the year.

minnierose3 · 26/08/2018 17:52

I'm really confused, we really have the perfect little family now and things are now relatively "easy" although I do also know we have enough love to give another baby -

OP posts:
MsHopey · 26/08/2018 18:09

My DS is nearly 13mo. We know we wanted 2 and quite close together. That's it. I am broody, which is mad because my LO is so young, but he's so gorgeous and playful and I knew I wanted 2.
But I can see how a 3rd would mean rejigging things around a bit, but definilty once you're already pregnant they're already a part of the family, which sounds silly. You'll make it work.

minnierose3 · 27/08/2018 08:08

Oh god , I was broody pretty much as soon as my DC1 was born, I loved being pregnant and missed it I think!! That will be a lovely age gap - so exciting is your hubby over the moon? Still not told my DH, still can't believe it although it is sinking in more now @MsHopey

OP posts:
MsHopey · 27/08/2018 08:40

He is happy but a little bit nervous. A few people he knows have had late miscarriages since we had DS and he doesn't want to get too excited until the 12 week scan. I can see where he's coming from, but on the other hand you can't not live your life because you're scared something might happen.
We're both in shock as well because we both thought it wouldn't happen until Christmas, maybe longer. Such a surprise for it to happen so soon.
It's the age gap I was hoping for tbh, so as long as all goes to plan it's going to be perfect!
How are you feeling? Are you excited yet or still feeling a bit nervous?

minnierose3 · 27/08/2018 08:52

Oh god @mshopey still nervous, I know it sounds daft just don't like the thought of our little family changing as things are really perfect and I know family members have already said "you'd be mad to have any more" So worried about their reaction too

OP posts:
MsHopey · 27/08/2018 10:05

@minnierose3 I understand a little bit. My DS is really well behaved, and everyone says they've never heard him cry (trust me, he does, but it isn't very often), and that having another one is madness and there's no way they'll be as good as my first. MIL specifically said we should stop at one, no idea why. You've got to do what's best for your family, no matter what that is.

minnierose3 · 27/08/2018 11:45

@mshopey, that's a pretty harsh thing to say 😱

OP posts:
MsHopey · 27/08/2018 12:06

@minnierose3
I don't take much notice anymore. I told both mine and DHs mom that we're having 2 if we can.
So they can be prepared and show their happy faces when we announce it. DH already wants to tell everyone but I want to wait till 12 weeks, I just want it to be our news for a bit. You know?

minnierose3 · 27/08/2018 12:56

Yes totally know what you mean @mshopey, we told people at like 8 weeks with DC1 as we were out on BYE and everyone guessed!!! DC2 waited a bit longer but told family sooner. I think this time we'll wait until 12 weeks with everyone as im so worried about their reactions!!
