TTC 1st Baby - Thread 17!

[MrsEG]

Hi everyone! I’ve started a new thread as we are dangerously close to 1000 posts in the last one! I’ll add a link to it now :) Here’s hoping it’s a lucky one!

@DayDreamer1707 I completely understand. Maybe hold off for a few days (I just know I wouldn't be able to after seeing a faint line). Do you think you'll wait to see if AF comes?
OH would be good for support if you do decide to wait a few days!

@DayDreamer1707 12DPO today! Have a FRER saved tomorrow to hopefully have a clear positive, desperately trying not to get too excited before then. I also had an mmc in Jan! Let’s hold hands and do it together in the morning!!

@MrsEG I'm 12DPO as well!! I'm shaking! I've pee'd 4 times already and just did it whilst the OH nipped our. Now I don't know what to do with myself. We had our MMC 7 months ago. Had the due date last week which would mean I was pregnant on that day x

@DayDreamer1707 That’s crazy - I bet you found the day tough too, I’m dreading mine coming up I really am. Tell OH! I showed DH mine as I was just bursting.

Ok, only 8dpo and could be an indent, but I'm seeing something.

@DayDreamer1707 ohh yes defo there 😊

@ValidUser I can see something there too... only just!

I think I can see something @validuser! Proper squinter though. Do you think you can hold out a few more days? (Full disclosure don’t think I could and would be testing hourly until something more conclusive popped up... )

@Lottiepink DH sees it too and normally sees nothing when I think I do! 😂 It's not lily white like an indent.

Normally I end up testing from about 5dpo, so holding off til 8 has been greatly restrained!

A few more angles!

I feel unusually tired. But again, may be imagining it all. 😂

@Dollywilde I'll try to hold out! Ava bracelet will keep me in the loop about my temperature anyway!

@Bettythecat - in a similar situation to you. I went away the morning that fertile week started. We DTD that morning but think it was probably to early. I've been in Valencia without my partner and he's away in New York and not back until Sunday. I'm 1 dpo now and don't think this will be a good month. But, we're off to Mauritius on Tuesday, and I think I'll enjoy it more as I'm less likely to be symptom spotting for the 2ww. Can you plan any nights out or date days that will help the 2ww pass quickly?

@ELW85 - what a great morning!!!

@Lottiepink my lute phase seems to be between 12-14 days. No idea what's changing it.

Hi @DayDreamer1707 that IC line is a good sign. Second the comments about a Frer

@ValidUser my phone screen is so cracked so can't tell, but fingers crossed!!

@ValidUser I can see it in the first picture, keeping everything crossed for you!!!! Xx

Omg @DayDreamer1707 just seen yours too!!! Congrats!! Xx

Thanks @cupcakesandglitter!

I've posted a few things I thought were squintiest here before and nobody ever saw them!

@ValidUser I see it in the first a hint of pink, not on the other ones tho! Fingers crossed for you 😊

@ValidUser I can just about see a line in the first photo, which is great for 8dpo! Got my fingers and toes crossed for you!! X

@ValidUser I’m rubbish with squinters but if you’re only 8DPO and you’re seeing a line then it’s likely you’re only just implanting - hard as it is, try and test again in 48 hours to let the HCG build up and I’ll keep everything crossed for you!!

Been feeling more tired since yesterday, no sign of illness but it could just be hayfever, i think i m about 10dpo so too soon to be a pregnancy symptom right?

@1990shopefulftm could be! 10-11 DPO is when implantation happens. So fingers crossed :)

Hey! Me and my partner decided to start trying last month so very early days. He was using condoms before so I went off the implant a while ago so regular periods although not 100% sure of my cycle length but between 28-30 days. I had my period on the 19th April so due next week at some point. I am not sure when I ovulated but looking online between the 29th April-4th May. Is there any point me doing a pregnancy test? First time trying makes me keen to know!! Advice welcome

@meenabeena Thank you. Planning to test on wednesday morning which should hopefully give me a reasonably accurate result, i know we'd be very lucky to get pregnant in the first month so trying not to test too much/too early.

@Lottiepink my average luteal phase length is 14 - but and it's a big but, I spot for about 7 days before my period! Which is not normal no matter how much my gp says it's fine. I'm thinking of trying progesterone cream or gel or something in my luteal phase tbh

@DayDreamer1707 I see that! Good luck for your next test and good luck to @ValidUser

@Beck2277 you can't pin down when u ovulated so just be prepared if you do test it could well be too early n cause heartache n a waste of money or get a false negative. Maybe hold out and wait til af is late

Please can I have your thoughts? Ps sorry for the tmi

So I was due on Wednesday and had dark brown/cm mix of spotting.

Thursday, same going to light (filling half a reg tampon)

Friday, was light/bit stronger but a regular tampon wasn't full.

This morn : dark brown spotting, as if it's finished.

According to clue/ff I'm not due to finish until Sunday/Monday.

I'm lucky that I don't get them heavy and its usually 1 day spot with 4 days fully on. Maybe an odd spot day after.

I was going along as normal but just surprised it's pretty much ended. Then I read some other posts saying the person was on for 2/3 days and turns out they were PG, which then obviously got me thinking.

I'm pretty sure I'm not and it's just AF playing around.

Thoughts?

@Lottiepink normally my LP is only 10 days, but with progesterone it's 14. I can't believe how much it affects it.

@DayDreamer1707 congratulations!

@ValidUser give it proper amount of dpo! Frer company owners are buying yachts and private islands off how much money you spent on buying their tests!

@KatBeCool 😂
