Hello and welcome!

I kinda wanted to make my own thread as I've been itching to POAS at only 7dpo 😒 I know I know... ridiculous right?

So need you lovely ladies to join in and keep each other distracted, share your experience, have a giggle/cry together and most importantly have each others support during BFNs and BFPs.

Please feel free to jot down your cycle/dpo info and when your AF is due so we can all keep a track of where we are!

This is also a thread where you are free to post any thoughts, poems, pictures, recipes, dreams and aspirations, the good the bad and the ugly 😝

As always stay safe and baby dust to you all!

It's torture these tests showing faint lines then nothing days later. So sorry to those who have had some false hope with those 💕 it really makes me want to wait to test after AF. It's so hard to wait though

KatieFH · 19/06/2020 15:56

I’m a bit late to the party ladies but I did a test today and my eyes could be tricking me into seeing what I want to see but I thought I saw a mega faint line. Will test again over next couple days and hope I can see one clearer!
Wishing everyone luck with theirs!! X

@CaramelTart23 I'm sorry this month might not be your month. I reckon I'm probably out as I did 2 clear blues and got what I see as very faint lines (others aren't sure) but nothing on a IC. No AF yet though so I'm waiting to see what's happening! Hope you're okay lovely? Xx

MummaShu · 19/06/2020 15:34

Not my month either. BFN on a FRER (lovely faint grey evap line though Angry), AF due tomorrow. At least I get to celebrate my birthday with a cider though! I guess the cramps I've had the last four days are just my stomach hating me!

Best of luck to those left, and those with the BFNs... see you next month xx

GreysLove · 19/06/2020 14:19

@CaramelTart23 Sorry if this turns out not to be your month, it's so shit eh?

@hannah88j Sorry to you too, to feel so good then be let down it's such a rollercoaster.

I'm out this month AF turned up a day early - cheeky witch! I'm really disappointed and really pissed off at my body for giving me so many signs that are totally not normal for my cycle. I'm thinking that my body must still be adjusting post pill, and that my FRER must have been an evap line. I have given my OH all my tests and told him not to let me use them until I'm at least a day late. So i'll be moving to the July pact thread but not for another few weeks as it was becoming all consuming to be on here even just reading. While it's fabulous to have a group of like minded ladies going through the same thing I have been all over the place, not concentrating on work, exercise and healthy eating has slipped. All those things have made this BFN all the harder to take. So I have given myself an hour or so to feel shitty, then dusting myself off and have a BIG glass of wine tonight.

I'm so happy to all of you with BFP's and huge virtual hugs for all of you who's it's not your month, we will have our lines and babies one day :)

Thanks for being such a great group xxx

hannah88j · 19/06/2020 13:54

@bluebubbles12 Yep both with FMU. I honestly was not expecting to see a stark white negative test this morning 💔 gutted. I've since seen/read a few threads where people have had false positives recently with FRER's so I'm not buying them anymore. It's not worth the heartache. It's either that or a seriously early chemical, but I'll wait to see if AF arrives. I did think that 7dpo was ridiculously early to get a positive pregnancy test, so I'm hoping it was a false positive rather than a chemical. I'm due on 23rd June so should know more by then... see if AF shows! So gutted today though. It's so shit that you can go from being over the moon to devastated in 24 hours 😢 xx

bluebubbles12 · 19/06/2020 13:43

@hannah88j oh no, I'm so sorry you're being messed around! Your head must be all over the place. I wonder what could have caused that line yesterday? Did you test at the same time, both FMU?

@CaramelTart23 sorry if this is AF for you 😔 wishing you all the luck for next month, and thanks so much for setting this thread up. I've found it really valuable.

Mich2020 · 19/06/2020 13:11

I did this opk just about 15 mins ago. And the second line is quite dark.. I know people have a surge before af but I needed to pee on something else 🙈 still no sign of AF yet. Just want to know so I can't either begin a new cycle or obviously would love to have my bfp.xx

hannah88j · 19/06/2020 13:05

Bad day for me today. I think yesterday's test must've been a false positive because I took another FRER this morning and it was completely negative. I'm still only 8dpo so I'm holding out hope that it's not completely over for me this month. I just can't get over the line yesterday it was so pink and obviously there and today nothing!! Not even a squinter 😢💔 oh well... back to counting down the days. No more early testing for me I'll be waiting for AF to show her ugly face. xx

wenders4 · 19/06/2020 13:01

Sorry @CaramelTart23 I was following you from earlier in the thread and had my fingers crossed for you.
I'm still in no mans land (it feels like anyway) no AF and still negative test Hmm

CaramelTart23 · 19/06/2020 12:39

Hey Ladies... I've woken up with dark brown cm I think I'm out 😞 I really thought I was in for a chance this cycle. I guess it was not meant to be!

