@DM1720 that’s a great line for 9dpo! Fingers crossed everything works out for you. I love seeing positives on this group.

Cheekypeach · 21/02/2022 18:13

Clear BFP DM, congratulations Flowers

allthingssparkly · 21/02/2022 18:12

I'm going crazy now but I don't want to test too early, I also don't have any pregnancy test at home so that makes it easier for me to not test too soon 🤭 I'll order a FRER later in the week via Amazon Prime 😊

I just don't want to be disheartened but what will be, will be 🤍

I think I ovulated around CD11 and I'm on CD19 today so 8DPO?

DM1720 · 21/02/2022 17:55

@allthingssparkly you’re so strong! How many dpo are you? I can’t wait past 8dpo! The suspense kills me.

allthingssparkly · 21/02/2022 17:53

@DM1720 That is good for 9DPO 😊 Congratulations! 👣 I'm holding out as long as possible before testing, my period isn't due till 3rd March 😩

DM1720 · 21/02/2022 17:46

@allthingssparkly I’m 9dpo! Yay, glad I’m not seeing things!

allthingssparkly · 21/02/2022 17:21

@DM1720 I see the line 😍 how many DPO are you?

DM1720 · 21/02/2022 16:57

Ah thanks. I think it’s a bit early to get excited just yet. I’m trying to stay positive but realistic so that I don’t get my hopes up. But that’s draining! Lol. Maybe I should just go with it! Lol

MrsGrealish · 21/02/2022 16:52

@DM1720 I really like those easy@home tests! Congratulations!! I don't think I said earlier 😘

DM1720 · 21/02/2022 16:50

@MrsGrealish ..no my test wasn’t even a frer! I really hope you see a darker line tomorrow! It’s nice to see some progression!

@Charl881 the test was a “easy@home” cheapie! I could see the faintest of lines at 8dpo that you wouldn’t see in a pic but the one today should be clear enough! Best of luck with your test tomorrow!
@BiscuitLover3678 I do hate those “not pregnant” ones too! It’s heartbreaking looking at that! Sorry to hear you’re out. Best of luck with next month.

Pic is attached… I wouldn’t exactly call it a bfp but ist a visible line! Is this super early?! I hope that’s not a negative thing! 😬 I am getting twinges in my right side. I hope it’s not ectopic or something!

@arianasky oh ok, sorry to hear that. Hopefully it will stick next time once you have upped the dose.

Peonies94 · 21/02/2022 16:43

Anyone else at the start of their cycles now? AF just finished so about to start SMEP and using digital OPKs! I’m really hoping I get a short cycle like last month! One previous was 90 days so 🤞!! If this is a short cycle, and a successful one it could just about be an end of November baby providing I get my peak in the next 2 weeks, so I have everything crossed! Good luck everyone!

Sending ✨ to everyone in their TWW, such a testing time! As for everyone else, hope your all feeling okay too!

MrsGrealish · 21/02/2022 16:22

Also I did an FRER on Thursday at 9/10 dpo and Saturday which were both oh so negative. You still have time @BiscuitLover3678. Xx

MrsGrealish · 21/02/2022 16:14

@BiscuitLover3678 the wee stick ones were easy@home you can get them on Amazon for like £15 for 25.
FRER as well but they are too expensive to pee on all the time.
I defo ovulated the early hours of Tuesday 8th OPK gave me a peak on Sunday and I woke up on Monday night with ovulation pains. Xx

Nik84 · 21/02/2022 16:14

In December it took me 2 weeks to catch on that I might be pregnant 😅 We we’re moving house and busy so I didn’t realise I’d missed my period! I wore a pad for about a week though as I felt it was coming. I’ve got 2 children so you’d think I’d know 🤦🏼‍♀️

BiscuitLover3678 · 21/02/2022 16:06

I also feel like my early response should be positive by now but maybe not!

BiscuitLover3678 · 21/02/2022 16:06

@Nik84

I had another BFN today, I’m feeling like AF is around the corner but then I felt like that when I was pregnant too. I just can’t tell the difference and it drives me nuts!
I’m due in a few days and feel the same :( with ds I suddenly ‘knew’ about this time and got a strong positive on an early response. It gives me hope to think you felt nothing before the last time you were pregnant!

Hoping for us!

BiscuitLover3678 · 21/02/2022 16:04

What tests do you use @MrsGrealish? Hopeful to think you can get a positive later even with the earlies!

MrsGrealish · 21/02/2022 14:05

@BiscuitLover3678 I'm due AF tomorrow. Oh god I know what u mean about the digital tests. I have one clear blue weeks indicator and one FRER left. I'll defo not be doing the clear blue till I'm a week late. The 'not pregnant' sign is soo depressing😕 I'm not a fan of clear blue tests anyway,

Anyways thanks for putting up with my dodgy tests ladies and I'll update with the last FRER xx

Charl881 · 21/02/2022 13:34

@DM1720 oooh congrats! What brand did you test on and can we see the line? I only ask as I’m 9dpo tomorrow so want to be nosey 😂

@MrsGrealish I couldn’t see a line in the first pic you posted but could in the different lighting. Fingers crossed tomorrow’s is stronger - or you could try this evening as sometimes HGC is stronger in the Eve!

@BiscuitLover3678 sorry to hear that. When is AF due? I see you’ve started a December thread, will hop on if I don’t get a BFP by this time next week!

BiscuitLover3678 · 21/02/2022 13:29

@MrsGrealish

Hi *@DM1720* if you did an early response test 9dpo is good for a test to be positive. My 10dpo FRER was so stark white I was talking myself out of another pregnancy last night like it's fine you've got three lovely kids, you can go on more holidays blah blah. Literally woke up this morning nauseous and retching and then did THE test. Highly emotional right now though I know I've a way to go yet. A better looking positive would be a start😂 did you do a due date calculation yet?
How many days are you now?

I just did another early response digital and it said a very clear ‘not pregnant’ 😢 I prefer the line ones but have run out !

Keep us updated we want good stories!

Hi ladies, I’m very late to join here! I was a bit scared o join as I just had a chemical.
First of all,
@MrsGrealish I see something on both tests! Wishing you all the luck!
I am 9dpo and yesterday I swore I saw a vvvfl so I tested again this morning and low and behold I was right! There was a much clearer line this morning! It’s quite early to have a bfp isn’t it?! Yikes! I’m excited but so nervous too. I had a chemical in January and we went straight to trying again! My dr put me on aspirin this time so I’m really hoping it will work 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Nik84 · 21/02/2022 11:32

I can see it @MrsGrealish 🥰
