Hi guys, just looking for some cycle buddies. This will be our 3rd cycle hoping for that BFP 🤞. I think I'm either ovulating today or 1dpo... I got my darkest opk yesterday morning (CD13) but we had my sons birthday trip away camping so I wasn't able to repeat the test to see if I got my peak in the evening. I'm presuming I would have. I haven't had a temp rise yet, so I think I'll get one tomorrow if I ovulated today. It's all a bit confusing 😅. Anyway, it'd be cool to have someone to wait with!

@Pinkmoon23 oh noo that sounds so stressful! I don't even really know what you can do other than wait and see?

Hope you are feeling ok xx

This mornings test was lighter than yesterdays ☹️ my urine wasn't as concentrated as yesterday evening but I'm thinking by now it should be blazing. Blah 😔

1dpo, anyone else? 😊

@pinkandredflowers aw thank you for double checking for me! I wonder if that is the case with the 2nd temp spike! I guess that would make sense as to why my tests are so faint. We dtd 2 days before this temp spike too... Hmmmm!!

pinkandredflowers · 11/06/2023 21:05

@Pinkmoon23 reviewed your charts 🤓. I wonder if your temp spike on 31st was actual ov? Then you'd be 12 DPO today and that would be a v good line!

pinkandredflowers · 11/06/2023 21:01

@Pinkmoon23 that's REALLY good progression from yday. I reckon you ovulated later than we thought. I'm gonna look at your chart again one sec 😂

@glasspaw thank you! I'm hopeful as its definitely darker, but still worried as its not as dark as most tests are at 15dpo 😕

Tonight's tests, I'm 15dpo. It's even darker and pinker in person... Still unsure!

1dpo, anyone else? 😊

So tmi but I've just noticed (infact it was DH that pointed it out 😂) but my areolas are way bigger and WAY darker. Like quite a big difference! Hoping this is a good sign 😂

I wouldn't take that to mean anything at all honestly. They are strong lines and HCG doesn't double exactly every 24h.

My AF isn't here yet, I'm 4 days late. I got a BFN yesterday and I'm done testing, as clearly I can't be pregnant at this point. I'm thinking I might have a cyst going on that's messing my cycles (I have PCOS). I'm thinking I'm going to leave the thread since I'm not actually ttc and don't want to intrude, it was just a miscalculation this month.
I'm so invested in all your stories though and I wish you all the best of luck. If we decide to actually start trying properly I'll find you lot again, though hopefully you'll all be on a pregnancy thread by then! ❤️

Really sorry to hear, I hope you're feeling OK and if it is a cyst it's just one that goes away by itself. You're definitely not intruding, and thank you for all your replies 🥰 If I'm still trying when you start, track me down for sure! 😆 I'll be updating here either way with my situation, always annoying when you don't get the end of the story (or the beginning hah). All the best ☺️

My latest tests with 13dpo a bit lighter 😞

I know it must be so worrying after last time, but honestly I think those lines look really good. 13dpo doesn't look lighter to me from the photo! 🥰. I was told when comparing tests to take away the inbetween tests and only compare every 48 hours 😊. So I guess if Hcg only doubles every 48-72 hours you won't see much or any progression between 12 and 13. Maybe hide 12dpo for your own sanity! 😅

Kiwiburgh · 11/06/2023 10:16

I tested again on a frer and my line at 13dpo is slightly lighter 😔 I'm hoping this Is normal and not an early loss sign.Going to give it 48hrs before the next one then I'll be out of tests so no more.

I'm glad your In a better head space today though 🥰 For me I felt so relieved when af arrived and I could start a fresh.

Hey guys, thanks for everyone's support and messages ❤️. I was in such a bad head space yesterday. Hormones aren't helping I don't think 😂! Feeling better and more accepting today of whatever will be will be. I just hope if this is a chemical that I get my period soon so I can move past this, I've never had a faint line before so it's all been so overwhelming!

I just tested with internet cheapies this morning and got 2 more faint lines, same as yesterday. So who knows 😅.
I guess I can conclude that I am definitely pregnant (unless I've gotten about 8 very nasty indents) but it's likely it may not be a viable pregnancy.

How's everyone else doing today?

@Pinkmoon23 how are you? any news from this morning?

I got what I think is an indent today. Barely there no real colour and didn't come up straight away. By 11 DPO in prev pregnancies I've had v clear lines. I've convinced myself next cycle would work better anyway so want CD1 to just hurry up now.

Ugh frer indents are so frustrating! 🙁 How long did it take to show up? It does look similar to my line at 12dpo, I'm really hoping for you it's not an indent and it'll darken! 🤞 Are you planning on testing again?

@Pinkmoon23 af came 2 days later after my chemical :(

So sorry you had to go through that 🙁Chemicals are the worst. I'm thinking next cycle if this one isn't successful I'm going to only test the day (if) my period doesn't come. Then I won't even know I'm having a chemical. It's so mentally overwhelming. How're you feeling today by the way? Any pregnancy symptoms yet? 🥰

@Pinkmoon23 with how faint the lines are on the FR's, the digital is 100% going to say negative right now because of how much Hcg they need to detect.
In the past, the best tests I have used are the FRs and Amazon cheap ones.
I just think you're not seeing much progression because maybe you're testing too much.
If you really need to test then I'd do it in the mornings ( and only the mornings) or leave it at least a day in between.
Good luck, hope it works out for you x

Thank you ❤️ Yeah that's very true. I was figuring the faint lines were probably detecting the lowest level that frer can detect, which would be 6. And that was on Thursday morning. So if Hcg doubles every 48 to 72 hours, by now my Hcg would only be in the 20s. Obviously complete estimations 😂 but digi wouldn't have detected it yesterday!

@pinkandredflowers that's a nasty indent :( , are you going to test again tomorrow just incase?
