Hi Everyone,

I thought I’d start a new thread for February following the January one.

About to start month 4 of TTC after a MC last month.

The months seem so long with a TWW thrown in but then I also can’t believe I’m about to start cycle 4! (I know that isn’t a long time for some of us and that makes me feel sad, TTC is so unfair at times)

Anyway, feel free to join if you’d like to get through February together! X

@DancinOnTheCeiling wow that's a line!!! Congratulations!!!

@Decaffe that's why I really dislike the tests that claim to be accurate XY days before AF. Say you have a 10 day luteal phase and the tests claim to detect hcg 6 days before AF - the test magically knows you're pregnant even though you couldn't possibly have implanted yet? It's so misleading.
But yeah, if you have a long luteal phase, you test earlier, but at the same DPO as you'd normally would.

Cracking line @DancinOnTheCeiling congratulations!

@DancinOnTheCeiling

Omg I’m in shock!!! Thanks so much for the congratulations 😍😍. Okay so details: first of all we used the *@Purple29* method so THANK you purple!!!!! We did it exactly as you said (except the one after ovulation, we were knackered). Need to go and find my notes and will update in a minute... as for DH, he’s at work and back at 10pm and cannot wait to tell him. Be back with details in a sec
Awww a *@Purple29* success, amazing! 💜💜💜

How are you going to tell DH, can we help you be creative?!

Omg!!! Massive congratulations on that line. Such a strong line!!!! So glad it worked for you. Fingers crossed it could help many more get their little miracles!!! Im so happy for you.... sending lots of sticky baby dust!!!
DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:23

Thanks ladies, so kind. This support is so so amazing, thank you!!!!

I know sorry @Decaffe, I just went to tell my lovely neighbour and am on a timeline as DH home soon.. I’m rushing about. She’s saying put it in a nice bag with nice tissue but I think he’ll know straight away. Any other ideas?

Natalie2304 · 31/01/2022 21:24

@DancinOnTheCeiling that's amazing! Congratulations. So happy for you. Can't wait to hear the details! 🥰

Natalie2304 · 31/01/2022 21:26

@Decaffe I have an 11 day LP but with my DD I didn't test positive until day 11. So the '6 days early' is based on a usual cycle length. Hope that makes sense xx

QueenBee22 · 31/01/2022 21:28

Congratulations @DancinOnTheCeiling. That's a definite positive!

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 21:28

@DancinOnTheCeiling marker pen heart on your belly and tell him to look under your t-shirt? A little paper chase through the house to the test left somewhere? A note on the calendar for EDD and tell him to look through the calendar for something exciting?

QueenBee22 · 31/01/2022 21:30

What is the @Purple29 method??

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:38

I’ve decided to do something with a box of LTF tests. I wondered if I gave him the box and said ‘can you open this for me darling’, then in the box my negative LTF and a note saying “some tests are negative...” and some nice tissue paper and when he folds it over he sees the pregnancy test with the BFP. Or something similar? Anyone got any ideas how to word it?

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:39

Oh I’ve just seen your suggestions @mightbeyesmightbeno. Oh I love them too.. Aaaah, I’m running out of time. I love the calendar one but don’t have one.. aaah

arianasky · 31/01/2022 21:39

@DancinOnTheCeiling you could put it in the cutlery drawer or in front of one of the cupboards and say to him can you grab me a spoon please etc and it'll be the first thing he sees, he wouldn't expect it that way and will be surprised 💕

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:40

@QueenBee22

What is the *@Purple29* method??
@QueenBee22 yes 😊. When I get a minute I’ll post the details (after the surprise for my DH)
DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:41

@arianasky oh that too is a fab idea... too many good ideas. Aaah

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 21:43

@QueenBee22 I took a screen shot a few weeks ago of the suggestion ..

The month of valentines, pancakes and lot’s of BFP’s! 🤞🏻❤️
DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:44

@Purple29 thanks so much. I told you you’re famous here on MN 😍😍. So so so chuffed and so grateful to you. So much more relaxed than our other cycles!! Really hoping it works for others too (including you of course) 🤞🏻 Xx

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 21:44

@DancinOnTheCeiling sounds good like! Like the cutlery draw idea too. Ahhh I'm so excited for you! Let us know how it goes x

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:45

Will do @mightbeyesmightbeno

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 21:46

@DancinOnTheCeiling you've made me so hopeful... this month I've hit CD7,10,14&15 so almost the purple method. So I'm now really hopeful :) Good to be excited :)

TheBirdintheCave · 31/01/2022 22:08

Wow @DancinOnTheCeiling what an amazing line! :O Congrats!

Cookiedough123 · 31/01/2022 22:23

@DancinOnTheCeiling congratulations on your line!! I have just looked and we did 9, 12,15,17.
Not sure if I missed the post but how many DPO is your test? I see on our testing calendar it was a few more days away so did you test quite early? Any symptoms?

MummyMe87 · 31/01/2022 23:04

Congratulations @DancinOnTheCeiling such a fab line! Very very positive!!
