Hi ladies
Lets join the party for all Aug ttc girls

So I was using wondfu opk and saw the line getting darker over a few days. Then the clearblue digital showed a flashing smiley 2 days ago along with wondfu opk showing a darker line but not as dark as the test line.
Yesterday I got a flashing smiley again but wondfu opk line was very very faint!!! How could that be. I tried again later in the day and same thing. Did I miss the surge???

I impatiently did a test at 8am as I saw some of you say morning gets the best result. I’m only 9po, my AF is not due til next Saturday and I swearrr I can see something here! Do you think I should do a digital today or wait?

I definitely see something! Do a digital!

I’m 10 days DPO and not sure I’m ready for the disappointment so not tested yet. I’m not due AF until Thursday so was going to wait rather than testing but I doubt I’ll hold out.

xxcxdonxx · 20/08/2023 11:30

@chelau tentative congratulations, I see something too!

I got my bfp this weekend too, this was our 4th cycle trying after my mmc in March. I’m anxious but trying to be positive!

Hi ladies hope it's ok to join. I'm TTC baby#1, been TTC for a few months but I've stopped cycling which is really annoying. Haven't had a period since June, so this cycle has been almost 9 weeks so far. Tested multiple times and blood test a few weeks ago, definitely negative. Hoping it might just happen anyway if I have super delayed ovulation but who knows. Baby dust to you all x

babano2 · 21/08/2023 09:15

7dpo today, major temp drop this morning? Obviously can’t tell if this could be implantation due to conflicting evidence re temp drop re implantation dip.

crampy the last few days, sharp pains this morning

ttc baby number two, first month trying and following SMEP which successfully worked with my oct 22 baby!

Think I may be having some implantation bleeding but I'm not sure.

How would you know if it was?

xxcxdonxx · 21/08/2023 16:15

@Lushfanatic123 i don’t think there is anyway to know for sure. What is your bleeding like?
I had a random day of fairly light bleeding (more than spotting) at 6dpo which was new to me and a bit worrying but I can only assume it was implantation. From then until 13dpo it was on/off brown spotting.

Hope that helps!

Lushfanatic123 · 21/08/2023 17:35

It is like spotting, is a light orange/rust colour.
Started this morning along with mild cramps.
This is not normal for me in my cycles.
I'm not sure when I have ovulated but my app estimates 11th - 17th with 16th being possible main day. So potentially 5dpo or more

xxcxdonxx · 21/08/2023 17:40

It could very well be! Only thing to do now is wait, good luck! 💚

Lushfanatic123 · 21/08/2023 19:04

Thank you, hate the wait lol

Did a digital one today and got a BFP ☺️

@chelau aww brilliant news! Congratulations, delighted for you 🥳

Hi,

Im a mum of a 3 year old. I’m ttc again for the first time after 2 miscarriages. One was missed at 11 weeks and the second was at 7 weeks but HCG never went above 300! Both miscarriages, I got caught within a month of being off the pill. Iv been given progesterone and aspirin. Any advice on how to cope a 3rd time round.

TheBirdintheCave · 21/08/2023 23:14

@Butterflyrainbow1 I'm three down now so don't have much to offer unfortunately! I'm sorry about your losses though :( Interesting that they gave you aspirin. Did they diagnose you with anything after the last one?

TheBirdintheCave · 21/08/2023 23:15

@chelau Congrats again! :)

Wannabemummma · 22/08/2023 10:33

12 DPO and I caved and took a test but it’s BFN :( guess I’m just waiting for AF again then!

TheBirdintheCave · 22/08/2023 10:34

@Wannabemummma I'm sorry :(

MrsNT · 22/08/2023 13:07

Still bfn and no sign of AF

We ran out when I had flashing smiley. We did it the following day and hoped for the best. I’m 13 DPO and AF is expected tomorrow but I’m still hoping these cramps are implantation rather than AF but I know they probably aren’t. Anyone else like this?

ReginaPhalange12 · 24/08/2023 19:01

This TWW is dragging 🙄 6DPO today, I'd like to hold out to 9/10DPO but I have some FRERs so may test 8DPO (and disappoint myself with a BFN 😂). Hope everyone is doing OK, congratulations to those who have had recent BFPs ❤️

Lushfanatic123 · 24/08/2023 19:26

I need help!

I did a test but I'm unsure of results as line is not going the way it says on the leaflet?

What do we think?

Lushfanatic123 · 24/08/2023 20:31

Thanks, that is so annoying!

Lushfanatic123 · 25/08/2023 08:26

Not sure if I'm going crazy, do yous see anything?
