Hello ladies, my 2we has just started at due around the 15th anyone else? Second cycle for baby number 2.
My son is 3 and was conceived straight after coming off the pill so the whole "trying" for a baby is new to me! Haven't really got on with the ovulation tests never got a strong second line so presuming it passed before I tested! X

If it has a brown look to it its old blood from last AF just been dislodged i get that sometimes. I had a bit of blood when i wiped a few days ago but nothing since

MrsC87 · 13/09/2018 13:58

Just a quick update from me so I'm cd27 (last month AF arrived on cd27) and 12dpo. Had pink spotting yesterday and bad headache and backaches. Today no spotting and just feel gassy and a feeling of tightening where I would normally get cramps.
Totally different to what normally happens so not tempting fate I hope but maybe yesterday was implantation bleeding 🙏🏻🤞 x

Fingers crossed for you @mrsc87.
@kimbles18 so excited the line is getting and darker 🎉🎉and try not to worry too much, spotting is quite normal.

I haven’t tested today but cramping continuously, feels like af is coming but it’s not due till Monday 🤔🧐

MrsC87 · 13/09/2018 14:45

Thanks @Flossytots
And congratulations @Kimbles18 fab news! Xx

civicxx · 13/09/2018 22:23

@Kimbles18 I spotted with my first at about 6 weeks all was fine :) agree if it's pinky/brown I wouldn't worry too much, if it goes a darker colour red then maybe call the doctors! Hoping you have a sticky bean, can see the positive much better on that one, congratulations! :)

@TTC73
I was rotten with my first from about 4 weeks but one of my friends was sick as dog much earlier, if you aren't usually feeling sick this time in your cycle I'd say a good sign!!

@MrsC87 Oooo fingers crossed your so patient I 100% would have been testing at 12DPO but I guess if you think implantation was yesterday it wouldn't show yet would it?

@Flossytots are you waiting to see if AF arrives before testing?

Hope everybody gets lovely news over the next few days!!

civicxx · 13/09/2018 22:31

My cramps weren't painful as such more just uncomfortable and a bit pinchy! Could be anything I guess!

We have a very rare childfree day & night on Saturday and have booked a nice hotel, meal & a show, I decided I wasn't drinking untill I know if I'm pregnant or not this month, feel really guilty that I'm gutted that I can't have drink! (not an alcoholic loon haha but it's very rare we get an evening out the both of us where we can have more than one!) 0 problems if I'm pregnant, be a bit miffed if not haha, think I can test on Sunday aswell Sod's law!!

TTC73 · 14/09/2018 13:12

Got a vv faint positive today so going to hold off testing till Tuesday and see if it gets darker. Thought i was seeing things but DH confirmed it was a line Grin

I'm testing after work @civicxx on a frer. Spotting in and off but seems different to my normal spotting in the run up to af!

civicxx · 14/09/2018 16:36

@TTC73 CONGRATULATIONS!! this is such a positive thread this is amazing! I'm so happy for all you ladies!! 
@MrsC87 oooo exciting, let us know! Hope it's a BFP for you!!

TTC73 · 14/09/2018 17:47

Im not convinced its real paranoid AF will turn up but my nausea is so bad right now and im having cramps which is worrying me as i usually get those before AF Sad
Just telling myself if its not this month we can try again with clomid next month

TTC73 · 14/09/2018 17:49

Ive ordered 4 more FRER tests to test over the next week till after AF due date on 23rd the one i took earlier was a Lloyds pharmacy early one cos nowhere stocks FREers locally

I'm sure everything will be fine my first positive was barely visable, think that was about 9 dpo, I just had a feeling and was feeling sickly which I'm putting down to implantation because it's passed now. Had mild cramping since 9dpo too, still there. I'm due tomorrow so fingers cross all is well. I've done another internet cheapie after work and there's a good line there. It was barely there yesturday but good on the others so my hormones must be increasing nicely Smile baby dust to everyone. X

MrsC87 · 14/09/2018 18:29

So it was a BFN. No idea what my body is doing, just want AF to arrive now so I get on it next month 😝

Flossytots · 14/09/2018 19:24

@Ttc73 congratulations woohooo 🎉🎉
@civic I don’t think I can last till af on Monday to test hehehe. I’ve been having cramps and pinching pain all day today again, so going to test tomorrow morning and if bfn then waiting till after af to test 🤞
@MrsC I’m sorry about the bfn but you aren’t out till the witch arrives.

Sending baby dust to you all ✨✨✨✨

civicxx · 14/09/2018 21:33

@TTC73 wishing you a sticky bean!!
@MrsC87 Yes I agree with flossy your not out untill the which herself makes her appearance! 
@Flossytots I think you've got a good chance testing 2 days before AF is due, with my first I got a positive the day of my missed so I imagine 2 days before I'd of got one also but just faint! If not, like you say just a few days untill you can do another one!!

Think I'll be the last one too post their pee stick result haha!

MrsC87 · 15/09/2018 10:27

So the witch arrived 🙄 onto cycle 3 I go!
Hope you ladies are all okay and have a lovely weekend 😊

Flossytots · 15/09/2018 11:01

Aww @MrsC I’m so sorry. Sending you virtual hugs.

Just a bit of an update: so I took the FRER test this morning and within seconds a white line came up then the control line. I’ve never experienced this and when I put it up to the light I can see a line but it’s not pink. Since then I’ve continued to have sharp pains on my left side. They are very sporadic so will give it another bash either on Sunday or after Af which is due in 2days.

Hope you all have a great weekend. I’m off to see my mother bear for some spoiling 😂😂

MrsC87 · 15/09/2018 11:40

Thankyou @Flossytots I'm okay though as it's very early on in the game so want to remain positive 😊
Got my fingers crossed for you, keep us updated!

civicxx · 15/09/2018 11:54

Sorry @MrsC87 hugs to you & good luck for cycle 3!! 

@Flossytots I've never heard of a white line must be something up with the test, hope it's hiding a positive for you!! Have a lovely weekend!!

I'm 9DPO today & day 23 of a 27 day cycle so technically think I could have tested with FRER this morning but I woke up busting & forgot hahaha, oops!! Going to try and hold off closer to AF being due!

Kimbles18 · 15/09/2018 12:16

I don't know if this will help any of you but when I tested I got a much better result later in the day, I drink a lot through the night so my first morning wee wasn't much use! Grin

civicxx · 15/09/2018 13:32

I'm still kicking myself over having a drink this evening or not. If your TTC are you ladies just not drinking point blank atall?

TTC73 · 15/09/2018 21:41

has anyone used the Lloyds pharmacy own tests ? Did one today and got 2 lines but one was sideways instead straight Confused nothing on the box about what that means

civicxx · 16/09/2018 11:19

@TTC73 did you do another one today? Never heard of a horizontal line before!!

I stuck to mocktails last night & tested negative this morning on FTER 4 days before AF due, gutted, just waiting for AF & next month now! :)
