@Libbyvmama @LT103 @MrsF18

I made us a new thread to continue with the crazy TTC weirdness discussion.

AND @Sdoo4 Congrats again on your BFP!

How are you all doing?

Anyone else welcome to join ofc!

@abbfabb amazon prime is life 🙌🏽😂

Ah sorry @Emmie12345 you're prepared for your next cycle though xx

12dpo, I’m getting excited!!!

Been nothing but BFN so far this cycle.

How is everyone today? 7dpo and feeling the need to poas 😂😂😂 It’s a long wait in the 2ww!!!

@Sexnotgender I see it! Looking good.

@LT103 not long before you can test!

I'm 8dpo today and I did test on an IC with second morning urine.. and there's a V V faint line!!!! I can't even pick it up on a photo 😂

@Mrschips07 it’s still a line!!! Fingers crossed. I’ve held off so far. Maybe I’ll give in and test tomorrow hahaha

@LT103 2nd day of period here for me! taking this one rather well all things considered, might feel differently in a few days just looking forward to trying new things now on cycle 12!🤗

hold off on the poas! not long now and you’ll get a much clearer picture😁 are you having any symptoms?

@Mrschips07 & @Sexnotgender how exciting for you both!!😀 got my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks @abbfabb I’m so excited, hope the little bean sticks.

Only fly in the ointment is my calculated due date is the day after my brothers wedding in Ireland 🙁

@abbfabb sounds like you have a plan!! Good to be confident!

I had loads of progesterone symptoms this month. Really painful nipples from 2 dpo and general juat sore boobs over next few days. Felt really sick yesterday. Today, boobs are a still sore but other symptoms seem to have settled.
If I am pregnant, I doubt I’ve even implanted yet so prob too soon for any real signs I guess. Doesn’t stop me googling every little thing!!

Argh damn @Emmie12345 sorry to hear that. Maybe next time, sounds like you are prepared!

@Sexnotgender how exciting for you. 🤞

@LT103 when I woke up this morning I instantly felt better than I have for ages and my boobs don't ache as much, so I felt disappointed. I only wish I'd tested with FMU today and got a clearer line. It's just a shadow for now. I went out with DH today and decided to drink 1 beer with my lunch but I couldn't even finish it, it made me feel so sick, so thinking that's a good sign. Haven't said anything to DH yet.

Oh and if it's not TMI, has anyone been keeping check on cm? I have loads 🙈🤷‍♀️ it's like milky... 😬

@LT103 no nothing will stop all the googling will it😂 so far things sound good in terms of what you have experienced though, so hard not to let yourself get consumed by it all!

my plan next cycle is to dtd everyday from like cd10-16 with a hope that i definitely catch that bloody ovulation window and also going to buy preseed as the reviews are amazing so cant hurt to try🤔

@Mrschips07 oooh possible food aversion for not being able to finish a pint i wonder😱 i check cm all the time, after ovulation they say you dry up on the lead up to your period which in my case is true so milky cm sounds quite promising to me!

@abbfabb that's what I thought! I can't say I've noticed this after I've ovulated before. I couldn't drink alcohol at all last time I was pregnant, it would make me throw up if I had one glass of prosecco! So... That's promising.

Sounds like you are all set for next cycle, really wishing you all the best of luck.

@Mrschips07 I think that’s a good sign. I’ve still had lots of cm but I think I did last cycle at this stage too?!? Hoping for some bfp this weekend!!!!!

Hello! Can I join?
I’m 10dpo and due af 5th aug.
I haven’t tested yet, waiting on amazon delivering my frers though.

I’m feeling really queasy and sick and I have a strange metallic taste in my mouth that’s lasted all day...which is very unusual for me.
Dh works away from home mon till Friday. He’s back fri eve so waiting to test then.
I always feel my ovulation as I get awful pains and my libido is very high during that time. Think we managed to dtd twice the day before ovulation happened so fingers crossed.

@Natureotter Welcome!

All sounds pretty good! So you'll be 12dpo on Fri? Good chance of seeing something hopefully! Your cycle is similar to mine, except I have to wait til 10th Aug for AF which is coincidentally the same day I start my new job

@LT103 Something made me POAS again! It looks exactly like the one from this morning - barely anything, but there!

@Mrschips07 I’ve held off so far 😬 8dpo tomorrow. I might try 🙈. Spent 10 mins looking in the mirror earlier convincing myself my boobs were bigger and more veiny hahaha
Had d21 bloods taken today so get them back Friday or Monday. Mai ly to check progesterone to rule that out as a cause of my spotting. He’s done oestrogen fsh and LH which is sure is wrong time but guess there’s no harm

@Mrschips07 do you think it’s a faint positive?? 🤞🤞🤞👍

@LT103 I've been doing the same! Tbf I think they do look veiny, but then again... I'm not sure I ever look at them so much or think about the veins in them usually so...

I don't want to say it is, as its so so barely there. I've tried to take photos and they just look white. I'm going to try again tomorrow with FMU and you never know. Trying not to get ahead of myself tho.

Please let me know if you do test tomorrow! Saving that graphic you posted to share on other threads, because I think a lot of people lose hope wayyy too early.

@Mrschips07 yeah definitely. I’m happy to test early because I fully expect it to be negative. It just makes it more exciting for me haha. I don’t get myself too down about a bfn especially an early one. This might change if I end up 6 months down the line with no pregnancy I guess but I’m still finding it fun just now

@LT103 Thats a good attitude to have, like you say - its early days. Tbh this has all really taken my mind off the pandemic and given me something to focus on, so I'm thankful even if I don't get a BFP anytime soon.

Sorry I've been mia, work has been nonstop.
What awesome news @Sexnotgender and @Mrschips07 to catch up with, I have everything crossed those lines keep getting stronger!!

I'm pretty sure I'm out this cycle, af due on Saturday, been feeling crampy on and off since Monday. BFN every day, had a BFP on 9dpo with both dd's.

Can't remember who asked, but I used preseed when we conceived dd1. It was our first cycle of ttc. That was almost 7 years ago, I remember it feeling really wet and messy... But it worked I guess 😂💦.

@3andout No worries! I don't think you can write yourself off yet, you never know! :)

Don’t count yourself out just yet @3andout
I got a positive today but really faint.

@Mrschips07 thanks.

How are you feeling, will you test again tomorrow or wait a couple of days?
