TTC chat!

[apwilso]

Hey!

Want to get a group of ladies who are TTC at the same time to have someone to chat to during this journey together. It's a lonely process for me and only
In early stages of trying but would love advice, tips and general chat. This is an open chat and can't wait to chat to you all

X

@Originalusername6432762 yes I might test again in the morning, will see how I feel. Xx

@apwilso argh to AF limbo. Not sure what else you can do apart from carry on the knicker watch and keep clear blue in business. We're here for you though 😊

@Waiting2BeaMama yes! Me too! Sides and nips 😬

@BellaStar2020 yes! I feel so guilty being so jealous of those dear little babies that make my sisters so happy (and tbf, I get cuddles so that is a positive)
@Originalusername6432762 it's so hard being happy sometimes, isn't it?

@BellaStar2020 been testing for the past 4 days just done another and BFN i have no more now so I'll just wait it out.

@MamaMoonbeam thanks lovely!❤️❤️

@1992EM one maybe so far some of us still waiting out. fingers crossed for you xxxx

Ok this is a TMI post so if you don’t like gross things look away now 😂

Went to the loo (knicker check -nothing) but I checked my CM and it’s gone from barely anything/dry to like a cloudy slightly slimy texture. Not enough to stretch between fingers more of a wet slimy cloudy look that sat in a little ball on my finger 😂

Only sharing as I feel things are finally starting to change with my body and a regular cycle could be slowly on it’s way 🎉 meaning I can start tracking ovulation etc.

@Dex1521
Similar happened to me the other day and I read it can happen after exercise?

@Originalusername6432762 oh really. Would make sense then as we went on a long walk around the coast of saltburn this morning 😒 disappointed now 😂

Hi all 😌 sorry, been a bit MIA since I got AF, how’s everyone doing?
I’m currently on CD5, AF is over and counting down to ovulation which should hopefully be around 10 days time.

Hi everyone, bit lost in the chat too!

@MrsLauraM a new month and another shot!

@1992EM I don’t think there have been BFPs yet

@apwilso are you still waiting? Are you overdue AF?

Also in limbo here too, it’s a killer isn’t it! So confusing 🤦‍♀️

Still no AF here and tests still negative, now 3 days late. I thought I could see a shadow on test this morning but couldn’t tell if I’m just driving myself crazy. But I’m feeling nauseous yet again tonight and what was a potential metallic taste in my month is tastes much more definite. I’m really hoping that was a line and it’s going to be stronger this morning. I have to say I feel disgusting I don’t know what else it could be at this point!! Except me being crazy 😝😂

@Bouncytree @MrsLauraM hey! Yeah it's been weird how are you two doing

Well I'm a bit confused at the minute on cycle day 32 because I'm replying at 1am!!! But starting with some light cramping and thought I'd come on Af but all I had all day is pink blood when I've wiped. Sorry for this TMI but when my AF comes I'm extremely heavy with bright red blood but this time it's pink and hardly any and the consistency is watery 👀 could this be implantation.

I don't want to sound stupid but is that considered spotting or could someone explain what spotting is 🤣

Morning all. @Originalusername6432762 @MamaMoonbeam @Waiting2BeaMama I did another test this morning (still sainsbury blue dye) and got the same result as yesterday! I also did a second one (from Asda which is a pink dye one) and got a BFN. So feel just the same as I did yesterday, have no idea what to believe plus all symptoms (other than being bloated, gassy acne which could just be pms) seem to have gone now

@apwilso that does sound like implantation bleed. Fingers and ties crossed for you, lovely 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Oh no @BellaStar2020 tww limbo is a horrid place to be!

I have convinced myself that I'm not pregnant so just a bit solemn waiting for af to arrive. Im 6dpo and nothing in particular has convinced me but feeling like perhaps if I expect AF I won't be so disappointed when she rears her head 🤷🏻‍♀️ chopping strategy, I guess

@Dex1521
Sorry!

