TTC, need some support who’s with me?

[Claire78564]

So I’m trying to conceive and have been since November. I sadly miscarried in Feb and had my first cycle last month. I’ve just ovulated or so I think...got a positive result on saturday and have been busy dtd quite a bit. I guess I’m 1dpo maybe 2. Fingers crossed this is our month. How is everyone else getting on?

Haha sometimes I think I prod them into being sore. We shall see I’m not holding my breath. I know I should be more positive but can’t help but not being. Guess it’s just because one boob is more painful than the other which is what happened Last cycle.... we shall see!

How’s everyone today....boobs still painful but seems to have subsided! X

I'm good thanks. Got my first dashing smiley on OPK this morning so things seem to be happening, going to jump on the husband later 😊
You having any other symptoms? I guess it's still early for you so maybe too soon to start guessing!

Sorry that was mean to say flashing!

Ooooh exciting! Sounds like you are a day or two from the Lh surge! Yes I agree go jump on him hahaha I have painful pons but that’s about it. We are going to take our minds off things with a trip to the Trafford centre! Let me know how you get on with that positive opk! X

Thank you! Aw that sounds great, have a lovely day. We are off to paint our garden bench! Exciting times 😂 xx

Hello ladies! Ive been at work today, still nothing happening here! I find it hard to see that im just going to randomly get my period now after all this time without one! Fingers crossed for you girls this might be the month! Xx

You never know #beddie11 I’ve had instance where I didn’t think I was going to get my period and then it just turned up! How are you feeling aside from that? When are you due at the docs? Today my boobs are feeling weird lol I’m sure I’ve had this as a pms symptom though. Like my nipples feel as if they are going to go hard (tmi) from the cold but then they don’t....plus they feel heave and slightly tender on the outside. I have to say if I’m gonna get this every 2 weeks before AF I am not going to be impressed. Slight twinge in stomach but I’m sure they is related to my bowels and none of these signs are prob related to possible preg because implantation will prob not have occurred. On another note thebtrafford centre was fun. @rudyroo, hope the bench turned out alright 😊

Thats true i guess it literally could just come any time! Im not back at the doctors now until the middle of may to discuss what happens next. Bloods were all clear so no hormonal imbalance or anything like that, i dont know what they are going to suggest really, they may tell me to leave it until 6months but by the time i go to the doctors again it will have been 5months.
Oooo the boobs might be a good sign, alot of people say its there first symptom dont they, im also always poking at mine lol but they feel normal 😁
Does anyone else ever just get an overwhelming feeling that it might never happen? Im trying to be positive but im a very negative nelly at the minute lol.
Are u going to test at all before AF is due or just wait and see?
Hope your bench painting was succesfull rudy! Xx

It could just appear. I read they can give you tablets to force the period to happen and that should kick start your ovaries into waking up. Don’t lose hope. I get it. I’m constantly feeling that sensation of it never will happen like it’s too good to be true to happen to us. I’ve been thinking what is this is fate but more than likely we are just not feeling so confident in our bodies. It will happen and the more proactive we are then the less time it will take. Really tell the doctor how you feel and make them act quicker than leaving it another month. That way you prob won’t feel as fed up. I seem to always get these pains. I remember the month I caught though they hurt so much I struggled to bounce about in gym classes...not that bad this time however I’m only 5/6 days past ov. Tbh I’m scared to test early incase I get bad news. I know it will hurt hard when AF turns up so will try to wait xx

@claire78654 i just try and imagine myself pregnant and i dont see it.. its very strange. I think I'll feel better after my next appointment! I realise its still early days so i need to just chill out.
Did u have any other early symptoms when you were caught last time? Like, did u know before you tested?xx

Yeah I get that but I think its normal to feel this way. I think you might feel different once AF arrives and your cycles return to a more regular state. When I last caught I just remember painful boobs that’s it really. I have some twingey pains in my uterus right about now thing is I’m not holding out much hope because all of what I feel is mimicking last month ☹️. hugs we will get there. I read somewhere something that was both unsettling yet true to the point where I eventually felt comfort. You feel as if you will never die and can’t imagine how that will happen yet you know it’s an inevitable thing which will occur. I think this is how it will be with pregnancy for us xx

