@mamazac I see a faint line!

My2boysaremyworld · 05/08/2022 20:19

@mamazac will ring doctors next week if no further. I keep getting strange cramps mainly in the evenings xx

My2boysaremyworld · 05/08/2022 20:18

@Ballygowenwater how many days late are you? Xx

Missgemini · 05/08/2022 20:11

@Ballygowenwater such a shame. It seems a few ladies are having delayed periods for unknown reasons. They say weight loss helps. But it varies per person. Are you ovulating? I know they say losing weight helps when people arenā€™t ovulating.

Missgemini · 05/08/2022 20:09

@mamazac oooo I see something! Crossing everything for you!

Ballygowenwater · 05/08/2022 18:58

Iā€™m still here waiting for AF with resoundingly BFNs, day 34 šŸ˜©

Going on holiday in September but when I get back I think itā€™s time to really put some effort into losing weight to see if that makes a difference at all.

@LuckyMoonstone ah thank youā¤ļø

LuckyMoonstone · 05/08/2022 18:21

@mamazac I can see it!! These are the ones I'm using and I'm getting nothing! I'm 6 days late!! Xx

ah I'm not going mad šŸ˜‚!

Have you spoken to the doctor? Maybe you could get a blood test?

So 10dpo today and took a cheapie this afternoon because I can't resist. Not a long hold and have drunk a lot so wasn't expecting much but something very faint! Will retest first thing tomorrow of course!

@simplythequest thats great news! Congrats!

@Albieroo thanks! Wishing you luck x

Albieroo · 05/08/2022 13:05

@simplythequest thank you for your reply. I am sending you all the sticky thoughts I can! Congratulations ā¤ļø

simplythequest · 05/08/2022 13:02

@Albieroo I usually wait until the day before or the day af is supposed to start. In December, when I got my first BFP, I waited until 14dpo because I was only on cycle 2 and we were so busy with the Christmas holidays that I didn't get hold of a test until then.

Since I miscarried that pregnancy, I've been a little less relaxed about it. I waited until 12dpo this cycle - which happened to be this morning - and got my BFP. Really hoping it sticks this time šŸ¤žšŸ»

LuckyMoonstone · 05/08/2022 12:59

4dpo now and Iā€™m already wishing the time away! I have a busy week next week and a family party next Saturday to distract me, then 14dpo will be the following Monday so Iā€™m trying to wait until then!

Tropicana1 · 05/08/2022 12:57

@Albieroo I have seen some ladies get very early 9dpo positives but it all depends on implantation - implantation usually occurs 8-10dpo on average I think and hCG then needs to rise to detectable levels. Knowing
This does not stop me checking "just in case" šŸ¤£

Albieroo · 05/08/2022 12:51

@Tropicana1 - glad it isn't just me then! Is it likely to show that early? This is my first month trying!

Tropicana1 · 05/08/2022 12:50

@Albieroo don't think I've ever gone longer Than 8dpo šŸ˜‚ this Sunday will be 9dpo and the only reason I'll be waiting that long is I'm currently on holiday with no tests haha

Albieroo · 05/08/2022 12:46

@NatalieSF - I haven't even ovulated yet and already thinking about it! Grin

NatalieSF · 05/08/2022 12:08

@Albieroo I try and wait till 10dpo but I don't always make it till then šŸ¤£

Albieroo · 05/08/2022 11:54

How long after ovulation or pre AF do people check for a BFP?

My2boysaremyworld · 05/08/2022 11:52

@NatGee thank you xx

NatGee · 05/08/2022 11:23

@My2boysaremyworld i am so sorry to read i know its difficult not to expect the worst but if something was wrong youd probably know by now. might just be really good positive news! yes, maybe wait a few more days, i think GPs are quite variable in terms of what help they give and when. Baby dust!!
