@RockyisMYRhino I would test and tell your partner maybe 🙄 or check if you can't drink one of those non - alcoholic spirits? Fingers crossed!

@sylvie1001 have you resisted? My morning test was BFN again 😅 might be still early but I think I am out this month.

Ttcbn2 · 20/05/2021 06:38

Thanks for the add!

I’m around 11dpo, took a test this morning and it was negative :(

Currently symptom spotting which I know I shouldn’t but I’ve had on and off cramp since around 6dpo, really bad headaches, extreme tiredness, a really dry mouth, heartburn.. probably all just in my head of the fact af is due in a few days Hmm x

mikadolado · 20/05/2021 06:59

Hiya, I posted on the last thread. I am out this month, done 3 tests, all negative, but haven't come properly on my period (just dribs and drabs, sorry tmi!) but think I will come on today. Just checking in as I would love to be included on the next thread/for my next cycle. Thankyou.

CTMcG · 20/05/2021 07:28

@Lollipop25 thanks for the tag into the new thread💜

I had cramps and lower back pain yesterday and it felt so similar to oncoming af that i have definitely ruled out my first cycle ttc#1, just waiting for af to show her ugly head!

I have had sooo much CM, going from white to clear & watery the last week but yesterday there was so much that it want just when i wiped (tmi)

It could be what happens before every impending af but i have just not noticed before as ive never tried to get pregnant before this month! Lol

dunkedbiscuit · 20/05/2021 07:51

Thanks @Lollipop25 x

gimmeavino · 20/05/2021 07:51

Thanks for starting the new thread ☺️

AF symptoms hit me with a vengeance yesterday - CD30 today and BFNs so sure she's round the corner.

As I didn't pick up ovulation this month I'm gonna be ON IT for next cycle - gonna try grapefruit juice/Q10/pregnacare as apparently they're supposed to encourage more EWCM and regulate things? Who knows but worth a go and I just want an obvious ovulation!

Have a great day all

Countingchicks · 20/05/2021 08:05

I'm out, AF with a vengeance this morning two days late (changed username)

Bundaberg84 · 20/05/2021 08:59

@Lollipop25 thanks for the add!

@RockyisMYRhino I'm 6dpo today and I'm going to a bbq on Friday. While I'm in the "drink (moderately) till it's pink" camp, I will not drink on Friday. And since it would be very obvious if I decline, I decided to have a cystitis and I don't want to take antibiotics yet so I shouldn't drink and also avoid citrus drinks. I think I will get through with that.

RockyisMYRhino · 20/05/2021 09:11

Thanks for the advice ladies. Think I'm going to tell my DH, get a test tomorrow and see what happens then. Might have to 'be on antibiotics'. Fingers crossed for a BFP!

sylvie1001 · 20/05/2021 10:46

@RockyisMYRhino good luck with testing tomorrow! 😊
@AlmostLondoner you’re not out yet, you might not have implanted yet- think positive 😁 I didn’t test this morning but I’m twitching to poas...I have a feeling I’ll give in either tonight or tomorrow morning!

AlmostLondoner · 20/05/2021 11:02

@sylvie1001 I tested again and I swear I see a line (super faint,visible when I put my phone further away 😅) it appeared in time not after.

@AlmostLondoner ooh exciting!! Have you got an app that lets you adjust the contrast etc of the image? 😬

1stimer16 · 20/05/2021 11:07

@AlmostLondoner how many DPO are you if you don’t mind me asking :)

AlmostLondoner · 20/05/2021 11:07

@sylvie1001 I do, not sure how to adjust it to see it more. Negative filter doesn't work on it yet

AlmostLondoner · 20/05/2021 11:08

@1stimer16 7 or 8, not sure

Twinkles18 · 20/05/2021 14:19

So I'm 10dpo according to premom app..just went to bathroom and there was a bit of blood when I wiped. Hoping it's just implantation bleed and not AF showing her ugly head! Premom says period's due on Tuesday, Natural Cycles says it's due tomorrow so who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️ guessing game at this point. Anyone any advice/experience on this?

WantStickyBean · 20/05/2021 14:23

Going to tag in a new thread to see if I can cheer myself up a bit. CD2, cycle 2 trying for DC2. Conceived DD in first cycle so having an unsuccessful first attempt had kicked off all sorts of totally irrational worries and I need to work out how to chill the hell out.

Ordered some CB advance sticks for this cycle as the OPKs I used last month are out of date.

Eyedontknow · 20/05/2021 14:51

Well I didn't take my own advice and bought a first response test this morning on my way to work. I felt inspired by the massive headache I woke up with. I guess not being irritated with my friend was a pregnancy sign for me as test was positive! I wasn't really expecting it to show anything as my period isn't due until next week.

AlmostLondoner · 20/05/2021 14:55

@Eyedontknow congrats ❤️❤️❤️

Lollipop25 · 20/05/2021 15:05

Congrats @Eyedontknow 🤗👏👏👏

@Willow1982 I know we could have kept each other on the straight and narrow!

I think I’m going to test later, I think I’ll be 11dpo. Although I feel crampy today like my period is coming.

I’ve found temping really interesting!! It’s worth a wee nosey. xx

sylvie1001 · 20/05/2021 15:10

@Eyedontknow congrats! 🥰
@WantStickyBean I also conceived dc1 straight away and not really trying so I’m also finding the ttc process frustrating this time around. I’m cycle #4, came off pill 1st jan, not convinced this is my month either after a cp last month. What will your age gap be? I’m 5 years older than ttc dc1

Twochews78 · 20/05/2021 15:25

@Eyedontknow congratulations!! xx

WantStickyBean · 20/05/2021 15:26

Congratulations @Eyedontknow!

@sylvie1001 DD's only 18m, though I was 32 now 34. And I'm still bfing which I don't think is likely to help!

DH is keen to be relaxed about it but I just don't think that's an option for me Blush. Are you temping/using OPKs?

1stimer16 · 20/05/2021 15:51

@Eyedontknow congratulations! Although now I’m tempted to test as well!
