@AnaFox I know how you feel. I feel the same...
I feel like I really want #3 but at the same time sometimes I have so many doubts. When we were in Canada my son was obsessed with his baby cousin. He eventually asked me when we will get a baby like that & that made me feel sad. I feel like we all want it. It just doesn't seem to be happening though 😔

I'm about to start my new job on Monday which is full time. Part of me is wondering how I will balance everything. But still a part of me still wants another child. I feel like it's now or never.

Having had 2 chemical pregnancies back to back, I do worry that my age might be an issue. Ideally I don't want another child when I am 40 or above (personal preferance). I think I would struggle health wise with it. This leaves me 2 months to try though 🙈 Let's see how I feel by the end of April if still no good news.

Moneywise if you are worried about your outgoing costs etc and want to save money, I can recommend an app called 'hotukdeals'. It's basically a site/app where people post deals and should help you save money on numerous things. Worth taking a look. Especially useful for parents as kid's stuff costs so much and on this app you will find loads of stuff on offer/sale.

Ah that's good to know, didn't know about that app 🤔

I don't know if I can see a shadow of a line on this test or not. It looks stark white, but I also think I see "something". Am I going mad? I'm either 9 or 10 DPO.

I've had another look, and I think I'm just going mad! 😂

@Welshcake15 I do see the line!!!! 🫣🙏

Welshcake15 · 03/03/2024 10:20

@TT82 currently going with it is probably just an indent, but hopefully I'm wrong. The more I look at it the more confused I am! Time will tell.

TT82 · 03/03/2024 11:30

@Welshcake15 it is still early, but test with pink lines not blue, so I think very hopefully good sign! ❤️

Welshcake15 · 04/03/2024 06:39

I've got a possible line on a Boots early detection test. Again, very faint! I'm either 10 or 11DPO and my temperature has risen again this morning.

@Welshcake15 definitely a positive now ❤️ maybe do a pause in testing for a day or two (I know how difficult it is)...

Welshcake15 · 04/03/2024 07:08

@TT82 I'll try to not test for a couple of days (no promises, though! 😂)

Annoyingly, we're going to a farm park with the kids tomorrow and it's lambing season. I'll just have to keep well away from the sheep!

Welshcake15 · 05/03/2024 10:06

OK, definitely not just a shadow! 🥰

Oooh great news @Welshcake15 !!! Congratulations 🥳

Welshcake15 · 05/03/2024 18:49

Thank you, both!

WhatTheEll · 05/03/2024 19:32

@Welshcake15 huge congrats!!!

Rose38 · 06/03/2024 21:28

@Welshcake15 congratulations!! Great news.

I finished my AF on Thursday last week. And on Sunday my ovulation test looked positive to me. Next day the test had a strong line too. After that it became faint. Now that was only 2 days after AF had finished which is weird. But I was feeling really rough feeling nausea, boob pain etc.
The last couple of days boob pain increasing again &.constant hradaches. Ovulation tests are now getting darker again slowly. This is the second time this happened to me...another month I had two instances where I tested positive for ovulation then the line became faint & then a few days later another positive. Except this time ovulation happened much sooner after AF...or the body tried to ovulate and failed maybe...has anyone had this happen before?

Congratulations to those who have had BFPs since I was last on - took a step away because I was finding it all too much

however after trying for 14 months this happened this morning 🤯

period is around 3 days late. Managed to sit on my hands until this morning

Got a positive pregnancy test today on easy@home. I still have 4 days left till af is due. This time I'm not going to get excited as previous times I had chemical pregnancies. Just keeping 🤞 this time it sticks.
