@Tes004

Sorry this has happened, it's the worst isn't it?

Is it just the two tests you've done? Only as I've read it's much more common to get a false negative than a false positive so might be worth taking one more (another brand) to see?

Hi ladies - hope you don’t mind me jumping in - in the process of leaving details on threads as I have searched the net for days being a complete nutter at success stories etc etc
but yesterday I done another test bfp … on Tesco brand which I spent all night being so excited I couldn’t sleep- this morning after seeing reviews I thought better check again complete BFN .. so heads up - don’t use the Tesco 😢 I have to wait to tel my husband when he gets home from work that it was a crap test and no baby - 14dpo today so I guess we’re out - pic added - good luck ladies xx

@Irishgal1987

I did use ovu sticks and dtd on the day of a static smiley face. I found the process stressful and almost took the fun out of it. Wouldn't recommend that, try to relax and enjoy as much as possible!

If you don't mind me asking, did you DTD other days around ovu day too? Or was it one lucky time during that window?

Really happy for you Smile

Irishgal1987 · 04/09/2022 09:20

@Nb790410 covid is a horrible bug, hope you feel better soon!
@wellhelloitsme thank-you so much!
@Jacko10 so sorry to hear about the BFN. The 2ww must be so hard for you with the irregular periods 😔
@Toastyteacakes so sorry mrs but at least you know and can move onto next cycle afresh. Glad to hear you arent feeling too bad 🤗
@Rose785 not really. I did use ovu sticks and dtd on the day of a static smiley face. I found the process stressful and almost took the fun out of it. Wouldn't recommend that, try to relax and enjoy as much as possible!

Rose785 · 04/09/2022 08:57

@Toastyteacakes glad you cam at least move on to the next cycle and not be left in limbo! Yes @Irishgal1987 did you do anything different this month? @Jacko10 I know how you feel! It's awful seeing a negative test. What early symptoms did you get with your last pregancy?

Toastyteacakes · 04/09/2022 08:46

AF arrived this morning ! I don’t feel as bad as I expected to. Any tips for success next cycle would be much appreciated 🙂

Rose785 · 04/09/2022 07:26

Still no sign of period or any pains nothing. Did another test with fmu to be sure and still negative. I didn't beat myself up this time about taking it as I am now late. I just want my period to start now so I can start a fresh cycle for my June baby 😅

Jacko10 · 03/09/2022 23:11

Hey ladies. Also in the 2ww, trying for 2nd baby. My period have been so irregular I'm never sure if I'm late or not which makes the 2ww super stressful. I think I ovualted 11 days ago and got slight implantation bleeding 4 days ago, but BFN this morning. Getting me down :( I have no symtpoms unlike my last pregnancy which I knew straight away. X

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 07:44

Girls I caved and tested early this morn. Cant actually believe it. Need to do another test asap.

This is incredible news, so happy for you Flowers

Nb790410 · 03/09/2022 18:20

I’ve had covid since weds/Thursday. I have never felt so rough in my life. Take extra care out there ladies xx

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 17:07

@Rose785 good woman, an Indian takeaway is perfect. I reckon you should have choice of the movie tonight haha. I'm glad its given you hope.
Aw girls so hard to wait, I hear ya. Wishing you luck for tomorrow @Toastyteacakes

Rose785 · 03/09/2022 17:02

@Toastyteacakes yes me too! Will wait until I am at least late!

Toastyteacakes · 03/09/2022 16:55

@Rose785Sorry 😞 It’s so disappointing isn’t it. I am going to try my absolute best not to test until I miss AF next time. It’s just not worth it.

Rose785 · 03/09/2022 16:54

Thank you! I surprisingly feel ok we have ordered an Indian takeaway to make ourselves feel better ha ha! I am glad to have heard your positive story it has definitely given me hope!

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 16:33

@Rose785 I'm so sorry 😔 it's better to know but doesn't make it any easier. Get yourself a wee glass of wine tonight and watch some crap TV.
Yeah I used fmu this morn but did a clear blue later in the day just to be sure.

Rose785 · 03/09/2022 16:22

I caved and took a test as it said you can test at any time. Stark white negative staring back. I don't know why I do this to myself every month and just wait until I am late before I test.

Rose785 · 03/09/2022 15:39

@Irishgal1987 so happy for you!!! My test arrived still no af... I will try and hold off until the morning. Did you test with fmu?

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 15:08

@Nb790410 @NatGee thank-you ladies!
@Rose785 I felt like that too. I'm 35. So much luck to you testing 🤞🏻

Rose785 · 03/09/2022 12:54

Yes its first response. I came off the pill in October too but we didn't start trying until March as I was in a new job. But had I known it would take so long I wish I had started sooner plus I am 34.

Nb790410 · 03/09/2022 12:37

@Irishgal1987 congrats!!!

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 12:06

@Toastyteacakes aw doll I am so sorry 😔 that is such a difficult conversation to have with your OH too. The whole TCC process is a pressure cooker, the emotions are horrible. I would advise you to be kind to yourself and take some time to do things you enjoy. Take the pressure off a wee bit (easier said than done I know that).

Toastyteacakes · 03/09/2022 11:37

@Irishgal1987 I did a test this morning which was negative so feeling very low to be honest 😞 Husband has said if I am going to be this sad and stressed out if it’s a negative test , he isn’t sure about trying anymore so that’s been very difficult.

NatGee · 03/09/2022 10:03

@Irishgal1987 congratulations 🎊 @Rose785 good luck for tomorrow

Irishgal1987 · 03/09/2022 09:23

@Rose785 it's such a horrible rollercoaster 😔 I came off the pill last Oct so we have been trying since then really but I started properly tracking ovu etc this year. What about you?
Really hope this is your month and AF stays away. Do you have the early response tests arriving?

ChateauProvence · 03/09/2022 09:23

@Irishgal1987 congratulations 🎉