How are you ladies holding up today? X

wenders4 · 19/06/2020 12:07

@Mich2020 I know this doesn't help you (or us) but it's strangely reassuring knowing I'm not alone with this. It's so exhausting. I keep getting my hopes up and then squashed. I can't say I've changed anything apart from been more stressed with work, lockdown, childcare etc. But stress has never effected my periods before. Last month I thought it was just an odd one off longer cycle.

Mich2020 · 19/06/2020 11:59

@wenders4 I'm kind of in the same boat. Cycles usually are 29 days. Over the last few months they've varied so much it's weird. Today is cycle day 31 now that's definitely late and I have also had a bfn test. The only thing I have done differently this month is take agnus cactus from cd1 to ovulation day. I have sore boobs and lower cramps and pressure assuming my period is coming but this has now been for the last 3-4 days. Even dtd last night and this morning hoping that if af was coming it'll help bring it along. Nothing at all xx

wenders4 · 19/06/2020 11:20

I'd be grateful for thoughts, I'm confused and at a loss. My usual cycle is 26 days and has been last 3 months, but last month my cycle was 31 days and this month I'm currently on day 32 of my cycle. Based on my 26 day cycle AF was due 14 June. Negative frer. Based on a 31 day cycle AF was due yesterday. Took another frer this morning in case I got my fertile window wrong and ovulated late and still negative. I'm at a loss. My body / cycle has just gone out of sorts these last two months and I don't know why? Has anyone had this with differing cycle lengths?

Mich2020 · 19/06/2020 11:05

Even opened it up. Hoping I'd see something!! Nothing at all 😩

Mich2020 · 19/06/2020 10:53

Hey ladies. Period the latest is due today and nothing as of yet. Done this test with fmu and it's negative ☹️

Itisme90 · 19/06/2020 10:08

Sorry this isn’t your months hopefully next month will be different. I am due AF either tomorrow or Sunday no AF symptoms yet which isn’t like me so just got my fingers crossed if nothing for Monday I will test I only have 1 left so trying to hold off.

SpringDream · 19/06/2020 09:52

I'm out this month. AF was 1 day late so got my hopes up. Did a test this morning BFN and then AF arrived.

Boc86 · 19/06/2020 08:23

I’m out :( wiping brown now which I do the day before my period, my period is due tomorrow

Boc86 · 19/06/2020 08:13

Ahh ok thank you x

runnerttc · 19/06/2020 07:24

@Tonithetiger it takes a while to understand your body, turns out I ovulate CD18/19, took me ages to work it out as I was doing OPKS 10-16 and never getting a peak. I'd be do disheartened because I thought I wasn't ovulating. I'm sure next month will be your month xx

@bluebubbles12 I've been stressing all night and decided to change my early scan to 8 weeks. I figured I would rather the stress of a longer wait than having it at 6 and they can't see anything because its too early!

@Boc86 you need to be a member for a certain amount of time, think its 24 or 48 hours. Good luck with your test.

@CaramelTart23... how did you get on? Hope it went well!!

Hows everyone else doing today?

Are any BFP ladies graduating onto the Pregnancy forum? I've joined the February due date one but its so busy I can't keep up!

Boc86 · 19/06/2020 06:26

How do you add a picture please? I tested and the dye ran Confused

bananabread2000 · 19/06/2020 01:20

So AF turned up 4 days early :( I'm absolutely gutted, really thought this would be the one!

Congratulations to everyone who got their BFP so far! Maybe next month will be the one for me.....

LAG1986 · 18/06/2020 23:48

So I only have 2 full days left till i find out if af will arrive sunday or not. I have no af symptoms yet. But dont normally till shes actually here. How can you tell the differences when checking your cervix please? Confuses me. Lol. X

Bache · 18/06/2020 22:57

Hi everyone,

I Would love to join. I'm currently in my 2ww period and driving myself crazy, so would be great to have support from others in the same position, which we all are. This group is AMAZING! Loving the stories and how supportive everyone is of eachother.

Me and my husband are currently TTC and I am 10/11 DPO. I have been experiencing many symptoms, nausea, cramping, heartburn, bloating, shortness of breath, headaches, back ache, metallic taste in mouth, extreme hunger frequent urination and tiredness during my 2ww. I haven't experienced this all at once but over the course of this wait period. As a result of my symptoms I started testing, daily, from 8dpo, with first response and clear blue early detection but they have all come back negative.

I'm still prayerful that my BFP is coming but it's easy to get disheartened when you see so many negatives! Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations to all those with BFPs and Blessings and baby dust to all still waiting...🤗🙌🙏
