@polka14 I think the easy at home dippy sticks are meant to be good? Amazon do them x

What is the best value pack of pregnancy tests that are also decent?

So have felt weird the past few days. Slightly achy boobs, zero cramping and just off. Did a clearblue this morning at 10 dpo (have only one FRER left and wanted to save till period due ) I hate blue dye tests but I'm in work and it's all we sell.

@MrsGrealish I can see a 2nd line!!!!!!! Oh my gosh I am delighted xx

@MrsGrealish congratulations! How exciting! I hope the lack of sickness continues for you that's for sure!

MrsGrealish · 07/05/2022 14:06

@izzyroo92 😊 it's much clearer in person but it's so weird I don't feel sick or crampy 🤷‍♀️

izzyroo92 · 07/05/2022 14:00

@MrsGrealish I can see the second line!!! Xx

@Changingdirections mine says the same about not testing in the morning but I definitely would have missed my last two surges if I wasn't doing morning tests too - I'm probably just an odd one out with that though 😂

PeanuttyButter · 06/05/2022 20:26

Sorry AF got you @RMS0209 but yessss! Onwards to the next cycle. xx

Changingdirections · 06/05/2022 20:14

Tropicana1 · 06/05/2022 19:59

Oh @RMS0209 that's good to know about the clearblue ones, although not good that they're so expensive and can be so far off!

@Changingdirections mine honestly went from barely there last night at 7pm to dark positive first thing this morning and now less positive already this evening so I think I must just have a really short sharp LH surge!

That's interesting, I've only been testing in the evening which is what my instructions suggested but maybe I should try morning too now that I'm expecting I should be ovulating soon

@alwaysseeingstars so sorry I never saw your comment!
This is me on CD38 now 🥲👍 the spotting is getting darker so hopefully AF arrives soon grrrr.
That sounds like a great plan for this cycle... I have everything crossed for you! I surprisingly feel ok about this (last cycle) o kinda knew with leaking so late it wasn't going to be ideal but onto the next one :) x

@PeanuttyButter that has just happened to me! Just got my positive OPK this morning after a total negative last night at 7pm! DTD last night so now just need to try and do it again today / tomorrow!
Might invest in the clear blue advanced ovulation tests next month if I don't get pregnant this month (pessimistic 😂) because at least they measure rising oestrogen too to give you a warning that you're in your fertile week before the LH surge!

I feel like I'm in a similar position, my cycle length is only 21 -24 days so I should be ovulating fairly early in cycle but day 11 now and OPKs (started this month) still very very faint. I had thought they would start getting darker a few days before ovulation but maybe mine will just be suddenly dark too. Im also planning on getting clear blue ones if nothing this month

Changingdirections · 06/05/2022 18:36

RMS0209 · 05/05/2022 10:30

Morning! @alwaysseeingstars nope that's me out... cramping today and spotting is going more red than yesterdays pink... it's ok, im ok..,I just HATE this stage, waiting for AF to appear... sometimes I have 2/3 days of it then my 5/6 days of AF 🥲 onto the next cycle! X

Aw I'm sorry, waiting for AF is the worst

Hjudge56 · 06/05/2022 18:15

Sorry to hear your feeling rotten @PeanuttyButter! Hopefully tomorrow you feel better!
