@glasspaw - I wasn’t sure if you’d want to come over to our new thread lovely but I thought I’d tag you just incase

I’ve tried to remember everyone! If you notice someone I’ve missed tag them in

Group of 30 somethings TTC baby number 1!
New recruits welcome, nothing is off limits! Trust me 😂

So sorry you're feeling that way @Peachycream 😔 I totally get what you mean and never apologise for feeling how you feel we are all here to support each other as much we can. If time away makes you feel better do whatever you need, sending lots of love 💘

Hey @GingerTea333 you're not out until the witch arrives!! Keeping my fingers crossed for you as you never know :) everyone's bodies behave differently from what I'm gauging, never feels like one hat fits all in terms of dpo symptoms. 💗💗
My rhr upped yesterday but only by 1bpm and has remained at this for today so far too but I've not been religiously wearing it this cycle so who knows what's going on :) I'm just trying to remain positive as possible!

Morning ladies!

I need you eyes!!

So this morning (around 5am) I POAS, just a cheapie, thought it was blank so chucked it in the bin and went back to bed. 5 hours later I was having my 8th pee of the day (still have cystitis although now on antibiotics) and checked the test (I know, I know!) and freaked!

So grabbed my FRER....

You see what I see right?!

(Bottom is the 5am, top came up in like 1min!)

@SareBear87 🙀that’s a line!! Congrats! 🤩 How many DPO are you? X

@SareBear87 I deffo see a line! Congrats lovely :)

Omg 100% see the line! Congrats on your BFB @SareBear87 what a lucky week we’ve had!! ❤️

@PurpleCat88 I (think) 10dpo, possibly 11.

Should it not be a stronger line? I know it was my millionth pee of the day but still!

This was our 7th cycle and I had totally prepared myself for a BFN!

BFP😂*

Omg @SareBear87 that is deffo a line!!!!!

Apparently FRERs don't have indents either so I would take this as a BFP! Do you have a digi you could also use?

I am so very happy for you. I remember you saying at the start of the thread this was your 7th or 8th cycle?

Honestly seeing BFPs on this group completely feels me with happiness and gives me hope and excitement 😁

@SareBear87 another BFP!!! That’s strong at 9DPO. Mine still looked negative even at 12DPO, wasn’t until 15 that I got my BFP.

Congratulations!!!!!

@SareBear87 misread your DPO 😂 but that’s still an unmistakable positive :)

@SareBear87 - it depends when you implanted so you can’t really compare to others at the same DPO. ☺️

Sending you a virtual hug @Peachycream

As I said before I found the first cycle really hard. It became a bit too all consuming. But then after a while I became more chilled.

Also I think there's a big difference between talking about TTC and then actually doing it! It can be a bit scary! The first month we TTC I had moments of panic like 'omg am I really ready for this?'... 'maybe I need more money saved'... 'do I really want to sacrifice my sleep yet?'... I think these thoughts and emotions are normal and are really heightened in that first month TTC.

There's nothing wrong with needing a bit more time to adjust to the idea of TTC or a bit of space from all the obsessing over ovulation, LH levels and pee!

I think we all find it quite a scary and overwhelming time in our lives and it can definitely be a rollercoaster

Xxx

Thank you ladies! I'm sitting in front of my computer just staring in disbelief (working from home today! THANK GOD!).

DP has gone into work and is out with friends tonight so I'm tempted to hold off telling him until we are out for dinner tomorrow evening... 🤔

Just to echo what @Sparklingwine1 said @Peachycream I honestly know that feeling. Like I could have written your post.

My DP and I had a chat a few days ago about just stopping for a cycle or two, enjoying the summer and re-starting when I felt ready as it is so consuming. I was making myself ill and my heart was falling out of my chest on a monthly basis.

Love and hugs xx

Aw that would be lovely to tell him at dinner! I’d love to know how you end up telling him, keep us in the loop @SareBear87

Would you go as far as taking the test in your bag 😂

@Sparklingwine1 I literally feel exactly the same as your post, I think it's totally normal so love to you again @Peachycream ❤ take as much time as you need you know we will all be here.

I had some weird panic this week about how we haven't decorated some of the house properly yet and have I done this that and the other, I'm meant to be a bridesmaid next April what if I'm still weighty if I fall pregnant, will he be okay with minding the baby etc etc and my OH had to calm me down about life. He's so laid back he's almost horizontal which helps me a lot 🤣

Oh my God!! @SareBear87 congratulations... definitely a line!!! I'm so excited for you both!! Cycle twins!!!!

I'm imaging him dropping your pee stick in his soup now!

Awwww congratulations @SareBear87 !!
So lovely to see some bfps ❤

More fantastic new @SareBear87 - so happy for you.

@Peachycream look after yourself and do what feels right for you. Sending virtual hugs xx

Congratulations @SareBear87

Congrats @SareBear87 were u by any chance born 87?🤣 that's my year too 34 now I am ! I've been using cb for 11 days now as wasn't sure which day I will ovulate on and still nothing ! Think I'm going to stop once I've run out, got about 10 left and just use the cheapies ! How's everyone feelin xx

@CocoLady Yeah I am a 1987 baby, I think there are quite a few of us on here all within a year or two of each other.

Personally I think 87 was the best year, watching The Princess Bride, listening to Rick Astley not Give anyone up, collecting pound puppies, good times 🤣

Congrats @SareBear87!! Such great news!

Lots of love to you @Peachycream and everyone else who is finding this tough (me included). Take whatever time you need. In a weird way I’m glad to know it’s not just me who struggles even though I obviously wouldn’t wish these feelings on anyone. I am super glad I joined this thread because when I did at I was at a low point and feeling really lonely and it’s so nice to have people to talk about it all with.

Congratulations @sarebear87! I'm 33 so not far off you either. Really happy for you!

I've been mentally preparing myself for a BFN this month, because I was getting quite stressed about it being our last chance to ttc this year. Feeling much better about it now, and this FW has definitely been more relaxed as a result (for both of us). I got my peak this morning so will be in the tww tomorrow!

Thinking of you @peachycream, this is certainly not an easy process.
