Hi lovelies
Started actively trying this month so thought it would be nice if anyone wanted a journey buddy.
I’m 35, DH is 42.
Had 2 pregnancies in past (2002,2011) ending in MC
Married now for 9years so yeah looking to start a lil family.
Currently 2dpo and wait is already horrendous and symptom spotting is in place 😂
So tell me all about you and your journey 💋

@Louise392 good luck. Wish u all the best. Let us know how it goes xx

hopeful31 · 21/01/2019 20:19

Had some spotting today. Only once. Mixed in with white cm. ( sorry about tmi) any ideas

Viennawaits4you · 21/01/2019 21:27

@hopeful31 I’m 5 days overdue. Don’t know how long I can wait to test again. I know I should wait a few days.
I had a good cry earlier, finding it really hard this month.

Louise392 · 21/01/2019 21:58

@hopeful31 sounds like a good sign, I've just been reading some people having spotting before a bfp so fingers crossed.

@Viennawaits4u I am only a day late so far and no sign of anything, keep getting cramps like af is going to start but then nothing arrives.
When did you last test?

hopeful31 · 21/01/2019 23:09

I'm out 😭😭😭😭

Sorry @hopeful31 least the waiting Is over now

Viennawaits4you · 22/01/2019 16:01

@hopeful31 sorry to hear that Flowers. Hope next month works out better.

@Louise392 I’m 5 days late now, still no sign of af. Tested yesterday and got bfn, going to try and wait a few days before testing again. Have you tested again?

Louise392 · 22/01/2019 17:01

Hi @Viennawaits4u tested this morning BFN! had some brown stuff when i wiped about an hour ago, may be sign of af on her way, hope not, not had any spotting or anything yet so far till now, 2 days late.

I will wait for the outcome of this brown till i test again

hopeful31 · 22/01/2019 19:39

In just happy I know now. And I can start fresh next month . I've ordered some pressed lube and bbt thermometer. ☺️ I'm currently having a take away and a glass of wine 😆

It will be our month. I can feel it lol. How many months now have u been ttc @Lammoshay ?? Xx

Louise392 · 23/01/2019 12:28

af come this morning .... :'(
stomach is hurting

Feel like giving up, i have 3 other children and they were all easy to conceive why is this one so hard?

hopeful31 · 23/01/2019 16:49

Looks like we r all in the same boat this month. Maybe next month we can all get bfps together.

Louise392 · 23/01/2019 22:35

Had mainly brown blood all day, stringy and very little red blood, sorry if tmi.
This is not usual for me at all as i usually have brown to start then the rest of the day for 4 days is heavy and red, dunno what is going on, there is not much of it either.

Hi gals
Just checking in- due to start again tomorrow and feeling really nervous this month and I don’t know why?
Thinking if I can do it or not but in waves as in one minute I’m like yes yes yes and then I’m scared the next min- prob normal and I should be enjoying the planning :(

@Lammoshay Thank you :)
Full period today....

This will be my 3rd month trying. I am nearly 36 so want to have one sooner rather than later.
Going to have to dtd every night from end of my period lol.

Any tips?

Louise392 · 24/01/2019 16:30

haha @Lammoshay I was looking at that SMEP (sperm meets egg plan) with opk's and dtd every other day til ovulation then every day for 3 days, dunno if i would be able to keep that up though every other day for 2 weeks lol

Maddison01 · 24/01/2019 16:34

Hi lovely ladies,

Do you mind if I join you all as well, currently 11 dpo and 3 days from AF.

Maddison01 · 24/01/2019 16:36

Oh and bfn today but Tesco freedom strips showed faint positive 2 days ago 😕

hopeful31 · 24/01/2019 21:08

@Louise392 I was thinking of trying the smep this month.

@Maddison01 try a first response tomorrow and see maybe

Louise392 · 25/01/2019 08:13

@hopeful31 do you do opks every day to determine when you are ovulation? Or just closer to the time you expect to?

@Madison I had a faint positive on a one step strip then 3 negatives after on other tests, then af arrived. Fingers crossed yours it's stays positive :)

Louise392 · 25/01/2019 14:22

So period has stopped, so confused?!
Had brown stringy blood 23rd, brown with Pinky red yesterday then nothing at all today.
Whats going on?
