It’s our first month of vaguely trying so I’m not convinced that it will obviously happen but despite that it’s dragging so much !
AF due 13 th !!

Well I am now having a freak out. I started drinking a alcoholic free gin and tonic and then read that juniper is unsafe during pregnancy and can cause miscarriage. I had no more than 75ml but now worried 😭

LetsD0ThisThing · 09/10/2020 21:34

@Trying4one I think that until around week 6 anything we have consume doesn't get to the baby, once the placenta is formed fully that's when it will provide all the nourishments from mum. So try not to worry yourself too much.

That's crazy that you went from a negative to those definite lines on the space of a few hours Shock maybe I'll wait till later on at 10dpo then 😀

Trying4one · 09/10/2020 21:40

@LetsD0ThisThing I feel like there is a lot to learn. I don't even know what made me Google it. Apparently juniper can cause uterus spasms. I think the amount I consumed was so small but still enough for me to freak out 🤣🤦
I think my cheapie wasn't sensitive enough which is whey I decided to take a FRER and a CB

Amy259 · 09/10/2020 22:22

@Trying4one I’m sure you’ll be absolutely fine! I bet people do much worse than juniper when they don’t know they’re pregnant!! Positive vibes 😂

@LetsD0ThisThing have you got lots of weekend plans to try and keep yourself distracted from testing??

Sweetk0987poiu · 10/10/2020 01:40

My first month ttc too! I’m 6dpo (I think 😂) I’ve got really sore boobs tonight like standing without a bra on is a killer! Trying to wait till Monday to test 😬

Katierose34 · 10/10/2020 08:07

@Trying4one I'm sure you will be OK.
I have woke with still mild cramping, was exhausted last night. A bit irritable last night and this morning, even hubby eating crisps was annoying me Confused

Foggymist · 10/10/2020 08:08

Hi all, I've been following this thread as I'm on 2ww too Smile I think I'm about 8/9dpo, tested yesterday with a frer and it was negative of course! I thought I was 9dpo then but realised last night I was at least a day out. My cycle has been weird the last few months readjusting since it came back, so varies a bit in length.

I haaaate the 2ww, have had a couple of symptoms this week that I only had when pg with my dc but trying not to put too much on that. But I woke up this morning with a tmi symptom and I'm either pregnant or have a nasty tummy bug Confused

Will have to wait until tomorrow to try frer with fmu, can't take the suspense, af not due until Thurs/Fri!

KittyJean · 10/10/2020 11:43

@Foggymist I broke and tested today too. I think I'm about 10-12dpo and got a bfn of course. Only on a cheapie. I am trying not to hope anymore it's just too hard. But @Trying4one your experience says there is still hope for us until the dreaded day!

Trying4one · 10/10/2020 11:51

@KittyJean keeping my fingers crossed for you all. You are not out until AF arrives. Remember some people don't get BFP until after they have a late AF.
My AF was due tomorrow and for some reason bricking it that I will have bleeding tomorrow 🤦
My friend recently had a baby and said I will never not worry again 🙈 #funtimes 🤣

LemonDrizzle44 · 10/10/2020 12:14

14dpo today temperature usually drops a fair bit today if AF is coming. It's dropped by 0.1 but this isn't as much as usual. RHR is still up too 😬. Still having mild cramps and nausea. Even DP "morning smell" made me feel sick this morning. Feel like everything smells more than usual.

@Trying4one I agree with what pp said regarding baby doesn't feed off mum until placenta is formed. I'm sure you'll be ok. I think I'll be the same too! I suffer with anxiety at the best of times. I had 3 cups of tea yesterday and then suddenly thought about the caffeine 🤦🏻‍♀️ lol.

@Sweetk0987poiu welcome. Sounds positive but hold off if you can 6dpo is still very early! Fingers crossed for you though.

@Foggymist fingers crossed for tomorrow. I tested 10dpo and feel like I was seeing things.

Trying4one · 10/10/2020 12:25

@LemonDrizzle44 I get anxiety too and had self referred CBT over the summer. It has helped a lot but I think pregnancy will make it rear it's ugly head. I think the worry book is going to get a lot of use 🤣
It is sounding positive. Getting excited for you. Ekk. I won't be a bad influence and encourage you to take a test this afternoon 🤣

Amy259 · 10/10/2020 12:25

Welcome @Foggymist!

