Not sure how often OP goes on!!! Eeeek so thought I'd start a new one as running out of space. Hope that's ok....

Congrats @Em1991 so good to see another BFP and still only in the first week of May 🥳

I didn't bother with the GP when I found out I was pregnant as when I called it was a 3week wait for an appt, my GP don't confirm pregnancy they just refer you to your local hospital. I'd suggest researching which hospital you want to use and then self-referring yourself (all the ones I looked at had this option) Then they just sent me a letter confirming midwife appt at about 10 weeks and first scan at 12 weeks 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I also booked in a private scan for 7 weeks xx

@SandyN89 5 children and hoping for a 6th that is bloody impressive!! My phone is a bit crap and can never see faint lines on the pics but I always say you have it in your hand and know if you see a positive - so big congratulations ❤️❤️

Think we may be averaging a BFP every day let's see if we can keep it going, who is testing tomorrow ☺️

Good afternoon girls!
@babyG123 you have balls of steel I could not hold out that long! I think you know anyway!
@vintagemoo @GingerBaby89 how are you feeling girls?
@MrsEmilyB is today OD? 🤞🏻
@Em1991 congrats girl
@SandyN89 screw the haters! You have as many babies as you like! Fingers crossed for you!

@GemmaMay3291 It's my first month temping but from your graph it doesn't look like you've had your ovulation yet. I've got the femometer app and it will calculate from your BBT when it thinks ovulation is and then a cover line will appear. Based on your opks I'm guessing you might ovulate tomorrow which would be in line with your graph, temp doesn't rise until after ovulation x

MrsEmilyB · 07/05/2020 14:30

@coronababy - still no LH peak. Wondering if managed to miss it or have been too hydrated? Natural Cycles thinks it was yesterday, Femometer thinks yesterday or today but no temp spike yet so we'll keep DTD and wait and see! I'm feeling more positive today; the sun is out, I've done some pilates and I know that this month I've done all I can thus far. Egg cycles are 90 days so I won't start seeing true improvement in egg quality until the end of next month and we can't try in June anyway.

@Minster2012 I've added grapefruit juice, l'arginine, evening primrose oil and omega 3 so far, also going to try and drink at least 2L of water I used to be much better with this but last few weeks I go a whole day drinking nothing 😬

@CEW19 the tests should say the sensitivity on the side of the box I think. If AF is still 4 days off maybe wait until Friday FMU and see how you get on. It's really down to when you implant, if you implanted at 6dpo it'll probs show if you implanted today it won't.

@Newbie0818 I understand the situations for a lot of people are not easy and but I'm human and can only try my best to control my surroundings on every precious child or children I have. I feel guilty when other people are struggling. But nice to know that there are other big families and such as yours and that it's okay to have what you want. Thank you for the positive support. I'll try add a better image

Littlebump2018 · 07/05/2020 14:37

Well after everything I thought I'd just give it a go. Holy hell! I'm speechless. Might explain all crying lol!

Just after my parent and I said we'd leave it a few months as it's taking an emotional toll on me when I thought AF was going to arrive in two days

@Franklydear thank you for the positive support. I'll be re-testing on Sunday 13DPO

@Littlebump2018 Congratulations

SandyN89 · 07/05/2020 14:42

@SmileyT Thank you for the positive support last

Littlebump2018 · 07/05/2020 14:42

I didn't mean to put parent I meant to put partner! Oops!!

@Littlebump2018 Another one 😱 congratulations 🥳 !!

BabyG123 · 07/05/2020 14:46

@Littlebump2018 amazing! See I had no symptoms with DS1 it can happen!

@CoronaBaby I do but can you imagine if I'm wrong lol

@SandyN89 who cares what's others think. She says about to give her opinion 🤣
If you have the finances/room/love for 6 then why the hell not! I'm one of 6 and it's the best and so is my husband!

Littlebump2018 · 07/05/2020 14:47

@SandyN89 @RobinRose thank you!! I haven't told my partner yet as he's having a nap. I'm actually in shock as we've tried for a few months and nothing happened

SandyN89 · 07/05/2020 14:47

@CoronaBaby Lol I wish all the hate would stop, we should all be positive for other people as we don't always know the situation of how they got to be pregnant. I'm not going to lie it hasn't been easy trying to have my baby with my husband. Not as rays as the first 4 with ex partner but that's probably due to being so young. And now I'm in my 30s I understand how hard it is for all the women looking for there first BFP. If I had the strength I would be a surrogate but I'm not strong person and parting with a baby that's not yours is also hard. And I'm amazed and grateful we have woman out there who have the strength and courage to do that for other woman. Shout out to surrogate moms out there. And men who give women the opportunity to become mums.

Pika93 · 07/05/2020 14:50

AF showed her face 😔, congrats to everyone who got the BFP and good luck to everyone else for this month ❤️

RobinRose · 07/05/2020 14:51

@Littlebump2018 f**k the nap! Wake him up!!! 😂

CoronaBaby · 07/05/2020 14:53

@Littlebump2018 Congratulations 🥳🥳 I think lines are all well and good but the digital pregnant really hammers it home!
@MrsEmilyB all we can do is our best! Fingers crossed this is your month! Sunshine makes all the difference to your mental health too, nothing like the lift it can give you!
@babyG123 I’ve everything crossed for you! Only 2 more days to wait 😅

CoronaBaby · 07/05/2020 14:57

@Littlebump2018 OMG wake him up!! What great news to be woken up for 😍
@SandyN89 I am from a large (and blended) family and I love all my siblings, now I wouldn’t have as many as my mum did but that’s just personal preference!

CoronaBaby · 07/05/2020 14:57

@Pika93 sorry about AF 😥

BabyG123 · 07/05/2020 15:00

@Littlebump2018 wake him up 🤣

Funnily enough we had this convo yesterday OH has a hard manual job so Saturdays I usually let him sleep in.

I said if I test Saturday morning am I waking you or waiting? He was like ermmmm waiting.

So now I'm testing tomorrow morning 🤣

CoronaBaby · 07/05/2020 15:02

@babyG123 Waiting 😅😅 eh no love. I remember with DD I asked DH if he wanted to be around while I tested and he said no, because if it was negative he would be disappointed 😬 cheers 🙄

Sausage1990 · 07/05/2020 15:05

@runnergirl1 I'm sorry af arrived. There is some clarity in where you are now which is always a bit of a relief in a way too... Although not the desired outcome. Sending a virtual hug.

@newbie0818 haha it is hard to keep track of the days atm. Yes I hope we are in the TWW!! I think the progesterone symptoms are a good sign for us both 🤞🏻we'll be getting BFPs at a similar time.
I'm so crampy today, honestly I just went to the loo to check because I was convinced af had arrived. I have this horrible back ache too and small amounts of ewcm... Which is confusing as i don't know if you should still be getting ewcm after ovulation... may DTD tonight just incase. My opk aren't anywhere near peak but I don't want to risk it lol

@Em1991@Littlebump2018 congratulations both on your BFP!!! I believe how many we've had this month already xxx so amazing!!!

SandyN89 · 07/05/2020 15:05

@CoronaBaby everyone has the preferences of how many they want. I only wanted 3 minimum but 4 was a maximum since I had 3 boys I really wanted a girl and because 4 was a massive shock the shock continued with a girl lol. I never though in my life I would have 6 children but here I am. Lol

Newbie0818 · 07/05/2020 15:07

@Littlebump2018 congratulations! Wake him up, I vote you just put the test on his face 🤣

Wow another one! May is certainly a lucky month!
