9DPO and AF due 2nd March. Fighting the strong urges to symptom spot and test. Wasted money last month with early BFNs so I am determined to wait until AF is due but the days are so long...who’s with me?

Omg @Sunny1986 that is fantastic news!!

@Gigi1109 unbelievable you’ve got a BFP first month this time after such a long wait before.

I’m desperate to test now! Really going to try and hang on.

I had a massive temp drop this morn so af is on her way.. no testing for me!

Herehoping93 · 26/02/2021 07:34

Hi I'm due on on Monday 1st :) believe I'm 10dpo have no test at home so haven't done any yet. Just a serial symptoms checker have had sore boobs since 6dpo which I rarely have. and severe constipation sorry if tmi. But took clomid tablets this month so could have caused me to have strange symptoms. Today I'm very emotional have cried already since getting up. Cause I had a dream that I did 5 pregnancy tests and they where all positive then woke up and couldn't find them :( .. I have two D'S. Been TTC for 2.5years after a MC 3.5years ago... Wishing you all luck.

11DPO today. AF due Tuesday. I only have CB digital in the house and not ordering any other tests so that should keep me away from them as I don’t want to waste those! Keep us updated if you do test

@Hopefulhedgehog staying strong so far! But my tests should arrive today so maybe not so strong haha my app says 2 days until a test so I’ll see if I can hold out until then. What about you? Are you 11/12 dpo?

Hopefulhedgehog · 26/02/2021 07:22

@Gigi1109 Are you still staying strong?

@Sunny1986 what day are you going to re-test? Hope it’s a stronger line for you!

@xoJellyBean hope those temps are staying up and AF stays away

Symptom spotting kicking in big time today. Had sore boobs since 6DPO, temp dip at 10DPO and noticed some v mild cramping today. It’s going to be a long wait until AF due on Tuesday!

Sunny1986 · 25/02/2021 13:53

@Gigi1109 I'm staying strong 💪 at least until Saturday as we're meeting a mate for a long dog walk and we'd usually take a hip flask with us 😂 will probs do another cheap test tomorrow

Gigi1109 · 25/02/2021 13:50

@Sunny1986 There’s definitely something there!! Hopefully it just gets stronger! You’ve got great willpower I would’ve peed on that FRER 😂

Sunny1986 · 25/02/2021 13:48

@xoJellyBean haven't tried temping but if we don't get a bfp this month, I think I'll give it a go. You finding it confusing? What app do you use to track?

Sunny1986 · 25/02/2021 13:47

@Hopefulhedgehog cycle buddies! Haha love it

@Gigi1109 pic attached. If it's there, it's rrrreally faint so I'm not getting excited!

Gigi1109 · 25/02/2021 13:22

@xoJellyBean I’m not hun! Oh noooo hoping it doesn’t arrive!

I’ve just ordered FRERs to come tomorrow 🙄 knew I’d cave

xoJellyBean · 25/02/2021 09:38

Is anyone else temping? My chart is confusing me 😭 think af is coming though.🤦🏽‍♀️

Gigi1109 · 25/02/2021 08:19

@Misspacorabanne oh wow what a lovely thing to read this morning! Thanks so much! You’ll imagine I can’t remember 😂 it took a while so I think I was in and out of so many threads! Congrats on DS, hope it happened quickly for you! Thank you so much you’re so lovely 😊 just hoping #2 doesn’t take as long! X

Misspacorabanne · 25/02/2021 08:11

Hi @Gigi1109 I'm not trying to conceive, so not really sure how I ended up here! Grin but I think I remember you from a thread way back when I was TTC dc2 and you must have been TTC dc1. I've name changed since... But I now have a 9 month D's. You were lovely on the thread and kept everyone's hopes up month after month! I'm so glad it worked out for you in the end, and good luck with it all take two! Smile

Gigi1109 · 25/02/2021 08:03

Hi! @Sunny1986 @xoJellyBean

I’m either 9/10dpo today! Normally would’ve taken one by now but I’m going strong! Have you got a picture of your test sunny? Definitely save that FRER although I know if I had any in the house I would’ve used them by now 😂

Hopefulhedgehog · 25/02/2021 07:56

You are exactly the same as me @Sunny1986 I’m 10DPO today and due AF on 2nd March. Save that FRER as long as you can you don’t want to waste it early! I am holding out until AF due if I possibly can.

OP posts:
Sunny1986 · 24/02/2021 22:34

Also 9DPO today, due on 2 March. I took a cheapie test this morning and I'm flip-flopping between thinking there's a faint pink line to seeing a blank white space 🤦‍♀️ saving FRER for Sunday if I can! 2nd cycle of TTC 🤞

xoJellyBean · 24/02/2021 22:05

@Hopefulhedgehog used to be a serial tester but I no longer keep them in the house 🤣 I find a bfn more upsetting than af!! When are you testing?
