Hi ladies! Today is 1dpo (I think?) so just heading into the tww. I'm trying for my 2nd and on C2. Anyone want to keep me company? Xx

I got the faintest of lines again on IC Today. Just checking how do you guys calculate DPO as I think I had it wrong I was including when I thought I got the surge as a DPO when in fact you ovulate 12-36 hours approx after the surge. If this is the case I am probably only 10dpo today which is making me fee better. I have ordered a pack of FRER from good old amazon which are coming today

I see something @KimRobs87!!

Got a BFN myself this morning, not surprised. Shows how much I've been on these boards because I had a dream last night I got two lines on a blue test, and my DP was so pleased but I said "I don't know because I thought I bought a FRER and this is a blue test and they're notoriously unreliable, and that's a really strong line for just 9dpo." 

Don't give up @FoxyRoxy, I'm just going to go out tonight and enjoy a few drinks and wait until Wed to check which is when Clue thinks AF is coming.

@Frizzy1986 fx for you! I can relate about the doctors thing - I’m there every 4-6 weeks so it felt wrong not to tell my GP that I’m ttc as I see him more than I see some friends!

KimRobs87 · 25/05/2018 08:04

@ I totally get it. Before we started trying I got a blood test to make sure I didn't have thyroid / diabetes etc etc. You're just doing what you need to. My af dates are totally confused for me this month, ov peak was early so would suggest I'm due in a few days rather than 31/05 like I thought. Still on 9dpo though.

@mostimproved - aww, sending you love! Have fun tonight and sending baby dust xx

@KimRobs87 ahhhh I see it! So excited for you, keeping everything crossed!

Sadly I’m pretty sure I’m out already before I even got a chance to test. Spotting is getting heavier, to the extent I can tell it will be full blown AF by tonight/tomorrow Sad I’m going out with DP tonight so at least we can drown our sorrows! I’ll stick around to see how you’re all getting on, it gives me hope!

Frizzy1986 · 25/05/2018 07:56

I've also now decided to run 2 apps with diff cycle lengths (hilariously it autocorrected diff to duff). One for 24 days and one for 27 days. We've been trying to dtd every 2-3 days anyway just so it seems less like we are aiming for something and more to just enjoy sex. How long that will last who knows though 😂
One app puts ov on 13th and the other on 17th. Dtd every 2-3 days after af up until 16th, then a gap of 5 days but not catching will just be down to luck as we've been active at the "right" times. Just means I'm either 12dpo or 8dpo. Last few cycles have been 24 so I'm more looking towards 12dpo but with bfn so far I guess I'll have to wait and see for af. Due either 28th or 31st. Think if its 28th I must be out by now. I know nothings certain until af, but it's getting unlikely.
Only on cycle 2 though so plenty of time to not stress about it.
Have a phone appointment with the doctor today to discuss my anxiety/depression meds and ttc/pregnancy. Don't think there's any issues, but I like to prepare. Prior to dd I went for a health check and to discuss ttc. I'm kinda proper and weird like that 😂

KimRobs87 · 25/05/2018 07:51

@Frizzy1986 - I really hope it's something!! You're not out until af - some people don't realise they're expecting until they have a baby so it's possible to not have symptoms anyway xxx

Frizzy1986 · 25/05/2018 07:42

@kimsrobs87 I definitely see a line. Woop woop. Test in a few days and it should be nice and clear. Fx for you.
My frers should arrive today, but don't know how long to wait to do it. Af due between tuesday and Friday. Think it's my heart keeping the hope alive but my head is telling me I'm out as any unusual feelings are slowly going and they are prob normal but I never notice (although I did think since dd I was quite clued in on my body)

KimRobs87 · 25/05/2018 07:38

@8DaysAWeek - yes (approx). I don't dare get excited yet. Of course more tests are on the way! I really wasn't expecting to see anything, I just thought 'Yeah go on then'. Happened to look part way through the time (Because I was being so breezy like nothing was going to appear) and that was there!! I really hope it is something x

8DaysAWeek · 25/05/2018 07:34

@KimRobs87 Shock def a line there! Are you 9dpo?

8DaysAWeek · 25/05/2018 07:33

Fingers crossed for the next few days @FoxyRoxy

KimRobs87 · 25/05/2018 07:21

@TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong - I know right!! Is it possible to get indents / evaps etc within the time scale? Xx

OP posts:
TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong · 25/05/2018 07:10

@KimRobs87 I see something!!!!!! 😬

KimRobs87 · 25/05/2018 07:04

So, obviously I caved and I swear there's something there! Obviously my hubby can't see it! Am I crazy? It's a frer and it came up in the time scale! Xx

Thanks @tittifers! I read @Stars post after I posted, I know there's a chance still but I don't feel pregnant at all so I'm not hopeful. Have popped a tampon in my bag just in case!

TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong · 25/05/2018 06:43

Oh @FoxyRoxy there's still time! Enjoy your day out today though!!

FoxyRoxy · 25/05/2018 06:21

Bfn this morning. My LP is only 10 days so af is due on Sunday, I won't test again until Tuesday if she doesn't show but I'm pretty sure that's me out xx will stay on the thread though and crossing everything for you all! xx

starsandstuff · 25/05/2018 00:02

Don’t know if anyone’s come across this before? www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=9
Basically a breakdown of how likely you are to get a BFP on the various dpo. Interesting that less than half of pregnant women get a BFP at 9dpo but 2 thirds get a BFP at 10dpo. I was talking to DP and I’m going to test in the morning cos I’d like him to be there and otherwise I’d be doing it before I head out, and I’d like to do it before drinking just in case! But if it’s BFN I’ll not be too disappointed going by this.

Frizzy1986 · 24/05/2018 23:10

Oh no @catspajamas85 that sucks. I'm thinking I'll be joining soon, but im waiting it out until she shows.

KimRobs87 · 24/05/2018 22:19

I know I'm symptom spotting but, what do you think ewcm means at 7/8 dpo? I'm really hoping it's something preg related and that I haven't ovulated late? I got my peak 9 days ago so fingers crossed that's true? P.s - I haven't had loads of ewcm but certainly more than the last few months. Maybe tmi but don't normally have much leading up to af? Xx

starsandstuff · 24/05/2018 22:18

Aw sorry @Catspajamas85. Enjoy your wine, and onwards to next cycle WineThanks

mostimproved · 24/05/2018 21:42

Oh no catspajamas85 well at least you can enjoy your wine!

I’ve caved into amazon prime and ordered my FRERs for tomorrow as well. Had some light brown spotting today though and my temp is on the way down so I reckon AF is on the way, but then I’m only on CD22 surely still have a few days of waiting either way. I’m already planning what to do differently next cycle though in anticipation of a BFN.

8DaysAWeek · 24/05/2018 21:37

Yeah def worthwhile testing tomorrow for you @FoxyRoxy

Aw that's shit @Catspajamas85 :(

FoxyRoxy · 24/05/2018 21:32

@8DaysAWeek I know what you mean, even with dd who wasn't at all planned or expected I still "knew" I think about 9 or 10 dpo as I had odd random things like metallic taste and implantation spotting. I'll test in the morning as I would feel guilty if I didn't and I drank but I don't have that feeling at all xx

FoxyRoxy · 24/05/2018 21:27

@Catspajamas85 I'm sorry lovely, enjoy your wine and sending baby dust for your next cycle xx
