Aaaaaah so happy!! Ordered some posh tests off amazon yesterday and they arrived last night. Never been so scared as waiting for the result this morning in case I was wrong yesterday!

Yes @xoJellyBean test! I’m always too impatient to wait until one day after period is due haha

My temp dipped slightly and af is predicted for 3 days time 🙈

@justlonelystars that's amazing!! Love seeing them on the digital, makes it so real! Congrats again🤗

@xoJellyBean I guess do what you feel you can cope with :) I never bother testing anymore haha

Suki2020 · 13/10/2020 09:02

@justlonelystars congratulations 🎉 keeping fingers crossed for you @xoJellyBean

SarahTTC2020 · 13/10/2020 13:39

@justlonelystars congratulations! Lovely seeing that digital result isn't it!

justlonelystars · 13/10/2020 13:48

@SarahTTC2020 thank you! Yes such a good feeling. I was dreading seeing “not pregnant” on there during the 3 mins wait! So nervous for the next 8 or so weeks now though...keeping my fingers crossed.

xoJellyBean · 13/10/2020 14:45

Decided not test this morning so will maaaybe do one tomorrow if my temp stays up 🤩 my boobs feel so big today lol but aren't sore so I'm hoping this is a good sign! My clue app has predicted my period to start tomorrow 🙈

@justlonelystars do you plan on telling family now?😍

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 13/10/2020 14:48

@xoJellyBean I’m going to wait until 6 weeks to tell my family, it’s my mums bday then so will be a nice surprise for her! My husband isn’t going to tell his family until 12 weeks. My friend is coming over in a sec and idk whether to tell her haha

Tink2019 · 13/10/2020 17:43

I've just had a quick catch up as have been super busy and spied your positive tests @SarahTTC2020 and @justlonelystars - huge congratulations!! I had my 12-week scan at the beginning of last week and waiting for it genuinely felt like months 🙈, but hopefully feels a bit quicker for you both.

@Pol96 that must've been petrifying! My husband can only come to the 20-week scan at the moment and even being at the 12-week scan (and the multiple trips to the EPU I've had to make 😩) on my own felt daunting, so can't imagine how you felt. Glad all is ok though 😊 Our screening results came back yesterday so feel like I might be able to enjoy it all now...maybe!

Hope everyone else is all ok, 🤞🏻 to you @xoJellyBean if you test!

xoJellyBean · 14/10/2020 07:27

Does it look like af is on her way? 🤔 last few cycles have been 30-32 days and today is cd 29 but none of my usual pms symptoms are here

@xoJellyBean I’m not expert on BBT given I gave up on it so quickly but aren’t you meant to get a big decrease just before your period? Mine always comes 14 DPO though, so maybe it’s a bit early yet?

justlonelystars · 14/10/2020 07:58

@Tink2019 thanks! I’ve booked in an early scan at 8 weeks and have my first midwife appointment booked in too when I’ll be 7 weeks 2 days, all going well. It still doesn’t feel real tbh but I’ve joined an excellent Facebook group for June 2021 mums-to-be and got some reading material too. Keep everything crossed for me - I’m so anxious I’m going to lose it!

Pol96 · 14/10/2020 09:28

@Newbie0818 I love being able to call him "he" we're hoping after our private scan on the 24th we'll see his face properly and be able to come up with a name!

@Tink2019 it was horrible.. I do think that even in these times for emergency trips to the hospital you should be allowed to have your partner there. How far along are you now? I don't think I relaxed until I felt movement daily (luckily for me that was from just before 17 weeks) I think that's why I panicked so much at the weekend though!

@justlonelystars the Facebook groups are great aren't they!? I only recently joined mine but it's been so helpful and reassuring.

@xoJellyBean do you have any cheap tests?? Your temp is still relatively high.. And your ovulation day is the same as mine for my bfp chart and I got my bfp on CD 29...🤞 For you!

@justlonelystars I normally do get a big jump down although I realise 11dpo is probably still early.. 🙈

@Pol96 aghhh I do have cheapies in the house but I'm too scared to test 🤣🙈

OP posts:
Pol96 · 14/10/2020 13:37

@xoJellyBean you know me.. I'd be testing 😂 plus even if its negative its still early.. But if its positive then yay!!

xoJellyBean · 14/10/2020 15:07

@Pol96 I was the same, couldn't stop myself from testing at 8dpo 😅 I'm just sick of the disappointment! Will see how things are in the morning. I'm still quite tired and dizzy right now so we will see :) did you get sore boobs around 11dpo?

OP posts:
Tink2019 · 14/10/2020 15:18

@xoJellyBean I got a strong positive on an internet cheapie at 11dpo...but I weirdly felt pregnant! Totally get you not wanting to test though other than the month I knew I only tested once before.

@Pol96 ahh it must be amazing feeling little bubba move 😊 I'm 14 weeks but my placenta is currently anterior so may not feel movement for quite a while. Hope the next scan helps with a name for you!

@justlonelystars everything crossed for you - I was back and forth to EPU because of various things and still have the fear things will go wrong every now and then, but trying to relax a bit more now.

Pol96 · 14/10/2020 15:53

@xoJellyBean I remember us testing super early together 😂 and not really had sore boobs at all.. They've grown quite a bit but they've not been painful.. A bit achy every now and then.. I know that when I got my bfp I didn't get anywhere near as sore boobs as I did before af and they were (and still are) super veiny.. Let us know if you do test.. Really hoping you get your bfp

@Tink2019 ahh mines posterior so felt from really early (had the bubbles sensation a few times from 14 weeks!) I spend most of my day watching/feeling him move 😂 and thanks.. I hope so too! Are you finding out what you're having?

justlonelystars · 14/10/2020 16:04

@xoJellyBean my boobs have been super sore the past few days, could be a good sign. Maybe try one of your cheapies tomorrow morning, I got my very faint positive at 12 DPO!

Newbie0818 · 14/10/2020 16:39

@Pol96 aww lovely x

God I'm desperate for my bfp, I hope you get one @xoJellyBean !

Tink2019 · 14/10/2020 18:13

@Pol96 we're going to keep it a surprise 😊 Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly, bet it'll fly by now x

xoJellyBean · 14/10/2020 21:45

Ah girls the good old cramps are here 😭😭 expecting af any min! On the plus side I got a new job today🥰 and my dream car🤣 so there's always next month x

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 15/10/2020 10:10

Sorry to hear about AF @xoJellyBean but congrats on the new job and car!

Newbie0818 · 15/10/2020 18:37

@xoJellyBean hope af doesn't show! And yay for new stuff!

xoJellyBean · 15/10/2020 18:38

@Newbie0818 @justlonelystars thank you girls, my temp has stayed the same the last couple of days and no af yet! How are you both doing x
