Cd33, 13dpo and still a bloody bfn on a frer too! Think I have to assume that this random bleeding is the witch messing about. Hmm

RetroHippy · 02/02/2014 08:30

Guys, just wanted to tell DH first. Wonderful thing about CM digi (opted for that over the basic stick to avoid the am I am I not question!!)) is that it comes back with the blatant pregnant / not pregnant sign.

Mine fortunately says 1-2 pregnant!! Yay!

zermat, First ResponseEarly Response I think

Pricey preg tests to be saved until you're pretty certain it's a bfp!

RetroHippy · 02/02/2014 08:22

Nothing on the IC this morning, but last nights was sooo faint it might not show till it's dried out completely. God, I'm shaking! I've daydreamed about this for so long it's like there's no way it can possibly be real.

Fx for you MrsF!

Zermatt · 02/02/2014 08:21

Psst what does frer mean?

All the very best Mrs F, that sounds extra promising and hope you get your BFP today or tomorrow x

Hi zermatt, it's hard to know as was on the pill for 11 yrs. I remember my cycle being quite regular - I never had any ridiculous 33+ days before the age of 16. Came off in Nov and think I had a 28/29 day cycle then last month was 28/29 days so if the last 2 cycles are anything to go by, then I am regular.

So am now at 31 days...

I have 4 hpts in the house. 2 basic ones but you would need to piac or 2 clearblue digi. Feeling a bit sick as I know I should do it!!!

Good luck Retro! X

And I know you're not supposed to use a test after 10 minutes, but I've done enough of these things that I know it's not an evap line...

Should I splash out on a FRER when the shops open? Are they as sensitive as the ics?

RetroHippy · 02/02/2014 08:03

Ladies. I'm sat here with last nights pee stick. I think it has the faintest line ever! So I'm waiting for this morning's test with fmu hoping it's not just dodgy morning eyes...

I don't think it'll even show on a photo so I can't get your opinion!

Zermatt · 02/02/2014 08:02

How regular is your cycle usually MrsF? I can understand why you don't want to test yet and burst your bubble if it's negative, but it does Lund very promising, maybe test tomorrow if AF doesn't arrive today, fingers crossed for you :)

I just feel that AF is far less disappointing than a BFN. Did a test on Tues and BFN and convinced myself that I'd had another unlucky month, so now don't want to get too excited again. Mentioned to DH that I was late and he suggested I should wait til at least a week (though arguably what do men know!). Consequently laying in bed needing a wee!

Morning allGrin

Wow it looks like there's quite a few of us in the 2ww!!! I'm only on 6 dpo.....good luck to those of you poas soonGrin

Zermatt · 02/02/2014 02:28

Good luck to all those poas today :) x

RetroHippy · 02/02/2014 00:09

Pebble I've just done dry Jan too! Was looking forward to a glass of vino but ended up going out. Volunteered to drive so ended up having half a lager. . I'd better be pg to make it worthwhile!

Anyone know if ovulating early results in a short cycle? Noticing lots of the 11/12 dpo crew are on CD 30ish. I got a positive OPK on CD 12, so still only on day 25.

Hearing the stuff about the ics make me want to crack out my spare Tesco test. No idea how sensitive they are though, so may save it for Tuesday. Thinking about it, my SIL said she didn't get a bfp with the ics for ages... Totally worth the £3 to give me something to do for the last week though Grin

Gingerbreadlady1 · 01/02/2014 23:45

Go for it mrsF, let us know how it goes, good luck!

pebble82 · 01/02/2014 23:40

MrsF I've been reading loads of stories online (stupid I know) and it can depend on the person. I reckon you're in with a good chance. Get a decent test and go for it. We'll be here for some virtual hand holding. X

pebble82 · 01/02/2014 23:37

Was on microgynon for 9.5 years then cerazette for 3 months.

It's so long ago I can't remember what my normal periods were like before the pill. I think they were quite long but never tracked them. Who knew that ttc could be difficult? We were always told over and over how f*ing easy it was to fall pregnant. I even bought the morning after pill for £20 once, feel pretty stupid now. Those pharmacies must be laughing all the way to the bank!

I should really hold out until Tues/wed as that's when I think AF is due.
