I always admire people who can tell their husband in a cute way. I’d love to do that but I seem to always tell him before the test is dry . So interested to see what you do. I might try and keep it a secret and do something fun next time.

Well last time couldn’t be a surprise because it was IVF and this time might be the one time ever that we manage to conceive unassisted so want to make it a little bit special but it’s hard because I can’t think of a single way to do it haha.

So top is yesterday’s and bottom today’s. Looks nice although it’s different brands. According to when we ddt im going to say I’m 13dpo

Wow so many bfps already congrats to you all.

Sorry to the ladies who had a loss.

Afm- I'm in my tww. Don't have much hope for this cycle.

Ladies waiting to test good luck!

@elencor I never announced in a cute way to DH always just told him immediately, but we did tell the grandparents in a cute way with baby 1 (who made them grandparents)- we gave my dad and DH’a dad a bottle of “Old Grand dad” whiskey and had them open it at the same time and watched while they figured it out. Wish we’d filmed it, I’ll always remember that moment.

@HalfricanMa wow I love these stories, I am praying for baby 3

@3boys ugh ugh ugh it’s the WORST, I am so so sorry. My lines are taking forever to go away completely but last night was almost negative so hopefully today will be total bfn. May wait to test until tomorrow though. I’m also still bleeding bright red, so ready to be done with this.

 

[MrsKatie]

Wow @elencor gorgeous progression!

@NightFlower sending prayers

 

[HalfricanMa]

@MrsKatie sorry you’re going through this also. To clarify, i liked your post because you’ve prayed for baby 3. I really believe we have at least one more person to join our family.

Yep it really sucks. I bought a load of vitamins etc today and will use opks this month which I haven’t used in years. I turned 40 at the end of September so feel like I’ll need all the help I can get

 

[MrsKatie]

Omg @3boys i spent SO much $$$ on vitamins opks etc yesterday too! I am 42.5 so I GET IT

Well hopefully we’ll both get our sticky bfps this month.

Were we in the May 2023 group together?

 

[MrsKatie]

@3boys yes! My youngest was born 5/8/23

 

[MrsKatie]

Also @3boys I’m so sorry you’re also going through this, it’s so painful. I’m struggling with a lot of anger and extreme fatigue.

I did a digital so I feel officially pregnant
I finally told my husband. I just told him I had a present for him and handed him the test, he was confused and thought it was an ovulation test but when he finally believed me he was so happy

I know it’s rough but hopefully this will be our month. What vitamins are you trying this month?

I hope so… is it bad im hoping for a 2-3 but i reckon il just be 1-2. Trouble we have is i am somewhere between 4-6wks pregnant. Im positive i ovulated late this cycle.

I think you will get a 2-3 but try to remember they are just an estimate. If your urine is dilluted it will affect the result. In previous pregnancies I have had them go from 3+ back down to 2-3, everything online said I was probably having a mc. I didn’t and went on to have a healthy pregnancy.
