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

Just wanted to come back and update I got my (faint) bfp today at 9dpo with smu 🥰

@Gloopyhoop I see it! Congratulations 😊

Tested this morning at 8dpo and BFN, expected as I'm so early but I am getting so impatient for a second line😩

congrats to all those who have had their BFP.
I got another flashing smiley this morning on CD19 but just used a cheap test and got this. Do you guys think this is my peak? It’s two days late so hoping it is.
Also does anyone use the CB digital ovulation tests and test in the morning and evening or just the morning. Thank you x

@Ttcsecond I had this, because you're only supposed to test with the cb ones in the morning, I had a flashing smiley in the morning but OPK was v strong if not positive that afternoon then CB was peak the next day, so hopefully you'll get peak tomorrow it just wasn't strong enough this morning.
Don't know why you're supposed to use them in the morning but either way definitely try to dtd tonight

@TunnocksTCake
Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. I did indeed get my solid smiley this morning. Hoping to dtd tonight although both exhausted from the last week of it as thought my peak would be earlier.

Hi! I’m just coming to the end of my period on cycle 3 of TTC, so soon to be ovulating! I have a 10-11 day luteal phase and 25-26 day cycle. Worried it will be harder to conceive. Any success stories out there? Both myself and DH are 31.

Still BFN at 10 dpo, due af in a couple of days so was hoping that if it was going to be positive then it would have by now... or is that just hopefully thinking? Xx

@ukMummyof1 im same as you. Stark white at 10dpo. AF due on Tuesday. Think I’m just going to wait now. When I was pregnant with my first i tested around now and got a negative so waited for my period which never came and then got a positive at 16dpo.

I got a BFN at 8dpo. Going to wait until Monday 11dpo!

For anyone interested this link shows your likely you are to get a positive result at each day post ovulation

Low at 8dpo!

@buckingmad that's really good to know! Do you test for ovulation or go off of EWCM/app?

@redo18 just had a look at that link. That's really helpful, thank you! May still be time yet... although, I don't have any symptoms apart from headaches yesterday so think this may not be my month xx

@ukMummyof1 for my first I monitored EWCM, LH tests and BBT. At the moment I’m just checking EWCM And LH.

i went back and looked at my test and could see a really faint line. Any one know if CB are bad for indents? It did have colour too it so I’m hopeful! Will test again tomorrow morning or Sunday

Decided after all to go out last night after debating it and had a negative test yesterday morning and last night before I went.
This morning at 11dpo I think I have a vf line😁
Can anyone see it? Just really worrying now because I had a few drinks last night thinking this wasn't my month as this is a lot later getting a positive than my last pregnancy.

My last pregnancy was ectopic and I had the surgery to remove my tube, what do I do now? Should I be contacting the hospital for an early scan?? Xx

@ukMummyof1 Firstly congratulations, I wouldn’t say that isn’t a faint line for 11DPO! Different pregnancies will have different HCG levels. Maybe do a another test in a few days to check the line is getting darker.
Secondly don’t stress about the drinks last night, I’m sure it won’t have done at harm at this stage.
Thirdly, sorry to hear about your ectopic pregnancy. It won’t do any harm having an early scan if it helps with your anxiety about the pregnancy. Best of luck xx

Yay @ukMummyof1 that's a great line for 11DPO! This is great 👍 tentative congratulations! Get an early scan booked due to past issues and piece of mind (really sorry to hear for this pain you have been through). Xxx

@Ttcsecond thank you! I've got lots of cheapies still so will test over the next few days. I'm going to try In a few days to see about getting a 6 week scan to check the placement and hopefully everything will be okay🤞
When are you due on af?

@Floralsandsmiles thank you so much! Got a lot of nerves obviously but hopefully once placement is checked I can calm down a bit! DP and I are still unsure if we can even count it as a line because of how faint it is so I'll update in the next few days❤️

Of course @ukMummyof1 , it's smart to be cautious. Crossing my fingers for you! Please keep us updated! Xxx

@ukMummyof1
fingers crossed for you for the 6 week scan and that the lines get darker.
I’m not sure when AF is due to be honest. My chemical last month changed my cycle so I didn’t get a positive OPK until CD 20 which was Wednesday (15th). Will test next weekend X

Hello ladies,
hope you don’t mind me joining in.
congratulations on your BFP @ukMummyof1 :)
im currently 3-5dpo ( since Mmc last summer my cycles slightly vary), so impatient to find out as this would be my due date month :(
hope we have some more BFP this month and keep positive:)

Thank you everyone!

@Ttcsecond so sorry to hear about your chemical, keep us updated! Xx

So after I got my positive on Saturday I waited 48 hours to test again and have just tested and I don't think it's got any darker, could I be having a chemical?? 😥

@ukMummyof1 good morning,
the bottom one does look slightly darker ?
Why don’t you try digital and then after a week see if it changes to more weeks ?fingers crossed everything is going to be ok xx

Agreed @ukMummyof1, I think the bottom is darker. Do a digital! Xxx

They look soo light in person, feeling nauseous but I'm not having much hope... I don't even think it would come up on a digital yet😕
I think I'm going to get some FRER today and I'll do one tomorrow and one 48 hours after and see if there's any progression, ill probably also buy a digital too just in case🤞
