TTC January 2024 miracles ✨️ 💖

[Floralsandsmiles]

Hi everyone, welcome to those joining and hello again to my soul sisters from the December thread. I saddened to see you still, but happy to have company.
May this thread bring us all luck xxx

@buckingmad congratulations! That’s pretty positive!

@RG9895 they look like positive tests. Digital depend on which one you use, a lot are 25miu only the ultra early digital is 10miu

I’m 3dpo. Just plodding for now. Will be 10dpo next Sunday and I have 5 easy @ home cheapies so will probably use them. I won’t be buying frer this cycle, but the early boots pink dye tests. Really liked them

That’s confirmed then!

@buckingmad wooo!! 😍😍

@buckingmad congrats!

@Mummyme87 I’ve always had indents with FRERs and never understood why everyone recommended them! Might also try the Boots one if I test this month.

@buckingmad yayyyy woo hoo big congrats xxx

@Aquarius93 they used to be great and no indents when I was ttc DS2 back in 2016/2017. But heard they changed and I’ve had multiple indents this time round. The boots ones were recommended, they aren’t technically quite as sensitive as frer 10miu vs 6miu but when they’re negative, they are definitely negative.

@buckingmad ah beautiful positive tests!! Congratulations

@buckingmad huge congratulations 😍😍 I might have to get some boots tests in stock that's such a beautiful line eeee so happy for you 🎉🎉

@buckingmad congratulations!!!

Thanks everyone!

@ddaisynner definitely recommend them. They’ve never given me an indent or evap and seem to give a nice clear line really early on. Plus cheaper than FRER.

Congrats @buckingmad !!! 🎉

@buckingmad yay! Congratulations on your BFP. It must be lovely seeing the word "pregnant " loud and clear 😁

Hi all, congratulations all those with your BFP’s 🎉
I think I know the answer to this and ultimately time will tell but just looking for some advice.
I’ve had BFN the last couple of days and the most recent this morning (a line appears well after the time but I’m sure this is just invalid) today I have had some mild cramps and abit of pinky red spotting just once and nothing since.
Boobs are sore and I feel sick.
Do we think 13DPO would be too late for implantation bleeding? Shall I just expect the inevitable AF tomorrow or hold on to a small glimmer of possibility ✨

@Dinosaur39 I think really only time can tell. I’ve read that 14dpo is the average for a positive test, so there must be plenty of people who don’t get their positive until after they’ve missed their period.

But I’ve also read that amongst users of a fertility app, most people who didn’t have a bfp by 12DPO were probably not pregnant. I think that might be because tests are so sensitive now.

So, I guess you probably know it’s not impossible that you’ll still get a positive, but I think in your position I would try not to get too hopeful. I know how hard it can be to get your hopes up and then have AF appear. I’m sure we all know how painful that can be.

@Dinosaur39 how sure are you of your ovulation date? Any chance it was a bit later?

@Dinosaur39 I don't want to bring your hopes up it really could be af turning up. I had this a couple months ago and I had a positive test as well that went blank with af being a day late and was told it was a chemical which then pushed back my ovulation peak by 4 days :(

But I always say you are never out until af appears. I know people that didn't get a positive until a week after their af was due and I assume they had late implantation. I think it's 6-12 dpo implantation could happen so you might be on the late end of that. 🤞 for you

--
I had stretching pains all of yesterday in low right pelvic area bbt 36.89 and this morning bbt 37.22 so I'm hoping I've caught implantation. I'm 8dpo now so gonna give it two days and start testing

@ddaisynner that sounds promising! Keeping fingers crossed for you

Im also 8DPO! and had awful pinching and prickling in my groin area on and off all day yesterday and felt so sick i had to have a nap. Woken up this morning and feel absolutely normal again. Its like it never happened!

Its our 1st month TTC and didnt do BBT but wish i had. I'll be testing in a few days too 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Thank you for your replies.
As I knew it was very much just AF but sometimes it helps face reality but writing on here so thanks for the replies.
Onto another month, think I’m going to have a chat with my partner and try that SMEP for this month.
I just want to feel like we’ve put the most effort in but tbh we only DTD once this cycle as it was my first cycle since MMC so I’m not
too surprised.

@ddaisynner that sounds like good news! Let us know how your tests go! Good Luck!

So I’m 12DPO today; tests up until yesterday where negative, I haven’t tested today becasue I’ve just basically told myself im out this month; just wiped and have some pinkish blood on my tissue.

AF isn’t due until Friday; could this be implantation bleeding this late after ovulation? 🙈

I have attached a picture in hope someone could help me. I feel like it could just be AF showing up as it’s not mucas like at all.

I did a digital today and it actually said pregnant!!!! I am worried it only says 1-2 weeks as I'm over a week late but they are irregular and I had no idea when I ovulated so we will see 🤞🏻

@RG9895 congratulations! Lovely to see it in writing eh? I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about re saying 1-2 weeks, as you say there could be a few reasons

ps I wish my nails looked that good!

@HavinKittens thank you!! Yes it for sure is! Really makes it real 😁 I hope so! 🤞🏻

Haha aww thank you!

How lovely @RG9895 congratulations!!

5dpo today. Had some discomfort in left groin today, boobs not sore yet…. Trying to ignore TWW. I’ve got some cheapies in so undoubtedly will probs test on Saturday which is 9dpo, and will get some boots early detection in also

@Mummyme87 thank you! 💕

Good luck to you! My fingers are crossed 🤞🏻
