Just wondering if there's anybody else out there that's due their AF around the same time as me. I definitely ovulated last Tuesday as I've been using the Clearblue ovulation digital test, & I also felt pretty sharp pain coming from my left ovary that day. I'm now 5DPO & yesterday & today I've been getting a dull achiness on & off on my left side. If there is anyone that's around the same time as me, I just thought we could keep each other updated on our symptoms☺️ AF not due for another 10 days so I hope it's not coming early 🤞🏻

@lag1986 hi! Im a Dec '86 baby so pretty much last in the club lol!! A frer is a brand of pregnancy tests....held in pretty high esteem as the best but has a fsit bit of shade thrown on them recently for not bsing very reliable... Lots of negative reviews on their website! I but poundland ovulation sticks (5=£1) and their pregnancy tests are 3=£1 👌
I begrudge paying the price of some of the tests to literally pee on it then throw it away 🙄

motherofdinosau · 23/04/2020 22:15

Yay @babytobe this is amazing news!!
Our first BFP in our chat!!!
Thinking lots of sticky thoughts and can't wait for you to have a wee in the morning!!!

Bic501 · 23/04/2020 21:39

@Babytobe I defo see a line!! Can't wait to see ur fmu test! Looking good tho 😁 x

Infused · 23/04/2020 21:30

Congratulations Baby! Hope there's lots more BFP to come on this thread Smile

Babytobe · 23/04/2020 21:26

@tryintobe agree, theres something v addictive about peeing on sticks!

Babytobe · 23/04/2020 21:24

Thank you ladies!! I honestly thought i was going a tad mad! So does anyone know what the actual difference is between a faint bfp line and an evap line? I assume its the colour. Ill defo be doing another tomorrow morn on fmu and i have a spare CB digi hidden away from last year in the hope some day would have the opportunity to use it again. Just hope its in date!!

Thanks so much for your help, im very grateful. Hubbie looked at the uploaded copy and said the real one is much clearer.

Im still in shock!! And there I was expecting to be pouring myself a nice glass of wine tomorrow night ☺ Will upload a pic tmro morns frer. And lots of baby dust to all you lovely ladies 🎉. IF (and im still doubtful) IF I really am preggo, I would love to have some company to share the journey with. Anyone have any updates?? Xxx

Trying2b · 23/04/2020 21:10

@LAG1986 I swear by the FRER but I normally try a few (several hundred) one step cheapies and get faint shadows at around 7-8dpo. I think I got a few today, but could be my eyes playing tricks. I'm 9DPO tomorrow so will be testing again. I never used to test this early and couldn't believe it when I got faint positives before. I'm hooked now, wish I wasn't!

ChillOutChick · 23/04/2020 21:03

Me too! 🤩

Ashworth90 · 23/04/2020 20:59

Even though it is a little blurry, I can definitely see a line! Yay! Congratulations 🎉 how exciting for you!

Babytobe · 23/04/2020 20:51

All opinions welcomed. My phone camera had a hard time trying to focus on the line its that faint

Babytobe · 23/04/2020 19:48

@chilloutchick that would be great to get some other opinions! Can someone tell me how to upload a pic?

Popcat120 · 23/04/2020 19:44

Is 9dpo too early on a frer?

ChillOutChick · 23/04/2020 19:41

@Babytobe. Congratulations!!!! Wonderful news!!

Do you want to upload the picture of the test and we can all have a squint at it if you're feeling a bit unsure? Otherwise best option is to test again tmrw morning.

ChillOutChick · 23/04/2020 19:36

@Chlo2701 I don't know exactly as I'm not tracking but I think I ovulated around day 14/15. My cycle is currently about 30 days so I think I'm about 11 DPO.

I've had loads of abdominal twinges in the past week but I'm pretty sure I had them last month too so I feel
doubtful that I'm pregnant this month.

AutumnJ0y · 23/04/2020 19:34

@Chlo2701 I hope the tiredness is a sign too. It's so weird, but since lockdown I have not been able to fall asleep until after 2am or so. I just wasn't feeling tired so had trouble falling sleep. This week has been completely different, I feel exhausted and am in bed by 7pm. I don't know if it's the lack of sleep catching up on me or if it's a symptom.

Babytobe · 23/04/2020 19:33

Hi ladies. Heeeelllllp!! A little bit in shock here and trying to stay calm/ cautiously optimistic! Did another frer today (I knew I couldnt hold out until tomorrow as first planned,.despite BFN's at 8DPO & 9DPO) ....and got what looks very much like a BFP Star 👌🥳🙉 Am just so so afraid that it is an evaporation line. Ive never seen one before so not sure if this now is it. The line I have is most definately there, doesnt require too much squinting, looks lightly coloured pink but very very faint. How do you tell the difference this early on? Im currently only 12DPO. Sadly had 2 x miscarriages last year at 11.2 weeks and 6 weeks. Always got strong BFPs for those. Will test again in the morn and keeping everything crossed this is infact my BFP and that this little one sticks around xxxxx

LAG1986 · 23/04/2020 18:53

@BrokenNlost welcome. Yes I have been having weird pain in my lower back/left hip today. Feeling a bit sicky. Had cramp in tummy a few days ago. It's hard to know if these are symptoms or just hope. Xx
