@MrsC89 I've just seen that there is a group on baby centre called TFMR Rainbows. It might be worth joining it to see if you can get any helpful info x

MrsC89 · 28/12/2019 17:02

@mrsio ooo thank you, could you PM me a link to it?

mrsio · 28/12/2019 18:02

@MrsC89 I think I've just sent you a PM x

Hi its my first month trying and thought I had ovulated 10 days ago but now not so sure, had loads of symptoms but now probs think there all in my head. I took a pregnancy test and ovulation tests cant really see anything on the pregnancy test but does this ovulation test look positive? I have irregular periods so would love to know if I'm ovulating so I can try. Sorry for all the questions I am a first timer

@mrsio thank you lovely, all set up 😀

MrsC89 · 28/12/2019 19:12

@Liam2018 I think you can get a small surge just before AF, maybe give it a few days then test again if AF hasnt appeared

Hi! I hope it's okay to join - had the coil out last week, worlds most horrendous period ever since but as soon as that's finished we are straight on the baby making train!

Mangaroo · 30/12/2019 08:16

Hello @mumworkstudywine ! Good luck, hope your bfp comes soon. Is this your first time ttc?

mumworkstudywine · 30/12/2019 09:32

Hi @Mangaroo! This will be my second, hubby's first. I have a 7y/o DS from a previous relationship :)

Mangaroo · 30/12/2019 10:15

@mumworkstudywine Exciting! We are also trying for the second. No luck yet but hopefully soon. 🤞

Is it just wishful thinking or can anyone else see something?

@itsbeenalongtime I can see it clearly!!!

itsbeenalongtime · 30/12/2019 16:49

Thanks @Mangaroo Hopefully it'll be a little clearer in a few days 👏🏻

Mangaroo · 30/12/2019 17:09

@itsbeenalongtime How exciting! 🤞🤞🤞

MrsC89 · 30/12/2019 18:57

So little update from me, decided to test this morning again with FMU, couldn't get a FRER, but used a clear blue early detection. Couldn't see anything on it. AF was due today, no sign. So I'm thinking chemical?

mrsio · 30/12/2019 19:37

@itsbeenalongtime I'm pretty sure I can see I line!

mrsio · 30/12/2019 19:38

@MrsC89 I'm so sorry. It could be a chemical. Have you got any more tests to take?

mrsio · 30/12/2019 19:39

@GeminiCancer have you done any more tests?

MrsC89 · 30/12/2019 19:44

@mrsio I have got another clear blue, but hesitant to use it. I should have some FRER arriving tomorrow in the post. Just a waiting game for me right now to see if AF does show!

GeminiCancer · 31/12/2019 02:19

@Mrsio
I started bleeding 2 days ago.
This would have been when my period would have been due.
I'm assuming it was a false positive and the hcg hadn't left my system yet following m/c.

Try again soon xo
How are things with you? X

mrsio · 31/12/2019 09:31

@MrsC89 I know I should tell you to wait a couple of days and see if AF shows. But in reality I would defo be taking one of the tests today if it were me. I'll keep everything crossed for you 🤞🤞🤞

mrsio · 31/12/2019 09:35

@GeminiCancer I'm sorry to hear that. I'll keep everything crossed for this cycle 🤞🤞🤞
I'm not feeling too bad thanks. Just really tired. Waiting for the symptoms to hit any day. Trying to enjoy not having them whilst also not panicking that I don't have any!

MrsC89 · 31/12/2019 09:52

@mrsio thank you. I used the clear blue, still nothing on it, but also no AF. Post hasnt arrived yet, so not sure if the FRER will be here today.

debbs77 · 02/01/2020 10:24

Happy new year everyone!!!

So after getting AF last month which I found surprisingly upsetting, we are onto the next month of trying. I've ovulated over the last few days and we have been having sex twice a day every day, sometimes three times. If it doesn't work then I've no idea what more we can do!

I've always fallen pregnant first time every time with my other children (different relationships from my amazing fiance now), but it took my fiance and his ex wife 5 years to conceive their daughter (however, not known if this was an issue with him, her, or whether she continued to take the pill in private).

The waiting is awful. I don't like wishing my life away each month, or the obsession I feel with testing.

We have given ourselves until May, due to our ages. If it doesn't happen before then then we will stop trying. If we have another miscarriage then we won't try again for another baby.

Hoping you're all doing well xxx
