Little update with the FRER I just done, still finding it ultra hard to believe after getting a VF line on a cheapy the last few days🫣

Yay @ukMummyof1! This is amazing!!! Congratulations 🎊 xxxx

Morning ladies, so it’s CD19 for me today & I have another follicle tracking scan. Last week we could see one was growing but no ‘dominant’ follicles. Please keep everything crossed for me as our last round failed 🤞🏼

When I conceived with my daughter there was nothing to be seen until CD19 so im remaining very positive that this could be our time 🫶🏼

OPKs all low but this one I’ve just done seems darker, what do you think? On it’s way?

CM lots of it, slightly creamy but watery.

🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

That’s a good idea. Fingers crossed 🤞
I agree digital would show probably 1+ weeks then in a weeks time it would be quite reassuring to see 2-3 or 3+.
i can only imagine how nervous you are I would be exactly the same after mmc last summer.
feel so so sicky ( and I’m not sicky person at all) the last couple of days which makes me feel so positive about this month, however it would be far too early… trying to be realistic and not look into it too much x

buckingmad · 20/02/2023 12:16

@ukMummyof1 my tests were so faint but the digital still picked it up and said positive.

ukMummyof1 · 20/02/2023 12:12

They look soo light in person, feeling nauseous but I'm not having much hope... I don't even think it would come up on a digital yet😕
I think I'm going to get some FRER today and I'll do one tomorrow and one 48 hours after and see if there's any progression, ill probably also buy a digital too just in case🤞

Good idea honey! Xxx

@ukMummyof1 good morning,
the bottom one does look slightly darker ?
Why don’t you try digital and then after a week see if it changes to more weeks ?fingers crossed everything is going to be ok xx

Agreed @ukMummyof1, I think the bottom is darker. Do a digital! Xxx

So after I got my positive on Saturday I waited 48 hours to test again and have just tested and I don't think it's got any darker, could I be having a chemical?? 😥

Thank you everyone!

@Ttcsecond so sorry to hear about your chemical, keep us updated! Xx

Hello ladies,
hope you don’t mind me joining in.
congratulations on your BFP @ukMummyof1 :)
im currently 3-5dpo ( since Mmc last summer my cycles slightly vary), so impatient to find out as this would be my due date month :(
hope we have some more BFP this month and keep positive:)

Ttcsecond · 18/02/2023 18:59

@ukMummyof1
fingers crossed for you for the 6 week scan and that the lines get darker.
I’m not sure when AF is due to be honest. My chemical last month changed my cycle so I didn’t get a positive OPK until CD 20 which was Wednesday (15th). Will test next weekend X

ukMummyof1 · 18/02/2023 17:28

@Floralsandsmiles thank you so much! Got a lot of nerves obviously but hopefully once placement is checked I can calm down a bit! DP and I are still unsure if we can even count it as a line because of how faint it is so I'll update in the next few days❤️

Of course @ukMummyof1 , it's smart to be cautious. Crossing my fingers for you! Please keep us updated! Xxx

@Ttcsecond thank you! I've got lots of cheapies still so will test over the next few days. I'm going to try In a few days to see about getting a 6 week scan to check the placement and hopefully everything will be okay🤞
When are you due on af?

Floralsandsmiles · 18/02/2023 10:53

Yay @ukMummyof1 that's a great line for 11DPO! This is great 👍 tentative congratulations! Get an early scan booked due to past issues and piece of mind (really sorry to hear for this pain you have been through). Xxx

Ttcsecond · 18/02/2023 10:04

@ukMummyof1 Firstly congratulations, I wouldn’t say that isn’t a faint line for 11DPO! Different pregnancies will have different HCG levels. Maybe do a another test in a few days to check the line is getting darker.
Secondly don’t stress about the drinks last night, I’m sure it won’t have done at harm at this stage.
Thirdly, sorry to hear about your ectopic pregnancy. It won’t do any harm having an early scan if it helps with your anxiety about the pregnancy. Best of luck xx

Decided after all to go out last night after debating it and had a negative test yesterday morning and last night before I went.
This morning at 11dpo I think I have a vf line😁
Can anyone see it? Just really worrying now because I had a few drinks last night thinking this wasn't my month as this is a lot later getting a positive than my last pregnancy.

My last pregnancy was ectopic and I had the surgery to remove my tube, what do I do now? Should I be contacting the hospital for an early scan?? Xx

@ukMummyof1 for my first I monitored EWCM, LH tests and BBT. At the moment I’m just checking EWCM And LH.

i went back and looked at my test and could see a really faint line. Any one know if CB are bad for indents? It did have colour too it so I’m hopeful! Will test again tomorrow morning or Sunday

ukMummyof1 · 17/02/2023 10:12

@buckingmad that's really good to know! Do you test for ovulation or go off of EWCM/app?

@redo18 just had a look at that link. That's really helpful, thank you! May still be time yet... although, I don't have any symptoms apart from headaches yesterday so think this may not be my month xx

I got a BFN at 8dpo. Going to wait until Monday 11dpo!

For anyone interested this link shows your likely you are to get a positive result at each day post ovulation

www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=8

Low at 8dpo!

buckingmad · 17/02/2023 07:51

@ukMummyof1 im same as you. Stark white at 10dpo. AF due on Tuesday. Think I’m just going to wait now. When I was pregnant with my first i tested around now and got a negative so waited for my period which never came and then got a positive at 16dpo.
