TTC March 2023 babies 🌸🌷🌿🐇🐣

Thanks guys

@MrsGrealish I've just been taking cheapies but I did a FRER a minute ago just incase but was definitely negative. I think it's just not my month, the progesterone gives you all of the symptoms of pregnancy too so that's been messing with my head massively. Had a chemical last month and a MC a few months prior so it's been a tough year on the ttc front. Sorry to be such a downer. I'll pick myself up by tomorrow I'm sure!

@Maxime34 and you lovely 😘 what tests have you done? I can imagine it would be scary stopping the progesterone if there was a hint of a line. Feel free to rant away and don't go through this on your own❤️ it's soul destroying at this stage of the cycle Xx

@MrsGrealish I've wondered if it's a different variant strain, loads of people I know who've had it recently have been bed bound Ill compared to the tail end of last year when we had it and it was mild

@Maxime34 sorry you're in limbo! Hope you get a result one way or the other soon the waiting is just the worst

Ah guys I am so sorry with what you're going through @MrsGrealish @Charl881 @Tropicana1 I'm in my own angsty world too. Currently 12dpo and AF is due today but not even a whisp of a second line. I'm on progesterone which is probably what's delaying my period so going to stop taking it from today as I feel like I would have a positive by now if it was going to happen. I also had Covid this month and some people have said it can mess your cycle up...bring on April 2023 babies. I feel really down about it and struggling to stay positive but at least when AF shows it's a fresh start and another chance. Sending loads of positive vibes to you all.

@Tropicana1 this is worse than my first covid experience. But thank you for asking xx 😘

You tell me love you're looking at my blood results. @Charl881 I'm in my sick bed now am sure another few hundred ICs will be done in my en-suite until AF finally shows

@Charl881 I can see both of those! Ah I really hope this is it for you!

@MrsGrealish hope you're feeling ok ❤️

@Charl881 jeez char how are you feeling? As a ridiculous midwife asked me 'do you feel pregnant?'

And now because I’m completely obsessed I did another to see if the same thing would happen and the faintest of lines came up within the time frame?

This TWW is seriously dragging 😩

Yeah understandable, so frustrating though when AF won’t show if it’s any other reason than being pregnant.

I stupidly looked back at my FRER about an hour after doing it and it has a clear line which is ever so slightly pink at the top and bottom 🙈 I know it doesn’t count after the time but none of my others this week have done this.

With covid and miscarriage I give up on cycles now

It’s so frustrating isn’t it. The amount of times I thought I was pregnant over the winter only to realise it was another bug picked up from DS. Such a double whammy. Guessing covid could also mess your cycles about too?

@Charl881 thanks lovely I knew something was up. Still no AF or even AF pains but bfn already and covid it's not looking hopeful. My boss rang I burst into tears mortified 😭

Oh no guys, lots of bad news here. can’t believe you have covid @MrsGrealish tbats the wrong type of second line. Feel better soon.

My FRERs arrived and a BFN so pretty sure it was just early spotting and AF will arrive bang on time tomorrow. Only good news for me with that is that at least my cycles would be back to their normal length.

There is an April group set up @Tropicana1 that I’m already lurking on.

I’m not using FRERs any more Ive decided - they’re too expensive, tempt me to test early and then I feel even worse when it’s negative because I’ve peed on a tenner! I’m adamant I’m going to wait for missed period and then test with a regular boots or Superdrug one. Maybe I’m just bitter because I’ve had so many negative FRERs!

@WDWY ah amazing congratulations!

@hipposinacircle sorry to say that I'd be worried about the lack of progression too - should see darkening over the 48hr period for sure.

@Charl881 sorry for the bfn x

@MrsGrealish oh no you've got covid! Fingers crossed af stays away though

Temp dropped below baseline this morning and af has just shown up so I'm out, officially CD1 and an annoyingly shorter LP again this month possibly because of my very late ovulation 😭

@WDWY big congratulations!!

Covid positive. Still no AF yet but negative digital

Oh really?? @Wouldloveanother
Yes I have been getting them from Amazon so that's good to know for future. Thank you

They do seem very faint Hippo and I hate to say I had a horrible evap on my FRER last month (attached). Do you buy yours from Amazon? I’ve read the Amazon tests are very prone to evaps whereas the shop bought tests aren’t.

@hipposinacircle They do look very faint for 13 dpo to be honest and not like they’ve progressed much… but how sure are you of ovulation? Also if you’re still getting lines and not bleeding then I wouldn’t worry too much. With my chemicals I started bleeding very soon after a faint line.

@WDWY congratulations! Great line there.

I am still driving myself crazy. Lines don't seem to be as dark as I would have expected for 13dpo. Although I'm sure implantation only occurred at 8dpo so possibly still a bit early.

Got some digitals arriving today so perhaps that will tell us once and for all.

What do you ladies think?

@WDWY congratulations!! Great lines.

Negative for me this morning. I’ll try with a FRER later but losing hope! Even with my chemicals I was getting lines by now.

Ahhh positive this morning on my cheapie at 14DPO! I'm just in shock and woke DH at 5am. Good luck to everyone waiting and testing, I have everything crossed for you!

@Tropicana1 it sucks no way will I be attempting a digital tomorrow..I thought I was 11dpo today but looked at app and only 10 so that made me feel slightly better

@Charl881 that first photo looks positive never mind the 4 hr later one. Good luck lady 🤞🤞
