[quote Fifi1086]@lucea87 so am I! I am gonna regret saying this out loud but I just feel pregnant, which was totally different to the last two cycles. I need to slap some sense into myself [/quote]
🤞🏼 fingers crossed!!!

@lucea87

Ok here I am being a crazy person. I swear to god I am SO thirsty today!! I don't know if it's sub conscience as I've tried to cut down today so I have a strong wee tomorrow morning but I've drank loads cos I feel constantly thirsty and I'm sure a couple of the ladies in the previous groups said they were thirsty when they got their BFP's!
Ekk that sounds positive I know your testing day is Friday I think from what I can previously remember? All the signs looking good sweetheart!!

@MiamiBeach104

apologies if I'm hijacking the chat line.

I had a mc a couple of weeks ago at nearly 12w (not planned) and can't think of anything else except from getting pregnant! I'm waiting for my cycle to properly start TTC but I'm afraid I'm getting obsessive with it.

I'm trying to take it easy until my period comes but already bought OTK and keep on reading everything about conception, pregnancy etc. have dreams related to it. it doesn't help that my best friend just had a baby and another friend annouced her pregnancy 2 days afetr my mc.

how do you keep calm and don't let it rule your life completely? Confused

I'm sorry for your loss sweetheart, I know it's such a big thing for yourself and your loved one to go through and it may take a toll on yourself both emotional and physical. Maybe try keep your mind occupied with things you enjoy to do for me time? Long walks? Hot baths and face mask pamper nights? Read a book to shut off from social media (my ultimate fav thing to do as every time I go on Facebook there's a new baby announcement) or just write your emotions or whatever you want to get off your chest on here; we don't judge ❤️🌈

@MammaJ21

Welcome hunny to the mad house!

Only kidding we are sophisticated graceful ladies who love dr google & dog photos & for my personal favourite, a good what the heck are my inlaws thinking chat 😂🙈

How many months have you been TTC? What do you plan on doing different for this cycle :)?

kaylsd · 18/03/2021 19:32

@KatieLooLa

Started taking OPK tests, been a little bizarre as looked like lines were getting darker but today’s is barely there, could be due to the pregnacare vitamins I’ve been taking. Life in isolation is getting to me a bit, can’t wait for Saturday so I can be free! Ares getting fed up of not getting a proper walk beside going around the garden x
The same has happened to me this month, litterally got all symptoms of ovulation around when I was expected, hit a peak but not fully then today thought right I'll test for one more time as previous days have been reducing then bamn 80% reading, I'm like ehhhhhhh!!
CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 19:34

@lizzie1302 have you tested? How many dpo?

I've just had a positive test and I thought I had my whole period so I'm not really the best to ask 🤷🏼‍♀️ It's not congratulations yet though as I have to go to the EPU for testing.

@kaylsd I've got the feels for you getting a BFP when you test in a week or two. April bfp, August 5 month scan ✨✨✨🤞🤞🤞

Everything crossed for you guys @Fifi1086 and @lucea87

They do say that sometimes you just know!

CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 19:39

Hope your hot tub is still pumping @kaylsd ! You totally crack me up!
Our SIL is still waiting - think due date is tomorrow. Hope your BIL has been behaving himself and bought you a fantastic birthday present.
If not, take solace in knowing you chose the right brother because your DH and your mum were so amazing for your birthday.

PS. Love Mabel in her glasses xxx

I still have a feeling for you to come out with the best result in this one, can feel it in my mystic womb ;) It's such a lovely thought of having a BFP in April (my fertility reading the big lengthy one about grandchildren said April conception or April due so we shall see)

Ive gave myself a mental talk to my womb tonight to say heyup love I don't know what your game is making OPKS do the Hokey Cokey but you can pack it in 😂😂😂 I'm hoping it does the trick, my temp hasn't rised enough but it's still above cover line so I haven't the foggiest if I have ovulated or not this month! What will be will be, on other notes I feel like this might be a inside view of what's going off to me right now 😂😂😂 TMI but funny in my eyes :p

Lizzie1302 · 18/03/2021 19:40

@CycloGooseyclo sorry if you've already said what your story was but what we're your symptoms and did you have a period? I'm so happy for you, good luck to you!!!
I am 12dpo which is also the day I'm due AF didn't test this morning as was expecting af but didn't come until there was a tiny bit of blood when I wiped earlier. I've not really had any symptoms this month I don't think xx

CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 19:51

@kaylsd 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣💕 that image. What ARE you like! I can just imagine you saying that 🤣 I remember the reading! It was amazing and your others said August but that could be the 5 month scan. Just keep doing the baby dance!

minthumbugs · 18/03/2021 20:03

Good luck tomorrow morning @lucea87 let us all know how it goes! X

CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 20:05

God it's a long one @Lizzie1302 and still quite raw but here goes!

We're 7 months in, I had a 23 day cycle but Femometer reckons I normally have 11 day luteal phase which sounds same as you.

On 4dpo I had a teeny tiny spot of pink. Then on 9 and 10 I had light spotting some pink and creamy some brown and watery (this is not normal for me). Then on 12dpo I got what I thought was AF. Bright red + clots. It was probably 1.5 days of 'flow' but at the normal amount for my AF and then I stopped but had more spotting.

I said I was going to buy OvuSense as soon as I saw red and I did!

