Hi! I'm 9dpo... not sure when I'm going to test though. I've been burned too many times with POAS and starting af the same day. Trying my best to hold out!

I only have a internet cheapie so I know it won't show anything until I'm due on which is Friday/Saturday but I can't help myself so will test on Wednesday Grin

Best of luck to everyone! I was a bit nauseous yesterday but I think that was down to a dodgy takeaway the night before 😂 and sore boobs since yesterday but that's pretty standard for me before af so think I'm out anyway.

I'm having all of the symptoms: cramps, sore boobs, dry mouth, upset tummy. I feel very pregnant but...I know these symptoms could easily be nothing. My last pregnancy ended in a Missed Miscarriage last month so very scared to test.

Hello! AF due today and I tested on an internet cheapie this morning and BFN not even a tiny squinter

Hoping I’m not out still as it was fmu and was quite a diluted sample but I bet AF appear later :(

If you use a first response on the day your period is due does it have to be fmu?

@catconfusion sorry to hear about your mmc I had one the first time round. I’ve been pregnant twice but neither time was successful so I’m really hoping it’s third time lucky! Fingers crossed for you too

@Catconfusion sorry to hear about your mmc, I've had a previous miscarriage. Heartbreaking.
Let's hope this is a lucky month for all!

I’m testing this week too ladies - best of luck to all!

Already 1 BFN this morn at 9DPO, so trying to hold out til Friday now - AF due thurs.

@MotherOfShihTzus

Yep I'm temping. Here's my chart so far. Not a fan of that little dip this morning but I'm still 5 days away from AF so I think it's just a blip. I temped at a slightly different time today. How's yours looking?

MrsRLM

how do I share a pic?! Sorry I’m quite new here!

I’ve had a 2 day dip although I temped twice yesterday due to having a lie in! The first was low-ish - which is what I’ve used, but the second was waaay high. I’m due AF around thurs so - similar to you! - I’m hoping the dip isn’t ominous!

I uploaded that on my phone, just under the message box there is a little paperclip symbol. If you click that you can select a pic to upload x

Actually - it's saying new users cannot post images; WTF?!

I'm 8dpo today. Temp took a dip this morning but it's still pretty high. Having some weird symptoms that i'm trying not to read too much into. I've had the weirdest most surreal dreams for the past 3 days. I also keep getting up multiple times during the night to go to the toilet. i'm super irritable, light headed and I have the sort of acne I haven't seen since I was a teenager! huge angry lumps all over my forehead :( I don't normally have period symptoms until the day it arrives so hoping these are all good signs. AF not due until the weekend.

@MotherOfShihTzus Hello, I don't think new users can post photos for around 24 hours. Hope this helps.

I've never done my temps, not sure how to follow it to be honest.
My symptoms are just a few light cramps in the pelvic area but I'm not thinking much of it although every time it happens I'm thinking ooo could this be implantation cramps Grin

Arh @Aberforthsgoat I'm so sorry for you losses. Yes really devastating. Sometimes it takes a bit longer to get a bfp even on a normal test. I hope your period holds off and you get a better result in a couple of days. X

I'm sorry for your loss @AnxietyForever. I hope we get our bfp this time around! X

@AnxietyForever thank you for the heads up! I only joined today after lurking for a while.

Best of luck with your symptoms - sounds promising!

I’m only 8dpo and it is an eBay cheapie but could it be?
I turned 40 last month and decided to go for it, can it possibly have happened so quick or am I kidding myself?!

I can see something too but the test line does look far away from the control line! You need a frer ASAP!

I can see it without shining a light but it won’t photograph?!
It’s been a while since I took a test so no idea if it’s the right place but I think so.

So sorry to hear of the miscarriages Sad I can't even begin to imagine how it must feel.

Everyone's symptoms sound promising though! I've talked myself into being hopeful and then being pessimistic a million times today. I've eaten loads today and now feel sick which is confusing matters!
