Hi, I know there are lots of these threads, but thought I would start a new one for anyone new to mumsnet (like me) and doesn’t know which thread to try and join.

I’m 28 years old and I’m on cycle 6. I’m now 6 DPO.

Please anyone feel free to join; it’s nice to have others to go through it with.

@Pol96 don’t give up hope; plenty of time to still get that BFP this cycle! It’s so difficult not to cave and test early though 😂

@Rhall26 😂 I'm just weak.. Have loads of cheapie ones so will most likely check daily.. Don't really have a lot of symptoms.. Sore nipples and tired. But I could be tired because of not doing a lot due to the lockdown..
Does anyone here track bbt?

OH accidentally picked the wrong test up (one from missed period instead of early response and got a darker line than yesterday 🥰 fingers crossed it sticks! 3 days until AF was/is due so will keep my legs crossed til then. Good luck everyone hope you all have BFPs very soon!!

Congratulations @kim160790. Keeping my fingers crossed this is a lucky thread.

Is anyone else planning on testing in the next couple of days. I'm only 8 dpo but Frers should be arriving tomorrow so I might not be able to resist.

Pol96 · 12/05/2020 17:39

@bumphope2020 me! I'm 9dpo.. But I've been testing with cheapies anyway 😂 I don't think I've got a long lp so might get af tomorrow anyway..

Nat4392 · 12/05/2020 17:45

I don’t plan on testing til at least when AF is due, can be arsed with the disappointment!

@bumphope2020 I’m waiting until AF is late on Tuesday. I’ve looked at so many negative pregnancy tests so I want to be almost sure the next one is positive when I take it. Keep us updated if you take one tomorrow!

Is nausea most of the day, and worse after eating a pms symptom? I'm really worried I'm getting my hope up with this, and will be disappointed...

@BatmanBaby I’ve never had that as a PMS symptom so that could be a positive sign for you!!

I caved and tested this morning - Probably a good thing I waited for FMU. I can see a line there, it's faint, but definitely there! Hopefully others can see it and I'm not going crazy?!

@batmanbaby I think I can see something but not sure if it has any colour? I know these things are really hard to photograph though! How many dpo are you now?

BatmanBaby · 13/05/2020 10:32

They are very hard to photo! It's easier to see in person. Not sure when I ovulated, but my last period was the 13th of April - had my coil out in March, so not entirely sure of a pattern yet, but before the coil it used to be every 30 days.

Will do another test in the morning again, and hopefully the line will be darker fingers crossed

Pol96 · 13/05/2020 18:11

@BatmanBaby I think I can see something starting.. Fingers crossed its more visible tomorrow

OneStepSideways · 13/05/2020 18:14

Cycle 12 here and no luck yet! 35 with a 5 year old conceived on Cycle 2.
Bloods say I’m ovulating and hormones all normal.
So frustrating!

mumoftwobeauts · 13/05/2020 23:09

Hey, hope I can join. I'm only 2dpo but this app keeps me going!

Blondie8 · 13/05/2020 23:16

Cycle 7 ttc no. 2 have an 8 year old that was conceived after 1 month, been on the pill since her birth and currently 7dpo and have bloods done today to check my progesterone levels, get results on Friday... this cycle I have no symptoms but I find some cycles I do and others I dont, thats what makes me worry about my levels... anyone else experience this xx

BatmanBaby · 14/05/2020 08:18

Thanks, looks like it's getting clearer this morning! (Still rubbish at taking a good photo of it!) Should have listed to my fiance and tested at the weekend, I think it'll be nice and dark by then XD Guessing I may have ovulated later in my cycle, or had a longer one than I used to, due to the coil being removed?

bumphope2020 · 14/05/2020 08:47

Congratulations @BatmanBaby.

I caved and tested at 10dpo. BFN and definitely feeling out now. Onwards to cycle 8

whambam89 · 16/05/2020 09:39

@batmanbaby how are you getting on? Hope your lines are getting stronger!

8dpo for me today and officially started symptom spotting haha knew it wouldn't last long
