@Babydust99 I'm hoping yours is an actual line obviously just thought I'd share in case. Keep testing! I have my fingers crossed for you

Thanks, it's so faint I don't think so but just really confused me as I've never had that with a frer before. Going to assume it's negative but retest in a couple of days just to be sure

This is my evap line from last month. I was convinced it was an actual line because there was a hint of pink in it at the edges but it was definitely an evap. This was on a frer which I took apart. Just for reference for anyone.

This is month two where I have been floored with a nasty cold during the tww and I'm freaking miserable. Happy New year!! What's everyone's feelings on cold and flu meds at this time? I need relief!!

Thank you, this iss really helpful as that is what mine looks like

Convinced myself I'm having another chemical, tests just seemed so much fainter yesterday waiting for tests to arrive from Amazon, as should see a darker line today if not chemical but I'm 99% sure this isn't going the way I want it too

Babydust99 · 31/12/2022 13:19

It's grey but it was there immediately, I thought evaps were only after the timeframe. Anyone else who has posted really early ones have been grey lines to start with so think I'm just going to have to retest in a couple of days to know for sure. I only tested to see if I could have a drink tonight so don't know what to do now 🤦🏼‍♀️

Bluemilan · 31/12/2022 13:14

@bubblebab that sounds promising!! Might be implantation bleeding! Test again tomorrow 💕

@Babydust99 I can see something but I'm not sure if there's any colour to it. If it's grey in real life it's an evap x

Babydust99 · 31/12/2022 12:26

Can anyone see my line? Me and my dp can see a super faint line but don't know if it's a real line starting or an indent/evap 🙈

@Nelliepledge - congratulations! Hope it's a sticky little bean!

I had pink spotting when I wiped yesterday with some cramps. Only lasted an hour, which hadn't happened before 🤷🏻‍♀️ BFN on IC today

Nelliepledge · 31/12/2022 08:15

It's still early you're not out yet! I have everything crossed for you, sending love ❤️ xxx

Bluemilan · 31/12/2022 07:47

@Nelliepledge so happy for you!!

10 dpo and bfn on cheapies this morning. Fairly sure I'm out this cycle!

Nelliepledge · 31/12/2022 07:29

Thank you for the validation my other half was like 🤨🤨🤣 af due Tuesday so everything crossed!! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

Bluemilan · 31/12/2022 07:02

@Nelliepledge I see it!!! How many dpo are you? Congratulations xxxx

Nelliepledge · 31/12/2022 06:28

Am I being crazy and seeing something that's not there?

Hi everyone,

totally get the TTW turning you into a lunatic - I feel absolutely obsessed. I took an ultra early digital middle of the day today at 10dpo and it was ‘not pregnant’ so now I am pretty sure that’s me out - even though it wasn’t first morning wee and my last BFP wasn’t until day AF was due - still just feel so unhopeful as so many lucky people seem to get a BFP around now!

I stare at tests like I can magic a line too 😂

bubblebab · 30/12/2022 16:54

I think AF is now starting 😥 I've got cramps and light pink spotting - it hasn't usually started like this (bleeding usually starts heavy red) but cramps feel the same 💔

bubblebab · 30/12/2022 15:11

@Bluemilan - I've never tracked ovulation so I have no idea. My cycles aren't regular either but I FEEL like it should have started by now.

Im terrible with tests- I'll turn the negative colours on my phone and stare at the test picture like I can magically change it to a BFP 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Bluemilan · 30/12/2022 14:34

@bubblebab glad I'm not in it alone!! The thing is I know it's absolutely ridiculous but I just can't help it. I then stare at the glaringly obvious bfn until I think I can see a shadow and then obsess over it until I talk sense into myself.

Those symptoms sound good!! Fingers crossed this is it for you this month! How many dpo are you?

bubblebab · 30/12/2022 14:31

@Bluemilan I did 3 ICs yesterday just "incase" it's driving me mad. But I physically can't stop myself!
I've had left sided cramping on 1 random evening, gassy, retching in the mornings (I had HG Last pregnancy) and TMI but feeling constantly wet- which I did with my DS. But it makes me so paranoid AF is going to appear!
Constantly running to the loo to check it's not AF- then everytime im in the loo I have this voice in my head going "take a test you know you want to!" 😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Bluemilan · 30/12/2022 14:28

@bubblebab exactly that!! I've been having cramping (which never happens until night before AF), really windy, insomnia, everything stinks , going to the toilet about three times a day when usually it's just the morning! and boobs are a little bit heavier. But it's probably all in my head!! TTC really turns me into a lunatic. Just saw someone got a BFP in the afternoon on an IC so just did another one, bfn obviously.

bubblebab · 30/12/2022 14:21

@Bluemilan ohhh! Thank you. That's what I've been using but didn't know it was a abbreviation on here.
I've been having loads of "symptoms" too that were same as my last pregnancy. But I'm gonna feel like an idiot if I was overthinking it 😂

Bluemilan · 30/12/2022 13:46

@bubblebab internet cheapie!
I'd convinced myself that I'd gotten previous BFP around about now, but just checked posts under my previous name and they were all around just the day before AF was due so thinking I'm probably testing it too early but just can't help myself! I've convinced myself of loads of symptoms that probably aren't even real anyway! 😅

bubblebab · 30/12/2022 13:43

@Bluemilan - I can never help myself testing way too early too 🙄
What's a IC?

Bluemilan · 30/12/2022 10:48

9dpo, negative IC and FRER. Not sure what I expected really 🙃

Bluemilan · 29/12/2022 20:11

Sorry to hear about the BFN @Teaplease29 . Perhaps a reasonable person would suggest waiting until closer to when AF is due. I’m not reasonable though, I’ve tested twice today at 8dpo 😂 I’m planning on using IC’s each morning as I wasted a FRER today and now I’m annoyed at myself lol
