Anyone else testing next week?

AF is due on the 12th for me so not too long to wait to find out. I have irregular cycles though so it can sometimes be hard to track.

Is anyone else testing next week and like to join in with a chat for support? (And madly symptom spot 🤣)

Hi all - jumping on this one if I can! I'm a newbie and this is first try - AF due on 17th so was going to wait and see what happens then ...

I'm 12dpo but only according to app (didn't do any other tests) - I use the Period Diary one, anyone know if it's any good with being accurate with timings?!

Boobs feel sore and heavy but may just be looking for something ...

For sure a line! Fab news keep us updated x

Daisy8008 · 10/12/2019 14:25

@Pawsin i really need to order some of the cheap strips to test because the main thing putting me off testing every day is the cost! I'll see if the supermarket has some cheap first response ones (I live abroad and the pharmacies are super expensive for things like this)

Beth804 · 10/12/2019 14:15

@Daisy8008 @Pawsin You are doing very well! I would definitely have tested before 11dpo! Well done! 😂

@Daisy8008 I'm considering whether to go and get a test after work or be patient 🤣 trying to not get my hopes up but it's so hard not to isn't it !!

@Mooey89 let's hope so! I'm 11DPO today and I'm the most impatient person ever so I bet I'll test every day this week 🙈.

Good luck everyone!

Daisy8008 · 10/12/2019 13:57

@Beth804 thank you!! 💕

b0nnieN · 10/12/2019 13:22

@Waiting1987 I'm 11dpo today but I took a first response test yesterday at 10dpo and it was a clear BFN.. I had another test spare and just couldn't wait until Friday/Saturday xx

Waiting1987 · 10/12/2019 13:17

Congratulations @b0nnieN . How many dpo are you?

Beth804 · 10/12/2019 13:11

@b0nnieN Ooh That is a clear line! Congratulations!!! 🥳

b0nnieN · 10/12/2019 13:06

I couldn't wait until Friday to poas again after a BFN yesterday .. I think I see a faint line on a first response... Grin

Anyone else testing next week?
K8113 · 10/12/2019 12:58

@Daisy8008 same and I have that feeling in my stomach that my AF is on route (which is so annoying) but had it since last night and no blood which is weird as normally I do get it straight away if I have this feeling (kinda like cramps but not really) anyways caved this lunchtime and bought a test it was a BFN (shock) haha soooo now I'm in a bad mood, going to wait until Friday now as no point putting myself through this everyday (I clearly cave too easily haha)

Daisy8008 · 10/12/2019 12:47

@b0nnieN I've not had any spotting or cramping yet :(

@K8113 yep testing Friday!

It's so hard not to test every day isn't it?!

I don't really have any symptoms today except a strong desire to cry and heavy boobs

Peanutty86 · 10/12/2019 10:25

@b0nnieN I had so much cramping in my first pregnancy that I couldn't believe anything would be able to survive in my uterus.

Beth804 · 10/12/2019 10:17

@Daisy8008 I'm only 6dpo, it's dragging soooo much! My boobs are killing too though!

b0nnieN · 10/12/2019 10:12

Oooh I'm due AF on Saturday but I'm feeling very impatient so will probably test a few times this week. BFN on yesterday's test! I was spotting yesterday and feeling a sharp cramp on my left side of my pelvis. Is this normal? Or has anyone experienced that type of cramping?

Peanutty86 · 10/12/2019 09:59

Can I join in please? Due on the 20th and not much hope as didn't get well placed hearts in....

K8113 · 10/12/2019 09:51

@Daisy8008 my boobs are the same, literally feel like they could be Santa's sacks atm! Xmas ShockArghhhhh the suspense is killing me and working from home too does not help, so tempted to just rest today (must resist)

Are you going to test Friday?

Daisy8008 · 10/12/2019 07:22

@Beth804 how did you get on??

Daisy8008 · 10/12/2019 06:59

I caved last night and tested (bought a double pack and saw the second one as a wildcard!) I'm 10DPO today. AF due on Saturday. Surprise surprise it was a BFN.

Does anyone check the height of their cervix? Is this accurate?

Boobs are getting heavier to the point I'm now throwing oil on them incase they stretch. Very teary too but that might just be because I'm convincing myself that I am pregnant when I could just very easily be focusing on the wrong 'symptoms'.

Sounds like a Friday test party is planned Star

Blondeandbroody · 09/12/2019 23:19

I’m due either 16th or maybe 18th! I’ll probably test on 17th, if I can wait that long.

I’m not sure when I ovulated.

Last two days I’ve had spotting like a lighter brownish colour.

Have had cramping the last few days but stopped today. I could’ve sworn I felt a bit queasy this morning too but I am not confident that was real lol.

This is my first cycle off the pill so I can’t really trust anything so seeing what happens. I had semi regular periods on the pill (not withdrawal or anything) and stopped pill the first day it started 18th November so I feel I have an okay awareness but I could still be all over the place.

Fingers crossed!!
