TTC February 2023 babies 👶🏻 🥞🌨🌿☀️

[BiscuitLover3678]

So I’m out AGAIN!

Trying to move forward.

Anyone else hoping to conceive a Feb baby?

I’d be due around Feb 20th if this month actually does anything!

Ok, perfect 🥰 I will enjoy it and just have a few @HR2022 🤍🤍

BFN for me on a FRER today so pretty sure I’m out as AF due on Wednesday. So gutted, I absolutely convinced myself I would fall pregnant this month. Must have been why I imagined all the symptoms too!

Just wanting AF to arrive hopefully on time or early now. Got a Mira device to try for the first time next cycle but feeling pretty hopeless.

@Charl881 I'm really sorry about the bfn. The first sign I was getting a bfp this month was lack of sore boobs x

Anyway I'm not really part of this thread but since we've been going through this together I thought I'd let you know that I started miscarrying yesterday. I wrote a mini essay on the ttc april/May thread when someone asked me how I was so if you're bored you can read it.

I'm done with ttc, it's too painful 😢but will dip in and out of mumsnet to hopefully see lots of bfps esp yours and @BiscuitLover3678. I really wish everyone all the luck in the world ❤️

@Charl881 I don't think you have read Mrs Grealish's comment right x

Oh my gosh I’m so sorry I didn’t read it properly at all. @MrsGrealish I’m so sorry, both for your miscarriage and for my insensitive comment! I just thought you meant you were stepping away from these boards, I skim read it. My heart goes out to you, I know how wanted this was. Sending you love and of course understand you’re taking a break away. Hope you’re getting some support from DH xx

Sorry to hear both of these messages @MrsGrealish and @Charl881 sending you virtual hugs 🫶🏼

Hi guys!

Sorry to hear the bad news 😔

I'm wondering if anyone has an advice, I went for a scan on Sunday 15th due to a miscarriage the month before and was told I'm mid cycle (so assumed ovulation would happen soon) I used ovulation tests everyday and was always low, I did a cheap pregnancy test today as I thought I would be around 8dpo (early I know), the test was negative so I thought I would do an ovulation test which has come back quite strong.

I have attached a pic, could I be ovulating now? When I was pregnant last month the ovulation tests also came back positive then, I'm on CD 23 is that late for ovulation?

Let me know your thoughts

Hi @Kt12344 sorry to hear of the mc 😞. I reckon if preg tests are negative and ov tests are positive, you're more likely to be ovulating late this month. Possibly delayed because of the mc? X

Thank you for your reply, I was thinking that too my cycles are different every month too so it does make it more difficult. I thought I might have missed my chance this month but maybe not🤞🏽

Hi all, sorry I've been away this weekend with shocking internet. Im sorry to hear some bad news on the thread ☹️
Hope everyone is doing well!
AF is due Thursday for me, assuming my cycle will go back to 28 days.

I’m so sorry to hear the bad news this evening 😔 I hope everyone is keeping strong, or at least on the way to.

I’m elbows deep in TWW at the mo and starting to get symptoms, but keep flip-flopping between ‘defo just PMS, so AF must be on the way’ and ‘but what if it’s implantation?’ Either way, my poor boobs!

I did a digital test this morning which was positive and confirmed my previous test ☺️💕

Aww congrats @ZoeGren !! How many weeks are you?? :)

Thanks ☺️ 4 ish, so EDD between 27-30 Jan. But I was (very) late with my first so I'm predicting a feb baby!

@ZoeGren congrats that’s great news. Must feel fab to see it in writing.

I’m in proper TWW limbo, had a positive on a non FRER test but FRERs and internet cheapies all negative. So just waiting.

@Charl881 oh don't be daft I'm guilty of skim reading too. I didn't get a convincing positive on an FRER till at least 4 days after clearblue showed a clear positive xx

Congrats @ZoeGren !! Took first FRER this morning- bfn. Potentially 10dpo. Just want to get a positive or period to come now as bored of being in limbo!

Also getting boob twinges, still tired, achey, slightly dizzy/hangover feeling at times, waking up early, pelvic twinges. Haven't had a period for so long as been on the mini pill so can't remember was pms is like for me. Hoping I won't feel like this every month.

Good luck everyone

The wait is horrible, but one positive test is really good so hopefully your wait will be over soon 🤞🏻

Thanks 😊 symptom spotting is so tiring, I hate not knowing. I didn't get a positive test until 14 dpo so maybe you'll be similar?

Congratulations@ZoeGren such good news! 😊
I'm on CD 27 today. My last cycle was a bit longer than usual at 32 days so if AF is later than Thursday, I'll try hold off testing till after the 32 days.
How's everyone feeling this morning?

Still having the cramping which started last week, stabby twinges and painful, swollen boobs which I don’t normally get with AF, but I think I’m going to put it down to very early PMS symptoms, could just be that my body has gone a bit haywire. Or ‘your body is doing crazy shit!!’ as DH put it. 😅

BFN this morning, 12DPO. AF due Friday, so probably won’t waste any more tests unless she’s actually late.

Sending baby dust to all! ✨

Hi everyone,

I'm currently 15DPO and one day late for af. I tested with easy@home cheapies on 8DPO, 9DPO, 10DPO, 11DPO, 12DPO - all bfn. Then did a FRER in the evening of 12DPO - also bfn. Didn't test at 13DPO, and got bfn on another cheapie yesterday at 14DPO. I thought yesterday af was surely coming so stuck a pad in and took a couple of paracetamol for the cramps but she's not here and I'm very rarely late. I feel like I could come on at any second but I felt like that when I got pregnant in April 2021 (got bfp at 4 days late and ended in mc).

I've got a FRER and some cheapies. I don't know whether to wait another day or test again but I've obviously missed fmu today!

Fingers crossed for you @reddyeddy!

I just impulsively squeezed out a bit of wee and did the FRER - bfn! Grrr! Late periods when you're ttc and not pregnant are just cruel!
