@Lucille3 what dpo are you? (Sorry I can never remember what people say in this as so much going on 😂)

jessi60 · 24/11/2020 19:08

So I’ve just went to loo and had some brown and then light pink spotting and now I’m even more confused to what the hells going on with my body. Surely can’t be another peroid im only CD 19 🙁 xx

Lucille3 · 24/11/2020 19:08

@jessi60 thanks ❤️ I'll be out for next month as ovu is due in the 5 days I'll be looking after my mum (of course!) ah well, I suppose I can drink all the port at Xmas!

@Dex1521 I'm 11 dpo, but it was a frer which I believe should show it by now

Ah well, I'll get over myself and out of the doldrums soon enough.

Lucille3 · 24/11/2020 19:09

@jessi60 could it be implantation? You did have that well time bd right?

Dex1521 · 24/11/2020 19:17

@Lucille3 might not be completely ruled out this month. I had a friend who was ttc and it took her 5days past her missed period to get a faint positive then it slowly got got darker. Maybe test again in a few days time?

jessi60 · 24/11/2020 19:19

@Lucille3 You can enjoy a lovely Christmas and we will all be hear still for support!! But you never know some people still test negative. Not out until the witch shows 😂

Hmmm I doubt it just because of how poorly I’ve been. That’s how my chart looks. Said I ovulated CD 14 cause my highest opk was that day but it still wasn’t that high to be honest and then they’ve been fairly high ever since 😂 we did dtd the days before but basically stopped the day of the highest opk result because that’s when I started being poorly. Didn’t have ovulation pains or any ewcm then either so god knows.

Suppose I could have messed up cycle lengths after the implant🤦🏻‍♀️ Only time will tell I guess Xx

@Dex1521 @jessi60 thanks both, it's such an emotional rollercoaster eh!

jessi60 · 24/11/2020 19:47

Apparently you can get ovulation bleeding aswell. It’s more complicated than I thought😅

Dex1521 · 24/11/2020 20:35

@jessi60 honestly I learn something new about ttc everyday! When I do fall pregnant I’ll be starting from square one learning everything again 😂

CardioQueen · 24/11/2020 20:45

@jessi60 yes, when I looked back at my first 'cycle' between withdrawal bleed and first period, I had spotting/light bleeding CD27 & 28. At the time I thought it was my period and I was so pleased with such a regular length cycle, then it went away and 10 days later I got proper period - so I think (but wasn't tracking anything) that was my ovulation. Didn't get it last cycle though 🤷🏻‍♀️

Dex1521 · 25/11/2020 07:32

6dpo today. Woke up with nasal congestion and mild cramps which is the first day I’ve had any symptoms except for the hard sore nipples since 2dpo. Told myself I wouldn’t symptom spot but that’s not going too well 😂

Bells20 · 25/11/2020 08:23

Morning all

@jessi60 I was thinking perhaps ovulation spotting too, I remember reading that could happen in one of my many google searching rabbit holes! Hope you're feeling a bit feeling better now!

FF has me at 3dpo now after some temp rises so officially in the TWW 🎉🤞🏻

Jojobobo · 25/11/2020 08:30

Hi All, I’ve been TTC for 10 months and having never even got a faint line, I got a squinter yesterday (14DPO) with frer. I took another one 4 hours later and the line got darker and this morning I took this and it’s darker but still faint for 15DPO with a sensitive test. Should I be worried? Anyone else had delayed darkening even with sensitive tests?

I want to scream with celebration but just feel that I’m not quite there yet Shock

Yay for the TWW @Bells20! 🥳 I am currently 4DPO, this is what I’m looking like so far! 😊 trying not to symptom spot!! 😒

My last cycle was 26 days, but the one before was 29! so thinking I might do a test around 26 days if AF hasn’t arrived!

How is everyone else getting on?

Hey @jojobobo aw congrats. Hope you see some progression on the tests, it's horrible waiting to see if a BFP gets darker. Can't say really if the line 'should' be darker or not at at 15dpo... I think hormone levels do vary from person to person? Most of us on this thread have only just started TTC. A couple of us have been lucky and got early BFPs, but we're all newbies. Have you started a thread? If not, it could be worth beginning your own thread, you might get more opinions that way from people who have had BFPs.

