1DPO 30/08 anyone else similar? Warning: May encourage symptom spotting ;)

[LilMiss_91]

Who wants to join in this craaazy journey with me?
1DPO on my first post MC cycle. O'd on CD 17/18 (I think) instead of my usual CD14/15 but to be honest I'm just glad I've O'd at all!

So come and join and hopefully we can help keep each other sane during the TWW X

I'll join you 👍🏻, I think I'm 2 dpo today, I ovulated on cd12 which is pretty normal for me. Fingers crossed for you xx

 

[pinkpassion]

Hey I'll join!!!! I'm 6 dpo today, will start testing tomorrow. . I have that "I'm sure I'm pregnant " feeling lol so we'll see!!! I always get early bfps between 7-9 dpo!!!! This is my first cycle post mmc and emergency d&c, we weren't supposed to be trying because of my recurrent pregnancy loss (4 losses, 2 mmc at 10 weeks) but dh and I decided to put it all in God's hands.. AND I get the results of part of my testing on Tuesday!!! So hopefully if something is wrong like a blood clotting issue I can get it taken care of soon if I am pregnant this month!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

Hi Mumof5, thankyou, good luck to you too. Do you temp/opk?

Hi Pink! It's so lovely to have a familiar face on the thread so much luck you my lovely. I hope you get bfp this month and fingers crossed the results from the tests come back and you can deal with any problem there may be.

So I'm a little confused... I used CB digi opks (the dual hormone one) and ICs and got a solid smiley on CD16-17 (two different holders) but the ICs never gave me a strong line, the lines from CD13-17 all look veeery similar. And I've just started getting EWCM since yesterday evening and now I'm worried I missed O :/ we last DTD on CD 17 and I'm getting EWCM now on CD19 :/ what's going on?!

 

[pinkpassion]

I'd keep bd'ing!! You just never know, do you temp to confirm O?

 

[pinkpassion]

7dpo today and as promised I've tested

 

[MUMOF5]

Hi lilmiss, yes I opk and temp, my ff link is at bottom of my page 👍🏻, I really dont know what's going on, but if you still have ewcm then I'd still keep at it 😉

Wow 7dpo is early to test, can't see clearly from pics, but any sign of a line pinkpassion?

 

[pinkpassion]

I've been pregnant 5 times and always gotten early bfps 7-10 dpo!!!
I swear I see something BUT I'll test again tomorrow. .. those tests have tricked me before with the indent!!! Only time will tell!!!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

When do you think you will start testing Mum? Or dpes it depend on symptoms for you? I want to try and hold out until I know I will get a definite line because I was still getting a very faint positive from my MMC the day before AF came :/ so if I test early and get a faint positive I won't know if it's left over hcg or new. Hope to wait till about 12/13dpo.

I was going to jump OH today but just been to the loo (tmi coming) and there was a big clump of yellowy ewcm when I wiped so I checked my cp and up round there it's all just creamy cm now.

I want to say I see something Pink but I can't be sure. Good luck for your test tomorrow! X

 

[pinkpassion]

Yeah, I see something too lol.. here's a few better pics I took this morning!!!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

Ooh can't wait to see tomorrows tests!

 

[MUMOF5]

I've stopped testing before early due because the disappointment for me is unbearable, was getting pretty depressed. I would only be tempted to test if my temps stayed up past 12-13dpo, so the day before af. Xx

 

[LilMiss_91]

Oook. So I know A) I said I wanted to wait and B) there are a lot of mixed opinions about using OPKs to detect pregnancy.
BUT I remembered that the cycle I conceived my angel, I used an OPK really early (3dpo) and got a really strong line, much stronger than I'd had when I was meant to O and it did turn out I was pregnant that month. So I thought seeings as I have about 100 IC OPKs I'd use one and see what happened. Mainly because I had some mild cramping and twintching/twinging in my uterus area yesterday and the day before.
And guess what? BAM massive positive on the OPK in about a minute. Took another 2hrs laters and same thing.
And the lack of EWCM during O and then the clump of EWCM yesterday (which has now turned watery/slippery/stretchy)... that's EXACTLY what I wrote in another post on here during that cycle. I'll attach the pics. I don't know what to think. I'm worried that if everything happens the same way it did last time and I am pg this month that it will end the same way

 

[LilMiss_91]

This is the thread from the cycle I conceived my baby angel where I had the exact same happen https://babyandbump.momtastic.com/o...dpo-but-got-really-dark-opk-do-you-think.html

 

[pinkpassion]

Fx'd that's good news lilmiss!!!!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

Can it really mean anything at only 3/4dpo though? It wouldn't have implanted yet so wouldn't be producing any hcg for a test to detect :/

 

[pinkpassion]

I honestly don't know but if it happened last time possibly a good sign!!!! I'm also worried about things going the same way again!!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

I really admire your strength Pink, there was a time not long ago that the thought of being pregnant again filled me with complete dread and that was only after the 1 loss. Maybe we'll both have a lucky cycle this time and both get beautiful rainbows this time around.

 

[pinkpassion]

Thanks lilmiss... sometimes it's hard to imagine getting to be pregnant again!!! I envy my friends who have no worries and are blissfully ignorant. ... I truly hope this is our cycle!!!

 

[LilMiss_91]

I know right, I've had to unfollow a friend on Facebook recently. She's quite far along and right around when I lost my bubba she started all this pregnancy related complaining, moaning about everything and saying she was ready to not be pg anymore. And I obviously wasn't pg anymore and not a bit by choice :/ so I obviously took that much more personally than maybe I would have done before. I know pg is hard, my first wasn't easy, but it is such a blessing and I would rather have a truckload of symptoms and a healthy baby than the weeks of no symptoms I had with my angel. Rant over

So I took 4 OPKs yesterday, SMU, noon, 4.30pm and around 8pm. All reeeally dark. Taken 2 more today and every so slightly lighter but I have been drinking loads this morning. 1st pic is SMU around 9.30am and 2nd is about 1pm
