Anyone testing around April 19th? My 2ww is just starting.

Morning everyone,

Congrats on the lines, I can definitely see them both! ❤️

I did a FRER this morning and it couldn't have been more negative, I've just got this sinking feeling I'm out for this month. But this is my first cycle TTC in 5 years so I don't remember how long it took for a positive 😂

If I had spotting last Wednesday which I was hoping was implantation, should I be getting at least a faint positive 6 days later?

I feel fine, slightly crampy, actually a bit hungrier than usual I think...the thing that almost had me convinced is I've been suffering from recurrent thrush, like clockwork, the week before my period for a year, my period is due Monday but no thrush this month. My CM is also different thinking about it...I'm driving myself crazy overthinking this!

Morning ladies,

Ooo it's all happening this morning!! 😅

@Rosegold3112 I definitely see a line!

I had an awful nights sleep last night and woke up feeling so sick and hot.. decided to test as all my will power went out the window.

Sure I can see vvvvvv faint line but I'm completely convinced they're evaps though so not feeling hopeful..

Hard to see in the photos but I have tried to adjust so you can see what I can see..

The cheaper test showed up straight away but the clearblue appeared after about 5 minutes so don't think it's reliable.. Also did a cheap one-step and negative.

Will maybe try and hold and test again later.

Feel so awful today but think it's lack of sleep 😩

@GeraniumCedarwood I'm using premom, fertility friend and femometer. Premom says I'm 10dpo, it out a coverline in today. FF thinks I o'd yesterday and haven't entered on the last one yet. I think I'm 9dpo though so would be very early to be getting a line. I hope you get some answers from a gynaecologist soon. I find ttc opens uk so many questions and makes me feel so out of control of my body. It's an anxiety minefield!

@GoT1904 ooh so exciting! I really hope it's the real deal for you 🤞 nothing worse than trying to get a pic of a faint line though, just reinforces the line eyes 😂 I'm just like you, I always say I'll wait but as soon as tests are in the house they go so quick! DH always buys extra cos he knows what I'm like but really it just makes me test more. They're like chocolate 😂 I got a pic of this mornings. Last night's line is very obvious and was after 10 mins which makes me think they're evaps cos it's far too early to be getting strong lines for me I think, but still here's hoping! Have you managed to get a pic?

@Rosegold3112 sounds like we are having similar symptoms, what dpo should you be today before your apps moved? One of mine moved my ovulation day forward a few days ago. What are you using? I’m using natural cycles, fertility friend and Premom , I hope it works out for at least one of us. My spotting last night was a similar colour to the picture you posted but it appeared a bit heavier when I wiped. Really praying it doesn’t return today!

But also trying not to get my hopes up as I’m waiting to hopefully get to see a gynaecologist about a number of issues I’m generally having which I think might be impacting on my fertility.

Oh also, I've had horrible cold symptoms since yesterday and feel much worse today. My temp was then raised again and all my apps have changed their mind that I o'd yesterday now 😒 bloody technology 😂

@GeraniumCedarwood just read your post and feel in the same boat exactly! I woke DH to look at my test but no idea why as he can never see lines unless they're blaringly obvious. And then no matter how many times I explain the difference between opks and hpts he gets confused and insists its only positive if the line is darker than the control 🙄😂 still I bother him with it every time! No matter what he says I can definitely see a line but I think it's an evap on mine as it appeared at 5 mins. So frustrating the wait isn't it!

Morning ladies! My spotting stopped completely yesterday and cramps have gone. My spotting was only after bm though so that could be why I haven't seen any. I gave in and got some cheapie tests from tesco and did one last night after a long hold and thought I could see a line appearing just at the 5 min mark though 😒 so I did another and nothing. The first test I dipped for 15 seconds and the second only 5 so I don't know if time affects evaps. So frustrating! Done another this morning and the same thing happened, just before my alarm was about to go for 5 mins I thought i could see something. There was a definite faint line there while I was staring for the next 2 mins but then it's past the time 🙄 trying not to get my hopes up. I woke DH up to show him and shine torches everywhere so he's not best pleased with me 😂 so hard not to get my hopes up.

