@Ki-King fingers crossed youll come to full term this time round!!
@anotherscroller omg how addictive are they?! I tested the last two days but not today

anotherscroller · 05/08/2022 10:46

@CDD1992 so sorry 😔
according to FF only 20% of “perfect conditions” ovulation/insemination actually succeed.
It's so so hard 😢

anotherscroller · 05/08/2022 10:45

This morning I weed into a cup and then hunted for a test before chucking it into the loo with a “oh stop it!” 7dpo. Quite proud of myself for not doing one. But I do think I’m going mad. Need help!

Ki-King · 05/08/2022 10:27

@NatGee unfortunately no, I've just had the typical 'chromosome abnormalities' even though none of my losses were tested. I'm currently debating whether to go back to doctors and request further blood testing for recurrent mc xx

NatGee · 05/08/2022 10:19

@MrsCristiano 12DPO can still be early for some.... never know what your hcg levels will end up being
@Ki-King hi and welcome! fingers crossed for you that your AF will be late. sorry to hear about the miscarriages has your doctor shed any light on why? baby dust to you xx

thedust · 05/08/2022 10:18

I couldn't resist and just did one, negative! Expecting AF to show up today or tomorrow and then can get started on next month. Ordered a BBT thermometer.

MrsCristiano · 05/08/2022 10:08

@Charl881 I'll break on Sunday I know I will🙄

Ki-King · 05/08/2022 09:58

Hey!

I did post a message but all new to this and I don't think it posted 🤦🏼‍♀️ late joiner here! 10dpo and due AF on the 8th. So far all negative :(

We're TTC our final baby, This would be #4. 3rd cycle fully track but unprotected for over a year now, our last baby resorted to fertility treatment and we've had 3 miscarriages with our last in April xx

Charl881 · 05/08/2022 09:42

@MrsCristiano I said I wouldn’t test until 12dpo this cycle too. But that will be three days after AF is due now so not sure I’ll stick to that!!

NatGee · 05/08/2022 09:30

@thedust oh no, how frustrating! if you can wait for first morning urine, i hear theyre more concentrated xx baby dust!!

thedust · 05/08/2022 09:22

No AF yet, due yesterday or today. I tested this morning but the test didn't work!! No lines at all. Now waiting until I next need a wee...

MrsCristiano · 05/08/2022 09:22

@Charl881 nope nothing. I'm gonna test on Tuesday at 12dpo so any result then will be conclusive! No more line squinting. However I say that today because I'm at work i might fail on Sunday 😂

CDD1992 · 05/08/2022 09:17

@NatGee ita due sunday so 2 more days of painful waiting. No real AF symptoms at the mo. The only difference is my skin is really clear which is unusual, normally I have a bit of a breakout the week of AF
X

Charl881 · 05/08/2022 09:05

I finally got my peak! After using almost a whole box of clear blue tests. Typical the one month I choose to use the pricey ones is the month I ovulate late. CD19 today, guessing I’ll ovulate tomorrow. Annoyingly haven’t been able to DTD since Monday so I don’t think I’m in with much chance but will DTD today and tomorrow and hope for the best.

@hipposinacircle has your face stopped flashing yet?!!

@MrsCristiano Any more symptoms or sign of AF?

@J1290 congratulations, that’s a nice clear BFP!

NatGee · 05/08/2022 08:56

@CDD1992 I am sorry to hear :( whens your AF due? maybe you can do another if it doesnt arrive by then? xx

CDD1992 · 05/08/2022 08:37

12DPO and a BFN for me today 😔

NatGee · 05/08/2022 08:03

@J1290 Amazing news!!! Congratulations and to think you were out only to have a BFP, wow, so much hope to us all :)
@Englishgirl9 hcg levels can fluctuate, for the same person on different pregnancies. I will agree, 10DPO is still early and until you another few days in, your levels might be below detectable. Good luck and baby dust xxx

Englishgirl9 · 05/08/2022 07:58

Thanks @Orangesaretheonly , I know it's still early just with my son I had a blazing positive at 10dpo so I am basing it on that experience. Fingers crossed for you!

Orangesaretheonly · 05/08/2022 07:49

Englishgirl9 · 05/08/2022 06:23

Negative test at 10dpo so I guess I'm out of cycle 2 and on to May TTC.

10dpo is still early! I'm 9dpo today and desperate to test but know it's still so early! Keep testing my fingers are crossed for you x

Englishgirl9 · 05/08/2022 06:23

Negative test at 10dpo so I guess I'm out of cycle 2 and on to May TTC.

@Babydust99 I agree ovulation will probably be tomorrow so Saturday would be 1dpo

@J1290 that looks like a positive to me🙂

Sorry yes I meant Saturday too! Can't keep my days straight at the moment...

@J1290 congratulations! What DPO did you get your BFP! You must have been over the moon! Thats interesting you got the daggers down there, thats a gd way to describe them… maybe it’s a sign, time will tell!
