Hey guys! Sorry been super busy at work today! Even though I’m so distracted haha! Have a day off tomorrow so will write out my full story and all my symptoms for you all 😊 Loved reading yours @mintgreenline, I think mine will be similarly epic!! So interesting comparing our symptoms I love it!
@Ams19 sending all the positive thoughts lovely I’m sure everything will be absolutely fine, I can’t even imagine how stressful it’s been for you but yes to echo some of the other girls I’ve heard that bleeding is quite normal. I know that won’t make it any easier to deal with though. Sending lots of love and keep us updated xxx
@Kay00 haven’t told anyone yet, literally just you guys hahha!! It’s our little secret for now 😊 I think we’ll book an early reassurance scan as I’m quite an anxious person and also we’ll pretty much have to tell our families at Christmas because I’m always on the prosecco and it would be immediately obviously. So my parents and brother, and DH’s parents and siblings. No-one else though. I’ll be nearly 8 weeks at Christmas so still insanely early but I feel like it’s just what we need to do, if that makes sense. I’m hoping it’ll be a lovely surprise as only my Mum knows we’re TTC and even with her I stopped mentioning it a couple of months ago just because I didn’t want to talk about it! So we need to think of some ways to surprise everyone, all being well in a month’s time 😊 it’ll probably be in the garden with today’s news!!! Sooooooo excited to tell my Mum though, literally cannot wait.
@Juno231 so much to think about! I honestly feel like I’m not letting myself think about any of that yet because it’s just so early. I’m just trying to stay calm, positive, keep taking my temp, and keep doing pregnancy tests every couple of days. That’s about as much as I can do at the moment! I guess we’ll call the Dr next week when I’ll be 4 weeks and a few days. I did order a book though, the classic! What to Expect When You’re Expecting so looking forward to curling up tomorrow and getting stuck into that 😊
@laurat94 best of luck for your first TWW!
@Kay00 your chart is looking fab! 16 day ovulation is the dream! I didn’t get a peak OPK either this cycle despite also testing 3 times a day, if that makes you feel any better! It does sound like your thermometer might be a bit messed up. Vaginal temping is meant to be more consistent isn’t it. You can’t control if you sleep with your mouth open or not which is so frustrating! I very much enjoyed your foof story though hahahha!!
@chinchilly another one who thinks that sounds like IB! Keeping everything crossed for you!
@Keeppositivekeepsmiling welcome! As others have said, a 16 day LP is absolutely brilliant, well done!
11DPO today guys, took an IC and a second FRER this morning and both lines were darker which made me so happy 😊 Temp was also the highest it’s ever been. 36.80 at 5am!! Adjusting that for 7am is 37.02 say whaaaattttt!! I’ve also ordered some Clear Blue ones to hopefully see the word on it 😊 Still having the odd sharp, needle-like pains in my lower abdomen which I’ve had since like 6DPO. Have a very sore lower back now (I have a dodgey back so it’s always a base level of sore haha but lordy have I noticed it today!) and feel generally quite bloated! Also same as @mintgreenlife, get very hungry very suddenly!
