MrsAW2018 · 17/02/2019 13:15

@BostonFern thank you, she's normally very good with me so fingers crossed!

@AngeloMysterioso no not on anything for my thyroid and my last blood test was normal but I've heard it needs to be under 2 to be easier to conceive and I wouldn't be surprised if it was near the higher end of normal.

@Babytrain89 thank you, hopefully the next two weeks until the FW will go quickly.

@KatBeCool the doctor didn't actually go through the results with me, she just said they were all normal. Were your levels in the normal range or was it too high?

@DayDreamer1707 Thank you, hopefully will be back soon when I get over the fact I'm onto cycle 9 with no signs of getting pregnant 😩

TrashKitten10 · 17/02/2019 13:28

@MrsAW2018 So sorry to hear about AF turning up. I hope the doctors appointment proves helpful

@BostonFern men!! My OH is currently outside sorting our new fence. I think I might lock the back door so he doesn't drag any dirt in with him 😂 I currently have back ache which isn't a good sign, could be all the cleaning though x

thumper59 · 17/02/2019 13:52

@MrsAW2018 sorry that AF turned up. Do what is best for you. 💕

I've had a nice big Sunday lunch. CD 21 today. And 3DPO. I don't know why I'm just feeling a little deflated about ttc today. Maybe I'm just a bit tired! See what the end of this cycle brings. I just don't feel like it'll be a BFP 😐 I know it's to early to know either way. Argh I just wish it was easier!

BostonFern · 17/02/2019 13:54

I'm sure it's just the cleaning @DayDreamer1707 !
Haha, I'd be tempted to lock him out too- DP wants to take some bits to the tip later, so I'm postponing doing much more cleaning until he has done that as he is bound to make a mess in the process!

Really got the urge to POAS already, but I know I need to be patient as it's still to early really. Just watched a YouTube video which includes someone buying very cute baby clothes, which hasn't helped either.

Babytrain89 · 17/02/2019 13:56

Pretty sure AF is here. Unless it's a very random spot...but I doubt it. That's likely me out for this month. Trying to be positive but just feel a bit deflated.

DayDreamer1707 · 17/02/2019 14:18

@thumper59 I have moments like that all the time, it's the waiting and now knowing. I'd rather just know!!

@BostonFern I know I want to POAS but I'm too scared to see the result and I'm also petrified of it being positive and then having a chemical.

@Babytrain89 do you normally get some spotting? It seems to be my new normal, but like we was saying earlier, what is ever normal when it come to this TTC malarkey. Hope it's not AF x

BostonFern · 17/02/2019 14:32

@DayDreamer1707 I think that's why I'm resisting POAS, incase of a chemical.

@Babytrain89 I'm crossing my fingers for you that it's just spotting.

@thumper59 the waiting is so hard, but at least we have this community to keep us going.

Lola871 · 17/02/2019 15:07

Oh no @BabyTrain, hope it's not AF for you!

We're going to visit our friends and their 3 week old this afternoon so I've been looking at cute baby clothes to buy them a present!

MrsH497 · 17/02/2019 15:18

3 days late now feeling a bit sicky so POAS and BFN what the hell is going on with me I have never been late

BostonFern · 17/02/2019 15:37

@MrsH497 sorry to hear you are in limbo.

MrsH497 · 17/02/2019 15:44

Thanks @BostonFern i just don't know what's going on. Honestly thought if I was pregnant it would've shown up

KatBeCool · 17/02/2019 16:05

@MrsAW2018 my TSH was 4.89. It's not concerning unless there are symptoms or ttc. My GP immediately prescribed thyroxine because she knew I was ttc. Within a month it was down to 1.6. But with the symptoms, I didn't even know about some of them, like too light periods. My Free T4 levels were normal though. It's good that you're going to look over the results, if you do need thyroxine, it's best to start on it sooner than later and it's extremely effective.

@Babytrain89 I also question why every other body part needs to get involved. And it's never pleasant and almost always painful. The only thing that doesn't hurt is when you fart (I mean the actual process of wind coming out 😂 bloating can still hurt), thanks body.

Babytrain89 · 17/02/2019 16:13

@MrsH497 that must be so frustrating! Sorry to hear you're in limbo, like you say you would have thought it would have shown up by now!

@lola871 me too! Time will tell.

@Katbecool 🤣 brilliant. I agree with you. I've said to my other half this cycle and last 'if I'm not pregnant feeling like this is uncalled for!' I feel shattered, Nauseous with sore boobs, bad back and hips....wouldnt mind if my body was brewing a baby! But otherwise it just ain't on!

MrsH497 · 17/02/2019 16:45

@Babytrain89 exactly! Something would surely show a period or a line!! Maybe just a weirdly long cycle which I've never had before or just don't have enough HCG yet. I'll test again in a few days with FMU. I don't feel due on at all, do feel sicky sometimes, indigestion but boobs are fine! Ahhhhh

LokiCat · 17/02/2019 17:14

Hi all, hope you've had a lovely Sunday!

@MrsAW2018 so sorry to hear AF turned up 

@BostonFern I'm with you on symptom spotting.. my boobs felt a bit sore today and I already started questioning and getting my hopes up!! I always tell myself I'm not going to go crazy during TWW but it never actually happens... I've seen so many YouTube labour vlogs/finding out I'm pregnant vlogs that really don't help 🙈 don't know why I do this to myself!

@Babytrain89 Hope the spotting doesn't turn out to be AF! Fingers crossed for you!! 🤞🏽

@MrsH497 sorry you're stuck in limbo. The not knowing is the worst - I hope you get an answer soon!

I'm finally 1dpo and already bored of TWW.. me and DH just got back from a nice lunch out, which kept my mind off it. The weather has been so lovely and sunny today!!

Baby dust and lots of crossed fingers and toes for everyone waiting 🤞🏽❤️

DayDreamer1707 · 17/02/2019 17:24

@MrsH497 I've read that some women can take weeks to show a positive line, so don't give up hope.

I keep getting some cramps and I'm petrified that it's signalling AF is coming 😫😫😫

MrsH497 · 17/02/2019 17:27

Thanks @DayDreamer1707 hope AF doesn't show!!

Oh I didn't know that maybe hope isn't lost. X

Babytrain89 · 17/02/2019 17:50

Thanks everyone. Not sure what's going on...had nothing since but I feel AWFUL like such a bad lower back that moving is painful, feel really sick and literally just want to sleep. So if it is AF I wish she would hurry the hell up. This is different to last month! But I had a spotting last month before the main thing so who bloomin knows!

Lola871 · 17/02/2019 18:51

No sign of AF yet, I picked up a pregnancy test from work though so I'm sure that will induce it 😂

Will test tomorrow if AF doesn't start overnight, which will either give me a BFP or I'll discover that my cycles have got longer again!

@BabyTrain89 are you planning to test or just wait it out?

@DayDreamer1707 when is AF due? Fingers crossed it isn't coming for you!

Babytrain89 · 17/02/2019 19:03

@lola871 If I hadn't had the spot earlier I might have tested...but as I have I won't today. If nothing happens overnight I'll test in the morning! Not sure I could handle seeing a BFN in black and white (or blue and white as the case is with the ones I have 😂)

Sorry all I've been a bit of a moaning myrtle!

DayDreamer1707 · 17/02/2019 19:32

@Lola871 and @Babytrain89 good luck to both you ladies and FX for you testing!! Wishing you both all the luck. AF isn't technically due till weds/fri but pretty I had this last month with the odd crampy feel. No spotting as off yet but we shall see, still plenty of time for that to happen x

Lemonysherbet · 17/02/2019 19:33

Hey all,

Hope you’re having a good weekend. My phone decided to die on me and I’ve lost all my old cycle data 😫 wahh, so
Bloody annoyed!

BostonFern · 18/02/2019 04:55

Morning ladies!

An early start to CD24, I can't sleep and have been awake since 2am 😔 I've managed to do an hour and three quarters work since I gave in and got out of bed at 3am, so at least it's been productive 😂

@Babytrain89 hoping AF hasn't shown up for you overnight. @DayDreamer1707 hoping the back ache was just housework related.

LikeTheFruit · 18/02/2019 05:16

Morning @BostonFern sorry you couldn't sleep.

I'm now 7DPO and having very mild cramp like AF will come on in next few days but not due AF due for 9 days or so. Not sure what to make of it. Could this be sign of implantation?
