@purplefig nope, they were regular right until the first month we were TTC 😂 now they're all over the place!! I'll attach a pic below of them 😩

@sunshine1987 I'll put a pic below and try and explain it the best I can (sorry if this doesn't help!!) the first pic is literally a few seconds after dipping it - the normal ones are usually a really deep purple for a couple of minutes whereas this is a really watery pink straightaway. The second one is maybe a minute later and the control line is as faint as the test line usually is! Hope that helps x

@FivexFive ooo good luck!! FX xxx

FivexFive · 21/11/2018 18:04

@Delilah7, that's fantastic news!! Glad you're feeling more positive :)

I've decided I'm testing in the morning (day before af is due and day before I go away for a few days) I'd rather know than go on holiday and have it on my mind... xx

Delilah7 · 21/11/2018 17:57

@SenoraSurf pee on a stick girl!!!!! FRER X

sunshine1987 · 21/11/2018 17:53

@cupcakesandglitter how did you know it was a crappy batch? I’ve got loads of these 🙈

sunshine1987 · 21/11/2018 17:51

@senorasurf I see it!!! Fingers crossed x

purplefig · 21/11/2018 17:48

@cupcakesandglitter hmmm that is annoying. Could be that you're going to have a longer cycle? Are your cycles usually pretty regular?

DayDreamer1707 · 21/11/2018 17:47

@senoraSurf I definitely see a faint line 🤞🏼

@purplefig yeah I have, but not much 😩 so I had some faint ones but they were a shitty batch from amazon so they've all been coming up like the first pic. Took one about an hour ago and it's the second picture shown (I took it with a test from my old batch).. problem is, because this batch is so crap I don't actually know what my normal one looks like when I'm not ovulating so I can't compare whether they've been getting darker or not. Sorry if that doesn't make sense, it's really is a pain!! X

@SenoraSurf I really do see that!

purplefig · 21/11/2018 17:07

@SenoraSurf I can see a faint line. If I were you I'd wait until day of missed period and test again and the result should be much clearer.

SenoraSurf · 21/11/2018 16:58

So... 11dpo. Thoughts? I don't want to buy an frer, they don't seem worth their money. Any body got any opinions of the internet cheapies? Second one that looks the same now x

Thanks guys!!! Xxx

SenoraSurf · 21/11/2018 16:52

Congrats @Delilah7 xxx

purplefig · 21/11/2018 16:38

@cupcakesandglitter are you getting any colour on the OPK sticks? Could be that it doesn't show up as strongly for you. Sorry though, it is a right PITA this TTC malarkey! I know some people hate OPKs and prefer to go by CM. It's all such a head fuck.

@Delilah7 congrats sweet, try not to worry too much now!! ❤️ xx

Oh @ValidUser that's great news, I bet you're relieved xxx

CD26 and still no positive OPK 😩 I've called the doctors and my blood test results are in, I'm gonna get a call back tomorrow morning. The receptionist said they all came back fine but I'm not sure she knew what she was looking for... here's to another night of worrying 😂😂 x

@sunshine1987 my guess is I have a bit of endometrium that overgrows near the entrance to the tube. Apparently it's common but tends to reblock.

I'm no gynae, but apparently it's nothing unusual.

sunshine1987 · 21/11/2018 15:58

@validuser did they say why? Or do you know why? Least it gives you a positive outcome for now and can focus on that then when/if the time comes and you want more you know what to do to start the process again x

Delilah7 · 21/11/2018 15:34

@sunshine1987 literally so happy!!! Xx

ValidUser · 21/11/2018 15:31

@sunshine1987 apparently it's likely to get gunked up again in about 6 months, so will probably get a pre-emptive HSG when/if I want more babies.

sunshine1987 · 21/11/2018 15:29

@validuser sounds really positive, must be relieved to have the answers, now with the tube unblocked fingers crossed it will all be quick and you’ll have your positive in no time x

sunshine1987 · 21/11/2018 15:27

@delilah7 yay! See nothing to worry about last week lovey 💜

SullyWifey · 21/11/2018 15:21

@ValidUser very deep foof 😂 that made me giggle! Oh hun I'm glad it wasn't awfully painful then!!

@purplefig feel free to moan about your cramps anytime babe, if anyone can understand it's me 😂 my pain is quite unreal, makes me feel dizzy/sick, wakes me up in the night etc. But it's all relative to what your used to really! Xx

purplefig · 21/11/2018 15:05

@ValidUser yes! In some cases it will have all been a huge waste of time and effort (not to mention disappointment). Anyway (!!) glad your tube has been sorted, that's awesome progress.
