Currently 1DPO (I think). Got a positive OPK on Thursday so assuming I ovulated either yesterday or maybe today. Have had sore boobs, bloating and cramping today.

Anyone else at the same stage who wants to wait with me?

@toadstool32 I understand what you mean but that’s looking great!

Poppydoppy18 · 29/06/2021 19:02

@T2710 that’s sh*t 😶. I hope they’ll send them to you again.

Been switching between “So much cramps, I’ll definitely get my period tomorrow” and “I feel exactly the same specific symptoms as my first pregnancy”.
So confusing. Fingers crossed 🥺🤞

Guys I got a dye stealer today. I'm 15dpo. I've convinced myself it's something wrong like a molar. Miscarriage sucks out all the excitement Sad

TWW anyone?

@rathernotshare aeeeeeee surely!! ✨✨✨

@T2710 nightmare - hope you manage to track them down soon!

T2710 · 29/06/2021 15:37

So my internet cheapies have, according to the app, been put through the letterbox. However, it's was not my letterbox. Marvellous, no tests and now whoever has received them will no my name and that I ordered tests.

rathernotshare · 29/06/2021 15:12

@overtherainbow21 yeah I think it's a great idea now because it's given me hope, had it been made a clear negative I'd be saying why do I do this 😂 I just did another with a very diluted afternoon wee and same very very faint line, either a bad batch or we're onto something! 😬

overtherainbow21 · 29/06/2021 13:40

@rathernotshare I'm the same 🙈 every month I wonder why I do it to myself. I actually tested negative on cheapies before positive on CB with my daughter, had totally counted myself out so I know it's possible - just wish I could remember what DPO that was!

rathernotshare · 29/06/2021 12:06

@overtherainbow21 this is why I can't stop testing after I start, even if it's an evap at least I had 1 happy day of hope 😂

overtherainbow21 · 29/06/2021 11:56

That's encouraging to hear, thanks @abbs1 ! X

abbs1 · 29/06/2021 11:54

@overtherainbow21 youre not out yet. In my previous pregnancy i didnt get bfp till 4 days after period was due so you still have time and remember everyones hcg levels rise differently. Keeping my fingers crossed for you hun xx

overtherainbow21 · 29/06/2021 11:51

@abbs1 sounds right to me - I peaked on 19th so think I'm a day behind you! I feel like I must be out but realise it's still a bit early so will try again tomorrow. I looked back in the thread by the way and saw what you said about cramping which would fit with the timing for implantation and then getting a faint positive today...sounds promising!

abbs1 · 29/06/2021 11:49

@T2710 oh I hope the tests come quickly for you and you get your bfp. I had some cramping Sunday and Monday and DH commented on my boobs looking bigger 😂
I suffered with horrendous hyperemesis with my little boy so im hoping its not as bad this time but im definitely more prepared and know what to expect if it returns.

abbs1 · 29/06/2021 11:45

@overtherainbow21 i did ovulation sticks and they were high the 18th and 19th of June so dtd 19th and 20th. So from my app im 10/11dpo as im not sure of exact ovulation day. Hopefully tomorrow the line is darker and better on the FRER

overtherainbow21 · 29/06/2021 11:41

@abbs1 sounds like a good plan. How many DPO are you? Sending lots of positive thoughts for a positive test your way ✨

@T2710 the waiting is the worst, especially just before AF due- by far my least favourite point in TTC. Good luck, hope they arrive quickly!

T2710 · 29/06/2021 11:29

@abbs1 is personally go for FRER as I think in the early days they're easier to read than a blue test.

I ordered. Few bits from Amazon to get free delivery. Tests were supposed to be coming today, everything else on Thursday. Everything else has just been delivered and still waiting for tests.

I've been more crampy last night and this morning, could be early af symptoms o don't know. Hate the waiting and guessing. Going to try not to drink too much and hold my wee until those tests come!!

abbs1 · 29/06/2021 11:25

@overtherainbow21 im gonna get one of each and use FRER tomorrow and uf it's positive wait to the weekend to do the CB

overtherainbow21 · 29/06/2021 11:19

@rathernotshare oooh sounds promising! You're giving me renewed hope after another BFN at 10DPO this morning! I feel like a line of the same thickness as the control which appears immediately can't be an evap surely? Everything crossed for your retest ✨

@abbs1 this also sounds exciting! I always see people recommending FRER but I've had reliable results from CB in the past too. Good luck!

abbs1 · 29/06/2021 10:03

I did a cheapy test this morning and swear i could see a line! Can anyone recommend if i should get a FRER or clearblue for tomorrow?

GeorgiaJ92 · 29/06/2021 09:15

@JuneySunshine Thank you! Timing wise it's 7 days past my 5 day transfer with IVF! I got another strong BFP today so now I'm certain it's not the trigger! So excited.

Keep positive and you've got this lovely

rathernotshare · 29/06/2021 08:52

@BritInNZ I do get EWCM usually on ovulation day, but not always. I don't pay too much attention (tmi but I only notice if it comes out in a glob 🤢)

It's soooo faint I can't seem to get it on a photo, it's the full thickness of a line though (cheapie). When I've had evaps before they have been very thin lines. Being 11dpo if it's not an evap, I'd have thought it would be clearer so I'm not convinced Confused

BritInNZ · 29/06/2021 08:32

@rathernotshare

Another day, another game of evap or pregnant 🧐 it came up right away but it's sooooo faint
A line is still a line! How many DPO are you? Any pics of the test?
BritInNZ · 29/06/2021 08:31

usual PMS symptoms, no surprise there (still hurting nonetheless).

I have a question - does everyone here get EWCM? I don't and now I'm wondering whether that might be contributing to me struggling to get pregnant. I've read on Google it's not always EW, can be watery, but wanting to know what everyone else experiences. I do notice more CM which is what I'd consider a bit more watery around time of ovulation but I don't know if that's 'fertile' CM?

Ailie12 · 29/06/2021 07:29

@JAL2 When you get LH peak, it indicates you are likely to ovulate within 24-36 hours after that, and your most fertile days should be the day before the peak, the peak day and the ovulation day.

BritInNZ · 28/06/2021 19:58

7DPO here! I won't test until AF doesn't arrive though. I was thinking of testing early because I have a wedding at the weekend so will have some drinks, but I find AF arriving less traumatic (and less expensive!) than using my FRERs!
