@Marie1990x that’s such a good way to look at it and a great resolution. Happy New Years and all the best for you in 2025 ☺️

@MyGardenDaisies let us know how you get on, good news that you haven’t had any cramping yet. I’m not due until Sunday but I’m away now (until Saturday) with no tests so that will force me to relax hopefully! X

littlefox90 · 01/01/2025 20:29

Happy new year everyone. Hopefully by this time next year will we all have babies or bumps ❤️

MyGardenDaisies · 01/01/2025 20:31

@MyGardenDaisies I can see it! Can you get a first response early test?

Kinderbueno89 · 01/01/2025 20:38

@MyGardenDaisies I can see something too! How many days post ovulation are you?

CoolSummer89 · 01/01/2025 20:39

@MyGardenDaisies didn't even have to squint! Congratulations 😊

Marie1990x · 01/01/2025 20:42

@MyGardenDaisies eeek can definitely see that! No squinting required 😊. Tentative congratulations 🥰

Miffy1994 · 01/01/2025 20:43

Congratulations @Lemonolive09! I’m with you- already have a child so thought I’d be more relaxed but I’m still full of anxiety about TTC/ovulation/peaks/the whole lot! Didn’t push to see the mental health midwife last time so didn’t end up getting any help but think I’d be much firmer this time at getting the help.
Got my fingers crossed for you @MyGardenDaisies!
Finally, finally got my peak this evening on cd18! Had almost given up testing but knew something was up this morning with ewcm appearing. Dtd and will hope to entice DH again tomorrow!

SarahB88 · 01/01/2025 20:43

@MyGardenDaisies I can see it too!!! How exciting!

Miffy1994 · 01/01/2025 20:44

Updated whilst I was writing! Congrats @MyGardenDaisies!

MyGardenDaisies · 01/01/2025 20:47

@Kinderbueno89 I think 10DPO, but I took this month off OPKs.

My 1st positive with my little one was very similar at also 10 or 11 DPO.

@Lemonolive09 I might order on Amazon!

@Miffy1994 @Marie1990x @CoolSummer89 tentative thank you 🥹

@MyGardenDaisies Congratulations Its a definite lime, no sqinting needed 🙂

MrsH26 · 01/01/2025 21:09

Definitely there @MyGardenDaisies everything crossed for you!
what a lovely start to the new year

YKM2829 · 01/01/2025 21:09

I'd like to join as I'm ttc now as of Xmas eve.
I've got a DD age 6 so it's been a while since ttc and just remember all the anagrams for stuff so just gonna read up and will comment occasionally. 😘

MyGardenDaisies · 01/01/2025 21:13

Haha thank you @ThatSnugSwan ! ☺️

I still feel like until I see it in writing I can’t believe it fully! Ordered digital with weeks indication but it’s coming on Saturday , when I’ll miss my period officially.

If I’m near a Boots or Asda tomorrow, I’ll do it earlier. Got some more non-digital not ultra sensitive ones to wee on tomorrow morning to see if the line gets darker.

I can’t believe cycle 5, after my short LP and not testing, is the time it happened!
And the cliché of “when you relax it will happen” - I have my gynaecologist and SA testing for DH booked in a couple of weeks, and this month cut down all supplements to just Folic Acid, Vit D, and Proceive this cycle.

I see it too, fingers crossed for you but congrats!!

Marie1990x · 01/01/2025 21:17

@MyGardenDaisies i bet it would be a positive on digital tomorrow! I found them sensitive. My cheapie with DD was vvvvf but still got a positive on weeks indicator one 🤞🏻

So so excited for you - there’s definitely a line!

Haha I had a sneaky suspicion it would happen for you this month, not doing OPKs and having your tests lined up must have done the trick 😅 I have everything crossed for you that you get a positive on a digital when you can! X

MyGardenDaisies · 01/01/2025 23:22

@Kateb149 thank you lovely xx

Happy new year everyone! So lovely to see a couple of positives!

4dpo here. We only managed to dtd once in the fertile window due to illness. I think I have in my head this month is out but it's making me feel more relaxed about not waiting to symptom spot. Period due jan 9th (11dpo) . I think unless I have strong symptoms I will try and hold off testing due to last month's vvfl.

Mumzydarling12 · 02/01/2025 07:20

@MyGardenDaisies eeeekkkk how exciting!! I can definitely see that line! What a lovely way to start the new year! Congratulations ☺️❤️.

cycle 8 of TTC here, period due on the 9th Jan, trying will try and hold off any testing and see if AF shows up first, which I am used to now! 🤦‍♀️
Happy new year everyone! Wishing lots of baby dust everyone’s way ☺️xx

FMc208 · 02/01/2025 08:22

Hi all, can I join?

Currently 2dpo TTC #2. This will be our 4th cycle. I try my hardest each month not to test early but by around 8dpo I start getting antsy!

Also going to try my hardest not to symptom spot but again I say that every month!

Lots of luck to you all!

Sunshine924 · 02/01/2025 08:44

@MyGardenDaisies congratulations ❤️ Keeping everything crossed you get your digital positive soon too.

I'm a bit earlier in the Jan cycle than everyone else... And boy is this month dragging!! Back to work today which should (in theory) be a distraction 😂

CoolSummer89 · 02/01/2025 09:01

Morning, 10dpo and BFN. I know it's too early to know for sure but I also just know that it's not happened this month. Disappointed of course because I have felt very relaxed this TWW, so thought my body might have helped me out 😅 but instead I just have a stinking cold, which explains why my heart rate went up earlier in the week.

Have my first fertility investigation next week so at least I am getting close to some answers after 15 (!) cycles trying. I am not going to try next cycle, as we're off to Australia for a wedding at the end of the month and the silver lining of not being pregnant is I can just enjoy myself and not be shattered. At one point I thought we might be bringing a newborn on this trip 🤡
