FRER on 8DPO like an idiot!

I tested today (at only 8DPO) like an idiot because the TWW is driving me mad and seems to be dragging! I almost definitely knew it was going to be a BPN but did it anyway... whyyy!! Anyone else in the same boat? I ovulated on 31st Dec (confirmed by opk and Flo app) and have 1 more test at home which I'm trying to save until Saturday/Sunday.

I've altered the lighting so you can see it on a photo. What do you think?

oh yes there's def a test line there!! nice one, and GL for tomorrow morning! x

LuckyWright · 17/01/2020 12:58

Well I did one this morning @kell2126 - a clear blue one - and I sort of wee'd a bit on the screen. So I saturated it a little which was very frustrating as I wanted a clear BFP. In my defence it was 6am and I was quite sleepy. This is positive yeah?
So tomorrow I am going to do another - maybe with the use of a cup and dipping it in!

Keep us posted please @LuckyWright – I love me a good line progression to follow :)

@Kendrick12 ugh how frustrating for you :( Keeping everything crossed! Hang in there! xxx

LuckyWright · 16/01/2020 18:11

@Kendrick12 TTC is just crazy isn't it! Comes with so many emotions. Not wanting AF, then wanting AF. Wanting to do a pregnancy test then not wanting to see another one!! It's a journey all right! Sending you positive thoughts. Everything you wish for will happen x x

LuckyWright · 16/01/2020 17:27

Sorry to hear that @kell2126 ! Next month is your month!
Thank you! I'm still a bit of denial to be honest. I want to believe it but am anxious at the same time!! Thank you for your support. I might do another tomorrow morning - will try n hold off till Saturday x

Kendrick12 · 16/01/2020 17:23

Still no news from me! I'm so done with testing I actually couldn't bare testing again today and seeing another negative. I just really want my AF to come now! I'm starting to worry that there is something wrong with my body now. Xxx

kell2126 · 16/01/2020 16:11

Yayyyy huge congrats @LuckyWright! How lovely to coincide with your sister! Flowers

AF arrived here today so onto another cycle for me.

How are you doing @Kendrick12? x

LuckyWright · 16/01/2020 07:49

Thank you @mimmi91 ... I'm not yet quite allowing myself to believe it! This would be my first pregnancy so it's all a bit daunting! But ridiculously exciting too. My sister just told me she was 5 weeks pregnant last Friday and I'd love for us to have our babies close. The cheapie had a sensitivity of '20'. I am going to use a clear blue early one on Saturday morning which has a sensitivity of '10' so if I am pregnant that should definitely show on that test!
Fingers crossed for you all as always x

mimmi91 · 16/01/2020 06:45

@LuckyWright that's a clear positive!!! Congratulations!!!

@Kendrick12 what did your test look like this morning??

LuckyWright · 16/01/2020 06:43

I tested yesterday early evening and then again this morning using cheapies. I'm now on day 31. My cycles do differ month to month. I am not sure exactly when I ovulated as I just have the flo and Ovia app.

What do you all think?
The top one is yesterday evening.
The bottom one is this morning FMU.
Good luck @kell2126 aswell!
Xx

kell2126 · 15/01/2020 22:27

@Kendrick12 my sister has 4 kids and she told me that every time she was pg she didn't get even a faint line (inc. on FRER) till about 4 days past her AF due date, so on that basis we could still be in. FXd xx

Kendrick12 · 15/01/2020 19:48

@kell2126 I woke up feeling sick this AM but not sure if that is my mind playing tricks on me! I had really strong cramps last Thursday so 6 days ago and loads of CM like an unusual amount it was really strange but I would have thought a test would be positive by now if it was implantation! I've done another test tonight and still negative!! I just want AF to arrive now and move on to the next month! How's everyone else getting on?? Xxx

kell2126 · 15/01/2020 18:59

@Kendrick12 that is a clear positive! I don't understand how you can have that one day and a bfn the next? I've had evaps but they're nowhere near as clear as that. How confusing!! Are you noticing any symptoms?

I feel you re willing AF to come – so ready to move onto new cycle and to have some time off from the waiting and wondering...

kell2126 · 15/01/2020 18:55

Hi @LuckyWright glad I'm not the only one! I'm on CD33 – on average my cycles are 29 days – longest ever was 30 days). Have had brown spotting since Saturday and very strong cramps last night and today but so far, no AF.

Are you having any AF/pg symptoms? Let me know how you get on tomorrow morning – I'll be testing too – FX for us both!

Kendrick12 · 15/01/2020 15:11

I'm on cycle day 35 now. Still no AF a line yesterday but the test was left for an hour so I'm guessing evap line and no line since! Still no sign of AF this is very odd for me as I am now 16 dpo so should definitely be showing on a test if I were! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm so confused now and willing AF to show to stop the torment!! Below is test from yesterday! Xx

Yes I am! I though I was due on yesterday according to FLO... but no sign. I'm now on cycle day 30.
I have 24, 28, 40, 42 day cycles so it's so difficult to know when to test or if you're testing early. Hate having irregular cycles!

I don't use OPK's so don't really know when I ovulated. I'm guessing around 31st Dec - 5th Jan by my CM. Just keeping everything crossed! Going to do a cheap test tomorrow.

kell2126 · 15/01/2020 08:46

Hi ladies, anyone else still waiting for the next cycle to start? I'm on 16DPO and nothing!

mimmi91 · 13/01/2020 11:08

@Lizziejayne13 Thanks!!
I think you still have a chance if you only implanted on dpo10!
I'm pretty sure I implanted on dpo7/8, and didn't get my BFP until dpo12 :)

Lizziejayne13 · 13/01/2020 09:24

Congratulations @mimmi91 and @Bubble29

Im 12dpo today and lots of BFN on IC strips - i had tiny bit of brown spotting on Saturday so i had my hopes up that it could be implantation maybe and normal cm since (sorry tmi!) im wondering if im still in with a chance if implantation was at 10dpo then maybe hcg tests too soon- or am i just clutching at straws .... Sad ....

Trying to keep my hopes up until AF arrives ...

kell2126 · 13/01/2020 08:26

huge congrats @Bubble29 and @mimmi91 – what lovely lines!

My AF due tomorrow and all the signs say she's coming so I know I'm out. Best of luck to everyone still waiting to know x

mrsrichy · 12/01/2020 18:23

@bubble29 and @mimmi91 huge congratulations to you both! Just catching up on this thread and so nice to see!
I've done quite a few tests now and sadly all BFNs. Period isnt due til wednesday/thursday so trying not to lose all hope yet.
So pleased for you both :)