THEN a couple of days ago, so 17dpo, I had some ewcm style stuff but a little brown am and then a little pink pm. I thought to myself that maybe I was ovulating really early so took an LH test and it was a blinder so I thought omg I best do HCG. I literally had about 2ml of urine as well because I only thought to test after I'd already wiped 🤦🏼‍♀️ But it was positive so I did ALL my different cheapy brands and they all came back the same.

I did a cheapy test before but I didn't see a positive and then obviously stopped testing because I got my period as far as I was concerned.

I had to ring gp because I was going mad and she's referred me to EPU to do a load of testing to see if anything still there but it's not until Tuesday.

Meanwhile I'm freaking out because my BBT is really low. So I'm not happy/excited yet because I'm sure it's not really real and I had early loss.

Oh and still positive but lines not getting darker and CBD says 1-2 weeks which seems too low which would corroborate my no more bean theory.

Okay I think that's it XXX Really hope you get your BFP xxx

Lizzie1302 · 18/03/2021 20:27

@CycloGooseyclo awww I'm sorry to hear that, you never know it might be a positive! But I understand you not wanting to get too excited it's a lot to take in for yourself, thankyou so much for sharing, please keep us updated!

I feel AF will show tomorrow I just don't know my cycle is usually 27 days and today's the 28th day so we shall see, its just thrown me a bit with this spotting xx

lucea87 · 18/03/2021 20:46

@minthumbugs

Good luck tomorrow morning *@lucea87* let us all know how it goes! X
Thank you! It's gonna be a BFN, I just know it. But I've got enough tests to get my through until AF and then some 😂😂
lucea87 · 18/03/2021 21:21

Following on from my post yesterday about my BBT....I told a lie! I was just looking at my app again and I do have interpreted (hadn't spotted it!) for my BBT - this looks much less messy but also looks like it's going's down.

els10 · 18/03/2021 21:24

I'm place marking so I can stick around to see all these BFP's roll in over the next month or two!!
Xxxxx

minthumbugs · 18/03/2021 21:28

@lucea87 I was thinking about this earlier... this is probably just me because I'm mental ha! I've only been temping the last 3 nights but it's brought back memories of when I did it years ago. I have such bad quality sleeps when I'm temping and I tend to roll over in the middle of the night and panic and take my temperature right there and then without bothering to check the time and it turns out it's like 2am lol. And then my temp gets thrown off if I take it in the morning because my sleep's been disrupted. Could it be anything like that?

Last time DP used to complain about the constant beeping of me waking up several times in the night and taking my temp hahaha. I think I need to start checking my watch in future Blush

Slinks8113 · 18/03/2021 21:35

@minthumbugs I'm the same! It disrupts my sleep in the TWW! And hubby says that bloody click and then beep beep beep! He said it's like having road runner in the bed 😂

KatieLooLa · 18/03/2021 21:44

@kaylsd
Only done 3 tests, so maybe tomorrow they’ll start getting darker again. I was thinking about doing 2 per day but it’s probably best to stick with doing one as soon as I wake.

In other news I bought a conception reading from pregnancyunicorn (saw someone had done one on the last thread, can’t remember who though) hopefully the reading will be correct! 🙏
Good luck to everyone and hopefully BFP’s all round!🤞🏻 X

CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 22:09

That was me @KatieLooLa did you just get conception or children prediction? I did both and if this sticks it will be right but the Jade Roberts one would be wrong. Let us know when it comes in and what it says!! 🤞🤞🤞

CycloGoose · 18/03/2021 22:19

The spotting I had drove me bonkers @lizzie1302 but it got my my first positive test whether it sticks around or not. Everything crossed but it does sound possible.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst ladies.

@lucea87 I've almost convinced myself I'm going to wake up to your positive frer in the morning! How long is your LP normally? CD10 still early.

I don't understand the smoothed version. Mine looks nothing like what I've typed in. But I am hoping bbt is a lie for me anyway 🤣

@slinks8113 and @minthumbugs I'm totally the same with the waking up and then the bleeping. Mine isn't backlit either so I'm always trying to light it up with my watch. That's why I bought the damned OvuSense which I'm now praying was a massive waste of money!

In other news, my cervix seems to have gone soft so I'm starting to wonder if it might be real.

Iloveoreos · 18/03/2021 22:20

@lucea87 are u testing tomorrow? Xx all the best hun

KatieLooLa · 18/03/2021 22:26

@CycloGoose just the conception one, might do the other one another time.
Think I’m due to get it on Tuesday but not sure on time difference so might be Wednesday morning.
Hopefully yours will be a sticky baby! X

Sunshinexx95 · 18/03/2021 23:05

Hi guys I hope I can join you ❤️
I'm trying for baby#2 and I have a 6 month old baby girl already.
It took us almost 6 months to get pregnant with her and we thought we want her to have a brother or sister soon. So we started Tcc early.
My ovulation test showed positive yesterday and today so we dtd twice.
I don't have high hopes to conceive first month ttc.. :)

lucea87 · 19/03/2021 06:54

Welcome @Sunshinexx95

Girls I feel sick as. I'm terrified to POAS 😂

@Slinks8113 @minthumbugs same with my OH for the beeping 😂😂

Slightly down again this am not optimised looks steady and above cover line still. Cramps been more AF like yesterday & this morning too. I'm now on day 7 of boobs killing though even if it has been up and down in terms of severity.

@CycloGoose my LP is normally petty much bang on 14 days xx
