TTC Baby number 1 - Looking for buddies

[Hewie30]

Hi Ladies 🙋,

I'm new to the forum so thought I'd look for some TTC buddies.
I'm 30 and TTC baby number 1, I came off the pill beginning of May and had a withdrawal bleed a few days later then got my first AF 4 weeks after that. Last month I sadly had a chemical it was gutting seeing the faint line go but I guess it wasn't my time!
AF arrived on time Sunday so looks like my cycle ranges from 34-35 days.
I'm currently taking pregnacare and using the Ovia app for ovulation, I'm thinking if I don't concieve by month 6 I'll try ovulation sticks. Onward to month 4 I go 🤣

Aaaww guys a good friend of mine just had her baby this afternoon ❤️❤️❤️ The broodiness level is real!

@katie1109 Is that test upside down or does One Step have the control line on the other side than you'd expect it? Either way looks positive to me, the second line is pink too. I know your FRER was negative, do you have a second One Step to confirm if they're the same?

@Katie1109 Hang on I just realised you said the bit on the right was just excess dye. Hmm I can sort of see something on the left but not sure if that's just because I'm looking for something. I'd take another test.

Control line on the photo is on the right - on the photo it looks like it’s in the middle - and I think on the left I can see a faint line, especially on the inverted photo x the line on the very right is just a due Residue. I’ve got another one step and FRER so I’ll use one step with tomorrow morning FMU x

It was meant to say dye residue x

Yeah definitely retest as it kind of looks like the dye just went everywhere so it's too hard to tell either way!

@Flossy12 Haha! We'll keep you updated when you get back don't you worry 😜😂. We'll give you a recap version!

@gigi318 Haha of course I will 😂😂😂. Funnily enough a patient today at work her newborn had the t-shirt flossy showed us!

@Katie1109 Eeeeek I see it babe!!! Your in the same position as me, faint positive on one step and negative on frer 🤦. Your one step one is definitely bit darker then mine though. Try again with a frer in a few days! Hopefully it'll come up 🤞🤞

@Katie1109 yes I think @Raizelrea is right, the dye is a bit confusing in the pic but the morning's test may help us find out 🤞🏻 exciting! So glad we still have someone testing and still potentially in the game.

@Raizelrea you're up next to test and for us all to live vicariously through you. But not too early though 🤣🤞🏻

@Hewie30 WTF are you kidding me? What are the chances!!! So many spooky connections! I even love the name Floss (for Florence)!

Fml why all of the bold 🤷‍♀️🙈

Thanks everyone x I have done this test late in the afternoon so will try one step again tomorrow morning with FMU x have a good night x

@Gigi318 I think we'll see more tests before then, we'll have @Katie1109 tomorrow, @claireb707 on Friday and potentially @Hewie30 at the weekend - still plenty before me! I'm not testing till at least Saturday 5th! 😊

@Hewie30 yay!! I'll try get WiFi and keep up to the test results 😍 don't go for another week yet so plenty of time! 😁

The nausea is hitting with fully force now ladies 😩😩🤢 I think I might have to try the little and often technique but it's hard at work to keep having little breaks

BFN this morning ladies x I don’t know what’s going on with my body. I can just feel something isn’t right down there. But hey, my fertile window is now open for business, sooooo, let’s get to it x how is everyone this morning? @flossy12 sorry nausea is kicking in badly now! My mum always said that simple savoury crackers were the best to tackle it! x

@Katie1109 aww I'm sorry to hear that hun 😩😩 but fertile week will be fun now surely 🤪

Yeah I'm going to get some crackers from Aldi today if nothing but to snack on when the nausea kicks in as I eat at tea time 6pm and by 12 I'm absolutely Hank Marvin 😫 then feel all sickness, just glad I haven't actually brought anything up yet, doesn't help me trying to hide this all at work for now 😬 naughty peanut

Come on peanut give mummy a break, no need for all this from the beginning, plenty of time to be naughty still! Haha x

@Raizelrea oh my goodness yes! I'd forgotten about these - what is my brain like at the moment!!!

@flossy12 oh chick! This is not good. I'm hoping you can stick a pack of crackers in your pocket to help you?? Eeek!!!

@Katie1109 sorry to see it was a BFN again chick, but like you say it's go-time now and that's so much fun. Time to make the magic happen 💫 so nothing to be too mad at there! I've even been thinking something is up with my body, but 🤷‍♀️

How is everyone today? @claireb707 one day to go chick! Any sign of AF @Hewie30?

I'm ok, gearing up for a BFN tomorrow but at least then I can enjoy my holiday

@claireb707 absolutely chick. You'll have a blast either way as you'll be PG (woohoo) or can enjoy the time (yayyyy) and then it would be fertile window for you (ish) when you're back. Fantastic!!

@flossy12 That's not too bad then!! You should be here for all of our results 😊. But the WiFi will come in handy haha! How are you? You getting any more symptoms?

@gigi318 No sign of AF today although I do have cramps! So could potentially come later but it does usually start when I wake up 🤔. Hopefully it'll stay away but got s feeling it'll come in the next few days. How are you hun

@Gigi318 I might just explain to the nurse on shift so that he doesn't mind me snacking 😅

@Katie1109 god yeah suppose a few weeks sickness is nothing compared to what we will all deal with once we have our babas 😂😅

@flossy12 maybe some ginger biscuits?? Ginger is meant to help loads.

Glad to see we have some tests coming up!
It's hard @Katie1109 when you get these symptoms and weird feelings and then BFN. At least you can get on with this cycle straight away now!

I'm in my FW, my OPK was getting stronger yesterday and had some EWCM this morning so should be in the next couple of days! Doing SMEP again this month so now it's go go go! Come on cycle 4!!

Ladies I think we need a new thread as I think the maximum messages is 1000??

@Hewie30 just the nausea is getting worse, and I can smell EVERYTHING which doesn't help, put something in the bin today and for a whiff and was gagging for ages (tmi sorry) then came up stairs and OH had just been in the bathroom and lone behold I started again 💩🤢🤢 (tmi again 😅)

@Makeafamily19 ah yeah I read that last night that ginger can apparently help, it can't harm to try! Love a ginger biscuit 😆
