Internet Cheapie.

Basically just pieces of cardboard that us addicts pee on in sheer desperation that we will see something despite the fact they're cheap and unreliable anyway Grin

Nicky883 · 22/02/2016 13:33

Congratulations Writer Grin

I am 1dpo, hello 2ww

Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 13:06

Nicky - this will be our second. DS is almost 2 Smile

Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 13:05

I was surprised as well how strong it is as I only had the positive OPK last Thursday.

It must be twins Grin

Shemozzle · 22/02/2016 12:53

Sorry kellz I have no idea about charts. I've opted for not temping because DD3 is in our room still and she wakes us up at different times each day and I don't think it would work.

Shemozzle · 22/02/2016 12:51

Ooh so there is still hope for me yet the.

Wow that line is strong on the FRER. You are only missing a digital from your collection now Wink

Nicky883 · 22/02/2016 12:43

Writer aww thats sweet ! exciting times ahead!
Is this your first ??
I wish you all the best :)

Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 12:07

Thanks Nicky!!

I have done a FRER too just for final confirmation!!

My husband is in shock I think. He keeps texting me and saying, "I don't believe it!" Grin

Congratulations writer !!

Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 11:26

When I look back at my day-by-day list of potential symptoms I started getting cramps on 5dpo and then it took another 4 days until my first tiny hint of a BFP.

Kellz92 · 22/02/2016 11:25

Definitely positive. Congrats.

Any ladies here good with charts. I haven't ovulated yet but would just like to know if my chart looks ok. I take my temp at 6am every day except 2 days has been 5.50 due to DD getting up. First day god know what happened but I'm ignoring that temp lol. New to it so have bo idea if it looks ok xx

Definitely positive writer

Well it's only second cycle of using OPK's, last cycle I had positives for 2 and a half days before it slowly faded. This time I got a faint line one day, a darker line the next but not as dark as control and then the next test it had gone. I had all other signs of ovulating then though, ewcm, ovulation cramps in the next day or so which is usual so I must have missed it in the night.

I've just found an article and not just anecdote on a forum post that says it takes 4-5 days for a positive after implantation. That most people report implantation bleeding then positive after a day or 2, but bleeding is old blood and implantation would have been earlier. And it's been 2 and a half days since the start of strong cramps, so I'm not out yet! This feels like the longest 2ww yet.

Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 10:55

I'm so weak, I have just given in to my own impatience....

March BFP bus!
Writerwannabe83 · 22/02/2016 10:50

That sounds infuriating shemozzle - do you normally get positive OPKs?

Shemozzle · 22/02/2016 10:36

writer they aren't actually faint lines. IC's never really get dark. That's quite dark for an IC. Congrats again.

rattie does that make you 10-12 dpo? I think it's possible to show symptoms from about 10. So sounds good.

So I'm completely confused as always. I'm 3 days late but bfn's. I think I OV'd later than I thought because I never actually did get a positive OPK this cycle I just got a near positive and then it had faded the next evening so I guessed. I think the earliest I could be if ov'ing later is 13dpo today. I had very painful AF type cramps on Friday night which has been ongoing on and off since then, so was really hopeful that it was implantation. I expected to get a positive today and broke out another FRER but not a hint of a line. It would show by now if implanting Friday night surely?

Tryingtowait · 22/02/2016 08:07

Well FF is saying I'm 5dpo today had a dip the past couple of days just above the cover line still. Wore a pad last night and there was like a spot on the pad and when I wiped there's brown blood. Not getting my hopes up for implantation but find it very strange as not due to come on until the 3rd. Getting impatient waiting already wish I could hibernate the next 2 weeks!

Congrats writer

queenoftheworld93 · 21/02/2016 22:09

Congratulations writer!

Writerwannabe83 · 21/02/2016 21:28

I've had another two faint lines this evening, one on a Tesco test and one on an IC. The line on the Tesco test is the faintest line you've ever seen!!!

I'm thinking of getting a FRER tomorrow....

Why does TTC have to be so stressful for us all???

queenoftheworld93 · 21/02/2016 16:05

rattie if it helps I'm 4+1 weeks and no real symptoms apart from some tiredness and a bit of nausea! Certainly nothing before period was due. Every woman is different though. Some know they are pregnant from implantation!

WhamBamThankYouStan · 21/02/2016 15:32

Well I'm either 2dpo. Or not. FF had a change of heart on ov date this morning following my temp.

Had two days of positive OPKs Thursday and Friday. Temp rose on Saturday, but I was late temping. Temp rose again this morning. So it's gone from 2dpo, to unable to confirm ov and telling me I'm "most fertile". Frustrating not knowing if I've ov'd or not. And to be honest I was looking forward to a rest Blush

We dtd last night and will do again tonight just in case. Hope FF will commit already tomorrow.
