@Angelselevenx I hope all is ok and it's just dud tests. Let us know how you get on xxx

@Natty83 that's crazy! Are they easy@home ones? Congrats either way!!

@AlleycatMarie I agree, you hit one of the best days so definitely not out!

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 07:36

The photos below with the IC, top one was last night, second one was first thing this morning (strongest line) and 3/4 were 30 mins later after a coffee so weren't expecting them to be strong.

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 07:35

There is clear progression on my IC so but FRER has gone lighter than yesterdays, got an appt at the EPU this morning as I've had the spotting as well.

@Natty83 my FRER came back vvvf faint today but IC is a good positive. Not sure if I've had a chemical but so confused 😔

Natty83 · 05/04/2023 07:23

To everyone obsessing over progression on these tests, these were all dipped in the same pot - bfn on frer, so assumed all was lost, ic gave me the strongest line I've had yet, and then did a digital to try to work out which one was faulty 🤦‍♀️ Will be taking my own advice and stepping away from the pee sticks

Aww thanks @Natty83 and @Floralsandsmiles I hadn’t looked at it like that but you’re right; I am in the draw!!! Thanks for giving me hope ladies xxx

lottieb92 · 04/04/2023 14:58

thanks for adding me in again … 3DPO testing Easter Monday 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Which would be crazy early, I just know it’s the earliest I’d potentially see anything
The week is so far moving quickly let’s hope that continues 🙈

@AlleycatMarie 2 days before O is in that 2-day most fertile period, the sperm will have been waiting for your egg when it popped out - everything else is down to luck, you did everything you needed to. There's only 1 winning ticket and your ticket is in the draw. Completely understandable to be upset when things don't go to plan but you're in with as much chance this month as any other. Fingers crossed and baby dust to you 💐 xx

I would agree @AlleycatMarie ! Your ticket is in the draw!! Xxx

Hey @Natty83 thank you my lovely. Unfortunately yesterday and this morning didn’t happen. DH got cancelled and rescheduled to another that left early, which left him in a state and he’s rushed off to the airport so didn’t dtd. He feels awful and I’m trying to act like I’m cool with it but I’m really upset. It means we dtd 2 days before O and that is it.

I think spotting is quite normal in early pregnancy, so try not to worry (easier said than done I know). Your positive CB is a really good sign because they aren’t super sensitive xx

emmatcc1 · 04/04/2023 12:30

Not feeling hopeful here. I had really bad period like cramps in my uterus and lower back last night at 6 dpo. Implantation shouldn't be that painful right and it's early.

@Floralsandsmiles thank you 🤍. It could be!! You may have ovulated earlier or maybe you're implanting earlier! Every ones different don't forget 😊 xxx

I don't know, I defiantly got the Ovulation at peak... and I havent heard of anyone implanting at 4dpo.. so I think it's wishful thinking. 😬 😑🙁 xxxx

@Angelselevenx ahh that's good glad it's stopped

@Floralsandsmiles I think implantation bleeding can still go on for a few days which is why some ladies mistake it for their period. I would say it's too early could just be some normal stretching like pushing that egg along a bit 🤔

Aww OK, thank you @bringmearainbow . That's a shame, I was hoping xxx

@Floralsandsmiles they said it could be remanence of implantation bleeding as it's brown it's not new blood. Yeah I'm 14dpo today. It seems to have stopped for a little bit so fingers crossed it's stopped now, I'm peeing for England so no doubt I'll be going for another wee in half an hour so I'll check again then 🥲.

I had light stabbing/pinching feeling which I was convinced was implantation, I think that was 6dpo xx

Aww I'm sure it's completely fine darling @Angelselevenx 😘
Aww OK, so mine can't be implantation then as I'm too early and it's not 6dpo. Thats a shame, I was hoping that's what it was xxxx

This is good that they said not to worry and will get you for a scan early @Angelselevenx !
You say your 14dpo? So it's definitely not implantation?

I'm getting all kinds of weird feeling today. I'm 4dpo and feeling like stretching and like a light stabbing feeling in my left side. This is normally the ovary I feel ovulation from and docs said my most functioning ovary... however its too early for implantation right? Xxx

OP posts:
Angelselevenx · 04/04/2023 12:13

@bringmearainbow I was this morning, but it seems to have stopped for a little bit 🤞🏼 so I'll see if it comes back tonight or if it's stopped completely now.

bringmearainbow · 04/04/2023 12:11

@Angelselevenx ahhh that's great they will get you in for an early scan. Are you still spotting today?

@Seasidegirll I've been pregnant 3 times and it was only my 3rd one I had heartburn at 6DPO the rest of them I had no unusual symptoms at all. I think I'll test on Saturday even though it's very likely BFN because it will only be 8dpo 🙈

Angelselevenx · 04/04/2023 12:05

@Natty83 same as me then, spotting when due on! Honestly I've non stopped googled but it's so so common, keep an eye on it though. Brown is just old blood coming out most of the time 🤞🏼 keep me updated x

Natty83 · 04/04/2023 12:03

@Angelselevenx oh that's great news, and a massive bonus if you can get a scan from them at 6 weeks. I had a private scan at 7 weeks with my DS and it helped so much with my anxiety over it (we were trying for years and I had it my head it would never happen).

I'm still spotting but it was brown just now whereas it was pink this morning so that seems good? My app said I was due Sunday but it does tend to just guess me at 22 days when in reality my cycle can be anywhere from 21-24 so maybe I was actually due to have a longer cycle (24) this time and was due today too x

Angelselevenx · 04/04/2023 11:43

@Natty83 how you doing? are you still spotting?

Spoke to EPU earlier and they aren't concerned at this stage, because it came on my period due date and it's brown they aren't worried. Said they'd get me in for a scan but no point as they wouldn't see anything yet anyway and that would make me worry. Said to ring back next week and I can go in for a scan as I'd be 6 weeks x

Ah thanks for new thread @Floralsandsmiles!! ❤️

So many BFP! 🎉 what a great start to this new thread!

Im currently 8/9dpo and time is going weirdly quickly! I’ve tried really hard this cycle to block out any symptoms and just carry on as normal. I had SO many positive symptoms last cycle, I was convinced I was pregnant, so when AF finally arrived I was absolutely gutted. I don’t think I’m going to test early this time, I’m getting absolutely sick of seeing BFN all the time. AF is due either Sunday or Monday so I’m going to try and hold out until Monday 🤞🏻How’s everyone else getting on? Who’s next to test?

Aww I feel you darling @Seasidegirll ! I was convinced in my last cycle and was devasted. This time I'm trying to get along with things and put it out of my head... xxx
