Hey ladies Smile
This is my second month of temping so I'm still not 100% sure with it. Ill attach a picture of my current chart, would you mind having a look at it and maybe post some of yours so I can compare? Maybe charts that have ended with a bfp too 😊 yeasterday at 7dpo I had a dip and then it went back up again this morning, I was wondering if it could be a implantation dip?!

@laurah92 hi! I've attached my chart from this cycle which has ended in a bfp! Keep going with the temps and fingers crossed yours ends in a bfp too!

@Pol96 congratulations on your bfp 🤰 am I right in saying you got your bfp 11 dpo? I am really hoping so, I've got my fingers and toes crossed that my temps stay up and I get my bfp in the next few days. Looking at my chart, could that have been a implantation dip on 7dpo? How long did you chart for? I'm still quite new to this, I love looking at positive charts and comparing x

@laurah92 Yeah I got a squinter then, but as I'm a poas addict I've been testing frequently with different tests and have seen progression so fingers crossed it's a stick bean, will be 6 weeks on thursday! Yours could be an implantation dip but only time will tell! Mine dropped slightly 8dpo and then went higher again and ff said possibly triphasic, so look out for that. I started charting halfway through my last cycle so this was my first proper cycle of tracking, I also love looking at people's charts! Fingers crossed for you! X

laurah92 · 26/05/2020 14:41

@Pol96 bet your over the moon, massive congratulations, have you got any symptoms? Did you get any symptoms in the 2ww? Just relax and enjoy it 🤰I'm not a vip on Ff tho so it may not tell me that info. Hopefully my temps will continue to rise then. I'm exactly the same, I started testing from 7dpo even tho I knew it was to early. I'm 9dpo tomorrow so hopefully if it was a implantation on 7dpo then I might see a faint line, fingers crossed 🤞 x

@laurah92 so happy! Also terrified at every twinge/cramp.. I'm not a vip either, but they had a free trial, have you used yours yet? .. In the TWW it was more a lack of my normal af symptom.. I didn't have sore boobs. I had milky cm throughout the TWW but was unsure whether that was my normal or not and about half way through my nipples got sore. I then started feeling very tired but not able to sleep at night (still have this!) and I've already had to order new bras. Keep me updated with yours! X

laurah92 · 26/05/2020 15:20

@Pol96 yes I've already used mine so it's gone back to basic so not sure if it will tell me much now as everything is very simple. I was thinking about paying £9.99 for 30 days but dunno if it will be a waste?! Might just see if I get a bfp first. Well atleast your not getting morning sickness atm, hopefully that will stay away. I always get get sore boobs and nipples from ovulation and they just get worse as the days go past then as I get closer to af coming they start to stop hurting. From about 6 dpo I have been getting really bad Indigestion and feeling sick, needing to wee more, a horrible metal like taste in my mouth, this weird sensation down below, just below my belly button on either side, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, more mood swings and feeling tired more and like you I'm tired but having difficulty falling asleep, keep thinking about me being pregnant so I don't know, maybe it's a sign, well that's what I'm hoping. Bless you, have you had an appointment yet? You going to get an early scan done? I will keep you updated. I'm sure I'll have an answer in the next few days either way 🤞🤰 x

@laurah92 I guess if it takes a while it can get expensive with the subscriptions.. That's quite a lot of potential symptoms you've got there! I kind of want a little bit of morning sickness.. Which is ridiculous because I'll wish I didn't have it if/when I do get it! I've not had an appointment yet, I'm waiting for my referral to go through, apparently can take a few weeks. At the moment I'm going to try and hold of getting an early scan, but if my dp can't come with me we will get a private one too so he can see it. Good luck! X

laurah92 · 26/05/2020 18:33

@Pol96 yea I know what you mean, it's reassuring when you get all the pregnancy symptoms. What pregnancy test did you use when you tested early? Yea I want to get an early private scan done so I can reassure myself x

@laurah92 I used the femometer hcg test strips, had some that came with my opks. Had a faint line which got darker over about a week. I've also used frers, sainsburys and clear blue digitals (have one left to use some point this week to get 3+)
When do you think you'll test?

