@LuceNumberTwo @H938
thank you ladies. Just come to get my daughter from gym and I just feel something is happening but then I think my mind playing tricks. My boobs are not sore which is strange for me but I feel nausea like my stomach is empty and some light goings on in stomach. Awwwwww I don’t know! I don’t feel this is going to be as easy this time around 😢😢😢😢😢 we only DTD 27th so I can’t be any more than 8DPO.

H938 · 05/01/2024 17:25

@Newmumwales @LuceNumberTwo we are all around the same, also Kitty got her BFP after a negative at 8dpo. Were too early to tell 🫣 could still be implanting. We still have as much chance 🤞🏼 in 2/4 days we will know. The wait is hard but dont let that test get you down you could still be implanting. It says on google only 10% of people get a positive at 8dpo xx

LuceNumberTwo · 05/01/2024 17:22

Can anyone else see that?

I don't want to get hopes up.. But I can?

@Newmumwales Oh hun! But you are still so early 💖 don't get down hearted yet, I know it would've been amazing! & I'd have gotten super excited. These tests can be crap (and I mean all not just this brand) for indents & evaps!
Please don't get too down 💖

@Newmumwales Doesn't mean it's a evap, did you have a chance to look at it this morning?
I'm really hoping it's not for you!!
The thing is you can think of it this way, which is what I'm trying to do, you aren't out until AF shows! So even if you do one & it's negative, you are still really early like me 💖

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 17:03

@LuceNumberTwo i done it this morning about 11am and didn’t look until tonight so defo an evap?! My mind playing tricks on me 😢😢😢😢😢 I’m too scared to do one as will be negative

LuceNumberTwo · 05/01/2024 17:01

@Newmumwales do another do another!!! 🤞🤞🤞 hopefully it's not an evap.. When did you take it & how much longer afterwards did you look?
I've seen Evaps on these but not like that! Xx

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 16:57

Ps do I order off Amazon? I’m too scared to test anymore as the disappointment

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 16:55

@KittyFantastica i really can’t be sure. It wasn’t there when I first looked but my dad had arrived so I put it down. Don’t want to believe it. Oh I really want to get excited. How long did your first like take to come up? I think I’m only 8DPO

KittyFantastica · 05/01/2024 16:53

H938 · 05/01/2024 15:03

@KittyFantastica ah that actually gives me a bit of hope as got a negative test today at 8dpo but I know its super early. Also have no symptoms x

I can't be 100% certain, but I think I ovulated Christmas Day or Boxing Day, so my first positive would have been day 9/10! I had a very obvious negative the day before. Fingers crossed for you, lovely!

KittyFantastica · 05/01/2024 16:51

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 16:33

Congratulations @KittyFantastica

ladies am I going mad? I looked and put it n down as family coming over. Went back to it tonight and this. An evap line? I’m only 8DPO I think!?!? It’s an easy @ home test.

Mine was an east at home test and this is exactly what it looks like. We DTD 24th, 25th, 26th & 28th, and I'd guess when I got my first tiny line on Thursday I was either 9 or 10DPO.

That looks like a positive to me!

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 16:47

@H938 im convinced it’s an evap line! I’ve got to as don’t want to get my hopes up. I’ve seen people get them. I did one as been having cramp twinges and nausea. But I’ve been ill though. AF not due for another 7 days odd.

I’ve got a clear blue here, a first response and one or two more easy at homes. I’m still so early. We DTD 27th December.

H938 · 05/01/2024 16:45

@Newmumwales i can 100% see the line but I dont know about indents, surely it will show up again though. X

Newmumwales · 05/01/2024 16:41

I’m going to have to! I’m not going to use my FResponse or clear blue?

Thank you all 🥰

@starryx None really except a bit of extra gassiness! On Wednesday 3rd January in the evening I had the tiniest, tiniest ache in my belly. Test was very obviously negative. When I woke up on the Thursday morning, I honestly thought AF had arrived. I got up to go and get supplies from the bathroom cupboard, checked and there was nothing there, so I did the first cheapie. The squinter came up within a minute!

The cramps and gassiness have been consistent ever since. My boobs are a tiny bit sore, but nowhere near as bad as they are before I ovulate. I felt mildly nauseous earlier, but it was gone in minutes. Honestly, I feel as though I'm on a period but without the PMS and actual blood flow at the moment!

Have you had any?

Well I can relate to the gas at the moment lol for the past few days and I woke up with cramps a couple of days ago and they have gone since 😅 I have woke up today feeling very tired and i felt a bit dizzy even though I had a normal night sleep.

Quite a few people say its similar to af symptoms so I suppose it shows never to give up!
I'm very happy for you

siobhanmt247 · 05/01/2024 13:29

@LuceNumberTwo im 7 dpo. I did test really early with my first at 8dpo but I was on clomid so I feel like that made it all stronger. I had implantation cramps with her a few days before and going to the loo alot made me think I must have been. I'm don't want to test until my period is missed though 😬

LuceNumberTwo · 05/01/2024 13:17

@H938 I totally get you, I was so like I'm definitely pregnant my boobs have been so bad since 5 dpo.. Like burning & super achy, with feeling sicky. But it's like is this my body playing tricks & giving me full force pms for AF next week 🤦‍♀️ but I swear I've never had boob pain like it

@siobhanmt247 how many dpo are you? If I'm pregnant then I'm apparently 8/9 dpo & been having symptoms since 5 🤣🤣 x

siobhanmt247 · 05/01/2024 13:10

Someone please tell me I'm being silly and it's too early to have symptoms. I don't think I can deal with getting my hopes up. A couple of days ago I had lots of twinges and pulling one one side, I've been going to the loo in the middle of the night loads and these last few days I've felt exhausted.

H938 · 05/01/2024 13:03

@LuceNumberTwo just a savers cheap one! But i cant help but think thats it now its over 😂 its draining all this waiting then testing. Yes waiting until next week Thursday see if it shows! I feel like after this im gonna stop trying with ovulation tests etc. I find it all stressful X
