Anyone else 3dpo? When do you suggest the best time to test is? I have some frer’s and some ic’s and I honestly think I won’t be able to get through the weekend without testing 😫🤣

@ohhisammi I'm due Sunday and yep think I'm out too. All bfn's so far and pretty sure getting all pms symptoms, although the pregnacare vitamins have totally messed me up 🤦🏻‍♀️ hope you're settling into new job well 😃

@FinnsMammy it's a lovely group and nice to share how we're all getting on.

I'm looking forward to tracking this next cycle properly. I have the clearblue digital monitor, has anyone used this? Also want to track my bbt. Cycle 8 for me. 😞 feels like it's been ages! I understand some couples are trying a lot longer but it really is tough

Hi ladies sorry I've been awol I started a new job.
Think I'm out this month AF due Saturday but feels like she's coming early.
It'd be good to keep this thread going, love how we are roughly on the same time frame ♥️
Good luck to everyone still in.
And let's get going on the next cycle to the rest of us 🥳 cycle 3 for me.

FinnsMammy · 28/04/2021 20:31

Hi girls! I’m hoping I can join ! TTC baby no.2! Currently 7dpo after my chemical pregnancy last month! xx

@Cosyclothes -
I use FF app which I find quite useful if u r doing BBT, this has helped me track and confirm ovulation. Also kept me sane 😅

I have used the free version of Flo which was good, think the paid version is better but don't think it's better than FF app.. again that's just my opinion..🙊

@Veronika13 ,@extrababydust123, @katiekattty sorry u feel AF is gonna show up, I see my optimism running low as well but hope we are wrong 🌈🤗

Katiekattty · 28/04/2021 17:53

@extrababydust123 I’m sorry you’re out too but we can at least have drink over the Bank holiday.

@Cosyclothes I use Flo too but the dates are off when it comes ovulation for me especially since I started testing.

Cosyclothes · 28/04/2021 17:28

@Bexboo1 I can still see the line! By tomorrow it should be pretty clear I’d say!

@extrababydust123 so sorry that you feel you’re out for this month...it’s not over until af shows up!!

What do you ladies think of the app Flo? I use it as well as P.C. (period calendar), they’re usually pretty in sync but this month my ovulation day was a day later on Flo.

@Veronika13 sorry to hear you’re feeling down today, rollercoaster isn’t it! 😞 there’s still lots of time for a bfp though, you aren’t out until af arrives. Everything crossed for you

@Katiekattty sorry about your bfn 😫 sending love to you. Hopefully we get our BFP’s next cycle ❤️

I got BFN and I’m sure I’m out. All my normal signs of AF are here now. Roll on cycle 3

Veronika13 · 28/04/2021 08:51

Af due next Sunday. I'm thinking to stop even stop using Flo as I just can't get my hopes up again ! Sad have a feeling I'll be out again. Good things just don't happen to me easily.
Miss negativity here today 😅

@Bexboo1 4 days according to Flo, hopefully she hurries up 😂 thank you lovely, it’s my first cycle so I kind of knew, just hope next cycle is the one 💖

@extrababydust123 when is af due? You're not out until she comes. Sending you lots of love 💕

extrababydust123 · 28/04/2021 08:18

@Bexboo1 I definitely see something! Also hcg doubles every 48 hours so I’m sure it will be darker tomorrow! Congrats lovely ❤️

Bfn for me this morning ladies, I’m 100% out, you know when you just know? I’m not sad about it anymore I’ve seen enough negatives over the past few days to soften the blow 😂 Can feel af on its way and now I just want it to hurry up so I can get on with cycle #2! Going to take a different approach and try the smep plan and take calc fluor once I’ve ovulated (supposed to help thicken the lining ready for implantation). Hope next month is my month, fingers crossed for any of you testing today 🤞🏽💗

Thank you, I hope so but trying not to get my hopes up 😂. I'm going to get some more frer from boots for in the morning 💕 x

lena21 · 28/04/2021 08:12

@Bexboo1 - I see shadow of a line, super exciting!! Good going for just 10 dpo. sending you all the luck in the world!!🤗🌈

Emsjourney · 28/04/2021 08:10

@Bexboo1 definitely! 🤞I've heard some people haven't had a positive on them til 12dpo. Xx

Bexboo1 · 28/04/2021 08:07

Unedited, you can't really tell close up but if you click on the picture it should open in full xx

3dpo, 1st cycle. TWW with me?
Bexboo1 · 28/04/2021 08:06

@Emsjourney yeah I'll post it now, I'm just not sure thought it would have been darker by now 😂 xx

Emsjourney · 28/04/2021 07:57

@Bexboo1 oh how exciting! Do you have the unedited version? It should do by tomorrow. They say 48 for hcg to double and still early. 2 visible lines on a test is great! 😃 xx

Bexboo1 · 28/04/2021 07:49

Omg mind the dust on my window sill, it's literally the dustiest house in the world! (New build site) Mortified 😂

3dpo, 1st cycle. TWW with me?
Bexboo1 · 28/04/2021 07:47

Morning girls, tested again this morning with frer. Line is a little darker today but not by much so don't really know what to think. The line is visible without editing on my phone but I've edited it anyways to compare it to yesterday's. I feel like it should be darker than it is though for 10dpo so I feel like it's a chemical or just an evap because I don't want to get my hopes up. Got no frer left now either, only clear blue 😩. Sending baby dust to you all, hope you get your bfps soon 💕

November4 · 27/04/2021 23:07

@extrababydust123 it's SO hard. Keeping everything crossed for you tomorrow. 🤞🏼 thank you, I've specifically put my tests in the car so that I'm not tempted to use them in the morning and hold out an extra day. 🙈 I was so convinced a few days ago that this was the month I'd find out I'm pregnant, but now I'm having doubts already. My CM has dried up too and I don't think that's a good sign. 😔

@Cosyclothes thank you, you too. ❤

@Bexboo1 good luck for tomorrow! 🤞🏼 it could be our first BFP on this thread! 🙌🏼 I'm 9dpo so the cramping was at 7dpo. It only lasted a few hours, but it was really uncomfortable, I'm hoping it was implantation and not that I slept funny. 🤣🙈

Thanks for all your nice words ladies, you have kept me sane and helped me get through the last 2 weeks 💗

@Bexboo1 good luck in the morning, don’t forget to update us!

Fingers crossed for anyone testing tomorrow, I hope you all get the BFP’s you deserve ❤️ just remember, you aren’t out until af arrives, and it will happen when it’s meant to ☺️

Cosyclothes · 27/04/2021 20:41

@Bexboo1 best of luck!!

Small1607 · 27/04/2021 19:54

@Emsjourney it sucks! Been trying for a while so kinda just expect AF now and don't want to get my hopes up 🤦‍♀️ OH just had SA results and all ok so will be my tests next x

Emsjourney · 27/04/2021 19:35

@Small1607 oh it's horrible isn't it? The only thing that gives me a little hope is that I have implantation bleeding/cramping with my first and went on to have a bfp. And I also had a constant 'feeling' on coming on for first 2 weeks roughly. I think I know deep down that's not the case though this time 😞 xx
