Hey girls... thought I'd make a new post I'm struggling to find new ones 😂 I'm 28 nearly 29 and my other half is also the same age! I'm currently on my period and this is the month we have decided to start trying! I'm so excited but also do not want to get my Hope's up as I know it can be a very long journey to get that BFP! Anyone else trying this month? I'm looking to get ovulation sticks to increase my chances xxx

@primrose2020 I was feeling like that yesterday. I even took a tampon to work with me just in case and then I got the positive test! Still feel very crampy and still kinda convinced my period is going to show up! Apparently it's a sign of early days though!

primrose2020 · 25/02/2020 12:11

@Elley2912 that's reassuring thank you!!

How are you feeling? Has it sunk in? So excited for all you BFPs xxx

primrose2020 · 25/02/2020 12:42

AF has arrived, about 30 seconds after a BFN, so annoyed about the waste of an FRER 😂 AF is a bit early, put it into my apps and now my cycles are showing as shorter and now I have 2 fertile weeks in March... I'll take it!
On to the next cycle xx

@Elley2912 congratulations again..this is amazing news. Sorry to all that has had the horrible witch come..

Ah @abby25 I’m really sorry to hear that. Had you followed smep to a t this month?

Jazzy1990 · 25/02/2020 19:58

@Elley2912 congrats ! Must feel amazing? How long were you try for ?

@abby25 my periods are always that light :( it’s not implantation bleeding I’m afraid.

ArthurandJessie · 25/02/2020 20:03

Hi Abbey25

Don't loose hope I was sure period was coming and didn't test positive with early response until day period was due now 25 + 3 pregnant with twins 😅 if it doesnt work out this month we used the shettles method and worked first try ! ( x2 😅) have a google ! Lots of success stories

abby25 · 25/02/2020 20:14

@arthurandjessie awww bless! I would love to have twins but I'm a twin myself so doubt that would happen lol it's weird I was having loads of cramping on 11dpo so I suppose I got my Hope's up thinking it was implantation 😫 il keep you all updated if anything changes .. if not roll on next month legs are going in the air 🤣🤣 xxx

I'm right there with you @abby25
My pains have gone again now but I'm more irritable than usual so I know she's on her way..probably when I go back to work tomorrow after my annual leave lol

abby25 · 25/02/2020 21:27

abby25 · 27/02/2020 07:43

OP posts:
Elley2912 · 27/02/2020 13:12

@abby25 aww sorry to hear about AF! At least it's the start of a new cycle now! No waiting around now for another while! Fingers crossed for this to be your month!

abby25 · 27/02/2020 14:29

Still no af for me..bfn on all tests..know she's coming though because I can feel it. Probably ovulated later than what I thought so maybe the opk was wrong. God knows
