@fullofhope2024 I just keep googling to decide what the earliest day I can test is 😂 it's not healthy!

How are you?

Enjoying playing with LO in the sun though, picking up a ball pit and a gazebo today so we can really enjoy the garden!

Welshy2024 · 21/06/2024 13:33

Beautiful weather today isn't it. I have been out all morning to the park with my LO. He's napping now, he's shattered.

I have a feeling I'm out this month so not going to bother testing. (and waste them) I think I'm going to work on my mindset going forward and let nature takes its course in this TTC journey.

How r u feeling? Have u had any symptoms?

Me! Tested today at 8DPO and was a big fat negative ☹️ I’ll test again Monday but not overly hopeful 🤞🤞🤞

Lidlisthebusiness · 21/06/2024 17:38

@fullofhope2024 I'm still processing the positives I've had. I had a loss 2 years ago, and am trying not to get too attached too soon. With my age and diabetes against me, I'm a bit anxious, especially with finding out so early.

Still, that hasn't stopped me browsing maternity clothes, baby bags and looking at name 🫣

km9371 · 21/06/2024 17:48

@Welshy2024 that sounds lovely! We done the same and then I've spent the afternoon sorting out the clean washing mountains that I never put away - the fun 😂 I like that approach and think it'll be how I manage things moving forward, it's nice to take the pressure off. No symptoms here really!

@Quaver9 it's so hard isn't it I often want to rest early but I know it can take longer to show a positive. Fingers crossed for you for Monday!!

@Lidlisthebusiness I hope you have a lovely and healthy pregnancy 💚 i imagine it is hard the anxiety for me didn't go away until the baby was put on my chest last time. It's so exciting getting everything ready for baby!

Welshy2024 · 21/06/2024 20:51

@Quaver9 fingers crossed for you!

So confused - 5dpo and I've suddenly got ewcm- have I got this cycle all wrong 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

fullofhope2024 · 22/06/2024 08:06

@Lidlisthebusiness Im wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy ❤️

fullofhope2024 · 22/06/2024 08:09

@km9371 hoping the ewcm is a change in hormones and a good thing?
I’m 5 dpo today and not really having many symptoms. Bit tired and constipated but I’m guessing that’s progesterone related. Trying to keep busy and positive for the next week.
I have used my supplies of tests last month and not bought any more so it takes away the opportunity to test early which I’ve done the last few months, trying to wait until closer to at due

fullofhope2024 · 22/06/2024 08:11

@Quaver9 i think I’ve watched every 2ww video on YouTube and every thread online. 8dpo is very early and implantation may only just be beginning so don’t lose hope!
I’ve everything crossed for you hun

Quaver9 · 22/06/2024 09:07

IBS this morning and felt a tiny bit crampy. Convincing myself it’s because I had diary last night which always kicks it off abit!

But noticed pink tinged discharge so just to check I wasn’t seeing things I used a tampon and definitely not colourless.

2 losses in last 12 months so hoping this is third time lucky,

Other possibility is that my cycles are still up the wall from my last MC and I’m just about to come on 5/6 days early!

Not testing today as got a negative yesterday so giving it a little longer.

@Welshy2024 @fullofhope2024 thank you both xx

Lidlisthebusiness · 22/06/2024 12:15

@Quaver9 I took my first test on the 14th after I saw a pink tinge when wiping. It was negative, but took another on the 19th and that was positive. I'm not due on until tomorrow, so did take them very early.
Everything crossed for you!

Thanks for the good wishes ladies. I have a scan on the 2nd July when I should be 7+1, so I'm hoping all will be well.

fullofhope2024 · 25/06/2024 07:31

Morning everyone, hope you are all ok.
8 dpo today, not a symptom to report so not feeling too good about this month but we shall see.

Welshy2024 · 25/06/2024 07:45

Hay! Sucks to hear this @fullofhope2024 ! Same for me this month. DPo 14 today and expecting AF any moment now. They say no symptoms is good don't they, but I think I would just know if I was. Do u think the same?.

OP posts:
Quaver9 · 25/06/2024 07:57

12 DPO for me, negative test on Sunday and no sore boobs etc so just waiting for P on Thursday 😭 x

fullofhope2024 · 25/06/2024 08:31

@Welshy2024 Sorry you feel the same. I just remember six years ago feeling extra hormonal in the 2ww but can’t remember specific symptoms. I just felt pregnant. This month not so much.
I’ll see how the next week goes then maybe try to relax over summer and see GP in sept if no luck.

km9371 · 25/06/2024 08:36

Morning! I caved and tested today, negative. Not my month 💔

fullofhope2024 · 25/06/2024 10:22

@km9371 sorry hun, how many dpo are you today? Sending big hugs ❤️

km9371 · 25/06/2024 11:48

@fullofhope2024 💚

9 or 10 dpo, maybe it's just too early but if I tell myself that I'll be testing twice a day until AF appears 🤦🏼‍♀️

fullofhope2024 · 25/06/2024 12:36

@km9371 you never know, I’ve seen people get bfp way later.
mum not buying tests if I can unless af is late. If I have them in the house I can’t help myself.

Welshy2024 · 25/06/2024 19:20

@km9371 that's still early. There's still time. Fingers crossed for you!
@fullofhope2024 really hoping good news for you!
I'm still waiting for AF but convinced I'm out this month, even been shopping for more lady things. Do you all use CB ovulation tests?

OP posts:
fullofhope2024 · 25/06/2024 19:41

@Welshy2024 I use the digital clear blue. They are so easy to read etc but they are so expensive! And as I’m over 35 I use proceive max which is also expensive.
I’ve been doing both 5 months now. Using pre seed also when I feel CM isn’t great.
not sure what else to try, willing to take any advice from you girls.
I could lose a few pounds but hard to get motivated

Quaver9 · 25/06/2024 19:58

Please all read - ‘it starts with the egg’ for advice on diet, supplements, eliminating toxins etc! I wish I’d read it after my first
loss! All about improving egg and sperm quality to give best chance for successful pregnancy. If anyone wants to inbox me their number I’ll send you a copy of the book on WhatsApp.

I can recommend upping your vit d, vit c, b12 and adding Co-Q10 beyond your usual prenantal amount.

i use the Premom app and the following tests - which you can upload and it helps work out your positive/peak ovulation window.

Welshy2024 · 25/06/2024 20:29

@fullofhope2024 I have been using clear blue too. And don't ever notice much EWCM so debating on getting pre seed. Do you think it helps? Any of you heard of the fertility cup? I did try it this month but don't think I will nxt month.
I would love to read that book. I will have a look online for it. Thank you! Where did u get it from?

Lidlisthebusiness · 25/06/2024 22:34

Do any of you use an app to monitor things? I used Ovia with my last baby, and it was a great tool. I fell pregnant the first or second month by logging everything. I think they only do a pregnancy app now, but if you can find something similar, it might be helpful.
