Hoping to get our BFPs in January ✨

[Decaffe]

All welcome to come along for the ride and lots of support along the way!

Checking in at 5dpo, no symptoms yet!

@Hopingforarainbow27 I really threw the book at TTC in December, did the whole pineapple slices thing too haha. At least it is tasty :)

@madeleine85 haha I've just read your meant to do it 1-5dpo so I'm too late lol! When is your first scan?

@Hopingforarainbow27

I'm currently sitting eating a whole pineapple! Only 6dpo 😩

A pineapple? I've not heard of this before?!

Apparently there is something in them that could help implantation because it reduces inflammation! Who knows!

@Btbt I've found The Miscarriage Association really helpful. There's lots of information about different aspects of miscarriage and ttc after loss. There's also a forum and online support meetings you can join.

2 days before AF is due and I tested BFN. Feel so deflated and fed up :(

Really thought we could be in with a chance this month as I thought we'd done everything at the right time.

:'((

Will catch up with the thread soon.

Sending you all love & baby dust

@Mariabombia what test did you use? Your not out until AF shows up!

Hello all,

Struggling to keep up with this thread.

@arianasky I’m really sorry to hear about the chemical. I had 2 chemicals before my 2 children. They are very common but very sad to go through. I hope the next one sticks for you.

@CSR721 you sound like you are spending a lot of money on pregnancy tests and just making yourself more stressed about the situation? Maybe stop testing and wait for the scan. I agree it is confusing and must be frustrating for you.

I’m currently 5dpo (I think?). Will hold out til the weekend but then I know I’m going to cave in to testing! My husband has asked me to wait til AF is due as the chemicals are upsetting but I’m rubbish at waiting. With my daughter I actually kept it a secret from him for a week until after AF day so I was more sure!

@Bringonbaby3

Think you might have sent your reply to the wrong person? x

Hey y'all sorry it's been a busy couple of weeks and I haven't had the chance to catch up!
So my app says my period is due Thursday and to test tomorrow however based on my opks I think I'm only about 7/8dpo.
I did take a test today before I realised and there was possibly a very very faint line but dunno if I'm seeing what I wanna see 🤣
Going to try holding off till sat to test again.
I've had cramps on and off past 2 days. Today they've been mostly left sided which honestly concerns me and cycle before last I had a suspected eptopic MC and there was a mass or something on the left side but as my hormone levels went back to zero I wasn't able to have a follow up scan to check whatever it was had gone.

@CSR721 whoops yes apologies!

I meant @CJB92

The pineapple thing sounds interesting 😂 might have to try that next time

@Bringonbaby3 aww thank you 💕 I'm sorry to hear that, I think I'll just stick to testing near period now so I don't have the heartache again ❤️

So I'm spotting now I never spot with my periods so would you class today as CD1?

@Bringonbaby3 no worries, I'm with you on not being able to keep up!! 😂😂

@arianasky yes I was wondering this! The first day is always super light, just small specs on wiping and then a full bleed the next day. Never know which one to count as D1?

@arianasky, no love - I'm the queen of spotting. Wait until you get fresh red blood (i.e. proper period flow) for CD1.

Hoping you don't have to wait too much longer and AF properly turns up so you can get a fresh cycle in. Sending you a virtual hug.

Just caught up again after another manic day packing and moving stuff to storage. Hoping you're ok @arianasky @CJB92 and anyone else struggling on this rollorcoaster journey, sending virtual hugs and lots of baby dust.

Is anyone else just entering their fertile window? I got my flashing smiley today and we are now staying at my parents so hugely frustrated that I can't just sneak off with DH and dtd for the next three days!! feels like such a wasted opportunity!! We managed to dtd yesterday before we came but was low on the opks so not sure if I'll even be in with a chance but I bet I'll still drive myself crazy in the tww...

@Hopingforarainbow27 a Morrisons early response lol not sure if they're any good but I just feel like there would be at least a slight shadow or something if I was :(
It's so shit.
How're you doing? Are you still planning to test on the 12th xx

Hi I hope you don't mind me jumping in.
I got a positive opk on 2/1/22 so I'm in the 2ww.
Haven't had a period since before having my LG and even then they were very irregular.
I'm thinking of testing at 10dpo

@BabyBird20 can you bit just sneak off and do the deed quickly lol. Needs must ha ha x

I had a static smiley on the 28th (my CB doesn't do a flashing smiley) so if I ovulated on the 28th or 29th when is the earliest I can test? I guess the clear blue digital ones are the most accurate are they that say pregnant or not pregnant. Prefer to use one of those then mine check as I think they drive is mad looking lol

@SkaterChick that's such a worry for you, can you have a private scan to get it checked out?
Show us your vvvfl! I am also due af next Thursday but I've been holding off testing until this weekend but you saying that made me want to test as I'm the same dpo as you 😅

@Diamondbabe I got a static smiley on 29th and I'm going to try hold off until 12th Jan as my luteal phase is always 13 days so I'm just waiting until AF should be due. I say that now but I could cave in before then! I know I'll
Only be disappointed though if I do it early and it's negative

Has anyone had a sore lower back before a bfp? I feel like I've pulled something at times. Symptom spotting once again!
Current symptoms are cream cm, tired, needing to wee more often and the odd twinge!
