Hey girls... thought I'd make a new post I'm struggling to find new ones 😂 I'm 28 nearly 29 and my other half is also the same age! I'm currently on my period and this is the month we have decided to start trying! I'm so excited but also do not want to get my Hope's up as I know it can be a very long journey to get that BFP! Anyone else trying this month? I'm looking to get ovulation sticks to increase my chances xxx

I know what you mean. It's disheartening seeing those BFN. I don't think I can wait a while week, will probably test on Sunday if it doesn't arrive.

Sitchervice · 20/02/2020 21:41

I had it once before when I went to weeks without AF (this was last year) did about 5 tests all neg went to doctor turned out I had a massive UTI and that's why no AF. 😣

Sitchervice · 20/02/2020 21:39

@Mc3209 I'm not sure yet. I might wait to see if I go a whole week without AF. Trying to stay positive

Mc3209 · 20/02/2020 19:49

@primrose2020 fingers crossed it will turn in the next few days.

Mc3209 · 20/02/2020 19:48

@Sitchervice I don't think symptoms are very reliable things to go by. When are you going to test? I will wait a few more days and if AF doesn't show then will test again.

Elley2912 · 20/02/2020 18:12

@primrose2020 I was holding mine up to the light and everything haha.

Looks like we're all going into next month together!

primrose2020 · 20/02/2020 17:42

Just joined the BFN hype, knew it wouldn't be BFP but couldn't help myself. Looked at it in every kind of light to to try see a smidgen of a line... white as white can be.

I've watched so many videos on YouTube of getting BFP at like 8-9 dpo 😫 I agree I'm going to wait for AF now and save my other test! 10 quid for two I was like ah my fiver gone to waste 😂 xxx

@Elley2912 sorry to hear about your BFN. It's too early.
Why do we do this to ourselves?!

Mc3209 · 20/02/2020 15:59

@abby25 you are still very early on. You are not out until AF arrives!

Elley2912 · 20/02/2020 15:57

Aww @abby25 I'm sorry. I caved too and got a BFN as well. I've decided I'm not going to buy any more tests until I'm actually late or I'm going to go bankrupt!

Ughmaybenot · 20/02/2020 15:07

Ah sorry you didn’t get your positive! Fingers crossed for next time!

I’ve finally stopped bleeding so can actually set to with trying now!

pineapple2 · 20/02/2020 15:02

Awww sorry..it's so hard all this trying. I'm not testing again now till af is late. I know I'm out this month too. Don't know if I can try again.

Sitchervice · 20/02/2020 13:25

Aww I'm sorry :( maybe next time.

Hi

This is my 3rd month trying. I'm two days late according to my calenda. I don't want to test. I've done a few quizes and they all say unlikely as I have No symptoms other than a few cramps! Loosing will to keep trying 😒

Mc3209 · 20/02/2020 12:10

Due AF today, no AF yet..

This whole stress of TTC is probably knocking my cycle off track!

@pineapple2i know if I brought any I would end up doing them all on the same day then become obsessed 🤣 I dont think I'm even going to be disappointed Saturday I just know it's going to be negative :( dint know how people manage trying so long only one cycle and I've had enough lol xxz

pineapple2 · 20/02/2020 00:31

I bought a pack of 3 tests for 79p 😂😂😂😂
Probably naff but it's cured my urge to test lol
