Got my BFP this evening at 14dpo. I was due my period today but it didn’t arrive so I ran to the pharmacy. I was shaking like a leaf doing the test. I genuinely felt like my period was coming all week but I guess it was just cramping! So nervous but so excited for this next chapter. Sending everyone love & baby dust
could it possibly be implantation bleeding?Apologies in advance if this is tmi or a really daft question, I'm currently in the middle of the waiting window between my fertile days and my period being due, and today I've been needing to wee constantly, there's no burning and it's not tiny amounts, but the last couple times there has been pinkish colour after I've wiped. Can this be an early sign of pregnancy or have I just got myself a lovely old UTI or the likes?!

. It didn’t feel like cystitis at first so I went for about 4 days until it really did feel like cystitis and there was a reasonable amount of blood, then I got antibiotics. It’s not something that’s ever happened to me before as a probably result of having a decent amount of sex, but I’ve had a year where my body has done everything it possibly can to rebel against me so I’m not really that surprised!I ended up with a UTI in my last waiting window, I think Mr DragName and I had too much sex

Hello all!I hope you don’t mind me joining, I’m having my copper coil removed on Thursday to start TTC. I’m very new to it all, don’t quite know where to start but I’m hugely aware it often doesn’t come to people as easily as some would believe. Sending positive baby energy and hugs to you all x
hopefully it’s something else happening to you! I was going to say it can’t hurt to drink lots of water to flush anything out but I know the trauma of doing that and then needing to pee even more!Oh jeez, I'm on holiday until Friday morning so I really hope I don't end up needing antibiotics
This is absolutely how I started out when my Mirena was removed in May and absolutely how I am now. My LH seems to be getting lower (but has never been anything but low) as I head towards my supposed ovulation date. I think I’m going to get the Hertility test done just to see what insights it can give me.
This is the approach we’re going to take too, trying not to put too much stress on it but think I will likely be obsessively checking my LH levels too
has your cycle retuned (at least somewhat) to normal now after having your mirena removed? XIt’s reassuring to read the messages and know others are in the same boat.

Mine was removed in May and I had my first period in mid July. I had 2 Mirena coils back to back over 13 years (yeah, one of them was in way too long, whoops) and after the initial insertion of the first one settled down, had nothing except the odd bit of spotting over those years. I’ve been a 35/36 day cycle since but it’s obviously still quite early days!This is the approach we’re going to take too, trying not to put too much stress on it but think I will likely be obsessively checking my LH levels too
I quite like the Flowette period pants. I bought a selection of their different types along with a cup as I was a Mooncup user before the mirena - the ‘maxi’ pants for night time do feel a bit like you’re wearing a nappy, but the others I really like.
Like very light period cramps so it’s hard to differentiate
Honestly, thank you so much. I catastrophise so quickly but my tests look a lot like the ‘low’ ones. I probably should have started my testing a lot earlier than I did as well, I might have missed the peak! Thanks again.
Mine go from barely there to a strong line in hours. I always ovulate later than the predictions too. Just keep testing and you’ll start to see what’s normal for you. I don’t think there’s any ‘normal’ that applies across the board in this whole process so it’s very much a case of trial and error until patterns emerge. 18 months in and I’m still learning new things about my cycles.
They can be like your regular period cramps, and it's a definite 'huh?' moment when you go to the bathroom and realise you've not started.
