Hoping for a June BFP 💖🌷💖

[Skylark1990]

Hi everyone, thought if start a new thread for those of us heading into another cycle and hoping for a BFP in June 🤞 I was on the May thread briefly but decided to pause TTC after two early miscarriages this year. Was actually lovely to have a break 😅 but excited to try again this month. CD 1 for me today!

I have a beautiful 20 month old daughter already.

Hopefully we can all keep each other company on this rollercoaster! X

Thank you @Gizzy93 , hope it happens for you soon too 🤞🥰

Congratulations @Skylark1990 !!

I tested again this morning at 12pdo and had convinced myself it would be negative by now, was about to throw it in the bin and noticed a faint line!
Its very faint so not sure if you can see, bit worried it's too faint for 12dpo but hoping it progresses 🤞.

I can see it @Bella9992 ! 🤞🤞🤞 For you! Implantation can happen any time up to 12dpo right so maybe it was just a little late bloomer 🥰

@LeftTheWashingOut according to the graph at the top of the screen, -2 before ovulation is best day! 😘

I'm by no means out of the woods as of course it's still 3 days before my period was due to arrive but just thought I'd mention things I have done a bit differently over the last month or two, which maybe helped me get a BFP.

This month I did two sessions of acupuncture and also a session of reflexology. I started taking a better quality prenatal vitamin with real folate not folic acid (easier for the body to absorb). I have been taking the cytoplan pregna plan one but Terra Nova is also good. I am also taking an omega 3 supplement and did take coq10 for a few weeks but actually stopped as worried it was giving me stomach ache. I wore socks on my feet after ovulation as warm feet meant to mean warm uterus! 😂 I also cut out coffee a few days before ovulation and just have one or two teas (black/green) a day plus herbals. Ive also focussed on getting more sleep, breastfeeding my DD a bit less having night weaned her and also cut back to about 3 times in the day (up until recently I was still basically just doing it on demand but at 20 months felt she was ready for some firmer boundaries and it's definitely helped, think my body has a bit more energy now!).

I temped a bit this month but not loads and did do the LH tests. We DTD on day before and day of ovulation this cycle. I had planned for it to be two days before but I ended up ovulating a day early! And we couldn't also DTD earlier as I was unwell about 4 days before haha.

Anyway as I said who knows if this stuff helped but thought I'd mention! And I'm just hoping the bean is a sticky one ❤️

@Skylark1990 my cycle buddy so very very happy for you, I wish you a very happy and healthy pregnancy 🥳❤️

PS I meant MC not Mac in my previous post haha no Big Macs here 🤣

Thanks all ❤️

Thanks for that graph and those tips @Skylark1990, and congratulations on such a strong line - certainly no squinting there!!

And congratulations @MooBugz - I think time to celebrate with a Big Mac, your auto correct must have been placing an order

Hi what does SMEC mean ? TIA x

Has anyone had experience with hcg blood test results? I called for mine just and all the receptionist could tell me was that they’ve come back satisfactory. Found mixed answers on what this could mean, hoping someone can shed some light before I spend the weekend going mad!

I've got a sore throat tonight. But it's winter and my house is very cold (flood affected so we don't have walls at the moment). I'm guessing it's from that

Just catching up after a busy week....and so many lovely BFPs 💕💕 congrats guys! Sorry for those who have had the horrid AF visit - 🤞🏼for next month.

Sensible advice @Skylark1990, I need to have a look at taking a better combination of supplements. I've been a bit slack recently.

There is a guideline of hcg ranges per week of pregnancy and they'll be looking for doubling of the hcg values if you have done serial tests.
Single hcg value only really gives you half the picture. If the doc is satisfied with what he's seen, then I'd rest assured too @CTommo. I can understand the worry though, wishing you good luck.

I'm 8dpo and getting very nervous and impatient. Don't feel very hopeful but anytime i have to myself I end up getting quite worked up about it. I have zero symptoms...

Congrats on BFPs and goodluck with BFPs for everyone else!

@Dia12 thank you so much for the encouraging words.

My dr ordered the test as all my positives have been really faint so was just to check levels. I assumed I’d be told what the levels are but all the receptionist could tell me (no drs available apparently) was that is came back as satisfactory and system said to communicate to patient. Surely if the hcg was too low or negative then there’d be a comment to call me or book an appointment right? Going crazy with concern :(

Well still no AF but i guess I'm out for this month as I'm supposedly 16dpo according to app and got a BFN on a FRER. Good luck to everyone who is waiting ✨

Thing that is puzzling me is I have absolutely no menstrual pain And i usually have this without fail for days before and then continues after it starts.

Well all, AF is due today at 15DPO. Haven't tested since 12DPO which was a BFN, but no AF symptoms or cramps or anything....am I likely to get a BFP if I have been completely negative at 12DPO?

Hi guys I've been lurking on this thread, love seeing the recent positives 🥰🙌 fingers crossed for those of you still waiting.
I'm only 4pdo so have a longgg wait until I can test! Ive used LH tests this cycle for the first time 🤞

Hey guys, just a quick update from me, I had an early scan this morning and they couldn't find anything so my 'period' they said must have been a miscarriage ☹️ so back to trying again for us.
How's everyone doing?

@MamaSJ15 Sorry to hear that

If you ovulate late does your period also tend to be late ? Can't help but cling on to a tiny bit of hope 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hi all. I’ve been following along for a few days so thought I’d finally join in. Congrats for all the positives in this thread and I’m so sorry for those that have experienced BFNs/chemicals/MCs 💐

I’m 7DPO today. Cycle 1 of trying for baby #2. Symptom spotting like mad. Had a wave of tiredness yesterday around 3pm. So bad that I had to take a 15 minute nap (supposed to be working from home haha) and I had weird twinges on and off all day. Then I woke up at 2am with a terrible sore throat that felt exactly like the acid reflux pain I had with DS1 (now 13 months old). I have a load of expired tests sitting in my cupboard so I’m going to start using them from tomorrow to satisfy my need to test! If I see a hint of a line between tomorrow-11DPO I’ll use an unexpired test to check. Then I’ll use a FRER 12DPO if AF doesn’t arrive before then. My LP has been between 9-11 days since my periods came back after having DS so if I get to 12DPO I’ll be happy. I’ve been taking vitamin B6 this cycle to try to increase LP length

BFN today so I expect I will just wait for AF to arrive!

So sorry to hear this @MamaSJ15 🌼🌹 I hope you are doing ok! Take some time to recover if you need it xx.