@Pol96 look at thoses lines 😍 did you just do a test a day? I started testing from 7dpo lol I can't help myself. I get about half way through the 2 ww and on the days I'm off work I always test. I'll attach my test I took this morning at 8dpo, it looks negative and it wasn't with fmu either. What you think? X

@laurah92 I can't see anything yet on yours, but like you say.. Its very early! I started testing about 7dpo too lol, I did one or sometimes 2 a day of the cheapies 😂 I've done frers every few days from 14dpo. Hopefully giving it a few more days you'll get your bfp! X

@Pol96 you have such a strong line now 😍 how long was you ttc for? X

OP posts:
Pol96 · 26/05/2020 21:25

@laurah92 I have very long irregular cycles and we decided to start ttc halfway through my last cycle, started early enough but didn't catch. So this was our first full cycle tracking using bbt and opks.i was honestly so shocked when I saw the first faint line, I feel extremely lucky and hope its a sticky bean. How long have you been ttc? X

laurah92 · 26/05/2020 21:48

@Pol96 well mines a bit of a long story lol, we decided to start trying at the end of 2018 so I came off my pill and we was trying for about 7-8 months but nothing happened. We then got accepted for a mortgage mid of last year so we both decided to stop trying for a while, while we settle in our new house and know what our in goings and outgoings are and know we could afford it etc so I went back on the pill. January this year we decided to try again so I came back off the pill so this time round, this is our 5 month trying. For the first 2/3 month my cycles where all over the place and wasn't tracking at all so we was probably completely missing peak times so really have only been properly trying for 2 months. Just enjoy your journey and stop worry, you have some lovely strong lines there. Is this your first? X

Pol96 · 26/05/2020 21:53

@laurah92 the clmkng of the pill thing sounds familiar to me too, came of just over 2 years ago and stopped using any protection about a year ago, but like you say, completely missing peaks etc and We also just moved in to our own property and watched income and outgoings! If I wasn't tracking it wouldn't have happened. I don't think I'll stop worrying ong until I have my baby in my arms! Yeah this is my first, do you have any children? I really hope this is your month x

laurah92 · 26/05/2020 22:03

@Pol96 did you find when coming off the pill it really messed around with your cycles and hormones, it took my body like 3/4 months to really settle down. The cycle before this one, I ovulated so late at cd25 and this cycle was cd13. Before this cycle I was also getting more than 1 peak in a cycle, this cycle seems to be my first proper cycle. This will be my first child. Me too I can't wait for that second line to appear, I feel like it's so far away tho. I'm sure once you have had a scan and you see your little peanut 🥜 you won't worry as month, your probably still in shock too x

@laurah92 they've been all over the place. I had a 120ish day cycle last year and a 30 day cycle last year! Recently they have been around the 40 day Mark, but this cycle was a lot better, I started taking pregnacare conception halfway through my last cycle and I think it helped. I ovulated cd18. I'm sure you're right.. Just need to see the baby on that screen! Hopefully in a few days you'll get your bfp too! X

laurah92 · 27/05/2020 06:48

@Pol96 that's what I'm taking to, I got the him and her pack so we both are taking, we started taking them at the beginning of this cycle so maybe like you they have helped. My temp has slightly gone up again today so fingers crossed 🤞 I think until you have seen your baby on the screen and been told everything is ok, it all seems a bit unreal and as it's your first, your don't know what to expect and I think every pregnant woman always worries a little, it's a normal thing. Keep me posted through your journey 😊 x

OP posts:
Pol96 · 27/05/2020 14:03

@laurah92 yeah I got the him and her ones too! Hopefully your temp stays up 🤞 yeah I think everyone worries they won't be able to conceive.. Then once you do you worry until you can see its all okay. I will do, and you! X
