@mightbeyesmightbeno couldn’t agree more. It’s hard as I don’t want to make it a chore, but we both want this equally - so I’m giving us as much chance as possible!

Yep I’m hoping to hold out until 10dpo at least, as anything under that I’m not confident of the result. Just need to ignore the tests until that day!

I’ll be 1dpo tomorrow 😊

mrsS21 · 09/11/2021 17:53

Amazing @winkles23!! Congrats on your bfp!! Can’t beat seeing those two lines/digi text!🎉

mightbeyesmightbeno · 09/11/2021 18:52

@winkles23 I think you need to relax and ENJOY this moment!

Tinkerbell098 · 09/11/2021 20:14

@winkles23 congratulations! are you making an appointment with the doctor soon?

winkles23 · 09/11/2021 20:17

@mrsS21 thank you!

@mightbeyesmightbeno I know, I'm definitely going to try! 

@Tinkerbell098 thank you! I called today and as they've put me at 5 weeks (last period started on 05/10/2021 but I have irregular cycles so I think I'm around 4 weeks) they said they will call me back to sort out a first appointment in around 3 weeks time

@winkles23 oh yey! excited for you! keep us updated :)

mightbeyesmightbeno · 10/11/2021 10:32

Symptom spotting like mad today! Could vague crampy feeling be implantation? Or more likely just PMS! Literally every tiny feeling means something today 😂

Tinkerbell098 · 10/11/2021 11:00

@mightbeyesmightbeno that sounds like a good sign? if it's too early for AF and you're spotting, most likely it's implantation bleeding. Fingers crossed for you xx

beckybabyx · 10/11/2021 14:10

Hope it’s okay if I join.
Congratulations @winkles23

I’m 7dpo today and having some weird cramps and TMI but lots of CM which isn’t like me? Been off the pill since December but actively ttc for 3 cycles now and I’m getting really impatient 🤣 xx

melbxldn · 10/11/2021 14:46

I’m between 7-9dpo, only tried on day of and after +ve opk and first month TTC 2, took 3 months with my first and imagining the same early symptoms but prob just normal PMS!

@beckybabyx thank you! Fingers crossed for you, anything that seems out of the norm can be a good sign! x

So just a little update, I've been good and not used my frer (saving for tomorrow and then two days after to give enough time to give a fair comparison) BUT I have POAS but it was an internet cheapie which I have loads of so it's not too bad HaloSeeing some progression!

How are you all getting along? x

@winkles23 that looks so promising eep!

@xoxo321 this cycle I’ve had cramps and lower back pain after ovulation too, but it’s also my first TTC so I’m not sure if I’m just noticing them now!

beckybabyx · 10/11/2021 17:03

@winkles23 that is really good progression!! xx

kizzy97 · 10/11/2021 18:23

Hi, hope it's okay to join! :) ttc #2 after finally convincing my partner and am on my first cycle! 4 dpo atm but have been having slight cramping and really sore/achy boobs I know it's really early but fingers crossed 🤞! @winkles23 congrats on your bfp! 😀 xx

melbxldn · 10/11/2021 21:51

@kizzy97 same with the cycle 1 for #2 and convincing the partner haha but I think I’m 7-9 dpo. No signs here yet

mightbeyesmightbeno · 10/11/2021 21:58

@kizzy97 @melbxldn exactly the same as your guys - cycle 1 of TTC #2 after getting DH on board this month. 2/3 days PO. X

kizzy97 · 10/11/2021 23:48

@melbxldn - fingers crossed 🤞 for you, I'm nervous but excited! Been ready for months haha. Are you using OPKs? xx

@mightbeyesmightbeno - hopefully it happens for you first time too! Are you using OPKs or just tracking roughly via an app? xx

melbxldn · 11/11/2021 06:58

@kizzy97 yup using opks and temp, my temp had a slight rise day after opk +ve and big jump 2 days after. My app said I ovulated day of opk +ve but I think it might have been the day or 2 days after hence not sure if I’m 8 or 10 dpo!

Bundaberg84 · 11/11/2021 08:31

I think I'm out. Started spotting today at only 12dpo, I really don't understand what's going on with my body. My luteal phase was always 14 days, since starting opk in January. I also don't have the usual AF cramps, it's so annoying to feel kinda like a stranger in my own body. I always had a really good feeling of my body if that makes sense, but I seem to have lost it. Sorry for the ramble, I feel really bad right now. Not because AF arrived, that's alright.

Is there any chance it could be I'm plantation spotting?

OP posts:
Tinkerbell098 · 11/11/2021 09:57

@Bundaberg84 it could be implantation bleeding? Especially if it's a bit early and you're regular? and you don't have the usual cramps? see how it develops over the next couple of days.

kizzy97 · 11/11/2021 10:02

@melbxldn - Are they easy to use? I've seen so many people get more stressed out by them! I've not been using them as of yet been doing what I did last time and just using my app and making sure I dtd reguarly enough. According to my app I ovulated 5 days ago which adds up with the symptoms and changes in cm I had!

@Bundaberg84 - as OP said, might be implantation bleeding?

Bundaberg84 · 11/11/2021 10:08

@kizzy97 @Tinkerbell098 @winkles23 would be nice, but I don't think so as it's bright red - I think implantation bleeding would be either pink or brown? It's not a lot like normally, like I only need a panty liner and I only bleed when on the toilet if that makes sense, but the colour is off.