@positivitytree2020 that chart is looking great 🙂

Emmgrem · 25/11/2020 09:09

@Dex1521 if you do get to do your south coast trip try to get to Brighton too if you've never been before! It's just got the best vibe!
I live in Southampton, so not too far for me to travel either way, I could never live too far from the coast.

@jessi60 I saw you'd had house dramas too! It's so stressful with everything else going on isn't it. We all just need something to look forward to!

I've just woken up and wiped and there's blood, and I'm only on CD19 which I think happened to you too! 🙈🤷🏻‍♀️ Ive had a big temp dip this morning too. But I also feel crappy down there so surely it is some kind of period and not implantation or ovulation bleeding. I had ovulation signs on CD5-7 though so all really early- I'm not sure what's going on!

@DrS44 sorry you're out this month but as everyone's said it's really good news to have your first normal period so soon after the pill abs to know you've got the best possible chance next month

Jojobobo · 25/11/2020 09:11

@GreenApplesYo firstly, can I apologise if this was insensitive in anyway. I have never posted here before and I was overwhelmed with where to go to be honest. So apologies!

Thank you for your feedback, really appreciate it

GreenApplesYo · 25/11/2020 09:15

@jojobobo hey! Oh no sorry! It's absolutely fine. Also I didn't mean to sound unwelcoming, you're really welcome here. I should have said it would be nice to hear how you get on 🙂we all know TTC can be stressful, the waiting is horrendous. Just meant that you might get more people saying their tests looked like that at 15dpo if you start a thread about it, could hopefully be more reassuring?

positivitytree2020 · 25/11/2020 09:16

Thanks @GreenApplesYo 😊 happy that my chart is now starting to make sense! 😊 hopefully temps will stay up, third cycle lucky maybe! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Bells20 · 25/11/2020 10:10

@positivitytree2020 hopefully we can keep each other sane over the next week or so haha I'm also trying not to symptom spot- got a slight twinge of a headache today and have googled 'is it possible to get a BFP at 3dpo?' The answer was a resounding no of course 😂 your chart looks fab, here's mine if anyone's interested. Had a really interesting temp dip on the day of my peak! I'm planning to test at 12dpo with an FRER which will be next Friday but let's not pretend I won't try a few Internet cheapies before then haha

@Jojobobo sorry I can't offer any real advice really but I'm thinking some people can have a later implantation so it could just be that you don't have enough HCG in your body yet and that line will get darker over the next few days? Wishing you lots of luck though!

@Emmgrem @Dex1521 missed what you guys were talking about but just wanted to second that Brighton is just an amazing place and I too would recommend a trip!

@GreenApplesYo how are you getting on? X

@Bells20 haha yeah originally talking about house prices up north compared to south coast then I mentioned holidays to the south coast. Definitely would love to go to Brighton heard so many good things about it!

Also to add to my post about 6dpo and waking up congested I’ve just eaten a bagel thin with butter and omg I want to puke 🤢 good job my makeshift home office is next door to the bathroom 😂

Foxl2222 · 25/11/2020 10:32

Morning ladies! I finally got a surge🤞 does this mean I ovulated yesterday as that was my peak? And now it's on way down again? Will keep testing for a few days and see what happens! Dtd about 7/8 times between Friday and this morning, but of all days yesterday I was home late from work and neither me or OH could manage it😅, hopefully something will come of it🤞Already have the frer's ordered- so here goes my "relaxed, going with the flow" TWW🙈

Anyone else starting TWW 😃

Congrats @Jojobobo that line is pretty clear to me. I've seen people post a lot more faint. Maybe keep testing with some cheapies and see what happens! Frers are expensive.

@Bells20 that’s a lot of times since Friday so I hope it goes to plan for you!! I’m 6dpo today and today’s the first day I’ve had any symptoms really up to now I’ve felt fine but feeling nauseous and tired today and have a blocked nose on one side. All PG symptoms but trying to not get my hopes up either

Foxl2222 · 25/11/2020 11:13

🤞@Dex1521 the symptom spotting is the worst! At least your half way through the wait! Hang in there 🙌🙌 xx
