@LockThatFridge I've got a heart tracker on mine and just tracked back and can't see a noticeable difference yet. Mine is always pretty low as I'm quite fit/active anyway x

Sjp17 · 31/12/2019 15:54

@LockThatFridge yes! During my last pregnancy it gradually increased to a normal resting around 82, then during the week after birth it quickly dropped back down, my normal resting is 61! It's because your hearts working so much harder pumping extra blood around to you and your baby so normal!

HugeAgeGap · 31/12/2019 16:13

@Sjp17 wow yeah that is a noticeably high resting rate! Mine is usually low 40s, will keep an eye if anything actually progresses for me, I like all that interesting body stuff as I do temping as well and like how it all ties together

@HugeAgeGap To give you a bit more hope, have a look at this pic. The top one is the FRER that I did this morning, the bottom two have been done just now with the same urine. The IC is barely noticeable in comparison!

@HugeAgeGap Sorry I uploaded the wrong pic! The top and bottom ones were done just now

HugeAgeGap · 31/12/2019 17:12

@Crazymummyto3 thanks so much for uploading those :-)
How many dpo are you now? When was your ov? I have a feeling I remember you saying you were a couple of days ahead of me? x

AliSxo · 31/12/2019 17:26

Hi girls I think I might be out I'm not feeling confident, I think at 12dpo I should have my BFP and I don't it's not getting any darker and actually had BFN on FRER this morning. I've had all the symptoms but actually they could be AF. I'm not out but I think I need to be realistic that I could be and not set myself up for a world of disappointment. AF due Thursday but my usual cycle pattern is she'll be here tomorrow night so we'll wait and see. I'm so pleased for everyone with their BFP's xxxxx

@HugeAgeGap I got a positive opk on 19th December so I think I'm 11/12 dpo

Crazymummyto3 · 31/12/2019 17:32

@AliSxo I have everything crossed that AF doesn't arrive 🤞🏻

Sjp17 · 31/12/2019 20:02

🤞🏼 she doesn't arrive @AliSxo

AliSxo · 31/12/2019 21:17

Congratulations to all of the BFP’s on here! So happy for you all! X

@AliSxo - I really feel your pain! Had a false result from an IC this morning, Tried another and got a negative, then wasted my last clear blue and got a negative too. Feel like I’m definitely out this month and feel really deflated x

botbird84 · 31/12/2019 22:05

To those that have your BFPs, massive congrats! To those have haven't, get drunk while you can and fingers crossed for next cycle!

@AliSxo try and have a good evening, I'll defo join you on next cycles thread. Big hugs to you all xxx

Sunshinexx95 · 31/12/2019 23:32

Happy new year everyone ❤️
I am having really bad cramping and back ache just like af is about to show her face.. I'm really worried about chemical miscarriages but I really wish it won't happen.
Pray for me please
Xxx

AliSxo · 31/12/2019 23:49

@Sunshinexx95 hey, I'm sure you'll be fine I'm sure it's just early pregnancy symptoms, you implanted at a really good date and got a digital pregnancy, I know it's so hard but try not to worry as it won't help, feet up and just rest xx we're all here xx

And at 11DPO I've started cramping and spotting like AF is coming 😩 don't think I'll bother testing tomorrow, see if AF comes or not and back to CD1 😢

If AF comes earlier for me that will be a shorter cycle than last month, since my periods returning from last bub I've had 45, 33 day cycles, how many dpo does everyone usually get AF? I'm all for it shortening, means we can try again sooner, if we don't have any success after feb cycle we'll break until June to avoid a Christmas/jan baby as my brothers always hated their bdays so close to Xmas then my son is a feb baby, sorry for the rant, two more months of possibilities to achieve the gap we wanted 🙏🏻

AliSxo · 01/01/2020 01:16

@Sjp17 I'm spotting to I'm 13dpo now so think it's my AF... if we both come on then we can be cycle buddies next month? I've had enough of it all now 💗 sending you all the best wishes xx

OP posts:
Sjp17 · 01/01/2020 01:22

@AliSxo feeling much the same! Last month I spotted for 2 days before AF came in full force, gosh it's shitty isn't it! There's still time for 2020 to be out hear ❤️

Wintergal · 01/01/2020 01:27

Baby dust for everyone for 2020

HugeAgeGap · 01/01/2020 11:19

11dpo today and did a FRER with FMU, pic below. No symptoms whatsoever.
Wishing lots of luck to the other girls on the forum, can sympathise with all the bfn and bfp emotions x

Morning everyone! Need some advice please as currently symptom spotting and driving myself insane!

Took ovulation tests this month and got my surge CD12 which is really early as I have a 29-30 day cycle on average.
I kept taking the test to see how the line faded but it darkened again on CD15 (which is more like when I’d expect it).

I’ve been working by the first surge on CD12 meaning I’m currently 13DPO but not due on for another 4-5 days.

I’ve felt different this month - had dull aches in my right ovary, my boobs have been really sore and firm and I’ve been exhausted! Today I’ve woken up to spotting!! Which I never ever get - it’s far too early and I’m usually spot on with when I predict AF to arrive. I never spot in the run up.

Don’t want to get my hopes up as it probably will end up just being AF but I’m clinging on to the possibility that maybe I didn’t actually ovulate until CD15 meaning I’m actually only 10DPO and would explain all the BFNs I’ve been getting on IC’s.
If I get no more spotting, I might go and get a couple of FRER to do tomorrow or Friday . Just driving myself mad! X
