Anyone else around 7dpo?

[Prembabymum]

Looking for company on this 2ww. Cycle #4, ttc dc2. Feeling very positive this month; we've thrown EVERYTHING at it this cycle, acupuncture, preeseed, opks, meditation and I've gone easy on the exercise. I've been having loads of symptoms but have learned from previous cycles that those don't always mean much!
Anyone else waiting with baited breath??

@Amolly thankyou ☺️, you too when are you due?

@Flamingosnbears possibly around 21st May.
This next 7 weeks are going to drag until the first scan aha is this your first?

@Amolly this is my 3rd we're absolutely over the moon, how about you?

Just booked an 8 week scan privately; wanted the reassurance of knowing it's ok! Still a long 4 weeks until then!!!

@Flamingosnbears aww lovely :) this will be my first and I'm the same. I have been wanting to try for a few years and everything is in place now.

@Prembabymum ah brill. Isn't it just. I've just been looking at when abouts my 12 week scan will be. Early November.... seems so very long away.

@Amolly I know mine will be early November also it does seem long away but the time will fly glad its finally happening for you ☺.
@Prembabymum that will be interesting have you had them before?

@flamingosnbears no, last time I just went for the 12 week one but I'm more anxious after my last pregnancy endes at 29 weeks and my son had a brain condition (treated surgically so he's ok now though). Just means I want to know more about what's happening. I'll be consultant led this time but that won't start until after my booking appointment at 8 weeks, which just feels so far away right now!

@Prembabymum Sounds like your doing the right thing. Have you got any sickness yet?

Not good news from me started spotting yesterday did another clear blue which still said preg 1-2 weeks, so I rang the nhs24 who asked me to go to a and e which I did and they took blood and sent me away. Called early pregnancy unit today and she told me on the phone that my hgc level was only 8 and that was far to low and I would prob get my period today (some spotting but not a proper bleed yet) I actually feel like a fraud. She suggested I go for another blood test tomorrow but I don’t really see the point I feel so stupid

@Letitbegin So sorry to hear that holding out a virtual hand to you

@letitbegin I'm so sorry to hear that. Thinking of you; this is such a hard, vulnerable time and I'm so sorry that happened xx

Thank you good luck to you all on your journeys xx

How is everyone doing?

Ok today. Did another digital and it said 2-3 weeks so thats good. Just such an anxious time! How are you?

I'm fed up and feeling down. Had spotting last two days and all sorts of symptoms. Now it looks like AF is about to start. I've never had spotting before, ever, and now had it last month and this month and it just gets your hopes up for nothing.

@Letitbegin really sorry to read your update. 

Congratulations @Prembabymum.

Good luck everyone else. Fingers crossed x

Hello

I've never posted on any thread or forum before as I've tried not to overthink things! However, I'm losing my mind a little, haha. Me & my (female) partner have been TTC since August. The first resulted in a chemical pregnancy & nothing so far.

This month however (not really pictured) I've had a few 'almost' ovulations but nothing confirmed, always slightly too light & flashing clearblue ovulation test, never peak.

7 days ago (CD37) I was due on my period however got results of the first OPKs pictured in the first grid - this was confirmed by CM, Cervix position/Open OS & peak clearblue ovulation test. We did the insemination that day.

Since then I've continued to test (awaiting AF) & have gotten slightly dark OPKs. I've attached the other two pictures for reference in previous months to see my 'average' negative.

I also have had heartburn (unusual for me), SLIGHTLY sore boobs, headaches, quite prominent stomach cramps/twinges, lower back ache & I can't keep my eyes open! In my CP I had insemination bleeding 10DPO & by this time I had bleeding gums, had smell sensitivity & started to pee more, non of which I have yet.

It's really difficult not to symptom spot & we're holding off testing until Sunday (11 DPO) because we don't want to be disappointed. Or so I say 😅 again, I've never posted & deliberately avoided reading into things. Because my ovulation has been all over the place (seemed to keep trying) I'm wondering if my body is just regulating again. Also, I have PCOS but my cycle has been 32 - 39 days for the last six months.

I'm wondering if anybody has any advice or knows anything about the correlation between consistently 'medium dark' OPKs & pregnancy? & obviously I have no idea when AF is now due be because my cycle is out of whack.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you
