TTC first baby! Continued...

New thread!
@Delilah7 @daisiesandpeonies @Crossfitgirl

@MrsM2017 try testing again tomorrow and then the day after (assuming AF doesn't turn up). Sometimes it takes a while for the HcG to be strong enough

Thanks @FlapJackered was wondering why mine had increased for two days but could just be normal (or due to taking the temp at a different time with it being the weekend!)

So ladies, here's one for you. According to Flo, I'm due to ovulate today. I couldn't sleep last night at all, I was ridiculously warm and I had a horrible pain in my side! Is this normal???

Morning lovely ladies ❤️

Thanks everyone - will hold out a day or two and test again depending on whether AF shows or not 😊

Morning @Delilah7, how are you today? x

@MrsR16 could it be ovulation pain? I get a dull ache, sort of like a cramp in what I imagine is my ovary the day I ovulate x

@MrsM2017 I'm ok thank you. Feeling tired from yesterday but ok. I had quite abit of white discharge yesterday in my knickers but other than that I've been distracted haha. How're you? I'd say that would be ovulation pain. Any CM to go with it? X

@sunshine1987 I'm not sure! I'm hoping so 😊 I've only been off my pill a little while so my body's still sorting itself out

@MrsR16 fingers crossed! I didn't even realise I got pains when I ovulated until I started tracking my cycles. Funny how you don't notice stuff before

Morning gang! Sounds like it could be ovulation pain @MrsR.

How is everyone?

I agree, sounds like ovulation pain to me @mrsR16.
Sooo we have finally booked our holiday for September (YAY!!) and had a realisation about dates...

AF is due the day before we fly! Soooo if I DO get pregnant this cycle... I may not find out until the morning we go, or even a few days into the holiday!
May have to pack some tests!!!

Anyone who is already pregnant, how have you all been feeling in the first week or two after finding out? I've heard it's fine to fly in the first trimester, but I'm now worrying about all sorts - what if I feel unwell and can't fly or something?? What if I'm too nauseous to enjoy the holiday? The thought of not being right, whilst being in a foreign country isn't nice.

I'd probably ring my own GP and ask for a telephone appointment!! Ahh always a worrier.

At least if I'm not pregnant, I'll be on holiday and can get wasted!!!

@crystalblaze Congratulations!!

Just got my positive opk :D Do you guys count dpo from the day after the positive opk or the day after that? As positive opk suggests o will happen in like 24 hours time right???

@Malichick I got 2 straight days of blazing positive OPKs. Apparently you time from the start of the surge, but I've been counting day after my first positive because ovulation is likely the day after (might be sooner for some, particularly as you get older - I'm 28 so not there yet, I don't think!)

Apparently temping helps confirm. I might try that this month.

@malichick I have counted the day after, and so have my apps when I put my positive result in.

Just found a way to articulate why I prefer Ovia to Flo.

I logged a negative test. Flo told me not to worry that I didn't get pregnant first month (even though it's still advising I wait 4 days to test). Ovia told me that a negative test didn't mean I wasn't pregnant. I think their algorithms are better and left me with more hope.

Then again, I'm awful precious about myself me. 😂

@Malichick my apps do it that I get a positive OPK on the Friday, ovulate 24 hours later on the Saturday then 1DPO is the Sunday. Hope that makes sense. So if you've got a positive today you're likely to ovulate around 24 hours later so the day after that is 1DPO x

Hi ladies, need some opinions, AF is due anytime now. I can’t say I’m late as it comes anywhere between day 28 & 35, I’m currently day 33. Took a test this morning, am I hallucinating or do I see a faint second line? Afraid I’m seeing what I want to see so don’t trust my judgement.

@NewSparkle I definitely see it!!!

@NewSparkle it's not even faint. Congratulations! ❤️

How many dpo are you?

Thanks guys x

@Newsparkle that’s a definite line!!! Congratulations 😁😁😁

That’s definitely a line newsparkle, congratulations!

Too scared to get excited. oh my gosh. Il test the next few mornings to see. Thanks ladies, baby dust to us all !!

Definitely a line @newsparkle, congratulations!!!

Congrats @NewSparkle !! Xx

Congratulations newsparkle
