Hi ladies.
This was the first month not tracking after trying for 8 months and getting nowhere.
My last 3 cycles lasted 28, 29 and 32 days, but think the last one may have been a CP.
No idea which date I actually ovulated, but felt cramping on and off since early last week and I'm due AF any time from Monday.

Think I'm going to do a test at the weekend, because I can't just sit and wait! Praying it's a BFP Thanks

This was the clear blue early detection as I just had one in the house. I might get a frer and then just some cheapy Tesco pink ones or something to keep testing over the next week.

I'll be so tempted to test again later but I should atleast wait until fmu tomorrow I know. I know it is funny, with dh away and then so much going on it's been not a great time so it was last thing on my mind tbh, which may have helped I guess!

I just want a definite darker line to let myself really believe it x

Yeyeyeyeyey! What test was this? I've heard the blue ones are harder to read than the pink ones, first response early result are great. If I were you I'd either wait until tomorrow morning or not drink much until your next test as with it being so faint you'll need quite concentrated urine to get a result. And you thought were out this month - funny isn't it?!

sprinkleofsunshine · 23/06/2018 10:10

Oh gosh I can't believe it, I don't want to let myself get too carried away. I cried but dh is very let's get another test and check bless him, think he's worried.

I'll be going out in a bit to wipe the shop of all their tests and then hopefully I may be joining you on the boards @Murphyrocks Grin

Murphyrocks · 23/06/2018 10:06

Definite line @sprinkleofsunshine, huge congratulations! Come join us in the March 2019 baby group! So so happy for you!

sakuramiyagi · 23/06/2018 09:56

I definitely see it too @sprinkleofsunshine

Congratulations Grin

VenusStarr · 23/06/2018 09:46

I see it @sprinkleofsunshine! Congratulations! :)

sprinkleofsunshine · 23/06/2018 09:42

I should say first ttc but I have had one previous mc x

sprinkleofsunshine · 23/06/2018 09:41

Can you see it @Deehit this is my first so I'm trying not to get my hopes up but also I did burst into tears when it came up so that's working well for me.

Deehit · 23/06/2018 09:40

@sprinkleofsunshine congrats

sprinkleofsunshine · 23/06/2018 09:37

Can you help me with you line eyes? Caved and tested this morning just been feeling like I've been hit by a truck last couple of days but only first thing in morning & at night and boobs are sore at sides and into arms. Yest when I thought af had arrived It was because I had tony streak of bright red blood mixed with cm once but then it changed to brown/pink and then cleared up and nothing since.

I think I can see a faint line, it's as thick as the control and it came up straight away which is most I've ever had- sorry if photo no good my hands are shaking like a leaf!!

Anyone due AF next week & want to join the final countdown?!
VenusStarr · 23/06/2018 00:13

We're on the same page :) feel relieved. Having a lovely evening out together and feeling relaxed for the first time in a while. Thank you for the support @Murphyrocks and @sprinkleofsunshine x

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 20:44

Hope your chat with dh goes well @VenusStarr, totally understand where you're coming from ttc is so stressful and consuming. Hope it does you a world of good.

sprinkleofsunshine · 22/06/2018 20:30

Meant to say @VenusStarr I hope a little break does wonders for you and ypu get your bfp first month back ttc Grin

sprinkleofsunshine · 22/06/2018 20:16

I totally get where you are coming from @VenusStarr as this month was kind of a right off it's been so much less stressful!

It's hard once you decide to start ttc, we said we were going to see what happen as such but with the infection, each of us being away etc we've only ended up dtd about twice each month around my fw anyway. Next month I want to start properly ttc but I'm worried about the pressure I put on myself already when it's supposed to be a fun time.

Af went as fast as it came so over analysing that now too lol.

VenusStarr · 22/06/2018 12:30

Fingers crossed for you @Murphyrocks, looking promising.

Sorry to hear about af @sprinkleofsunshine

I'm going to chat with dh tonight about having a break from ttc, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by it so feel like I need a break for a while. It's starting to bother him too so think we need a break to focus on us for a bit. Feel quite positive about it, this week has been emotionally draining.

Got my fingers crossed that when I'm ready you'll all be on the pregnancy boards :)

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 09:06

Sorry to hear that @sprinkleofsunshine, but I guess silver lining that earlier af means onto the next cycle and next chance of conceiving! Got everything crossed for you.

sprinkleofsunshine · 22/06/2018 08:48

I think af may be here for me 2 days early?! Was fully expecting to be late again this month Hmm wasn't expecting much this month anyway but a bit annoyed that my regularity seems to be going out the window and now I've no idea what's happening.

sprinkleofsunshine · 22/06/2018 08:28

@Murphyrocks I'm new to this but that seems like a pretty good line for 9dpo? I can def see it without enlarging the picture or squinting.

Keeping everything crossed for you Grin

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 08:24

Thanks @sprinkleofsunshine!

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 08:23

@Laura549678! How frustrating for you, but at least means you can hold out hope!

Thanks to you and @FlapJackered re the line! I'm pretty convinced it's there but I'm only 9dpo so it's very early days, and with me being in my 30s and hubby in his 40s the chance of a CP are very high (pretty sure I had one last month) so I'm trying not to get ahead of myself.

sprinkleofsunshine · 22/06/2018 08:23

I can def see a line @Murphyrocks 

@Laura549678 that sounds very promising!! Fx!

FlapJackered · 22/06/2018 08:18

I see a line!! fx'd @Murphyrocks but looks positive!

Good luck @Laura549678 sounds promising

Laura549678 · 22/06/2018 08:17

@murphyrocks sure I can see something there!! Just looking back at my phone calendar for dd1 and it was 13 days from my missed af last time it eventually showed positive... so I still have hope! Lol x congrats!

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 08:06

@Laura549678 the ic (Internet cheapy) is pretty much a stark negative but I think I might see something on the frer (first response early result) posted above so I'd definitely say give it a try! Thoughts on mine?!

Murphyrocks · 22/06/2018 08:04

Oh sorry yes would help if I actually attached things wouldn't it?! Here it is. Thoughts welcome!
