Anyone around 9 dpo?

[lavenderlove]

Hi wondering if anyone is around 9dpo and wants to join me for the agonising wait? I'm trying to hold off from testing until at least 12dpo but it's so hard! I've never obsessed over something so much and I'm only on my 2nd cycle

No symptoms at all. Was major spotty but have been since loss just abit crampy then had shits then constipation haha wooo. Had a 1-2 pregnant on a digital too. It's sinking in. Fingers crossed for third time lucky!! X

Sigh, just remembered that dh is away with work all next week which is when we should be trying. Think this month might be another non starter already!

@xJune88 nice not to have some of the nasty symptoms! Great that you have the 1-2 on the CB digi 😃

I haven't felt well since last weekend with migraines and tummy pains and I took another test yesterday which was negative (albeit I took it in the evening because I'm impatient...🙈) Not feeling very positive. AF is due today. We will see !

Anyone know of not getting a positive until after AF is due ?

@BobbySD345 I had a negative on frer the evening before so was certain I was out and next morning got a good line! Don't give up hope xx

@xJune88 no way !! How does that happen??? Is it that the wee isn't as strong ? Or can the hormones increase that much overnight? You sound like me peeing one evening and then the next morning 😂

Not a clue but it did. And my last pregnancy was the same I did one to check I wasn't and went day drinking and got smashed then next morning got a good line haha. Crazy bodies xx

@xJune88 congratulations! Wonderful news.

I just did a FRER and got a BFP. Really shocked as I didn't get a positive ovulation test this month (in fairness I started them later in the month as I wasn't going to test this month as I just felt really overwhelmed by it last month.)

Haven't told DH yet as he is away for the day.

Feel like I need to do another test in case it is a false positive? I had a MC earlier this year so also worrying about that too!

@dreaminofholidays no false positive there. Wow!! Yeah defo understand the anxiety. My lines are still quite faint and my clear blue says 1-2 So I'm sure I'm facing impending doom. It's such a nerve wracking awful thing I'm trying to be positive but it's not happening x

@xJune88 are you going to keep testing? Right now it doesn't feel real.

Currently fighting the urge to go and buy a CBD test so sure I will be in the car heading to boots soon.

On my last pregnancy I never got past 'pregnant 1-2 weeks' even though I knew I should have been seeing 3+.

I wish I had some words of wisdom around worrying.... just so hard not to x

I don't really know what to do to be honest. My last pregnancy got to 14 weeks so have no expectations really. Baby sadly died around 9. Guna take each day as it comes. Not ringing midwife till 8 weeks for booking and hoping they'll scan me sooner rather than later although I saw strong heartbeat twice in last pregnancy. My dad passed away same time as second loss though so I think that had an impact x

@dreaminofholidays congrats!! That is a strong line!!! Might be worth doing a CB digi that shows the weeks !

@xJune88 have you been referred ? I got referred on my 2nd miscarriage and they've done allsorts of tests which have shown nothing but they do scan really early once you do catch and then keep a closer eye on you throughout. My 2nd pregnancy the ward scanned me at 4, 5 and 6 weeks, so you could ring them and they'd get you in pre 8 weeks !

I'm on day 35 and still no AF but getting negatives. I am so confused. I never have a cycle this long and even with 2 MCs I have consistently had 28-30 cycles. Also not feeling very well and haven't been right since last Saturday. I know it sounds awful but part of me feels like if this isn't "the month" I just want AF here already so I can feel better and concentrate on next month ... is that bad... ☹

@BobbySD345 no nothing been offered at all. My aftercare was disgusting though to be honest I was sent home the day of medical management which I know is normal. Then offered nothing, no scans no reassurance no help nothing. I don't know how I feel about early scans had 2 in my last pregnancy saw very strong heartbeat even up to 8 weeks and it still ended... xx

@xJune88 I agree you can see a heartbeat on a scan and even within minutes of leaving it can stop so I know what you mean. It gets you excited. We had one at 7 weeks first time, a private one, and the midwife reckoned we lost bean at around 9 weeks. Second time around there was never a heartbeat but having the scan at 5 weeks helped me to prepare for the inevitable.

If this is your third then it is third time lucky I just know it. You'll have a nice sticky bean getting comfy in there 💕💕💕

@xJune88 meant to say don't feel too begrudged because it may be I was referred due to the nature of the first MC. I don't know if it is always the done thing if you see what I mean xx

@bobbysd45 sorry to hear about your mcs. Sounds very difficult.

I did a CBD and got 1-2 week's. I never got to.2-3 weeks with my last pregnancy so I'm just really hoping to see 2-3 week's soon. will reassure me a little although of course I know there's so much that can go wrong.

I did read somewhere that being happy and excited about pregnancy doesn't change the outcome so I may as well try and be happy now and if it goes wrong, it goes wrong x

@dreaminofholidays wow congratulations.. you were one of the original posters from before!! How long were you trying? Amazing news! And @bobbysd45 I know it's crap, happened to me last month had a cycle of 35 days!!! Normally 28, I wad convinced the tests must be wrong then I started to worry something was wrong with me but then when af turned up I was kinda relieved xx

Thankyou girls. Yeah I'm also waiting for my 2-3 suppose I'll know by then xx

@thethreeandme thanks! I think this was cycle 3. I had a MC in April so feel some nerves that this little bean will not stick.

This month I have been so stressed with work and I didn't start opks until late in my cycle as I ovulated so late the month prior I didn't have many sticks left. We only DTD twice this month so that's another surprise.

I booked my first app today, I figured I want to get this pregnancy logged either way.

How is everyone else? xxx

Ahh I'm really haply for you, just goes to show it'll happen when it wants to! We can dtd every other day, lay on our backs, take tests . If a selected bean isn't ready it's not going to happen! It's pointless me saying relax.. but maybe pay for a private test at 8 weeks to put you at ease a little.. I'm due any day now.. no idea when due to last 2 cycles being weird lol either yesterday right up until next Sunday lol.. don't feel any different though, and I'm not testing, don't even have an urge to if I'm honest I'm not getting back into all of that! Xx

Day 36 and still no AF ... I have been really bloated all day and had pains so I was expecting her all day but nothing so far ...

@dreaminofholidays dtd twice ! So lucky 😍 how are you feeling?

@xJune88 keep us posted. You'll get your 2-3 soon !!

@bobbysd345 what is your usual cycle length? are you usually regular? I hate not knowing what's going on...

I thought I didn't have any symptoms but actually felt a little dizzy when out with the dogs tonight and just so tired so got into bed about 9pm. DH just woke me. Doesn't really feel real yet, did 3 tests yesterday. Already feeling the urge to test tomorrow morning again.

@thethreeandme glad you are feeling more chilled this month. The waiting is an absolute pain. xxx

@dreaminofholidays I'm usually 28 days. Pre Mc's I was 28 to the dot. Post Mc's I've still never gone past 30.

I had a flashy smily face on a CB OPK on 24th Aug too so it can't be that I didn't ovulate ??

Will just have to wait and see...just frustrating because the longer AF waits the further into the month we go and the less able I am to catch!!

If you test loads now you've had a positive, you can use those dip pot cheap Poundland ones where the line gets progressively darker as HCG rises. They're what I used last time because I was getting through so many checking I was still pregnant 🙈🙈🙈 love how we are all the same ! Hubby never understands the need to buy all these kids.

Congratulations @dreaminofholidays !! So glad you've got your BFP! X

@lavenderlove how about you? What's the state of play xx
