@CrumchyLeafs it’s usually around then, I’ve never had a really dark one on them tests, I take clomid to conceive as I don’t ovulate without

CrumchyLeafs · 15/11/2021 16:44

@WorriedD93 I don't think you have ovulated yet. Do you normally ovulate on day 13? It could be that it's still coming up.

WorriedD93 · 15/11/2021 16:33

Girls I think I ovulated on cd 13 but on the app it’s says “low” do you think I did ovulate then or before? I had sex 3 days before then that day too?

@MidnightPatrol looks like a bfp to me for sure! Congratulations!!

@MidnightPatrol congrats!! 🎉

CrumchyLeafs · 15/11/2021 15:33

@MidnightPatrol Congrats!!! Wow that is so clear! Smile

Essexnewbie · 15/11/2021 15:14

Hi guys do you think that top test is a positive for my LH surge? I don’t know if it’s still a bit faint. Guessing if it’s not quite there it’s not far off? Not used these sticks before so any advice appreciated! Thanks so much 💘

Yay @MidnightPatrol I would definitely take that as a positive congratulations ❤️

MidnightPatrol · 15/11/2021 14:33

Thank you!

It’s been a long time coming. Strangely I just felt something was different this month.

Just in time for lots of trying to not drink over the entirety of Christmas without anyone noticing…!

WorriedD93 · 15/11/2021 14:29

@MidnightPatrol aww amazing congratulations ❤️❤️

Natalie2304 · 15/11/2021 14:25

@MidnightPatrol awww congratulations ❤️ 🤞🏻for a sticky bean xx

MidnightPatrol · 15/11/2021 14:25

@WorriedD93

10 or possibly 11DPO. I was ovulation tracking.

WorriedD93 · 15/11/2021 14:23

@MidnightPatrol congratulations ❤️❤️ How many dpo are you?

MidnightPatrol · 15/11/2021 14:21

Ok I couldn’t resist and went to get a FRER to back up my slightly vague boots test results.

This came up in three minutes. I guess that’s my BFP? Shock

Now going to be testing daily to see if it’s stuck!

Everyone is symptom spotting and I am too! It is so hard not to! I keep telling myself that it's all just caused by progesterone and could still end in a period.. I read somewhere yesterday that "If you have enough pregnancy hormone to get symptoms, you have enough to get a positive test" and that is probably true. Most symptoms don't show up until 6 weeks apparently.

But yet I still have a horrible back-ache and this heavy feeling in my lower stomach! I can't even tell if these are just natural pre-AF symptoms because while I was on BC my symptoms were totally different, but of course that was because of the BC... so I really have no clue what a natural cycle would be like in terms of symptoms.

@Billymay feeling warm is a good sign! Since your temperature is supposed to be elevated after ovulation! Smile

Cmacq32 · 15/11/2021 13:10

Hi, yes I believe your in with a chance. I didn't get my BFP untill Pod 16! People told me I'd know before then but every brand of test was negative. She's now 11 months!

Natalie2304 · 15/11/2021 13:01

@winkles23 they all look positive to me too. I'd stop testing using the FRERs now as it will drive you mad. Get a digital if you feel the need to POAS but if you are really anxious a call to your GP for some bloods will help settle your worries ☺️

WorriedD93 · 15/11/2021 12:52

@winkles23 I don’t think it looks any weaker they just show differently when they settle after the original timing. Congratulations

Billymay · 15/11/2021 12:44

@alexalexalex18 there’s some positive symptoms there. In my previous 2 pregnancies I’ve never once had spotting or implantation bleeding and some people get no symptoms at all… it’s a minefield isn’t it and these 2ww are so long! Xx

winkles23 · 15/11/2021 12:42

Hi ladies, so I had my first dye stealer today (I think) top to bottom is 12dpo, 14dpo, 16dpo, 18dpo.

I feel like the bottom looks weaker than the other two on top though? Am I going mad? Thought this would stop after a bfp :(

alexalexalex18 · 15/11/2021 12:37

@billymay I mean my breasts hurt a bit and they are bigger but no veins or change in color. I'm more tired than usual but I'm not nauseous and I didn't have spotting.

newjourney21 · 15/11/2021 12:35

Everyone's posts are getting me very excited/nervous for my journey to come and I'm still waiting for my withdrawal bleed to end Grin I can see a long road ahead!!

newjourney21 · 15/11/2021 12:33

@MidnightPatrol that looks like a line to me!!!

Billymay · 15/11/2021 12:00

@Natalie2304 I hate symptom spotting too but my bra is so uncomfortable today ive just had to take it off, I also feel warm? It’s probably that I’ve put on weight and I’m coming down with something but you just never know until a positive test or Aunt Flo 🙄 abd I could smell my husband’s feet last night so maybe my sense of smell is heightened?
@alexalexalex18 Doesn’t mean your out some people don’t get any symptoms.
@MidnightPatrol I can see a line 😍 I found the boots test the best ones last time I was pregnant.. wait a few days and do a digital one. Xx

Natalie2304 · 15/11/2021 11:42

@MidnightPatrol that looks like it has colour to me! Congratulations!
