TTC for 1 month with 1st.
It's so tempting to do a test! I have heavy achy boobs and cramps. AF due in 11 days Grin

Is anyone feeling any symptoms?🤣🙈

bez91 · 07/10/2020 21:11

@Jellytot91 I can see something, maybe try again at the weekend!

I'm now 6/7dpo, had some CM today consistent with AF being on the way so we shall see, just 8 more days to go until I test Grin

Rococo90 · 07/10/2020 18:49

@Char899 @Braxos yeah I've bought the IC myself lol just don't want to go recommending them when I'm not 100% sure what people choose 😊 thanks ladies

Char899 · 07/10/2020 18:46

Yep what @Braxos said lol

Char899 · 07/10/2020 18:45

@Jellytot91 @Rococo90 not sure if you’ve looked and sorry if you’ve already said but look on amazon for the strip tests. You can get like 20 pink dye strip tests for the price of 1 clear blue

Braxos · 07/10/2020 18:44

Yep ICs ('internet cheapies' - you can pick lile 30 for up £3 but they are 10miu so very sensitive - they are the ones they use in hospitals) and FRERs are your besties really!

Char899 · 07/10/2020 18:43

@Jellytot91 @Rococo90 go for pink dye tests rather than blue. Blue tests are notorious for giving false hope as the dye can leak and cause evaporation lines! Especially if left for a while. Never happened to me personally but I know it has to many others. I think that’s why so many people like FRER

Ah I see! I'm new to this too so I totally understand! AF due in 7 days so will get a frer for the weekend!

Rococo90 · 07/10/2020 18:36

I'm not entirely sure which ones are best as I'm new to this lol just seen so many people on here saying how awful they are and I usually see them resorting back to cheap internet/£shop ones before a FRER x

Thanks @Rococo90 !

What tests would you recommend? I find the clear blue ones so frustrating!

Braxos · 07/10/2020 18:26

Mine are 6 & 7 and i can assure you.. it does not get easier 😂😂🙏🙏

Buttt goodluck to you anyway haha!

Mommabear20 · 07/10/2020 18:24

@Braxos thank you! DD is only 3 months old as we want them as close in age as possible, we know the first few years will be tough with 2 under 2, but hoping that it'll be easier in the long run!

Braxos · 07/10/2020 18:13

@DressingGownofDoom everything crossed this one is your sticky one!

@Jellytot91 i can deffo see 'something' but like @Rococo90 said those tests can be a bit dodge, so maybe get a frer and test again in a few days!

@Mommabear20 everyone is welcome here. Good luck with ttc no2! Hoping you are just as lucky as last time! How old is your little one?

Im feeling soo hormonal today and i dont reckon thats a good sign. Think maybe its PMS creeping up. I dunno, i just dont feel pregnant? But only 7 dpo so who knows!

Char899 · 07/10/2020 17:17

@Jellytot91 I see a line! Fx crossed for you 🤞🏼

Rococo90 · 07/10/2020 17:02

@jellytot91 I definitely see a faint blue line but hear those tests are notorious for evap lines. I'd say stay patient and give it a couple of days and test again but I'd be a hypocrite coz I will absolutely test tomorrow lol

Mommabear20 · 07/10/2020 16:56

Hello ladies

How is everyone feeling today?
I still have cramping, weird pulling feeling this morning in my lower abdomen and sore boobs.

It's 8dpo for me today and I caved! OH kept talking about having kids and I POAS.
Could this be a faint line?

4dpo who's with me?!

Thanks @Jaysdream7. I've had 4 miscarriages in the last 3 years since having DS and these tests are just cheap ones so I'm not jumping for joy just yet! Will hang on a while before getting carried away Grin

Jaysdream7 · 07/10/2020 08:39

I can def see it !! Congrats xxxx

DressingGownofDoom · 07/10/2020 08:34

Morning all! Hope everyone is having big fat symptoms this morning! 10 dpo here and I think my shadow has turned into a squinter!

Zero symptoms over here!! I’ve tested like a crazy person this month worked out I’m spending about £100 a month on tests. Hate myself for it. Wish I could just wait until when I am supposed to test. Xx

xoJellyBean · 07/10/2020 08:21

I took my temp this morning and my app shifted by ovulation day?😭😱 so confused

Braxos · 07/10/2020 07:54

Im having super vivid dreams too, got a stuffy nose & an ulcer too, but i think im just looking for things now! Need to try & forget about it for today!

Rococo90 · 07/10/2020 06:58

@isla4 I don't know how you have the restraint! Lol
@xoJellyBean yeah well Flo says the 28th for me too but another app says 29th so I'm not entirely sure as it's my first month.
Had crazy dreams last night that I was pregnant girls 😅 so vivid that I actually thought I was until I woke up properly lol was really nauseous when I got up, boobs still agony, cramp and another couple of spots so done another bfn test even though I said I'd wait. I'm so impatient! Flo is telling me all my symptoms are normal before af coming, I seriously hope it doesn't 😔
