Just bookmarking the thread to nosy and stuff. Thye move so quick now!

KittieKath · 15/02/2019 23:37

Sorry to hear that @ValidUser - though it sounds like there are still many options and lots of hope... ☺️🤞

cupcakesandglitter · 15/02/2019 23:43

Ahhh pleased to hear that @ValidUser - hopefully you get some eggs from IVF first, fingers crossed xxx

TrashKitten10 · 16/02/2019 06:50

@KatBeCool @LokiCat @KittieKath @thumper59 @starkid

Thank you for your replies. I tested again just before bed and it was still very close but this morning with FMU it was positive! Grin I assume it's okay to use FMU when you're on the cusp? DH jumped on last night in preparation and will be again later 😂

@TrashKitten10 patience paid off! And happy baby dancing today and tomorrow! 👶💃

TrashKitten10 · 16/02/2019 07:17

@thumper59 how's the cystitis?

@LokiCat was your OH in the mood by the time he got home?

@rachel59pink Welcome!

@DayDreamer1707 8dpo, you're heading towards the home straight of the TWW. Crossing my fingers for you :)

@Lozzlepop Sorry to hear you're a bit in a muddle with your body giving you weird signs and symptoms. Do you normally feel sick with AF?

@OhMarnie Baste yourself 😂

@LuckyPenguin Don't worry about your valentines meal, it won't have done any harm so early. But fingers crossed you get your BFP that will be the last meal of pate and rare steak for a while :)

@BostonFern Three cheers for half term although yes, far more time to think and overthink

@MrsR16 sorry to hear about your car :(

@ValidUser Sounds like you've had lots of news to deal with over the previous months. But it's good you've been reassured about the donor eggs if you need to go down that route.

@KatBeCool Thanks! ☺️

OP posts:
Lola871 · 16/02/2019 07:55

Still no sign of AF, due sometime between yesterday (according to Clue) and tomorrow (when I think it's more likely). No sign of it so far (normally get cramps / sore boobs) but not getting my hopes up as having the coil removed may have changed things, definitely won't be testing until Monday or Tuesday at the earliest.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend planned 😊

Lozzlepop · 16/02/2019 08:01

@LuckyPenguin how was the wedding? I was the same the other night I had steak and fizz and am going for lunch today so will probably stick to lighter drinks but I don’t think it would be anything to worry about this early on.

@MrsR16 so sorry to hear about the car 😣 but at least you are ok, things could have been a lot worse and £40 out of picked isn’t too bad -I feel your pain with the white car situation always mucky 😂

@ValidUser that’s great news ☺️

@TrashKitten10 I didn’t feel sick last month but then it’s still so close to coming off BC and I never had periods on the pill so not 100% sure what’s normal right now lol! Felt bloated yesterday and I’ve had a sore head for a few days and have a bit of a sore back this morning! DP wanted to DTD last night, why is he never this awake during FW? I told him to get lost 😂

DayDreamer1707 · 16/02/2019 09:44

Good morning all and a happy Saturday to you!!

@LokiCat thanks I am trying but my body ain't feeling to amazing this morning!! I just workout and then are it as I can eat what I want after, that's how it works right 😂

@Lozzlepopglad I helped even if for a little reassurance. I do feel sorry for our OH sometimes but then again I bet he woul of quite happily had another go last night 😂 they get over things better than us. me and my lady parts are getting on a little better but she certainly still does as SHE pleases so I just have to go with it now. Good luck for Monday 😘

@BostonFern I know, I said to the OH 'if it hasn't worked this time, you ready to go again' he seemed pretty excited so don't think the tiredness is causing him too much trouble x

@TrashKitten10 definitely a positive and I don't get why FMU can make a difference. You need to catch the surge and if can happen whenever. Yes, 9DPO and still going stronger...in a way. Just waiting for the spotting to start 😫

@Lola871 FX she's doesn't show her ugly face x

Hi, can I join,

I'm
31
Ttc #1
Cycle #2
Cycle day 19

Been following for a while and figured I should jump in. Don't feel as crazy this cycle as I actually did the first one. Had utterly convinced myself I was pregnant last cycle but wasn't. Had all sorts of pain and twinges and nausea and a mucus plug, but no.

Determined not to symptom spot this cycle but entering my TWW and know that will be easier said than done.

thumper59 · 16/02/2019 10:04

@TrashKitten10 cystitis has gone thank god! No Bding for us last night, although I ovulated I think on Thursday anyway so I don't know how much difference it would of made anyway. Let's see what the tww brings!

FivexFive · 16/02/2019 10:21

Hi all! Still see some familiar faces here and plenty of new ones! Just to say, I'll probably be back on these threads in the next few weeks, depending on how I feel.

