Decided I'm not testing today, cba for the BFN!! AF due Saturday according to Flo app so might just see what happens being as it's already Tuesday and I think it'll arrive more like Thursday/Friday as I normally have a 25 day cycle xxx

Raizelrea · 04/11/2019 17:36

@AliSxo 11 DPO is still early, don't think you'd necessarily have to have a line yet. I'm still hopeful for you - especially with the heightened sense of smell you'd been noticing!

AliSxo · 04/11/2019 14:28

It's such a pain how af symptoms are so similar to early pregnancy. I actually googled both the other day and it was the same list!! We'll see what happens I'll keep you posted but feel like I'd have a line by now if I was pregnant!! I'm on a 25/28 day cycle but think it might be slightly longer this month after my early m/c xxx

Raizelrea · 04/11/2019 13:03

I'd say you're not out till AF - don't think the timing of your BFP is necessarily linked to the viability of the pregnancy so try not to compare it to last month.

My cycle length depends on the ovary haha - seem to alternate between 28 days on one ovary and 31 on the other (so I guess I'm fairly regular but each side has a different cycle length, funnily enough).

Annoyingly I'm feeling really nauseous, nearly had to dash for the loos in the office. Guess my hormones are having a party.

AliSxo · 04/11/2019 12:52

Hey @Raizelrea a few days before AF is due for me, bfn's so far not even a hint of a tiny line!! Currently 11DPO - last month I got my BFP at 14DPO but that didn't end well so who knows, maybe I'm out this month, it's got me down today. At least it's a new cycle now and you'll be ovulating soon 🌸 how long are your cycles? Xx

Raizelrea · 04/11/2019 11:41

Hi ladies, AF has arrived for me so on to the next. Did you test again today @AliSxo ? You seemed to have promising symptoms so fingers crossed!

AliSxo · 03/11/2019 09:15

Hey, bfn for me today! That's ok, I can test again tomorrow and we'll just have to wait and see xx I used a FRER xx

Blossomingflower94 · 02/11/2019 21:04

Everything crossed for you both in the morning. 💙

My sense of smell has increased 😂 boyfriend was downstairs eating crisps and I could smell them. Hoping for a BFP when I test Sunday!! Boobs are still stingy. Xx

AliSxo · 01/11/2019 13:09

It's still so early @Raizelrea so maybe test again tomorrow and if it's not FMU then that explains it too!! Hoping for a BFP this month but if it's not meant to be that's fine xx

Raizelrea · 01/11/2019 12:32

Hi ladies, BFN for me though to be perfectly honest it wasn't exactly FMU since I woke up in the middle of the night and had to wee so really it had only been 3 hours since the last time I'd been to the loo. Anyhow I'll assume negative for now and retest at the weekend. Definitely was more nauseous last cycle when I had the faint line though.

@AliSxo I'm the same, crazy amounts of CM this month but not sure if that means anything.

@Blossomingflower94 How are you feeling? Think I read somewhere on hear ginger biscuits are meant to help with nausea (can't be the judge of that as I hate ginger haha)

AliSxo · 01/11/2019 11:05

Hey @Raizelrea a lot of people say when they stop trying it happens so fingers crossed for you!! Did you test today?

@Blossomingflower94 really itchy boobs today and had a bit more CM the last 2 days, fingers crossed, I'm testing on Sunday with a FRER XX

Blossomingflower94 · 01/11/2019 10:15

Any update ladies?? :) x

Raizelrea · 31/10/2019 17:30

Thanks @AliSxo - I agree 10 DPO is still early days, if I wasn't going out I'd be waiting till at least Sunday. I'm in a weird frame of mind where a part of me thinks there's no chance this month and a part believes I must be because I've convinced myself of a weird reincarnation theory 😆 (the former part thinks the latter is absurd!). Don't think I'll be crazy upset if it's negative though, I kind of pushed TTC out of my mind for the moment till January maybe so the current plan is to just go with the flow till then.

Yes cramps could be a good sign since it's way too early for you for it to be PMS I reckon! Fingers crossed 😊

AliSxo · 31/10/2019 15:52

@Raizelrea best of luck for tomorrow but 10dpo is early so it's not over until AF arrives xxxx I've had cramps today so maybe that's a good sign xx

Raizelrea · 31/10/2019 13:21

@AliSxo Ah ok so you'll be 10 DPO when you test like me tomorrow 😊 I don't really have hugely high expectations this month but we're meant to go out for a few drinks after work tomorrow and going to a housewarming party on Saturday so just want to check before drinking!

AliSxo · 30/10/2019 22:22

Hey @Raizelrea I hope it's your month!! I'm 6dpo today and going to test Sunday with a FRER so fingers crossed!! No symptoms yet really just tired and hot but may just be a cold coming on, my boobs only get sore a few days before AF is due so fine for now xxx

Raizelrea · 30/10/2019 13:15

Hi both! Sorry I've been MIA I've been so distracted this month. I'm not too bad though just been told my department is under review - needless to say October has not been my month 😄

I'm 8 DPO I think, no real symptoms - no nausea at all which I did have last cycle. I do have loads of white creamy CM but then I feel like I've just had loads more CM this cycle than usual im general. I'll probably test on Friday and/or Saturday. Haven't really thought about TTC much this month (which could be a good thing I suppose).

@Blossomingflower94 Sorry you're feeling sick but you're right at this stage it must be quite reassuring since there's not much else to go on yet other than the symptoms. Yeah can imagine it being tricky at work with everyone sort of knowing because of your reassignment, at least you don't have to make up excuses though!

@AliSxo Sounds like you've been busy, hope it's your month. Not long till Monday! Let me know how you get on with the boots tests - I think I still have FRER at home so will probably use that.

Blossomingflower94 · 30/10/2019 06:22

Yes I did. ☺️

OP posts:
AliSxo · 29/10/2019 20:09

I'll get some thanks for the tip! Did you use one of these at 10DPO? Xx

Blossomingflower94 · 29/10/2019 20:02

Yes that's what I'm thinking ☺️

It's a multi pack of 5 strip tests. They are so sensitive though!! I got two lines with the test line darker than the control on 12DPO after getting my first + at 10DPO.

OP posts:
AliSxo · 29/10/2019 19:31

@Blossomingflower94 just remember the hcg is rising and that's such a positive!!! Which boots test shall I get? I'll deffo get some :) xx

Blossomingflower94 · 29/10/2019 17:51

Everything crossed for you then!! Let us know on Monday. Have you managed to get any boots tests?

I'm ok. Morning sickness in full swing but it's currently bearable.

OP posts:
AliSxo · 29/10/2019 11:32

Hey @Blossomingflower94 good thanks!! Currently 4/5 DPO - think I'll test on Monday as I'll be 10/11DPO - I was going to try and hold for AF to arrive but we'll see!! How are you? Xx how's things @Raizelrea xxx
