Hi everyone! I am facing down my TWW (AF due 22nd of March) and thought, after looking at other threads of the same topics who are on the BFP/BFN now, I thought I would start another for those with their fingers crossed for late March BFPs.

I am on cycle 8 TTC #1, have used Preseed for the first time, I am taking Evening Primose Oil and I have the DH on Vit C. I am feeling really positive having DTD the day before and of ovulation, but can feel the paranoia and counting down days setting in. I feel all in the same boat can lean on each other as we try not to POAS :-/

Anyone in?

Thanks @TTCnum2, that makes sense! So the test I’ve been using wouldn’t be a sensitive one? There may still be hope!

So, I bit the bullet and went for it again with FMU this morning and it’s still negative 🙁

Feeling like this might not be my month and I might be spotting symptoms that aren’t there because I really want it!

Good luck with your test this morning @TTCnum2! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you! When I fell pregnant with my DD I was surprised at how few symptoms I had!

@member642266 so the 25 iu (international units) is the amount of hcg that needs to be in your urine for your yet to pick it up, first response is the lowest with 12iu, I think you can get some internet beans that say 10iu.

I’m the same as you I’m 4 days late, tested everyday from 7dpo-13dpo all bfn. Ten got a positive at 14dpo like a squinter but defo pink bit it literally vanished before my eyes 🤔🤔. I haven’t really had any symptoms of pregnant or AF. I’ve convinced myself I’m jot pregnant and I’m being silly wasting money doing more test, but sam as you it took ages to eat my positive with my son. If I’m not pregnant I’ll be so surprised because in my fertile period according to ovia we did it the day before and basically every other day up to 3 days after it ended, and on the day I Od according to clear blue. Doing a clear blue digital in the morning because the stupid delivery man o lot just delivered them now!

I'm out :( trying to think on the positive side and at least I can have a drink this weekend

Member642266 · 15/03/2018 19:36

Thanks @BrownEyedGirlv2point0! I’m the same, I definitely feel more like I could be pregnant now more than I ever did the first time round! I’ve got another test so might try again in the morning (who I am kidding, I have a test sitting there... I’ll definitely be trying again in the morning) but might see whether the symptoms come or go over the next couple of days and wait to see what happens when I’m due on the 21st... then again I’m not very good at waiting 😬

Stephisaur · 15/03/2018 19:32

@BrownEyedGirlv2point0 it might be possible but trying not to get my hopes up 😂 I have no idea what’s “normal” for me as this is my first “real” period in 10 years (1st cycle off the pill)

Have decided if no AF by Sunday, I’ll just use a FRER. Would rather waste one and know I’m probably out for the month than wait until next weekend 😂 don’t want to test on a weekday as it’d have to be before work xx

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 19:18

@Stephisaur Is it possible the pinkish discharge you're experiencing today is implantation bleeding? If you're AF is due the 20th the timing seems right for implantation bleeding. Is it out of norm for your AF to show up this early? With my first pregnancy (the one that ended in MC at 8 weeks) I had implantation bleeding. I don't recall too much but it was a few days before AF was scheduled to arrive as well. I did not have any implantation bleeding when I had DD1.

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 19:10

@Presh12345 I know how you feel. I had a MC at 8 weeks. It took me 7 months to conceive that pregnancy and then it took me another 7 months after MC to conceive DD1.

@Member642266 you still have time to get the BFP! I think I'm only a few days ahead of you and I tested BFN this morning on a cheap test. I too feel like I'm pregnant now, more than I did when I was pregnant with DD1. I didn't even suspect pregnancy with DD1 until AF was 1 day late. Also, try using FMU tomorrow. I think if you're pregnant now it's still too early to test using a mid day pee.

Member642266 · 15/03/2018 18:35

Can I join please! I’m ttc #2 and currently on the tww for cycle 2. I think I’m 9 dpo but I’m not sure as last time I was ttc it became apparent my cycles are all a bit all over the place and can be long!

The past couple of days I’ve had a funny metallic taste in my mouth and increasing waves of nausea. I’ve also been a bit scattery which was one of the first signs when I had my DD. By the time I got home today I had basically convinced myself I was preggers so took a test and it was... a BFN! Is it too early? Part of me is hopeful it is but the other part of me knows it took a while last time and that I’m probably overthinking things (and maybe even creating symptoms in my head...)

Also the test I used was only a cheapy from my local supermarket and I’m not sure how sensitive it was... it was 25mui/ml does that mean anything to anyone Confused

Presh12345 · 15/03/2018 17:35

Yes this is number 1. Was devastated after MMC. Happened cycle 1 but hasn't happened again.

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 17:25

Welcome @Presh12345

Are you TTC your first?

Stephisaur · 15/03/2018 17:24

@presh12345 hey af buddy!

Fx for you!

Presh12345 · 15/03/2018 16:55

Oh and AF due 20th March

Presh12345 · 15/03/2018 16:55

I'll hop on here too. 39, MMC in June, No luck since. Recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease which could have been hampering my ttc. First month ttc whilst on proper meds. Sore sore boobs and nips. Nausea this morning. 10dpo tmrw. Far too early. Light headed earlier. Oh, how happy would I be .....sigh.....

sexnotgender · 15/03/2018 16:42

Yip, can’t wait! 2 weeks in South Africa is very exciting!

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 15:51

Oh nice! I'd say you are in a win-win situation then!

sexnotgender · 15/03/2018 15:14

I was getting anxious doing the tests, and knowing a couple days earlier isn’t going to change what’s already happened or not so just trying to chill out.

Plus actually if it didn’t happen this month it’d probably be better as going on holiday in 2 weeks and doing a vineyard tour so want to be able to drink all the wine!

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 14:54

Oh, you are so patient! Mine is also due Mon/Tue but I don't know if I can wait that long. I'm thinking about getting a FRER to test with in a couple days.

sexnotgender · 15/03/2018 12:39

Due on Monday, not going to test again just going to see what Mother Nature does!

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 12:30

Thanks @Stephisaur! I will test again in a couple days to give it some time.

@sexnotgener when is AF due for you?

sexnotgender · 15/03/2018 12:27

BFN on a FRER test for me this morning and now have a stinking cold! Maybe my symptoms were just me getting ill rather than anything else.

Stephisaur · 15/03/2018 12:21

I think it depends when you implant browneyedgirl. From what I've read, it can happen between 8-10dpo and then you should start to see positives from 10-12dpo. Maybe a late implantation, don't think you're out of the running yet :)

BrownEyedGirlv2point0 · 15/03/2018 12:16

Well, today is the 15th, the day I planned to take a test. BFN. I'm about 10 or 11 dpo. The test I took was an Easy@Home test. I got a box of 25 tests. Some of the reviewers say they got BFPs as early as 8 days and others have said they've tested negative but then positive until 2 days after missed AF.

Yesterday evening I felt some tingly sensations in my breasts similar to a letdown during breastfeeding but not as strong. Also, I had a crazy vivid dream last night as well! I can't help but feel pregnant but I guess at this point I will just have to wait and see if AF shows up on the 19th or 20th.

Stephisaur · 15/03/2018 11:24

Cramps and a bit of pinkish discharge for me today. Think AF might be considering an early appearance :( will wait and see.

PreparingToBeAMummy · 15/03/2018 10:39

11 days post o I think. Af due Sunday but was 4 days late last time! So really who knows.

Stephisaur · 15/03/2018 08:28

@preparingtobeamummy sorry to hear that :(

Fingers crossed for next month - that should be late December/early Jan due date shouldn't it?
