TTC - Ovulation

[MrsRosaline]

Hi!

I have been TTC this month. I got a flashing smiley face on the clearblue OPKS this morning so all is looking good! I would love to talk to anyone else who is also TTC this month... I am currently driving my husband mad as it's all I can talk about. 😊

Awww amazing @wannabeamummysobad. Congratulations. Delighted for you. Wishing you a healthy pregnancy xx

Ps @wannabeamummysobad you mentioned you RHR. If you have a chart would you mind posting it?

@QueenLagertha I was only charting using my Fitbit sense. I've attached the last months HR in the form it gives.
I'm fairly active and pre TTC I'd average a RHR of 53bpm (l joke I'm an athlete) but my average is now 57bpm.

If I get a moment today I could do one in excel so you can see a few cycles.

Key dates
28 July- started last period (30th July finished, 3days)

1st August- high on CB OPK
4th August- peak on CB OPK

Thank you @wannabeamummysobad my RHR has been higher than ever.

I couldn't resist. I've just did a FRER. 10dpo

@QueenLagertha thank you so much! It's a long ways to go but we are so happy!!

Just realised we only got married 5 weeks ago. So much is happening and I feel truly blessed x

@QueenLagertha congratulations!!!!!!!

I guess, this really is a lucky group. 🤞🏼🤞🏼to sticky beans and bring on April 2022 x

Awww lovely 🥰 we conceived DS within weeks of getting married too. If this one sticks it will be due on DHs birthday 30th April.
I'm getting ahead of myself! Afraid to get excited yet.
I feel a bit off since yesterday. And hardly
slept the past two nights as my heart feels like it's racing. This is my Fitbit chart. Def something it it.

That's so sweet that it's on DH birthday time.

Our baby is predicted 26th April 2022. Our wedding was initially booked 24th April 2021 so we'll 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 have a baby on our (could have been) wedding anniversary.

I'm sooo happy!

@wannabeamummysobad so exciting 🥰 I bet your DH is over the moon too.
Dont know how I'm going to concentrate today at work.
DS was an April baby too. There'll be a 4 year gap if all works out 🤞🏼

Hoping for some more BFPs on this thread 🙏🏻

@wannabeamummysobad congratulations!!!!!!!!!! That's fantastic news!!!!! I was thinking of you this morning!!!!!!!!!!! So pleased for you and great you got a non ambiguous test!!!!!!! ❤️

@newtolineofduty thank you! I was so fretting about doing it and had geared myself to be disappointed. When I realised I could see the line without my glasses I was so happy. Keeping everything crossed the little one sticks.

Keeping everything crossed for you too x

Did you stare at it waiting for the result for 3 mins @wannabeamummysobad!?

After I'd posted I realised I'd missed your last sentence about telling us before DH! That's brill! 😂😂😂

@wannabeamummysobad Eeeee! Congratulations!! Xx

I was too scared to - I set a 5second timer to hold the test in my FMU and a 3min timer to wait. I started looking but as it's my first time POAS I was get so stressed so kept shifting between the stick and my phone.

Absolutely nerve racking.

Honestly, it made sense to tell you first. DH was asleep- I woke him up by showing the stick. He responded "wow, I can see it without my glasses on🤣" . He's now reading up on what I can and can't eat/drink and buying books so he can best support me.

When will I feel calm? I guess I should tell myGP? I need to do some research too I guess 🤣🤣🥰 x

@QueenLagertha Congratulations!!! 🎉🎉

First thing I did @wannabeamummysobad was book in a private viability scan for 7 weeks! X

Omg congratulations @QueenLagertha and @wannabeamummysobad !!! I haven't tested yet, and i have already been to the toilet this morning so was going to do it tomorrow morning! You guys are making me wanna do it! I'm 11DPO.

@QueenLagertha I've just realised I TOTALLY missed your post!!!! Congratulations! How exciting!!!!!! Hopefully this is a lucky month! X

@newtolineofduty thanks for that. I'll look to book one in as well. Given me and 🍷 are besties when I show up not drinking everyone will guess i am pregnant so doing a viability scan will put me at ease.

@MrsRosaline, hold your nerve. Will you test tomorrow or Wednesday?

This is so exciting 💕💕

@wannabeamummysobad @MrsRosaline I think if I had some frers in I'd be tempted to test tonight but I only have clear blue ones. I don't really want to use those ones though and Amazon frers wouldn't come until Thursday! X

@newtolineofduty you could always go to the shop... I do have some FRERS but think I'll wait until tomorrow morning. The thing that's held me off testing is the disappointment factor!

@MrsRosaline @newtolineofduty I completely understand how you feel- I was the same tbh.

I picked up FRER pack of 2 in between house viewing on Saturday.

Keeping everything crossed for you both x

Thanks everyone. I can't quite believe it yet. Have ordered more FRERs from Amazon to make sure line darkens over next few days.
I'm starting to feel rough already though. I forgot how sick I felt throughout first trimester last time. It started this early too.

Can't wait for you all to test. Baby dust to all xx

My FRERs are coming tomorrow from Amazon. I'm in NI though

@wannabeamummysobad congrats 😊 I'm now 10dpo and got some lower pains which I normally get for AF but had a few days last week so not sure when to test🤷🏻‍♀️