How is everyone else feeling today?

Good morning everyone - my apps are saying I’m
anywhere from 7dpo-9dpo today. Just tested and got a BFN. Slight line eyes so asked DH to look and he said I was being mad and deffo just trying to see something that didn’t exist!

I had some spotting yesterday evening after I was experiencing nausea , but that’s now stopped. Mild pms cramps, and I’m starting to just get a gut feel that my period is on its way, and that yesterday was just PMS nausea my last luteal phase was very short )7days

How’s everyone else holding up?

@GoT1904 I’m guessing my peak was later afternoon/ evening yesterday as my test line was pretty dark afternoon yesterday but when I tested about 11am today it had started to lighten again so think I missed my surge overnight!

I didn’t know if having a shorter cycle could impact EWCM!

@GoT1904 that sounds promising! Sending you lots of baby dust😊

@PositivelyPrehistoricMom sounds like the same bug has hit your home as it did mine last week. Sending best wishes for her to get better soon xx hopefully the queasy feeling is a good sign though!🤞

Of course it could be that DD has just coughed so much phlegm up she’s also made herself sick (just a little bit not a full on vom session - she’s full of a cold) so that could be making me feel a bit icky. No food for me now as just the thought is making me queasy.

Hey everyone! Sending lots of baby dust your ways!

I hope you don’t mind me jumping on.. I was hoping to contribute to the convo once I’m at least 7/8DPO but I wanted to ask if anyone can relate to this!

I’m pretty sure I ovulated today according to OPK’s and my Flo app. I have a shorter cycle (24/25 days) and ovulate CD11 usually (which is the case today!)

But it’s the first time tracking my EWCM. I woke up this morning with creamy consistency and then had about 4/5 hours of EWCM and since 8.30pm tonight it’s been creamy again!

Is this a good indication that ovulation happened today and is that a very short period of time to have EWCM?

Any help would be great thanks!

Hi all! Is it alright if I join?
I’m half way through the TWW, 7dpo today and it couldn’t be going any slower lol!
Not many symptoms really, nipples are very sensitive but not sore as such, had some twinges in my left back and and lower abdomen both today and yesterday (trying not to give hopes up too much because i know how my mind plays tricks on me haha).
Weirdest one for me which I don’t normally get is very vivid dreams! One of them I dreamt that my cousins were telling me I was pregnant and they were excited to meet the baby! So weird! Woke up confused as to where I was because it felt so real!

Hi everyone sorry I've been quiet ☺️ I hope everyone is okay!

Sorry for your loss @lettyloulou ❤️

I joined this thread as AF is due for me on 16/04, I'm 9DPO and had a BFN this morning and trying not to feel sad about it. I keep telling myself it's probably still early and it's only cycle 1 of TTC for me!

Getting cramps but think this might just be AF on her way early 😫

@lettyloulou so sorry to hear that, god that must have been so hard, I have everything crossed for you ❤️

Do you mind me asking how old you are?
I'm 32 (33 in July) and trying for baby #2 🙂

Xxxx

Welcome @lettyloulou! What cycle are you on? Good luck 🤞😃 xxxxx

@Graceybaby it's good to see it like that! 😂🍷

Hi @lettyloulou welcome in the TWW!

I'm changing my mind all the time about when to test 😅 now I'm thinking that I might wait Thursday (11dpo) if I manage: I was checking my app and noticed that the 3 last cycles I started to get some spotting pre-AF at 10/11 dpo, and then AF 2-3 days later. Never had that before miscarriage, I wonder if that happened to someone else and if it's something to worry about?
Anyway, I'm thinking 10dpo is on Wednesday, so I will try to wait and see. If I don't have any spotting by then I'll test on Thursday, if I do I will just wait for AF. That way I won't waste too many tests and can keep them for next month 😅

Hi everyone. I'm just starting the ttw and am 1DPO, so will start testing at 9DPO which is 19th April 🥰 got a peak OPK on Saturday and dtd twice early on Sunday morning so I'm hoping that's enough! Readings are low again this morning so I think the window is now shut!
