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 😫🤣

Honestly for cycle #2 I’m going to make sure I don’t have any tests in the house at all, they just send me crazy testing from around 5dpo which I know is silly, I just can’t help it and then I’m going through all the unnecessary emotions ☹️🤣

So I did a bad thing 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’ve had some symptoms over the past few days, a ridiculous backache and some cramping, have been super hungry and tired and even had a nap in the afternoon the last few days including today and stupidly decided to use my frer just now when I woke up definitely not using fmu and it was a bfn. Now I feel like I’m not pregnant and I’ve just been imagining everything 😫😫😫

I cannot wait for the TWW to be over whatever the outcome, I can’t deal with the emotions and this is my first cycle 😂

@extrababydust123 I've ordered some frer so I'm going to use one on Tuesday as I will be 9dpo! I'll just use my ic's tomorrow, I know I'm a serial tester I think I just like to waste them haha. Let me know how you get on tomorrow 😬🤞🏼 x

lena21 · 25/04/2021 15:14

That's exciting girls! Lots of luck to you both 🤗 let us know how u get on!!

Emsjourney · 25/04/2021 14:41

@ohhisammi exact same for me! 🤞🤞 I've had bad low back ache today and a ever so small amount of slight brownish discharge. Although I do tend to spot anywhere between 2-5 days before AF 🤷🏻‍♀️ we'll soon see x

ohhisammi · 25/04/2021 14:31

Hi Girls !
I'll be testing in the morning too.
I'll only be 9dpo too so still a few days of testing I reckon but fingers crossed I'll have a BFP by the end of the week ! (AF due Sunday)

Good luck everyone testing this week !

Also @Bexboo1 I’m 26! I will try a frer in the morning as I will be 9dpo, so could very well show up if I am 🤞🏽 I know I’ve been testing too early but it’s so hard not to 🤣 x

@Imo123 still super early lovely! Easy to be disheartened but lots of people don’t even get BFP’s until 12dpo so seeing it this early would be amazing!

@lena21 thanks for always reassuring me 💖💖 you are a trooper for being able to wait to test!! I really really hope this is your month xx

@Imo123 couldn't agree more. Wow getting married next year must be exciting!!, congratulations 💐💐🥳

Imo123 · 25/04/2021 09:32

@lena21 Aww thank you, that cheered me up! It's so hard, you can't help but get your hopes up can you! I don't think it helps that we've put a deadline on TTC because we're getting married next year so it's added pressure 🙄 Although I just managed to get my partner to agree to another cycle trying so that's made me feel better!

lena21 · 25/04/2021 09:23

@Imo123 - 9 dpo is also quite early... most ppl don't even see a faint line at least until 12/13 dpo.. tww is hard isn't it?

lena21 · 25/04/2021 09:15

Morning ladies, how are we doing?

Didn't test this morning, temp has dropped today which isn't a good sign and my boobs feel less sore than yesterday.. God knows what's going on ...will wait to test until this Thursday...

@extrababydust123 - done lose hope, 8 dpo is still quite early, will keep everything crossed for u 🤞

Imo123 · 25/04/2021 09:07

Frer negative for me this morning ☹️

Bexboo1 · 25/04/2021 09:04

@extrababydust123 awww don't be daft you are only 8dpo! Try a frer in the morning instead, they are a lot more sensitive than the ic's. Have you had any symptoms? I'm 28, you? X

@Bexboo1 aw lovely! And it is so unbearably long, only 8dpo and feels like I’ve been waiting months 😂 done another ic this morning and yet another bfp, can’t help but feel like this isn’t my month 😫 how old are you if you don’t mind me asking? X

OP posts:
Bexboo1 · 24/04/2021 22:53

@extrababydust123 yeah they are I got them from there last month! Yes it will be our first too! Hopefully it will be, fingers crossed for you 😘. The tww is soo long isn't it 😩 x

@Bexboo1 yeah I saw someone on here recommend the ic’s to keep it a little cheaper 🤣 I think frer’s are fairly cheap on Amazon if that helps! And yes it’ll be our first 😊 I’m just so excited I really hope this is my month 😫 will it be your first lovely? X

OP posts:
Bexboo1 · 24/04/2021 21:52

@extrababydust123 Haha I was the same last month, went through 3 boxes of frer 😂 so bought ic for this month but I'm tempted to get some more frer. Will this be your first? X

extrababydust123 · 24/04/2021 21:37

@Bexboo1 oh you’ve been super busy then! 🤣 we dtd every other day before ovulation and then on ovulation day so hopefully that was enough 🤞🏽

And I won’t lie I’ve already tested this morning at 7dpo (because I’m a nutter and a poas addict 😂) and it was obviously a bfn. I’ll probably be testing every day from now as I have millions of ic’s also, and same as you, if I see a hint of a line I have some frer’s waiting to be used 😁😁 x

Bexboo1 · 24/04/2021 21:15

@extrababydust123 sorry forgot to ask when you are testing? 💕

Bexboo1 · 24/04/2021 21:01

@extrababydust123

Hey *@Bexboo1* of course not 😁 I was a little like that but the premom app found my peak so that’s good! When are you thinking of testing? I really hope this is your month 🤞🏽💖
I have a few different apps and my peak is different on all of them?! 🤯🙈 so tried the opks and dtd everyday for about 5 days haha. I ordered loads of IC from Amazon so I'm going to start tomorrow just because I'm obsessed with poas 😂 but if I see any hint of a line I have 4 clear blues from last month as I went crazy and bought loads as I was 3 days late. Hope it's yours too 😘

Hi I hope you don't mind me joining! This is my second month ttc. I'm 6dpo I think, honestly don't know what I was doing with the clear blue opks as it was my first month using them. Hope everyone gets their BFP's this month

@Emsjourney same as me, I tested this morning too. Hope you aren’t too disheartened, it’s way too early. Still chance for us! Fingers crossed for Monday 🤞🏽💗

OP posts:
Emsjourney · 24/04/2021 13:11

Well I totally tested this morning, obviously bfn. I think I may be 8dpo but not entirely sure 🤦🏻‍♀️ do not know why I did! I'm going to try and hold out until Monday for the next test 🤞 holding on to hope! X
