@BabyAR22
Yes I have tested and BFN ! I dont know why i do it to myself 🤣 last time i got bfp about 3 days before my period was due. I think i just like testing , i have lateral covid tests that I have to do before going into work and I like doing them too 🤷‍♀️!! AF due thursday , got slighty tender boobs which is the norm fornme xx

BabyAR22 · 09/01/2021 17:15

@MgW1 damn! Well maybe it's just to early? I've never taken a pregnancy test in my 36 years. I fear I will get well into it if we're not success this time around. Fingers crossed and baby dust!!

MgW1 · 09/01/2021 17:21

@BabyAR22
Well i wanted to know so I know if I can have a few wines on a weekend or not! I have done a few - iv got 2 children and had 3 mc in total. 2 in last 6 month and one before my eldest. If you can manage it then wait til you AF due xx

Hello all- hope it's okay to join!

New to the TTC pages on MN but I'm 11DPO with about 5000 BFNs. AF due on 13th Jan. Lovely to see the positive test pics. Fingers crossed for lots more BFPs soon!

SophieMorton · 09/01/2021 22:05

@LAgeDeRaisin 5000 BFNs 😂😂 I feel it!

Lottiebugz22 · 09/01/2021 23:05

@sunshineandshowers3

Congratulations *@Lottiebugz22 and @PippaRoo88* ❤️🎉🙌 absolutely lovely news!

If you don’t mind me asking, 1) how long have you been trying and 2) did you do anything differently this month?

Such lovely, positive news!

@MiniBaker how’re you getting on? Due to ovulate tomorrow so trying to do lots of BD’ing!

Thank you x It's my 2nd Cycle. I've been very lucky. My previous daughter was a surprise baby. This baby was my first time actively trying. I checked my cervical mucus as soon as my period had finished. I had sex every time I saw it. That's pretty much all I did. I stopped having sex when it went. I hope this helps x

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking thank you, I just have that feeling again 😔 I'd just rather af showed up tomorrow so I don't have to wait any longer

@ZiggyStardustt yes this is definitely our year 🙂 yes ttc dc#1. I expected it to take up to a year but honestly didn't expect it to take us more than a year 😭

LikeSomeKindOfMadness · 10/01/2021 09:35

@Dogmum13 sorry to hear it has taken so long. I agree, this will be your year!

@Lottiebugz22 congratulations!

I am very confused. I had a slight rise on ovjlationntest yesterday but it was cycle day 23. But no peak. Could have missed that maybe? This would mean my whole efforts earlier this months won't have been for any benefit. Couldn't do anything yesterday when I saw it unfortunately. So this month may be nothing.
I do feel really sluggish and my nipples hurt but I'm probably just symptom spotting

BubsNumber2inTheMaking · 10/01/2021 10:21

@LikeSomeKindOfMadness I'm not seeing a peak opk this month either 😞 Don't think I'm going to ovulate as had an early mc last month but still feeling a bit gutted as really hoped I might. I've got one opk left. Will do it today, if negative will get some more tomorrow and probably keep testing until AF shows up in case my cycle is just off but have a feeling it's just not going to happen this month. 🤦🏼‍♀️
How long are your cycles usually? X

@Dogmum13 hope today stays good for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼

LikeSomeKindOfMadness · 10/01/2021 11:33

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking

I am so sorry to hear about your MC!

My cycles have been a bit all over the last couple of months, between 28 and 35 days. So who knows really. That's why I started with the OPK strips. I found it so weird to get a slight raise yesterday but no peak. It just seems too late. But it was nothing from day 16 onwards where I'd usually suspect it. Maybe I need to do it earlier too.

BubsNumber2inTheMaking · 10/01/2021 12:11

@LikeSomeKindOfMadness thank you 🙏
If it doesn't happen for you this month then I'd probs have a month where you start doing opks from after your period onwards and see what happens. What time of day are you doing them?x

Dogmum13 · 10/01/2021 12:24

@LikeSomeKindOfMadness thanks. I guess it can just be very emotionally draining after 12 months but every month is a new chance 🙂

@SophieMorton thank you. Pretty sure I'm about to come on though x

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 13:31

Still a week to go until AF is due, still got sore boobs which it not usual for me although I don't normally have them for the whole ttw, sore and now itchy nipples is new for me so I'm hoping that's a good sign!

So hard to not get your hopes up during this time ☹️

I'm going to try and not test until I am due on because I don't want to have the uncertainty of a potential faint line!

Hang in there! This is my first TWW and it is something else.
LAgeDeRaisin · 10/01/2021 14:02

BFN number 5001 today so looks like I'm out. Roll on February.

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 14:03

@BabyAR22 this is my 14th, I wish I could tell you it gets easier but I'm afraid I would be lying!

Every month I manage to convince myself I'm pregnant which only leads to disappointment but here I am again 🙋🏼‍♀️

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 14:05

@LAgeDeRaisin it's not over until it's over! When are you due on?

Dogmum13 · 10/01/2021 17:27

@Tara1711 I'm on my 14th cycle too! When are you due af?

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 18:00

@Dogmum13 I'm due around the 17th, what about you?

Hopefully the 14th month is luck for us! X

Dogmum13 · 10/01/2021 18:06

@Tara1711 I'm actually in my 13th month but 14th cycle as my cycles are usually shorter. I'm due af today according to my app. I feel so ill 🤢 but also feel like af is on it's way 😔

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 18:16

@Dogmum13 have you tested or do you wait and see if AF arrives?

BabyAR22 · 10/01/2021 18:21

Really wishing the best for you!! Baby dust. Lots of it!

Dogmum13 · 10/01/2021 18:26

@Tara1711 I tested yesterday with the easy@home ones but bfn 😭

Tara1711 · 10/01/2021 19:02

@BabyAR22 thanks so much!! I'm going to try and relax this week and see what happens!
