@Sjp17 and @Sunshinexx95 my AF is also due on the 4th. I will be away then so will either test on the 2nd before I go or the 6th when I get back. If I don’t feel any symptoms then I’m going to wait until the 6th. I’m usually pretty regular so hopefully it won’t be a test wasted if I’m late.

@Sjp17
Hii! My af is due on the 4th of Jan
I want to test on Sunday if I can hold
I tested yesterday at 7dpo and guess what bfn
I have had no symptoms.
Today I am a bit unusually hungry and I have a weird breast feeling. I have slight cramps but I might imagine stuff because last month I imagined so much and I was not pregnant. Anyways I think I'm 8dpo today and on Sunday I will be 10dpo.

@AliSxo how r u feeling today? Any unusual symptoms?

Sjp17 · 27/12/2019 10:41

@Crazymummyto3 cycle buddies! When are you going to test? I’m going to try my darndest to wait until af due day

Crazymummyto3 · 27/12/2019 10:33

Sorry to hear that @CooperLooper. Fingers crossed for next month for you.

Welcome @Sjp17, I'm on day 26 of a 33 day cycle too

Carrotgirl87 · 27/12/2019 10:31

Thank you all, I'm so sceptical since it's most likely too early and the reviews on these tests are abysmal! Will get a frer tonight and see what that says..

Good luck to all of you, I hope you all get the news you have been waiting for xx

Sjp17 · 27/12/2019 10:29

Hi! Can I join! I had positive clear blue digital opk 20/21st so 6 dpo, had an increase in CM again yesterday so I did opk again and it was positive again... wtaf! Took a frer and it was bfn.
My af is due 4th jan, I’m on CD 26/33.
Crampy today and yesterday and going absolutely bananas.
Also this is our 2nd month TTC baby #2.
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 For us all!

LockThatFridge · 27/12/2019 08:57

Congratulations @SunnyFlover. That’s wonderful news. And wow @Carrotgirl87 that’s amazing. There’s definitely a line so fingers crossed for a sticky one.
Sorry about af turning up @CooperLooper. Hopefully next month will be your month.
I’m 8dpo today and no symptoms whatsoever. I’m exhausted but I think that’s just a result of hectic days dashing around after family. I need to stop squeezing my boobs in the hope that they feel sore. Someone’s going to notice soon Xmas Grin

CooperLooper · 27/12/2019 08:40

I'm out I'm afraid, AF had got me really early. Good luck everyone else, I hope I won't be seeing you on next months board :) x

Crazymummyto3 · 27/12/2019 07:05

Congratulations @SunnyFlover , lovely news ☺️

I try to stay off these posts as much as I can until a few days into my tww, otherwise I would drive myself crazy!! I think I'm currently 8dpo, but I had positive opk for 3 days and my cycles have varied from 27 to 33 days to not entirely sure 🤷‍♀️ I have loads of IC tests and the temptation to do one is immense, but I'm trying so hard not to give in until New Year's Eve at least 😬

I've felt nauseous on and of the past couple of days, but not sure if I'm reading too much into it as I work with children and there are all sorts of bugs going around at the moment. On Christmas Day I put my son's new VR headset on and had to take it off after a couple of minutes as it was making me feel so queasy, but I bet that's not uncommon! TMI but I've also noticed that around my nipples has gone darker and that happened with my previous pregnancies early on, but I'm trying not to read too much into it!

This is our first month of properly ttc and I've already convinced myself that it hasn't happened this month, but I suppose part of that is to try and stop me feeling too down if it hasn't happened. Arrrgh, I hate all of this symptom spotting!!

SunnyFlover · 27/12/2019 05:52

@AliSxo @sunshinexx95 thank you ladies, still early, I will breath much easier when I get past my af time without it showing up. If all good- exciting times start!

@carrotgirl87 OMG... 10 years 😖 but you may have your Christmas miracle now as I see both faint lines on your tests! Congratulations!

