Hi all. Currently in the TWW and if we conceive this cycle bubba will be arriving in October! Anyone want to join in symptom spotting and testing 😊?

It's ridiculous that you'd potentially have to go through another one just to be taken more seriously @PoopMaster. I do believe the guidelines with progesterone have changed now, so you only need to have had 1 miscarriage before they'll consider prescribing suppositories x

@Mariabombia I'm on my honeymoon! We had a miscarriage last November and thought what the hell and booked it... after 4 wedding attempts, a restricted wedding and a miscarriage we thought a holiday was in order! So I'm in Sri Lanka till Monday and only have cheap internet tests with me so just have to ride it out and pray it sticks...

@Charl881 I tested at 9dpo and was a BFN then again at 14dpo which is when I got a positive bit didn't test in between so could have been positive before then!

@Bridgey8 amazing, so happy for you!

@PoopMaster I'm 1 dpo and I've decided to take baby aspirin just bought it from the supermarket, I've had two losses so I've decided I'll give it a try 🤞🏻

@mummytorm Evening! Hope everyone's doing well 😄 I'm so bloody confused right now and just need to ramble as my DP is bored of me talking I'm sure. So I ovulated (positive CB digital) on 15th January, then came on my period 5 days after. It was a weird period for me though none of the normal symptoms and a weird start, plus it only lasted a few days. I'm now having awful headaches, nausea (wow it's extreme like I was with my girls) and I have no appetite and even had a nap today 🙈 am I overthinking this completely?? Xx

@Holly3 could it have been implantation bleeding? You could always do a test to make sure 🤞🏼

@mummytorm Very possibly! It seemed too heavy for that but I know my MIL and another friend had periods for months during pregnancies so I know it's not limited to just light spotting etc. I took one this afternoon but was negative so may do a FRER Friday and try and hold out until then Xx

Hi all, sorry just jumping in at this late stage!! I got my BFP at 12po just this past Saturday, but I am very nervous and apprehensive, as I had a very early miscarriage end of Oct/early Nov. And I don’t really have any symptoms. So I am not yet jointing any “Due Oct 2022” boards, probably until I reach 6 - 8 weeks or so. But just wanted to jump in to say lots of luck to those still to test and Congratulations to those who got their BFPs 🌟

@PoopMaster - have you tried Proov for progesterone testing? You have to ship it from the U.S which is a pain, but you do the Pdg (progesterone in urine) test at days 7,8,9,10 post peak LH, to check your progesterone levels (it’s a strip and you upload the photo on their app. It then tells you the level). At the end it gives you an “Ovulation Score” out of 100, based on these. You need at least 3 days of positives (including day 10) to confirm successful ovulation.

Might also be worth a go for you @Cruz86 if you’re test today doesn’t answer enough questions, since the Proov one is over 4 days.

Xx

Thanks @i123i, I will keep that in mind if I have another early loss (I did 10 years ago).

Hello! Can I join pls? Coming to the end of the tww, fingers crossed!

@PoopMaster - ah I’m so so sorry, just read back and you got your BFP already!! Congratulations!! Sorry, that teaches me for jumping in near the end of a thread without reading it all. ❤️

Nothing to be sorry about @i123i 😊

I'm a bit worried now as I had my static smiley on my clearblue yesterday, I DTD Thursday, Saturday and yesterday but for some reason I took a opk just now and it showed as high and my DP is away until Thursday 😞 just hope I've done enough?

@Bridgey8 aww how lovely! So glad you've got to go then after all that. What month did you end up getting married? We were so lucky with ours in October thankfully. Absolute nightmare planning a wedding during covid wasn't it!

So sorry about your Mc in November :( xx

@arianasky

5dpo 😬 !!

I wouldn't worry if you've already had your static? Did you have any ovulation pain when you got your solid smiley? I'm sure you'll be covered if you did it yesterday.

I would definitely test! It could have been that there were two and now only one (more common than we think apparently)

Ooh thank you for the info on Proov @i123i! I will definitely bear that in mind if I feel like my results from today don't give me enough insight.

@arianasky is your opk peak or just high? If it's high, that will coincide with your digital. It can take a little while for them to turn negative after the peak!

@Mariabombia we got married in June (so restricted to 30) but had to cancel April 2020 two weeks out when covid first hit, then nov, then two dates in Dec! Just desperate to get it over with by the end!!! Congrats on your wedding!!!! Xxx

@Mariabombia 6dpo now for you eee exciting! Yes I did have some twinges on the left side so 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Cruz86 it was high but the highest it had been if that makes sense? Hopefully I've done enough 🤞🏻🌈

I think that sounds good @arianasky! Fingers crossed for you xx

Thank you @Cruz86 I hope so 🙏🏻 I'll be sticking to clearblue only next time I've confused myself so much with the OPK's 😂 my Premom app is saying I'm 4dpo and I've inputted all my tests 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm going for 2dpo myself, do you know if the app adjusts itself according to your opk's?

Out of curiosity did anyone get any leg cramps with implantation? I get aches in my thighs sometimes with bad period pains and today I feel really bloated and with the leg pains. AF isn't due yet but my cycles are all over the place!

Also have lower back ache

@mummytorm I did right in my upper thigh, fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻
