Cycle 2 of TTC - anyone else?

[Itsjustme20]

So I'm still awaiting AF (currently 13/14DPO according to my apps but I had no peak LH this month). I've taken a test on 11/12DPO and it was a BFN so it's just a waiting game for AF now I think.

Anyone else amazed when reading everything on here? Firstly the abbreviations and also how many things affect conception? 😩 I'm already petrified it'll never happen.

I'm 26, DH is 27. My BMI is over 50 (I'm working on this but it's a slow process) and have been pregnant before when BMI was around 53 but we had to have a medical termination 😭 It's taken me 2 years to get over it and we've now decided it's the right time to TTC and we've had the 'ok' that it's safe from the doctors.

Anyway, sorry for the waffling!

Anyone else about to start cycle 2? 🥰

[quote hoola23]@MissLB I'm pretty sure it's just a dodgy test. Way too early for anything to show up- serves me right for testing this early but I never learn 🤣[/quote]
I've just inverted your picture using an app. Definitely something there! 🎉🎉

@Itsjustme20 thank you!! I did another one this morning and it's very negative so was defo a dodgy test. Was fun while it lasted though 🤣🤣🤣

Ah no!! 😩 I had a couple of IC tests show up positive but the FRER was very negative 😩 It's heartbreaking!

@Itsjustme20 it's still super early for me but I'm quietly confident this month has failed! Wish I didn't have to wait another two weeks to get started again. Bloody false positives 🤣 when's your next fertile time? X

@hoola23 I'm sorry. Fingers crossed for next cycle xx

It's horrid having to wait another 2 weeks again isn't it!! 😩😩

I haven't a clue when I'm next fertile. I'm now 6 days late and no sign of AF either. My docs have said to do another test tomorrow as levels can rise really slowly in some people but are usually detectable at 7 days. We shall see but I doubt it'll be a BFP 😂 I think they just wanted me off the phone 😂 x

@Itsjustme20 that is so annoying! I don't get why this has to be so complicated!! Just give me a baby already! 🤣🤣 I really didn't think trying for a baby was this intense- although I am actually making it more intense by POAS every day🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

It's really annoying! We've been away this week but I'm home tomorrow so I'm going to test when I'm home. It would be amazing if it is a BFP - they said as I have long-ish cycles it's possible to have a late HCG surge.

Honestly it's insane! They always teach you that you have sex, you get pregnant. I wish it was that easy 😂😂

@Itsjustme20 I'm keeping everything crossed for you!! You never know, you could have the best surprise tomo! Any other symptoms?

It would be a huge surprise if I am 😂 Um possibly but not sure if they're just cycle related!

I've had like lower abdomen pulling sensation for the last 2 weeks and bizarre cravings for certain foods (I desperately wanted beans today for instance 😂) and I've felt just 'odd' but I have lowered some medication so it could be that! X

@Itsjustme20 ohhhhh that sounds hopeful! I have well and truly messed up my diet this eve. Takeaway and ice cream 🤦‍♀️ don't even know why I bothered because I literally cannot taste anything still

I don't have my hopes up though 😂

We had a takeaway too! Diet begins again tomorrow (again😂😂) x

@Itsjustme20 glad it's not just me then 🤣 yeah I'm back on tomo- feel awful now I've eaten crap!

Hi I've had sore tingling sensations in my nipples for 2 days now. I got 2 very faint lines and did another test today and still pretty faint? Is this normal or an evap?

The clear blue & first response was last week. And the strip tests where yesterday & today.

@Lauren94laffertyx I'm not the best person to comment as I've never had a BFPbut they all look positive to me!!! Congrats!! Maybe test again in a couple of days to check they get darker! So exciting!!!

I agree - I can definitely see a faint line! I'd take a test again in 2 days as HCG doubles every 48 hours I believe during early pregnancy so the line should be darker. 🥰

Update: had a browny/bloody discharge when I wiped last night (sorry TMI 😂) so assumed AF had arrived a couple
Of days early as I was only 11 DPO and then nothing else today. 24 hours later now! I'm not confident as I've had no other symptoms but I'm quietly hoping this might be implantation spotting? Just ordered some tests off Amazon so hoping full on AF doesn't arrive in the mean time! Xx

Oh how bizarre! I'm not sure really but it could be implantation spotting I guess 🤷🏽‍♀️ I know a lot of people on here have it earlier but that doesn't mean it's not.

Hopefully your tests will arrive soon and you'll get a BFP! 🤞🏼

This was taken this morning around 11am. Looks more darker than the other ones.

@Lauren94laffertyx That's definitely darker!! Eeee huge congratulations on your BFP hun! 🎉🎉

@Itsjustme20 my first thought was right unfortunately. AF came with a vengeance this evening. 😢
But I'm going to center parcs next week so at least I'll be able to go on the water slides now xx

Ah no! At least it's arrived before your break! Water slides are a winner!

Also means closer to FW! 🎉 I'm still waiting for AF - CD38 now 😩

@MissLB me too! Mines arrived around 6 days early this month! Only had a 22 day cycle- that is so short for me. These are the kind of things that make me panic that I'm not going to get pregnant.

@hoola23 I think we just have to stay positive! It's really difficult thkugh isn't it? I'm trying to turn each month into a positive spin like 'oh well at least I don't miss out on [insert event here]' xx
