1DPO and starting the TWW - who's with me?

XenaTheWarriorPrincess · 19/05/2023 18:09

Third cycle ttc #1, 2nd cycle using opks.

Ovulated yesterday (peak on Wednesday) and dtd Wednesday night.

I've got 23-25 day cycles and seem to have a 11 day luteal phase, so due on the 30th.

Anyone else around the same dpo wanting to ride the tww out together?

Hoping to hold off on testing until I'm 10dpo at the earliest, but we'll see.

Gearing up for the symptom spotting to begin in a week or so, even though I know I shouldn't.

@Orangenightie hey, if you check my recent post on this thread where I post a photo, that's an evap line. They can be very convincing x

Aw ok, thank you x

winterbabyrose · 05/06/2023 08:50

Mine was no more than 1 min after the time frame, so they can come up quick

Hey @Orangenightie Evaps come up after the time you're supposed to read the test. Indents can come up in the time frame but are usually colourless.

On blue dye tests they can have colour but are usually thinner than the control line.

Best way to know is to take another test of a different brand (but same sensitivity).

Hey! Can I ask what evap/indent lines look
like? How can you tell?

Hellsbells89 · 04/06/2023 22:56

@Pastaf0rbreakfast congratulations 🥰 by the way if you're on Facebook I've set up a group for Feb babies if you're interested.

@Pastaf0rbreakfast Hahaha it's so funny he had an inkling! 🥰 Really exciting, hope it sinks in soon!

I feel like the next cycle is going to be a positive one for others too. I've noticed there haven't been many BFPs on any of the threads this month 🤔 onwards and upwards!! ❤️ We've got this - thank you for the good vibes!

Pastaf0rbreakfast · 04/06/2023 17:43

Thank you @XenaTheWarriorPrincess @LeopardLover @winterbabyrose doesn’t feel real yet!

My OH wasn’t particularly surprised actually @LeopardLover he said I had been a bit tetchy over the last few days which apparently happened last pregnancy too 😂

Sorry we haven’t had more bfps on this thread, I hope everyone gets good news next cycle. Thank you all for being such a supportive bunch ☺️

winterbabyrose · 04/06/2023 12:02

@Pastaf0rbreakfast congratulations lovely!!!

@XenaTheWarriorPrincess you were right, AF arrived with force this morning!

Oh well, on to the next cycle!

@Pastaf0rbreakfast Oh wow! Such wonderful news 😁 Try not to feel guilty, you weren't to know and it won't do any harm ❤️ how did your OH take the news? X

Pastaf0rbreakfast · 04/06/2023 07:40

So after pretty much daily BFNs since about 8dpo…

13dpo today and definitely an example of not being out until AF shows up!

Feeling a bit guilty about having a glass of wine after 12dpo bfn yesterday 😬

@ddaisynner Ah man, what is going on!! Maybe test Monday if you can wait 👀 @XenaTheWarriorPrincess Ah didn't know that about blue dye tests. Hope a pink dye one confirms things @winterbabyrose 💜

@winterbabyrose I'd be real suspicious about the thickness of line, personally. Blue dye tests can be awful for evaps, I'd recommend trying a pink dye test

ddaisynner · 03/06/2023 08:35

@LeopardLover I'm due tomorrow as well usually I feel pressure and cramps but haven't got any sign its coming. I think my hormones are in wack lol

LeopardLover · 03/06/2023 08:17

@ddaisynner Oh I'm so sorry, that's soooo strange! It was such a clear line. 🤔 Was AF due today? Sending loads of love!! I'm due on tomorrow but it'll be soon, I can feel it coming!

LeopardLover · 03/06/2023 08:15

@winterbabyrose EEEK! Your cramps were early pregnancy cramps. That line is undeniable! Congratulations!

ddaisynner · 03/06/2023 08:03

@winterbabyrose I can defo see a line congratulations 🎊 👏 ild probably do another one in a couple days I try to stay away from blue lines myself as I can never tell lol 😆

I ended up having brown discharge yesterday, still no sign of af. 13dpo today and still bfn strip fmw same time as the others only thing I can think of is on Tuesday I hardly drank as ran out of coke 🙃 and had kickboxing so that wee on the Wednesday morning was super concentrated. Bit you would think ild have even a faint squinter 🤣 I still think it was a false positive because even with a chemical the last one I had the line slowly got fainter rather than disappeared altogether. Hopefully af turns up tomorrow so I can start counting again for 0 lol 😆

Goodluck everyone hopefully some good news to follow 🤞🤞

winterbabyrose · 03/06/2023 06:44

Does this look like an indent/Evap line? I can see something there but it's super thin and light

Oh @ddaisynner I'm so sorry. That definitely seemed like a positive test, not an indent or evap, so if they've gone negative now it sounds like it could have been chemical.

@winterbabyrose implantation can happen 6-12dpo so 11dpo isn't too late :) ttc can mess with you a bit though and symptoms suddenly appear that you'd never noticed or had before. Wait 48 hours then start testing with sentive tests (could take longer to get a positive but 2 days is usually the minimum).

@ddaisynner sending love, how confusing after those dark lines!

I was sure yesterday morning I was out for this month, as BFNs on the early tests at 11dpo, but got bad period cramps yesterday for a few hours. 12dpo today and nothing since. I never get cramps before AF, only ever on days 1 and 2 of AF. So rather confused. AF not due until Monday and no signs of it blood wise, not even a speck. So I have no clue what's going on.

Is there a chance they could be implantation cramps yesterday? Would 11dpo be too late for implantation?

LeopardLover · 02/06/2023 09:34

@ddaisynner Oh no! 😔 Your line definitely wasn't an indent. The early digital might still be too early? Did you use the same type of test again at the same time of day? Sending love!

ddaisynner · 02/06/2023 06:53

Unfortunately I think my test was a faulty one. Tested again this morning stark white strip and early digital bfn. It's a bit disheartening after seeing those lines on Wednesday but hey go. 12 dpo today, also had a random wipe of pink discharge last night. I do spot sometimes before a period so I guess I'll await af on Sunday 😅😪

LeopardLover · 01/06/2023 18:59

winterbabyrose · 01/06/2023 09:38

Think I am probably out for this month. 11dpo today and absolutely stark white on all tests, even the early Boots and CB ones this morning. AF is due Monday, so would have expected to even see a hint of a line by now, but nothing!

Ugh, I'm sorry! Monday is still a way away, so there is a chance you ovulated late and HCG hasn't risen yet. Sending hugs!
