@dollface22 there's no mistaking that line!

@HippeePrincess I use premom for opks, you can sign up for the paid bit but I don't bother.

Lovely to come back after another week or so and see some more BFP's, congratulations!

I decided to go ahead and track my first cycle off contraception, so far it seems my body is getting back to normal right away, had the withdrawal bleed 3 days after stopping it and counting first day of that bleed as CD1 I would be CD14 now and have had what I think is a peak OPK today, I'll continue to test out.

Had a look at ovulation trackers, places you can upload tests etc to help you work things out but I can't see any good ones that you don't have to pay for - does anyone have any good suggestions for free apps?

We have another busy two weeks ahead hopefully some of the things we wanted to sort before TTC will be sorted then, even if they're not sorted I think we'll go ahead anyway as I am aware it could take some time and like someone said earlier in the thread there's still 9 months to sort it.

I'll be due AF roughly the end of this month ready to go in June. We did have a slip up without a condom this month as ovulation tests were blank and I figured it would be fine as too early in my cycle especially as it's the first month off contraception, not that it really matters now but glad I didn't come off contraception any earlier!

hevann · 15/05/2022 10:31

Congratulations to the BFP's over that past few days. Fab news for you all 🎉🎊

I tested this morning still a BFN not even a smidge of a line, only 11dpo so there is still hope I'm not out yet but I don't think it'll be my month again just waiting for AF to arrive. x

LaVitesse2022 · 15/05/2022 10:26

Great to see so many BFPs! Congrats @MrsGrealish and @dollface22 😃

How many DPO when you tested positive, if you don't mind me asking? Planning on testing today once I arrive home (DPO 11)

lj2022 · 15/05/2022 10:21

@dollface22 @MrsGrealish congratulations to you both how exciting ❤️

LucyLoopyLu · 15/05/2022 10:04

@dollface22 🤩 no doubting that result! Have you told your OH?

HeathenPlayingHouse · 15/05/2022 09:45

Congratulations @dollface22 and @MrsGrealish!

FourOclock · 15/05/2022 08:11

Great line @dollface22 congratulations!! Smile

Tropicana1 · 15/05/2022 08:08

Congratulations @dollface22 amazing line!! 😊 Sorry if you've already said but how many DPO are you?

Thanks so much everyone ! The support is amazing on here ! I'm praying for you all also xx

LucyLoopyLu · 14/05/2022 20:41

@MrsGrealish congratulations! I saw you had a BFP on another thread but I am just a lurker there so I didn't post 🙊

@Wingingit09 definitely wouldn't worry if that was me, bit weird but just keep an eye out for it happening again

WingingIt09 · 14/05/2022 20:37

@MrsGrealish definitely a way to go 😂

@Dreamingof3 yeah I'll just see if it happens again I think. Will certainly be putting it to the test with DTD during my upcoming fertile window.

All the BFPs are so exciting! Hoping there's lots more to come soon!

OP posts:
Dreamingof3 · 14/05/2022 20:31

Ahh congratulations @MrsGrealish !!

Lots of positives 🤩

@WingingIt09 I've had that before, I wouldn't be too worried I don't think. But see if it happens again?

MrsGrealish · 14/05/2022 20:28

@WingingIt09 thank you xx 21.1.23 soo far away and I feel like a blob already 😂

TMI question... but DH and I just DTD (CD6). Period mostly finished CD4, with a small amount of brown spotting yesterday morning on CD5. After DTD there was bright red blood, which has never happened before... should I be concerned? Don't think it could be period blood as it had finished?

OP posts:
LucyLoopyLu · 14/05/2022 17:35

@dollface22 very exciting! Definitely a proper line! Congrats x

HeathenPlayingHouse · 14/05/2022 16:58

@dollface22 Congratulations! That looks like a great 2nd line!

Thanks for all the lovely messages, everyone. The bleeding seems to have finally stopped, my experience has been that either it'll start again in about 5 days, or I'll have around 8-12 weeks without it.

I'm hoping for the latter, partly to get a break but also because we're due to ho away at the end of next month.

DanceWithYourBalloon · 14/05/2022 16:57

@dollface22 I see it! 🥳
I got my strongest lines on the cheapies. The posher one I got from the pharmacy was weak! 😂

I got my blood test results back from the laboratory here in France and I am officially pregnant now. 😂

dollface22 · 14/05/2022 16:38

Thank you so much !! i am not really 100% certain tbh my brain isn't allowing me to believe it yet as I suffered a miscarriage last year !
I got one FRER I will be doing in the morning & I may another 2 pack! i will be getting a loan in the amount of money I spend on tests 🤣🤣
