Sorry, @Choc29, I can see the line but there's no colour to it so I would say it's an indent. Best to test again tomorrow with first and/or second morning urine before tea/coffee/water.

Choc29 · 21/02/2024 19:11

Is this vvvvvfp. I'm 5 days late for AF and im never that late!! 2nd month TTC. Please tell me this could be something. I'm going crazy lol. Tested with afternoon urine. X

I have sore nipples and feel nauseous. I’ve also had quite a bit of cramps/pain on and off. I had a mc so not sure if it’s still to do with that but did have negative after mc in 5 days and ovulated.

Sorry about your MC :(

I had so much cramping on previous days this last week, but I just feel like today it's all disappeared. Still early but not feeling much at all now.

Limmers14 · 21/02/2024 18:02

Sorry to hear @UKMummy2one it’s tough. I’m glad you were able to receive medical care and advice. So often, we as women find that fertility isn’t discussed or cared for so I’m glad you had a quick result, even if wasn’t the one you wanted.

I’m now on CD37, 11DPO if I go by when I got the solid smiley. I had some light bleeding last week and been quite hungry today but no other symptoms. I took a test yesterday and it was BFN. My period would be due this weekend.

UKMummy2one · 21/02/2024 15:55

@MilkyAndFluffy @YouveGotAFastCar thank you, bleeding has started this afternoon with bad cramps 😞

Wishing everyone all the best and will be trying to track my next cycle naturally, without using Letrozole as the consultant I booked in today with has confirmed I don't have many cycles left before I'm closer to the 12 maximum cycles of fertility drug help (turns out despite having a baby they count every cycle, not just consecutively so since 2018 I've had 3 failed - 1 successful = Baby followed by 4 unsuccessful)

MilkyAndFluffy · 21/02/2024 14:43

@YouveGotAFastCar thank you lovely - i have a everything crossed this is implantation bleeding for you and you get your BFP this month!! Sending you baby dust - it sounds positive

I’ll be heading over to the March thread now, so massive good luck and baby dust to everyone else riding out their TWW - I hope you all get the BFP’s you deserve ❤️

YouveGotAFastCar · 21/02/2024 11:21

@babycandy I’m sorry. I’ve felt really positive this month too, so I know the feeling.

@UKMummy2one Oh I’m sorry. I’m glad they got the results back to you so quickly, but that feels brutal.

My fingers are crossed for you both in March - and you, @MilkyAndFluffy.

Thanks @piechipsgravy! I thought it was earlier than that.

12dpo today. Still negative on tests. Slightly more blood on wiping this morning but still not actually bleeding. Not due until Friday, though. Really hoping it’s implantation, but trying to prepare myself for the worst!

I don’t usually spot between periods; and my periods don’t usually start like this 🤞

MilkyAndFluffy · 21/02/2024 09:08

@UKMummy2one i am so sorry to hear this, I’m sending you virtual hugs and lots of love. Be kind to yourself, TTC is cruel 😞 xx

MilkyAndFluffy · 21/02/2024 09:07

@babycandy so sorry to hear this, me too AF arrived this morning. Sending you so much baby dust, luck and a massive fingers crossed for March for you 🤞🏼🩷

UKMummy2one · 21/02/2024 09:01

Update: bloods have come back at 2.6mIU despite the positives and then fainter tests.

I'm having my first chemical 😔

UKMummy2one · 21/02/2024 06:56

Had my bloods taken yesterday as my lines don't seem to be progressing at all, I know you should ideally stick to one brand but had positives on Clear Blue Ultra Early Digitals, then the faintest of squinters but most easily seen after 3 minutes.

Close up - 14DPO pm

Will let you know what the bloods come back as.

Absolutely devastated. I was so sure I was going to get a positive result this month, but I’m bleeding heavily 😭

So sorry 😔 I hope you're able to get your positive on your next cycle 🤞🏼

YouveGotAFastCar · 20/02/2024 21:02

I'll test again on Saturday, but I've had negatives yesterday and today at 10 and 11 dpo, so I'm not confident. AF due Saturday. I've had the tiniest amount of very light pink spotting on wiping today, but it hasn't developed into AF yet - really odd for me, but too late to be implantation, I think.

I've got some slight hope because I had hormonal bleeding on and off throughout the first 12 weeks with DS... they put it down to me having a really sensitive uterus to hormones 🥴 It was super worrying at the time, but everything turned out okay. So there's a tiny part of me hoping it's just too early to test...

Think I definitely ovulated on day 13, though, I got positive OPKs and BBT showed it too.

Implantation can be up to 12DPO! Fingers crossed for you

elarcoiris · 20/02/2024 20:16

@PenguinOnTheMoon @Rosyposy26 @Noisinmaro I’ll be testing in Saturday too. Will be 10dpo so AF not due until next week but on cyclogest so need to test around then to know whether to keep taking it or not.

Noisinmaro · 20/02/2024 20:04

@PenguinOnTheMoon ha ha think I've lost count...since August I think...been on here since November maybe....some months we're out as was away for work or I was ill in Dec and Jan...all that jazz...last month was a proper effort....3rd month using the ovulation test, I did learn I ovulate earlier than I thought I did....so we dtd bit later than should have so changed all that up since started the tests....
Anyways trying not to think too much about it...

PenguinOnTheMoon · 20/02/2024 19:43

Rosyposy26 · 20/02/2024 14:21

@Noisinmaro

Noisinmaro · 20/02/2024 14:23

I'm due AF Sunday so testing the weekend as well, I've 4 test in the press for the 5 days early....
No symptoms... apart from being exhausted but thats probably due to other factors.....
But put in 100% effort this month....

Rosyposy26 · 20/02/2024 14:21

PenguinOnTheMoon · 20/02/2024 14:12

I'm 6 or 7 dpo and planning on testing on Saturday. FRER at the ready.

I might have felt implantation at 4.30am this morning possibly, weird fluttery pinching on my left side and lower stomach area more centrally. Didn't last too long though.

Have been feeling nauseous when I'm hungry, comes on all of a sudden and I just have to eat quite quickly. Also had light cramping for a few days on and off, but deep down know that's too early to be anything...but it's supporting my slight positive outlook on this month's attempt.

Anyone testing Saturday?

Me I will be testing Saturday.

I think AF may have just arrived 🥺. Very light and 3 days late. Ttc month 3 here we go. X

It's still not here!! I thought it was but was just the lightest spot ever not even sure if it was spotting and now absolutely nothing. Negative test still and took an early response this morning. What's going on! 4 days late. Has anyone else been pregnant and not shown on any tests.

WonderingAboutBabies · 20/02/2024 11:41

Just hopping back onto this thread... I joined the March one as I tested negative a week ago. However my period is now 3-4 days late... which isn't unusual as I have PCOS but it has been consistent for a few months now. Don't know what to think and I don't want to test just to get another BFN! No symptoms other than mild cramping and sore boobs- which is also very normal for me in the run up to AF...

KittyFantastica · 20/02/2024 11:13

Oh I'm sorry it was an indent @MilkyAndFluffy, these things have such powerful effects on us!

I don't know if you know the trick with inverting pictures of lines and/or indents, but for the future it might help? I was convinced my first vvfl was an indent, so I inverted the picture and it glowed. Indents don't tend to glow like the control like and a BFP.
