1dpo - it's going to be a long two weeks if anyone wants to symptom spot with me

Heyyy I am back in the two-week wait if anyone is in the same boat and wants company, I ovulated 29th sept I believe! Chemical pregnancy two cycles ago so wishing this cycle is the one 🤞🏼

@Peeonastick22 My Clear Blue OPK always gives me a static smiley about 2 days before my easy@home peak. I would probably miss it if I was relying solely on the CB. I still use them as it’s good to have the heads up (and avoid starting DTD too early 😅).

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 12:39

@Peeonastick22 oh! That's a long range. Thanks for sharing. Useful information for others too as I had no idea!

Peeonastick22 · 14/10/2022 12:28

@Kayycatt just did a quick google and it looks like you can ovulate anywhere from 1-3 days after a smily face on the clear blue ovulation kit!

I’m officially day 1 of my cycle (I thought I’d started the other day but was only spotting!)

I saw on another thread someone saying that they like to think of each unwelcome day 1 of AF as 1 day pregnant if this cycle is the one!

i like that!

@Peeonastick22 Aww that's nice way to think. Keep positive 💪hopefully this will be your cycle!

@Peeonastick22 🤔Didn't realise that. It was the first time I used the CB OPK (as just using the fitbit app didn't seem to work so well for the past 10 months). I don't know why I had it in my head that as soon as I had the peak, so must meant I ovulated that same day...

Will test again after the weekend and will keep you posted!😊

Definitely get a FRER to compare - some people don't get a positive at all until later on so wouldn't necessarily get a dye-stealer at 15DPO - I would be cautiously optimistic about that line 😊

@Mortima Actually I think I will test again after the weekend but will use the Superdrug for now (as they came in a pack of two) before I go and purchase more. All these tests really add up the cost 😅

@Kayycatt cant you technically ov 48hrs after positive opk?

you could only be 13dpo!!

cramps are normal in early pregnancy- keep us updated I have everything crossed for you!!

@Mortima I tested around 11dpo before but it was negative. This is the first time I am seeing a faint line. I will test again after the weekend. May actually get the FRER as I was holding off getting it as Superdrug was much cheaper 😅

Mortima · 14/10/2022 08:49

@Kayycatt definitely positive! It looks good to me, but I guess the progression is the important thing - is this the first day you've tested?

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 08:23

@Peeonastick22 thanks!

I got the peak with the clear blue Opk on the 29th last month.

I am still getting some cramps though, so keep thinking that AF will still arrive anytime soon...

Peeonastick22 · 14/10/2022 08:17

@Kayycatt that definitely looks positive! Congratulations!

do you know exactly when you ovulated or could you have ovulated later?

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 05:53

Still waiting for AF to hit so decided to do a test this morning. It's Superdrug, not sure how reliable they are. Is this positive? Also is the line too faint for 15 dpo to be pregnant?

@jmase so sorry to hear that, that is so shit, I hate tests giving false hope x

I know. I'm just pinning hope on the fact I haven't started my AF, at this point I just want to know if I am or just start my AF and get the next cycle on the go 😢

Just done the FRER. Don't think it could have been any more negative 😢

MillieKitty · 13/10/2022 18:51

@jmase I see a shadow! Have you got any frers in?

My partner is literally bringing me one now. Iv just got a feeling it will be negative. Them ones I have been doing are sensitive so I'd expect if I'm a day late it would be darker
