It seems AF is coming to get me end of this week (Fri), so instead of feeling sorry for myself I’m trying to look forward to October and getting to try again! šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»

Anyone else with me?

@Cruz86, not me - @SammiStap is the one with the willpower. If I had her symptoms I'd be down the chemist for a FRER like a shot! I'm mega impressed!

Morning everyone!

Another BFP congratulations @positiveovernegative amazing news! 🄰

I’m 11dpo today and I was woken up at 5:30am with bad cramps. I usually don’t get any kind of period pain until like 2nd day of my period when it gets a bit heavier. But this woke me up and I couldn’t work out if the pain was just because I needed a wee šŸ˜‚ but I went and then got back in bed and the pain got worse, I had to breath through it but then within a couple of minutes the pain subsided and now I feel fine. Anyone had anything like this before? xx

Marie93 · 12/10/2021 09:12

Hii, anyone mind if I join? Been checking out this one for a little bit
Congratulations for all the BFP’s can’t believe so many such great news
I’m on cd10 and got my flashy smiley yesterday and today so ovulating must be on its way soon, it’s earlier than normal this month too. I’m normally between 24-28days

Bundaberg84 · 12/10/2021 09:28

Look at all these BFP! What a lucky thread indeed Star Congratulations to all of you!!!

@positiveovernegative 🄳🄳🄳 what a lucky bus!! Congratulations!

DanielleNicola · 12/10/2021 09:51

@positiveovernegative congratulations! 🄳

Squiff70 · 12/10/2021 09:53

Good morning. Congratulations on the BFP @positiveovernegative !

Welcome to people whose just joined.

I worked out that I'm somewhere between 11 and 6 DPO Confused. This morning I woke from a dream that I was pregnant and had to run for a wee before I decided to do a test. Each morning when I have a wee without POAS I congratulate myself for sticking it out another day Grin

I'm testing on Saturday though if AF doesn't rear its ugly head by then. Anyone else testing this weekend?

Must learn to read before hitting post!

Shortmamashortcycles · 12/10/2021 09:56

@Coco9910, I've had exactly those cramps twice and I'm afraid once it meant AF was on her way and once was a BFP so... entirely inconclusive, sorry!

Effram · 12/10/2021 10:01

oh my word so many BFPs!! Yayyyyy!

Congrats @positiveovernegative @TTC081994 @DanielleNicola @jadeypies @lilkayjay

@Digby86 I feel a connection to you - I'm also 86 and our dog is Digby!

@apwilso @Mummytobe93 you don't share bloodstream until I think 4/5 weeks so a drink or two is not going to be an issue at all, especially pre ovulation! As I said before I drink until it's pink as a doctor once said to me! However my experience when trying to not reveal I'm not drinking when I choose not to is not to go with the antibiotics line - just don't say anything at all. I would accept a drink someone bought me and just pretend to drink it, and swap it out when I could. I often got the bar staff on side so I would get the drinks and ask them for a lemonade but in a tall glass with lime so it looks like g&t etc. or a delicious mocktail! people don't actually tend to pay that much attention to what you have or how fast you drink, unless you make a big thing out of saying you're not! (that's my experience anyway!). When I went out with my husband he loved it as he would drink mine on the sly - drinking for 3 he would say!

@SammiStap TEST you absolute maniac!!! how can you possibly resist!!

@Cruz86 I had a BFP 9DPO with my first son but not until 15 with my second - I was so convinced I was out as assumed it would show early again but didn't come up until day after my period was due!

@Nailingnow did you test again? fingers crossed

@danani my chart is as ragged as yours, I've had such disrupted sleep but I'm just using it as informal data haha! I had a temp rise this morning so it's not fully confirmed, hopefully it will go up again tomorrow but I'm pretty sure O was sunday/monday so I'm counting today as 1DPO. test day 24th... (I would aim for 26th but I know I won't last haha!)

Elsols93 · 12/10/2021 10:05

Wow I can’t believe another BFP @positiveovernegative congratulations can you all sprinkle loads of baby dust are way šŸ˜‚

@Squiff70 I had a crazy dream about pregnancy to! Woke up this morning slightly nauseous but I no it’s to early for that....

