Omg I'm so confused, been getting cramps last few days so I think AF is on her way then today woke up no cramps, wcm, boobs very tender and feel a bit sick so I'm not sure now. AF isn't due until Sunday so not sure if I should test or not.

@WillowRose1411
It's been 5 days of flashing smiley on the clear blue dual hormone I usually only get 2 or 3 at most then static which makes me think its not picking up on lh

Sometimes your body gears up to ovulate releasing the hormones etc and then doesn’t trying again a few days later. I’ve had this before with positive opks 4-5 days apart but only a rise in temp can absolutely confirm you have ovulated lovely. Deffo bd just incase!
But fingers crossed it’s good news and you get your bfp!

@cakelaur
Im 100% that I ovulated on the 30/31st

1sttime21 · 11/02/2021 10:57

@WillowRose1411
I do everything but temp so I'm positive I ovulated when 2 types of tests confirmed it

@Cakelaur so pleased no spotting is af due tomorrow or sat? You are so close!

Ha @girlmummy25 sound like me don’t give up hope!

@1sttime21 do you chart/temp? Are you definite you have already ovulated? I’d deffo bd just to be sure!

Hiya newbies! Welcome to the crazyiness!!

@1sttime21 sorry it's a bfn babe. Are you sure you're not ovulating then? If defo hop on hubby just in case.

@Mellous there is a line there though. It generally takes 48hours to double hcg, so you may just need another day. Hopefully it's not residual! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@WillowRose1411 sorry you had a bfn this morning. But like you said... Sunday is the day.

I'm trying really hard not to poas before Saturday. 💪 but may cave tomorrow at 10dpo. AF due Saturday.

@girlmummy25 any signs of af coming?

I still have no spotting so I'm hoping that's a good sign!!!

girlmummy25 · 11/02/2021 09:54

@WillowRose1411 you sound like me with the poas every day after you start doing it haha! Its not over until AF!

Yet another BFN at 12dpo. I dont know why I keep doing them but I cant help my self haha
AF due tomorrow

1sttime21 · 11/02/2021 09:49

@Applecrumble24
Yeah I will just hold out till Af is due or maybe the day before and test again😊x

Applecrumble24 · 11/02/2021 09:35

@Mellous step away from the tests? easier said than done!
@1sttime21 there's still hope!
@WillowRose1411 🤞 for a valentines bfp x

1sttime21 · 11/02/2021 08:52

Sending lots of love to you @Mellous as @Applecrumble24 said the wait is just torture! But don’t lose hope. Xx

Mellous · 11/02/2021 08:46

@Applecrumble24 yes it’s so frustrating and I keep doubting myself, was the test I took a few weeks ago really negative like I thought it was? I wish I’d kept it to compare. I think I need to step away from the tests for a few days and maybe speak to the doctor if they’re no darker (or fainter!) by Monday.

@WillowRose1411 fingers crossed for Sunday for you 🤞

Applecrumble24 · 11/02/2021 08:43

@Mellous
I can't see it on that one, maybe it's the light.
I guess the only way to know for sure is have bloods or keep testing and wait for it to get darker.
I really feel for you, the not knowing is torture isn't it Flowers

Welcome @ContadoraExplorer and @MeltingSnowflake! Fingers crossed for you.

@Mellous maybe try again in a few days? Let us know what the go says if you talk to them.

Took a test this morning rushing around before work obviously bfn! I don’t know why I bother as I’ve never had a bfp before 13dpo which will be Sunday for me!
Good luck to anyone testing!

Mellous · 11/02/2021 08:33

I’m a bit worried that because the very faint line isn’t getting darker it could be leftover hcg from my miscarriage. Hmmm. Maybe I’ll call the GP next week xx

Mellous · 11/02/2021 08:31

This was this mornings test. It’s not really gotten any darker Hmm

Anyone else in 2ww??
ContadoraExplorer · 11/02/2021 07:59

Hi, hope you don't mind me joining, going slightly out of my mind here too. Have 1 DD 18m and TTC #2.

Thought it was way too easy as the first time we BD back in October, I got a BFP but it was a chemical unfortunately. My periods have since been all over the shop, random spotting, late (according to Ovia which has always been really accurate) and last for odd lengths of time plus the app keeps moving the ovulation predictions.

This month I started to OPK early and we DTD the day before I got a positive and the day after. They were IC's so I wasn't sure if it was actually positive as the line wasn't quite as dark as the control but it disappeared the next day so I presume it was.

Assuming I ovulated the day after, I'm 7 DPO. Slight cramping, lots of gas (thank god i'm WFH!) and I keep imagining my boobs are a bit uncomfortable but I remember them getting really sore the last time (so bad I had to buy a sleep bra cause I couldn't stand the lack of support) so It really could all be my imagination.

Fingers crossed for BFP's for everyone!

MeltingSnowflake · 11/02/2021 07:26

Hello all! Hope you don’t mind me jumping on the 2ww bus!

1st cycle for baby #1 - I’m due AF on 16th (close to you @WillowRose1411 ! 🤞🏻)

Snapped and tested today but BFN as obvs too early - I’m so impatient 🙈😄

Good luck everyone!

Cakelaur · 11/02/2021 06:29

Excited to see tests this morning mamas!!! Good luck all! Xx

@cakelaur I probably will end up poas every morning now 🙈 I have some cheap internet tests although when I got my bfp last month they stayed negative for a few days after.
Keep us updated! Not long now 🙂

WillowRose1411 · 10/02/2021 21:07

@1sttime21 ahh exciting let us know what you get in the morning! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Cakelaur that’s really positive you don’t have any spotting fingers crossed for you too! You are so patient not testing. I have no idea when to test as not sure how many dpo I am but doesn’t stop me from poas 🙈

OP posts:
1sttime21 · 10/02/2021 20:53

@Cakelaur
If its negative then I can't wait for this cycle to be over🤣 I never have these kind of symptoms I have always had it quite easy

Cakelaur · 10/02/2021 20:51

I'm so excited for you!!! I will be waiting with baited breath!!! 😬😬😬
