@Floralsandsmiles thanks for the tag hun! Xx

bringmearainbow · 03/04/2023 21:46

@Floralsandsmiles let's hope there's more bfp to come 🤞🏼 it's been a lucky group!

@Angelselevenx how you getting on? Done anymore tests?

Angelselevenx · 03/04/2023 21:48

@bringmearainbow I'm good thank you, still spotting but brown blood so hopefully nothing to worry about but called the EPU anyway. Did a digital earlier that confirmed pregnant, going to do the how many weeks test tomorrow to see if there's progression over the next week or so. Figured doing a digital and how many weeks might stop be obsessing over lines and how dark they are 🥲. How are you doing?

If I ever got my BFP, this is exactly what I would be doing! Well done hun! Can't wait to follow your journey and cheer you on from the sidelines @Angelselevenx xxx

@Angelselevenx what did the EPU say? I imagine it's just a bit of implantation bleeding if it's brown. Ahhh it's really hard to not obsess over lines but great news about the digital ❤️ I'm good will be 4dpo tomorrow it's going sooooo slowly 😂 I've got a tonne of things to occupy myself with but they are also going so slowly 🙄 never mind a few more days and I'll whip out a test 😂

Angelselevenx · 03/04/2023 22:02

@Floralsandsmiles honestly I was obsessing over the lines but realistically each test has different dye amounts etc and I'm so early at 13dpo I'm not gunna have dye stealers yet so no point stressing just yet (she says 🤣). Got my fingers crossed you get your BFP soon! 🤍

Angelselevenx · 03/04/2023 22:03

@bringmearainbow I had to leave a message, they'll call me back tomorrow but hopefully invite me in and have a check what's going on, I have a sensitive cervix anyway (I always bleed after smear tests) so hopefully just that.

4DPO! You're nearly halfway to being able to test, crossing my fingers for you!! X

Thanks for the tag.

AlleycatMarie · 03/04/2023 22:44

@Floralsandsmiles thanks for the tag!!

So, I convinced dh to dtd earlier but he couldn’t quite, ahem, finish. Annoyed but trying to play it cool as I think he doesn’t deal well with the pressure!!

Mushroo · 03/04/2023 22:50

@Floralsandsmiles thanks for the tag!

Based on my current forecast I’d be due 31 December so I’ll be here to the end! 😂

MilkyAndFluffy · 03/04/2023 23:38

@Floralsandsmiles thank you for the tag my lovely! I need to go catch up on the part 1 thread as I’ve missed a lot I’ve been so so busy which is a good thing for distraction but I’ve been sad not being able to keep up with the thread it’s my sanity net! but congrats to everyone with BFP’s and good luck to everyone waiting to test 😘how are you getting on? Where are you at in your cycle my love? @Floralsandsmiles

i think I ovulated today (got the LH surge yesterday according to strip tests) so did a lil DTD tonight (we tried yesterday but failed) but did the day before so hoping to still be in with a chance - fingers crossed!!

@AlleycatMarie ahhhh I feel you with the whole not finishing thing and the pressure - it is so so so frustrating isn’t it. I have the same problem with my OH which is why we can’t do the sperm meets egg method. I really feel for them as the pressure is on them to perform and provide the goods, I try not to tell OH it’s that time of month so he doesn’t feel too much pressure, but when I’m suddenly interested in daily DTD he kinda twigs on!! They do say every other day is still really good so could you try again tomorrow? Xx

AlleycatMarie · 03/04/2023 23:48

@MilkyAndFluffy looks like you’re one day ahead of me!! DH goes away late tomorrow morning so we will definitely try to dtd tomorrow morning. If so I’ll have the same
pattern as you as we dtd yesterday and hopefully tomorrow on O day. We could never do smep. I’m not very subtle, I went waving my static face at him whilst he was trying to work 🤣

HannahLouD · 04/04/2023 06:48

Thanks for adding me back in! 😊 I'll try not to spam with my craziness so much this time! 🙈😅💕

Natty83 · 04/04/2023 06:56

Not a great test from fmu this morning. This is 2.5hr hold 13dpo vs fmu 14dpo

RegardingPersephone · 04/04/2023 07:19

Hi all!
I think it was O day yesterday as I had my peak Sunday morning. Managed to DTD Sunday and yesterday and going to try Wednesday too. Partner is working most of the day tomorrow.
Having quite a bit of cramping yesterday and today which I don't think I felt as much last month. Think I might have got the timing wrong too last month!

Hope it is enough for one sperm to get there! 🤞

HannahLouD · 04/04/2023 07:28

@Natty83 sometimes people (me included) have stronger lines with anything other than fmu 🤞I really hope it works out for you!

@RegardingPersephone sounds like you're defo covered! 🤞

TunnocksTCake · 04/04/2023 07:35

Hi everyone 🤗 thanks for the tag @Floralsandsmiles I missed half of the other thread, had a really weird cycle this month after my chemical in Feb but was essentially ill for all of it with norovirus one week then a nasty eye infection the following week (and 3 lots of antibiotics!) which coincided with fertile week 😫 13dpo today and bfns so I'm out and waiting for af to show!
Congrats to all who had BFPS and fingers crossed for more to come!

Spotting question, have had a bit this morning - if I think I implanted on the later side, 10dpo-ish based on bfp being 13dpo, is spotting at 14dpo normal? Or is that too late to be implantation spotting? It was pink not brown if that makes a difference.
I never normally have any spotting at all. I think I'm going to have a crazy day for testing, somebody lock my bathroom cabinet and throw away the key 😂 did a digital with a 1hr hold because I opened the wrong packet 🤦‍♀️
Also I need to stop googling for my own sanity but I am reading that some people always test better in the evening than with fmu. So I am cautiously hopeful yet trying to cling to some healthy pragmatism.

Cindy1802 · 04/04/2023 08:22

Better line this morning at 11DPO...😵
