Thank you @Donnat89 to be honest I just feel so much better having posted that because up until now I haven’t really spoken about it with any one (other than my other half) I’m going to try and just wait this time round I think, like you say it feels like a double negative when testing early getting bfn and then still holding out hope anyway! Xx

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 10:22

@Sungirl11 sorry AF is late for you o was 4 days late last month with BFNS and i found it so stressful like you I had never been that late . Then the witch arrived in full force ! I so hope you get answers soon !

It's great we've had 2 BFPS this month it gives me hope I'm only 10DPO today so I aim to test again Sunday .

Xxx

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 10:24

@Thack19 it is a double negative as it doesn't really help , and as @Sungirl11 has pointed out we've had a BFP after almost being a week late and BFNS before that so really of you can do wait I wish I could ! Xx

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 10:33

Yes @Sungirl11 12 was recently told by the gp that on average, women don't get a bfp till they are a week late! So don't give up hope xxx
Nooo I am not for twins, I already have a 2 year old 😂 happened to my neighbour. Had a wee girl, then she fell pregnant with twins. Now she has a 2 year old and 6month old twins! 😳

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 10:34

Don't know where that random 12 in my previous message came from..

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 10:38

@ArjaD yea I can imagine it's hard work my
Cousin has twin girls but they are so cute !

@Sungirl11 GP is right my GP said the same thing they don't actually like you test early as they don't think it's reliable and also always a risk of a CM which can cause more upset . It's a minefield all this stuff

I am only 10DPO so I'm not feeling to disheartened by the BFN . Will test again Sunday using FRER see if any change x

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 10:44

@Donnat89 good attitude xx just imagine if we all got bfps huh.
@dizzy85 and @Nmew what's your due dates approx?

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 10:45

@ArjaD that would be wonderful I can dream ! X

dizzy85 · 17/04/2020 11:01

@Donnat89 fingers crossed for when you test next🤞🏻

@Sungirl11 that's definitely true, it's all new and scary, I'm just gonna try think positive and be grateful for the cramps etc coz at least I'm feeling something. I hope you get your bfp this month when are you testing again?

@Thack19 welcome to the group 👋🏼

@ArjaD I worked mine out to be 17th December, how about yours? How you feeling today? I've woke up with achy crampy legs today 🤷‍♀️

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:15

@dizzy85 I workes mine out around 27th Dec. Christmas baby. Aw achy legs 😔 it will all subside a bit soon I reckon. I'm still a bit crampy and verrrry dizzy atm. Like low blood pressure dizzy. But feeling OK apart from that.

Sungirl11 · 17/04/2020 11:22

@dizzy85 on Monday! As it will be like 8 days late. I took a test today and my hubs told me off hahaha 🤷🏻‍♀️ can't help it!

Runnergirl1 · 17/04/2020 11:23

Hoping I can join this thread, can’t lie I’ve had a good read through and congratulations to those of you with BFPs. Im 33, as is my partner. I’m only on my first month trying but it’s not easy (I can see how people get stressed and slightly go abit mad). Currently on cd14, AF are irregular and always have been so who knows when I’m ovulating. I have a few apps but all say something different even though I’ve put data in since August last year. It’s like a guessing game atm but we are DTD every other day in the hope I catch ovulating date

shelly10111 · 17/04/2020 11:29

2dpo ladies hope your all well you keep me sane TTC xxx

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 11:36

@Runnergirl1 welcome to the group . Here you can be as crazy as you like ... we are all crazy here .

TTC can drive you mental especially during the dreaded TWW , we all know how that feels so please be as crazy as you like

Have you tried using OPKS? as your cycles are irregular might be the best way for you to pin down when you ovulate each month ?

My cycles are 27 days but I was 4 days late last cycle so I'm hoping I'm back to normal this month ! X

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:37

@Runnergirl1 welcome 😀 it's a bit more stressy than we first thought huh. This thread is responsible for me not going entirey loopy, so thanks @NicoleR14 xx
Have you tried the ovulation tests @Runnergirl1? They worked quite well for us.

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:38

Also, I may have mentioned this before but I started off taking Pregnacare vitamins and they lengthened my cycle by 3 days which didn't feel right. So i went back off them, was much better. All my hubby did was vitamin c every day as this is supposed to help with sperm count.

Runnergirl1 · 17/04/2020 11:41

@Donnat89 and @ArjaD thank you very much ladies. I do have them yes but so far all big fat negatives. I only bought cheap ones off the internet so hoping I can rely on them. I think I know when CM is right but worried DTD so much might effect that too. It is def not that easy the more I’ve read the more I feeling like I’m turning mad, who knows how I’ll be once I’ve ovulated and counting down the days to test haha

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:44

@Runnergirl1 aw we always used the cheapies too, worked fine. As soon as the line started to get darker we were on it till two days after it went lighter again x it will happen 😁

NicoleR14 · 17/04/2020 11:46

@ArjaD I did try opks this month and I didn't ovulate what so ever my boobs is still sore today but no cramps they have stopped I feel like I'm wetting myself as well sorry for tmi its so weird I did order frers last night but back tracked and cancelled them I'm not sure what to do!

Here's some reassuring news www.mumsnet.com/pregnancy/coronavirus-pregnancy

Runnergirl1 · 17/04/2020 11:47

@ArjaD. Thank you very much I appreciate that fingers crossed. Congratulations to you x

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:48

@Sungirl11 baby lalalalala babyyyyyy 🤣🤣 aw I'm sooo hopeful for you.

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 11:51

@NicoleR14 you have pregnancy symptoms too, who knows 😀😀😀😀

Jessmary94 · 17/04/2020 11:57

@Sungirl11 looks like you might get your BFP soon 🤞for you!

@Donnat89 I can see the first line for sure! Looks like it has a bit of colour so another 🤞 for a BFP for you

I’m 6dpo, not really had any symptoms, mild cramping and lower stomach ache this morning but has gone now 🤷‍♀️ God knows, just want the weekend to pass then it’s kind of a reasonable time to start caving to my Poas addiction 🙄
