Hey everyoneSmile

Please join me on my journey of TTC baby no 1 (5 months of TTC). It can be a rollercoaster of emotions and I think a positive thread of news, updates and tips is needed!

Feel free to introduce yourselves and explain where you're all at in your journeys. Smile

@Jurassiclover Congratulations!! I'm so happy for you!!
Well I'm now 2 weeks late. I tested on monday and it was bfn. So I'm definitely out as It was with a frer. Just want af to arrive now! 🙄

KCT93 · 17/10/2019 09:29

@Soad23 2 weeks is very late, do you think you ovulated later? It may be worth going to the doctors for a blood test if AF doesn't turn up soon, a pregnancy test doesn't always work for some people. My friend had both her pregnancies confirmed by a blood test as pregnancy tests were not showing a BFP.

Lizziedu49 · 17/10/2019 09:34

Wow that's mad @KCT93 I wonder how unhappy it is for ladies to not show on home tests

KCT93 · 17/10/2019 09:39

@Lizziedu49 I know! She had very low Iron and a few other hiccups so whether that had anything to do with it I don't know!

Lizziedu49 · 17/10/2019 10:00

Oops @KCT93 I meant unusual not unhappy lol

KCT93 · 17/10/2019 10:16

@Lizziedu49 probably quite unusual, I've heard of people getting false negatives but that is usually from testing too early

Lizziedu49 · 17/10/2019 10:19

@KCT93 hopefully that's me, got excited and rested 11 DPO. What day are you? Xx

KCT93 · 17/10/2019 10:24

@Lizziedu49 fingers crossed for you!! I am on CD28 and only just got my peak, so should ovulate today/tomorrow. Last month I got my peak CD23 on a 35 day cycle so looks like I may have a slightly longer cycle this time round, but hopefully resulting in a BFP! xx

Soad23 · 17/10/2019 12:09

@KCT93 I could have ovulated later, but surely I would have had a bfp by now. I have had zero symptoms of either. During the 2ww I had few but they all disappeared before af was due. The only thing that is unusual for me, is i have been getting nose bleeds and my gums have been bleeding whilst brushing my teeth. But that could be anything. I'm gunna wait it out to see if I missed a second period then go to the doctors. It's just frustrating as I want know.

KCT93 · 17/10/2019 12:19

@Soad23 yeah possibly! Nose bleeds and bleeding gums are signs of pregnancy? So don't rule it out just yet! Have everything crossed that AF doesn't appear! But I can imagine how frustrating it is!

KCT93 · 22/10/2019 08:48

How is everyone, any updates? I'm 4 DPO and another dreaded TWW!

toomuchteaandcake · 22/10/2019 09:15

Hi all, 33, ttc#1, cycle 1, 11dpo today, AF was early last cycle so holding out for the full two weeks before thinking about a test. Trying to stay realistic but feeling and noting every twinge!

Carol9ine · 27/10/2019 17:32

Hello Everyone, I've been reading all these old posts and new posts for about 4 months now as Ive been trying ttc..

I am now 4dpo and dtd a day before ovulation 22nd and a day after 24th af due on 6th of november... fingers crossed and good luck to you all xx

Carol9ine · 27/10/2019 17:37

Jurassiclover · 27/10/2019 18:06

Hey guys, I'm back into TTC as I've had a miscarriage unfortunately. Just need another blood test to check my hormones have come back down then I'll be back onto a new cycle. Absolutely gutted but we did manage to conceieve in our first cycle properly trying so hopefully we'll conceieve relatively quick again

Soad23 · 27/10/2019 18:22

@Jurassiclover I'm so sorry to here that! That sucks 😣

Well I have been quiet as I have no idea what is going on with me... I'm now 25 days late still with negative tests. So I'm calling the doctors on Tuesday to get an appointment. Beyond frustrated now!

Jurassiclover · 27/10/2019 19:37

@Soad23 yeah it's shit 😔

Oh wow, hopefully the doctors can help you out and investigate!

KCT93 · 28/10/2019 07:09
