Hi who else is testing from the 19th? It's amazing how lonely ttc can be when you're trying to stay chill and calm with your partner ❤️

@Ktn35 I get strong plus with clear blue but with first response I’m getting faint lines . :( trying to upload a pic but it’s not allowing me

Ktn35 · 16/02/2020 13:24

@zaalfruit are you using different tests. With my first pregnancy I got negatives and faints with cheap tests when I got clear lines with frp or CB xxx

Ktn35 · 16/02/2020 13:22

@mamapixie do you think you could have ovulated early this month? Xx

Ktn35 · 16/02/2020 13:21

@mamapixie I'm sorry 😔 It's a horrible feeling 😔 I'm feeling quite periody today so I think I will be out this month too. It's due on Thursday xxxx

Zaalfruit · 16/02/2020 11:33

Hiya everyone , I tested positive last week and this morning the lines are faint :( I guess that mean a a big fat negative

MamaPixie · 16/02/2020 09:18

Well AF has come in full force 4 days early. Even if we had conceived I don't think there would've been time for implantation in a 10 day luteal phase. At first I was hoping that it was spotting but it's too heavy and too dark 😔

Good luck ladies - fingers crossed for a BFP for you! Looks like it's on to cycle 5 for me x

MamaPixie · 15/02/2020 07:58

@TFC90 that's really sweet 🥰 exactly what @Ktn35 says! No need to think it's a chemical - you got this!!

BFN for me again this morning, with each passing day you begin to feel more and more despairing. I'm convinced that there's something wrong with me 🤦🏽‍♀️

TFC90 · 14/02/2020 23:32

@Ktn35 I'm trying hard not to tell my hubby until I'm more sure and I've got a stronger line... Very difficult with it being Valentine's but I don't want to get his hopes up!

I've made a little neckerchief to put on our little puppy that says 'I'm going to be a big brother'. I'm going to test a few more times over the weekend and if it still looks promising I'll tell him Sunday....

He's getting the results of his fertility test on Monday so it will be a relief for him to know earlier 😂

Ktn35 · 14/02/2020 22:43

@TFC90 no reason why it should be a chemical! Eeek! It's so hard not to worry - with my first pregnancy I spent the first 20 weeks in a state of anxiety despite there being no reason to be and not normally being an anxious person. I always assumed the worse. I guess it's self-protection thing! If in lucky enough to concieve again i'm going to try and be more positive 😩🤣

TFC90 · 14/02/2020 19:37

@Ktn35 Thank you!!! It was a FRER, I did that one this morning and another one this afternoon which came up with a stronger line. Just done an IC when I got home and it's still a squinter....

Just praying it's not a chemical pregnancy 😬

Ktn35 · 14/02/2020 19:21

@TFC90 congratulations!!!

I caved and for BFN today but I'm only 7DPO and it was a cheapie so no surprise 🤣

Morganmom · 14/02/2020 17:56

@TFC90 congratulations!!!!

TFC90 · 14/02/2020 11:03

@MamaPixie I'm trying not to get too excited in case it's a chemical result or I MC early or something. So many of my friends have!

Noooo much classier than that! John Lewis!! Im working here today for a valentines event 🤣 I've an even better photo....

Everything crossed for you!!

MamaPixie · 14/02/2020 10:36

Also @TFC90 are you in a supermarket toilet? 😂🙈 this is brilliant! Please keep that photo haha!

MamaPixie · 14/02/2020 10:34

@TFC90 I'm an idiot - cycle 3 - forget that 😂

I've got sore swollen boobs which came on about 4dpo which is annoying as I'm sure I'm just putting weight on and it's an unfortunate coincidence. The weird mini spot on 7dpo and sharp pains in my side (possible weird infection maybe) My partner is more optimistic than I am, he says I'm more sensitive than usual (I think that's his way of justifying me getting cross with him last night for almost scratching my car 😂)

MamaPixie · 14/02/2020 10:29

@TFC90 I'm so ridiculously happy for you!! This is wonderful news!! And on Valentine's Day too 🥰 congratulations lovely lady!!! Had you been trying for long?

MamaPixie · 14/02/2020 10:28

@TFC90 OMG!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍

TFC90 · 14/02/2020 10:02

I caved and went and spent £10 on a FRER before work, even though Amazon are delivering some later today...

And look!!!!!!

@MamaPixie I took one, it was a stark BFN!

I don't really understand, I was due AF Monday but that's only based on the last two natural cycles and had it come Monday it would have made my luteus phase crazy short. Today I think I'm 14 dpo. My temp is still high and I had what could be an implantation dip exactly the same time as I got spotting earlier in the week. I feel like everything is pointing to pregnancy except the tests... Which at 14dpo should be reading positive!!

Tackled the wine thing, I told him it was just had for fertility and we're doing so well not drinking at the moment. Said we could have a gin and tonic but I'm going to make sure I make them and hold the gin for me!

You're only 9dpo so there's still lots of hope! Everything crossed for you! Have you had any symptoms?

MamaPixie · 14/02/2020 08:20

@TFC90 maybe take another one this morning to see if it's any darker? It's hard to tell in the photo but I'm sure it's clearer in person 🙂 I don't know, it's either going to be make an excuse or come clean? Or hopefully this morning makes it more concrete!

I had this daft notion of getting a stick and putting it in my partner's V day card this morning.
BFN on a FR!! I'm 9dpo so was hoping for the faintest of lines if I'd implanted 2 days ago. Grumpy now ☹️

TFC90 · 13/02/2020 19:48

Oh here's the pic

Testing 19/01 onwards
TFC90 · 13/02/2020 19:47

@MamaPixie @Morganmom So I might've just taken another test... I know it's meant to be first thing in the morning but still no AF and they are ICs...

Call me crazy but I think I might've seen a very very faint line. But maybe I was looking at it far too long. And by faint I mean I had to stare at it.... So you don't get excited here's a photo. Totally didn't show up in it!

Gah!!!! I told my hubby when I thought my period started so he's expecting to have a bottle of wine for valentine's tomorrow but I obviously don't want to... But equally I've got this big announcement planned and don't want to tell him until I've several definite positives!

MamaPixie · 13/02/2020 16:15

@Morganmom oooh that sounds tasty 😊 food really makes me happy. That's a big step joining WW, you're doing all the right things! I keep on promising myself that I'll join the gym when it gets a bit warmer 🙈

Morganmom · 13/02/2020 13:20

@MamaPixie I was just contemplating having another piece of toast! I do butter and jelly😂. So fat! I have joined weight watchers! Not doing great...

Morganmom · 13/02/2020 13:16

Ahh! @TFC90 I’m still hoping for you !!!
