July 2021

[Lollipop87]

Hi everyone!

There doesn’t seem to be a thread yet for July 2021, probably because most of you haven’t got your BFP yet! I got mine yesterday at 9DPO which was super early but had a pretty clear line on a FRER with afternoon urine, so confirmed with a digital. My due date is 4th July 2021 and I can’t wait for more of you to join me!! Feeling excited but a bit overwhelmed / not everything has sunk in yet. Also it’s still super early so I’m crossing my fingers (and legs!) that this little one sticks. It’s my first baby so I have no experience of any of this!

Hopefully see more of you in the next few days!!

Xx

@Nam095 no I am completely the same!!
I can't stop worrying about it.
Although it was quite funny - I was just telling my OH about my worries this morning, and then a massive wave of nausea came over me - which reassured me 🤣🤣
I never thought I'd be happy to feel nauseous

@Wishiknewtheanswer congrats and crossing my fingers for you! @ambs1994 sorry about your BFN, how long have you been TTC?

@Nam095 I know exactly what you mean, my tummy feels less weird this morning so I’m like is it still there?? @purplepoppet92 I’m also praying for some nausea to reassure me, it is so weird wanting to feel sick isn’t it 😂

Hi, hope you don’t mind me joining this thread! Cycle 5 TTC 😊
I’m currently 11dpo and have this (see pic) Can I class this as BFP?
Top test was last night at 7pm, bottom is FMU this morning! I’ve seen a lot of reviews on clear blue so I don’t want to get my hopes up especially because it’s very early but I’ve never gotten a line on these tests before. Any thoughts welcome x

@elb1212 congratulations! I would say that’s defo a positive, a line is a line! You could always pop out and get a clear blue digital to confirm it, I used one in the afternoon and got a positive after having a line on a FRER. I don’t think I’d have believed mine if I hadn’t seen it literally spelled out in letters 😂

Hi everyone,

Congratulations July gang!!

Tested yesterday and it's a positive, my first baby

@elb1212 @Baconbuttie88 congrats ladies 🥰

@Lollipop87 we're not trying but not preventing either so not exactly ttc

@baconbutties congrats!!
Whats your EDD?

I seem to be the earliest so far - calculated as 2nd July xx

@purplepoppet92 thank you and a huge congrats to you too! estimated date 6th July so we are super close!!!!

Can I join, im super paranoid about jinxing it but I've just had my big fat positive im only 9dpo so fingers crossed its a sticky bean x

Congrats @Baconbuttie88 and @robodo!! My EDD is 4th July. Robodo I got my BFP at 9DPO on Tuesday and was surprised to get one so early but wasn’t that surprised it was positive because I’d had a few symptoms. Then this morning I woke up and my tummy felt more normal so I started panicking that I’d imagined it! Had one more test left so took it and thankfully the line was even darker so my HCG levels must be doubling as expected. Gosh it’s an emotional rollercoaster these early days of pregnancy isn’t it!! 😂

@Lollipop87 I have 3 more tests so will test each morning now to make sure its progressing until I miss period, I just get super paranoid of a chemical as we want this so badly x

@robodo congrats ☺️ I know exactly how you feel, I’m 13dpo today and also got BFP at 9dpo, AF due tomorrow and I’m so nervous of having a chemical. I’ve been doing tests every other day and the line seems to be progressing so I’m hoping everything continues to run smoothly 😬

@Lollipop87 I took you advice! I didn’t think it would show at all. Still not sure I quite believe it 😂

Congratulations lovely ladies 💞 wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months! Baby dust to all those trying ✨🤞🏽 I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous/scared/anxious/feeling every emotion ever!

@robodo Yeah I’m doing every 2 days as those tests are expensive but my period was due either today or tomorrow! I think I’ll relax more gone 5 weeks.

I have felt a few pains on one side so started googling ectopic pregnancies too. I am too much of a worrier! 🙈 What’s everyone doing this weekend?

In my last pregnancy I took so many tests, I’ve only took 3 this time. 🤣

We’ve been to the farm and pumpkin picking albeit it pissed it down the whole day but it didn’t matter cause my DD had a fab time dressed as a skeleton 💓

How about you? @stellarfox

Xx

@robodo that sounds like a good plan, I have no more left so think I’m going to try and not worry (yeah right 😂) Only 1 more week until 5 weeks and I think I’ll start to relax more then like @stellarfox says!

@Nam095 the test I took this morning looks the same as your bottom one, nice and dark, so hopefully that’s a good sign for both of us, fingers crossed! 😊 We’re exactly the same DPO,

@elb1212 OMG congrats!! So happy for you! It is a whirlwind of emotions isn’t it! Have you worked out your estimated due date?

@stickytoffeepud1991 that sounds like a lovely day! We’ve come to visit my in-laws as they’re going into tier 3 so not sure when we’ll next see them, decided to tell them we’re expecting (with the caveat it’s super early) but we really wanted to tell them in person and it actually feels really lovely to talk to them about it along with our hopes and fears. Hope you’re all having lovely weekends 😊

Congratulations everyone! I just got my BFP today, first pregnancy!

I am equal parts excited and terrified. DH and I have just been discussing how we’re going to change the office into a nursery.

Ahhhh!!

Congrats @PardonMyFrancais!! It’s an interesting mix of emotions isn’t it, all the best to you 💕

@Lollipop87my EDD is 4th July as well!

@stickytoffeepud1991 Pumpkin picking is so much fun! We really enjoyed it! Sounds like a lovely weekend. We went to a little city farm yesterday with my sister and today we going to some kind of family adventure park. Not sure what is there but assuming animals and other fun things!

@Lollipop87 Hope the in laws are excited! Has anyone else told anyone? I’ve told 3 people, my sister, another friend I saw in person and a friend of mine from nct who has just found out she’s pregnant too! First time we didn’t tell anyone until after the scan. I’m only really telling people this time that I’d be comfortable telling them if things go wrong.

Also this looks like ok progression doesn’t it? They are all two days apart 🤞 Not sure my 14 dpo is as dark as your 13 dpo @Nam095 but quite similar!

Congratulations @PardonMyFrancais!

Morning everyone! Hope those of you with little ones weren’t woken up too early with the clocks going back!

@PardonMyFrancais yay, due date buddies! 😊

@stellarfox my MIL’s reaction was the best, she cried and was so excited but then kept being like “of course we know it’s really early” so then she’d calm down but 2 mins later she’d go “oh I’m just so excited I can’t stop smiling” 😂 It was really lovely. We’re going to tell my family (my mum and sister and her husband and our niece, who won’t understand because she’s 16 months but she can say “baby” 🥰) in 2 weeks on bonfire weekend as we’re going round to my mum’s for dinner and sparklers. They would know something’s up if I turned down mulled cider so we’re going to tell them at the start of the evening 😊

I’m really excited, they’ll be over the moon as I always said I wanted to start trying straight after we got married which was a year ago but DH wasn’t ready and then due to Covid we waited a bit longer but decided to start trying when we went away for our anniversary, and that’s when we were lucky enough to fall. I always wanted a honeymoon baby so it’s lovely to have an anniversary baby 😊

p.s. @stellarfox yep that progression looks good! 😊

Can I join? Got my BFP on Friday and took another today still very positive! NHS edd is 7th July.
I am terrified! We were trying but it's our first baby and we did not expect it to happen so quickly!
