Any October testers?

Af due on weds😁

I read this thread this morning and was just waiting for some peace tonight to post....I was hoping to be an Oct tester but period unexpectedly arrived today, at least 4 days early! A vague hope it was implant bleeding since I'm about 10dpo but it really does seem like a proper period. Though my boobs are massive which isn't a usual symptom for me. But think I'd be getting my hopes up to think about implantation bleeding. This is so frustrating!! My last few month cycles were 27, 26 then 26 days, then this one is 23. Ggrrrr!! I'm gonna keep following this thread though, good luck everyone!

I did a test today, stupidly, and obviously it was a BFN. Am trying not to test again until Thursday but I'm not sure I'll be able to hold back

waves I'm 7dpo and having LOADS of symptoms but AF isn't due until Sunday. Am going mad wondering when I should test!!

It's the biggest relief. We basically thought it wasn't going to happen for us as I'm 36 and my husband is nearly 39.

He's been walking around with a huge grin on his face and he's so excited. He keeps saying to me "I'm going to be a dad".

I'm desperate to tell people and keep going back to look at my test.

Big big congrats @Si1ver
Must be such a relief for you!!

@pinkchocolatex I am due to be testing around 10/11 but am going crazy with wanting to test now this is going to be a looonnngg week. Xx

Congratulations si1ver lovely needs x

@si1ver congratulations bet you're so excited!!! xx

Don't be silly Colonel, thanks for the congratulations and I hope things look up for you.

The only thing that I can identify which was different this month was that I felt super mucusey (tmi) but we honestly had sex three times in my fertile window and didn't bother with lying down afterwards or raising my legs. If honestly given up.

Apologies si1ver I missed your post when I was having a moan above - massive congratulations! Great stuff, well done you x

Thanks AnythingNotEverything!

That's my very first BFP and I'm vascilitating between terrified and super excited.

Si1ver! Congratulations!

Hey everyone. AF due for me sat/Sun, bfn on a frer this morning so I'm not getting my hopes up plus my chart was all over the place this month but ultimately didn't look like I ovulated (No real temp rise). Had quite painful cramping for the last week, I'll do a normal test if AF not here by this time next week I guess.

Wishing the rest of you all the luck and positivity I wish I had for myself!!

Hello hello ladies...I'm an October tester yippee although I just want to be pregs now ..AF due on 10/11th October with Ovulation on 26th September so I guess 6dpo...ugh I just can't stop POAS - really want it to be this cycle with us! I would love a June baby and tbh it's just started to really get me down with the waiting. I've got no symptoms apart from slightly heavier boobs but that happens when AF is due anyway!!! Arghhh

Hello fellow October testers, thanks for setting up the group @mrsmumtobe

I am currently 8/9 DPO and AF due on 8/10. Travelling with work atm, so lots of evenings on my own away from hubby and feel like I am perhaps over analysing every little difference in my body. going insane
last week on 5/6 dpo lots of cramps and 'pulling'. saw people experience this before, but never felt it... weird sensation.
boobs very itchy, like insatiable, have to keep rushing to the bathroom as its very intense.
this is my 4th cycle TTC, with a very early chemical pregnancy in cycle 2. this will be baby number 1.

when would you girls test?? I have been restrained until now and I know the right answer is wait until AF is late.... but I have bought the clear blue early test and dying to do. So AF is due in 7 days!

sending you all good vibes whatever stage on your cycle you are at!!

We've been trying for 18 months and tbh had agreed to start adoption proceedings after Christmas. I stopped posting about trying because it was getting me down so much. My period isn't due for another two days, but I felt absolutely rotten this morning and my breasts have been aching for close to a week so I poas for the first time in six months

Can I join currently 5dpo on second cycle 🙂 last cycle i POAS too many times so trying to keep busy till af due next Monday

I tracked my cycles with reasonable success for the 18m before ttc by cm and using the clue app.

Since ttc I’ve been using opks (just cheapies) glow app and also keeping an eye on cm. This month I got a positive opk next cd10 and ewcm leading up to that. I have short cycles but this was early even for me!

I use an app to track AF etc which says when it is likely to occur, but I can tell also when I ovulate. There's a clear change in CM and often libido too.

@Pumpkinpatch000 I might be wrong but I think they're roughly all the same I think, I'm using just the cheap ones at the moment but I suppose for extra reassurance clear blue or first response are your best:) They do all work the same though.
