TTC Feb 2023

[ukMummyof1]

Can't find a thread for this but I'm TTC #2. In on CD1 as AF arrived this morning... feel free to join this thread xxx

@Caths456 i can’t see anything just yet but don’t lose hope! AF hasn’t arrived so I’d wait and see how things go up to the 14th? Do you have any symptoms?

@Tryingtobe123 how is pregnancy going so far? Do you have any scans booked in?

@Wright31 @Strawb28 hello!! Hope you’re doing well. How have you all been over bank holiday? I guess just waiting for the next cycle? I’m CD26 and 6DPO and yet again convinced myself it could be despite only really DTD once around ovulation 🤣🤣🤣 it’s a rollercoaster!

I’ve had a lot of cramping 8/9 DPO and thought maybe it’s implantation, also had horrendous headaches on those two days, but have a feeling it was PMS. We used the pull out on my ovulation day and day after. So it’s not like we’ve an amazing chance!

@Caths456 mine started off so so faint! So don’t be disheartened!

@smldnlove good so far 🤞🏼 just have the odd bit of nausea every now and then and my boobs are ginormous (other half obviously pointed that one out didn’t he) and really really tired so napping in the day now!

Got one booked for 5th May so I should be around 9 weeks then! Time goes so slowly though

@Tryingtobe123 yeah but I could even see your realt faint lines! Mine is in my head I think!!!

@Tryingtobe123 for comparison this was
ny last pregnancy at around 12 DPO or so

@Tryingtobe123 how exciting!! I bet you can’t wait to see the scan with your own eyes. Will feel much more real for you then!

Also, I am potentially going mad. Looking for guidance, thoughts, self control, dignity all of the above 🤣

I am 7dpo and tested today with a Amazon cheapie. Pretty sure it is a BFN but have gone mad on the line eyes and also inverted it like a real delusional animal and here we are.

thoughts??? Is it just me? Pics here, inverted and normal. I can’t actually see anything in the normal pic but in person it’s like the tiniest shadow of nothingness…

Definitely! It doesn’t feel real right now as apart from a few symptoms I don’t really feel anything! I did another pregnancy test today just to make sure 😂

7 DPO is so so early! Don’t be disheartened if you’re getting negatives now. Wait 3 days and test!

@smldnlove can you show us the original

Sorry yes it didn’t attach! Here. I know I’m being stupid doing this. I’m gonna wait now till Friday, it’s so hard! Ahhhh

can’t see anything there tbh

@smldnlove in the same boat as you! I reckon I’m 100% not pregnant! Took an Amazon cheapie too and could swear I saw the faintest line but at 12 DPO or so I would expect a. More obvious now. It’s so hard isn’t it.

@Caths456 Its so hard yeah it’s like we are torturing ourselves!! Hmmm I can’t quite there but to be honest even 12dpo is still technically too soon so I wouldn’t count yourself out. When do you expect AF?

@smldnlove yeah I know! According to flo im due my period Friday I have a 14 day ish Luteal phase, we used pull out on ovulation day and day after, don’t know why I’m torturing myself but it’s made me think maybe I do really really want a third.
I have a 2 year old since Sunday and my little girl will be 1 in 5 weeks time.

@smldnlove waiting and hoping that this is your month!! I'm CD13 I'm not doing any lh testing or anything this month. I've just started calorie deficit and excercise to shift some weight before really getting back into it. Just having a not preventing attitude at the minute!! X

Hi all

Ttc First baby 👶 Started last month. I'm 38 and currently awaiting AF. 13dpo and hoping for a BFP.

First time on these forums.

Any stories of ladies that are older ttc?

@FamilyofTwo Hi! Welcome to the chat! Have you done much testing up to 13 dpo? Any signs or tests today? Fingers crossed for you!!!

There are a few different threads on here where 35+ TTC mums have been chatting yes, I’ll have a look and share some if you like. Not sure the ages of us few here but I’m 29 and TTC #1 and also getting married in 8 weeks! Crazy time…

think I’m also out this month @Caths456 heres yesterdays test on an early response cheapie test. 9dpo today..

@FamilyofTwo ohhh exciting times. Keep us updated!! Hope it goes well for you. I'm 29, 30 next month and I've been trying since July with one chemical in October x

Hi ladies

Unfortunately bad news I think here. Started bleeding yesterday and I am now having clots.

pregnancy unit won’t see me as it’s over the weekend so have to wait for the EPU to open tomorrow.

i haven’t got a good feeling about this though

@Tryingtobe123 omg I am so sorry to hear this 😢 how many weeks are you? I know it's scary but don't lose hope just yet.

@Strawb28 only 6w 4d so really early, I’ve passed some really
big clots and all my pregnancy symptoms have gone now. Plus having a good bit of pain. I have lost hope but I’m weirdly feeling more content now I’ve started passing big clots and it’s consistent bleeding rather than stopping and starting - that was stressing me out so so much more

@Tryingtobe123 oh gosh so sorry to hear this, that sounds really traumatic for you. Everything crossed for you, I do see stories of this happening and things being fine so please don’t lose hope. Are you going in tomorrow for a check up? Any more updates on how you’re feeling?

Oh god guys, it’s happened. The one month we only DTD once in my fertile window as our wedding is in 7 weeks!!! 🙈🙈💕💕 I’m really scared!

Sorry. Yes I had a miscarriage

congrats on your positive 💖

@smldnlove omg!!!! I am so so delighted for you! What a wonderful surprise! How are you feeling? Any symptoms?

@Tryingtobe123 i am so sorry for your loss :( I'm sure you are heartbroken 💔

I'm 5dpo today. Not feeling much hope for this month again lol.
