@MinnieMouse4 I can see a line too. I'd definitely test again using a different brand maybe in a couple of days. Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼

@Firevie I don't think you are being selfish. It would be hard enough facing that when you can escape and run home, but travelling all that way to be uncomfy and sad - not worth it. Stick to what feels right for you, I'm sure OH will understand.

@Bl0ndi3 happy 30th for yesterday. Did you have a lovely day?

@DBTJ that's so great that everything looked good on your scan. I can't believe how fast time is going, although I'm sure it doesn't feel it to you! Seems to have come round so fast.

@VP91x fingers crossed these non symptom spotting items are all symptoms to spot 🤪. Really hope this cycle is the one

I got my referral through ladies, unbelievably for the 30th September. Couldn't believe it but looking forward to getting some help and guidance xx

@Lollol86 oh no, hopefully omce you're in second tri it will ease up a bit and you won't feel so rotten. Are the girls enjoying being back?

Yeah not bad!! Wishing the rest of this wait away haha xx

@VP91x aw thank you 🥰🥰 oooh exciting there's a few of us around similar time so I don't feel totally alone with the symptom spotting obsession haha! When do you plan on testing? X

I did check my CM and there's quite a lot and it's kinda thin but with little globs or almost EWCM type stuff lol sorry

@MichT4 thank you honey I did yes we went to the beach with the dogs and then I went out for dinner and cocktails and definitely didn't hold back hahaha

Hi ladies I was in the thread back in June, nice to see lots of BFP, sooo sorry for all the losses, I have lots of reading to do to get up to date. I completely gave up trying around the time I would have been due after my missed misscarrige, no ovulation tests or tracking and haven't even been TTC, due AF in a few days but have had very tender breasts- just did a test and got a faint positive!!! Eeek, im 41 so not out of the woods yet cos of age and previous history but 🤞 for sticky bean x

@Dizzy201 wow congratulations! Just shows how a bit of relaxation can help. So happy for you! Any other symptoms?

@Bl0ndi3 sounds fabulous. Can't wait to take Loki to the beach. Sounds like you had a wonderful celebration xx

@VP91x they didn’t say when I will get the results, not too sure how long to expect really. I have a good feeling for you for this month, have everything crossed for you!

@DBTJ that’s great your scan went well. Hope you can start to enjoy it.

@Firevie you are not being selfish, you need to think of yourself in situations like this. Especially as you wouldn’t be able to just pop home if it all got too much.

@VP91x thank you for that information. It’s good to know. I have 2 CBDs and 3 Tesco cheapies (1 dip and one pee on a stick). I think I will try the cheapies for a few days and finish off with a CBD at the weekend. I have my fingers crossed for you this month too and am sending lots of baby dust your way for a BFP soon! Xx

@MichT4 I’m so glad there are others here who see the line too. The CB test I did also had a v faint line but not enough really to be able to see on a photo. I will attach the best one I have but I’m not expecting anyone to be able to see it - it could just be my eyes willing it to be there lol! I showed OH both tests and he can’t see any lines on either and when I tried to point them out he made a comment that he can’t see anything that’s not there and it really hit a nerve with me. Xx

@Dizzy201 that is fantastic news! Congratulations 🥳 xx

@MinnieMouse4 I can see faint lines on all the pics 🤞🏼🤞🏼 xx

@MichT4 Great news about the referral!! I bet you feel a bit of a weight has been lifted xx

@VP91x Really hope this cycle is the one for you xx

@Dizzy201 That's amazing!! Congratulations! Xxx

Thanks 😊
@MichT4 just a few huuuge spots and a gippy with nasty smells 🤣🙈

@MinnieMouse4 wow exciting 👏

Excuse me if im quiet while I try to catch up on the thread 🤣

Hi everyone 👋🏻 Sorry been busy with work then jobs at home and falling asleep early lol. I’m awake now cause I napped on sofa from early 😂😅 don’t think there’s been a night I haven’t fallen asleep on sofa. Thanks for asking @VP91x I’m ok, just worrying about school and covid tho, not sure if I already said but waiting to hear about a girl in our class who’s relative has tested positive. I’m wearing my visor and doing lots of hygienic practices. Not seen the girl since last weds so a week tomorrow. I’m 8 weeks tomorrow so that’s a milestone as lost the last one at 8 weeks last time.

