I can 100% see it! And the one step tests were the last to show positive for me. I bet a FRER or clearblue would have a good line!

Massive Congratulations!!

Lovechild2016 · 06/02/2017 21:43

Here is a photo. I won't be surprised if no one can see it, it's incredibly feint but I'm sure there is something there after staring at a million blank ones previously...

Congratulations that's great news!!

Lovechild2016 · 06/02/2017 21:40

Ok, slightly shaking, I caved and tested and have got what looks like a squinter. I'm only 10dpo so need to keep a lid on my excitement but it's really hard!

Hi Everyone,
I've been on and off these forums for a while and today I finally got myBFP!! Can't quite believe it has happened.
Just want to say thanks to everyone who has been supportive on here and good luck to everyone.
In case you are wondering about symptoms - not much I can say really I wasn't sure until I did the test. I've had some cramping which feels a bit different to pms, a bit lower and sharper pain, also stops and starts quite a lot.

88claire · 06/02/2017 21:35

Phew! Finally my OPK has gone back to negative (Still dark but not positive anymore). So that was 24 hours of a surge.

Never been so happy to see a negative OPK! Was reading worrying stuff about prolonged positive results.

So should I count myself in the two week wait from yesterday, today or tomorrow?

Thanks ladies!

Motherhippy16 · 06/02/2017 21:24

Hi all. I am reading through all of your posts but am in fw so nothing really to report (that can be printed anyway!) Lot software love and baby dust to all. Fx I'll be testing on the weekend of the 24th feb as not going to test till im a couple of days late x x x

ZEB91 · 06/02/2017 21:17

Just had my reading from Mary Akinson and I'm over the moon. BFP no later than in 14 weeks time.
Fingers crossed &a baby dust to you all

Ohb0llocks · 06/02/2017 20:31

I've resisted the temptation to test again today! Although at 6dpo it would be pointless Shock

Due to test on my birthday... I will be testing early though (obviously cause it's me!)

88claire · 06/02/2017 20:11

Bubblegum

I found the one step pregnancy tests showed my BFP a lot later than anything else. A clearblue was the first to show a line :)

MistyBxx · 06/02/2017 20:05

Loads of excitement on here girlies!! Love it!! Can't wait for my fw 😬 don't know what is worse, the 2ww or af-fw lol 😂

88claire · 06/02/2017 20:00

It'sjustaphase84

I always try to pee before. They were obviously negative before so something is going on to make them stay so dark. Will try one later when I get back from work and let you know!

They can show pregnancy but usually only if you could get a positive pregnancy test too. My cheapie yesterday was negative (I wondered the same thing!).

MrsC1982 · 06/02/2017 16:05

EMHW123 I am indeed peeing away, slowly getting darker from a hardly there on friday, so hoping tonight and tomorrow are the big green light times... i just use the boots own brand, cheap enough and have work well so far.

AF due on 20th but had a really short cycle last month so it brought this date forward, was originally 26th... bloody stoooopid cycles and apps :)

Itsjustaphase84 · 06/02/2017 16:02

88Claire..
Im using these opks. Do you not wee for a while before u test? Could positive opks also mean you might be pg, sure I read it somewhere. Mine never stays high for long x

Oysterbabe · 06/02/2017 15:45

I got my bfp on one last time round. I thought they were good.

Somethingtotalkabout1982 · 06/02/2017 15:41

I've just ordered the one step tests, never used before though, so also interested in any experiences with these...

Bubblegum89 · 06/02/2017 15:40

Ugh 12dpo and still getting bfn's 😢 AF is due on Wednesday. Anyone else use the one step strips from Amazon?

EMHW123 · 06/02/2017 15:00

mrsc I literally could have written your post! Are you using opks? I was meant to ovulate yesterday according to Ovia but definitely haven't yet. I'm using cb opks for the first time-expensive business!

Will be dtd tonight and hopefully another couple of times before the weekend.... when is your Aunt Flo due?

BluePheasant · 06/02/2017 14:48

Still lurking in the background, congrats on the bfp's so far.

Frustratingly am on 18dpo but bfn. No AF either Confused zero symptoms, even the pmt type symptoms have stopped. It's like my cycle has just gone on pause!

2ducks2ducklings · 06/02/2017 13:58

Can I hop on please?
Ttc #3
Age 32
Cycle 5.
AF due anytime from 27th February to 2nd March!
It's not as easy this time around! I fell pregnant within the first month of trying with my two children. Since October I've had an early miscarriage in November/December and a chemical pregnancy last week. Getting up duffed doesn't seem to be an issue, staying that way does.

MrsC1982 · 06/02/2017 12:26

Here I am in my window! peak due tomorrow (according to useless ovia) so DTD planned for tonight, tomorrow and Wednesday! couldn't move yesterday let alone DTD following a rather special tequila session on Saturday oooopsie

Got a snuggle from my friends 6 month old on Saturday, made me v jealous but also excited!

fx the concieve plus works!

congrats all those with BFP and commiserations for the BFN ppl xxxx

88claire · 06/02/2017 12:21

Missmagpie

Mine are causing me more worry as they're staying positive! These are from the last three days which I'm sure isn't normal! Aghhhhh why isn't anything simple?!

Good luck with yours though!!

MissMagpie · 06/02/2017 11:53

Sorry AF got you unicorns.

So I got another flashy smiley today - my third. Expecting peak tomorrow or the next day.

Claire that pic is very interesting - mine is heading in the right direction!

MistyBxx · 06/02/2017 11:37

Hey girlies, ah gutted I had my hopes up for some of you who I've seen had af arrive 😣 gutted Flowers
My af is on its last legs now, should be clear by tonight but already had a cheeky bit this morning just for fun knowing im not even fertile, weird how I seem to enjoy it more when I'm not in fw 🙈 typical!
So I had a very boozy weekend and enjoyed my socks off in my friend's birthday party after the disappointment of af!
Now just waiting for my fw which are 4 days apart on Ovia and Clue! Clue says 12-17 Feb, Ovia says 16-21 Feb! How can they vary so much?
Either way, looks like I will be dtd from 12th - 21st haha valentines baby maybe???❤️😜

Oysterbabe · 06/02/2017 10:03

Sorry about the afs. I'm bleeding this morning too, which I guess is a withdrawal bleed as day 4 post pill. I'm counting it as CD1. Next month is the one for us.
