@CatLadyH oh wow congrats! So happy for you!

cdn298 · 27/05/2023 13:28

@CatLadyH congratulations!!

Bfn for me again today 😫

CatLadyH · 27/05/2023 13:27

Tested today Premom and clear blue digital both positive 🤩 think I am 4 weeks 4 days.

Ladyinpink1 · 27/05/2023 09:46

I am definitely out, so waiting on AF now, should be Monday I think, and then onto the next cycle. Hoping for a March baby now 🙂

Sorry about the bfn so far, hoping it's too early for tests and that changes soon for you guys 💜 xo

I tested today and it’s negative. Hopefully that changes tomorrow.

Sorry to hear this. Me too. Fingers crossed for us both tomorrow.

I think one or two drinks is fine!

@cdn298 I think a couple of drinks wouldn’t do any harm. I knew a girl on here who thought she was out and drank a whole bottle of wine and got a positive the next day and her pregnancy is fine.

@emmatcc1 yeah 8dpo today.
What would you do.. so we're away this weekend with friends and the kids. If I test tomorrow and it's still bfn do I still have a couple of drinks or would it be best not to? I would only be having 2 anyway because my son will be there but is it worth the risk? X

Favofit · 26/05/2023 10:33

6DPO (predicted) today, I probably need to wait until at least Monday . But I'm not sure if I can be that patient

@cdn298 it’s still very early days I think we’re both 8 dpo today?

cdn298 · 26/05/2023 10:28

I tested today.. bfn! Will be testing tomorrow as well as we're away for the weekend with friends x

I’m very tempted to test right now but I’m gonna try and wait until tomorrow. Anyone else testing tomorrow?

OP posts:
hopefulsquirrel · 25/05/2023 21:22

@Bailem i did the same, I wish I had more self control!

@Ladyinpink1 keeping busy although I worry I am also stressing myself out with things which maybe isn’t helping (trying to buy a house at the mo)

@cdn298 I have definitely heard that bleeding gums can be a sign, fingers crossed for you!

Bailem · 25/05/2023 21:17

8dpo, tested this morning, why oh why? Because I knew it'd be a BFN. I've never even been tempted to test super early until this cycle!
I've had really light cramping last night and today. I'm also wired but tired at the same time, so odd! I'm totally symptom spotting already 🙈

cdn298 · 25/05/2023 20:13

I'm driving myself mad symptom spotting 😫😫
I'm 7 dpo had sore boobs 2 days ago but that seems to have stopped.. then today I have had a tiny bit of spotting and my gums just randomly bled which is very weird!! My gums literally never bleed..

Hrps · 25/05/2023 19:57

Most likely going to test and torture but I'm already pretty damn sure. I can't quite describe it, but I don't feel pregnant at the moment, my boobs aren't sore, I've got no other symptoms and I'm quite sensitive to hormonal changes normally. Oh well youre never out till Flo's here, but I don't think this one is the one for me

Ladyinpink1 · 25/05/2023 18:46

@Amuseaboosh Thank you, and keep us updated on how you get on 🙂 x

@Hrps I understand, I got my last bfp quite early at 8dpo too, and I am 8dpo today but there wasn't even a hint of a line. I will prob continue to test and torture myself though until AF arrives lol. Will you? x

@inthewest That's great! Hoping this is your bfp 🙂 Keep us updated when you test again. I use 2 different types of ic... one step and clinical guard, both very reliable in my experience. x

@emmatcc1 I am ok, had work then a sick dc so been quite busy until now which is good 🙂 how do you feel? x

@hopefulsquirrel Still early, I read threads all the time where 12 and 13dpo are a common time for bfp. Are you managing to keep busy? x

hopefulsquirrel · 25/05/2023 12:15

I’m 10 DPO and still testing negative but it’s early days I guess.

@inthewest I use the onestep strips.

How is everyone doing today?

Yep, with FMU. Still BFN - just with Amazon cheapies. I have ordered a couple of FRERs though.

I know I should wait until AF is late but I have no patience.

Really got my hopes up last month when AF was 2 days late. Was bit brutal when it arrived

Show quote history

I'm the same! At this point, I'm tempted to ask my husband to escort me to the loo in the mornings! We found out about our first pregnancy (sadly lost it) quite early as it was my birthday and I was on the fence about having a glass of prosecco that evening.

inthewest · 25/05/2023 08:09

What tests does everyone use? I'm 10dpo and took an early test this morning. There was a faint line so I'm hopeful... but I had a missed miscarriage 11 weeks ago and it took a while for my hcg to go down. Part of me wants to be excited, the other part of me thinks it's just a false positive picking up on leftover hormones.

Has anyone had this happen before? I took a clear blue, but haven't used one since I became pregnant the first time. The faint line appeared in the first 5 minutes of testing.

I'm really hopeful... it's my huband's birthday tomorrow so I'm hoping a line will be a bit stronger.

@Hrps I agree 8 dpo is very early. Implantation usually happens on day8-9.

Sorry to hear about the BFN @Hrps. 8 DPO is still really early though.
