5/6dpo who's with me?

Sorry to hear @CrumchyLeafs, I know it's so disappointing seeing a negative test. It is very normal for it not to happen first time though, but saying that it could be too early for AF and you could be experiencing implantation maybe?

Hey ladies, I think I’m 5 DPO but I ovulated a few days later than usual. Meaning we didn’t DTD on my peak days because DP was at a stag do :(

Not feeling that hopeful this month but also quite calm about. It sure why but I always thought we’d get pregnant in December. It’s only our second month of trying too.

Good luck everyone!

10DPO and BFN with FRER this morning, also more brown spotting. I feel defeated, I just have this feeling that AF is going to show up. At 10DPO a FRER should be able to pick it up. FF has predicted AF to arrive in 5 days but I don't know how long my luteal phase is since this is my first cycle trying and I never had regular periods outside of taking BC, so it could definitely arrive sooner than that.

I did a cheap test with fmu but no hint of a line at all. Hoping I'm just too early

Thank you @CrumchyLeafs and everyone else!

@Bd1787 this is the second month trying for numbero 1! I knew October wouldn’t have been successful as we didn’t DTD close enough to ov! This time we attempted SMEP, so felt like a real ‘proper’ try.

Hoping you are all close behind me with BFPs! ❤️

@Firsttimetrier So happy for you! Praying for sticky bean!

Congrats @Firsttimetrier that's a great line for 9dpo, must be very sensitive strips! I can imagine it's so hard to concret trays on anything else now. How long have you been ttc?

@HollyB7 I held for about two hours before but had a coffee the hour before I did that test 🥴

I’m in a state of shock because I swore this month wasn’t the one. I can’t concentrate at work and now just waiting for DH to come home so I can tell him before he goes away on a boys weekend!

@Firsttimetrier ah congrats!! That's a great positive!!

Did you hold/stop drinking liquids for a while? I always thought you had to do FMU!

I'm sure you're delighted!! Exciting!

@CrumchyLeafs I think so! I think I ovulated on the 10th Nov, but didn’t use any OPKs this month. I think Flo was correct though as I had ovulation pain.

I really shouldn’t have done this on my lunch break as it’s impossible to concentrate at work 😂

@Firsttimetrier Wow! Congrats! Don't even need to squint to see that! Are you sure it is only 9DPO?

Well, I just did get that very faint positive on my lunch break just now. Thought I’d do an internet cheapies out of curiosity and there’s two little lines 😲

Didn’t expect this at all…

Still early days but we’ll see how it progresses. Hope it’s the stickiest of beans.

I’m 100% symptomless over here at 9DPO, which I know is normal. No sore boobs like usual or anything else that may be PMS or early signs.

I think I usually have something happening at this point post ovulation but nothing this time around!

If I get that BFP, I do this it will be a shock because I’m really expecting that it didn’t work this cycle.

@boymummy89 I am always afraid to spill it all over the place too! It is bound to happen one day, haha! I also tested this morning (9DPO) but I just used a cheapie to not waste the FRER yet and ofc it was negative. But not too bothered about it since it would have been crazy to get a positive so early. It was also still dark outside so I couldn't even squint at it! I will probably start using the 3 FRER I have tomorrow and do one every day. Then just use cheapies after.

The spotting I had 7/8DPO is gone thankfully.

@boymummy89 oh sorry to hear! But still early days!! So try again on Sunday maybe? When is AF due?

My temp rose again today, so fingers crossed that was an implantation dip (if there even is such a thing!!) but I don't have any other symptoms so I doubt it.

@boymummy89 oh no! Sorry your test was neg but still very early. I was thinking I would start testing today but actually when I woke up I couldn't be bothered which is very unlike me, think I'm just feeling like there's no chance this month.

My temps have been all over the place this month because I haven't been waking at the same time, but appear to be gradually dipping rather than continuing to rise.

Lots of luck to everyone testing today!

Hope I can jump on this thread
I'm only about 4dpo. It's only our third month ttc but I got so obsessed with POAS last month I've not even used OPKs this month but we have dtd lots! Not been long trying but feels like forever!

Woke up with a huge spot on my chin today which only ever happens when AF is coming so already sign spotting 🙈🙈😂😂

Hi @Firsttimetrier I’m about 9/10 DPO! Welcome to this thread! Not due AF until next Wednesday which would be the latest possible day for me. Good luck everyone!!!! I’m guessing lots of people must be testing in the next few days xxx

Welcome @Firsttimetrier how are you? I'm 7dpo so anxiously waiting to see what happens in the next week. Feeling completely normal right now so not feeling too hopeful but keeping everything crossed.

Hello, is it possible to jump on this thread? I’m currently on the Nov thread too, but nice to chat to others with similar cycles!

I’m currently 8DPO and we attempted SMEP this month but didn’t use OPKs, so based ovulation on the usual suspects.
