Thought I'd start a November thread for those of us left over from the October thread. (I hope this is ok and I'm not bypassing some sort of forum etiquette).

Here are my stats:

It's up to you, tell your mum or wait and tell hubby. I don't think I could contain my excitement to wait for hubby! Smile you just need to ring. Your doctor and register with your midwife and she will explain everything from then on. Congratulations! Thanks

redstrawberries101 · 08/11/2015 14:43

What now? This is the first time I have been expecting. I desperately want to tell my mum but feel I should tell hubby first. Want to tell her because I've just found out and she is beside me.

AddictedtoGreys · 08/11/2015 14:22

redstrawberries101 · 08/11/2015 14:21

If it's due tomorrow and you can test 4 days early yes test Smile

And my app says ovulation was 3 days ago? Which is cd 11 if counting from first day of your period. But other sites say ovulation is at different times Confused what does everyone here think? What day of cycle would be ovulation? X

redstrawberries101 · 08/11/2015 14:04

Thanks for your support girls, not shared any of this with anyone in real life and I feel like I'm going nuts! This was our first month without contraception and when I checked the dates I thought we had just missed fertile window. The local boots is closed and Asda didn't stock much variety, I've just been to tesco and they didn't have FRER but had clear blue which can be used 4 days early apparently. So AF should have been due tomorrow. Should I just go ahead and test? I've obviously had the first wee today but don't think I'll manage waiting till tomorrow morning! I'm just off to my mums so will have to be sneaky if I test there. Don't really want to waste £9 if I'm not going to get a positive!

Shemozzle · 08/11/2015 13:51

Addictedtogreys, I'm not sure I've ovulated yet either, I had implant period and then withdrawal bleed and I counted that as a period when I know you shouldn't. According to an app I'm using I did have ovulation signs at the right time though and we DTD at the right time so fingers crossed in still in with a chance. I'm counting the only 2 days we DTD (OH was away half the month) as OV date, when it's not official.

Melvi, sorry I didn't see your last post before I congratulated. Fingers crossed Rs implantation cramps not AF.

Shemozzle · 08/11/2015 13:47

Congrats to Lucia!

Melvali, that's a BFP! 25miu is the least sensitive. Definitely pick up a FRER I'd say, just to give you the reassurance. Congrats!

Congrats Wanting! My dd2 is just over 2 and only just sleeping through. I waited until she was before trying Grin

Loving all these BFP's. Anyone else 6 or 7 DPO?

wantingno2 · 08/11/2015 13:41

pregnancy symptoms are exactly like af symptoms so there is a good chance u are pregnant just make sure you use ur first wee of the day x

redstrawberries101 · 08/11/2015 13:30

I just read your posts and was thinking I'm defo going to test with a FRER today but I've just started experiencing some cramps , exactly how I get them with AF so now I'm feeling scared:( don't want to test and be heart broken. Wanting and mimi, have you got AF symptoms? I'm beginning to think I was seeing things this morning and the light caught the photo and make it look like there was a line Sad

AddictedtoGreys · 08/11/2015 13:16

So nice seeing all these BFP's! Hopefully I will get one but only my first month after stopping the pill so don't even know if I have started ovulating again yet Confused

wantingno2 · 08/11/2015 13:00

My son will be just over 2 and a half when new baby arrives. I'm dreading the sleepless nights to haha xx

Loki17 · 08/11/2015 12:26

My dd will be almost 5 so I'm not expecting it to be too much harder. DD is so easy as it is. The thought of sleepless nights is scary though!

Thank you my af was due on Tuesday so I'm 12dpo I used a frer and superdrug test got one of each left over so will test again tomorrow because I'm crazy and want to see it get darker I feel really nervous and excited at the same time but I'm under no elution it will be hard with 2 xx

Havetobecrazytolivehere · 08/11/2015 12:04

Huge congrats wanting Flowers.

Melvali, I ordered a frer off amazon which was a bit cheaper than the shops. Just couldn't wait for it to arrive tho!

Told DH the news and he was a bit miffed (like lots of unprotected dtd wouldn't lead to BFP) oh well he will deal with it in his own way.
I am keeping it to myself until after my AF date has passed just in case.

FX crossed for all those still to test Grin

OwlinaTree · 08/11/2015 11:56

wantingno2 · 08/11/2015 11:54

I am 13 dpo sorry forgot to say!

redstrawberries101 · 08/11/2015 10:14

Thanks guys! I think I will try to wait to see if AF arrives first.. Just trying not to get my hopes up. Or maybe I will buy a FRER on the way to my mums this afternoon. I don't want to test too soon and it come up as bfn though

Loki17 · 08/11/2015 08:05

I see that faint line, Melvali! How many dpo are you? I got a clear line on a frer at 12dpo. In my experience they are the most reliable. When I got BFN last month it was indisputable. There was nothing, not even a hint of a line. I think they are about £10.95 in boots for two. Expensive, but not as expensive as a clear blue digital and they are worth it. Good luck!
