I'm out! AF arrived yest, making my luteal phase 11 days, surely that's not normal, and my AF is so so light it was the same last month extremely light I'm beginning to worry something is wrong so going to take a trip to the doctors see if we can figure out what's going on.

FX for everyone still in! x

Mumma100 · 18/04/2018 17:34

@twittlebee I know!!! They go do brown!!

SJB90 · 18/04/2018 08:26

@twittlebee so sorry 🤞 for next month x

So last night I spotted again, it was a little more than the morning before lasted a couple of hours with just traces of the toiletpaper(tmi) was dreading waking up this morning to the wrath of AF but it has stopped again. Absolutely nothing. And my BBT seems to be on the rise again.

I caved and took an internet cheapie and was BFN. Going to wait a couple of days and test on Friday with a FRER! Still hopeful ill get a BFP 🤞🤞🤞🤞

TwittleBee · 18/04/2018 06:18

Mumma100 haha yeah I just how much my bloody nipples changed so quickly! I actually cried to DH about it haha.

How's everyone today? Anything promising?

My temps dropped massively so AF certainly here. No more POAS early for me, can't handle this disappointment again

lolacola13 · 17/04/2018 21:53

Fruit pastilles LOL 😂

Mumma100 · 17/04/2018 21:25

It’s defo 12, if you look on the leaflet inside it should say, I remember clear blue digital is 25 aswell. 12 is actually pretty low, for you to be classed as pregnant you need a level of hcg above 5, so 12 is pretty low, and yes the lower the number the more sensitive the test.

As for nipples I remember with ds they they were more erect, and almost wider when erect, I remember being at my friends wedding and wearing a daily thick dress and it looked like I had fruit pastels in my bra 🙈😂, I was 17 weeks then though, can’t remember noticing anything this early though

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 21:15

Ah wow I really thought they would be a bit more sensitive than 12. I couldn't find it stated on the packet, just fished it out of the recycling to see if it stated on there

lolacola13 · 17/04/2018 21:10

That's the amount of hcg it needs for a positive so the lower the better.. where did I get 6.5 from? I'm sure Iv heard that more than once before ... someone verify this.my brain is snookered from revising I don't know my own name this evening.

Pinklily1 · 17/04/2018 21:08

And I’m sure randomly erect nipples is a sign!

Pinklily1 · 17/04/2018 21:07

Apparently FRER is 12.5 and Sainsbury’s is 15. There is a list on babycentre. Does that mean FRER is more sensitive? I’m rubbish at these things!

lolacola13 · 17/04/2018 20:40

@Mumma100 I thought frer was 6.5?? Lol

Mumma100 · 17/04/2018 20:38

@pinklilly1 are they the same sensitivity for hcg? I know frer is 12 so if it the other one is a bit high it may be too soon?

Mumma100 · 17/04/2018 20:36

Oh and I’m noticing my nipples a lot more too f that makes sense? I just orushed my hand Past it and it jut seemed to be a lot more erect then normal 😂, and they just seem to be poking trough my tops more. That could just be more though! 😂

Pinklily1 · 17/04/2018 20:35

I know exactly what you mean SJB, it’s a rollercoaster.

After my faint positive on the FRER yesterday, I got a BFN on a sainsburys blue dye one tonight. I’m trying to tell myself it’s because blue dye ones are crap, but I’m not convinced. I swing between thinking I’m pregnant and definitely not being.

mumma, vomiting is a good sign surely (in a TTC way obviously!)

Mumma100 · 17/04/2018 20:27

Nipples are a bit sensitive today, and temp still seems a bit elevated... no other symptoms that I’ve noticed really

Mumma100 · 17/04/2018 20:26

@pinklily1 I think congrats are in order as that looks 200% positive! I could see it straight away, defo not an evapline line!

SJB90 · 17/04/2018 19:56

So annoying I've been trying not to symptom spot but I cant help myself, I vommited after I opened the fridge the other day. One day I really believe this is our month but then the next I'm convinced it's not 🙄 Its hard trying to avoid getting your hopes up to try and save yourself from the heartbreak that comes which each cycle 😣

RoxytheRexy · 17/04/2018 19:27

It’s bonkers how you drive yourself mad isn’t it? My DH smelt really rank to me earlier so I convinced myself I was pregnant. Literally 5 minutes later I had convinced myself I had period pain

Fingers crossed for you

SJB90 · 17/04/2018 19:22

@roxytherexy well if it's a BFP it'll certainly be more prominent by Thursday!! FX for you.

I've been spotting again this evening. Spotted yest morning just the one bit and had the same again tonight. lost of CM with a tinge of pinkish. I'm hoping it's not AF on its way not due till Sunday. Also find it really strange that I was convinced that I ovulated twice this month just under 24hrs apart and had spotting just over 24hrs apart! Think I'm sending myself crazy haha going to leave it 2 days before I POAS incase it is implantation 🤞🤞

RoxytheRexy · 17/04/2018 18:19

@SJB90 I thought I saw 2 lines as well. Just had another look and 1 definitely looks pink. With my first I took a test at 3/4 days late so I got a very solid line.

It could also be that it’s been in my moldy bathroom cupboard for a couple of months as AF has been early so no need to test.

I’m working tomorrow so don’t know when I’ll have chance to pick some up. It will probably be Thursday afternoon before I can get some. I’ll know by then anyway

SJB90 · 17/04/2018 17:42

@Roxy I can defo see another line but there looks to be 2 more?? One looks like it has colour and the other doesnt maybe an evap and then a faint test line... I'd defo be testing again though 🤞🤞

RoxytheRexy · 17/04/2018 16:46

Help me out here please...

What’s this? It’s a Superdrug own brand and AF is due today and I feel normal really

sexnotgender · 17/04/2018 14:24

Thank you everyone for your kind words.
I got my BFP on day 31 of my cycle, I was 3 days late as my cycle is usually 27/28 days.
I’m only on cycle 3 so not entirely sure exactly when I ovulate I was just guessing at day 14 or so! Was on the pill for around 10 years prior to ttc.

Happysbno4 · 17/04/2018 12:29

@sbj thank you..

Was a very faint positive so pleased I did at 3am. Celebrated with a glass of milk to get me off to sleep after.

OH reaction was " was that code red or did you test!"

Let's see for sure in next few days this was day 32 of my cycle. My Sunday test was negative.

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 10:39

Yeah it was a FRER Pinklily1 AF due Friday. I'll test again then is AF is a No show
