I’m almost 100% convinced I’m out now!

Really really hoping a December baby is the one. Anyone else?

@Bubblesandballoons I wanted to hold out until Tuesday (10dpo) but realistically I know I’ll be testing a cheapy from Sunday. Going to try not to buy any expensive ones this cycle though unless I genuinely think I’m pregnant.

MrsGrealish · 18/03/2022 22:07

This is very exciting @Bubblesandballoons! I'm working tomorrow then off till next Thursday so I don't know how I'll resist the allure of POAS

MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 08:01

Update on me. Pains so bad they woke me last night. Nothing now just incredibly sore boobs. And the tiniest speck of brown on toilet toll just there. It's either AF coming on or implantation but I'll will defo know in 2 days, I think a test would be accurate then xx

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 09:14

Oooh sounds promising @MrsGrealish. Yes should be accurate in two days of cramps are implantation.

I had a wave of sickness again this morning. I know it’s not really possible to get symptoms until after implantation and if your HGC is high enough for symptoms then it would be high enough for a BFP…. But still seems odd that two mornings in a row I’ve felt sick! I did get terrible morning sickness with DS. That said I do have a cold so could be part of that.

Bubblesandballoons · 19/03/2022 11:02

Ooh @MrsGrealish and @Charl881 they both sound very promising.
Feeling less positive today, despite being positive for covid šŸ™ˆšŸ˜‚. Luckily I just seem to have a mild cold, so now no work and time at home to now stress myself out and hope covid doesn’t affect anything 😩. Satisfied my need to test by doing a clear blue ovulation test and got a flashing smiley, so clinging onto the hope that’s a good sign my hormones are on the up šŸ¤žšŸ»

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 11:22

Ugh I’ve just found out a close friend is pregnant after trying for the first month. Obviously happy but difficult as well!

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 11:23

Oh no @Bubblesandballoons didn’t realise you were covid positive! Hope you’re feeling better soon

MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 11:38

Oh god the dreaded covid @Bubblesandballoons rest up and hopefully it'll be mild. My DH wants to go out tonight, I couldn't think of anything worse and also I'm on knicker watch for more discharge šŸ˜‚

@Charl881 waves of nausea are defo a good sign šŸ¤žšŸ¤ž

So hard. Although that was me with ds!

We started trying in December for a September baby and recently found out a good friend is due in September. She said it happened first try so I feel a bit Sad now and watching her stomach grow I keep thinking how much time has passed. Her first child and mine are the same age too so it does feel a bit rubbish.

@BiscuitLover3678 sorry about the bfn. How many dpo are you?
@Charl881 yeah got a positive test today. Those feelings are natural, hopefully come tomorrow you may feel better about it šŸ¤žšŸ»
@MrsGrealish šŸ˜‚ gotta love the knicker watch stage. So far I’ve been fine, been doing the housework as I’m at home today now. Have you persuaded him a nice night in would be lovely yet?

MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 13:40

Full disclosure I did an IC last night which was as white as snow @BiscuitLover3678

@Bubblesandballoons we are 'seeing how I feel later' I know exactly how I'll feel later quite honestly! It's likely AF starting but I'm taking no risks.

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 14:12

@BiscuitLover3678 exactly the same in that my friend’s DD is the same age as my DS! I knew she would end up pregnant this year; I just expected it to be me first. Obviously over the moon for her though.

BiscuitLover3678 · 19/03/2022 15:53

I’m still learning lots ladies because what kind of discharge means what? Or do you mean waiting for period?

OP posts:
MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 16:23

@BiscuitLover3678 in my case that's exactly what I mean. I've had a tiny speck of brown then pink then absolutely nothing since this morning.
I've only ever had implantation bleeding once and it was exactly like this.
However it may be early AF and I do not wanna go out with the possibility of feeling a bit wet (tmi) and running to the toilet to check. I want to stay home and brood and check in the comfort of my own home šŸ˜…
This week I've had thicker discharge so it's now gonna mean me checking a lot in the fear of red blood.
Ah glorious knicker watch šŸ˜†

MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 16:43

Thankfully the shop I was doing locum work in today closed at 1pm so I had a relaxing afternoon. Just me and my bathroom..šŸ˜‚ ttc is so glamorous

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 18:11

I’ve just ordered myself some FRERs to arrive tomorrow. Even though I promised I wouldn’t order any proper tests this month and just do ICs. I swear it’s almost like I think I can will myself into getting a BFP.

MrsGrealish · 19/03/2022 19:02

@Charl881 you testing tomorrow? I'm testing Monday at the earliest if AF hasn't arrived. Random nose bleed an hour ago..is that a sign? Everything can be linked to AF it's so annoying

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 19:11

@MrsGrealish I wanted to wait until Monday and I’m pretty sure I would have done had I not had the news from my friend today šŸ™ˆ I’ve ordered a two pack so I’m thinking one test tomorrow and one on Tuesday.

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 19:31

I took an internet cheapy and if I edit it and invert it there’s a line right? I mean I know I’ve totally lost the plot!

Charl881 · 19/03/2022 19:36

@BiscuitLover3678 I have no clue what different types of discharge mean but I have had some regularly since peak this month whereas o usually don’t have any, so if I am pregnant I will class that as a sign in future. Pretty sure it’s just because I’m paying more attention to it.

Last cycle I had a couple of brown blobs (sorry if TMI around what I thought would have been implantation but think it was just a fluke, for me it’s usually a sign AF is imminent.

With DS I noticed no changes but I wasn’t paying attention because I was far more chill even though we were on our 13th month of trying. Didn’t even realise period was late until the evening.

BiscuitLover3678 · 20/03/2022 07:02

Just waiting for AF now, probably Thursday

Charl881 · 20/03/2022 07:36

@BiscuitLover3678 you’ve got much more patience than me. Are you feeling totally better now? I have some sort of cold/ virus which I think is giving me symptoms which I then imagine to be pregnancy ones.

Did another IC this morning and had another very faint shadow. I wouldn’t call it as long as you can only see it in certain lights and/or if you edit it. It’s either the start of something or that’s just a thing all one step tests have.
