Look after yourself @CycloGoose❤️

Oh no @CycloGoose! Thinking of you. Stay strong 😞❤️

He had a go at me for confusing him about what I meant with the blood tests. Then he's just been silent. Men are shit at helping you through a tough time.

Not really positive but fake it til you make it right. I never believed it was real anyway so it's just been this long time in limbo.

Aww @CycloGoose. Men tend to deal with things differently don't they! He will be feeling the same as you just different ways of showing it. Xx

I'm so sorry @cyclogoose, you take care xx

@Laurashakey @minthumbugs I managed to get what I wanted last night! Woohoo! 😃🤞🏻

Lol @jodielouise26 woooohoooo, fingers crossed 🤞🏻

@CycloGoose yeah men deal with it differently. My DF is exactly the same 🙄

@jodielouise26 hahah wooo that’s good news hun, keep us updated x

@minthumbugs @Laurashakey it's gonna be a long waiting game now.
I'm working nights the rest of this week so that's probably the only chance I'll get 🤞🏻

Thanks everyone. Still scan this afternoon. My fecking temperature has gone up today just to spite me.

@jodielouise26 good skills girl! Well done 🤞🤞🤸

@CycloGoose Thankssss 🤭

Thinking of you lovely 💜 xx

@CycloGoose hope you're ok this morning and hubby is too. What was the confusion over the blood tests with him? Men are never good at these things though! Is the scan to 100% rule out or is there still a chance? X

I think I'm just booked in so it makes sense to go @Slinks8113 although they never like to diagnose these things with one data point anyway.
I'm taking it as a great opportunity to get my ovaries checked etc which will hopefully identify/rule out any pcos or endometriosis.
He's really dying after work. He's also a scientist with public health background. My veins are useless for getting blood out of and I'd said this to him. Then I'd said my blood tests were too low to sustain a pregnancy but he read this as 'my bloods are too low' and he was reading into this as blood count and blood pressure and having a little freakout I think. Especially as I do have existing borderline everything it seems 🤦🏼‍♀️ not really just on the anaemia side. I think I'd be anaemic in America but I'm not here 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyway. He's a bit of an internal catastrophiser I could just have done with not being snapped at but he was very good this morning and brought be a berocca in bed ☺️ Poor lamb. Don't think he slept.
I've decided not to go into school today which I feel really guilty about but I'm in quite a bit of pain and I had to leave in the afternoon anyway.
How are you doing? You worked your way up to feeling in the mood for your FW? 🤞❤️😘

Just checking in girls. Sending you so much love and support @CycloGoose xxxx

Good luck @jodielouise26 xx

So sorry to hear @CycloGoose.

@Laurashakey I had the stabby pain when you sneeze when pregnant too

Girls do any of you with longer cycles use the clearblue OPKS? I usually ovulate no earlier than CD20, tomorrow is CD8 for me and the app wants me to take my first test tomorrow. I'm not sure about the science of it but does it need tests from super early to measure a rise or something? Or am I good to just use cheapies every couple of days until next week and then start? Don't want to waste the pricey sticks haha. X

I've read some post on here about suuuuper faint lines on pregnancy tests just being water marks? I think I'm imagining it...but it's the faaaaintest of lines so I'm guessing it's that.
I told myself I wasn't going to test so soon...not due til end of week. to be honest it's highly unlikely due to the fact couldn't dtd much at the time of supposed ov.. only once before day of positive opk due to illness. so it's sooo unlikely. I've been cramping for days...waiting for AF to arrive (not really sure of cycles ...last one was 27 days after MC. AF due on Friday using that cycle) little brown discharge yesterday. Felt a bit sick this morn. thinking it's all PM's..although I don't (or didn't priory to MC?) get symptoms really only maybe cramp day or two before and during. I only did the test as I was annoying myself ...but was trying to wait so hard as I'm sure and is going to appear any day/minute!!!

@minthumbugs I'd just use the cheapies, sometimes not worth it with cb especially if you're quite sure you're not ovulating for ages I suppose. That's what I would do anyway!

Yeah @halpmer that's what I did last month. But I felt like the CB app was telling me off 🙈 I wasn't sure if they do that to get you to use more and spend more money! Or if you genuinely have to be testing every day for 2 weeks 🤷‍♀️ Will go for the cheapskate method again and see what happens lol. X

@mammaj21 oh post a picture! 🤞🏻

Hope that pic has worked. I feel like it's not real. it was too soon to test... and just a evaporation or waterline or something

@MammaJ21 That's a line!!!! Do another one! X

@minthumbugs my cycles are around 34 days, definitely do not ovulate before cd20, I would buy cheap OPK and keep testing until you get some line then once you think the line is quite clear I would switch to clear blue then x

@MammaJ21 that’s definitely a line!! Congrats!! Mine was way way fainter than yours when I find out.

Here is my progression of lines, think I can now rule out CP. just need to rule out EP now

Wow great lines @Laurashakey !! I have some cheapies so will start doing them every other day and then I'll switch. Hopefully get the same result as you this month 🤞🏻🥰
