Hi everyone so I got my peak on 23rd January and I think I ovulated on 24th.. I’m now 6DPO ovulation. I tested this morning and obviously I couldn’t see anything, but I’m already planning how to tell my partner and looking at baby clothes.. what is wrong with me! Anybody else? And the wait is dragging too!x

Sorry to hear that @KazMumTo2 I gave up on opks I found it all too complicated, we just did it every day around the fertile window and every other day the rest of the time and it worked. I think your plan sounds good, best of luck for next month xx

KazMumTo2 · 11/02/2021 18:21

@Cafeaulait27 thanks hun! Fingers crossed for next month! X

OMG I've given up symptom spotting, was convinced I was pregnant last month, even with implantation bleeding. Turns out was first time my body decided to do that ! Then period a day and a half later.

Comparing to when I was last pregnant, the 'symptoms' for me are the same - I just make more of them in the TWW.

Have resolved I'm def not testing until day after missed period. And I'm drinking a glass of wine a night in the TWW. Fingers crossed for all of us

KazMumTo2 · 11/02/2021 19:34

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 here’s to that glass of wine per night x

Thank you everyone for messages. I'm still bleeding. Wonder how long it lasts, is it just like a period then? I got my tests I ordered ages ago finally delivered today and just wanted to check what it said but there was no line at all...no surprise.

I had filled out a drs consultation form two days ago but they only called me at 5 today which I didn't think was great since they may have wanted to check HCG levels? Anyway, the Dr told me to call the early pregnancy care unit that's in the nearest city to me tomorrow morning to see how they want to proceed.
Spent the day packing the house and I just need to focus on the house move and that being exciting first.

Sorry to @AlexaPlayWhiteNoise :(
Apparently 1 in 4 early pregnancies end this way :(

oannic · 12/02/2021 05:51

Morning girls..
@Horehound, my mc (i think it was one).. was almost like a period but I just got weird tissue coming out. After the bleeding stopped I still got some coffee like bits when whipping (sorry tmi:() My test was also negative.. I guess the hcg drops immediately.
@KazMumTo2 sorry to hear that.. We actually only tried once when i was sure I ovulated and it worked - weird Blush

@willow2021, how is your bleeding going?
@1boo1 @LadyJane18 @Cafeaulait27 how are you feeling?

LadyJane18 · 12/02/2021 08:24

Sending you lots of love @Horehound ♥️

@oannic @1boo1 @Cafeaulait27
I’m feeling okay to be honest, slight tugging like you said every now and again but not much at all, boobs are getting more tender as the days go by and starting to wake up through the night for a wee (does that even happen this early on) 😂 I haven’t tested since I did my digital 1-2 weeks, so I’m going to test again today to make sure things are going how they should be. But symptoms tend to come in waves rather than constant so not too bad :) might be a different story come 6 weeks haha. How are you ladies feeling? xx

1boo1 · 12/02/2021 08:24

@oannic I'm feeling good thank you.. Few really light cramps again this morning that make me feel nervous but nothing major.

I took another FRER this morning to see if any changes... Top one at 10dpo and bottom one is this morning at 12dpo x

Only 6DPO and I feel like I’m going crazy! Anyone else with me?
1boo1 · 12/02/2021 08:28

Oh and just to add.. My little boobs feel a bit bigger again 🤭 honestly the most bizarre feeling being concious that you have boobs as never had them before 😂 probably still small compared to most people but they have gone really big for me! DH said my nipples look a bit different too but I haven't really noticed that (sorry if tmi lol)

LadyJane18 · 12/02/2021 08:52

Eeeep look at that strong line 💪🏼 That’s fab ☺️ I’ve been told to expect lots of cramping so I’m worrying that I’m not! Haha crazy what we panic about isn’t it 🙈 and yes same, mine are probably normal size now but big for me 😂 might actually have to start wearing a bra places. My nipples are definitley bigger too! They are the part that is sore for me. Starting to feel a little uneasy that I haven’t tested again so will let you know how I get on :) glad you’re doing well! xx

willow2021 · 12/02/2021 08:56

@oannic well it was only that once yesterday around lunch time. Then this morning I did number 2 and I guess the pushing made more come out. I dont have any cramps and its doesn't look like my period. I'm just so worried but I'm too early to have a scan

1boo1 · 12/02/2021 09:52

Hehe it is much stronger than 2 days ago! Not sure when to stop testing..

Glad you're all doing well 🥰 sharing symptoms helps so much. When I tell my DH he doesn't know what to say - eg my hip hurt a few times yesterday and last night.. And I said I sound like a hypochondriac but now I feel something in my hip 😂

I keep trying to scroll up to find how far along we are in comparison to each other 🙈 where are we all up to?

