Hello everyone!
Last cycle I found some lovely TWW buddies on here, can’t find a thread yet this time so I’ve made one!

I’m 4dpo TTC a rainbow after 3 early losses. We have a 2yo little girl already!

Any cycle buddies care to join me?!

I tested again this morning, 12dpo, lines came up quicker than yesterday and are definitely more visible. Don't know if you can see them? I have some tests coming today and if I see lines tomorrow aswell I'll do a clearblue Friday as that's when AF is due xx

This pics more in focus. Why is it so hard to take pictures of pregnancy tests 😂

Slightly darker again today on the 25ml, might try a Clearblue tomorrow!

Wow, HUGE congratulations to those who have got their positives this month!! I can definitely see the lines in all the photos shared... super exciting! Please keep us updated on how you all progress.
My AF arrived yesterday, so that's me out this month... onto the next! xx

user1480703514 · 18/09/2024 09:27

@Hope543 so sorry. Fingers crossed it's your month next month, I'm on 12dpo, due 14dpo so I'm hoping mine get darker. When I have been pregnant, my bfp on 14dpo due date haven't been blazing until 16/17dpo

Exciting eeeeek

Tested again this morning, 13dpo, cheap sticks getting darker and got a good line on another test. I feel a bit happier now. AF due tomorrow, if no sign of that tomorrow I'll do a clearblue i think.

How are you getting on @MrsKurz @Pheebz

This all looks great! Your 13DPO line looks similar to my 14dpo line. I already had a positive digital by this point so I'd say go for it.

I'm doing well! I didn't test today haha, a bit of a milestone as I've been a testing freak since my faint lines at 12/13dpo. I might test again tomorrow, but I'm not sure yet, I might leave it a few more days then make that my last one.

Other than that doing well, no more spotting, enjoying the first couple of weeks where I don't really have any symptoms yet. I'm travelling to Leeds to see my friend next week so I'm realllllllly hoping I can enjoy that and symptoms hold off til I'm back. I'll be 6 weeks exactly when I travel home, which is when my symptoms started last time

user1480703514 · 19/09/2024 09:52

What dpo are you now? Yes I was panicking yesterday but feel better today lol I had a MMC at 8 weeks in August and surgery at 10 weeks so I'm just a nervous wreck. I've had one period so 2nd ovulation and can't quite believe it. Where are you from? I'm in the UK so will need to book my first midwife appointment for 4 weeks time.

That's good, yes try and enjoy it! Hope you don't suffer too much xx

Pheebz · 19/09/2024 14:43

Hello! I am good, I did another test and it’s slightly darker again (I think… hard to tell). I don’t really have any symptoms yet which is kind of freaking me out because I was already feeling sick with my daughter by this point when I was pregnant with her. I guess I was expecting this time to be the same, but they do say every pregnancy is different!

Great that your tests are still looking good @user1480703514 are you going to join a birth club on here once the digital has confirmed everything? What about you @MrsKurz ? I have joined a may 2025 group on BabyCentre as I used their app with DD, but maybe I should shake it up and try mumsnet this time!

Pheebz · 19/09/2024 15:03

Fuck it, decided to do a Clearblue 😄

WOOHOO!!! SO GOOD! Ahhh I'm so happy for you!! Will you come join us in the Whatsapp group/FB group?

I also thought fuck it and bought 2 more tests today, these will be my last 2 (they come in a pack of 2 only lol). I will test tomorrow, and Sunday, then I'm done. It's been good to have a day off

Yay!! Isn't it great to see. It took us 18 months to then lose the baby at 8 weeks in July, I love seeing everyone's BFP but always wished it was me. Can't believe we've been given another chance, I'm so grateful ♥
I get paid tomorrow and Hubby says I can't buy 'a proper test' I.e clue blue until my AF due so first thing tomorrow I'm buying one haha not sure what he thinks I've been using so far 😂

Hahaha yeah I get you. I’ve only bought 1
weeka indicator clear blue so far. Took it at 13 dpo Nd it said 1-2. I’m not sure whether to do another one in a week or so to see if it goes up, or whether to leave it as I think it’ll stress me a bit.

To be honest I did get one last time and it said 2-3 then the following week it said 3+ and it was lovely to see. You can get a triple pack off amazon, a blue dye and 2 digital for £13 so I'll probably order that again. Its hard to compare to last time i was pregnant and what I did or what I'd do again as we lost it so I'm trying to just do everything by the book then at least I did everything I could. I'm taking folic acid now and have been for a month I think and I'm getting some prenatal vitamins today. Took a test at 5am this morning and they are stronger lines. Didn't take a pic as I went back to bed 😂

user1480703514 · 20/09/2024 06:28

14dpo day of AF due. Happy with my lines this morning 🥰 absolutely no sign of period. Still in the not believing its real stage....

@user1480703514 amazing!! Great lines! I did another one today which is either 14 or 16dpo depending, but great progression I think.

yeah I’ll think about the digital weeks one - I live in Switzerland and they are v expensive, but I’m visiting the UK next week so might pick one up, take it while I’m there and if it’s 2-3 get another one for a week later. It definitely stressed me out seeing 1-2 at 13dpo as a lot of people I’ve seen get 2-3 by then, and I was already stressing that my tests were faint.

It's supposed to be weeks from implantation? So if your 14dpo it'll show 1-2 weeks. The following week would be 2-3 etc that's how I've understood it lol technically today I'm 4 weeks pregnant but it should show 1-2. I was looking at my pics from August and my lines are exactly the same, by 16dpo I had dark lines which is exactly what all the website say, 2 days after AF due. The whole thing drives me mad 😆 ill keep testing, I have the dip sticks and one more test.

Ah so not being in the uk what happens with your midwife appointments? Ive already done a self referral so I'll have an 8 week midwife appointment and a 12 scan booked and sent to me in the next few days

Ahh ok that’s good to know, yeah I’m happy it looks “dark” today.

so it’s actually a good system here, you go to a gynaecologist directly; and I see mine every year for my smear test. They do a first appointment and scan around 8 weeks, then 12 weeks, then you have a monthly appointment and they tend to scan every time if you want it. My first one is 10th Oct! Should be 7.5 weeks by then

Oh wow, jealous lol we get midwife appointment 8 weeks, scan at 12, appointment 16, scan at 20 then appointments every 6ish weeks. Since covid they've added a scan around 32 week scan to see Growth, position etc xx

I went into town this morning and saw 2 clear blues in home bargains for 4.99 and I couldn't resist 🙈 this came up is seconds. I'm convinced now 😂 I'm not gonna buy anymore, I have a little stash to do one a day for a week or so. I think todays the first day I actually believed it

Hey, how are we all doing? I'm still testing like a crazy person but I think my lines are OK. Feel very alone in this stage as we're not telling anyone apart from my boss until the 12 weeks scan. It's going to be a long 8 weeks..... I am 16dpo today ♥
