New thread ladies - please add anyone I've missed 💕

@MrsCristiano how many DPO are you again? Sit on your hands! Hopefully they next few days will fly by with it being the weekend!

@FfayeN do you have any DC of your own? You are still young and AMH really isn't that important unless doing IVF as it shows how much stim drugs to give (or something like that!) one of my friends was told she was infertile with a AMH of 3 and is now pregnant so I wouldn't worry about AMH too much.

@Margo34 We started trying about a year later than I wanted due to DH having a rough patch at work and being incredibly stressed. I had a melt down and basically said it's now or never. Sadly, here we are a year later, 3 miscarriages under my belt, I'm no further forward. I've started having some tests done, I had my bloods taken last month, no idea the results as the NHS seem to have lost them but I'm having an internal check up next week to see if have have adhesions from my c section etc. Getting DH checked too. I totally know what you mean about putting head in the sand, I have been delaying hoping a sticky will come along to save the day but no joy. I'm the same age as you too. I'm praying for twins. Or triplets. No joke I would be delighted with a multiple pregnancy!

@TheBirdintheCave I do wonder if we need to have the cut-off point conversation, just in case and as much as I'm loathed too. I guess it was always assumed we'd cut off once we had x number of DC, but now I think it will have to be a cut-off at x-age instead.

They don't prepare you for struggling with TTC or the general twists and turns in life, do they?!

@bunnykins123 yeah me too with the dreams of multiples!

@bunnykins123 none of my own no. I will be satisfied with one, just need that one to bloody stick!! My AMH was under 1, but at the moment I'm still ovulating so we're cracking on and not thinking about it 🥰.

@MrsCristiano how many DPO are you now? Let us know how you get on in the morning. Hoping you see that little line xxx

@FfayeN as long as there is an egg, you stand a good chance of conceiving 🤞

@Margo34 give me all the babies! 😂

@Margo34 I’ll still have more, will just feel a bit sad about the age gap

@bunnykins123 I wouldn’t be mad at twins either 😂 would surely speed up the whole ‘I want 4 kids’ dream 🤣

@FfayeN 8dpo today so still early for a cheapie

Had my peak, so ovulating tomorrow roughly and boy can I feel it! Seeing DH tomorrow night and Sunday so fingers crossed I haven't missed it by then, he's already on standby for some urgent DTD 🤣🤣🤣. 4 cycles after my MMC it appears my body may be back to 27 day cycles again, which is unexpected but hopefully come at the right time 🤞🏼

@MrsCristiano If you're prepared for it to not show a line, but know you're still in with a chance then test away 😘 xxx

I finally started getting darker (0.56) OPKs, hurrah!

Re. age gaps, originally I always wanted the standard 2 year age gap ideally, but in the event the age gap was 2 years 10 months between my daughters, and no only was it fine, but I think I would have struggled with a much closer age gap, as DD1 has Down's syndrome and couldn't walk until a few months earlier. This time, DD2 would be nearly 5 and DD1 nearly 8 and I'd be absolutely fine with that 😊

@FfayeN I am not prepared for a bfn 😞

All the best of luck soon!!! Hope you can enjoy the process too 😉😊!!
(they say it helps!!)

Well ladies looks like my BFP has gone down the drain 🙄

@mummatara oh god lovely hopefully this is a blip or a wonky test but I'm so sorry. 😞 Have you feelings of AF approaching?

@MrsCristiano nope had nothing the heartburn came back yesterday but I don't get heartburn 🤷🏼‍♀️ no AF symptoms yet we shall see I know it's the risk of testing early but still couldn't help myself 🤦🏼‍♀️ could be a dodgy test but I also did a cheap strip that was very blank but I know it's a test that says 25 but was still showing blanks when I was trying to get my negative and I was way over 25 so I don't think it's a reliable 25 test

@mummatara oh no 😥. What a rollercoaster. We're all here for you. It's so hard not to test, I think someone already said on here because they're so sensitive perhaps this always happened more often we just never knew about it. Please keep us posted and sending you support in the meantime 😘. @MrsCristiano same as the above, it's so hard not to test but you have to do what's right for you xx

I personally am going to hold off for as long as possible. I have a holiday in France and my work make it quite hard to be discrete about pregnancy so the longer I can be normal, the less build up incase it all goes wrong again 😕 xx

@mummatara oh I'm so sorry 😢 maybe test again tomorrow just to see if it's a glitchy test though. Which cheapies are you using? Are you okay? Big hugs from me 💕

Bfn on a cheapie for me at 9dpo couldn't hold off now wishing I had 🙄

@FfayeN thank you I will

@bunnykins123 thanks lovely I'll try again tomorrow but won't get my hopes up too much. Cheapies are mom med. I'm weirdly not that bad I feel sad because I want it so much like we all do but I think because I know it does happen with a lot of frequency that sort of gives me some comfort 💕

@MrsCristiano 😔 keep your head up lovely, it's so early still xxx

@mummatara Oh no, that’s shit ☹️ Hope you’re feeling ok. This TTC rollercoaster is a complete nightmare at times. Hopefully just a blip and it was a dodgy test for some reason.

I’m 10dpo and have had a few pre-AF-like cramps the past couple of days. My temp took a small dip this morning too so am not feeling hopeful. Going to see what the temp does in the morning and if it’s still high I’ll use the FRER.
Glad I’ve made it into double figures for my luteal phase anyway 😂

@mummatara I'm so sorry, that's so rubbish when you got such a lovely line yesterday...

@MrsCristiano I'm not sure cheapies are great for 9dpo. The BFPs I've got from them at 10dpo and 11dpo have been proper squinters, so I wouldn't say you're out yet xxx

@MrsCristiano oh hun I'm really sorry 😢 it is still early for a cheapie though so it doesn't mean you are out just yet.

@mummatara I know, it's so hard when you want something so badly. I totally agree, try to find the positives in an otherwise really poo time. Really hoping AF stays away for you 🤞

@pangolin84 ah no! Hopefully the dip doesn't mean much and AF stays away.

@MrsCristiano last time I was still getting negative on cheapies at 12dpo!! Please don’t feel bad yet
