@sparkle342 so sorry to hear about your loss in June x

Similar position to you !! Waiting, getting symptoms into my head that probably are not real ! And now wondering when I actually ovulated as I'm not questioning it so I have no idea what on earth is going on!

Hi there!! omg im only like 2dpo and now im thinking did i acc ovulate or is it in my head. I did use ovulation sticks because I had extra discharge and it did come out positive but some how I still question it. How many dpo are you? xx

Km12345 · 15/08/2021 21:42

@sparkle342 well I thought I ovulated over a week ago! But then I had some discharge yesterday which I am now wondering if that was ovulation! Although I don't usually get discharge with ovulation so I am very confused !! I've been having a low of lower back pain / nausea, but I think the nausea is in my mind! And the back pain is probably due to my period :( so I think I need to stop getting my hopes up! I feel like I've become obsessed

do you use ovulation sticks? maybe youre ovulating again? which apparently is possible. How long have you been ttc for? xx

Sorry for your loss!

Same position.. had coil out 12 days ago (non hormonal one) which was also the end of my period, had it in my head I could be preggo already but probably haven't even ovulated yet, already tested twice when I KNOOOOW it's too soon I just can't help it 😭😂 hows everyone else killing time? Least week felt like a year 🙄

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:04

@jokerflowers
thank you💗 Have you tried using ovulation sticks? I ovulated like 2 days ago but in my head im like 9 months pregnant😂😂 I dont know how im going to go 2 weeks even thinking about it is giving me anxiety😅. I hope work kills some time and maybe try finding something to watch, how quick that'll pass time I dont know🥺

jokerflowers · 15/08/2021 22:08

I haven't, maybe I should get some.. I do track my period on an app and apparently my fertile window is now and I ovulate on weds, but I don't know how reliable that is! Trying not to test is sooo hard, I'm constantly bloated too which has been a problem for months for me but in my mind I'm like yeah here's my bump 😂 and every single night without fail.. I dream about positive tests, giving birth or having a baby, nightmare!

lovo31 · 15/08/2021 22:10

Can I join? Smile on cycle 4 at 6DPO and going slightly insane Grin symptom spotting like crazy: extreme nausea, sore boobs, tired! used OPKS and still using them to make sure there's not another spike! AF due Saturday, going to try and hold out until Wednesday to do (another) test!!!

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:13

@jokerflowers omg its like im talking to myself😂 I DO THE SAME THING, in my head im like wow ive got a cute baby bump but im always so bloated😩. Yeah you should try them just so youre sure, I use the ones from amazon think its called easy @ home, theyre quite cheap aswell so not wasting so much money because it can get addictive😅. Is this your first month trying for a baby then? x

Km12345 · 15/08/2021 22:13

I'm due Saturday as well 😣 although I've already done tests knowing damb well it's to early

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:15

@lovo31 Hi there! sure you can😘 omg good luck!! hopefully theyre all good signs and you'll be getting good news soon. I think thats the most worrying part, is double checking to make sure it doesnt spike. But all the signs seem very positive, hopefully we can all keep eachother sane till we can finally test💕

Km12345 · 15/08/2021 22:16

I don't use ovulation sticks, although I might have to start! My husband and I agreed we wouldn't technically 'try' and we would let it happen, little does he know how obsessed I've become !! With my 1st I stopped the pill in July thinking it would take me months to get back to normal and I was pregnant in the November and we wernt trying, so it's more frustrating now that it doesn't seem to be happening!!

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:16

@Km12345 whens the earliest you can test, is it like midweek? we all do it! its just soooo hard to wait

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:18

@Km12345 Yeah it so easy to become obsessed, im in the same boat! Oh maybe trying the ovulation sticks might help abit more, maybe its a little different this second time round. Try not to worry itll all work out soon enough x

Km12345 · 15/08/2021 22:18

Well the 1st response say 6 days before period !! But I suppose it's best to wait a little longer ! I've got 2 tests left !! 1 first response and a tiny cheap one! I'm going to try hold out as long as I can! Although I'm pretty sure I've got my hopes up to be honest

lovo31 · 15/08/2021 22:19

@Km12345 ovulation sticks have really helped me! I'm using the easy @ home ones alongside the Ovia app. The app was predicting my fertile period a lot earlier than the OPK's

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:20

@Km12345 yeah try waiting till like maybe Wednesday/Thursday. Theres still some hope x

Km12345 · 15/08/2021 22:20

@lovo31 I think I will definitely give them a go!

lovo31 · 15/08/2021 22:24

@Km12345 one of the boxes on Amazon is pink (I think 50OPKS) but it also comes with 20 pregnancy tests - I'm just working my way through those Grin I think I'm going to test Wednesday with a first response - 99% accurate 4 days before AF arrives!

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:26

@lovo31 I use the same ones and theyre amazing! if you download the premom app and register you get a certain amount off your first purchase, defo check it out!

jokerflowers · 15/08/2021 22:45

@Flowerpot564 yeah this is my first month trying, but will be for baby number 3. With my last two I had a buuuunch of false negatives, to the point that with my second I was 10 weeks and clear blue test said 2 weeks 🙄 I bought cheap test strips from Poundland because I KNOW I'm going to test all the time even when I'm not supposed to 😅 I'll buy a better one closer to period due date.

I do keep getting lower cramping and back ache and getting my hopes up thats it's implantation, also emotional as hell, but who knows 🤷🏽‍♀️

jokerflowers · 15/08/2021 22:46

@Km12345 I haven't been using ovulation sticks either but sounds like it may be worth a try, could help us both 🥰

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:51

@jokerflowers really? Ive seen loads of storys on here about false negatives, bet its so frustrating! I cant help myself I get to 5/6dpo and start testing, full on knowing its probs not even implanted yet😂 I got the 50 pack from amazon the easy@home brand theyre super sensitive and pick up very eary. They do give false positives sometimes so can be annoying🙄. fingers crossed for you though, hope we al get our positives soon💕

jokerflowers · 15/08/2021 22:54

@Flowerpot564 yeah I had several false negatives with both my last pregnancies so I dare not spend on expensive ones haha, but I'll have a look at those Amazon ones, they sound good!
Don't worry, I'll be testing like mad too 😅 fingers crossed for us all! Best of luck

Flowerpot564 · 15/08/2021 22:57

Same, theyre so expensive and before you know it youve got more and more😂 Yeah theyre really good, download the premom app, they give you it half price i think when you register. The back pain and cramping are good signs, so I hope its a good outcome, aww thank you😘
