My hubby says to use it myself but I think I'll give it to him for xmas.

@mellymoo86 theres nothing wrong with seeking advice. I'll be doing the same if I get to 6 months and nothing has happened. Are you home now?

My day has just got better. I have just won a triple super car driving experience at goodwood motor circuit. Just by doing a little quiz in work.

@mellymoo86 that's a lovely ending to their journey. You are right though people should be more open and not think of it as a taboo subject. I have been chatting to my colleague about it this morning and saying to her how its driving me mad!! She was the one who suggested the preseed. It seemed to work for her.

@Skygirl1983 hopefully it'll be over for you soon 🤗 happy thoughts now lovely. Just spoke to my colleague about it, his wife is 5 months pregnant. They've tried for two years and went down the IVF path. Everyone's story is entirely different and people should speak more openly about it. Thankful for sites like this.

@CiaraJ01 it really is a minefield. I feel like shit today!! Feel a little nauseous, boobs are killing and my tummy feels like AF is going to appear and it's not going to be pretty!! I hate this whole ttc process. I wish I could just be more oblivious to it all!

OP posts:
CiaraJ01 · 21/11/2019 09:04

I think I'm giving up on testing and relying on old AF from now on 😂😂 Its such a minefield!!
@mrsio and @sh84 fingers crossed the positive lines stick later!! could do with some BFPs! 🤞🤞

mrsio · 21/11/2019 08:49

I've seen lots of threads on a few different apps in the last month where people are getting quite clear positives on other tests like ICs or clear blue and then nothing on FRER. I've also seen stuff online about the amazon ones being different to the ones you can buy in the shops. I've got 2 more coming today but after that I think I might avoid x

sh84 · 21/11/2019 08:11

I’m dying 😂 been testing with FRER every morning, todays “line” seemed a bit more prominent, still needed a torch to see it clearly, I’ve never had an evap line before. Think I’m just seeing things tbh, AF due tomorrow, no AF symptoms, no BFP symptoms, 1 FRER left, will do it tomorrow then just wait it out. Think I should have a clear BFP by now if I am 😔. Hope everyone else is ok

mrsio · 21/11/2019 08:01

I even dipped one of the IC in water to see if it was just an evap and there was defo a difference between that and the one I thought I saw a faint line on

Yeah check out the link. It's very interesting and actually favours testing in the evening.

@mellymoo86 safe flight. And dont worry I'll be there in next months chat obsessing again! Lol

mrsio · 21/11/2019 07:59

CiaraJ01 sorry about AF getting you. I did an IC at about 6pm. When I thought I saw a faint line I did FRER and thought I saw another faint line. I spent all evening on picsart inverting the pictures 🙈 Then at about 9pm I did another IC and again thought I saw another line. Only an IC this morning. I'll obvs be testing again later 😂 it's gonna be a looooong day! still no hint of either pregnancy or AF🤷‍♀️

mellymoo86 · 21/11/2019 07:58

@Skygirl1983 even with a positive you better stay on this group 🙁

CiaraJ01 · 21/11/2019 07:54

Thanks ladies!!
Safe flight @mellymoo86! My OH flies this evening and I cant bloody wait. I never normally miss him but I think all this makes you realise we need our sperm donors a little more 😂

@mrsio what tests were they? DOD you see a post before I think @Skygirl1983 put up on FMU vs afternoon testing? Maybe try again later!

mellymoo86 · 21/11/2019 07:51

@CiaraJ01 glad it turned up, at least it puts your mind at rest now! 😊 @Skygirl1983 not long til you test now!!!! Excited for you!!!

I've got spotting today, seems like AF might arrive tomorrow cycle day 26. My cycles are between 26-28. I don't care as long as I'm home, flying in a few hours woooooo🎉🎉🎉🎉

MrsC89 · 21/11/2019 07:50

@Skygirl1983 I'm 7dpo, well I think I am. I had real trouble with opks this month, so didnt get a clear rise. I'm going to try and hold out until Sunday, I know I would probably get a bfn right now. I shall join you in the crazy symptom spotting!

mrsio · 21/11/2019 07:50

Morning ladies. I thought I had VERY faint lines on 3 tests last night. Now nothing again this morning. So who the hell knows! 12dpo today x

@CiaraJ01 sorry about AF but that's definitely good news that you get to give it good go in December :)

CiaraJ01 · 21/11/2019 07:43

Good morning! Fingers crossed for you @MrsC89 and @Skygirl1983!!

@MrsC89 how many dpo are you? I'm 9dpo and cant help jumping on every single symptom now! I'm going to test tomorrow evening but have already prepared myself for the BFN

OP posts:
MrsC89 · 21/11/2019 07:34

Morning! Ended up going to bed at 7:30 last night and didnt want my dinner ( very unlike me)
This morning feeling back to normal, noticed my left boob was really sore when I got out of the shower, also still got the milky discharge here too!

Skygirl1983 · 21/11/2019 07:19

Good morning ladies. How is everyone? I have had a good amount of milky discharge already this morning! Really sore boobies last night too. If I get a BFN I'll be shocked and this is some horrible AF symptoms. Especially for a whole week before!

OP posts:
CiaraJ01 · 20/11/2019 21:36

Hmm. I've taken some ibu this evening cause I was sick of analysing about them 😂😂 So now I duno if they've gone or masked.
I've 1 FRER left but I'm not bothered trying tonight. If AF still isnt here in the morning I might take it... Thank you 💕

I'll look up on the vitamins too!

@CiaraJ01 if you have a look at Luisa ZIssmans baby blog she recommends some vitamins which helped her conceive.

I had really bad AF like cramps at 14DPO which is the only reason I took another test, I was convinced it was imminent and weirdly thought I'd rather see a negative test first than AF catching me off guard at some point in the day! I'm 4+4 today, still v early but I still have AF-like cramps on and off. I was worried at first (still am a bit tbh) but apparently it's quite common. On a pregnancy thread now and loads of people are having the same thing. It's all the stretching. Don't lose hope yet!
