Hey everyone,

Anyone else just started ovulation or about to start in the next week. Let's start a chat and keep ourselves busy as we head through ovulation and the dreaded 2WW.

Little about me this is my 2 cycle at TTC Baby no.1 I'm about to start ovulation on fri or sat, so going to make the most of this week. I've ordered some IC ovulation sticks hopefully will arrive in next couple days and I will give them a try out. What is everyone else doing to prepare themselves for ovulation???

@lastbany @beckyBP I'm got my fingers crossed for you girls. No AF is the best sign. Hopefully your BFP will appear over the weekend .

@Gab101 stay calm I'm sure everything is okay. I've read that your hcg level double every 48/72 hours so maybe your levels just aren't up enough and I think you may have diluted your urine with water 💧wait it out a couple days let your levels go up a bit and make sure you hold on for about 4+ hours if you can. I just did my last two tests I have in the house my digital and and ic the ic is still very faint but digital says pregnant 🤰

@Shinea thanks so much for your advice, sometimes you need to be reminded to calm down! Appreciated

Shinea · 24/07/2020 14:42

@Gab101 everyone's body is unique, dont panic stay calm. Wait for couple of days and retest.
Stay positive

Gab101 · 24/07/2020 14:30

@Shinea

Thing is when I got my bloods taken on Wednesday I was level 8ml HCG so surely I'd be 25 by now 2 days later. Think that's why I've been extra paranoid because I know that's slow but some do start very low

Shinea · 24/07/2020 14:25

@Gab101 FRER can detect 6.5 miu/ul where digital one needs 25 miu/ul.
Dont panic give 2 days of rest for yourself and test on monday.
I know it's easier said than done. Maybe you can recheck with FRER or CB again to be assured and to be calm.

Digital DEFINITELY aren’t as sensitive.

@Gab101 try not to get to worked up maybe digital are not sensitive enough. Give it a rest a couple days if AF doesn't show over the weekend test on Monday xx

@beckyBP I have another digital but it's 9:55pm I've drank tons of water I don't wanna waste another one. AF is due tomorrow so thought it would defo sag positive. I took it apart and there is a faint line but it did say no. Really hoping it's a hiccup 😭 DP said he's going to hide all my tests because I got so worked up!

beckyBP · 24/07/2020 12:47

Oh no @Gab101 try not to panic. Have you got any more tests? Xxx

Gab101 · 24/07/2020 12:35

I posted this on the other thread but wanna post it here too --- I'm so disheartened... just took a FR digital and it said not pregnant. AF due tomorrow - had just drank tons of water but still.... so sad to see, is this normal? 😭
