@Kitty0389 definitely a line, congrats! ✨

Kitty0389 · 31/05/2021 22:48

Thanks @minthumbugs @Rinylou @justwant2beamum. I'll test again tomorrow morning to be sure :-D

CycloGoose · 31/05/2021 22:54

@Kitty0389 gahhhhhhhhh BFP BFP whooooop! Congratulations girl! Better get that extension cracking! What DPO are you?

@lilacliza welcome to the mad house!

@Rinylou that's so frustrating. Did you have Covid jab this month at all? It delayed my ovulation 2 weeks. Fingers crossed there's a wee beb burrowing in for the long stay xxx

OP posts:
Rinylou · 31/05/2021 23:13

@CycloGoose Nope no jab or anything that I could point to to explain why the cycle has gone crazy!! I did think I could be having super late implantation bleeding, now it's been three days of pale pink/brown tinged discharge maybe one wipe per day, not even enough I'd call it spotting... I stopped doing opks about 3 days after my peak and then my husband was away for a week so if I did ovulate a week later than suspected/usual then there was no BDing going on...

At this rate, with my cycle thrown off, my next fertile week will be when husband and I are away with my family, sharing a room with our son... and my little sister. So may automatically be out next month before I even get there haha!

Kitty0389 · 31/05/2021 23:13

@CycloGoose OMG I know, 8months to build the damn thing!

11DPO, I think!

CycloGoose · 31/05/2021 23:19

Gahhhh @rinylou this is so frustrating!! Will he allow you to do another test tomorrow? How are you both feeling?

The baby won't know if it's finished or not! You'll be fine. Just winding you up. Really hope it's a sticky bean. 11dpo sounds great too xxx

Rinylou · 31/05/2021 23:34

@CycloGoose Husband is on high alert because I got a BFP in January which turned out to be an ectopic which ruptured at the end of February, pretty hairy stuff, I almost died and I think he's got a bit of guilt over not taking my complaints of pain and weird discharge seriously before then... so anything irregular with ANYTHING is cause for alarm if you get me??

Out of tests again now and out at the crack of dawn for another day trip (can you tell we're trying to make up for lost time cos of all the lockdowns before our little boy goes to school in September??) but will go out for a digital tomorrow night and test first thing Wednesday if AF hasn't definitively arrived... the money I've spaffed on tests this cycle is making me absolutely cringe!!

Veronika13 · 31/05/2021 23:48

Congratulations @Kitty0389 !!!

I'm 7 dpo. Hopes have started rising up now 😄 I keep cool and collected and just relaxed , until it's close to testing time.

Maybe, just maybe, this is my month? 🙏🏻

KayL1988 · 01/06/2021 06:56

Congrats @Kitty0389!!!!

@MammaJ21 how have you got on??

Rinylou · 01/06/2021 07:13

Woke up and it was like a gore fest...CD1 and a very stained undersheet! I promise you no plungers were involved....!! Almost relieved to be definitively out after the last few weeks of worry!!

kaylsd · 01/06/2021 07:39

@Kitty0389

Hi guys, Hope you’ve all had a great bank holiday weekend? Could I have your input on the pictures attached? Pretty sure there is a line here? Don’t want to get too excited if I’m imagining it!
Congratulations sweetheart that is deffo a second line, welcome to the graduate club ☀️✨🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 i had a inkling with your OPKs being positive consistently, so happy for you 🥳🥳
kaylsd · 01/06/2021 07:42

@minthumbugs @CycloGoose
thank you sweeties! Had a lovely day was so good to have some normality get dressed up and see my best friend who ive not seen since my covid wedding day in November 🙈 I'm on such a downer today as I'm working next 4 in a row why do days off go so fast 🙊 thanks about my dress too, was super comfy which meant more room for food and drink :p I stopped at a reasonable time though with me working today, today's day one back on the cutdown though got 7 pound to loose to get into that healthy BMI before end of July 🙈🙈🙈

Hope you guys had an amazing bank holiday weekend too ❤️

kaylsd · 01/06/2021 07:44

@Rinylou

Lush dress *@kaylsd* - I am also flumpesque after today!

Hi @LilacLiza - sprinkling some baby dust for you. And definitely see a line there @Kitty0389 CONGRATULATIONS!!

So another non update update....

My husband pressed me into doing a test once we got home this evening now he's realised I'm 5 days late (he doesn't realise I've been testing negative almost daily since 9dpo hahaha). Was another BFN of course. About to take a plunger to myself to get back to CD1 at this rate!!

