Anyone testing the weekend of 24/01?

Hi guys, I'm currently 7dpo and losing my mind 😂 I tested this morning like an idiot and of course it was a bfn. I have had a couple of symptoms, but honestly I could just be clutching at straws.
Ovia says AF is due this Saturday, I'm just looking for some pals maybe to see out the next few days?

Ooooh @Sparkle2020 post a pic I love a squinter! Definitely try a FRER. I got a squinter on an IC for my first pregnancy and then did an afternoon FRER and got a solid BFP!

Sparkle2020 · 22/01/2020 08:33

Hey, can I join please! Due af on Sunday. 9dpo today. This morning I got a real squinter on an ic but think it’s just me being hopeful. Cycle 16 of trying and will be our first baby. Only potential symptom I have is that I’ve had af type cramps since 2dpo that won’t go away so hoping that’s a good sign.

charlesthekudu · 22/01/2020 08:24

BFN at 9/10 DPO. MY previous BFP was at 11DPO but actually was 15 days from my first sign of a positive OPK. So I could still get lucky by the weekend if AF doesn't show !

SS123456 · 22/01/2020 08:24

Surely at least one of us will have some good news soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

GoldLeafTree · 22/01/2020 08:06

BFN at 10dpo this morning on a FRER and IC

BFN at 9dpo this morning for me

Canadianpancake · 22/01/2020 06:31

Hi, can I join you? I'm 12dpo, af due Saturday. I tested yesterday afternoon and has a vague line, but tested with a frer this morning and got bfn, so think yesterday's must have been an evap line. However, I had some spotting yesterday which is unheard of for me between af, and I feel sick sick sick. I'm going to try to wait until af is due now before testing again, (but I know I won't). I'm trying to have the attitude of what will be will be, but it just doesn't work like that does it!

FebMama2Be · 22/01/2020 04:33

@mumworkstudywine dont want to get your hopes up but that is how my test turned out, got darker over the next few days. Try testing again in morning with first urine. Good luck 🤞

Eatsleepbakerepeat · 21/01/2020 23:47

Hello!!! New to this
Due to do first test this weekend in fact due af tomorrow, first month trying so not expecting anything this month however I've been feeling ghastly
Feeling sick, tired, hot sweats on a night and feeling warmer in the day, cramps, constipation, headaches

Not sure if I'm looking too closely I couldnt wait and did a test yesterday and BFN so not holding out hope but not sure why I'm feeling the way i am if not?! The suspense Is killing me!

What do we think? Pics taken within the time limit, but I've had to go at it with the editor to show you guys what my squinters are looking at!

Anyone testing the weekend of 24/01?

It is my 3rd month TTC too! 😊. I have a 7 year old from a previous relationship and this will (hopefully!) be my first with my partner

CouscousEvaporator · 21/01/2020 18:23

Ha thanks! @mumworkstudywine! It’s from the My Dad Wrote a Porno podcast 😆

I would like to think a cold is a symptom but DH has had one for a while and I’ve finally succumbed 🙄 hopefully it won’t hinder my chances!!

How long have you all been trying? This is our 3rd month.

Welcome @couscousevaporator 😊 great name! I have heard previously that cold like symptoms are a sign of early pregnancy however considering the weather at this time of year I couldn't say for certain!

OP posts:
CouscousEvaporator · 21/01/2020 18:10

Hi can I join? I will be testing on Sunday or Monday at 11/12dpo.

Not really feeling any symptoms, think I’ve come down with a cold which is crap timing. If it gets nearer and no symptoms still I’ll try not to test at all, and wait for AF🙈

Good luck to you all!

The baby grow announcement idea is cute!

@dsttc123 fair play to you! When are you planning to test? DH tagged me in a picture on FB earlier, it said "Start the year off on a positive" with a picture of a woman with a pregnancy test and I was like hahahahahaimtryinghahahaha as I sit here with my bottle of folic acid staring at the veins on my boobs 🙃

OP posts:
dsttc123 · 21/01/2020 16:01

I haven’t actually tested yet so I suppose I must have some degree of “self control”. It’s only our second cycle, so I’m not expecting much to happen yet.
I just keep telling myself each day it’s only one less day to go until I can test.

Welcome @dsttc123 😊 don't worry, we're all impatient here! It's a good place to rant! Have you tested yet or do you have that illusive self control people speak of?

@laurajayne15 pretty on par with having a secret email chain with ones mother regarding baby names...🙄 @Charlesthekudu I'm with you there, I've been testing twice a day, once with FMU and then once with 2MU just in case the FMU got it wrong 🙃🙃🙃

OP posts:
dsttc123 · 21/01/2020 15:38

Hi, can I join.

AF is due on Friday but I had some spotting on 8/9DPO that I think may be implantation bleeding.

I’m just getting so impatient now!

bluemoon2468 · 21/01/2020 15:18

@charlesthekudu totally with you on hiding from DH 😆 last month I was hiding them right down in the bin underneath things so he wouldn't see I'd tested so early!

charlesthekudu · 21/01/2020 15:04

Why am i addicted to testing early. It's ridiculous how little self control Inhave in thenTWW.

I've actually been doing them in secret because DH would think I've lost the plot with my addiction to POAS multiple times a day...

dublino · 21/01/2020 15:02

@laurajayne15 that's taking it up a leval 🤣🤣

LauraJayne15 · 21/01/2020 14:59

@dublino and @mumworkstudywine I should have stuck to buying a single baby grow.
I swear I’m going a little bit potty during the TWW. It would be complete madness to bid on a bedside crib on eBay right? WTF is wrong with me Blush