@apwilso
I get spotting and from what I've read it's brown or pink and never too heavy for a pant liner. I got some pink this month on wiping and never had that before, but I don't know if it means anything. I think spotting is just like discharge but it's blood coloured. From other knowledge I think brown is if it has to travel a bit to come out or takes longer, red or pink is fresher.

@BellaStar2020
Oh that's weird, could be that your levels are not high enough. Maybe wait a few days and try again x

@MamaMoonbeam
I'm due today, last night I cried because I thought it had started but still nothing. I've told myself no more crying 😂
That's good if you can convince yourself no and then it's a nice surprise if you are wrong!

@Originalusername6432762 I think if I assumed I was pregnant every month I tried it really would kill me, or more accurately, I'd probably top myself. So it's a sensible stance for my mental health 😊 although it's probably a good place to be in rather than being sad every month if/when af appears 🤷🏻‍♀️

@MamaMoonbeam yes I will maybe test on Tuesday and use a clear blue or am cosidering just waiting to see if AF arrives on Thursday?

Hello- TTC since April 2020 - regular periods so assume I am ovulating. Can I see a positive LH test? I think I am but clear blue ovulation says no smiley face 🤦‍♀️

@MamaMoonbeam
Yes that sounds like a good way to be, I'll have to try that myself x

No longer convinced this is implantation think it's just AF! I'll be back on tracking from Wednesdayish. Maybe next cycle!

Hello! I’m new to Mumsnet. I’ve been TTC for 15 months, no luck yet, and I’m 36. Never been pregnant before.
Currently in the dreaded TWW and obsessed with any possible change in my body which could be a sign of pregnancy.🤞

Morning ladies, I did a clearblu digital this morning and I got a BFP 1-2 weeks.
Which initially made me really happy but seconds later (I think because of everything that I read online) is making me wonder if it is a false positive? Maybe an just being crazy paranoid and don't want to believe it?!

@BellaStar2020 congratulations 💕

OMG @BellaStar2020 super congratulations!! False positives don’t really happen..you are PG!! Woop. It is also a little strange when it happens, it’s kinda abstract so it does feel like....am I really? But yes, you are!

So after all my fuss....bloody AF has arrived! She has been Playing tricks on me. I ovulated late and maybe that just pushed AF forward. Few days. I really felt gross and what were those 6 days of cramps about 🤷‍♀️

Anyway mystery solved at least I suppose. Gutted when I went to test. But over it now. Back on the baby dance train 🚂🤣

@apwilso we are headed back there together!

@Misty84 Hi, yes we like to obsess here too 🤪

@Originalusername6432762 did AF come?

@Waiting2BeaMama @MamaMoonbeam how are you both getting on?

@BellaStar2020 aw congrats 🎉 I’d be over the moon x

I’ve no chance of getting a BFP anytime soon so here’s a pic of my breakfast 🤣 going back on my healthy eating after a week of bad food and a weekend of alcohol. Two weeks off the pill tomorrow so hoping I’ll see a return of some sort of cycle soon 🤞

(It’s toast with scrambled egg and avocado btw)

@Bouncytree thank you, I feel like I’m in the right place here then!!😛
So sorry to hear about AF...back on the train indeed!🤦‍♀️
Beginning of my TWW I had a sudden acne outbreak which is refusing to budge (reminds me of my teenage years!), then half way through my breasts have become extremely sore and I’m having mild stomach cramps. None of this is my usual period signs.
So I’ve become so excited, couldn’t sleep last night and instead was ordering baby reveal cards for all my family!! Partner looking extremely worried for me when I gushingly showed him this morning.
Setting myself up for a big fall much? This is what 15 months of trying has done to me...xx

@Misty84
Welcome! That sounds familiar, but I try really hard not to get my hopes up too much as I'm really really bad with disappointment!

@Bouncytree
Sorry to hear about AF, nothing from me but last month was 4 days late as well. Just want to get it over with now really 😂