I got my bfp a month ago, but sadly hasn't worked out. Had to go for an early scan yesterday and afraid it wasn't good news. They had to do an internal scan and saw there is a sac and a yolk but no baby. They think it's not developing, going from my dates. I've got another scan in two weeks, but they basically told me to expect a heavy bleed. I feel like such an idiot for getting carried away, but I know that's just me over thinking. Trying to think positively and remember it's common and most go on to have their family one way or another.

MrsH497 · 16/02/2019 10:23

Still no AF here 2 days late was due Valentine's Day . Can't remember the last time I was late Confusedthink I'll hold out as long as possible to test. Just don't want the inevitable disappointment

LokiCat · 16/02/2019 10:27

@thumper59 that makes sense. Always find it difficult to hold it in when I need to go 😂

@TrashKitten10 he was very much in the mood, I unfortunately was fast asleep! Apparently he came over to give me a kiss and I didn't even move, I was that knocked out 😂 we DTD this morning however!
So happy you got your positive! Hope you had fun last night and this morning 😉

@DayDreamer1707 sounds about right! I always treat myself with something naughty to eat after I've worked out 😂

So I think I'm 1dpo now.. the first photo attached is what I got just before bed last night and the darker one is from night of feb 14th. Seems to be getting lighter again, I think 🤔 (first month using OPKs so not sure...). What do you guys think? Or have I not ovulated yet?

@KittieKath - that's what the OH said, I just go into panic! Thanks for the reassurance!

@Lozzlepop - wedding was good. Live band, bacon & sausage baps & They had a baileys fountain with edible chocolate cups. I may have had a few....🤦🏻‍♀️ didn't drink much else though!

Now deciding what to do today!!

orangeloo · 16/02/2019 10:42

@FivexFive sorry to hear this. Don't feel like an idiot. Be kind and patient with yourself and give yourself lots of tlc.

TrashKitten10 · 16/02/2019 10:54

Welcome to the thread @orangeloo

@FivexFive So sorry to hear your news, it's bloody horrible and unfair.

@MrsH497 Sounds very promising! Any symptoms?

@LokiCat Haha, oh no! 🙈 at least you made up for it this morning ☺️

OP posts:
MrsH497 · 16/02/2019 10:55

@TrashKitten10 nothing really. I am tired but that's nothing unusual with my shifts. Boobs don't hurt either.

I tested evening of Valentine's Day with a clear blue and was a BFN so don't want to test again and be disappointed.

MrsH497 · 16/02/2019 10:56

@FivexFive so sorry to hear your news. Hope you're doing ok. Be kind to yourself x

KatBeCool · 16/02/2019 10:56

@FivexFive ohh, that must've been devastating to hear. You're always welcome back here and you are not an idiot, any one of us would be carried away too, it's a normal reaction. Hugs.

@MrsH497 fingers crossed for you!

So I finished Clomid, and finishing Estradiol this evening. DH is still alive, his head isn't ripped off his body, and I can't say I've had any severe or even mild emotional symptoms. Didn't have that energy from the estrogen like @starkid either. Kind of worried if it all even worked now. Opk is negative but I'm only CD12, it's getting darker though.

Lozzlepop · 16/02/2019 10:57

@DayDreamer1707 yes the lady parts def do as they please 😂

@LuckyPenguin sounds like a good night, I love a Baileys I’ve never heard of a Baileys fountain though, that sounds delightful!

@LokiCat, the second one deffo looks lighter so looks to me like you have ovulated! I never even thought about continuing with OPKs after getting a positive 🤦🏽‍♀️

@FivexFive so sorry to hear this, sending lots of love you way! Xx

MrsR16 · 16/02/2019 11:02

@FivexFive oh hun I'm really sorry to read that... sending virtual hugs your way! Xx

@MrsH497 fingers crossed for you!!

LokiCat · 16/02/2019 11:06

@FivexFive sorry earlier cross posts with yours. I'm really sorry to hear your news. You're not idiot, it's very understandable to get excited. Take some time for yourself, lots of love 

@Lozzlepop Thanks! I think I became a bit obsessed with testing, so just continued 🙈 (I'm glad I did because I thought I'd already ovulated last week!). Will stop myself now though.

@MrsH497 Fingers crossed you get your BFP 🤞🏽❤️

@thumper59 glad your cystitis is gone!

KittieKath · 16/02/2019 11:10

@FivexFive

I am so sorry to hear this, and what a rollercoaster of emotion. I am already planning nursery colours and middle names when I have a twinge during the 2WW... I wold be so emotionally invested after a BFP.

Stay positive, falling pregnant at all is a good sign. And people say it's easier to fall pregnant again after one sticky bean...

🤞for you xxxx

ValidUser · 16/02/2019 11:25

@KatBeCool apparently it's in a terrible position for egg harvesting, but might shift once the right is taking up less space. Or they might be able to un-anchor it during the op.

@KittieKath I'm so glad we got tested early.

@cupcakesandglitter It really is good. How are you doing?

@Lozzlepop Such a relief!

Either way, hoping to be pregnant by 30!
