Hi everyone.

I am 6dpo and feel like I am waiting weeks now to do a test. I am cramping since ovulation. Been using OPK’s so fairly certain by a day/two when I ovulated.

TTC #3. ( been pregnant 5 times).

anyone else on the +-same time and need support?

@Anon243 congratulations! Wishing you all the best for this pregnancy and thank you for sharing your symptoms (as a serial symptom spotter I love to hear of other peoples experiences 😅) Wishing you so much luck ✨

BFN this morning…although I was expecting it as I’m only 8DPO and I’ve only ever got faint positives from 10DPO so I’m not completely ruling myself out.

its me & my husbands anniversary today and we’re going out for a celebratory dinner. Seems as I’ve seen a BFN, having a few glasses of wine with dinner & dancing should be fine right ? x

Hoping1775 · 25/01/2024 20:32

Oh my! Congratulations. You were so right with your intuition. It’s like you knew already ❤️ sending lots of love & luck. xx

Felt like crap today. My nipples was hurting so bad when I went under the shower ( water falling on to them). I am starting to be excited now😍😍 finally and hopefully sticks 🥰

all my signs was LEGIT!! Cramping since 2dpo and sore boobs. Fatique from 6 dpo and sever inflammation in my gums . my digital on the night of 8dpo😍 still very early and ALOT can happen but after all the heartbreak you have to celebrate the small things❤️

thanks for everyone on here💕💕

Thanks so much @rosebudbloom ❤️❤️

sorry to hear about your BFN. As long as Ffff AF is not here then we all have hope!! That is what keeps us going every month to try and try again. Hope can be cruel but it is all we have! Fingers crossed for you✨

Congrats @Anon243 and @elle123355 🙌🙌🙌

Amazing news and yes even though it feels scary definitely appreciate the little moments of hope. Let hope preside over fear whilst remaining cautious!!

BFN from me and pretty sure AF is on her way.. still holding onto a slither of hope though.. why not!!

Agree, looks like some progression there - fingers crossed

@elle123355 it really looks like there is progression in the photos. I would say if it stays like this for another week I would be worried. Good luck! I know how stressful things like this can be.

Hopefully it's not as blurry

@elle123355 is looks darker or more clearer. I dont know if its because of the quality in photo? Can you perhaps put them all next to each other and share a photo? I would think that by taking your bloods every second day would probably be the best to see of its progressing? It really do looks positive.

OP posts:
AnnieStar12 · 25/01/2024 13:00

@Anon243 this is the second day you’re getting faint positives, right? I think that’s a good sign as unlikely they’re all wrong or evaps!

@elle123355 sorry that sounds stressful, doesn’t sound like you got much help from your doctor. Will you call the midwife? Maybe they’ll give you a blood test. At this stage it’s hard for anyone to know as you wouldn’t even see anything on a scan so it’s just a matter of keeping testing every 48 hours. It’s good sign you’re still getting positives sending you best wishes, keep us posted x

elle123355 · 25/01/2024 12:38

Todays test being 5 days late I was thinking it should still be getting darker :( I'm worried so much abo it a chemical. I got in contact with the doctors and their response was 'the line doesn't determine the health of the pregnancy' and just passed me the midwifery number, I'm so worried

@AnnieStar12 now I am going to take it as a negative cause the pamflet said do not read after 10minutes and it came up visible for a photo around 8 minutes. IT is very thin I cause so I will wait for my pink dye test and step away from CB cause this stress is just unnecessary

OP posts:
AnnieStar12 · 25/01/2024 11:48

@Anon243 the evap lines I've had do have blue colour but they have looked a bit "weird" in one way or another, i.e. the line being broken or really thin. And defo come up over time as it dries, rather than straight away. I've had it happen twice with these.

great you've got the easy@home ones on the way

Anon243 · 25/01/2024 11:32

@AnnieStar12 yes I heard about the evaps. So I always keep that in the back off my head. I am waiting for my pink dye home@easy strips.

evaps have no color right? Or does it have blue color too?

OP posts:
AnnieStar12 · 25/01/2024 11:30

@Anon243 oh wow, very exciting! Good it came up in the time frame, that's really promising - let us know how it develops.

I have had horrible evap lines with these clear blue ones but they come up after 10 mins. So sounds like yours came up in good time, fingers crossed!!

Anon243 · 25/01/2024 11:19

@AnnieStar12 I can see the line and with all my early tests it did the same when I got BFP. So fingers cross for you.

I did a clear blue test 8dpo too. Its looks very like an indent test when I upload here but looks very blue in person. My phone just takes the picture stupid. Still very very faint. And came up within time frame. I am interested to see what the line looks like in an hour….

Im now 8DPO, last night I did a test before bed cause I couldn’t help myself, lol!
It was negative, but when I woke up this morning a vvvv faint line had appeared.

I did another this morning and it’s a BFN :(

I know people will say not to look after that many hours, but I’ve never had an evap line with this brand of tests and when I’ve been pregnant in the past the early positives have only shown when dry.

Trying not to get hopes up as today’s is a definite negative, but I can’t help myself. Still early days - I’ve never had a positive before 10DPO before.

The photo - top test from last night, bottom
from this morning.
