Ahh congrats @Confusedmermaid1 !! Definitely positive, and way darker than a VFL!! But understand the cautiousness!! Fingers crossed it's a sticky bean 🥰🙌🏻

Sunch · 10/12/2024 08:50

@Confusedmermaid1 super congratulations!!!

Sunch · 10/12/2024 09:15

AF arrived this morning - this group has been super helpful and I’m really glad I joined this cycle. I have felt at ease throughout and although it’s not the news I wanted, it’s okay. I too will be taking a Christmas break and will get back to it in the new year 😊

Mals2022 · 10/12/2024 09:21

Congratulations @Confusedmermaid1 🎉

Mals2022 · 10/12/2024 09:25

Feeling really deflated at the moment, decided to try to be relaxed on this first cycle and just try to track EWCM but its CD16 for me today and no sign of any EWCM at all this cycle. I've tracked EWCM for the past 6+ months ready to start trying so why on the first month we start trying I've not ovulated? Regret not using OPKs now cause at least then I would have known.

You could still start them, I ovulated CD25 last month & it’s normally CD17. I didn’t get any EWCM until about CD23 so maybe it’s just a bit delayed for you this month?

@Confusedmermaid1 Congratulations - I hope it's a sticky one!

@Sunch - a break can be really good for the soul, enjoy the festive period and get back on the horse in Jan ❤

Hey all, just got back from holiday and tested this morning (16 dpo) as my period was late, got a BFP - which is super exciting, we took this last cycle relaxed and I didn't track and I was a lot less stressed by it all. Feeling good (maybe too good with zero symptoms which has me worried a bit) but I'm just trying to enjoy this pregnancy and hope baby sticks this time.

Baby dust to all who have got BFN or AF and wishing all the best for the next cycle, and congratulations to those with BFP and everything progresses well ♥️

lynzmb · 10/12/2024 11:41

Eek congrats @Confusedmermaid1 and @woulwouldlovearoast - all the best ✨💖

Congrats @wouldlovearoast hope it's a sticky one 🥰🫶🏼✨

3 days late and negative pregnancy test. Just come here to tell someone I’m feeling confused and frustrated!

That’s lovely news! Congratulations! A lovely holiday and a wonderful Christmas present too ♥️

SarahB88 · 10/12/2024 12:47

Aw congrats @wouldlovearoast that’s brilliant news! Also love your username 😂

rebecca199 · 10/12/2024 12:50

@wouldlovearoast @Confusedmermaid1 congratulations both!! Xx

rebecca199 · 10/12/2024 12:52

6dpo today and already can tell I'm going to be out this cycle. I start cramping for AF normally around now and the cramps kicked in this morning!
Going to call doctors when AF arrives as I have a short luteal phase and have had a total of 3 losses so I'm not feeling too confident. I do have a 19 month old daughter so I know it can happen.

Time isn't on our side as my mum is very unwell and I just really want to give her another grandchild while she's still here 😢

Sorry for getting emotional and deep but TTC this time round is so hard. I don't understand why it's not happening for us :(

Marie1990x · 10/12/2024 13:18

@wouldlovearoast congratulations! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy x

Marie1990x · 10/12/2024 13:21

Pretty sure I’m out this month, bfn at 9dpo so I’ll be joining you girlies that are in the awkward Dec/Jan phase 😂. If I carry on the same pattern as the last few months, I’ll be due to ovulate on 30th December, but I can never really tell as my cycles like to alter and keep me on my toes.

On the plus side I will be enjoying alllll the Christmas cheeses and wine in the meantime

KT199 · 10/12/2024 13:33

Congrats @wouldlovearoast and @Confusedmermaid1 🫶🏻 I might see you over on the pregnancy threads, good luck to you both!! Xx

Congratulations ladies! 😘

Hi everyone. Hopping on this thread I've been quiet the last few cycles because I wanted to take a break from it all. Currently ttc after a loss at 8wks last December, no baby dust since then. However, I'm in a pickle. Cycles are usually 26-27 days. I'm currently on day 32, I have the sickness, tiredness and fatigue and no sign of period as of yet. Took a test last night and this was the result. V faint or a shadow? I've attached all the times me and my partner "did it" last month. Could this mean I ovulated late and therefore have a delayed period if it's this late? Any advice would be appreciated xxx

This was the same as me and ended up a BFP! Keep testing just to see line progression. Congratultions!

Is it a viable line though? I'm half expecting my period to just surprise me

Tally89 · 10/12/2024 14:49

Hey just checking in to see congrats to everyone who got their BFPs so far! V encouraging! I think I am out this month as I have zero symptoms other than a few cramps which I get before AF anyway. Due on at the weekend. Sigh

Although it seems like quite a few ladies on here had a BFP the month they had zero symptoms so I'm holding out a teensy bit of hope!

SarahB88 · 10/12/2024 15:17

Anyone else getting loads of watery discharge or am I just strange?