@MinnieMouse4 I see the lines on both tests too 🤞🏻🤞🏻 For progression.

@Dizzy201 🤞🏻🤞🏻 For progression on your lines too, congratulations 🥳

@DBTJ great to hear baby and you are well 💖

@Firevie don’t think you are being selfish at all ❤️

@Bl0ndi3 welcome to the 30s club and hope you had a great time celebrating xx

Hope everyone else is well. Xxx

Morning all

@Firevie I agree that you need to do what feels right for you, it’s not selfish, it’s self preservation. Hope you husband is ok to go on his own x

@Dizzy201 exciting news, keeping everything crossed for you.

@DBTJ glad everything is going well, hope you can relax and start enjoying it now x

@MinnieMouse4 I feel like I can see a faint line so really hope it progresses, how many days late are you now?

I’m all over the place at the moment, went to bed early with a headache and now been woken up with weird pulling pain in right side at the back. Not intense but enough to wake me up. Day 37 and still no AF.

@VP91x**@Lollol86@Northernsoul90@MichT4@Wishingfornumber2@Sully84@Pugprincess thanks all for your understanding! We haven’t talked about it since so I hope OH doesn’t bring it up anymore.@familybythesea
@VP91x all sounds promising. Fingers crossed for you this month
@Pugprincess what a milestone. Here’s to a happy 9 months!!
@michT4 yay to the referral! 30 sept not long to go
Werirdly enough my temps are still on the high😒 af predicted Saturday on premom and Monday on FF. I just want to have af now but I’m puzzled by my high temps but not pg as we didn’t have sex in FW or anywhere near my ovulation date. We dtd 4 days after ovulation lol 🤣🤣🤣

@Bl0ndi3 are you temping? I'm probably going to test on Friday at 9dpo. I'm an early tester not going to pretend to try and wait 😂.

@Dizzy201 congrats! I hope those lines keep getting stronger for you, 💕

@MinnieMouse4 I hope you get a good line or a positive on the CBD. Would be fab!! Thank you xx

@Pugprincess have you had a CV test? Did she get tested? Hopefully all is okay, I'm sure they are being safe. Are you able to do anything from home if it comes to it? Xx

@Sully84 I know it isn't any comfort whilst you're waiting for AF, but alot of us on here have experienced irregular cycles post MC. It might be things settling if you are still getting negatives.

@Firevie thank you hun, your temps should be high anyway it's the progesterone that keeps them high which is why if you are pregnant they stay high past your normal luteal phase. Once the progesterone drops to prepare for AF your temps will drop xx

@VP91x yay fingers crossed for Friday! And thanks for the explanation re high temps. Guess they will drop in couple of days as not long to go until predicted af - finally, I just want to move on to my next cycle now. Xx

@Firevie yes, I can imagine. Although nice to have a stress free TWW. My temps have dropped a bit today, so if they don't go back up then maybe I won't need to test xx

@Northernsoul90 oooops soooo sorry! It was meant for @familybythesea!!! So sorry! Trying to do too many things at once. 😘

@Northernsoul90

I’m doing ok thanks for asking. 😃. Just getting to grips with going back to work in a school full time and have a little one so it’s a massive juggling act. All this with FW so found it hard DTD when so frazzled. Not sure it was enough this time but let’s see. This morning Natural cycles confirmed ovulation on Sunday so I’m on 3PO. Just starting out on the dreaded TWW. Positives include no more POAS which I’m thrilled about and I’d like to try and switch off a little from it. It’s all consuming.

