@My2boysaremyworld how are you feeling? Xx

Angie2018 · 20/07/2022 16:19

@BellaTheDarkOverlord sod work! I just want a baby 🤣🤣

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 20/07/2022 16:26

@Angie2018 me too! I want to go to work and tell them I'm expecting 😁Ill be symptom spotting from 1dpo haha I can't help myself! I haven't got any cheapies left to test, only a blue digital and a frer so I want to save them.

My2boysaremyworld · 20/07/2022 16:45

@Angie2018 not too bad it's a bit painful but more annoying. My ex just tried to catch me out!! Rang me when I'm on the school run trying to get me to agree having the boys a week each during the holidays!! Iv told him before it's a no! He's waited until the day before they break up to ask me!! He was so sneaky about it!! Xx

Angie2018 · 20/07/2022 16:45

@BellaTheDarkOverlord omg me too! I am lucky I love the people I work with and they love me and they treat me like a queen so I can come and go as I please!! So I would be excited to tell them but also want to reassure them I'd be back. I can't be bothered to symptom spot anymore cannot be arsed to let myself down when AF comes!!

I have so many cheapies and FRERs and two clear blue earlier and a digital with weeks but won't use any until AF late for sure. Not interested in a BFN 🙈🙈🙈🙈

Angie2018 · 20/07/2022 16:47

@My2boysaremyworld hopefully it will calm down soon and the pain piss off?? What a sneaky bastard eh! Why was he trying to get you to agree to that?? Xx

My2boysaremyworld · 20/07/2022 17:42

@Angie2018 cuz it's probably easier for him to arrange child care! He wanted this 3 on 3 off set up! I'm not seeing my boys for a week at a time plus Iv got work and sorted out when Iv got my boys xx

Angie2018 · 20/07/2022 19:43

@My2boysaremyworld yeah defo tell him to shove it! He clearly only cares about what suits him xx

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 20/07/2022 20:25

@My2boysaremyworld Good job he's an ex!

I've had no ovulation symptoms over last 2 days so unless I get some tomorrow I'll take tomorrow as 1dpo as I got my peak yesterday. Dh better be home in time to DTD tonight 😅

EdinburghGirl1 · 20/07/2022 20:49

@BellaTheDarkOverlord I got my peak today so just a day behind you I think. Managed to dtd last night despite the heat and will be trying tonight too once OH gets home from watching the football. Roll on the tww and time dragging lol

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 20/07/2022 21:40

@EdinburghGirl1 we'll be testing around same time it seems then! Hopefully this tww doesn't drag too much 😗

EdinburghGirl1 · 20/07/2022 21:41

@BellaTheDarkOverlord fingers crossed 🤞

OneMoreLittleFox · 20/07/2022 22:14

Pretty sure I am 6dpo (although could be 8dpo). I knew I should wait to test, but totally didn't wait. Got a shadowy line that I know can't be BFP as it is too soon. Why do I do these things to myself? !

My2boysaremyworld · 20/07/2022 22:37

@Angie2018 👍🏻🤣xx

My2boysaremyworld · 20/07/2022 22:43

@BellaTheDarkOverlord yes thank god he is a ex lol xx

Salpforyou · 20/07/2022 22:50

@OneMoreLittleFox lol we all do! It's coz we are human Grin

The TWW makes me crazy! The days go so slowly and I always feel so much further than I am. I need to wait as long as possible as I am not someone that tests positive particularly early.

Salpforyou · 20/07/2022 23:45

@OneMoreLittleFox how many BFPs have you had and around when did you get them? This is my first time so I'm here learning as well as suffering in this tww!

@OneMoreLittleFox how many BFPs have you had and around when did you get them? This is my first time so I'm here learning as well as suffering in this tww!

I have been pregnant a lot, so many times, I don't do the numbers any more as it is actually heartbreaking. Because I have 3 DC people tend to tell me how lucky I am, I am so very grateful for the children I have, but my heart breaks for those I have lost. I have generally tested positive between 4 and 6 weeks pregnant except when I was pregnant with twins that I lost before I conceived my youngest DC, with the twins I tested positive closer to 4 weeks pregnant but I lost them 2 weeks apart at 6 and 8 weeks. I have had faint whispery lines that just wouldn't get any darker or would be there one day and gone the next, then would reappear again, I went through a time when I started to think maybe I had a hcg secreting tumor (I clearly googled too much). I have had a lot of early scans and referrals to epac with blighted ovums, MMC, empty uterus but fluid in my fallopian tubes, suspected ectopic, my body tries to get pregnant with anything it can even on contraception. With my eldest DC I tested positive at 10-12dpo and then made the mistake of testing again the next day BFN, continued to be negative for 2 weeks. She grew in fits and starts, sometimes measuring small, sometimes measuring big. Went post dates, was heavy 9lbs and short 50cm and then within 2 weeks she was the size of an 8 week old and at 4 weeks she wore 3-6 month clothes. I now buy the cheapy tests that measure 10miu as the more expensive often measure 25+Miu and because the tests are qualitative and not quantitative I know you can't rely on the tests getting darker. I need to step away from testing as I will drive myself nuts. I can get an early BFP but it is more like a wishy washy slender ghosty come again go again positive.

Salpforyou · 21/07/2022 02:19

@OneMoreLittleFox wow. I'm so sorry for all your losses and truly empathise with you. No one has the eighth to trivialise those losses by focusing on the 3 children you have. Each one of those experiences is valid. I sincerely hope for nothing but good news for you this time around x

EdinburghGirl1 · 21/07/2022 06:49

@OneMoreLittleFox wow I'm so sorry you have been through all of that. It doesn't matter how many kids you already have, every loss is going to be hard on you. Hopefully the next few days pass quickly for you and you get a lovely bfp and a sticky bean

OneMoreLittleFox · 21/07/2022 07:45

@salpforyou @EdinburghGirl1 thank you. Hopefully I will get a BFP soon. Once we have our rainbow one of us will be sterilised, because I don't think we want to go through this whole journey again, we will count our blessings and call it a day.

Lucyintheskywithdiamonds1988 · 21/07/2022 08:01

Come on my period yesterday, so super emotional 😭

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 08:06

@OneMoreLittleFox Sorry for what you've been through. Heartbreaking x I hope this is your lucky month x

1DPO today I think. So it begins! It's going to be dragging so much.

TryTheNight · 21/07/2022 08:07

Question... Does anyone have any good tricks for getting/staying motivated to test for ovulation each day? I get sick of peeing in a cup.😆But I really do need to keep testing since my period is funky, so I haven't even figured out when I'm ovulating yet despite all the pee sticks.
