@dippyegg32 that clear blue looks positive to me! I can see the line on the Wondfo too.
Oh everything crossed for you xx

Ralala · 13/03/2021 23:04

So I’m rational again after last night. Hubs is allowed to be tired .... goodness I’m crazy ttc lady already!

Ralala · 13/03/2021 23:04

@dippyegg32 I see a line on the clear blue. How about a digital on Tuesday if no af?xxx

LauraT94 · 14/03/2021 07:13

@dippyegg32 my fingers are crossed for you 🤞🏻

So ladies, my hormones are raging! My BBT is still increasing (I'm at 37.06 now 😱) and my RHR (now 84) is too! Looking back at my previous chart when I had the miscarriage, my RHR had actually dropped quite a lot by this point and my temps weren't as high either! Had a good feeling about taking another digital and sure enough I got my 2-3 result on the Clearblue! So happy 🥰 I think I will stop BBT and monitoring RHR now. Clearly my body's doing what it needs to for now so I'm going to try and relax and let it be!

Just thought I would update that although the anxiety is 100% there, I think I'm starting to regain trust in my body and trust that I'm actually pregnant! Coming up to the scan date (09/04) will be hard and anxiety inducing again but I'm hoping I can pass through the next few weeks without too much fear!

How you doing @Mellous?

AMS19 · 14/03/2021 07:25

Morning ladies. Just a message to say for those who are mummies Happy Mother's Day. And for those of us who aren't yet, one day it will be our turn ❤

Mellous · 14/03/2021 07:36

@LauraT94 fab news lovely!!
@dippyegg32 I’m ok, not bothering to test today just waiting for my period to show up. How are you?
@AMS19 aww we will have our Mother’s Day one day xx

@LauraT94 we are not only cycle twins but we are now test twins!!

Did a CB digi today and also got my 2-3 - my RHR has also started to rise which in delighted about!

Anxiety is also very much there... But I am really just trying to focus on the present and one day at a time and it's helped me already! Every morning say to yourself... Today I am pregnant and don't think about what could possibly happen, just focus on getting through a day at a time! 💕💕

Sending love to everyone this mothers day 😘

Wow @Pettylamby that's amazing news congratulations

Happy Mother's Day to everyone that is a mum and one day all you mums to be. They say you are a mum from the moment you start trying to conceive Daffodil

I started using the CB ovulation tests this month and I kept getting a negative (plain round circle) and same on Friday and then boom yesterday was Peak smiley face. I DTD Wednesday, Friday and Saturday but obv my fertile days will be yesterday and today I assume and assume ovulation will be today no idea. Have I DTD enough or need to again tonight for good measure?

I was surprised I didn't get the flashy smiley face on the CB and went straight from negative to Peak overnight. Anyone else had this?

CaroW123 · 14/03/2021 08:30

Hi everyone - I found out on 08/03 that I was pregnant. Started spotting v light pinky watery blood on Friday morning. Did another test which was quite faint - the urine was like clear water. Also had sex Friday morning and have learned this can be cause of bleeding too. I called Epu on Friday afternoon and they said bleeding v common at this stage and to disregard the test and wait it out and test again in a week. Spotting got a bit more red abs a tiny bit stronger (still v light). Saturday morning was a bit more but nothing too much overall. It’s now stopped. I do normally have a very light period but this was not as strong as that. No cramping or pain. I guess I just have to wait it out and it could go either way - but wondering what others thought ??

dippyegg32 · 14/03/2021 08:42

@Mellous just waiting for af to come now. Temps risen to the highest it's been today so I imagine it'll crash tomorrow. Roll on a new cycle.

