Anyone out there want to join me in trying for a successful Feb?! I’m sure there are loads of us out there can can support and answer questions :)
I’m 35, TTC #2 and have been trying for 4 months or so. My Son is almost 16 months so out of that baby stage which was so much fun (although this age defo has its perks).

Probably a stupid question but will there be a new thread for March with you ladies. I'm not quite able to ttc yet as I'm dealing with a very long and drawn out mc, but hope to be back ttc in March. Will someone be adding a link to the new thread here?

Kinsella82 · 27/02/2019 09:11

@Lilimum6 yes I'd like to know that too. Now that I've gotten to know a few of you !

Doris19 · 27/02/2019 09:16

I think we can either just carry this one on or agree a name for a new one for March so people can find it. Some of us are also on one from January TWW and we just carry that on (it's now on thread 2!) xx

I was strong this morning and didn't test going to get one after work tonight to test in the morning though.

ale2992 · 27/02/2019 17:07

So I caved (again) but why must frers come in packs of two it's just too tempting.
But look! Darker line!!!

@ale2992 yay!!

So I took a test yesterday and came up with the weirdest white line where the test line should be. Let it dry for the full 15 minutes, and it went and left the faintest barely visible line! Too poor for more tests today so have to wait for tomorrow!

@ale2992 yay! Congrats x

Unsureursula · 27/02/2019 18:54

@ale2992 woo congrats xx

muddypuddlejumping · 27/02/2019 19:11

@ale2992 that's great news!

I've had lots of cramps and pressure today kind of like in my uterus but different from af. Maybe like I need a poo? 😳 it's a bit weird. I'm 11dpo today and have had on off cramping since 7dpo. Also felt quite wet today (sorry tmi!) but had a bfn at 9dpo so reckon I'm out.
Oh the frustration continues!

ale2992 · 28/02/2019 07:27

Tested again, Lines still there this morning although it's not darker, hoping this isn't a bad thing as it was only yesterday evening when I last tested.

Michellebops · 28/02/2019 09:32

Leave it a couple of days. Hcg doubles every 48 hours I think x

ale2992 · 01/03/2019 06:26

Thanks for all the replies yesterday, I didn't test this morning! Af should be due today but I've normally had spotting for a few days by now and not feeling any pms.
Definitely feeling pregnant! Ringing my doctors today and have already booked an early scan for 7 weeks.
How's everyone else doing?

LG0914 · 01/03/2019 07:19

Fingers crossed for all still to test!

I did another two this morning and got my bfp!! Still feels bit unreal but so happy.

ale2992 · 01/03/2019 07:34

@LG0914 congrats! It's definitely surreal I still can't believe it I definitely thought I was out this month.

Unsureursula · 01/03/2019 07:58

Congrats everyone!! Exciting times ahead xx

ale2992 · 01/03/2019 08:18

Also does anyone know where I stand with regards to requesting time off for my appointment but not telling them what the appointment is for I just really don't want to tell work yet x

Unsureursula · 01/03/2019 09:28

@ale2992 just request time off for a doctors appointment! I work in HR and honestly it’s the norm especially with how hard it is to get an appt!!x

LG0914 · 02/03/2019 17:33

Thanks!

@ale2992 i've been thinking the same but going to try ad see if i get an appointment before/after work but if not i'll just say i have a gp appointment

ale2992 · 02/03/2019 21:53

@LG0914 mine at 9:15 so unfortunately will have to request the time off, it's not that they can or will say no I just don't want to tell them until I've had my scan at 7 weeks at the earliest if not my 12 week scan. I just feel nowhere near ready for that conversation I haven't even told my mum. Only my partner and my best friend know and my partners best friend other.
I also don't like asking for the time off as I had to have time off during my miscarriage and then for appointments after and I also have an appointment next week.

LG0914 · 02/03/2019 22:44

@ale2992 Oh i see, yeah i can see were you're coming from. I'm trying to wait until the scan to tell people also so will see how it pans out.

ale2992 · 04/03/2019 07:33

So I've started spotting this morning...

Herewegoagain84 · 06/03/2019 10:18

@ale2992 what colour is it? I have also started spotting - but brown. I bled heavily (with no pain) for the first 18 weeks of my last pregnancy and everything was ok - I had two subchorionic haematomas. Don’t worry yet. Do you have an EPU nearby? It is very common to have a bit of bleeding - epescially around the 5/6 week mark Flowers

ale2992 · 06/03/2019 10:24

@Herewegoagain84 pretty sure my af has arrived and it was a chemical pregnancy, also got a negative test on Monday

Herewegoagain84 · 06/03/2019 10:35

@ale2992 I’m so sorry to hear that Sad how are you feeling?

ale2992 · 06/03/2019 10:42

@Herewegoagain84 I'm ok I suppose
