@Brunette1989 thank you. We have the top insurance cover, fingers crossed. I know it’s not common for them to cover fertility.

CD6, probably start doing CB digi tomorrow

ScaredSally · 22/10/2022 21:28

Anyone testing tomorrow? I'll be 12dpo and unsure if I want to use a cheapie stick or wait abit longer

MendaciousMabel · 22/10/2022 22:23

Where do people get their cheapie sticks from? I’ve only ever used clear blue in the past!

thelma57 · 22/10/2022 22:50

@MendaciousMabel I get the easy @ home box which has 50 OPKs and 20 pregnancy tests, it’s on Amazon and I think around £17 so good for what you get! I’ve also got some one step ones but not sure on them yet. Good luck!

ScaredSally · 23/10/2022 00:01

@MendaciousMabel i got a pack of 4 from boots think they were £5

booksandtea9 · 23/10/2022 04:49

You guys!!! I tested every day from 8DPO and got negatives every day until 12DPO and got a BFP with FRER. I couldn't believe it and used Clear Blue the next day. I'm so excited 😍

Congratulations @booksandtea9 , how lovely to hear! :)

MendaciousMabel · 23/10/2022 08:32

Aww congratulations @booksandtea9 😁

ScaredSally · 23/10/2022 09:16

Almost 3 months exactly after my little man was born sleeping I have my BFP... I'm honestly terrified, we weren't actively trying until we got our test results (due next month) ...I don't know how to tell my partner or how I feel... I don't want to plan a funeral for another child, coffins that small shouldn't excist

Sparklythings1 · 23/10/2022 09:57

@ScaredSally it will all be okay ❤️

ScaredSally · 23/10/2022 10:03

@Sparklythings1 its a lot of emotions I didn't anticipate. Just got to take it a day at a time

and congratulations @booksandtea9 !

MendaciousMabel · 23/10/2022 10:17

Oh @ScaredSally i don’t have any words of wisdom but I am thinking of you ❤️ Like you say all you can do is take it all one day at a time for now

Littleheart5 · 23/10/2022 10:25

@ScaredSally congratulations to you, even in such tough circumstances, and to you too @booksandtea9

Sparklythings1 · 23/10/2022 10:27

@ScaredSally exactly that, focus on the small wins. Today just take in the fact it’s positive. Then if you wanted to go for an early scan work towards that, then the 12 week scan and so on. Maybe pencil in other nice things to do to ‘take your mind off it’ (easier said than done) just to try and get through the first bit. I’m sure this is your time and itl all work out just fine

shibeshibe · 23/10/2022 10:38

11dpo today and seeing a very faint line on the frer 🤯 fingers crossed it gets stronger in the next few days!

ScaredSally · 23/10/2022 10:48

@Sparklythings1 i get an extra scan at 8 weeks from my bereavement midwife and then 16 weeks I'll meet with my little boys consultant and decide if we want invasive testing...I'm hoping to avoid fetal MRIs this time round... just keeping everything crossed for a healthy pregnancy

MendaciousMabel · 23/10/2022 10:59

Fingers crossed @shibeshibe ☺️

Ncl31 · 23/10/2022 11:08

@ScaredSally
I can’t begin to imagine how you feel.
Talk it through with you OH and take each day as it comes, I’m sure it’s easy for anyone not in your shoes to say try to relax.
take time to enjoy yourself and keep your mind active.
Wishing you all the best and sending lots of hugs x

thelma57 · 23/10/2022 11:12

Bless you @ScaredSally I hope you’re okay, try to take it one step at a time ❤️

Congratulations to @booksandtea9 and @shibeshibe 🥰 Hopefully this is turning into a good luck thread!

Mummyme87 · 23/10/2022 11:26

Congratulations @shibeshibe

and also congratulations @ScaredSally and lots of love to you also. It is a scary time but you will be well cared for. Take each day as it comes

thelma57 · 23/10/2022 12:18

Good job I carried on testing as I just got my peak today on CD19 @Olegia ! So time to get down to business! We’ve also been DTD in the run up this month which we normally miss so 🤞

Also, sorry I missed your question last night! I was off the pill from October 2020 but we were using condoms until October 2021 so fell after a couple of months, since then though nothing but only been properly trying since summer time Xx

Purple29 · 23/10/2022 13:12

@ScaredSally can't imagine the feelings you are having. But congratulations and I really hope everything goes well for you.
Also congratulations to everyone else with their positives. Hope this is a run of good luck for the thread 🤞🤞

Congratulations to all those with BFPs

@ScaredSally I really hope you're doing okay ❤ I have everything crossed for you, we're all here if you need to chat xxx

I’ve had v v faint lines on 3 tests now (Asda and boots). 2 chemicals in the past 3 months so this will be my third time conceiving in 4 months. Period is due weds so I’m hoping if I wait to test again then I’ll get a darker line 🤞🏼
