Hi indi.

I would cautiously say on the first black and white photo I can see one. Is it a FRER?

IndiX · 04/01/2016 11:49

Last picture I promise...
This was the test first thing. My DH is now convinced there is a 2nd line...oh fuck sake I'm emotional and confused. I felt so positive this morning that I was looking forward to my AF and my health kick.
Will test tomorrow again..at least I'm not going too crazy if you can see too Grin

Dr I test with cheapies off amazon (not the stick ones) but have heard first response early results are good so have some of them away in my cupboard behind all of my used opks Blush

Indi definitely test again tomorrow! How exciting

DrWhy · 04/01/2016 11:37

Thanks Indi and Miley - yes, he probably was just trying to say the right thing, he's not that great with emotions! I have already quizzed him about whether he's really on board with this and his response was 'when have I ever agreed to do something k don't want to do' true although not the overwhelming excitement I was hoping for!
So... If I were to test, where is the best place to get sticks from? There is a boots with parking vaguely on my way home from the office or various supermarkets and do I need to spend a fortune on clear blue?
Indi that looks very much like a line in the middle to me! Test again tomorrow morning...!

IndiX · 04/01/2016 11:36

But it's out of the time frame?! I'll
Show you it when I first did the test this morning but in convinced myself there was nothing there so threw it in the bin after a couple of minutes..

indi call me crazy but I can see a line....

Mileymoocow · 04/01/2016 11:29

There's a line in my eyes Indi!!!!!!!!!

IndiX · 04/01/2016 11:28

I think I'm going insane.
So I did a test this morning and kind of thought I could see a shadow of some sort but then me and DH agreed we were going crazy and there was no 2nd line.
Just broken open the test and you can clearly see the evap and test line but is there a 2nd line in between?!?!!! I've changed the contrast on the photo so you can see clearly.
Omg am I going mental?!
I know its out of the time limit but I also broke open my FR one from the other day and no 2nd line at all.

Ni it's taking everything I have! I just figure I've waited 2 weeks, what's 2 more days. Plus I'm sure af is coming.Baby snuggles are the best Smile I had my godson out shopping last week and everyone thought he was mine. I burst into tears in the car because I was so excited for it to eventually be my baby Blush

Dr I'm sure he will just be saying that to help keep you positive and stop you being too disappointed Smile spotting could have been IB?? I say test Wink

IndiX · 04/01/2016 11:17

Hi DrWhy,
I think you're stressing to much tbh, I'm not sure about your cycles etc becuase I'm only new to TTC myself but where your DH is concerned I think he's just trying to make you feel better if you said you were out. My DH says things like that so I'm not so disappointed, I think he was just trying to be kind and not have you feel bad on his part too. I know that when I get a bfn I feel like I let my DH down he would think I was mad if I told him that. I really wouldn't worry too much, I'm sure he will be delighted if you get a bfp! Fx for you!!

DrWhy · 04/01/2016 11:11

no DTD in the 1st sentence - not now!

DrWhy · 04/01/2016 11:10

I'm totally confused now, one 26 day cycle off the pill with now DTD (DH away). Then next cycle we started TTC but no ovulation sticks or anything, lots of DTD most days. AF due today based on 28 day cycle. I got some bleeding about 5 days ago which I thought was start of AF along with cramps but it sort of gave up after a few hours and I have had grotty brown spotting ever since but with the cramps I usually get with AF.
No early response tests in boots yesterday and I feel silly spending a fortune on tests when I could just wait - it feels so much like AF already. If my cycle really is 28 days I guess a regular test would give me an answer in the next few days. Not sure what to do now.
I'm worried as I told DH when I thought I was out for the month and he was totally unbothered and when I said I was a bit sad about it he did it was probably a good thing as I would just start stressing if I was pregnant. So now I'm worried that if I am he doesn't really want it and won't be supportive, arghh! He did agree to TTC but I think he'll just be cross that I said it was unlikely to happen on the 1st cycle if it actually has, eek!

IndiX · 04/01/2016 11:08

Ni I'll be about 15dpo I think so I'm pretty sure AF is on its way.
Just finished my first gym session of the year, feel SO much better now Grin

StarkyTheDirewolf · 04/01/2016 10:47

bunch Im trying sooo hard not to test! I've been going straight for a wee as soon as I open my eyes so I haven't got he chance to save my fmu! I have a stubborn iron will! Woke up feeling a bit sick again, wind and cramps!

Sorry about the bfn's guys, but like our bunchy says, you're not out till you're out! And even then youre practically in again cause it's only a week off!

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 10:41

Oh and we totally tormented ourselves yesterday hanging out with a 3 week old baby!! Beautiful house, cosy living room, roaring fire, and baby snuggling. Hope that's a snapshot of our future!

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 10:40

Sorry to hear that Indi. How many dpo are you?

Yup back to work...but still eating the shortbread biccies. Must start saying no to the junk!

Miley how are you resisting?!

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 09:47

Sorry to read that indi but glad you're staying positive! ☺

Mileymoocow · 04/01/2016 09:44

I'm due to test today according to Ovia but I'm still convinced af is imminent so I'm going to wait a few days.

Ni I've been sweating my tits off for a few days and I'm usually cold too. Hopefully it's a sign but I'm not getting my hopes up

First day back at work today boooooo

BunchOfBobs · 04/01/2016 09:34

You're not out 'Til you're out ladies.

purplesmiler · 04/01/2016 09:14

Quick update tested just now also bfn don't know what's going on with my body.

IndiX · 04/01/2016 09:10

Bfn this morning ladies with the super drug sensitive test, but I'm fine and looking forward to AF getting here who would've thought I'd say that! This month I'm going to focus on getting my fitness, health and body back after that indulgent Xmas period, off to the gym soon wish me luck, probably pass out after 10 mins on treadmill and now I know to have sex A LOT more. We did DTD often in December but January is going to be all day everyday if we can!! Grin
Have a good day ladies, especially if it's your first day back in work xx

BunchOfBobs · 04/01/2016 09:09

I never got any hot sweats Ni. But you're supposed to warm up when pregnant, I'm just a weirdo who is cold instead.

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 08:55

Oh hello pugmum too!!

Shelb should have added you into that grad question! You 4 are our grads, right? Hard to keep up!

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 08:53

Welcome Lauren and Swim!!

24cycles trying Swim? How frustrating! Have you and OH got checked out? You're at the magic age when they'll get you checked out quick (I'm 33...not far behind you!)

Google is not my friend this morning....Couldn't sleep last night cos I felt so damn hot...Google says it could be early pregnancy sign! I'm not optimistic this month as we were apart part of fertile week...but I might live in the fantasy for the morning! Wink bunch Runner pink did you guys have night sweats/hot flashes?

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 08:03

I live in a small village lauren ... Dr's are always good with getting you an appointment but the nurse is always booked up for Blood tests! :) feeling as nauseous a a ever this morning 😷😷
