Bfp or AF due 14th feb!!

[Baba11]

so hoping this month is lucky and we Valentine's Day brings us bfp's. Using opks and hoping for a static this month as opposed to last momth which was a nightmare.
Who is with me???
Shout out to Syncope and kins00

Welcome newbies
@CaramelCluster congrats first bfp on this group and it's nice that you shared your symptoms. Wishing you a blessed 9 months

@Elle187 I think you may have tested too early

I've been having some funny pulling sensation down there ish and enough pain for me to sit up and take notice. I also keep thinking af has come because I feel wet down there and bad gas (sorry too much info). May just be all in my head

Hey @Baba11 I haven't actually tested yet! Just bought the tests so they are ready for the weekend when i'm close to AF! I know I shouldn't have got them so early though because now I feel like they are staring at me whenever I go for a wee 😂😂

@Baba11 I've had similar feelings....

I've been more than aware of how my womb etc has been feeling over the last few months. In July last year I had 4 tumour/cyst things removed from my ovaries, and my left ovary and tube removed completely. It's all been quite tender in there up until December-ish. Every little pain etc worries me that they had grown back or there was scar tissue attaching itself to my bowel or something.... anyway what I'm trying to say is this feeling is different to any feeling I've had over the last 6 months. This gives me a little glimmer of hope 🤞
We've had such a shit 6 years with family illnesses and loosing close ones, it's about time luck was on our side! Xx

@Gilly2505 I'm sorry to hear that you've had a rough 6years, but you are still standing strong.

The body is a weird thing, the pains haven't been cramps they have been painful and enough for me to stand up and take notice. I think I'm 7dpo even though my app thinks I'm 10dpo 🙄. Guess time will tell

I do keep specking af to show because don't think we did enough this month, time will tell

Hi ladies, can I join? Driving myself crazy symptom spotting! Only 6 dpo but today I’ve felt so tired, sore boobs and have some cramps. I just want to skip to this time next week so I can test and know either way.

Good luck everyone!

@Baba11 thank you xx

@StarryEyed88 yes!! Another crazy symptom spotter to join the gang! Welcome 😂 lets hope this week flies by🤞 for you xx

So I am 8dpo and today I just feel a bit defeated!! I'm having symptoms but ones I have been getting most months with the end result being a bfn!! It's been 16 long months and just don't know how to feel about it anymore!! As much as I'm trying to be positive it's been a bad day today 😢😢

FX for everyone in this group, both new and old!! I hope you all get your BFP and don't have to stress for this long!!

Hi @sal1987 I'm on month 14 and last month was the first time I broke down. It's so tough. Big hugs and wishing you a huge bfp this month x

Hey @sal1987 I'm sure you'll get your BFP soon! My sister tried for over two years for her first and it wasn't until she started arranging appointments to check her fertility that she suddenly found out she was already pregnant! The TWW is so tough and our minds play cruel tricks on us but I'm sure we'll all get there in the end! I'm so grateful for this group ❤️ it's so nice to have you all to talk to when you can't talk to anyone else! ❤️

7dpo here and the cramps I had yesterday are nonexistent today... hmmph! TWW is stressful - constantly scanning for symptoms

I'm sorry to hear that some of you ladies are struggling on this journey. You are strong brave girls xx

Welcome new ladies, and so sorry to hear about some of the struggles of TTC. I'm hoping this is a lucky thread and we see some lovely BFPs soon!

@Baba11 I'm hoping I'm the first of many more BFPs soon to arrive!

@Gilly2505 That sounds really positive, and you know your body more than most when you have any physical changes! So sorry to hear about your journey thus far, and I've got fingers toes and hair crossed for you that we'll see your BFP real soon.

@sukisydney So far everyday has been a different symptom, or a combination of symptoms I had previous days so going to and fro symptoms can be a very good sign!

@sal1987 @BLS1983 I'm sorry to hear about your journey thus far, and I'm hoping we see some BFPs from you ladies soon ❤️

Thanks @CaramelCluster and congratulations ! Love to everyone feeling emotional xx

Good morning all.
I found this post last nite and read every single comment lol

I'm hoping to join if that's ok

I'm 36
TTC #1
TTC 15 months - cycle 24 (short cycles)
6DPO

I've seen a few others struggling TTC so I'm glad I'm not on my own.

Symptom spotting flat out but don't really feel anything! Pure defeated at this stage.

Trying everything from BBT, preseed, OPKs, pregnacare conception tablets, nothing working so far!

Heyyy @Broodyaf welcome to the gang!! 6dpo is still early so I'm sure you'll start feeling something soon! I'm 8dpo and I spent last night trying to convince myself my nipples were slightly darker! I think I'm just clutching now 😂

This might be tmi so sorry in advance but I did have a lot of thick white CM yesterday (as in more than I've ever had) - I know it's not technically the best way to judge whether you've conceived but I've heard that some people notice it before a BFP! Any thoughts?

Welcome @Broodyaf sorry to hear about the struggles of TTC. It's still early days, and remember some women get no symptoms and found out they're pregnant so don't hold onto the idea of you need to have any in order to be. I'm sending you lots of luck for this cycle!

@Elle187 I think it can be an indicator, I've also heard women say they have gotten thick CM and found out they were pregnant. I had EWCM for a day or so (small amount) 6 or so dpo and thought why am I getting this now. At first thought I got my ovulation date wrong 😂 so I think CM can play a part.

So I did a test today, of course was a BFN🤣 I don't know why I do it to myself but I've relieved my needs and happier😂The urge was just killing me.. going to test again in a few days! I'm 8dpo today

@justsparklexx I'm literally just off the loo with a BFN and I'm only 6DPO! 🤣🤣🤣
Like we knew they were gonna be negative but a teeny tiny wee part of our brains was thinkin our bodies produce HCG levels much quicker than normal 😂

Who knew peeing on a stick could be so bloody addictive?
Glad I bought a large batch of those internet cheapie tests. I'm out a fortune on pregnancy-related regalia 🙈😂

Ok ok... 🖐 I admit! I also ninja tested....

8/9dpo no hint of a line 🙈 but I also feel satisfied! Xx

🤣🤣🤣
Such a pack of piss-takers 😂😂😂

Hahaha so funny, I love that we all have the same urge and test even though we know it's going to be a bfn! I googled 8dpo positive tests and some people had a line so it made me even more temptedI'm going to test again at 10dpo and if there isn't a hint of a line then, I'll be feeling slightly disheartened!

I done the exact same and Googled "BFP at 6DPO" & Was hoping I was 1 of them 🙄

I know fine well I'm gonna test every day because I have a pile of cheapies down there lol.

Trying to stay positive & tell myself this is the lucky thread & our lucky month 🙏👶 xxx