Due on my period 21st Sep. How about you?

Anyone due AF around the same time?

@VP91x everything crossed for you! 😁

@VP91x she should be having a test. Not been told anything more yet though 😩 not great really. I want school to be chasing that family up asking etc. I’ve not had a test yet. I don’t think I will unless this comes back positive with the girl or I develop symptoms. I think the chances are low but I just think if this is how it’s starting it’s not going to be a fun ride. Don’t think I can work from home until 28 weeks as apparently that’s when a temperature can be dangerous for baby. I STILL haven’t had my risk assessment I’ve been asking for. Another lady had hers. So many schools have announced cases and sent whole year groups home etc where I am x

@RichmondLady1981 woke up this morning to af - I suspected it after the bfn on sat, and I had some slight spotting yesterday before bed which was not goong to be in at 15dpo lol. On to the next cycle! I have decided to get some test done though just to be sure - as I’m 36 and onto my 9th cycle post mc. I also had a word with my husband aboht energy drinks, I might be being superstitious, but that is the only thing different to last time. He had been off them for a month when we fell pg last time, but he has since gone back to drinking them, and I swear they can’t be helpful with all those chemicals in them!

@VP91x I think that sounds like what is offered with the clonic I found - I’ll attach a pic! Am
i eight in thinking the extra bits nhs offer would be a blood test for hormones? Then test for oh? I’m back to cd1 today - boooo!

4 BFNs this morning, including CBD. Expected AF is 7 days late today. I think it’s safe to rule out a BFP this time around or it would have shown by now. I have one CB (not digital) left I will take on Saturday if AF hasn’t arrived by then. Xx

@Bellabubble are they all seperate scans or what's included in the one scan? Yes NHS would offer a pelvic scan like the one you can book. Day 3/21 bloods, maybe AMH levels and probably Sperm analysis from what I've read. Xx

@Pugprincess oh that's ridiculous about your RA. Is there someone you can talk to in HR? Especially as other lady has had hers done. Where do you live? Yes, probably low risk but you want to feel safe. X

@MinnieMouse4 sorry it was negative again, hopefully AF arrives soon xx

@Pugprincess thanks honey glad to hear you are doing well 💗💗

@VP91x no I don't temp I tried once but with OH not knowing what I do for TTC it's kinda difficult to do it discreetly haha also I'm rubbish at it and lately I've been waking up every night without fail at around 3:30am for a wee so I'd not be able to atm.

do you? If so, do you wait for an implantation dip etc before testing?

I got my BFP last time at 11dpo I didn't test any earlier and I actually thought I was 12dpo but obviously can't count haha so maybe I'll test on Saturday at the earliest. I also had some very mild symptoms from 9dpo last time, I'm 9dpo tomorrow so I will be giving my boobs a good grope to check for tenderness 😂😂

@MinnieMouse4 sorry about the BFN and being late, I know how frustrating it is so sending you hugs x

@Pugprincess amazing you're at 8 weeks! Definitely push the school for yo ur risk assessment can't believe they've not done one yet!

@Bl0ndi3 fingers crossed you get a bfp!

@MinnieMouse4 sorry it's not a bfp and AF is still not here. Hope it gets clearer either way for you soon x

No real update from me - onto CD6 now and due to shorter cycle last time, started my CB digi today and got the blank ⭕️ out of the way today. Lots of watery CM so hoping this FW starts ASAP x

@MrsK21 @Sully84 @VP91x thanks for your support ladies. So 2/4 were definite BFNs (including CBD) but the other 2 Tesco cheapies showed the same result as yesterday with the very faint positive line, albeit a bit more prominent than yesterdays as even OH can see the line 😅. It must be something wrong with the tests. I used these and got my BFP last time but it looks like I’ve picked up 2 packs from a bad batch possibly?
I’m tormenting myself. Debating whether to go and get FRER?
