@Katie1109 how's things this morning?

We can all be those annoying people that conceive between Christmas and New year's that means the mid wives are all super busy in September.

Loving your optimism I'm just feeling a bit down about it all today but I'll perk up X

@Mumofboys17 a week earlier?? How many DPO are you? I have read a lot of articles about IB and as far as I’m concerned there is no rule on how it looks, we’re all different and our bodies act differently x if it is IB I wouldn’t test until 48 hours after it started x
Well I’ve done an IC and I don’t think I can see anything, but I’ll attach photos for your amusement. I’ve got a FRER and saved my FMU but I’m not sure whether to even bother. What do you think ladies? No bleeding yesterday afternoon or overnight but pink again when wiping this morning 🤦‍♀️

Forgot photos

@Katie1109 I appreciate your support and enthusiasm for me lol but sadly I’m certain 🙁 it’s heavy, clotted bleeding and AF cramps are there too. Here’s to next month! 😬👍🏻
Sorry though hun I don’t think I can see anything on that test 🙁 I mean I can see a sniff of a line but, if it were me, I’d count that as a BFN. It’s not strong enough for me to say and I don’t want to give you false hope if I’m not certain myself xxx

@BntTowers I like your thinking of September babies 😉😂😂 Plus I’ve got a wedding to go to abroad in the summer so needed it to be a tad later anyway!! 😂😂

@Mumofboys17 I can’t see anything either. Sorry about your af x looks like we’re all together for the next cycle! I have done a FRER and I don’t think I see anything on that but the control line is all weird, anyone seen anything like that before?!
I think it’s safe to say I’m out x off to cycle number 7 😭

@Katie1109 looks just like my beautiful BFN this morning, sorry hunni x
It is a bit squiggly isn’t it?! How odd! X

@Mumofboys17 yeah it’s like it’s dotted or jagged for whatever reason x never seen it like that before x

@katie1109 sorry can’t see anything x let’s get to the next cycle!

@Mumofboys17 sorry about AF. Mine came a week early last cycle (although lighter) and 3 days early this month. It’s crazy isn’t it? I agree that we do all seem to be matching up with cycles though! Will make for a better TWW (maybe 🤣🤣)

@BntTowers sorry about AF too boo. Cheers to September babies 🍾

@Blondeandbroody fingers crossed for symptoms. And have fun today!

Cd4 for me today. Heading off to stay with parents tomorrow until Monday for some Christmas celebrations with uncles etc. My parents live in a remote part of Scotland so all driving to them. So my day is busy with packing and baking. Least it will stop me from poas until Monday afternoon which should be start of FW according to one app. Pre-Christmas is very busy when TTC 😂😂

@Quiffy I’m CD4 too! My FW window is meant to start next Wednesday x but I normally ovulated CD15 x I’ll have some opks ready from CD8 just in case, god knows what my body is up to these days 😂
Let’s hope Christmas spirited DTD will bring us all luck xx

I told DH that we could have Christmas music playing and he’ll get a mince pie when he ‘delivers’ to make dtd more festive. He called me mental and then asked if he should make a playlist and if it was “those tasty Black Forrest one’s from Aldi”. I was only joking 🤣🤣

@Quiffy hehe that's made me laugh!

@katie1109 sorry to see that disappointing BFN. Are you definitely out now??

@Daisy8008 yep I’m definitely out hun, CD4 for me today.
Ladies out of curiosity, what’s your opk look like today if you can be bothered doing one or did one because you’re POAS addict like me? 😂here’s mine x

@katie1109 ah that sucks :(

I don't actually use an OPK yet. It's my first time TTC and I think adding more tests will stress me out, but saying that I can see how it means you know for sure that you're doing it on the right day. How do you feel about it? I use the Clue app which tells me when I'm ovulating and my periods tend to be pretty regular anyway.

@Daisy8008 I always thought I am ovulating on CD13/14 but I have been using opks for 2 cycles now, this will be a third and I actually ovulate CD15/16 so it does make a difference when you actually know x saying that I am still not pregnant so not sure whether it made a toss of a difference 😂 it doesn’t stress me out to be fair using opks, just gives me reassurance that we’re DTD on the right days so I know we did all we could and the rest is up to Mother Nature lol 😂

@Katie1109 I haven’t used an OPK for a while but will do one when I get home tonight just for you if you like 😉 lol x

@Mumofboys17 thanks 😂 I’m glad there are people here to help me satisfy my curiosity lol x have we got anyone left to test here? Or are we all having some festive baby making? 😂🤦‍♀️

@katie1109 that makes sense. I'll get some strips.

I'm not out just yet... AF due on Saturday but I can feel it coming soooo OH in for some festive fun! Hehe.

@Katie1109 I think @Ellsbells112 is due to test 😊 is she the last one standing? My af Is due by 14th so actually looking forward to getting it out the way and starting a fresh! I’m gonna stock up on some fertility bits too 🤞 it’s meant to take up to year to conceive so I’m just thinking I must be getting close 😂 xxxx

@Sunflower2019 so surely you’re still in the game of your af isn’t due till 14th? x
@Ellsbells112 how are you hun? When are you testing? 🤞🤞

Just got you @katie1109. That’s about my 8th pee today mind, the joys of a tiny bladder. It came up high 17 on fem but I think that’s just out the low range.

We’ve got @Blondeandbroody still in as well. Maybe @Symptomspotter86 too? We need a bfp!

@Quiffy thanks 😂 8th wee?!?! Do you normally wee that much? 😂 I’ve been up since 5:30 and only had wee 3 times and had 2 coffees and a bottle of water in between 😂