I'm 12dpo and CD27 (avg28 day cycle not sure if that makes any difference!?)

LadyJane18 · 12/02/2021 14:35

It really does help, I think they think we are just plucking things out of thin air sometimes 😂 I felt groin/hip pain too so definitely good things :)
I think I’m 16 or 17dpo and CD29 I was supposed to come on my period yesterday, no signs of spotting or anything so guessing that’s good. Need to test again to make sure the weeks are going up on a digital :) have you told family or are you waiting? So hard to know what to do for the best x

1boo1 · 12/02/2021 15:39

Definitely 😂 should have seen his face when I said it! But seeing as I've been going on for weeks about baby stuff and OPKs, flashing smileys, symptoms etc it really does sound like plucking from thin air to them haha.
That's good, my AF would be due Sunday but with my test looking stronger I'm hoping that's a good sign at least!
I'd love to tell my mum but DH thinks I should wait a few weeks just incase, as last month I nearly told her the day MC started and would have been awful to phone her back and tell her. He said he would like to wait til 1st scan to tell his parents which I agree with as hard to keep a secret 😂 how about you? X

oannic · 12/02/2021 15:59

@willow2021 I think that as long you don't have pains and heavy bleeding you shouldn't worry about it. Just try to not do lots of effort, rest, take your folic and maybe magnesium and everything will be fine. xx

@1boo1 wow that line looks great! I am also dying to tell my mum but the dr said to wait. I also love my new boobs btw.. So weird to have them big 😂

@LadyJane18 that's good to hear. My boobs are also really tender and the insomnia kills me!

oannic · 12/02/2021 16:02

I am today at 15 dpo (CD between 28-31, avg 30).

I received the blood result from the Dr and the HcG level is at 381 which is good and means that the tiny poppy seed has now 2 weeks 😂 which makes sense considering that 2 weeks ago we sealed the deed 😂

Tuesday I will have another set of blood tests and he said that on the 22nd we should see something..eeek!

1boo1 · 12/02/2021 16:11

Oh wow that's amazing you'll get to see something so soon 😁 how exciting! Glad you like your new boobs too 😂 I keep looking at mine to make sure they are still there. I've never been bothered but I hope they stay after pregnancy!

I rang my GP to see what appointments I need to make (more like really won't someone to either blood test me or scan me 😂) and they booked me in for the 15th March for my first Midwife apt at 8 weeks. That seems like such a long time to wait with nothing!?

oannic · 12/02/2021 16:17

Oh that's a bit of waiting. And we thought the tww is horrible.. How wrong were we huh? I also just want someone to look at my insides already 😂

Stardust89 · 12/02/2021 18:22

Hi ladies,

AF is due today CD28, slight cramping and tender boobs so probably is on her way. I haven't tested since my bfn on Sunday.

Going to try and hold out testing as I only have CB tests in the house and don't want to waste it haha 🙃 I have some cheapies from Amazon on the way.

Just kind of want AF because I'm convinced she's imminent, so I can get to TTC month 2.

How are you all doing?

1boo1 · 12/02/2021 21:22

@oannic hahaha that really made me laugh, same!!

@Stardust89 everything crossed for you that AF doesn't turn up, a lot can change in a week since your last test 🤞🏼 x

oannic · 13/02/2021 05:24

@Stardust89 when did your boobs started to get tender? cause if your AF was supposed to start your boobs should actually get normal again no? when did you ovulated?

1boo1 · 13/02/2021 07:05

Anyone else struggling to stay asleep? I've been awake since 5.30am and can't get back to sleep which is not like me!
Also got in bed exhausted at 9pm which is also not like me (usually at least 12!) I wake maybe 4 or 5 times in the night at the moment!?

oannic · 13/02/2021 07:20

Same :( i keep waking up at night and can't fall asleep anymore :(
I'm sorry for you but happy I am not the only one xx

willow2021 · 13/02/2021 09:20

@oanic @1boo1 I haven't been able to sleep in over a week now. Well a full nights sleep. I'm probably getting like 5 to 6 hours Max a night. The spotting seems to have stopped. It only happened a tiny smidge 2 days ago once. Then yesterday morning there was a bit more but since then nothing. My friend who had spotting said it last 6 days and then came back a week later so im still expecting its reappearance but hopefully not.
I woke up feeling hungry and nauseous Confused didn't know if I wanted to eat or be sick

oannic · 13/02/2021 12:53

I know I sound selfish but glad I am not the only one.. I was actually starting to worry that I can't sleep.
Today I have been incredibly hungry all the time! I am trying to eat fruits and nuts as snacks but it's like the whole doesn't fill Hmm