Also felt some tugging/ niggling sensation on right side ovaries where I had my ovulation pains today after the gym. Does any one cut out the hard gym classes while ttc or am I over thinking it ?

Xxx

@Shortmamashortcycles haha I’m hoping for the latter šŸ¤žšŸ¼ They have stopped now but it’s mad what our body’s are doing! xx

lilrosemarie · 12/10/2021 10:22

Hey,
may I join you?
We've been TTC since January - well, we stopped trying NOT to get pregnant then. šŸ™‚ Then for a few months we were very chill, a couple cycles we were really good and I thought those would be it ... but obviously nothing happened. We're both 29, trying for baby nr. 1. 😊

I'm due AF on 15th, or 17th on the latest. My cycles range from 28-30 days. I gave up ovulation tests months ago so I have no idea what dpo I am.

Congrats to all of you who have gotten your BFPs! And fingers crossed for everyone else. šŸ™‚šŸ™šŸ»

Digby86 · 12/10/2021 10:32

Thanks for the welcome guys!

@Effram no way!?! Our dog is Digby too!! Clearly we both have good taste in pet names! 🤣

Oh wow, I hadn’t fully caught up on the thread when I posted. Huge congrats to all the BFPs!

SammiStap · 12/10/2021 10:50

🤣🤣 @Effram hah you made me laugh then!!! I’m just so scared I’ll be negative! Just want to see how the next couple days goes! Then I PROMISE I’ll test!

@positiveovernegative
CONGRATULATIONS! Yet another BFP! This is seriously the best thread ever!

So I’ve gone into work and now had breakfast as I’ve stopped feeling sicky still got cold symptoms though but they have subsided a little.

SammiStap · 12/10/2021 10:52

@Squiff70 I’ll be testing at the weekend or just before unless af comes.
I’d better test sometime soon otherwise some of you will start yelling at me šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

misstickhill · 12/10/2021 10:56

So many BFPs in this group! Absolutely amazing, congratulations all.

Hi @lilrosemarie. I am in a similar position to you, I’m 27 and DH 30 trying for baby number 1! Are you temping? I started this month and it’s brought me so much reassurance already to see a nice, clear pattern.

And a question for all, has anyone else been having crazy dreams post ovulation?! I’m 3 DPO today and the last two nights I have had the most crazy vivid dreams like I’ve never had before! I’ve read that it can be due to the temp spike but it’s freaking me out! They make me feel weird all day.

Squiff70 · 12/10/2021 10:56

@SammiStap ooooh testing buddies! Saturday? AF is due Friday onwards here.

lilrosemarie · 12/10/2021 11:15

@misstickhill no, never tried temping and I don't think I will. 😬 I'm currently just waiting to see if it'll happen ... due to my job it'd be the best if I got pregnant in December/January but we all know this is not how this ttc thing works. Lol

We'll see if it's meant to be for us to become parents soon. šŸ™šŸ»

positiveovernegative · 12/10/2021 11:36

Thanks everyone šŸ¤žšŸ½ this little bean is my sticky one.
Lots and lots of dust to you all ✨

I am totally with you. Been feeling rubbish past few days. Tested again today 11dpo and negative again! Feel so so down :(
BoyMum18 · 12/10/2021 11:40

Sorry replied to wrong comment šŸ˜‚

SammiStap · 12/10/2021 11:57

@Squiff70 yes up for Saturday unless I really run out of willpower. My af due tomorrow/Thursday so will see 😬

Mummytobe93 · 12/10/2021 11:58

@misstickhill I’ve been having some weird and disturbing dreams past ovulation, must be the rise in progesterone 😜

I’ve ordered myself a pack of easy @ home tests since I’ve got the pre mom app. I feel like taking picture of the stick and letting the app decide if it’s a positive or not is better for my mental health šŸ˜…

apwilso · 12/10/2021 12:16

@Cruz86 yeah that's what I'm thinking! Puts me in two minds.

@Mummytobe93 it's my birthday so I've already planned to go out for drinks and food now so I might not be as silly as usual!

I don't think alcohol has ever affected my cycle tbqh and the amount of times I've stopped drinking or cut back on stuff just in case and everything I'm always negative! I'll see how I get on!
