Anyone else 4dpo?
Feeling any different?!
I've always said it's a bit early but I'm open to hearing if anyone is!

Will do thanks.

Don't even know where to start with it all tbh. Probably wait for another 3 weeks to a month and contact the gp.

Good point I’ve forgotten lol I know that in my area you no longer go to the gp but I don’t know how you contact midwives either lol so I’ll have to ask my surgery as I think booking appointments are around 8 weeks so would have to get in contact around 6 weeks. It’s also all on an app now instead of being given notes. I think I’ve been so focused on getting a positive test that I forgot about what to do once preg lol x

@RainbowMum92 have you got any children?

Yes I’m very lucky to have 5 children. Although I’ve been pregnant 11 times.
Had 2 chemicals, 3 early losses between 6-9 weeks and a late loss. I was so sure we was done after our last miracle but hubby and the older kids have convinced us to try for one more lol do you have any children? X

Tbh honest it was okay.

SnookyPook · 15/02/2023 10:02

@Happyhappy39soon40 that's so lovely that it happened for you when you had given up hope. Fingers crossed it all progresses smoothly 🥰

@RainbowMum92 ah I love big families! So cute that your older children were all keen for a new sibling as well. 🥰

BeaKind · 15/02/2023 10:35

Hope you all had lovely Valentine’s Day (if you celebrate that is).

@SnookyPook when are you testing? Also so nice you had that feeling. I felt the same when I found out I was pg with my boy. Totally serene and calm. 🥰

I’ve given my tests to hubby to hide and told him to give them to me at the weekend when we’ll test again 😂 but it’s killing me not knowing what the line would look like today 😅

SnookyPook · 15/02/2023 10:43

@BeaKind haha love that you've roped Hubby in to help control your urges 😄

I'm not planning to test until the weekend although it feels harder with seeing everyone on the threads and especially those getting BFPs at 9/10dpo! But, I know what I'm like and even if it's a BFP at this stage I'd probably be doubting it or worrying about CP etc so I may as well enjoy a bit of 'ignorence is bliss' - if I'm not then AF will show up and that will be that. If I am then the test should be more conclusive at the weekend... 🤞🏻😬

@Mummyo1 i can see a shadow line. When is AF due. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I took two test this morning cause my partner thought the cheaper may not be accurate 🙄

BeaKind · 15/02/2023 12:10

@Mummyo1 that’s so frustrating. It looks like the pee hasn’t made it all the way across the window so maybe there wasn’t enough 🤔 can you do another?

@Happyhappy39soon40 I find them more accurate than frers now. Never get an indent in them. Ahhh that’s amazing. Congratulations!

BeaKind · 15/02/2023 12:12

@SnookyPook thats exactly how I feel now. I should have waited for sure! I’m just trying to ignore my faint one of yesterday and telling myself it’s not positive yet.

@SnookyPook thank you! I love having a manic house but most people think I’m mad haha! The kids clearly love it too for wanting more hehe. How are you today? X

SnookyPook · 15/02/2023 15:33

@RainbowMum92 little bit 'meh' tbh as I feel like not really any symptoms today and after the hope yesterday I'm doubting it all again and thinking I'm probably just on hyper-alert to every little thing! Just looking forward to knowing one way or another if AF comes now! How are you doing today? X

@SnookyPook I'm completely the same! Apart from the odd twinge and heartburn randomly in symptom free! Saying that though some of my previous pregnancies have ended up shocking me as I had no symptoms at all so I’m just driving my self mad for no reason lol I’m going to test on Friday though. When are you due on? X

SnookyPook · 15/02/2023 15:54

@RainbowMum92 sorry you're feeling the same! Due on Sunday so just a few more days of uncertainty to get through... 🥴

It must be even harder to know what to think when you've had previous symptom-less pregnancies! You really can drive yourself mad with all this can't you?!

@SnookyPook not too long to wait now! I’m due on Tuesday I think. Although this is my first month off the pill so it could all be out of sync x

RainbowMum92 · 16/02/2023 10:28

So I stupidly caved today at 9dpo but more stupidly got the wrong test! I got rapid response instead of early response lol I’m sure there’s something vvvvvv faint but now will have to wait until maybe Sunday to test when I’m 12dpo.
How is everyone this morning? X
