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!

@Sunrise321 @madeleine85 same question from me if that's ok.

My periods never stopped but I have been very small. Feel stupid for not connecting before.

@CJB92 oh I understand, I was pregnant at 30 and my 31st birthday and there's no way I'll have a baby by my 32nd birthday maybe I'll be pregnant 🙏🏻 but it's still so sad when you think of it like that 💕

@SkaterChick I can see it congratulations 🎉

@arianasky definitely! Fx for you! ❤
I'm now the oldest woman in my family that hasn't had their first child yet. I can feel people wanting to ask when am I going to have one. Its really difficult

@HMFx ooh brilliant! Tww buddies! I keep promising myself I'm not going to symptom spot and overthink it then find myself obsessively googling every little thing! Must try to stay calm this month!

@BabyBird20 yesssss that is amazing news!! So glad you got your peak :)

BFN for me ! :( Bit disappointed but was kind of expecting it. I’m only 8/9dpo but I’ve always had very early positives before so I think I’m out.

Onto the next month!

@Bringonbaby3 I'm also TTC number 3 :)
Sorry about your negative test! I also got early positives previously. 9/10 DPO today and BFN.

It sucks! I keep saying you're not out until AF arrives! I'm going to probably test everyday until it arrives though... I'm annoying myself!

Hope everyone is doing okay and surviving the tww! Good luck and baby dust to anyone testing today. I almost did and chickened out. Af due tomorrow and starting to feel signs she is on her way :(

Thanks @madeleine85 I was so excited I made my dh dtd even though we're staying at my parents. Had to at least try! 😬

Morning all! Sorry I was quiet yesterday, I had a banging headache all day and took myself to bed in the afternoon, where I slept for two hours which is absolutely unlike me as I can never sleep in the day!

Story so far - 8dpo faint maybe line maybe indent on FRER, as posted up thread. 9dpo FRER was pretty much blank.

This morning, 10dpo, another faint maybe line. It (whatever it is) appeared after one minute, whereas 8dpo was after three. I am sure it has some pink to it in real life, but I am so confused. If it is real then why was yesterday’s clear? And why is the progression from 8 to 10 so minute?

So essentially I’m feeling none the wiser and as if I’m just weeing on bank notes

Off to make a cuppa then I’ll have a catch up on the many posts!

By the way what pens do you use to write on your FRER that don’t smudge or smear? My ‘dab of nail polish’ technique could be improved upon, I feel.

I think I'm out for this month guys. Just started spotting 5 days before AF is due. It's usual for me since my Covid vaccine so I think I'm out!

Good luck to everyone on this thread I'll be back next month :)

@Decaffe There's definite line progression there and the tiredness and headache is a good sign 🤞🏻 fingers crossed for you... I use a red sharpie pen to write on mine saves it smudging then, yes I am that crazy 😂🙈

Sorry to hear that @HelloNope fingers crossed for next month 💕

Is 4DPO too early for crazy symptom spotting … I have heartburn (which I never get!) … the metallic mouth taste and the most heavy eyes I’ve ever felt.

I haven’t had any symptoms in my other TTC months but this is only cycle #3. So just jotting them here in case this turns into a BFP. I could just be sick 🤣🥲

@lottieb92 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I saw this on my Instagram feed and thought I'd share it here for all of us 🙏🏻🤞🏻

I'm sorry @CJB92 you're definitely not old though and easier said than done but just try to concentrate on yourself and not worry what other people think 💕

Hurrah! I found you all again. I lost you after the last thread filled up.

I got my BFP this morning. I keep pinching myself!

Ahh massive congratulations @TotoAnnihiliation how many dpo are you?

@BabyBird20

Ahh massive congratulations *@TotoAnnihiliation* how many dpo are you?

Thank you, I think I'm 12 days past ovulation. It would explain why tea has been tasting like dish water for the last week!

Ah yes @TotoAnnihiliation that happened to me the first time, suddenly couldn't bear the taste of tea and went from drinking pints per day to none! Had a banging caffeine withdrawal headache on top of the pregnancy symptoms and had to drink water out of my thermal mug so people at work wouldn't get suspicious!

I'm going to claim new year caffeine withdrawal if anyone asks me!
