Anyone else in the dreaded tww?
I'm currently 2DPO. Would be nice to chat to others in the same waiting game to keep us sane!

I caved and did a FRER obviously a BFN not sure why I did it to myself 😂 I have felt so weird this week but think it's where I am deffo just over thinking every single last feeling 🥴 Will just wait for AF now...

Happy Friday all 🥳

Thank you @KitQ, needed the pep talk, I will try and steer clear of that aisle all together!!

KitQ · 20/11/2020 13:37

@madeinthe80z don’t do it! Just wait til Monday and see how you get on. You can do it. You have some at home if you feel the need to test over the weekend but don’t waste your money. You can get til Monday, it’s not far.

madeinthe80z · 20/11/2020 13:32

I'm going to Tesco later on this afternoon. Please can somebody talk me out of buying a box of FRERs?? I know it will be 10 quid wasted and I have other tests here and AF is due Monday anyway... urgh. Obviously my subconscious is telling me I am getting BFNs because of the brand and not because I'm actually not pregnant!!
Help me!

madeinthe80z · 20/11/2020 12:42

@mommyofone2019 who knows 🤷‍♀️ maybe a glimmer of hope though!
After I had my daughter and my periods came back after 3 months, (even though I was EBF!!) I was regular straight away, every 28 days, always a Thursday. Then a few months ago, AF arrived on the Monday 3 days early out of the blue. I always spot for 2-3 days before proper AF. Ever since then, I have been regular again, but always a Monday now! Our bodies are sometimes just a bit weird I think!!

KitQ · 20/11/2020 12:15

I’ve got 5 tests in my house and I think tomorrow morning I’ll be tempted to test but I think I need to wait til Sunday!

Just had a wee and something on the toilet paper again. But didn't have anything this morning when I wiped 🤷🏻‍♀️
Really hoping it's no my af starting.
But this never happens with af. I don't get this. It's just bam af is here in full flow.

@Luna20 I think we have found we are a group of very impatient testers!! I have tested twice today. Goodness knows why, I wish I had self control!!
Best of luck with the FRER 🤞🤞

madeinthe80z · 20/11/2020 11:31

@Furbabymum15 me too!!
When I get chance later today or tomorrow, I am going to try and remember all the 'symptoms' I have had these past 2 weeks and write them down in order for future reference when we start TTC so I don't have to go through this again!!

Luna20 · 20/11/2020 11:30

I think so too but wasn't sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me! Definitely going to test with a frer tomorrow morning I think, if I can wait. Need to try not get over excited yet 🙈

Furbabymum15 · 20/11/2020 10:29

@mommyofone2019 it's annoying cos I've been feeling twinges everyday for past week at least x

@Highfalutinlootin I did think that by any chance it was implantation yesterday it would take at least 24 hours, probably 48 hours (read hcg doubles every 48 hours) to enable a bfp.
But there was no telling my brain and self control that and I still tested this morning! I think I will wait until Sunday or Monday now. Monday being when af is due x

Morning ladies! AF arrived for me last night, so onto the next one for me! Cycles are sorting themselves out after being on the pill for around 7 years. That one was 25 days, I should now have a better prediction for this cycle. Hoping to see some BFPs for all of you over the next week! My AF always arrives in the evening, does anyone else's always arrive at the same time of day?

@Luna20 Welcome! Don't need line eyes for that one! I can see it very clearly! Defo test with a FRER, but it looks like a congratulations is in order!

Luna20 · 20/11/2020 08:03

Hi everyone! I've just found this thread. I'm new to all thus. Been trying 3 months which I know isn't long. I'm about 14 dpo but my cycles can usually go up to 32+ days so a bit confusing. I did a test the day before yesterday (too early, I know) and got a BFN but this morning I swear I can see a very very very faint line I haven't seen before. I've tried to capture it but its not really showing up on camera, maybe my mind is playing tricks and I'm just seeing what I want to see. I'm trying to keep my emotions in check and not sure what to do, leave it a few days and retest? AF should be due around the weekend or maybe Monday depending on what she feels like doing this month!

The dreaded TWW!
Furbabymum15 · 20/11/2020 08:00

@mommyofone2019 I am same dpo as you...just done a frer and its BFN so I reckon I'm out 😕 see if AF shows on Monday x

madeinthe80z · 20/11/2020 07:53

@mommyofone2019 do you find these babyplan ones like super stark white?!! I find with FRERs you can do a bit of hopeful gazing but these ones are really very clear!! Good I suppose 😕

Highfalutinlootin · 20/11/2020 07:47

@mommyofone2019 But if your bleed yesterday was implantation, it will take 2-3 days to build up enough hGc to get a positive test so I'd say you're definitely not out yet.

Well I tested not long ago with fmu. And shock it's a bfn. Pretty sure I'm out now too. Today I'm 11dpo. Af due Monday so I'll just see if it turns up or not now 🤷🏻‍♀️

I've never experienced it myself @mommyofone2019 but you never know, it comes in all colours from what I've heard!

BFN for me @2am so I'm 99.9% sure that's me out.

Highfalutinlootin · 20/11/2020 05:49

@mommyofone2019 That sounds potentially promising!

Sorry ladies, I know I keep referring everything to back when I had my daughter but, back then I had an implantation bleed on 5dpo and it was pink blood (sorry tmi) and only happened once when I wiped after having a wee.
Today I'm 10DPO and just had a wee, and when I wiped there was like a tinge of something on the toilet paper, more brown looking. Could this be implantation? Has anyone had anything similar?

@KitQ haha it's the law to do that as soon as you get in the house 😂
I've got like a stabbing pain in my left nipple 🤷🏻‍♀️
