Remember Remember The Month of November.. 🎆 THREAD 2

Hi everyone,
congrats on all BFPs!
I’m 13dpo today. Yesterday on 12dpo - after BD I noticed some pink spotting … it could be AF starting to show, but I don’t have any spotting today, so there’s still hope I guess. 😬 AF is expected tomorrow at the latest.

Just want to say thank yous for your congratulations and well wishes 🥰
Best of luck to all those testing this week 🤞🏻hopefully see loads more BFPs 😁

I think I will have to tell work today as I work in a area where we do loads of Aerosol Generating Procedures (AGPs) and I don't think I'm allowed to do them if expecting. Really don't want to say yet 😩

@beckybabyx sounds good!!

Woo I have finally got my peak on my CB fertility monitor, CD19!! Assuming this means I will ovulate tomorrow. I’m so pleased, I was really worried it wasn’t going to happen! Have BD’d Friday, Saturday, Monday and today, hoping it’s enough for that bfp 🙏🏻

So the spotting and cramps have stopped now, fingers crossed it was implantation 🤨 xx

@Digby86 sending love! Sorry to hear that! It really depends what you think will have the most impact? Would it be best to know, so you could get help and deal with any issues? Or do you need to work tonight, so finding out tomorrow would be easier? Wishing you the best of luck!

@OK92 it’s so hard convincing yourself not to test isn’t it! Good luck though! I’m hoping to hold off until Friday now, but also told myself all long I’d test at 10DPO, plus I think I’d prefer to see the negative than AF!

@Peonies94 10DPO today. AF due either Thurs or Fri, going to try my hardest to not test now until then. The struggle is real!

@Decaffe that’s odd, imagine peeing on it, seeing that and getting all excited !

@OK92 that’s weird that you had it too, how many DPO are you? I’ve never heard someone say it’s a symptom and could just be AF symptom but it was odd and I can’t remember ever having it before!

@Decaffe maybe try buying them from the chemist, then atleast you know they’re genuine. I was going to order last night then read the reviews

@Decaffe I was reading reviews on eBay and loads of women commenting that they all gave false positives. Absolutely ridiculous! Fake tests! Xxx

@Decaffe wow! I can 100% see that line. After checking Amazon reviews etc it looks like a lot of people have had issues with FRER. I wish there was a better option than just waiting. Hope your bladder hasn't imploded lol

This is unused - look at the line!

Not sure how well it photographs but it’s definitely there. This is sooo bad!

@Peonies94 I had this briefly earlier! May just have picked up on it as I am hyper aware of any slight twinge in this TWW. 10DPO though and no real symptoms.

[quote madeleine85]**@Decaffe* did you test already? I wasted 2 packs of FRER last cycle. Trying to not use any this time and will see if AF comes or not before testing/using CB/internet cheap ones. Saying this on DPO 4 though lol. @Squiff70* that is a great reference haha.[/quote]
I’m on a 4 hr 15 min hold now, so need to decide quickly 😂 #gettingdesperate

9DPO really think this month isn’t my month, especially with me getting positive OPKs a few times and not knowing where I stand, but if I go by my clear blue OPK I’m 9 DPO. I have this weird stitch on my left side, anyone had this? Probably not pregnancy related, but I can’t think of another time I’ve had this before! Feels like I’ve done a workout 😂

@decaffe they claim its UP TO six days before your missed period. "Up to" covers them for things like LP! It's like DFS saying UP TO 90% off sofas except the one you want is discounted by 10%

Something I’ve wondered about FRERs - they say they work accurately 5 days before your period, ok. But how does that work given different luteal phase lengths? Is it really the case that someone with a 15 day luteal phase has to wait until 11dpo for them to work accurately, but someone with a 12 day luteal phase can use them from 8dpo? 🤔

I know you’re right @Squiff70 but they are calling me from the drawer haha.

Actually, I’ve just checked and the month I got my chemical I got the second line on 11dpo.

That said, in checking my apps I’ve been reminded of last month - very visible lines on multiple FRERs that were actually indents. The lines were actually visible on the sticks fresh out of the packet, and wetting them made them even more visible. But they weren’t positives! I hope these four are a better batch.

@Decaffe I’d wait if you can!! Early bedtime possible at all!? as I would be the exact same 🤣

Im fresh out of wee sticks - and my mind is playing so many tricks on me. Certainly has to be that AF is on the way, but can’t help symptom spot for implantation pain I had it terribly with my first. But 6 years ago so it’s hard to remember exactly.
It’s going to be a loooooong 48hrs for AF to arrive.

Don't do it @Decaffe!

Sending everyone a huge hug. I think we all need it today.

Currently 9dpo with a 3 hour hold. Is it worth a go or shall I leave it til tomorrow morning?!

(I know the answer really!!)

So wonderful to see so many people getting their second lines
