@Dex1521 I hope your going to buy some of the first response ones for when to test in a few days. Don’t rely on them cheap stick ones! 😂

jessi60 · 20/12/2020 09:34

@Dex1521@Emmgrem Doesn’t help when I sit staring at it wanting to see it be darker😂
Thanks for your reassurance.

Yeah positive opks are deffo a sign of pregnancy. I’ve done a couple since my positive and they all look like this ..

@Emmgrem honestly I can’t help myself 😂 imagine I did get a BFP this month I’d be a mess lol 😆

Emmgrem · 20/12/2020 08:28

Forgot to attach chart update. My temps are hovering above consistently the cover line... does that not matter as long as they stay above it?
So weird that they've been so jagged the whole time and now plateauing. I can't find any similar examples on FF.

@AMS19 Yep already had the FF crosshairs, and in my TWW. I just thought I'd keep doing OPKs each day to see when they drop back down to 0 but they haven't yet. And obviously I'm googling and reading into that as possibly because of pregnancy 🤷🏻‍♀️
However as you can see my Premom app is clearly crazy if it thinks that's a peak. I've never even had a peak or anything higher than 0.7 before!

@Dex1521 wooop! Looking good girl! I'm laughing that of course you did another IC but I do get why you'd have the need to double check after yesterday's result just incase.

@jessi60 it looks darker to me 👌 nothing to worry about there id say!

Dex1521 · 20/12/2020 08:24

It definitely looks darker @jessi60 also the test from Tuesday will have dried up now so it can darken/lighten itself naturally just from being old. I fished the one I did yesterday out of the bin and it’s a lot darker than when I posted the picture yesterday there is definitely a shadow line on it now but I know it’s false and due to sitting for longer it’s darkened.

You’re still getting a positive on a FR which is amazing as long as They’re positive you’re pregnant, you probably just have lower HCG levels compared to others as it took ages to show initially x

jessi60 · 20/12/2020 08:03

@Dex1521 Glad to see you’ve gone back up! 🥳🥳🥳 xx

jessi60 · 20/12/2020 08:02

First time I’ve done a first response test since my first pregnant one. It’s not one of the Early ones just the rapid one. Obviously my worrying continue.. Do yous think this is much darker? 😞
The tope one is Tuesdays and bottom one is today’s. So 5 days apart.

Morning everyone I meant 😂 don’t think I’m fully awake yet haha

Dex1521 · 20/12/2020 07:49

Morning evening my temp went back up this morning which is good. Did another IC pregnancy test this morning with FMU and it was crystal clear so yesterday definitely a false positive 😞 my own fault though for doing it too early. Least my temp is back up though. Could that be an implantation dip or is it too early (I’m 6dpo)?

Thanks for all the suggestions I’ll definitely look them up xx

Oh @Emmgrem sorry just read it properly. You've already ovulated?! Are you thinking this might be showing HCG then?

OP posts:
AMS19 · 20/12/2020 05:11

@Emmgrem definitely a decent opk. Like you day, doesn't look as strong as premkm is saying but doesn't matter, a peak is a peak! Hopefully a temp rise this morning or tomorrow morning then so you know you ovulated 🤞

AMS19 · 20/12/2020 05:10

@Dex1521 Nosecco all the way. Tastes like a sweet prosecco! I absolutely loved it. Haven't been able to tough the stuff since I had nausea, but all I can drink right now is squash, not even water. But when it tried it I loved it!

OP posts:
PowerOfFlowers · 19/12/2020 22:21

@Dex1521 I've just put Nosecco in my Tesco order, plus I've got some Shloer 😄 I've drank the white grape Shloer tonight, was ok. It settled my stomach which is good!
Ohhhh @Emmgrem what a peak that is!! Crazy!!

Bells20 · 19/12/2020 22:00

@Dex1521 I did some Googling and the Friexenet non alcoholic sparking wine is meant to be really good so I've got a bottle of that and also a bottle of Nosecco for Christmas. I have tried neither yet though. I did however try the non alcoholic kopparberg which is alright. That's the best review I can give it 😂

@Emmgrem 😂😂 premom is on another planet for you I think!

Emmgrem · 19/12/2020 21:05

Hahaha had to show you guys this. So I finally got my peak 😂🙄🙄🙄
This is why cheapie OPKs are useless! CD25.. and pretty sure that would never be a 2.75 anyway as it's not even darker than control line.

However I'm taking it as a good sign that I'm still getting positive OPKs at 5DPO 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ok this is a question for all the graduates

Just Incase i need these options for Xmas day and Boxing Day what is the best non alcoholic drinks

Preferably bucksfizz/Prosecco replacements

Dex1521 · 19/12/2020 18:31

@Emmgrem haha I’ll be your guinea pig 🤣 BFPs for us both then lol

Yeah I feel sorry for anyone who’s had to change plans but also think about how good it is to hide it also! Definitely feel grateful to get pregnant soon as won’t be missing out socially too when we do get back to some form of reality

AMS19 · 19/12/2020 18:18

@Emmgrem I'm in London so in teir 4.

We would have told our parents and siblings over Christmas but will now wait until after the 12 week scan which will make me feel a lot better. Takes the pressure off a bit. I'm gonna definitely wait until I can tell my mum in person. I'm also a bit relieved from a safety perspective too. A lot of my family are key workers so pleased to not have the exposure there. Just have to hope it is only a month or so then we can get back to some form of normality!

OP posts:
jessi60 · 19/12/2020 18:16

@Emmgrem I know! 😂
Just like low key her and my dad on Christmas Eve but obviously say how early I am. And then probably wait later until I tell my sister, brother etc. Xx

Emmgrem · 19/12/2020 18:14

@Dex1521 I feel like I'm living vicariously through you 😂 I don't need to test as you've done it for me.. now I'll just wait until you test again so that I have permission once you get an early BFP 😆

@jessi60 ohh that's so sweet about your mum and the drinks but so awkward. How will you tell her, Xmas present announcement or low key because it's early?

@AMS19 it was meant to be!

We're in the south so a lot of my friends have gone into tier 4 and so can't even see other people on Xmas day now. Grandparents not able to see their grandkids etc, I feel for them 😣 But I keep thinking at least this would all be a good time to be pregnant with the lack of social occasions and not missing out on anything! I have a lot of wedding next year and already letting myself picturing maternity dresses if those go ahead 🙈

GreenApplesYo · 19/12/2020 17:53

@AMS19 and anyone else this applies to, really sorry if your Christmas plans have to be cancelled. Such a shame. DP and I were always just going to have a quiet one with just us, but I do feel for anyone who has had to make changes xx

jessi60 · 19/12/2020 17:49

@AMS19 I’m still going to have to tell my mam super early which I don’t want to☹️ She was sending me her shopping trolley when she was in Tesco the other day. Saying how she’s got me aperol etc for Xmas. I feel so bad 😂 xx

PowerOfFlowers · 19/12/2020 16:51

@Bells20 - I need to get myself some Lactulose! Hoping it'll help because i feel so ugh with it!
@AMS19 - there we go! Problem solved 😄

AMS19 · 19/12/2020 16:37

Well...that solves my issue of telling family early 😂😂 if ever there was gonna be a christmas write off, I'm glad it is this year when I'm hiding a pregnancy and can't drink!
