@mamazac do you think todayā€™s line is clear? I feels like itā€™s basically not there anymore.

Thanks all x I'd go see GP but from experience with mine they don't really help much and it's hard getting in. They do it over the phone and tell you to ring back in like a year if it hasn't got better šŸ˜‚

@EdinburghGirl1 I'm the same. Not positive so not expecting it this month. You never know x

@Derinsea12 It's been happening for about 3-4 months maybe. I think a month ago it became a UTI with burning after weeing but that stopped after 2 days. This burning when bladder full comes at the same time every month now. It's not really painful just feels a bit uncomfortable. It's like a period pain tbh. I'm 6DPO so can't be period pain. I've had surgery after DD was born due to placenta accreta. I'm worried that maybe scarring from that could be causing something.

@Baby3herewego hmm, not necessarily a bad thing! I don't find those tests very reliable in my experience, still very clear lines so I wouldn't worry too much x

Baby3herewego · 23/08/2022 09:16

Hey ladies. I couldnā€™t get a frer yesterday. I went to 6 shops and all they had was clear blue ( wtaf!) so I picked up the one line test as the others had worked for me on 9 and 11dpo.

Took one yesterday ( much lighter that 11dpoā€™s test ) and have just taken another and considerably lighter again.

Derinsea12 · 23/08/2022 09:01

@Baby3herewego How are you feeling? Have you done a frer yesterday?

@Tartanhaggis oh no, so sorry to hear that. Is it possible itā€™s just a light bleeding not AF? As I heard that thatā€™s also possible during pregnancy.

@BellaTheDarkOverlord I used to have the same symptoms 2 years ago, it lasted for a couple of months but then disappeared. Maybe itā€™s just a temporary thing. How long have you been experiencing it?

EdinburghGirl1 · 23/08/2022 07:58

7dpo for me today and nothing really to report. Been feeling pretty good, no symptom spotting but then no symptoms. Last month I was so positive and really thought I might get a bfp whereas this month I'm not expecting it so suppose I'm more relaxed

EdinburghGirl1 · 23/08/2022 07:56

@Tartanhaggis oh no I'm so sorry to hear this. How are things this morning? Sending hugs.

@BellaTheDarkOverlord that's rubbish you're feeling like that again this month. Might be worth checking with doctor.

@Spinalonga6 fingers crossed for you that it was implantation bleeding and you get your bfp soon.

@Jade57 I'm really unsure if alcohol affects them. CD10 is still early so just keep texting I'd say

Jade57 · 23/08/2022 07:38

@BellaTheDarkOverlord sorry your feeling like that. It might be worth speaking to your doctor
Another faint OPK this morning for me. I'm wondering does alcohol effect the tests? I had a night out on Friday and used FMU for my test on Saturday which was the darkest one I have had although still not what I would say positive. Cycle day 10 today so il continue to test. I tested 3 times yesterday and all the same so I'm not sure if the time of day has any effect

mamazac · 23/08/2022 07:23

@BellaTheDarkOverlord sounds uncomfortable! Hopefully it goes away for you xx

Hi ladies, Iā€™ve been lurking on this thread this month, ttc baby number 1. Period due on Thursday 25 August, but have been experiencing nausea, vomiting, headache and back pain since yesterday (mostly nausea). Flo app told me this morning I could maybe expect an implantation bleed today. Have just been to loo and am bleeding lightly. Pregnancy tests done so far are negative. Will wait until Thursday to test, but maybe this is it! Anyone else experience similar?!

sounds promising, let us know when you've tested! we love a line eyes/BFP!

Tartanhaggis · 22/08/2022 22:11

Think I have had another chemical just been to the toilet and bright red blood like a period starting :(

oh no I'm so sorry, let us know how you are this morning x

@Baby3herewego Fingers crossed xx I'm hoping it's just the tests wrong.

@LauraA31 Great progression. I agree could be twins!

@Tartanhaggis I'm so sorry love xx that's horrible. I hope it's a late implantation.

@Jade57 Hopefully you get the peak you need and didnt miss it.

@Spinalonga6 Welcome xx Goodluck with BFP! It could be implantation!

I'm 5DPO and feel shit again. It seems every month I start with this weird UTI that feels like burning when my bladder is full. It doesn't hurt to wee but only if bladder full and goes when I empty. Googling has upset me now as I found some kind of bladder endometriosis which fits my symptoms šŸ˜„

@Tartanhaggis oh no! Iā€™m so sorry to hear that. What horrible news. Good luck with it all xx

Spinalonga6 · 22/08/2022 22:49

@Tartanhaggis saw your post and couldnā€™t ignore. Iā€™m so sorry, hopefully itā€™s just some light bleeding. Iā€™m sorry that it looks like youā€™re in for an anxious night of it. Thinking of you šŸ™šŸ»

@Baby3herewego Iā€™m so sorry to hear that. Must be so stressful! All the best x

Purple29 · 22/08/2022 18:31

Know its an old wives tale but DS just started bending down and looking between his legs which apparently means a pregnancy in the house!!!

MIW01 · 22/08/2022 18:02

Thank you for your condolences everyone.

@mamazac the sperm can live up to 5 days so every other day will be fine.

I've started bleeding again today. Called midwives and they said is likely to be AF, so my cycle is now all over the place so not sure if I'll get a September BFP now.

Baby3herewego · 22/08/2022 16:01

@Tropicana1 the positive digital was at 2:30pm yesterday and the negatives today where 6:30am and 12.36pm.

The first today would have definitely been concentrated enough as I didnā€™t go at all over night and I held for 3 hours for the second test.

EdinburghGirl1 · 22/08/2022 15:43

@LauraA31 maybe it is twins! šŸ˜Š

Tropicana1 · 22/08/2022 15:36

@Baby3herewego how dilute was your wee when you tested? Maybe it wasn't concentrated enough to pick up on the digital?

jalu47 · 22/08/2022 15:27

@MrsU2022 I normally do them about 3pm, I read afternoon was better (holding wee for about 3 hrs / not drinking if poss). If i'm testing twice maybe 1pm and 5pm. I wouldn't use FMU.

LauraA31 · 22/08/2022 14:50

@Baby3herewego keep us updated, keeping everything crossed for you x
