@1990EM 🥳🥳 sounds promising to me. Couldn’t believe when I saw it. OH thought I’d fallen down the loo I was in there so long. Instead he got pounced on exit.

Just hope this is a good sign of things happening. Hooray for CM 😂

Do you know which of the days you ovulated? How are you feeling? xx

[1990EM]

@mrsssk truly one of the worst feelings, hope you're ok❤

[Banbi]

@DBTJ Sorry for your BFN. Mixed emotions comes with the territory I think. Take care of yourself - whatever that needs to look like for you. I'll be thinking of you.

Bleeding was pretty light, but my period normally starts out light and then goes full tilt about 12 hours later so I didn't think anything of it. I don't have cramps in the way I normally would by now if it were AF. I'm going to try and resist testing for a couple of days and see what happens, but I'm symptom spotting like mad. Really grateful to have you lot to share with, as I don't want to put my OH through this rollercoaster - he's pro, but worried about money at the moment so I think is hoping it takes a few months.

@2020wish you are so brave testing so early and sharing it with us all. I think there is a bit of a mark and am keeping everything crossed for you.

And @MichT4 @VP91x - a vote for clipper decaf tea from me

[1990EM]

@MichT4 I think it might have been the Monday but can't be sure. I got a clear BFP the next Friday which would have been 11dpo if it was the first day of ewcm when I ovulated. If i had ovulated on the later date i think it wouldnt have been such a strong positive by then. If that makes sense!! I never get peaks on opks but from reading on here I think it's because I didn't hold for long enough, I also drank like normal when doing opks so urine was prob way too dilute.
I am so hopeful for you this month. Howling at your unsuspecting husband getting pounced on 😂

[MichT4]

@1990EM makes perfect sense, thank you. OPKs have given me a rocky road this month 😂. Never got what I would call a peak but Femometer said I did. I basically agreed to disagree with the app most of the times but I’m the same with holding, drinking etc. Not sure I’m doing it right all the time. Who’d think POAS could be so tricky.
I guess I’ll just wait and see, which is probably best. I’ll assume not much has occurred unless I’m given signs otherwise. Was nice to see the EWCM though, I must say.
😂 I think when I said we needed to DTD today he thought he had some time. No. He didn’t 💦🍆

[1990EM]

@VP91x going to try that tea. LOVE my tea and sadly haven't found a decaf one I like yet.. still, better than nothing. A hug in a mug ☺

[MichT4]

@Banbi will have to try clipper too ☕️

[1990EM]

@MichT4 opks are such a mixed blessing .. on one hand it's nice to have something to do to feel like you are in control, but they are also the most infuriating things ever!!

[DontStandSoClose]

I’ve been lurking for a while but not posting (I posted a thread or so ago when we tried 1st month after an early miscarriage but I don’t think I ovulated that cycle). I try not to get obsessed so don’t tend to post much. I’m 8dpo now I think so quite a while to go before I’ll test, probably a week tomorrow, that’s when my period is due anyway. Nice to see lots of people are getting their bfp on here!

[mrsssk]

Thank you everyone. Feeling much better now and will add the decaf tea recommendations to my ever growing list of TTC products!

[Diorissimo1985]

@2020wish fx for you - I can definitely see something in the pic. I would test tomorrow for sure x

[Diorissimo1985]

Welcome @DontStandSoClose, we’re all here to support you and fx for you that this is your month

[DontStandSoClose]

I think tetley decaf is alright if you like normal tetley, my husband bought me pg tips decaf when I got pregnant a couple of months ago and I found it horrible. I can’t live without my tea! I don’t drink decaf until I’m actually pregnant but even then I allow myself the first brew of the day to be a normal cuppa. I usually end up drinking ginger tea for the first couple of months pregnant anyway (I hate the taste) but it stops me feeling sick.

[2020wish]

Yea going to test tomorrow. Will be interesting if anything to see if these lines trying to form are actually something or nothing at all. But I am feeling pretty bokey today. Hoping it’s pregnancy related and not just am upset tummy

[VP91x]

@2020wish I can see what you mean about the start of a line so fingers crossed for tomorrow!

@DontStandSoClose hey, ah you've got good willpower! I hope you get a positive this month 🥰

@MichT4 second OPK of the day still the same as the one from this morning. Can it be Thursday now?

[MichT4]

@VP91x yep, I’m up for Thursday 😂

My sister has her scan tomorrow. Just when you get up something comes along to knock you down again, so I’m more than happy to skip over Wednesday

[VP91x]

@MichT4 ah that's a shit thing to deal with tomorrow, I hope you won't be too sad ❤️ we will be here to support you through it xx

[MichT4]

@VP91x thank you. I’ll be definitely needing it tomorrow
I am happy for her, obviously, but trying to be graceful and wish her luck with all the excitement is so hard. Just keep thinking we should have had ours by now. And no doubt she’ll send a pic 😭😭

[MichT4]

Might need to go out and stock up on chocolate and gin 😂 xx

[VP91x]

@MichT4 definitely treat yourself to something 🥰 yeah, it's so close to home as well xx

[AR52]

Hi Everyon! Hope you dont mind me jumping on!

I recently had a misscarriage the back end of May, I was very early about 5 weeks.

I really want it to happen again now, I think I'm due to ovulate in the next day or so but not 100% sure as I've not had a period since the miscarriage.

Has anyone got any advice on this?

[HopeForRainbowbaby]

@MichT4 I like the theory too and like to remind of it to DH 😂😅
@Banbi I have also put my pregnancy book away. Out of sight, until it is time to read it again ;)
@mrsssk im sorry that they called you again :( i didn't have that experience. I had calls only to check on me and how I'm doing.
@2020wish I also see some line, like it wants to appear there. I'm excited for your 9dpo testing 😘
@DontStandSoClose welcome! So you can resist testing;) I can't😂

[mrsssk]

Hi @AR52, sorry you’ve found yourself here.
It’s so rubbish even if it is early.

Same thing happened to me, I was 6 + 5 when started miscarrying end of May. No period yet but been tracking ovulation in the hope of getting pregnant ASAP. we’ve been properly trying after the bleeding stopped.
As long as you’re tracking ovulation general consensus seems to be it’s ok to start trying if you feel ready to.
I’ve found things haven’t really settled, been tracking with OPKS which apart from 2 day’s of high, have been firmly low but got plenty of EWCM today and yesterday despite the low readings. So it’s anyone’s guess what is going on! I’ll be very surprised if we manage to catch this cycle but trying nonetheless as some have got lucky, fingers crossed for you x

[DontStandSoClose]

I think not actually having tests in the house helps, you can’t test if you don’t have a test!

8 dpo and I'm going out of my mind waiting 😂 doesn't help that I'm also waiting to get an answer from a job interview too 🙈 constantly symptom spotting and refreshing my emails so to try and combat that I completely rearranged my step son's bedroom-poor wee guy will wonder what's happened 🙈😂
