Ok so I'm having a rough time conceiving
Long story short I'm 4 days late! Taken 3 tests (cheap strips) all been negative! I had sex the day after I ovulated (10 days ago) my last period was the 30th of Jan!
I've not had my usual period type cramps days before I've had pinching type pains and aches,I'm tired,feel sick more than usual,when I lie on my tummy my boobs ache! I don't feel like I'm going to start my period! I'm losing the will to live! Can anybody help?

I just can't believe I've had 4 positive clear blue tests! Don't think I'll ever use these again!

Yep still bleeding 😭 not heavy but the pains are bad (I suffer with excruciating period pains!) so its definitely my period! I did a strip test this morning and thought I saw a extremely faint line but I was wrong 😔 feel so down like it's never going to happen! Xx

Are you still bleeding? Sorry you feel so deflated 😢, for what's it's worth though I ended up in a&e just after I found out I was pregnant and they wouldn't scan me as they said they wouldn't be able to see anything at that point. I believe (although could be wrong) that before 6 weeks you need an internal scan to confirm pregnancy.

If this isn't your month then fingers crossed for next month for you 😊

Quick update about the scan

I mentioned the positive tests and the negative pink dye tests and he said he couldn't see any signs of pregnancy 😔 feel so deflated about it
I'd be 2 weeks so surely they'd see something it was a pelvic scan looking at my uterus and ovaries

Yep I'd say within a minute or 2 they were there! I just don't want to build my hopes up for them to be broken again! I'm gonna go out and. It a frer test later I also have a scan later on to see if I have polysystic ovaries so will mention it to them x

OP posts:
Sewingbeatshousework · 06/03/2017 10:29

Did the lines appear instantly? If so there's a good chance you are pg! My evap line came up after the 10 minute window or whatever it is.

FRER are the most sensitive so I would completey recommend you use one of those with 1st urine of tomorrow, I got negatives with other pink eye tests but not FRER.

Fingers crossed for you!

EllisB93 · 06/03/2017 08:46

I've done 3 clear blue since yesterday and they've all been like this but the strip test with pink dye have been negative 😔 so I'll take it that I'm not pregnant x

OP posts:
Sazwest · 06/03/2017 08:19

I think I can see a very very faint line going through I'm not sure xx

Sewingbeatshousework · 06/03/2017 08:18

I think I can see a faint line, I felt like my period was coming on when I was waiting on positive result and blood doesn't always mean period.

I don't trust clear blue though as I got an evap line with them. I got a positive with FRER at 13 dpo 😊

EllisB93 · 06/03/2017 08:06

Woke up with period pains the real deal 😭 went toilet and wiped and there was a tiny bit of pink blood
I did another test but not sure if I can see anything x

HELP!
OP posts:
EllisB93 · 05/03/2017 20:58

I did but I use a cheap £1 strip test (pink/red dye) and that was a strong negative 😭 xx

OP posts:
Hotpinkangel19 · 05/03/2017 19:24

Have you retested? The last one looked promising xx good luck x

EllisB93 · 05/03/2017 18:19

Ah ok awesome Thankyou! I have another box of 2 clear blue in the cupboard also
I'm starting to think I'm not pregnant now as the pink dyes have all been solid negatives and read about the blue dye ones not being accurate 😔 feeling heartbroken ATM

OP posts:
MaccaPaccaismyNemesis · 05/03/2017 18:05

A First Response Early Response. They are the best ones I reckon

EllisB93 · 05/03/2017 17:17

Sorry to sound thick but what's frerer!? 😂🙈 x

OP posts:
MaccaPaccaismyNemesis · 05/03/2017 14:48

Get a frer! That looks positive to me Grin

EllisB93 · 05/03/2017 14:27

Which are best to buy? That one was a clear blue xx

OP posts:
countingdown2gin · 05/03/2017 14:20

Could be a positive! But I would get one that isn't blue dye as they can be a bit hard to look at.

Sazwest · 05/03/2017 13:31

@EllisB93 I'd say that's positive xx

EllisB93 · 05/03/2017 13:14

I took this around 11 this morning but not 100% if I can see something or not? Or evap line? It goes all the way through but only faint x

HELP!
OP posts:
EllisB93 · 04/03/2017 17:38

Think I'm going to come on anytime 😔 keep getting light period pains

OP posts:
EllisB93 · 04/03/2017 12:41

Ahhh I see! I'm going to start using my calendar on my phone to track everything now think it'll be easier and make more sense for me
Thankyou for all your help x

OP posts:
countingdown2gin · 04/03/2017 10:18

Apps are good to help you track but it needs a good few months of data to be accurate imo as every person is completely different.

Take some time learning your body, learn when you ovulate and the signs and symptoms of you get any, that will help you to understand when your period is due and how long each of your stages of cycle should be. Put it all in your app and it should adapt dates to your cycle.

Emma2803 · 04/03/2017 08:51

Honestly if you only ovulated last week it's way to early to test. I got a negative at 9days post ovulation and then missed my period and got my positive and now have a two year old. Stay positive, there is no way of knowing your out til period arrives.
