@Dex1521 eeekkk have fun 🥳 that cat is such a peeve 🙃🤣 jk

@Bells20 it's so true 🤣 I can't stop thinking about the tests in my bag 😂😂

@Klprr93 loving the GPs response 🤣🤣 oh well I'm keeping positive for you if you want to stay a little tentative 🙌🏼

PowerOfFlowers · 18/11/2020 16:30

Thats lovely news @Klprr93 ☺️ Keep on testing every other day and hope it contiunes 🤞🏻

Cd10 and just done my daily POAS and I'm 0.14 -low. Full of energy today as expected for cd10! Done a 45min hiit this morning, went for a walk at lunchtime 💪🏼
Haha @Dex1521 - can't get away from the cat!! 🤣🤣 Mine's sat on my desk right now just looking at me 😀

Klprr93 · 18/11/2020 15:43

I'm in complete shock... 4 years clomid to max dose.. No ovulation, Ivf twice to viable eggs, low reserves for my age, 10k donor egg cycle and then this. I still think it might be a false positive because I had one not pregnant digital lol I know it's stupid. I phone gp and fertility clinic.. She said "you should not of been having sex" please ill do what I want

Bells20 · 18/11/2020 15:42

@Dex1521 that's interesting that you say that, I know it sounds mad but it hadn't occurred to me to think about what my cycles were like before. I used to have fairly short cycles pre-pill of 26 days, I've just looked at what happened last month and it was exactly 26 days between coming off the pill and withdrawal bleed! Maybe just coincidence!

Dex1521 · 18/11/2020 15:35

@Bells20 yeah I’ve done that too! Counted first day no pill as CD1 meaning today would be CD 22 and in two weeks time CD 35 and I think I do have longer cycles than 28days so it sort of works out 😂

Bells20 · 18/11/2020 15:29

@Dex1521 I was in that position last month. I ended up counting CD1 as the first day with no pill but it's not exactly accurate. Sounds like everything's going well though, @GreenApplesYo got her BFP straight from the pill so it can be done!

@DrS44 Next thread title 'POAS anon: Willpower of a moth'

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 15:13

@Klprr93 This is the best thing I’ve seen all day. Seriously how amazing❤️ Gave me goosebumps after what you’ve been through. Sending you all the luck in the world🥰 Xx

Dex1521 · 18/11/2020 15:01

@positivitytree2020 sounds silly but I’m not sure what CD as I’ve not had a period of withdrawal bleed since stopping the pill three weeks ago I just decided to start OPKs yesterday as I’d had EWCM and what I think is ovulation symptoms so it seems if ovulating but haven’t had a period before it which I read can happen to some people.

@DrS44 just changed the bedding this morning so they’ve been christened this afternoon😂 with the door firmly shut when we opened it the cat was there though 🙈

Just had a cup of tea so going to try hold off going to the toilet until about 5pm and then test again with an OPK

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 14:58

@Bells20 yeah I'm afraid I'll be like that but I also hate waste and those FRERs ain't cheap 🤣 I'm gonna try so hard not to 😂 willpower of a moth though 😂 xxx

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 14:57

@AMS19 🤣 yeah ok I'll get a couple of weekends being festive and then I'll test 🤣 xxx

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 14:56

@PowerOfFlowers eeekkkk oh keep us posted I'm excited for you!!! Xx

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 14:55

@Klprr93 sorry I'm gonna have to get excited for you 🥳🥳🥳

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 14:55

@May94 I think we will need to take up a hobby or something to distract ourselves from POAS 😂😂 xxx

Klprr93 · 18/11/2020 14:37

OK so I waited two hours and Did the other digital. What the hell

Hi @Klprr93 - they both look positive to me! Do you know what dpo are you? I know you said you aren't sure if you ovulated. Really hope its good news for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻
I started testing at 2dpo last cycle @DrS44 🤣
I'll wait this time round until the day I'm meant to get AF though... (famous last words!). I had ALL the symptoms last TWW. Nausea, sore boobs.
Cd10 over here and will be doing my daily POAS in an hour or so 😄

Klprr93 · 18/11/2020 14:04

Well the line appeared once all the pink had stopped being all smudgy the line on the first picture it was still drying and second dry. Not sure what to do. If I can and get a first response and it's negative It will break me. I have had sleepless nights over this donor egg cycle ( im so so so grateful to the donor) but its not the route anyone plans for. The Ivf clinic told me it was my only option. I have had panics I will not be a 'real' mom and now this... Someone watching down on me seeing what I can cope with 😂.

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 13:58

@Klprr93 OMG I mean it's looking positive gal 🥰👏🏻👏🏻 eeeekkkkk!

Did that line appear in the time frame too? Xx

AMS19 · 18/11/2020 13:57

@DrS44 I got a very BFN on 9DPO with a FRER. So I wouldnt test as early as me! I took that as a green light to drink 2 bottles of red wine the night before Lockdown 2. Got my BFP 3 days later 😬

@Klprr93 I know you're trying not to get your hopes up too much which seems sensible as it sounds like you've had lots of disappointment before.. but two BFP on two different tests seems like a good sign to me!!!

@DrS44 honestly, I was testing from 3dpo. Totally irrational. I had convinced myself I had every symptom under the sun. It seems that anything after 9dpo with an FRER would be a reasonable time to test from what I've seen others doing.

Klprr93 · 18/11/2020 13:47

@DrS44 it’s my first proper cycle after first AF post pill, we can’t wait out the TWW together! 😂 I think I saw on a different thread about Pregnacare, it could just be a coincidence but who knows!

@AMS19 yeah I saw some people had had problems with them, think I will stay off them now. Hope you’re feeling ok!

@positivitytree2020 to be honest it might just be a coincidence as it is only my first proper cycle post poll after AF, think I’ll stay away from them for a while and might try them at another point in time

@CardioQueen never too much info here 😂 I didn’t have anything like that just the florescent wee haha! Hope you are a little less stressed out now

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 13:39

Can I ask those who have experience of the dreaded TWW-

What's the earlier you can or should test?

When is it that you might experience implantation cramping?

Did you experience any symptoms in the TWW?

Thanks guys I think I am currently 3DPO 🤣🤣 true POAS addict x