AliSxo · 27/12/2019 00:29

Hey @CooperLooper sorry to hear that keep us updated, could it be implantation? Xx

CooperLooper · 26/12/2019 22:45

Just started spotting now at 8DPO. If AF arrives fully tomorrow then it's only been a 9 day luteal phase for me 😔 better than the 4 day LP last time but still really short. Damn ☹️

Laurenson88 · 26/12/2019 22:07

Hey everyone, I’m 11 days po... I did a test today and was negative Sad I’ve been getting cramps on and off for a couple of days in lower stomach and back ... and really really sensitive and sore boobs! Shall I assume the test is right!? It was a first response one

Carrotgirl87 · 26/12/2019 22:01

Honestly, I have no idea Blush I don't track or anything, gave up even thinking about it 5 years ago... i guess I'm on CD21 ish? But about 4 days ago had a really light pink bleed (sorry Blush) I googled and it says implantation bleeding is that colour sometimes, so I just bought a test in the way home from work and I can see lines so I'm a bit lost!

AliSxo · 26/12/2019 21:56

@Carrotgirl87 that looks positive to me it's a faint line but it's there!! How many DPO are you? Xx

Sunshinexx95 · 26/12/2019 21:52

@Carrotgirl87
Hiii, ur welcome to join us!❤️
I really think I can see a faint line :/ .. I don't know about blue dyes I never test with them but hopefully it is a positive. When r u planing to test again?

Carrotgirl87 · 26/12/2019 21:41

Sorry to gatecrash all, I don't want my own post I'm trying to be discreet but need your eyes. Background, Iv been unable to conceive for ten years, assumed infertile, but havent done anything about it doctors wise, just accepted it is what it is... anyway, I had some unusual bleeding this week and 111 questions are possibility of pregnancy so I took some tests and... well I know evap lines are a massive thing on blue dye so I want your opinions please? Lines are super faint, almost invisible.. can you tell me what you think? I saw lines within 5 mins, but the pic is an hour on just for full disclosure.... thank you all xx

@SunnyFlover
Wow what a lovely line I wish you a very safe pregnancy. And now u have to take care of urself 💚💚
I started ttc in August as well but I never taken contraceptives at all. We only used barrier and have beEn married for almost 2 years. in August we decided we will ttc. I have been monitoring my ovulation. I have all kind of apps. But nothing. Hopefully soon 🙏

@AliSxo ohh honey I know the feeling. But we still have time. Let's decide to test on Sunday. I think I will try my best. I'm going to be busy tomorrow anyways so I hope I will not test.
😭😭 but I always cave last minute.

CooperLooper · 26/12/2019 21:06

@AliSxo gosh that's the first time I've ever seen an indent line before, I always wondered what on earth people were talking about. How frustrating!

AliSxo · 26/12/2019 20:56

Well I caved lol!! What a horrible indent line... I took the test apart I've NEVER done that as the indent was so visible and I wanted a closer look!! 7DPO this test was an evening test so I'm not losing hope just yet x

@Sunshinexx95 stopped birth control pills in August, first positively "caught " ovulation happened in October, so I would say December is the 4th cycle we are trying, but only 3rd in properly monitored way.

@bethj123 none whatsoever. Last 3 cycles I imagined all sorts of things... I though my breasts were sore, I though my head was spinning, I swear to got I tasted metal in my mouth... All were imagination symptoms! ( aka too much of YouTube). All that info made me very upset. I watched and read way to much- it stressed me out. I stopped in the end of November, after deciding that I know enough about how to conceive and what happens afterwards. My partner was laughing that I could be a gynaecologist soon if I continue my research in such depth! ( I was studying ultrasound pictures and what each thing mean, all hormones and how they work etc... you get the picture...). Since end of November- not even looked at this app ( came back couple of days ago when I had my line). Now, I have a line, but I genuinely feel nothing 😅 A bit of a dull cramping every so often in the lower abdomen, but very very mild.
Here's my little line on the 9DPO.

Sunshinexx95 · 26/12/2019 19:58

@SunnyFlover congratulations 🙏 what a lovely Christmas and new year 💚
How long have u been ttc? :)

bethj123 · 26/12/2019 19:56

@SunnyFlover congratulations! What are you're symptoms? X
