TTC October baby 🍁🎃👻

@JD90 looks like a definite positive to me! Keeping everything crossed that things go smoothly for you this time around!

@Natty83 sending you baby dust for November!

@B93 not had implantation bleeding myself but I had a friend who had two big bleeds in pregnancy, she thought it was AF and now has a lovely 6 year old, and she's a GP!

@JD90I couldn't find FRERs in any supermarkets or chemists at the weekend, just CBs everywhere! I ordered FRERs from Amazon but while I was waiting for them had two days of CBs which is frustrating as I'm not comparing like with like so can't see the progression. Yes I know I sound like a POAS addict....which I suppose I am at this point.
Did a digital for the first time this morning and it was really satisfying to see "Pregnant 1-2 weeks". I'm planning to take them weekly to hopefully see progression that way too.
POAS gives you a sense of control and knowledge, doesn't it?!

@Natty83 ah that's poop, sorry to hear that. As Dory would say 'just keep swimming' 😪

@LuckyYou13 yeah the whole thing was a literal whirlwind, it all happened so quickly I didn't even start to process it until about 2 weeks post op! I'm now just so scared of it happening again and ending up losing the tube I have left. I did just stick all the cheapies together in time order and there does seem to be progression (though obviously I know post the ten minutes you aren't supposed to read a result). I couldn't get a FRER on way to work so stupidly wasted money on a CB but that also seemed to have a faint positive on it.

@B93 sorry to hear about your loss 😪 as for implantation bleeding, I don't actually know anyone who has had it, but you do see it spoken about an awful lot!

I'm out for October, AF showed up today. Good luck to everyone still testing and waiting ❤️

@JD90 I can see that line really clearly! Congrats and wishing you a happy and healthy nine months 💐

@JD90 I see the line clearly. I didn't know you got indents on those cheapy tests but i could be wrong. Sounds like you had a fainter line the day before which suggests progression. Keeping my fingers crossed for a clearer bfp for you tomorrow. I am sorry to hear about your ruptured ectopic, that must have been such a scary experience, I think it's so normal for you to be feeling all the feelings, I hope some early blood tests will alleviate a little anxiety for you.

@JD90 sorry my earlier post said error but then posted both 🙈

Been TTC a year in March. We actually conceived in April but ended in early miscarriage end of May beginning of June.

@JD90 sorry for what you have been through. Keep us posted on your FRER 🤞🏼

I am 14dpo today. BFN yesterday. Started spotting yesterday afternoon so expecting AF. I usually spot before AF but I have also bled in all previous pregnancy - including with my DD so it’s not anything to go by. Out of interest has anyone actually experienced implantation bleeding? Not thinking it is but apparently very few people actually experience this 🤷🏼‍♀️

@B93 you aren't out until you're out though. I keep reminding myself every month that with my daughter I didn't even get a faint until almost a week after AF was due. It does just get so disheartening though. How long have you been ttc?

@JD90 i’m sorry about what you have been through. Ttc is not easy. I am 14dpo so similar. I was feeling hopeful until my bfn yesterday. Just awaiting AF now

@2021lady it's horrid isn't it. Just feels never ending. It seems like all through school and when you're really young everyone acts as if even touching another human without adequate protection is gonna get you pregnant but in reality it's just not!

Cycle day 1 here. I hate ttc 💔💔

@JD90 i can see the line and it looks positive, hope you get a nice clear line on the frer too! Good luck x

@Hankthehonk thanks, I think at this point I'm maybe trying to convince myself it's just an evap to avoid disappointment. You see so many people getting strong positives by 13dpo and my ectopic started out exactly the same at around 12/13 with such faint lines and not much progression so it's always in the back of my mind that if it is positive my levels are too low again and it's going to go badly. Don't you just love the way brains work... 🤦🏻‍♀️

@JD90 I can easily see the line, looks positive to me! Definitely get a FRER.
I'm sorry about what you went through before, it's totally normal to feel anxious. I hope you see a good line on the Frer and you're able to feel a bit excited too

@B93 13dpo. Ngl I'm petrified, had a ruptured ectopic start of Oct 22. Gonna get a frer on my way to work, I know I should wait until tomorrow to do it but my anxiety it HIGH. I know my gp wants to/ask epau to monitor my bloods from as soon as possible but the fear of going through it all again is something else. Despite knowing it's still quite unlikely. 😕

@JD90 I’m wide awake too. I can see the line. How many dpo?

Awake at 4am as usual... decided to test as I needed to pee. There is a line (easy to see with the naked eye, not so much on photo) more so that yesterday morning but thinking it could be an evap/indent 😕 opinions??

I’m in the same boat, solidarity! It’s crap

@2021lady this was me in September l, my cycle was 45 days total. I called the gp and they had blood and hormone tests done, as well as sending a sample away, typically I peed in the pop, dropped it off, got home and af arrived. A week later they called me back to say everything was normal and satisfactory. Literally just a freak long cycle and told me to carry on trying 🤦‍♀️ helpful.

15dpo
No period
No positive test
I'm just wondering when af will show as I'm sure if I was pregnant it would have detected by now
I hate these waiting games

@buckingmad it's always tough though because you're sat waiting and you notice things more. Every little twinge and pull and niggle. I wish there was a way to switch your brain off for 2 weeks every month 🤣

6dpo and I’ve had very dull feeling cramps all morning. Trying not to think anything of it!

@LuckyYou13 I ended up testing and a big fat negative 😔 I am going to hold out until the weekend now, that’s if AF doesn’t arrive before then.

I don’t usually ovulate until CD 18-20 so could be only 9dpo if I ovulated on CD20. But had symptoms to suggest I ovulated around CD16 🤪. I have started logging every single symptom this cycle - that way I if I get the same symptoms next cycle I knew it happened previously.

Fingers crossed you get your bfp this cycle 🤞🏼

I’m out! A few hours after negative pregnancy test AF started. At least it’s a few days early and not late. That would have been annoying. It would have been very lucky for month 1 of trying. Maybe for the best as was starting to think we should have put it off for a bit. We’ll start trying again in a few months.

Best of luck to all of you! 😊
