@Crash1d I have a baby grow tucked away that says "Baby (Surname)" that I was thinking I'd wrap up along with the positive pregnancy test and a you're going to be a dad card. He's about as emotional as a goldfish though so the most I'll get out of him is a smile! As for family - I haven't thought that far yet as I figured I'd hold off for a while before telling them. They live in a different country though so would have to be something I can do via Skype!

@OrangeJ I love the Chelsea bun idea ! It would be so special to capture it on film. Now I want a Chelsea bun.

I found myself watching pregnancy reveal videos yesterday and it was so fun! I had a few emotional happy tears too. So lovely to see people celebrating and excited. I’ve got a couple of baby grows from my husbands football team. I had a positive test just before Christmas so they are still wrapped in Christmas paper. It wasn’t meant to be and if like to re purpose them some how. Maybe if pregnant in the lock down put them in a brown box and in the postbox so it looks like a regular delivery. Then film him opening?

@Juno231awe that sounds adorable! I like the online store my 1st years they do loads of personalised stuff. I’ve gotten them as gifts for other pellet and always great quality . For me a friend owns an embroidery business and sent me a blanket with baby last name when I told her we were trying. It’s adorable. I too have an emotional goldfish ... hahah so this is probably more for me and I hope to catch on video to send to family.
Our family live abroad, so we will struggle to tell them in person. I watched so many YouTube videos for family reveals so cute and lots of nice ideas x

Hi ladies,

Just checking in, those are some lovely ideas for announcing pregnancy to partner. Think I will end up just waving a stick around if it ever happens.

I'm currently two days late for AF but did a CB digital and said not pregnant yesterday so guess I'm just waiting for AF to arrive. Still have sore boobs and noticed they now have prominent veins but no other signs of AF.

Juno231 · 04/04/2020 16:34

@Crash1d thanks for the tip I'll definitely look them up! The embroidered blanket sounds lovely - wish I had a friend like the too!

@Florence13 I'm a firm believer in that it's not over until AF shows so baby dust to you in the mean time!

As for me - my OPK had a really strong peak today! 2-3 days early so thank god I was tracking. I feel positive about this cycle somehow - probably because it's the first one where we've both pin pointed OD and been good with DTD! Fingers crossed this is it.

88claire · 04/04/2020 17:20

Can I join?

TTC #2 - got a positive OPK today so everything crossed for two lines by the end of the month!

Florence13 · 04/04/2020 17:21

@Juno231 thank you keeping my fingers crossed.

@88claire welcome

Juno231 · 04/04/2020 17:35

@88claire welcome and it looks like we can keep each other company during TWW! Which cycle are you on and how long did it take with DC1?

MoonW · 04/04/2020 17:37

@Juno231 that’s fab! Good luck for this cycle, fingers crossed for you!

@Florence13 will keep my fingers crossed for you, and like others have said your not necessarily out until AF shows up 🤞

@88claire welcome! Fab to hear about your positive OPK 🙂

88claire · 04/04/2020 17:40

@Juno231

I'm CD 12 at the moment. I fell pregnant straight away with my first pregnancy (unfortunately ended in miscarriage) and then again with my daughter without a period in between! So I seem to catch quite quickly. But had some strange cycles since so it might be different this time around.

How long have you been trying?!

Michelle38wales · 04/04/2020 19:29

Can anyone help please what do you think ive taken a few cassette ones and been postive xx

myhappystreak · 04/04/2020 20:31

@Florence13 no sign of AF for me today, also having really weird tugging and pulling sort of cramps. Fingers crossed for both of us. I'm going to hold off until next week to test, if AF doesn't show up in the mean time.

OrangeJ · 04/04/2020 21:36

@Crash1d oh I love the embroidered idea. Can you share you friends business? I love little independent businesses.

I was an idiot today. Today a test this morning...thought I could see a line, but it was bfn. Then we decided we may have some drinks tonight so thought better check I’m definitely not pregnant so took another one this afternoon 🤦‍♀️ I think I did it in a subconscious way to get the tests out of my house haha! I’m sure I saw a line but think I would see a line on a blank piece of paper 😂 idiot

Crash1d · 04/04/2020 21:58

@OrangeJ it’s called angel wings embroidery on Facebook. She’s having a little break at the moment but I hope back up and running soon.
And what about the tests?? I’m on tender hooks now. Will you order some
More ?

Bic501 · 04/04/2020 22:00

@Michelle38wales I defo can see a line on the bottom test. Don't think I can see one in the clear blue one. How many dpo are u? 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for u, maybe take another test with FMU tomorrow xx

Juno231 · 04/04/2020 22:10

@88claire I could have sworn I've replied to you already so am a bit worried as to where I posted that reply 😅

I'm on CD12 as well today and had my positive OPK today. TTC #1 and this is cycle 3. Are you planning on testing before AF at all or do you have actual willpower lol 😂

OrangeJ · 04/04/2020 22:34

@crash1d I will look her up 😍 thank you. I’m pretty sure they were -ve. Although I convinced myself there was a line, but I’ve don’t that before...on this cycle even...and I hadn’t even ovulated 🙈 I’m only 8dpo today. Had a big temp spike this morning so thought maybe? But no lol. I only have a digital clear blue which I swore to myself I would only use if I got a definite +ve other test. So that one doesn’t count. I ordered a couple more cheapies which will turn up Tuesday earliest. Shameful!

OrangeJ · 04/04/2020 22:40

@ApplePie86 how are you doing? Think we ovulated same day. X

ApplePie86 · 04/04/2020 23:05

Hey @OrangeJ !

Oh no - you've tested already ShockShock

I think I'm 7DPO although despite peak OPK and definite strong OV pains, my temps aren't telling me too much.

Got really sore boobs just like last cycle but don't seem to have any cramps which is had by this time last cycle. Have had some twinges but nothing like cramps. Think I'm trying to find symptoms though.

Anyway - stop testing! You are way way too early. Take some of my willpower. I'm not testing for at least another week Grin

Karanciri · 04/04/2020 23:23

@ApplePie86 Same boat! I am also 7/8 DPO, i nearly took a test this morning despite it being faar too early! Must not give in! I'm due on the 11th so a long for me to wait!

congrats on the BFP to all who had them so far!

Michelle38wales · 04/04/2020 23:26

I'm due on today xx

ApplePie86 · 04/04/2020 23:28

@Karanciri the longer you wait to test, the longer you can dream of a BPF - that's the way I see it Smile

Looks like there could be an Easter weekend testing bonanza Smile

Florence13 · 05/04/2020 00:40

@myhappystreak aww will keep my fingers crossed for you too!! Working nights the next few days as I work for the NHS so that should keep my occupied. When do you plan on testing? Can't decide whether to test Tuesday or hold off until Thursday when my AF is a whole week late.

Adrianoska · 05/04/2020 00:59

Hey girls, 🌸 I am now 8dpo...omg.. I am symptoms spotting like mad now haha. Obviously far too early. And so worried it didn't work again...

I do have some cramps etc..
But since I started TTC 4 months ago I seem to always have some sort of cramps and pains. Why? I never had them before or didn't notice perhaps... It is almost like my body wants to play tricks on me, 😅

Diorissimo1985 · 05/04/2020 02:17

Hi everyone, please may I join? I’m 4dpo, TTC dc2 ... AF is due around 14th April. Would be great to have people to chat to in the 2ww! Is anyone testing around the same time?
