first cycle actively trying (June 2015)

[gina236]

I usually start with IC at 10dpo just to satisfy my need to POAS. Lol. I might end up doing a opk this week too just to make sure i see 2 lines lol.

 

[Velathria]

Hahaha might do that xD lol I read that someone cut the bottom of a bottle of and used that. Ofc after cleaning it. I might try that xD I really wanna test with morning pee tomorrow.

 

[gina236]

You could always try to use it midstream too. I did that with some of my opks because I didn't have a cup to use at work.

 

[Velathria]

Yeah I could try that

 

[gina236]

Having crazy heartburn today. Haven't had heart burn in months! And I ate left overs from Friday for lunch and had no issues Friday so I don't think it's what I ate. Hoping it's a good sign but hoping it's not a sign of things to come for the next few months lol.

 

[Velathria]

Could be. I had horrible heartburn all through the pregnancy... it was the worst... everyone always joked around that he will have alot of hair... apparently it's an old wives tale that it means the children are hairy xD

 

[gina236]

I have heard that too. But have heard plenty of women prove it wrong lol.

 

[Velathria]

My son had a normal set of hair... nothing out of the ordinary.

Btw had heartburn today too.. weird xD

Here's a better picture.

I'm bleeding now though. Light but I'm wearing a pad. So now I'm freaking out x

 

[sophiedaphne]

Hello friends!
I took a pregnancy test yesterday. Yes, way too early, I know I've also started to take prenatals, just in case.

Anyway, TMI again, but I guess my period isn't due until around the 15-17. My boobs are SO sore, lmao. Is this a thing? I don't even know anymore.

 

[gina236]

Lawes I can definitely see that line. Hope it gets darker.

Sophie it's so hard not to test early. It's definitely good to be on prenatals already. One thing I read said take them a year before you start trying. I don't think i would ever be able to plan that far ahead lol. Sore boobs are definitely a sign but also a sign of AF. So many symptoms overlap so it's hard to truly symptom spot in the TWW.

 

[FertileFlower]

Lawes, definitely see a line there! FC for you!!

Velathria, I thought I had implantation bleeding last month at 6dpo. Never have had spotting like that before. But alas, no bump to show for it though. Last month was really odd overall though. Ovulated on cd7 (mega early) and even had a small ovulation bleed.

Gina & Velathria, best wishes and bunches of baby dust! Looking forward to reading about your BFP's!

Magicalmom, hope you are doing good.

AFM, I was pretty sure I was pregnant until two days ago, when I knew something was not right. I got massive pains for a day but no bleeding. I didn't need the bleeding to know that I was out though as my hormones crashed abruptly too. I think I had a CP because next day the bleeding was in full force and a lot heavier and with more dark clumps than usual. It was pretty brutal and emotionally I was a total mess. I cried so much I even made DH cry. Which ended up being quite sweet actually. Brought us closer. New month now! If it was a chemical (all signs and the positive hpt's points to it) then that is the furthers we've come so far! So maybe my body is gearing up and this month will be it!

 

[gina236]

That does sound like a chemical fertile. I'm so sorry some do say after a loss you are more fertile so maybe next month will be it! FX for you.

Lawes I can definitely see that line. Hope it gets darker.

A year?! Wow, I never would have known. Oh well, guess it is good I started taking them. It's like having candy in the morning! Haha.

 

[Velathria]

Wow I missed alot while I was sleeping. XD awww fertileflower im sorry that happened. ... I really hope this month is it then.

Lawes I see a line too.. try some more tests I'd be testing like crazy lol so backpain isn't as bad anymore... it's still there but now I'm starting to have slight cramps like AF is on its way....

I hope not...

I didn't test today gina... had to pee in the middle of the night and then again this morning and it was so bad. I couldn't hold it through opening the pack and finding out how to use it xD

I'll test tomorrow then.... hoping it's positive...

Gina how you doing today?

Sophie I hope you still get that bfp... sore boobs can be a symptom for pregnancy but also a pre-AF symptom. Your cycle and everything could still be adjusting. I'd say don't get too hung up about sore boobs.

 

[gina236]

Can't wait for you to test! I took an IC last night knowing nothing would show but I have so many of them I just had to try haha. If you don't normally get up in the middle of the night to pee that could be a good thing. Increased urination is an early pregnancy symptom! only 4 more days until the true testing!!

 

[Velathria]

i feel like i'm out though... like its this feeling i just have.

What did your test say?

I keep having pain like the is literally about to knock down the door and arrive

I will try to test tomorrow though. Yeah i usually only have to pee in the morning.. and sometimes not even then.

Just found a euro store that sells pregnancy tests for 1,50! yay!! ready to test next month with those bad boys XD i can test like crazy then

How you feeling today? Still cramps ?

 

[gina236]

Cramps are on and off. Not bad though. The test was stark white. I was hoping to see something because I seemed to be feeling more symptoms and thinking it was hormones from implantation. Had some more spotting like cm today. Tmi but my underwear had a brown tinged spot that I couldn't tell if it was a stain from AF one month or if it was from now but checked my CM and it's definitely brown tinged again. I'm 9 dpo today so it's possible that today it's implant spotting but I think I had that last month too and it was nothing so who knows. I still definitely feel pregnant. Really hoping it sticks! Still holding out hope for you too. You've had great symptoms so far.

 

[Velathria]

well maybe the last time was still from ovulation or sex.. and this time it is IB

I hope its not a sign that AF is coming early. Got my fingers crossed for you..

Well 9dpo is still early so testing BFP would be very rare.. I think like only around 30% chance to get a BFP.

Thats why i am trying to wait.. even though i really want to test.

 

[gina236]

FF said 17% will get a bfp at 9 dpo. I wasn't really expecting anything. Especially because it was an ic that I believe is 25 miu which means no chance haha. But couldn't help myself. Hopefully now I will be able to wait until Saturday after getting it out of my system. I doubt it is af coming early. She isn't due until next Monday so that would be super early! I checked back and I had the same brown ting at CD 22 last month. I'm CD 23 so it must just be something my body produces at this point. No idea what it could be.
