Af cramps on and off all day yesterday. Different to the cramps/pains at 8/9dpo, so I'm pretty sure she's on her way.
Fully expected to wake up to her this morning, but noting.
Not actually due till tomorrow/Sunday so was surprised to have such strong cramps so early 🤔

Sorry to hear that @loveshinealight 😕

Sorry to hear that loveshinealight xx

Negative frer this morning 😢

KinCat · 08/11/2018 23:36

NoParticularPattern my ICs look like yours but, yeah, I know I'll get negatives on other tests so I haven't bothered yet. Will try at the weekend if I don't start bleeding today.

My chart is looking lovely though! I normally have a temp drop on day 10 and start spotting then so either I'm pregnant or my luteal phase is getting a bit longer.

Hi everyone finally making the jump over from the October bus
Ttc dc2
Cycle 9
CD8

Am predicting ovulation at the weekend but we are dtd every other day.
I went to the GP on Tuesday and am getting some blood tests done and DH a sperm analysis. Also been told to reduce stress levels but that's easier said than done!

NoParticularPattern · 08/11/2018 18:50

I know it looks SO positive that I was surprised this morning when I got a negative. FRERs are coming tomorrow though so will test Saturday which would be three days since that positive that may or may not have turned up in the time frame. Should give me a result one way or the other!

@loveshinealight those do look positive. I wonder why FRER isn’t picking it up? Mind you I’ve always had best results with FRERs in the morning so fingers crossed!

loveshinealight · 08/11/2018 18:48

No a different sample about an hour later x

Wishful30 · 08/11/2018 18:02

@loveshinealight ugh it's so annoying not knowing for sure!
The others look positive so maybe the FRER just hasn't picked it up. Was it the same urine sample?

loveshinealight · 08/11/2018 17:51

They are both Sainsburys! I've now had a negative on a frer though 😕

Wishful30 · 08/11/2018 17:49

@loveshinealight what tests are you using?
I just got some of Boots new ones which apparently are 5days early but don't know if they're any good.

I kinda just wanna go poas now for the heck of it 😂

Wishful30 · 08/11/2018 17:47

Oooohhhh @loveshinealight @NoParticularPattern they look positive!! 😁

Better than what I got, and now I have af cramps... early 🤦🏻‍♀️
Such a shame, would've been perfect timing for telling the parents on Christmas Day!

🤞🏻 you both have sticky little beans!! Xxx

loveshinealight · 08/11/2018 17:26

@NoParticularPattern - that looks positive!

loveshinealight · 08/11/2018 17:13

Other one now has a line too! Negative frer though. Got another for the morning

Hi everyone, last month and this month I've not been getting any positive opk but spotting and cramping mid cycle ( Never had it before). Do you think I'm ovulating without positive opk - not even faint line showing on tests

NoParticularPattern · 08/11/2018 15:46

This is the photo of the test. It looks very grey in this photo but it definitely has colour in the flesh. Who knows! I guess I’ll find out come Saturday when I test with a FRER, don’t suppose agonising over an IC is going to change the outcome one way or another 😂😂

It did come up in the window but doesn't look right. I did the other one in The pack an hour later and it was a BFN.

KinCat · 08/11/2018 14:43

Which one is the test line? If it came up within the time it could be a positive but it does look quite skinny (the vertical cross, the other vertical line by itself looks thicker).

NoParticularPattern and loveshinealight I read that if you dip the test back into plain water an evap will disappear. Not sure how true that is though.

loveshinealight · 08/11/2018 13:46

Positive or evap line? I'm cd 35 today!

I’m just going to sidle in here!

I’m 27 and we are TTC #2. I am still breastfeeding our 9mo and have had three (currently this is my fourth) full cycles since 3 months PP. My cycles are a bit all over because of said breastfeeding so since my cycles came back they’ve been 59, 45 and 28 days. Now to my current situation. Currently on CD 35 and no sign of AF. We didn’t bother with OPKs as my cycles aren’t reliable enough to not spend a fortune but we have managed DTD every other day at least for the last month.

Here’s my issue. I’ve done a few IC tests since I am officially “late” according to my previous cycle, all BFN- absolutely no hint if a line. Yesterday afternoon I did an IC, looked at it briefly within a few seconds but then had to leave it and forgot until bed time. I pick it up to chuck it and there’s a clear line- no doubt about it no having to squint. Now clearly this was out of the time frame but I don’t know when the line appeared since I left it after less than a minute! Thought I’d do another this morning and nothing. Possibly a hint of a line but I have to really squint. Chances of the line on the last test being a HUGE evap? I’ve never had one before (or if I have it has been super squinty squint so I’ve written it off anyway).

Anyway I’ve got some FRERs coming tomorrow so I’ll do one of them on Saturday but just wondering if anyone else has had a really obvious evap on ICs? Possibility that I ovulated late (I did used to- CD 17-19 of a 28-31 day cycle) so this is making the tests wacky? I guess I’ll find out at some point!

Hoping to see lots of BFPs in the coming weeks!!

Wishful30 · 08/11/2018 08:48

@KinCat if I ovulated later than I thought, we definitely missed it!! 🤦🏻‍♀️

KinCat · 08/11/2018 08:16

Hmm idk Wishful I've read lots of things online that say it's 12dpo frers which are considered definitive. Could you perhaps have ovulated later than you think?

Wishful30 · 08/11/2018 07:19

Cd26 11dpo
I think I need to accept I'm not pregnant and query the LH tests? 🤔

bunhead34 with the stick ovulation tests when you get a positive it means you'll ovulate in the next 24-48 hours so yeah, having sex around the time you get a positive is the best way to time it.

KinCat · 07/11/2018 23:22

I got a line! But I had one like this last cycle and then started bleeding the next day (my birthday Sad )

Hoping it'll show on a non-IC soon!
