[MisssC3025]

Hey everyone

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.

@StephyRose ahhh there's no denying that! Congratulations! So happy for you!

Guys!!! This happened this morning I'm 8dpo I thought it would be too early but ..... I don't know what to think!

@MisssC3025 congratulations!!!

Better pic!

Aahhh @MisssC3025 that's definitely positive! Congrats, so happy for you!!
What test are you using, is it a sensitive one? All I know is there is no way to get 2 lines unless you are pg!

Can't quite believe it! I'm using boots own pink dye test. Cheap ones. I hope they're reliable? Anyone ever use this. I'll be devastated if they're not reliable as I've heard some cheap ones aren't! Don't know what to think right now!!

@MisssC3025 omg! Wow that's amazing! I'm 8dpo too now I really want to test 😂 that's so great ! I never used boots ones but that is more than faint you can definitely see it congratulations!

@MisssC3025 there's definitely a line there!!

Congratulations xx

@MisssC3025 go buy a Clear blue or just to double check. That's what I did - I had a positive on Sunday night too and went and bought another one which was also positive.

Gave me a bit more peace of mind :)

Thank you guys so much. I think I'm more than 8dpo I don't think my app got my OV correct this time! Surely it wouldn't be that strong at 8dpo??

I have clear blue ones at home but the digital ones that say not preg or 1-2 weeks etc too scared to take those yet! I'm going to buy FRER after work!!!

Feel nervous! 🙁🙁🙁

@MisssC3025 Aw bless you, I have never used Boots own but thats such a strong line, I bet you are more than 8DPO. I would get a clear blue or FRER just to put your mind at rest but I think you can safely say you are pregnant! Hooray! As I said before you can get false negatives but I don't think you can get false positives (with colour in the line anyway!)

@SMiles14 I definitely think I'm more than 8dpo too! I'm buying a FRER this eve then I'll use digital one too!

This is mental!

@Hey1256 are you pg then??? Sorry if you've already said this on here I can't keep up!!

@Rinoa thank you! I have everything crossed for you!! Let me know if you test in the next few days! Xxx

@MisssC3025 yes I think I am!! I did two tests and both defo had lines. Waiting to see the GP :)

I'm was shocked Sunday night, as was hubby. I am very excited though xxx

I’m really happy to hear all your exciting news!!! I think I’m out this month as I have no symptoms and I’m 8dpo. X

@MisssC3025

How amazing for you!! Congratulations! It must be our lucky month! 💗🍀

I spoke to my Sister yesterday who swears by the cheap tests and she used Boots ones when she found out she was expecting too. 😊💗 How wonderful!!

I did a fourth test this morning- again positive. ❤

@Hey1256 congratulations!! Like I said ... must be a lucky month!! 💗🍀

@StephyRose congrats too!

I did a first response test last week 6 days before my period and it was clear negative. I did another test using a cheap one 3 days before missed period and completely negative. So I was out Saturday and had a Prosecco, cocktail and glass of wine )due to the negative tests). I'm a bit worried but figured it wasn't an issue at all.

Got home Sunday first day of period and decided to test as I had a test left in my pack but never expected a positive as I'd already done a couple. Boom positive!

I'm surprisingly relaxed about it, hubby isn't though usually it's the other way round!

Amazing news!! This is a lucky thread! Good luck to everyone else!

Im sure the drink wouldn't do much harm🤞🏼 I had a little drink on weekend too!

I'm relaxed too! Maybe because I'm at work and minds on work mode! DP keeps calling texting. He did a workout this morning and wasn't focused so has pulled a muscle in his neck! He's annoyed as he doesn't finish work til 10 so won't have much time to talk about stuff!

I've managed to take day off Thursday and he's going to try do the same!

I called dr and I have a midwife app on 11/10 bit far away but not a lot I can do 😖😖 anxious wait now!

Good luck with gp @Hey1256

@StephyRose have you got into contact with gp yet?

According to an app I'm due 9/6/2020! How is this happening 😂

@MisssC3025 omg that is definitely a positive!!! Congratulations I'm so so happy for you!!! Yeah could be that you're more dpo than expected cause I'd say that's rather strong for 8 haha! Omg bet you're over the moon!🙌💞

@MisssC3025 I'm so glad for u! Have u got any symptoms?

@MisssC3025 I havent yet, when should I do that? I'm so naive. I'm going to test again tomorrow morning just to be sure 🤣
Shall I call them ASAP?

@Hey1256 amazing how a few days can change things!! ☺️😊

Thanks everyone!

@Rinoa yes I have had symptoms! I felt very different then usual! Extremely bad boob pains around my boobs and under my armpits. Glands have felt very swollen.
Constant urination. A lot during the night.
Gas (tmi 😂) DP hasn't been happy about that.
Today my tummy is rumbling non stop!

@StephyRose I would call. I called and got midwife app for 11/10. Just to at least get your midwife appointment in!

I'm testing again tomorrow morning 😬😬😬 so nervous!

@StephyRose @MisssC3025 so happy for you two!! 👶🏽 👶🏽

This is open to anyone to have an opinion ... iv attached my LH tests pic and during the positives we DTD which on my app screen (attached) was sun/mon .. my app predicted i ovulated on Tues... then friday (4 dpo) had the pinky blood on wiping ( pic attached ...tmi sorry) and then again yesterday (6dpo) iv test today but negative and not due AF until Monday ??