AMS19 · 14/03/2021 08:54

@Pettylamby oh look!!! And look at that dye stealer ❤❤❤ I'm honestly over the moon for you!!! This baby is an absolute champ and clearly destined to be here given the start xx

Pettylamby · 14/03/2021 09:01

@AMS19 what a week I've had! Feels like a month!! 🤣🤣 Still a long way to go but all I wanted was confirmation of progression and here we are! Next goal - get a 3+ and get to 1st April without issue! Thank you got all the support! Don't know how I'd have coped without this thread!! 💕💕

Tamalama · 14/03/2021 09:20

@Pettylamby that's great news! 😊

Mellous · 14/03/2021 09:24

@dippyegg32 I can’t wait for af to arrive so I can start a new cycle! Due tues/weds I think. Positive thinking for next month! xx

Absolutely @Mellous! Xmas baby here we come!

SuzieDeLaTour · 14/03/2021 09:37

@LauraT94 oh yay!! I’m so glad it’s all going well!
@Pettylamby amazing news!! Gosh what a week for you but what a brilliant way to end it - so exciting!
@wag1987 the same happens to me - I’ve rarely had the flashing face. Can literally jump from a blank circle to a static Face in less than 12 hours. Do you use the LH strips? I often use those to see the progression so I can tell I’m gearing up for ovulation and then use the CB digital ones to confirm it if I’m not entirely sure whether I’ve peaked or not!
@CaroW123 oh I’m sorry you’re feeling in limbo and unsure what’s happening. It’s such early days it could be an implantation bleed? And yes sex can cause bleeding during pregnancy- I’ve had that in the past too. Annoyingly (and we feel your pain!) it sounds like it will be a case of wait and see unless you can convince your EPU to take bloods to test your HCg level? X

glowingtwig · 14/03/2021 09:44

Such fantastic news @Pettylamby ! I'm too scared to do digital tests 🙈 and anyway I'm only 4:3 so waiting on HCG on Monday.

Good luck for your new cycle @dippyegg32 ❤️

@CaroW123 it's so difficult at this point but as long as you I haven't had cramping or pain a bit of light bleeding is really common (I totally know the feeling of dread though when you see it). Set yourself a goal of testing in a week and try to distract yourself in the meantime - although it is so hard!

Great news for you too @LauraT94 🤩 it all looks great! Your body knows what to do (I have been saying this to myself this last week).

Happy Mother's Day ladies. You're a mummy as soon as you see that positive pregnancy test I think 💕

PlantMummy87 · 14/03/2021 09:46

Sending you all love today 💝 I know it wasn't the Mother's Day that any of us were imagining but we are all mother's even if our babies aren't physically here, they will be with us forever. I hope everyone has a restful day, take it easy on yourself, it can bring up a lot of emotions and feelings. It will be our turn soon 💕

@Pettylamby I'm so happy for you. You've been on an absolute rollercoaster of a week.

@LauraT94 your chart looks great and so glad to hear you have passed another milestone with the temps. Your body is doing an absolutely amazing job xx

wag1987 · 14/03/2021 10:18

@SuzieDeLaTour yes been using the cheapy ones too and they been really light. I've attached photo and 2 at top are from 11/3 and middle from 12/3 and then 13/3 at bottom which was when got my clear blue peak face too.
I wasn't sure if I have DTD enough this cycle or not.

SuzieDeLaTour · 14/03/2021 10:54

@wag1987 you had sex yesterday on your peak didn’t you? So that would give you a pretty good chance but it wouldn’t hurt to do it again today if you can be bothered! 😜 my peak stayed for 2/3 days this cycle and if that’s the case for you too then it might be worth having another go? Have you done a cheapie today to see what it says? X

Neady1980 · 14/03/2021 11:24

Happy Mothers day ladies. AF arrived this morning 2nd on after natural MC, my cycle was always 28-29 days and the last two have been 26 days. Has anyone else notice their cycle shorter than the normal. Anyway I'm in great form which I thought would be the opposite,bring on this new cycle woohoo

dippyegg32 · 14/03/2021 11:32

Happy new cycle @Neady1980! I'm the opposite mine have lengthened. Pre mc I was 25 days, last two were 28 and today I'm on cd24 with still high temps so I imagine another 28 day-er.
