Good luck @TerribleImagination 🤞🏻🤞🏻🌈🥰

Good luck @TerribleImagination

So, you couldn't write this stuff. My first cv test came back unclear. Supposed to have test in first 5 days of symptoms. Managed to get another yesterday. Second one came back void.

Now too late to have a third, so going to have to continue to self isolate for probable tonsillitis. Hubby says he's not isolating. Hmm

Can I rejoin you guys?
I had to take a step back from the ttc boards for a bit. Was really starting to affect me.
Think last time I posted I talked about my best friend that had tested positive, talked about possibly aborting, and then subsequently miscarrying.
Well last week I then found out my other best friend is 14 weeks pregnant. She waited until then to announce, but hadn’t even told me.
If I’m honest I felt gutted. She’d been through all my bfp’s, my miscarriage etc, literally apart from my oh her and my other bestie were the first people I told.
Just felt a bit gutted that she didn’t feel she could share with me like I did with her, and then to find out when she plasters it all over social media, so I find out along with everyone else.
Just felt really ugh.

BUT, more positive news. I’ve seemed to have long cycles, like 37 days. And I tend to ovulate on cd22. Well I’d read about soy isoflavones and thought sod it, I’m going to try them to see if I can bring ovulation forward by a few days and shorten my cycle.
Well I took them for the first time this cycle, and have had loads of watery cm. so yesterday on cd13 I thought I’d test and see, and low and behold there was a nice line. Not positive but more than I’ve ever had at that point in my cycle.
So this morning I tested again and it was darker still, very close to positive. Tested this afternoon in cd14 and a really good positive!
I have never had a positive so early!!
So excited to see if it does give me a more normal cycle length even if I don’t get my soy bfp!

I haven’t gone through the whole threat yet but did see a couple of bfps so huge congrats!!!

It’s nice to see so many familiar names, although obviously I wish you’d have all moved on by now, but you know what I mean.

Evening :)

@Fizzl @Whiffle77 its a good job we have laid back husbands as we definitely need the balance haha!

@Moominmiss welcome back lovely! Sometimes it all gets too much! That's upsetting that you found out from social media about your friends pregnancy. You would think given the circumstances she would politely and sensitively tell you and not wait for you to find out from Facebook! :(

@TerribleImagination best of luck for tomorrow!!!!

Good luck tomorrow @TerribleImagination !!! Star sending positive vibes xxx

SunnySideUp2020 · 02/05/2020 06:26

Good luck @TerribleImagination 🤞🏽🤞🏽

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 07:51

Tentatively excited here! Only 12DPO, 3 hour wee hold (cos I’ve barely slept!) and Asda test was BFN so HCG obviously not enough for that one... BUT crossing fingers AF doesn’t show her ugly face today, tomorrow or for the next 9 months 🤞🏻

Also I took this pic about an hour after I took the test, so the line actually looks a bit fainter than it did. That faint line came up almost right away. Argh please stick!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🌈

@Ejb86 Sorry to hear about the CV test drama! How are you feeling lovey?

MrsLBear · 02/05/2020 07:52

Omg I knew it congratulations @TerribleImagination!!!!! So happy for you. Been checking this thread constantly this morning.
Wishing you all the best for your sticky bean 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

MrsLBear · 02/05/2020 07:53

I hope you don't mind me asking but how was your cm different this cycle @TerribleImagination

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 07:55

Aww thanks @MrsLBear ❤️ I’ll start to get a bit more excited after I’ve officially missed AF! Due officially tomorrow, but today based on when it showed up last month... So if it stays away by Monday I’ll breathe a little sigh of relief 🤞🏻

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 07:56

@MrsLBear Of course I don’t mind! There was nothing notable on tissues, but it was watery and I could see it in my underwear and also feel it if you know what I mean! I just kept thinking AF had arrived early, but when I checked there was a watery mark in my underwear!

MrsLBear · 02/05/2020 07:59

@TerribleImagination thank you, that's so interesting mines been a bit watery but I refuse to allow myself to think it's anything at all.
Ah so happy for you!!!! Don't think anything in this world beats seeing 2 pink lines 💕💕💕
Have you told your partner?

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 08:04

@MrsLBear Ooh that’s exciting!! How many DPO are you? I know, I’m the same even now! Not letting myself get too excited!

Yep told him when I took the test at like 645am 😂 He’s really happy, but like me, just crossing fingers. We’re both just holding back a bit until we’re at least out of the ‘danger zone’ of the next couple of days!

Minster2012 · 02/05/2020 08:07

That’s so good @Terribleimagination congratulations 🥰🌈🌈🤗awesome news for a Saturday xxx

MrsLBear · 02/05/2020 08:07

I'm 11dpo today. If I had any tests I would poas but I don't which is probably for the best 😂 woken up with what feels like a stinking cold which is weird as I've not been in contact with anyone since Monday.
Ah so lovely!! Will you keep poas?

MrsLBear · 02/05/2020 08:08

Sorry forgot to tag you @TerribleImagination

MilsCookie · 02/05/2020 08:15

Omg YESSSSSS @TerribleImagination congratulations!!!! 🌈💫 another BFP from this group!! I had a really good feeling about it when you said all your symptoms yesterday!!! Wahooooo!!! When's your due date? We'll be within days of each other!! 😍 So happy for you!!

scrumdiddly123 · 02/05/2020 08:29

Great news @TerribleImagination another BFP! Congratulations 🥳

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 08:29

Thank you @Minster2012 🥰

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 08:31

@MrsLBear Oooh 11DPO! When are you going to test??

I think as long as I get that far, I’ll do another test in a week, so it would be a proper missed AF, just to hopefully get a positive on the other ASDA test really!

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 08:33

@MilsCookie Thank yooouuu! 🥰🥰🥰 Crossing everything here cos of it being early days! Haven’t checked my due date yet... I’m a bit scared to, just in case 🙈 We’ll deffo be within days of each other! I reckon it would be around 7th Jan... I did a bit of working out at the start of this cycle, to see if it would squeeze in as a 2020 if we were lucky!

Are you going to have an early scan?

TerribleImagination · 02/05/2020 08:34

Thank you @scrumdiddly123 😍 This thread is turning out well for BFP’s this month! Fingers crossed for many more! ❤️🌈

ELM7 · 02/05/2020 08:41

Congratulations @TerribleImagination that’s lovely to see this morning. xx
