@Skl2021 your FRER lines look really good! I wouldn’t be too worried about those.

PamelaDoov · 28/01/2022 13:06

Thank you for tagging me, although for some reason I didn’t get a notification and I’ve only just seen it!
Got my first flashing smiley today. Am I meant to carry on DTD the whole time it’s flashing? What about when it goes static?
Knowing my luck it’ll be flashing for two weeks.

Bridgey8 · 28/01/2022 13:03

@Skl2021 I think I'm 18dpo now... haven't tested since 16 tho... I just get scared that my cheapies are shit at getting darker and that will stress me out!

BlueForYou3 · 28/01/2022 11:49

Sorry to hear that @Ganesh2022 Sad We spend so much time praying for that BFP. It’s such a strange feeling waiting for those tests to go back to negative.

I’ve just done an OPK and it’s negative so I’m hoping that means I’m ovulating today as it’s been at its peak for the past 3 days. Looking forward to joining you all in the wonderful TWW x

Ganesh2022 · 28/01/2022 11:32

*though...not tough progression. progression looks good!

Ganesh2022 · 28/01/2022 11:31

Thanks for the thread! Had a panic when last when ended, too!

@Skl2021 Would you have private blood tests? Last time I bought so many FRER tests and digitals and honestly it would've been cheaper in the end to do bloods :O fwiw tough progression looks great to me.

@JuniperAndTonic I second applying! If you have it in you at the moment, I think why not open all possible doors.

Hope everyone's doing ok; I thought my tests were negative, but this morning I see a very clear though faint line (that I don't want to see as we've not tried again, so it's leftover). Ugh.

@Sparklesurprise29 thanks I was just thinking that by 14 dpo my lines would be darker! It's the light cheapo tests I'm concerned about there still so faint so my HCG can't be high 😩 there only 10/20miu. My frer And Wilko are all fmu! My poundshop one was last night. X

Thank you @juniperandtonic! I hope so too and that work will keep me busy next week😅 if my cycle was my usual one I'd be due AF in a couple of days. I'd apply for the job and see what happens💕 its so difficult when ttc isn't it as everything is so unknown!!

Thanks @skl2021 I think those lines have good progression! What time of day are you testing? Some people get stronger lines at night💖

@Cruz86 oh no is slow progressing a sign of ectopic? 😩 Didn't even think of that. I hate this feeling can't handle the constant anxiety 🤦 I'm sorry your stuck in limbo too 😩 are you past af being due? Xx

Cruz86 · 28/01/2022 10:22

I think those FRER tests have great progression @Skl2021! I understand how you're feeling at the moment though. Hopefully over the next week or so you'll start to feel more confident and maybe you can get an early scan to check everything's in the right place.

I'm 11dpo @JuniperAndTonic. And I say absolutely go for both jobs! You have nothing to lose. Good luck!

@calimc83 I'm just so confused because af hasn't started yet and my temp is still high 😩

JuniperAndTonic · 28/01/2022 10:21

@Bridgey8 Google is never good! But it’s so easy! I don’t feel much different either and I feel the same not believing it’s real! Keep looking at the pictures of my tests to remind myself 😂

@Bridgey8 I'm thinking the worst so I can try and protect myself it's horrible isn't it should be a happy time! What dpo are you? Are you still using cheapies? When was the last time u tested! I need some self control 🙈🤣 xx

Bridgey8 · 28/01/2022 09:49

@Skl2021 I guess you have no idea when you implanted etc etc - but I think they look good! I know what you mean about just wanting to know tho just to prepare yourself for the worst. I'll prob test again before I leave!

@JuniperAndTonic gahh I know I keep going down a rabbit hole of google and then read that uv exposure can make you folic acid deficient so I'm now panicking about that. I've always worn factor 30 sunscreen so hopefully ok 😭 other than the panic - I am feeling no different. Slightly tender boobs and a bit sleepy and peeing a bit more (but that could be the constant water I'm drinking!) but other than that I feel no different - how about you? I just don't even believe it's real as I'm so convinced it will go wrong. How you getting on with your book?

@calimc83 I have another poundshop one but I forgot to take it this morning so I could take it today or wait until tomorrow. I have one frer left aswell 😩 think I'm going to have to buy more! Yes I wish I could step away I'm scared to not test incase there going lighter and I won't know. I know that sound crazy but I would rather know sooner rather than later if there going to go fainter. I just feel so stuck in this situation and I'm just thinking the worst. Xx

@Bridgey8 I’m sure sunburn isn’t a problem just make sure you’re staying well hydrated! I know how you feel though - I’m panicking about small stuff like that too. How are you feeling apart from the sunburn?

JuniperAndTonic · 28/01/2022 09:37

@Skl2021 thank you. At least it’s a distraction from everything else!

@Sparklesurprise29 welcome back! The days do go slowly in the the dreaded 2 weeks wait! Hopefully you can find something to distract you and make the time go quicker!

@Bridgey8 and you should be fine! I'm sure a little sunburn won't harm anything! 💕 Xx

@Bridgey8 there so expensive but I feel like I need to carry on to see the progression incase it stops 😩 I just don't feel very confident for 14 dpo surely it should be coming up on 10 and 20miu by now xx

OP posts:
calimc83 · 28/01/2022 09:36

@Skl2021 disregard the pound shop one as you only have the one. The frer and the Wilko tests are definitely darker. I know you won't do this but step away from the tests for 24hrs remember is it 48/72 hrs that HCG doubles. Finally, don't apologise! Xx

Bridgey8 · 28/01/2022 09:33

@Skl2021 your frer progression looks fab. I just don't trust the cheapies.... I'm considering not testing again until I'm home and can get a frer or digital. Maybe stick with frer?! Bloody rollercoaster tho.

@JuniperAndTonic I say apply for both!

Just got slightly sunburnt and am now panicking!!!

Skl2021 · 28/01/2022 09:33

@JuniperAndTonic exactly! U might aswell apply for both then see what comes back! If both then u can decide then! But I wouldn't count it out completely u might aswell apply! Good luck ✨🎉 xx

OP posts:
JuniperAndTonic · 28/01/2022 09:31

I might have to do that @Skl2021! It’s a really difficult one! Obviously I might not get either job so I might be over thinking it anyway haha!

@Sparklesurprise29 welcome back 🎉 hope the twe goes quickly for you 🤞✨ xx

@BlueForYou3 haha I don't envy you! I ran out of stamina too 🙊 hope your temps change! Thankyou I'm a nervous wreck I just don't feel like it's good news xx

BlueForYou3 · 28/01/2022 09:30

@Skl2021 I think those FRER lines look great! When I got my BFP last year at 13dpo my line was much fainter than that. The cheapies might just not be as sensitive as they say x

Skl2021 · 28/01/2022 09:27

@JuniperAndTonic apply for both! 🎉 Then decide on when you hear back! What have you got to loose! Sounds exciting! 🎉 Xx
