I totally get that. I miscarried at 8 weeks last April, unplanned baby no 4. But I cant see life without a 4th baby now. It took me a bit to talk OH round but we are here now xx @Nik84

Nik84 · 15/02/2022 22:36

Oh that’s so good to know I’m not the only one @MrsGrealish 😊

Hello Ladies, mind if I join?!
TTC #2
DS 1 has a November birthday so I was unsure if we should skip this month and next month (I am a NY baby and my birthday is at a crap time
of year) however have decided I would like to be very pregnant/had the baby by the time I turn 37 at the start of next year so need to get a move on.
Not started on the OPKs yet as AF only ended on Sunday and I don’t usually ovulate until about day 16/17
Baby dust to you all Grin

@santastolemycat welcome!

Good luck, fingers crossed you wont have to try for many cycles. How old is your dc?

I'm just hanging around this month, cause I'm changing ivf clinics but will jump right back in on March.

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 12:18

Welcome @santastolemycat! Love the user name, wish Santa would steal my cat it's just peed all over the floor🤦‍♀️

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 13:38

Full marks for putting the test on your shopping list Mrs G 😂

Hmm… can you take a pic in another light?

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 13:45

😂😂 I'll take another later. The more I look at it the more negative it looks. And my kids keep wandering in talking...

Coastaldreamer · 16/02/2022 13:45

@MrsGrealish it's a bit dark but I can't see anything :( can you take it in a lighter place

Cheekypeach · 16/02/2022 13:47

I can see a faint line I think but not when I look directly at it weirdly Confused

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 13:49

😂😂🙈🙈 thanks ladies x

Coastaldreamer · 16/02/2022 13:57

@MrsGrealish might just be too early at 8/9dpo. Will you still drink or stay cautious? So hard to know what to do!

santastolemycat · 16/02/2022 13:57

@IsabelHerna
My DS is two, would have had second one sooner but needed to wait for his funded hours at nursery to be on the horizon. Smile

BiscuitLover3678 · 16/02/2022 14:03

5dpo and feel no different except need to pee a lot.

I’ll let myself have one or two MrsG

Coastaldreamer · 16/02/2022 14:19

I'm feeling a lot more moody Blush and it's only 4dpo!

Also going out at the weekend and don't know whether to drink

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 14:52

If I get a chance I'll do a test tomorrow morning. The only weird thing was yesterday I had so many cramps I was sure AF was arriving early. Zero pains today. And no bleeding.
It's it's negative I'll defo be having a glass or 2 🥂. Xx

VolcanicProtectorMan · 16/02/2022 17:39

13dpo. Another bfn, cramps this morning and some spotting so sure AF is on the way 😒 could still make a November baby if I catch next month

Charl881 · 16/02/2022 20:52

Good luck for the morning @MrsGrealish! Would be great to get our first BFP on this group. Don’t forget your chicken burgers as well 😂

3dpo for me today. Determined not to symptom spot this month but not sure that will last, it never does.

MrsSamRowley · 16/02/2022 21:08

Hi ladies, checking back in. 8dpo and it's everything I can do not to test - the TWW just feels like FOREVER! Going mad symptom spotting convincing myself I'm pregnant and then not...such a roller coaster isn't it?!

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 21:17

Thanks! @Charl881 actually forgot the bloody chicken burgers was in a bit of a tailspin all day. Back pain back with a vengeance though so not too hopeful. Who's next on the list to test??

MrsGrealish · 16/02/2022 21:21

@MrsSamRowley it's awful! I felt really sick about 4pm started thinking oh this might be it then realised I'd only eaten half a Kit Kat all day 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

smiles39 · 16/02/2022 21:46

@MrsSamRowley it is such a rollercoaster 😞 I’m doing that exact thing of convincing myself at PG at various points of the day like waking in the middle of the night and just feeling like I’m 100% PG and it’s a girl. Now today I’ve felt nothing for most of the afternoon. I can’t tell if I’m imagining symptoms or not.

I’m 9dpo now, AF due 23rd - decided I’m going to test on Friday morning 🤞🏻 If I can hold out.

MrsSamRowley · 17/02/2022 07:00

@MrsGrealish @smiles39 sounds like we're all in the same boat! AF is due on Tuesday so think I'm going to test Saturday with a FRER - nervous to take it in case it's a BFN but also know I won't be able to wait any longer!

MrsGrealish · 17/02/2022 08:03

Bfn 😕 on to Dublin x good luck for everyone testing soon xx

Charl881 · 17/02/2022 08:50

@MrsGrealish oh no sorry to hear that. I hope you enjoy your wine though this weekend

@MrsSamRowley @smiles39 exciting that you guys are getting close to testing, living vicariously through you until I get close enough to join the testing madness.

I know what you mean, every month I’ve convinced myself I’m pregnant. I think it makes the disappointment worse but I don’t know how to stop!