@claire78654 that is quite comforting actually thank you. Its just a waiting game for us all isnt it. I hope u get the news u want this month, fingers crossed AF stays away for you and comes to me! Hehe xx

Haha anytime spoon 😊 she will appear for you! And im hoping this month stays away from me. I had heart burn earlier and I got excited haha but remembered it is most likely from the late night pizza :/ xx

Morning, how is everyone today? Today I feel like I’m losing the hope! Still got diarrhoea (tmi apologies!) which I’m sure is more of a signed geared up to AF...boobs feel rather tender too....I have had like light cramps in my lower abdomen but I’m like 99% this isn’t my month. Definitely struggling to keep optimistic!

@Claire78564 hello, hope you had a nice weekend! I had a pretty busy one, tbh it was nice to take my mind off things. Don't lose hope just yet. You never know, symptoms can be funny as they are rarely consistent (well not for me anyway!) and have read that different pregnancies can have totally different symptoms too. When will you AF be due?
I have had 2 days of flashing smiley OPKs now but will no peak. Will test again tonight and just hoping this means I will actually ovulate!

Hi! Glad the weekend took your mind off things. You can have a flash smiley for a few days. Chances are you will prob ovulate today or tomorrow! It’s a good sign. Yeah it’s hard not to lose hope. I guess it’s because I’m due this Sunday. Just don’t want to be disappointed but I think I will be. Trying not to symptom spot but it’s so hard! X

How are you ladies today, anything happening?
I'm now on day 4 of flashing smileys and really want to see that solid face!

Ahhh maybe test in the afternoon! It must be coming soon. I use the clue app and that tells me I have 5 days before ovulation where I’m ‘fertile’. As for me my boobs don’t hurt much anymore so pretty sure AF is coming this weekend. A friend recently told me she’s preg and her due date is when I would of been due so feeling pretty shit

Well you never know. I'll keep everything crossed for you. 🤞🏼 I know how you feel, it's the worst because you feel like such a horrible person when you feel jealous rather than just being really happy for your friend. One of my best friends is now pregnant with #2 and I'm like 'aargh i just want one'. It's hard but you're not alone and it will happen for you, when Mother Nature decides to get her act together!
Yeah, hopefully I'll get that solid soon, have been BD everyday the last few days so we're not missing any opportunity!

Morning! How is everyone today? Woke up with a sore throat and a bit sniffly....boobs feeling sensitive today. They are painful but not so much, just a bit sensitive. Scared for the weekend incase AF turns up! @rudyroo have you had your smiley face yet? @Beddie11 how’s things with you? Xx

@Claire78564 well I have heard from reading multiple forums that getting a bit of a cold can be a sign...don't want to get your hopes up too much but I think this is a good sign! Plus the sensitive boobs... I'm still the same here. Day 5 of that annoying wee flashing smiley! Starting to get a bit frustrated but going to have to be patient! Felt some twinges yesterday so hoping this is a good sign 🤞🏼

Will you wait and see if AF shows up before you do any tests?

Ah yeah looking back, I had a bit of a sniffle when I last conceived. Now the cold symptoms do seem to have subsided after a cup of tea...don’t want to get hopes up too much because I know i’ll Be upset when it turns out to be different :(. I stupidly tested as 7dpo and it was neg but obviously that’s way too early lol. I’m now 9/10 dpo and will prob wait until Af. If she doesn’t show by Tuesday then I will maybe test. If I were you I would buy the cheapies on amazon. You can get 30 OPKs for like a fiver. They will show you the line getting darker. I always found them to be a bit more of an indication about what’s going on. Keep bding! X

As annoying as it is I think it's a good idea to wait until a day or so after AF so you are not driving yourself mad! I would be the same as you though 😂 yeah I think I'll get the cheapies next time around as these ones are so damn expensive but I think I just liked the 'yes' and 'no' aspect of it so I don't end up over analysing the strips. But I think that's that plan for next month (if nothing happens this time! 🙏🏼) had some ewcm this morning too so I'm feeling positive, hope that feeling lasts! Keep us updated on how things are going for you x
