Threelittlesquishies congrats Smile
Not feeling like this is my month. Been ill so haven’t dtd as often as usual. 9 days until af, but not holding out much hope.

hopeful31 · 10/01/2019 07:56

@Lammoshay I'm still having cramps so I don't know if it's af or implantation. No bleeding but no bfp. So I think I'm on a waiting game for the next few days.
2 of my Friends are pregnant so I'm really hoping it's true when they say that all good things come in 3s.
I'm not having my usual headaches that I get leading up to af.

Threelittlesquishies · 10/01/2019 08:58

Thanks everyone!!
Wishing you all bfps soon!
Xxx

cosycashmere · 10/01/2019 13:47

@hopeful31 sending lots of positive thoughts your way over the next day or so!

hopeful31 · 10/01/2019 16:17

Thank you @cosycashmere how r u getting on? X

Lammoshay · 10/01/2019 20:44

Feeling a bit crap today seeing loads of babies on my Facebook :( I know it’s unrealistic to expect a bfp first month but it is a crap feeling knowing I’ve got to have AF and then start again and then wait!
Feeling sorry for myself today and know it’s stupid!

@hopeful31 I hope it's your month! @Lammoshay I totally get it and feel similar. Very highly sensitive to it all at the min. Feeling very sorry for myself but will tell myself to get a grip tomorrow.

Hope to hear more positives this month. But if not got to keep hopeful Smile been advised recently it's the quality of baby making made not the quantity which did remind me calm down and stop over thinking and planning. Stress will never help.

hopeful31 · 10/01/2019 21:20

@Lammoshay it's not stupid at all. There can be so much pressure from others and from ur self. Plus women aren't good at having no control and conceiving and the time it takes is something that we have zero control over. It's all daunting and genuinely draining. So it's not stupid at all to feel like that. Just know that u aren't alone. 😘

MrsLKay · 10/01/2019 22:16

hi everyone , im new here and looking for some TTC buddies to talk to also , my husband and I have been TTC for 2 years now and have just been referred to the fertility clinic , anyone been through this or know what to expect ? :)

Viennawaits4you · 10/01/2019 23:34

@Lammoshay it’s so hard not having control. I’ve always had shitty periods anyway, but now it’s like a slap in the face. Trying not to get too obsessed, but spent ages googling cervical fluid earlier, so not doing so well at that Confused

hopeful31 · 11/01/2019 07:20

Good luck at the clinic @MrsLKay

AF due tomorrow. Did a test and it's still bfn. 😭😭😭

mass22 · 11/01/2019 08:16

You never know @hopeful31 until Mother Nature calls! Keeping my fingers crossed for you. Thanks @Lammoshay you're right this is a process that we can't control and it's so hard.

@MrsLKay hi, sorry I have not done any testing but wish luck  hoping it helps you.

@Viennawaits4you I'm mad at googling too and was also looking into cervical fluid. Once you start it's so hard as leads on to other topics about TTC. I'm now going to try and avoid google and just start back tracking my periods/ovulation on my flo app. It's so tempting all the time though!

cosycashmere · 11/01/2019 08:55

Hi @MrsLKay sorry to hear you've not had any luck so far, hope the clinic are helpful and you can start making progress.
I think most people on this board seem to be fairly early on in ttc, but on the infertility forum there are lots of people who have been in your position and should hopefully be able to give you the information and support you need xx

cosycashmere · 11/01/2019 15:31

@hopeful31 hope you're doing ok. Keeping my fingers crossed there's still a chance for your bfp this month! Have you got nice weekend plans to take your mind off it?

hopeful31 · 11/01/2019 17:10

I'm good just anxious @cosycashmere. I constantly think that I'm not then I think of the light bleed I had at the weekend. Which makes me think maybe lol. Yes I have some friends over tonight, then a full day of activities tomorrow to stay busy.
How is everyone else getting on? Xx

hopeful31 · 12/01/2019 18:30

Update:
Losing the will. AF due day. No sign, cramps. BFN.
Ahhhhhhhhhh it's torture every month

hopeful31 · 12/01/2019 18:42

@Kingsbury982 did u do them all in the morning or at different times of the day?
It's such a nightmare.

Kingsbury982 · 12/01/2019 18:58

@hopeful31 I took the one in the pic yesterday evening after dinner. Then I took the 2 complete negatives with second morning urine. Can you see a second line in my picture?
