Hi
Just wondering if there is anyone else who is now waiting the two weeks before testing. I had positive ovulation test on 27th this month so just a waiting game now :( only managed to dtd on 25th and 27th so hoping that will have kept me covered

I'm 10 DPO. Tested yest knowing it's too early - why do I do it to myself Grin

Trying to hold off until the weekend to retest

Farhana170 · 08/01/2019 17:16

Whoooooo! Omg I actually gasped the first time in my life! I took a digital pregnancy test and read the words 'pregnant'
So much better then reading lines. Highly recommend!

@fortheloveofscience I’m 10 days PO so I think it may be too early? Last month I did about 20 tests as I was doing them too early and daily. Must be a little less crazy this month!! I’ve had pink spotting but more days than what you’d expect for implantation bleeding so I’m not holding my breath xx

Fortheloveofscience · 08/01/2019 16:24

@GemmaJen 11DPO Smile. Had a BFN yesterday and the squintiest of squinters on an IC this morning. Feeling a bit freaked out I was convinced this wasn’t going to be the month.

@Lola87 when are you going to test? Do you know how many DPO you are?

@Arewethereyet19 baby dust and fingers crossed for your next cycle.

Arewethereyet19 · 08/01/2019 16:16

Thanks @jazzyjellybeans I’m ok about it tbh. Only my first proper cycle trying so not too disappointed at least. On to the next one haha

Lola87 · 08/01/2019 15:48

I’m 1 day late 😬😬😬

LillianFullStop · 08/01/2019 15:25

Jumping on this 2WW thread! I think I’m on 4dpo based on dates rather than temping or tests... loooong way to go until POAS

GemmaJen · 08/01/2019 14:54

@Fortheloveofscience a lovely line! How many dpo are you now? 🎉😊

Fortheloveofscience · 08/01/2019 14:48

MyBread totally impressed if you can hold off til Sunday! I’d totally be testing thurs/fri, but I’m a POAS addict.

Fortheloveofscience · 08/01/2019 14:46

Think I trust this one more than my ICs - not even FMU

MyBreadIsEggy · 08/01/2019 13:26

Received loud and clear.
I’ll wait.
We are off on holiday very early Sunday morning, so if my period doesn’t arrive on Saturday, then I’ll pack a few tests and do them while I’m away

jazzyjellybeans · 08/01/2019 13:02

@Arewethereyet19 I'm so sorry this isn't your month! 

@Fortheloveofscience congratulations! Great news!

@MyBreadIsEggy try and hold off another day.... if you can! I know it's hard

GemmaJen · 08/01/2019 12:23

@Lisaawilson congratulations!

donut93 · 08/01/2019 11:43

@MyBreadIsEggy I'm the same! period due Saturday too, I'm gonna hold out and wait!SmileShock

MyBreadIsEggy · 08/01/2019 11:32

So I’m 10dpo, AF is due on Saturday. I’ve got a couple of dip tests - should I test or not?! Blush
Someone make the decision for me!!!! Blush

Pinkelephant12 · 08/01/2019 11:28

I’m 5DPO I think. I don’t track just go by what the apps tell me. I’ve felt really nauseous since Saturday and now have really dull achy cramping feeling. Now thinking did I ovulate early and AF is coming a week earlier than expected. I really really hope not as she’s not due until 18th and my last cycles have been like clockwork

Arewethereyet19 · 08/01/2019 10:30

AF has just arrived for me a day early.

Good luck for everyone still waiting Smile

Fortheloveofscience · 08/01/2019 09:42

I got a faint BFP this morning Shock. Not trusting it too much though because it was after 30 mins not 5.

BillyAndTheSillies · 07/01/2019 22:39

That's great @Lisaawilson congratulations!!!

Lisaawilson · 07/01/2019 22:10

So did this when I got home I cannot believe it!! Although I do feel so sick 🙈🙈 xx

I’m on the dreaded TWW 😩😩 this is month 6 of trying and it is actual torture!! I had a chemical pregnancy last month so I feel like I’m all over the place with dates! Had a positive ovulation on the 28th and was due my period on Saturday. I’ve had 4-5 days of pink spotting which if it was implantation should only last 2-3 days right??! I’m so impatient!!!
Fingers crossed we all have 2019 babies!!! Xx

Em39ma · 07/01/2019 21:40

I think I’m out. Getting really bad cramps. Just had give in and take one of strong painkillers. I have really bad AF.

BackAwayFatty · 07/01/2019 21:38

Congratulations!

How are you all calculating your DPO? I got a positive on my OPK strip on 28th & trying to work out when's best to test.

Had a MMC last month & I got a BFP from that pregnancy around ten days after but that was based on my 12 week scan date rather than OPK strips.

Farhana170 · 07/01/2019 21:11

Actually saw a very faint yesterday! But thought it was just my eyes

Farhana170 · 07/01/2019 21:10

Thank you everyoneGrin
@lisaawilson I tested yesterday (10dpo) too and bfn. I wasn't going to test again until seeing your bfp lol. Is it your first too? Fingers crossed for sticky beans for all of us and baby dust to all!
