@AlmostLondoner thank you! I just want to know now! xx

Willow1982 · 23/05/2021 08:54

@Twochews78 I would have done the same, in fact I am doing that, as soon as AF arrives I’ll be booking it, I’m glad you postponed, as I mentioned I’m no expert at all, the main thing that puts me off is the side affect of a temp/ fever...I read that can be bad, so if we are sadly not this month, then get booked, if we are, which I hope we are then it may have to wait a while, you testing today? Fingers crossed for you, I’m feeling still chilled about it, but I know next week when the afternoon boredom during work hits I’ll be reaching for the tests, I think I used up most of my supply with crazy early testing last month, so I know I don’t have many to waste this month now, my app predicts AF by end of next week, but that would be shorter than 2 weeks from ovulation, which worries me a little, I think by next Sunday I will know were I stand!xx

Willow1982 · 23/05/2021 09:02

@Twochews78 sorry just read again, sorry about the test today, your not out till AF shows, I’ll have everything crossed for you, it’s so annoying isn’t it when you know you feel different but still get the white tests! How many dpo are you now? Hopefully the day AF is due (tomorrow) you get your BFP xx
@AlmostLondoner I see something I hope it gets much stronger xx
@OliviaGrace15 I see a nice line there, congratulations xx🎉

OliviaGrace15 · 23/05/2021 09:07

@Willow1982 thank you ❤️ also I feel like maybe you're my good luck charm because I've always said if I have another daughter she will be called Willow 😊

Confused678866 · 23/05/2021 09:10

@OliviaGrace15 Ooh I see it! Congratulations ☺️ xx

@AlmostLondoner I think I can see a vv faint line! Xx

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 09:18

@OliviaGrace15 def can’t argue with that one - congrats 🎉

@AlmostLondoner I think I see a vv faint line 🤞🏻

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 09:22

@Twochews78 and @Willow1982. Hmm I have my vaccine booked too early June. My app is telling me to test 31 May so think I’ll just see what happens. I’m not expecting to fall pregnant this cycle so should be fine. I should be getting Pfizer or moderna as under 40 - both of which are advised if pregnant. I can’t be sure ofc but I think having the vaccine is possibly better than catching covid if pregnant (trials showing increased chance complications and still birth with covid) but I also know it hasn’t be trialled so i can see why people are concerned 😬

Twochews78 · 23/05/2021 09:31

@Willow1982 I think I’m 13 but my app is saying 11! And because my periods have been 32, 25, 24 I’m really not sure! Just gonna keep testing and hope that af doesn’t arrive. I checked the guidance yesterday too and it said to consult a health care professional if pregnant before getting vaccine. xx

@Sunshine8888 I’ve had my first and it’s the Oxford, I had it before I started trying that month because I read that a high temperature can affect early pregnancy. I definitely want the vaccine as I’m asthmatic but I’d rather get some more information if I’m in the early stages particularly because I’ve had the Oxford which hasn’t had good reviews and not the best one for pregnant women.

1stimer16 · 23/05/2021 09:44

@OliviaGrace15 deffo getting stronger, congrats and fingers crossed all goes well!

@AlmostLondoner can see a faint line, hopefully gets stronger, will you test again tomorrow?

Emsjourney · 23/05/2021 09:46

@OliviaGrace15 that's positive!! 🎉
@AlmostLondoner definitely retest tomorrow or Tuesday 💖

So it's my month month doing bbt. Can anyone with more experience check my chart please?

AlmostLondoner · 23/05/2021 10:02

I will retest tomorrow and see. I still have clearblue waiting for me but I'll try that one only if Ihave stronger lines. It's been this faint since Thursday,keeping me in limbo 🤦‍♀️🙏🙏

J0lly · 23/05/2021 10:39

5dpo, absolutely no symptoms. Second cycle ttc. I got my second vaccine on Monday and felt awful the same time as positive opk.

