Anyone else 3dpo? When do you suggest the best time to test is? I have some frer’s and some ic’s and I honestly think I won’t be able to get through the weekend without testing 😫🤣

@feliznavidad2 I’m exactly the same! Had the most intense period ever and now seems to have completely stopped? So god knows what’s going on there. I’m enjoying a couple of drinks this weekend too in the sun, have to find the positives in not being pregnant eh 🤷🏽‍♀️

@Bundaberg84 yes please update us! X

Hi you lovelies thanks gor thinking of me! What a rollercoaster. AF arrived today, 2 days late. I'm a bit sad of course, it would have been such a great timing. We could have told all family in our holidays, after 12 weeks. Well here's to another month. This time no testing until overdue (did a test today and was negative. AF not in full force yet but will be in the next hours as usual...)

Bundaberg84 · 29/05/2021 18:17

@extrababydust123 @feliznavidad2
Okay. AF didn't really show up (yet). We have a BBQ so I decided to test again, after BFN two days ago. I'm now 1 day late. Tested before dinner, and it shows a faint line. Tested again, DH can see it too. I'm now confused. Won't have any drinks, just to be on the safe side. What's going on? I didn't want to be on that rollercoaster.

feliznavidad2 · 29/05/2021 20:16

@Bundaberg84 😳

Well, it's probably positive if you've got two lines lovely. Congratulations! X

extrababydust123 · 29/05/2021 20:37

@Bundaberg84 omg!! Could’ve been implantation possibly? Aw I really hope this is it for you 🥺 update us in the morning please!! I have everything crossed for you and go easy on the drinks 🤣 ❤️

Bundaberg84 · 29/05/2021 21:01

@extrababydust123 and @feliznavidad2 I don't think it's implantation bleeding, as I'm already 15dpo. And it didn't start bleeding at all, just a bit spotting when wiping, nothing on my pad... So weird! I will definitely update tomorrow ❤️ we're having non alcoholic sparkling wine, thankfully our friends we're having bbq with decided to drink less alcohol ;)

Emsjourney · 29/05/2021 23:55

@FinnsMammy ahh that's so lovely to hear! ❤️

So temp did a big drop this morning, cramps, spotting and usual pms, due on tomorrow and it's a definite BFN for me this month. So on to next month x

feliznavidad2 · 01/06/2021 09:59

How are you @Bundaberg84 ? Xx

extrababydust123 · 01/06/2021 16:20

How is everyone getting on? I’m on cd7 and a few days away from my fertile window. It all comes around so fast I’m absolutely dreading the TWW again 😂 but trying not to put too much pressure on or even really think about things too much, this cycle is going to be very chilled (I say now🤣)

OP posts:
feliznavidad2 · 01/06/2021 19:45

Hi @extrababydust123 😊 how are you?

All ok here. CD5. Also feeling calm, cool and collected - for another few days at least. 😆 We can pretend to be chilled TTCers this cycle... she says. 😛

extrababydust123 · 01/06/2021 22:21

@feliznavidad2 I’m good thank you for asking 😁 and yay! Let’s see how long the cool calm and collected lasts 🤣🤣 I’m enjoying relaxing before we’re dtd every waking moment in fertile week haha!

@Bundaberg84 any updates lovely? X

OP posts:
Bundaberg84 · 01/06/2021 22:41

@extrababydust123 I still have light brown spotting but BFP since Sunday! I'm still in disbelief though. I have an early appointment at my ob/gyn on Thursday and see how it goes.

extrababydust123 · 01/06/2021 22:51

@Bundaberg84 I feel spotting and even bleeding is very common in the first 12 weeks so don’t worry too much. Congratulations ❤️ I hope everything goes well and would love it if you kept us updated 😁🤞🏽

OP posts:
feliznavidad2 · 02/06/2021 07:42

So pleased for you @Bundaberg84 - yes please do keep us updated. x

Bundaberg84 · 02/06/2021 08:46

@extrababydust123 thank you lovely! The positive thing is that I'm further along than I was in February. And I don't seem to have any spotting while sleeping and resting. I think I will have to take it easy :)

feliznavidad2 · 04/06/2021 20:36

How is everyone? Happy Friday! 🍷

ArBird · 04/06/2021 22:20

Hey all! First time posting!
I'm on my first cycle and 4dpo today. My temps and heart rate is up which I hope is a good sign! Driving myself mad with googling symptoms 😅

What do you do to stop yourself from going crazy? The temptation to just start testing is unreal!!

feliznavidad2 · 05/06/2021 10:09

Hi @ArBird and welcome!

It's so bloody hard not to symptom spot, I felt really odd in the first week of TWW last cycle, and was even sick one day (in hindsight I think my body isn't used to these surging hormones as felt quite stable on the pill whereas now I'm getting all sorts of symptoms that I never had before).

I'm going to be honest, I don't measure my temp or RHR so not sure what it means but fingers are crossed for you. Keep us updated!

I'm CD10 here, last month I ovulated around CD16-17 so it's nearly time... 👀 🍆

ArBird · 05/06/2021 11:10

@feliznavidad2 fingers crossed for you!

I think I'm going to do all I can to hold out as close to my predicted period as possible! I've purposefully not brought test strips for this reason! Grin I have two FRERs on their way today in preparation for next week!

I will keep you posted Star

extrababydust123 · 07/06/2021 13:15

Hey @ArBird! How many dpo are you now? And have you tested yet? 😬 good luck to you! 🤞🏽

And @feliznavidad2 sorry I’ve only just seen this, I find I spend less time on MN until I’m in the TWW 🤣 and today I’ve just hit peak on my opk’s so I’ll be in the TWW in the next couple of days! I’m feeling really calm and positive this time round so let’s hope things stay that way 😊 where abouts are you in your cycle? X

OP posts:
ArBird · 07/06/2021 21:24

@extrababydust123 I'm 7dpo today. RHR is still up too, and Im finding new things to track! Haha! I'm out of control!
I've decided to test on 9dpo with a FRER to see whether there is anything and then try my best to wait until my predicted period date if it's negative.

Fingers crossed for you for this time!

feliznavidad2 · 07/06/2021 21:34

Good luck for Wednesday's POAS @ArBird

@extrababydust123 glad you're feeling positive. Enjoy your fertile window. 🎉 I'm only CD12 but my OPK showed a (rather unexpected premature) 😳 high this am so am curious as to whether that was the peak, it had gone down a bit this afternoon but I guess tomorrow am will tell. DTD this eve just incase, and will be errm ensuring all bases are covered over the next few days. ☺️

extrababydust123 · 07/06/2021 23:28

@ArBird eek that’s exciting! Keep us updated please I have everything crossed for you! 😁

@feliznavidad2 the same happened to me last month! And this month is arrived on CD13 but I was prepared and have been dtd all week, last cycle we only managed once or twice because it was so unexpected! So hopefully we covered our bases this time 🥰 happy bd’ing!! 🤣 x

OP posts:
extrababydust123 · 08/06/2021 14:27

I have the worst ovulation cramps and bloating today which I never usually have! And I had the darkest test line on an opk yesterday than I ever have before. Don’t want to jinx anything but hopefully these are all good signs that this cycle will be the one 😂

OP posts:
Bundaberg84 · 08/06/2021 14:59

@extrababydust123 fingers crossed!! Smile
and @feliznavidad2 happy bd'ing Wink
