There does seem to be loads of BFPs! Feel like I might be about to let the side down!

SydBound27 · 18/08/2017 16:03

@wonderfully congratulations! How are you feeling??

Holy smokes this must be a record. Anyone kept track of the stats? Shock

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 15:56

Thank you @Chooklass and @holzyb20 this thread seems to have a lot of baby dust floating about!

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 15:54

@Wonderfully - that's a very clear line!! Congrats!

holzyb20 · 18/08/2017 15:44

Thank you and congratulations!! I'm definitely getting some symptoms lower back ache headaches, quite tired but feeling mildly crampy x

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 15:42

@holzyb20 squinting to and can see the line you mean! Definite retest tomorrow will keep everything crossed for you

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 15:41

I caved and tested early....kinda shaking guys I'll admit!! That's a line right....

I see it in the 4th photo too - faint but there's colour there!

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 15:28

I think I see a faint line on your 4th pic! Exciting!

holzyb20 · 18/08/2017 15:11

Probably going to look like a mad woman 😂 x

They are literally not visable in pictures which is driving me mad (although visable in real life!) So I did take it out and done some tweaking it's definitely there! X

Oooh @holzyb post a pic so we can have a good squint! Exciting!

I think I might just be out. I did another frer (midday wee, granted) and it was soooo bfn. I was zooming in and out of the photos thinking I could see something but I think if you've got to work that hard it really isn't a line! Just waiting for af to arrive now. So depressing after 16 months ttc and any potential age gap getting wider and wider. Really want DD to have a baby siibling as she'd love it so much. All our friends with one have now had their second, and seeing them has become really hard. Anyway, enough moaning. I'm soooo over ttc.

holzyb20 · 18/08/2017 14:55

I'm still in.... Not out just yet but quite unsure this month normally I just know when AF is about to arrive but I haven't had it this month she's due in 2/3 days had my day 21 bloods back today at 55nmol so I'm assuming I definitely ovulated?
Done a clear blue test today -Not fmu and SURE I see a really faint line! Going out tomorrow to try and get a FRER x

CuppaTea86 · 18/08/2017 14:47

I'm still in the running but v v sure AF is coming tomorrow (was due today) no preg symptoms at all and feeling pressure in my back.
Going for drinks with my friend tonight so I would feel guilty not testing before drinking a bottle glass of wine but seeing yet another bfn might also ruin my night.
Fingers crossed for everyone still in the running!

Betsyboo87 · 18/08/2017 14:31

@Chooklass that's annoying that you ov'd a little later but it does explain the results. Hopefully next month will give you some good results. My u/s is on Tuesday as she said to book it for as soon as af finishes. I can't remember what she said about a full bladder though??

Agreed this is a great thread!

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 13:33

@WonderfullySunny I hope so! I have no symtoms either. Mild cramping today could be early AF signs or BFP ... good luck x

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 13:31

@Polly85 This is a lovely thread, I was thinking the same this morning. I hope it carries on.

@Betsyboo87 Sorry to hear of AF. I just got blood results from Doc and my day 21 test showed I 'probably' ovulated, but progesterone a bit low to be 'definite'. I ov'd 2 days later that expected so think test was a bit early in hindsight, so maybe ok. Got to do again next month. Overall kind of relieved that it wasn't a 'definitely not', but not out of woods. Did you get your u/s today?

Betsyboo87 · 18/08/2017 13:26

Good luck to you too @WonderfullySunny

Betsyboo87 · 18/08/2017 13:26

Fingers crossed for you @SydBound27! There's room for another bfp!

Just reread my comment - it was meant to say should't count ourselves out until af arrives not should!

SydBound27 · 18/08/2017 13:25

Thanks @polly, I'm hoping the luck of this thread will rub off on all of us leftover!

@Sunny yes I think that's really common. Boobs were all I had last pregnancy and everything else came much later. You're not out until you're out! Are you testing tomorrow then?

Polly85 · 18/08/2017 13:20

Thanks for all the congrats everyone, I don't want to leave this thread because everyone is so lovely! I'm sticking around Grin

Polly85 · 18/08/2017 13:19

@Chooklass this was or 2nd attempt. We have been really lucky x

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 13:18

@SydBound27 still in as AF hasn't come as yet so suppose can't out yet but not feeling different if you know what I mean. Does BFP happen with no symptoms?

Polly85 · 18/08/2017 13:18

@SydBound27 I have everything crossed for you, my spotting stopped yesterday so could be a good sign? Smile

Polly85 · 18/08/2017 13:17

@Betsyboo87 sorry to hear that news Flowers