@KittyJean fingers crossed for you.

@LemonDrizzle44 you have patience I could only dream of to not test every morning at this point! 😂🤞🏻

LemonDrizzle44 · 10/10/2020 12:31

@Trying4one & @Amy259 😂 funnily enough I bought several FRERs and CB digitalis last month and hid them. I had completely forgotten where I put them until I found them this morning whilst looking for something else. Now I know where they are I'm trying so hard to wait until Monday!

Sohe · 10/10/2020 16:37

Well I have in and tested before i said I would. BFN on a FRER. 😢 X

Trying4one · 10/10/2020 16:43

@LemonDrizzle44 I am waiting patiently until you test 🤣
@Sohe you may be one of those who doesn't get a BFP until a couple of days after their missed period. You are not out until AF arrives. How long did you hold your pee and what time of day did you do the test?

Sohe · 10/10/2020 17:01

Hi @Trying4one. I did it at around 3pm. Not sure about hold. I’m just going to try forget about it all now and just wait for AF to arrive. Was starting to feel hopeful but I do think it’s over for another month. I just feel like TTC is taking over my life. It’s all I think about and it’s actually driving me crazy. I had a chemical last month which I got a BFP at 10DPO but then started bleeding 3 days later. And had an early loss in June so I think if that second line was coming it would have been There by now. X

Amy259 · 10/10/2020 17:08

@Sohe sorry to hear that - I was the same last month, bfp 11dpo then bleeding 4 days later, and I obsessively googled chemicals afterwards and read a few articles that said that most chemicals follow really early positive tests, so there’s hope in a late bfp! Do you track anything else like bbt or rhr? Or did you feel any different last month symptom wise during your tww compared to af feelings?
And don’t stress about feeling crazy - I think most of us are unfortunately in the same boat. I know I am!! ♥️

Sohe · 10/10/2020 17:18

@Amy259 hi Hun. Sorry about your loss. Its just awful how one days it’s there and the next it’s gone!!

Yer I do try to do BBT but I work shifts so my chart always looks erratic. Last month I had cramps and sore boobs. This time Iv had nausea but I think it must have been in my head. Since I came off birth control I don’t really get any AF symptoms anymore. It’s usually just starts suddenly with no warning! Guess we just have to ride it out and hope for the best x

LetsD0ThisThing · 10/10/2020 19:37

Hi everyone - well I did it, I tested tonight with a FRER and an easy@home and got 2 BFN! 😔 only 9pdo and knew this would be the result.

greenjavapiano · 10/10/2020 20:11

Hi all, I’m TTC since jan 2018 (not counting 6 of those months). Currently on TWW AF due around 23rd Oct. I try not to test without good reason, which works well if AF comes on time or early then I can move onto the next cycle without too much anguish. Had MC at 6 weeks in May. For some reason I think this will be my lucky month, which doesn’t bode well as completely giving up all hope seemed to work the month I got PG.

@letsD0ThisThing sorry to hear that I think 9dpo is early so theres still a chance

LetsD0ThisThing · 10/10/2020 20:31

@greenjavapiano hi, welcome to our 2ww group.
Yes 9dpo is definitely too early, for me anyway. I wouldn't usually test at 9dpo but as it was my birthday I was saying to the other ladies the other day how a birthday bfp would be amazing, so I thought I'd give it a go. You know how fun it is peeing on fivers 🤣

LetsD0ThisThing · 10/10/2020 20:32

Sorry posted too soon.
So sorry to hear about you mc. Fingers crossed your gut feeling is right at this is your month x

Amy259 · 10/10/2020 21:05

@greenjavapiano welcome! Sorry for your loss, fingers crossed for some good news this month. My af is due 22nd so I’ll look forward to the two weeks of torture with you!

@LetsD0ThisThing peeing on money seems to be my favourite hobby these days 😂😂

greenjavapiano · 10/10/2020 21:22

Mistake in my first post AF is actually due around 16th, not 23rd, so hopefully I’ll know either way by next weekend.

@letsDOThisThing A BFP this month would mean 12 weeks at around Christmas and being able to tell family/friendsSmile

Trying4one · 10/10/2020 21:26

@LetsD0ThisThing 😂😂 next time I want to but a FRER to do a line progression comparison I will ask myself do I want to pee on a fiver 😂😂😂
