10dpo... obviously I started out telling myself I wouldn't test but we all know how that goes. I'm still confused, never had even a hint of a positive this early. However after my chemical last month I've not said a word to my partner and probably won't until next weekend for a whole heap of reasons. Anyways here's what it looked like this morning, still faint, but definitely there and definitely has colour to it. I'm just trying to keep my head level atm... though obviously that's not really working.

@MandyCee yeah you should be able to take an frer or ultra early cb up to 6 days before af but the farther away from afs due date you test the less reliable the result. 9dpo is still v early but if your symptoms are pregnancy related then i think it'd show on the tests? It can be very hard not to, but symptom spotting is such a minefield. We ttcd for nearly a year and I had different "symptoms" every month. The one we conceived in i had none (or i just stopped watching 🤷🏽‍♀️) may i ask if youve begun any investigations?

Hey all..I'm 9DPO today and have been TTC for 2.5 years. In that space of time I've had 3 miscarriages which is unfortunate but I believe everything happens for a reason. Now I have tender breasts, darker areoles, twinges in my nipples, cramps in my lower stomach, nausea, light headedness and I am SO moody. I took a test today & it was a BFN. My FLO app says my period is due in 6 days and I can test in 12 but the clear blue website says I can test tomorrow with an. ultra early detection test. Has this happened to anyone else? Did anyone else get their BFP? I've been desperate for this BFP and I feel like I may be imagining all of the symptoms.

Congrats on all the bfp’s!
hope to see more of you on the November babies thread 👶🏼

Fairylight102 · 17/03/2023 19:56

@uop21 Yes we did the test together.

We’re really pleased and hopeful that all will go will this time.

uop21 · 17/03/2023 19:00

@NatGee thank you, I've had a cuddle and a cry to my husband and we're now looking forward to the next few weeks, how are you getting on? ❤️

@Fairylight102 thank you, have you told your partner? You both must be so thrilled ❤️

Fairylight102 · 17/03/2023 18:45

@uop21 So sorry to hear that. Thinking of you x

Mushroo · 17/03/2023 18:24

@NatGee thank you! Honestly I peed on so many sticks last month I’m trying not to test too early 😂

NatGee · 17/03/2023 18:03

@Mushroo sounds promising!! Let us know how you get on, I think i wouldnt be able to wait that long

@uop21 sorry to hear :( you're one month closer to your bfp xxx

Congratulations to everyone who has had BFPs the last couple of days.

I also got a positive last night and then again this morning to confirm 🥳

@uop21 I know I said I wasn’t going to bother with testing early this month but for some reason yesterday I just got a feeling that I wanted to. Fingers crossed for you in a few days time!

Oh my goodness that's amazing, I'm so happy for you ❤️

Unfortunately AF showed up Wednesday morning for me - 4 days early, unexpected but it is what it is so another month of trying for me.

Mushroo · 17/03/2023 17:32

NatGee · 17/03/2023 17:13

@Fairylight102 congratulations! such good news, I see you on the November due thread, so good to see more of you moving over

Hopefully there will be more to come

Anyone testing this weekend?

Me I think! I had bleeding yesterday which I assumed was AF arriving early, but it seems to have stopped so now hoping it was implantation bleeding.

Going to see what happens tomorrow and I might test Sunday or Monday!

NatGee · 17/03/2023 17:15

@JD90 congratulations! those are lovely lines, and so early too, hope it progresses well :)

@JD90 hopefully it carries on getting darker 🤞🏻 just done a clear blue digital with fmu from this morning and it's come up as 1-2 weeks so 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I was exhausted between about 4-10 dpo so hoping it's a good sign for you too! Your test looks promising!

@RegardingPersephone thank you. I'll keep tracking them and see how I get on. There's a definite line on the bottom one!

@uop21 hoping they get darker 🤞🏻

@Mummyme87 thank you. 🙂 hoping this cycle is the one for you!

@Sierra26 thank you! Let's hope they get darker over the next few days

@Fairylight102 congratulations!

Woweee @hopeandpray1988 those are great lines!

@RegardingPersephone and @JD90 i see lines in yours too! Keeping fingers crossed for progression xx

ps @JD90 i had a proper giggle at your reaction 🤣

I'm genuinely just fucking baffled by the whole thing! I mean seriously, 9dpo on a normal test?! The math ain't mathin 🤣 though I know it can actually be possible I'm just confused right now.

Mummyme87 · 17/03/2023 11:19

Definitely see a line @JD90 give it a couple of days and fingers Crossed it’s nice and bright!

@RegardingPersephone can definitely see a line!!

@hopeandpray1988 good line progression! Congratulations

CD1 of cycle 21 (or 22, not even sure now).

JD90 · 17/03/2023 10:47

So for some reason I failed miserably and waiting (I'm guessing because I feel so horrible atm and just figured at least it would make me stop stressing a couple of days) and did a test. 9dpo, not fmu, why on earth would there be anything at all there... erm excuse me?! What the actual fuck is that!! Absolutely not thinking it's an actual positive but seriously what the hell?!

This is the line progression of the cheaper tests. I'm waiting on some first response tests to come today so I can check progression on those too. Feeling very anxious.

Oh bless you. These are very clear progression lines. Many congratulations to you ❤️

RegardingPersephone · 17/03/2023 08:54

Hi all!

@hopeandpray1988 those are some very definite positives and good looking progression!

I had a very very faint line today I think? It is the one on the bottom of the image. Going to be testing like crazy now to confirm over the next few days. Partner is sure I'm not pregnant this time round so might be in for a shock! Don't want to get his hopes up yet though...

JD90 · 17/03/2023 08:46

@hophopeandpray1988 there is definitely progression there.

I'm just hanging around waiting to see what happens. 9dpo today, don't have any of my usual pms symptoms that i would have by now (utter rage, super sore boobs, nausea) however I got super sore boobs with both my ectopic and my chemical so I'm not really sure. I'm just so unspeakably and horrendously tired the last 3 days, I've been in bed as soon as I get home from work and spend my entire day off in bed too. I'm also suuuuuper hungry which is really weird for me. I'm currently just assuming that it's down to a change in my stress levels that have been sky high for months and now dropped. Gonna see how I'm feeling over the weekend and try not to test lol

Checking in, been a bit quiet as nothing was really happening!

I should be due next week around weds, but had spotting today.

Now torn whether I ovulated a lot earlier than I thought, or it’s implantation bleeding. It’s a case of wait and see but it’s so frustrating!

hopeandpray1988 · 16/03/2023 21:46

@Mummyme87 I had brown discharge when ttc DS. It was implantation bleeding - I'm praying it's the same for you. Xx