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 10:50

@Twochews78 ahh yes not sure about Oxford, def do whatever is best for you, sounds like a sensible way to look at it x

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 11:04

Right so I stopped breastfeeding months ago and milk dried up. My boobs have been really sore the last couple of weeks and in the shower this morning I noticed dried milk on my nipples and when I squeezed milk came out both... my hormones clearly are all over the place 😬

sylvie1001 · 23/05/2021 11:30

@AlmostLondoner I can definitely see a vvfl in the first test! Fingers crossed for you! 🤞🏻
@OliviaGrace15 that’s great your line is progressing it’s very visible on that pic! Congrats ☺️
My frer line has become darker but I’m still apprehensive after last month when they started to fade at 17dpo... although my 12dpo frer is much darker than last months 16dpo so I’m hoping it a good since and this one sticks 🙏🏻
I’m due to get my vaccine letter any day. What’s the latest advice for early pregnancy and the vax? Pfizer over Oxford?

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 12:09

@sylvie1001 that sounds really positive

Re vaccine, my nhs friend sent me the latest guidance - here’s the link

sylvie1001 · 23/05/2021 12:36

@Sunshine8888 thank you so much ! That’s really informative! ☺️

gimmeavino · 23/05/2021 13:08

Happy Sunday all - lovely seeing some faint lines fingers crossed 🤞🏼

I'm on CD33, had AF symptoms for about a week, nips hurting today, face has broken out- still BFNs...just want AF now so I can get on with it!

Last DTD on the 6th (we needed a break 😂) which is when ov should have been but never got positive opks for the whole month, so according to calculations I can stop testing and count myself out on Tuesday

Sleepyquest · 23/05/2021 13:52

I'm totally imagining lines where there aren't any, is that normal? Sad

OliviaGrace15 · 23/05/2021 14:14

@gimmeavino happy Sunday! 😊 I hope you get your bfp very soon, your symptoms sound similar to mine and I got my bfp this morning so 🤞 X

@Sleepyquest totally normal I think, I was doing exactly the same, how many dpo are you? X

Sleepyquest · 23/05/2021 14:25

@OliviaGrace15 I don't know for certain but I'd say 12 dpo today! Not looking good

Bundaberg84 · 23/05/2021 14:29

Congratulations to all with BFPs! So exciting! ❤️

I'm 9dpo today and I tried not to symptom spotting but here we are. Like you @gimmeavino my face broke out, especially at my chin. I'm tired, so tired, I slept 9 hours but am still knackered. And dull cramps like before AF but it's way too early for that. And, TMI probably but I had a white, creamy discharge yesterday evening, like I had to go to the toilet because I felt it.

Willow1982 · 23/05/2021 14:55

@OliviaGrace15 aww that’s really lovely, it’s a lovely name isn’t it, it’s not my actual name, but I really like it for a girl too!! Maybe we will both end up with a baby Willow xx 💕
@Twochews78 it’s so hard isn’t it when your not sure on days, I havnt ever been sure on dpo I’m not sure still this month, I got peaks from Sunday afternoon - Tuesday then you can’t tell exactly when ovulation is, iv just gone for a guess of Monday!! I really hope you get a BFP soon xx🍀
As I say with the vaccine I’m no expert and I wasn’t sure what to do, but Iv decided I will get the vaccine when AF shows up, if I’m lucky enough to get my BFP I will call GP to find out what’s best, I think Iv read they advise you to wait until your past the 12wk mark nowadays, but then some must get it without knowing they are pregnant and are fine, I think it’s a personal decision for everyone and theres no wrong answer xx

Sunshine8888 · 23/05/2021 15:22

@Bundaberg84, I just looked back at my symptoms when I fell pregnant with my 1st. My main symptoms were sore breasts, backaches, taste (something I usually liked tasted awful) and discharge - very wet and watery. I noted it because it was unusual and like you had to go to the toilet to check as felt very wet. I will keep everything crossed for you 🤞🏻

Bundaberg84 · 23/05/2021 15:23

@Sunshine8888 thank you lovely! XX
