THE DINO CLUB #1

[Lila34830]

Follow up of the two following threads of TTC Baby number 1 🦕🦖

@KT199i was actually
going back in our feed and it made me so nostalgic to see the massive roller coaster we have all ridden together 🎢🥹 you were on your holiday weren’t you ! So I guess it was a huge distraction too !
tomorrow we are super busy, so it will be very easy to just not think about it ! I went to look back at my CP tests and they were rather dark though ! They weren’t squinters! I think it I was positive I would book at 6 week private scan tbh just for reassurance halfway through the 12 week wait!
would be “hilarious” to have a positive after DTD only once and on ovulation day lol. You guys will probs be the first to know!

me again , good old Dino who said she isn’t reading into symptoms, guess what ? I am a litttle bit because I have really bad menstrual lower back cramps and I’m 6/7 dpo 😅 we shall see where it leads to, but it’s pretty noticeable for a mid luteal phase as I still have 6 days to go until AF… I can’t remember whether I do have this on a negative cycle now ! I need to go through my flo app and check

I’m fine! I’m too busy to be worrying today, I don’t have any early tests left but will try and find some later and test again tomorrow. AF is due Tuesday/Weds so I’ll know soon enough

I did gently knock my tummy with a shopping bag last night and had quite a sharp pain which makes me optimistic!

Has anyone here had a Hycosy? I’m booked in to get one on Monday

Fingers crossed for both of you @Lila34830 @Toppstileslover!! but it’s so hard when you get your hopes up and then get disappointed 😩

Sorry @Clara202 No I haven’t, hope it goes well. A lady on another thread I post on has just had one. They’re meant to be improve your fertility too for a few months after! Hopefully it sends some luck your way!

thanks @KT199, could do with some luck!

Well I just did an early test and it was the most negative thing I’ve ever seen. I must be completely imagining tummy things!

Ironically I was due to go to the consultant the day I had my procedure to remove the MMC so I’ll go to the doctors for a referral this week. I’m 37.5 and it’s nearly June — got to stay on track for goal of being pregnant this year 😂

Girl I’m so sorrry!
i think you said you didn’t track ovulation this month so you could be super early Post ovulation?
im 7dpo. I’ve had the worst back cramps all day yesterday and I was woken up by a pain / burning sensation in my uterus that lasted about 2 minutes tops. Did an early test too and obvs negative 🤣
so now I have to buy more tests since I only had one in the house 🤣 I don’t have sore boobs or anything like this so maybe it’s just progesterone ramping up for AF and nothing else on my side

Oh no that’s so rubbish to hear @Toppstileslover and @Lila34830

Hopefully it’s just that your both too early for it to show on a test just yet. 🤞🤞

@KT199@Toppstilesloveri guess the next few days will tell!!
🩷🤞🏼

Same!!!! I literally never have even a period twinge and I genuinely got woken up by cramping earlier in the week. So strange. The even weirder thing is I had a sip of wine the other day and just couldn’t drink it. Anyway I’m now clearly crazy. It’s fine and the first time we tried but just very strange as I have felt so funny!

bodies eh 😀

@Toppstileslover bodies do the weirdest things when we kind of don’t need them to !
I have ordered 2 FRERS. I am only 8 dpo tomorrow , period is due on Thursday so I am planning on testing Monday … 9 dpo !

Eeeek good luck @Lila34830 !! On my bfp that stuck I had NO symptoms apart from pinching the night before my first positive test at 9dpo (albeit super light) so I thought I was totally out! Xxx

Thank you lovely !
8dpo, BFN on FRER this afternoon on an hour hold. I am so relaxed this cycle though weirdly, like a very peaceful feeling where my heart doesn’t pound when I’m waiting to check the test, which I like I must say!
I will not test tomorrow and wait until 12 dpo I think !
i just have normal pms symptoms, occasional back cramp, sore boobs and headache, textbook PMS for me so we shall see!

Hey fellow dinos, 10 dpo for me and it now feels like it’s been 84 years (lol).
im in the office today so it will keep me busy. Thinking of testing tomorrrow. I have 1 CB digital ultra early.
AF is due Thursday. I feel fine no crazy symptoms, my usual PMS back cramps and slept terribly last night with nightmares ! Which can be AF coming for me. we shall see !

Don’t know if this makes a difference but when I was trying and because I’m crazy obsessive and was testing every day I used the cheap HCG strips and the first day I got a positive I did a Clear Blue extra early too and that wasn’t showing positive for another 2 days! Think it was around 11DPO on the cheap test and 13 on the CB xx

@HE93Carfff this is the only test I have left and I really don’t want to waste more money 🤣 I read sensitivity is 10miu like the cheapies so idk anymore..! Because if I buy cheapies and I am not pregnant this cycle we won’t be ttc for another year as we said we were taking a year off !
decisions decisions …. Alternatively I could test on Thursday when AF is due ?

It’s so annoying isn’t it!! Everything gives conflicting info!
I just didn’t want you to be disheartened if you got a negative like I did in case it was just too early! X

No you’re totally right ! But equally I read some people getting bfn on FRERS and bfp on CB digital ? So odd !
when I had my CM I tested positive at 11 dpo I think ! (Checking
flo ….) yes I did !
my luteal phase is 11 days so it’s always quite tricky to know when to test because I feel like waiting for AF due only makes you 11dpo comparing to someone with a 14 day LP where they would have a strong chance of a positive test if actually pregnant !

Yeah it’s deffo a whirlwind! I’ve everything crossed for you and like you say you’re more relaxed this month and less pressure! Xx

Thank you I shall keep the thread alive for a few more days 🤣🩷

Fingers crossed for you @Lila34830!! I think not testing helps with the mental game so I’d hold off as long as you can. It’s more likely to be a final answer too the longer you wait.

Any update from you @Toppstileslover? I think you said you was due AF today right?

Very true @KT199! One of the unusual thing I’ve had - the only unusual thing
really cause the rest is typical pms - is since 7/8 dpo I’ve had an itchy nose 🤣 maybe it’s allergies! I normally don’t suffer from hay fever. It’s like sneezing sensation but I don’t always sneeze. Very odd!

I found that I got an obvious BFP on the CB early but the cheapies were questionable (real squinters!!) at the same DPO - even though they’re both the same sensitivity! Boots early are really good too! Although, the CB gives bad indents, when it truly is a BFP it’s super obvious! Xx

Not sure on the itchy nose being a symptom but who knows 🤣🤣 anything is possible!

I agree with @Gemmaemilyx CB and Boots on both my positives were very obvious. The cheapies there was also a clear line but I don’t really find them too reliable as so many people get nasty evaps and indents!
