I’ve had 3 flashy smiles now, but have a feeling I’m going to have lots more! Been temping and they are just very up and down! Just trying to DTD every 3 days for now, and hope I get a static soon 🤞🏻!
Hope everyone else is doing okay! Good luck to those in the TWW!

Newmumwales · 03/01/2024 23:25

Been feeling twinges in stomach, womb, pelvis… (get confused where) today! I’m minding my own business and then I feel things and I’m like “I’m not symptom spotting I’m being good!!” 😂

@elleaddams hope your heartburn cleared and got it done lol!

H938 · 04/01/2024 06:56

@Peonies94 just keep going, you will get it, I think you have to catch it at the right time, someone told me to test on your second wee not first too. 🤞🏼

@LuceNumberTwo Hope today you’re feeling better. The ttc really takes over!!

@Newmumwales when will you test?

I cant say I feel anything this month - nothing to report! (Last two months i obviously had loads of pms symptoms that i thought was pregnancy ones 😂) another day down! X

I’m out this month.

AF arrived five days early and with a vengeance.

Baby dust to everyone else!

I'm sorry to hear :(.. if I end up getting af next week there will probably be a new thread made for next month

OK I've given myself the fear a bit with all these symptoms & taking that early test.

I don't even want to test Monday.. Because I really think I am pregnant & it's just a wait & see because I've been pregnant before.. I've bled it's been all over 😭 I know I shouldn't think that way but it's really difficult not to think this way

Lovely morbid thoughts of today! Sorry ladies 🙈

LuceNumberTwo · 04/01/2024 09:37

And now I've just learnt the digital ultra early tests are coming today 😳

Helppp🙈

siobhanmt247 · 04/01/2024 09:45

I think im out. Bbt dropped today :(

H938 · 04/01/2024 09:45

@LuceNumberTwo just do it 😂 well do a strip one first incase its too early then do the other one tomorrow (will you be 9dpo)

KittyFantastica · 04/01/2024 10:20

Please tell me someone else sees it and I'm not dreaming?!

I stupidly peed on the stick, not in a cup, so can't do another one. Do you think an early detection digital would pick anything up? I'm approx 12/13DPO.

Wanderingthroughparenthood · 04/01/2024 10:22

I see it!

MerryMissie · 04/01/2024 10:26

Yes @KittyFantastica I see it!!!!

I'm still very early in my cycle cd8 but dtd ever day so far ha!! I'm hoping I can keep it up for another couple of weeks.... so far its not a chore!!

KittyFantastica · 04/01/2024 10:32

@Wanderingthroughparenthood thank you, I feel like I'm going nuts constantly looking at it!

@MerryMissie thank you too! It feels unreal, so good to see I'm not imagining it. We DTD 7 days over 10 during my ovulation period. The thing is, I was tracking using two different types of digital machine and both failed to show a peak! I thought I hadn't ovulated. This all seems impossible.

LuceNumberTwo · 04/01/2024 11:20

I did it.. Its negative.. I think thats maybe normal considering how early I'd be. Or I'm holding onto that a bit. Why am I like this 😵‍💫😕

@KittyFantastica I can definitely see that line 🥰🥰

H938 · 04/01/2024 11:27

@LuceNumberTwo yes its early so dont let it get to you, maybe try on Saturday x

BiscuitDreams · 04/01/2024 11:39

Hello all! Can I join you? I'm dpo1 (maybe dpo2) today and I feel it's going to be a long two weeks! We've been TTC on and off for a year but mostly off, so this is the first month of actually properly using opks and looking at timings. I have been pregnant twice before and fell super quickly both times and I'm a bit baffled that it's not happened yet, but the on and off might explain it. 🤣 My previous pregnancies were 7+ years ago too and I'm 39 now, so I think the age is finally catching up with me. Eek.

Look forward to seeing everyone's BFPs soon!

BiscuitDreams · 04/01/2024 11:39

@KittyFantastica I can see it too!

LuceNumberTwo · 04/01/2024 11:52

@H938it's so hard... I hate being addicted to testing wish I could just wait & be patient. The thing is even when I test positive it opens another world of worry for me. So I don't know why I do it to myself!! 🙈

No I'm going to wait till Monday! The tests are hidden away by my partner. I'm going to seek therapy... Might get sectioned.. woohoo🥳

KittyFantastica · 04/01/2024 11:58

Thank you @LuceNumberTwo and @BiscuitDreams!

I got too excited and did a Clearblue digital, but it said not pregnant, so trying not to get my hopes up now. I guess the cheapie one could be faulty. I'm hoping my urine was too diluted on the Clearblue, but it's supposed to be super sensitive so unlikely now.

H938 · 04/01/2024 12:13

@LuceNumberTwo 😂😂😂 I know its soooo hard and the waiting is just too much. Also I totally get that if it does say pregnant then its all the what ifs, thats the bit that worrys me as my last pregnancy I miscarried and not tried since then 🫠 I feel like its all so much to think about. Also as soon as I get a tiny little pain im like thats it, its AF getting ready! Wow now i think im crazy too 😂 X

Wanderingthroughparenthood · 04/01/2024 12:24

I’m due to ovulate tomorrow so will have sex tonight and tomorrow again then will tell him to get to the spare bed for peace for a week ;) hahaha.
i am 100% not testing until day of period is due. I know I’ll be super tempted to but I don’t want to do the whole is it a line or is it not and have to wait days for it to become clearer anyway. Both previous pregnancies I had strong lines on period due dates so hopefully the same this time!

PeekABoo22 · 04/01/2024 12:38

I'm torn between being glad I haven't told my OH about when I ovulate and hating obsessing over it on my own. On one hand I think it's made DTD much more enjoyable because we are just connecting, having fun, no pressure on him, etc... But on the other hand worrying about it by myself is draining! 😅

Mummysparrow · 04/01/2024 12:53

I have had a small amount of blood this morning and I can't work out if it is implantation bleed or signs my period will start soon. I normally get a bit of blood a few days pre period but as my period has been all over the place if my period is on its way it will be an under 30 day cycle when it is mainly over 30 days. My test on Tuesday was negative and I am 12dpo today. I really don't want to waste another expensive pregnancy test

Newmumwales · 04/01/2024 16:35

@KittyFantastica CONGRATULATIONS darling!!!!!!!

@H938 i tested today like an idiot at 7DPO and BFN. I don’t think I am even though felt sicky today.

@LuceNumberTwo when is AF due? I’m mad too. Tested today at 7DPO. Whyyyyyyy. @BiscuitDreams I’m 40 and trying for number 2. Welcome

Wyewaving · 04/01/2024 16:54

Does anyone else use the Clearblue advanced ovulation tests (the purple one)? It's my first time using them, I've used their regular test before (pink one) but I thought identifying my four most fertile days would be useful.

Flo thinks I'm due to ovulate tomorrow (Premom says Saturday) but the CB test is still giving me the empty circle, I was expecting it to show a flashing smiley face by now if I was going to ovulate on either Friday or Saturday.

I've taken two OPK (Premom ones) tests today and they're 0.33 and 0.23 so not sure if I'm going to ovulate late this month.

SLLR · 04/01/2024 17:04

Hi, Has anyone had a positive test yet? Or possible implantation bleeding.
I had my period the 11-17thish of December. Had sex on the 26th December and on the 2nd January and today (roughly 8/9 days post ovulation I have had dark brown spotting when I wipe (implantation bleed?) My boobs have been sore and my period isn’t due for another week 🤷‍♀️. I’m going to to try an hold off until Monday 8th to test
Thanks