@Rinylou I hope you get done clarity on what's going off whether it is a BFP or AF, have you had any stress factors lately which can sometimes affect ovulation? As much as cycle day 1 sometimes hurt, if it appears try and look at is as a new cycle to try something new and a new chance to get that egg 😘 ps thanks about my dress hun, was dead comfy 💖

Hi! 4dpo here and I'm symptom spotting like mad even though it's ways to early haha
Kitty0389 · 01/06/2021 08:28

@kaylsd @KayL1988
Thanks guys! Line is even fainter this morning and boobs are a lot less sore, trying not to freak out and just assume it’s because I’m still so early on! Deep breaths all around Wink

CycloGoose · 01/06/2021 08:46

@Kitty0389 differences in hydration at this stage can make a big difference and I'm keeping everything crossed for you hun.

@rinylou sounds hellish especially when you've got to get out somewhere in the morning! Hope it's a fun trip and that you have plenty of distractions as well as allowing yourself to feel all the feels you need to. CD1 can be a killer. I'm glad your husband is really on side after your horrifying experience in January. Lots of love xxx

Welcome to the madhouse @Cheesestring19

Sounds like such a lush day @kaylsd any time off always seems to fly! 7lb shouldn't be too bad but always harder when you're allowed to socialise again! So excited for your appointment!

@Veronika13 I'm 8 or 9 dpo and promised myself no symptom spotting this time but it's so hard not to! My chart is looking better than it ever has so I'm trying just to see the positives in that and seeing a healthy chart is a good step towards healthy fertility regardless of the outcome. I'm also really snivelly like hayfever but my allergies only really seem to come out when my estrogen levels are high so I'm a bit confused.

How are you doing @minthumbugs ? Decision made about the masters I guess?

@mammaj21 do we have an update yet?

Aries491 · 01/06/2021 09:11

@CycloGoose i got the pink ones, cheaper for the time being and see how I go with these! I started testing couple of days ago (got a 20 pack) and due to start my FW tomorrow so should pick it up. We have just been trying to relax a bit and BD when we feel like it although he knows I've bought these sticks lol!!

@kaylsd so pleased you have an appointment date lovely :-)

I need to catch up on everyone else's chats too, been a busy weekend of enjoying the sun! hope everyone else enjoyed their BH xx

JoeMalon3y · 01/06/2021 09:26

Hi Everyone!

Can I join this group please? My partner and I have taken the plunge to TTC...I've been cross referencing all the acronyms as so am so new to this...finally came off the pill 2nd Feb but still waiting for AF to come along so I can start tracking, feels like I've been waiting forever...also was treated for abnormal cervical cells in December...Wishing you all the luck on this journey! x

minthumbugs · 01/06/2021 19:16

@Veronika13 good luck! Hope this is it for you. When will you test?

@Kitty0389 that was the exact progression of my tests too. I can't stop. Xx

@kaylsd you'll smash the 7 pounds! Especially now you have the extra motivation with the clinic coming up (from the photo you don't need to, you're beaut but I know how that feels just wanting to be nice and healthy. X

good luck @Cheesestring19 and @JoeMalon3y! Baby dust. X

@CycloGoose decision not 100% made - I'm a bit of a pessimist so don't want to pull the trigger and pull out just yet just in case! Just trying to get through one day at a time atm. I'm so glad your cycle is returning to normal, I have a good feeling! When will you test? X

Veronika13 · 01/06/2021 23:15

Thanks everyone, makes me emotional that others are rooting for me 🥺 it means so much, makes me not feel alone. I'm 8 dpo and think I'll test on the weekend as I've a big lunch out so a test will determine whether I'll be able to have a couple of drinks 🍹

Welcome @JoeMalon3 SmileI've started trying in feb ,I've not been on the pill for years and I've PCOS

CycloGoose · 02/06/2021 07:39

Welcome @joemalon3y and of course we're rooting for you @Veronika13 xxxx that's what we are here for!

@minthumbugs I feel the same with MC being so common but, hey. Guess I decided to test today... Microscope not required!
I opened the packet and I could already see the indent so I was not looking forward to the squintathon but 🌞 We have rescued 3 bumble bees from our house this weekend 🐝🐝🐝 I have to say I've had an inkling the last 2/3 days. Just got my fingers crossed because AF due Friday. Morbidly I wanted to know incase I need to file for recurrent 🤦🏼‍♀️ but I'm excited and anxious as hell.
