3dpo, 1st cycle. TWW with me?

@Bexboo1 congratulations lovely! The first BFP on the thread too! How exciting!!!

Let's hope this is the first of many and we get loads more!

I'm going to get some FRERs tomorrow as a last ditch attempt, but I really don't feel like this has been my month. I was so sure a week or so ago and now I just feel kind of deflated. 😔 I've conceived all 4 of my other kids within 2 cycles and this is our second cycle too. Maybe it's because we're older now? I'm in my 30s and my OH is in his 40s? 🤷🏻‍♀️ we had our 4 while I was in my 20s.

@extrababydust123 - thanks lovely😘 ..

Just feel a bit bloated, had sore boobs straight after ovulation, been waking up earlier than I normally would and I am quite irritated lol .. poor DH had to put up with it lately ...😅 AF not due until the 3rd May

🤞we get our BFPs!!

@Bexboo1 massive congrats !! 🥰🥰🙌🙌 all the tests are worth it lol

Ps does anyone else know if cold feet is a symptom ? I literally have the coldest feet all day nothing will warm them up it’s the weirdest thing the rest of my body is super warm but my feet are freezing 🙈🙈

@Bexboo1 YAY is this our first BFP ?
♥️🥳 huge congrats !

@Bexboo1 - amazing news!! Congrats lovely❤️🥳

Thought I would test today but will leave it until tomorrow 🤞

@extrababydust123 aww thank you 🥰 I will I promise, and to everyone else. You are not out yet 💕

Just wanted to update you all, 2 positive frers this afternoon, 2 positive clear blues and a positive cheapie because I obviously didn't believe them 🤣 xx

@ohhisammi love this idea you are prepared 😉 100 percent it has to be a digital test !! 🙌
@Emsjourney this is also a great idea I’m
Undecided was thinking I could put it in a zipper bag in the teabag box and ask for a cup of tea ? lol or I could ask my 19month old to hand it to him but he would probably stick it in his mouth 😂😂
@extrababydust123 exactly I think it will be nice to support each other again next month even if we don’t get BFP’s...

@FinnsMammy I want to get a little vest and put a couple of tests with a clearblue Digi and present it in an empty kitchen drawer and ask him to pass me a spoon so when he opens it there'll be a complete surprise ❤️ hopefully soon xx

@FinnsMammy
I've got a little box with a baby grow in saying "I can't wait to meet you daddy" and some cute confetti, I'll put a Digi test in once I have one I too.

Well I thought my period was coming last night but it hasn't just light brown spotting and cramps (which I do sometimes get before hand) so I going to hold out till Saturday and see what it brings 😂

@extrababydust123 how are you getting on ?

@lena21 thank you. I'm working in Child Services which is super interesting.

Girls, if you do get pregnant how do you plan on telling your partners ? My Hubbie defo thinks we are out this month as I ovulated so late he is already asking me to buy opks for next month! I was convinced my period was coming yesterday and told him the same so he thinks I’m on my period now lol . If I do fall pregnant this cycle it will be a big surprise!!

@November4 last month I tested with a clear blue early detection on DPO 11. It was negative but First response I got a faint line. Don’t lose hope yet ! X

@Bexboo1 you could be pregnant and you may have implanted late too! I know I implanted on DPO 7 last month as i happened to be lying in bed at the time so I felt it happening so I knew by DPO11 I should have seen something but you can implant anywhere from DPO 6 to 12. I don’t believe in evap lines on FRER pink dyes I think if there’s any line at all it’s picking up HCG. If it gets darker happy days but if it doesn’t it’s probably a chemical 😢! Best of luck I hope it darkens for you !

@lena21 I have some clear blue but not sensitive ones 😩

@November4 do your negative frers have evaps/indents? I feel like that's what mine are

@FinnsMammy 11dpo today but not 100% on the day I ovulated, the app says on the Sunday but I don't know that for certain, could have been the Monday 🤷🏼‍♀️

@lena21 sorry to hear about your 2 ina row I heard this was uncommon! I’m hoping I don’t get 2 in a row 🤞🏻

@Bexboo1 how many DPO are you ? Last month I got a faint line at DPO 11 but it doubled in darkness by DPO 13 see below but then DPO 13 and 15 stayed the same colour this raised alarm bells for me I did end up miscarrying but I did read that in some cases the HCG may only double every 48 hours ! So just keep an eye on it! Good luck xx

@Cosyclothes I’m also 7/8 today I think I’m going to hold strong Sunday! With my 19month old son and chemical I waited until 11 dpo with FRER I feel it’s my lucky number lol ! Fingers and toes crossed for you ! Xx

Tested this morning with a clear blue early detection at 11dpo and it was BFN. 😫 I think I'm out girls. 😔

@FinnsMammy - sorry to hear about ur chemical, I had two MCs and trying for baby #1. I know how draining it can all get. Hope this is ur month 🌈😍.

@Cosyclothes - yep with FF you would have to take your temp every morning. At first it might sound like a hassle but it really is a good way to track ovulation. I am quite used to it and it has always been right so worth a try😎

@ohhisammi - new job sounds exciting, hope u r finding it ok . Yep agree to keep the thread going 😀

@Bexboo1 -do you have any other tests you can try? I would say to leave it for another 2 days and test again 🤗🤞

Hi girls, concerned it's not getting much darker? 😩😩do you think they are just evaps xx

@Cosyclothes I’m using OPK’s to track.

@Katiekattty that’s really interesting. Are you tracking your ovulation using OPKs? I haven’t started down that road yet, I might wait a while and see what happens!

@lena21 that’s where you take your temp every morning isn’t it? I am using the free version of Flo too but it keeps trying to get me to upgrade. Lol.

@FinnsMammy I am 6/7 dpo too so I am the same as you! 🥰 I am thinking of testing on Friday out of sheer curiosity.
