7 dpo anyone else?

First month trying for number 2 and currently 7 dpo, fighting the urge to test, I feel pregnant but know it’s too early. Had cramping the last few days and had to pee in the night, but honestly could be anything couldn’t it!

Period is due at the weekend, trying to hold out til Friday to test.

we have a 2 year old and before he was born we had two losses. Mixed emotions trying again but mostly excited.

@TheShellBeach it’s pretty much started - it’s brown atm, my periods since having my son are always brown spotting for a few days, then nothing for a couple days, then full period. It’s weird and I have spoken to the gp but they said the only treatment would be to go on the pill which I don’t want as TTC!

I did an early detection test on Sunday and it was negative and started spotting brown straight after so I’m pretty sure I’m out this month, thank you though ❤️

Has your period started, @Cafeaulait27?

Don't lose hope! It is so awful, to think you've got to go through another whole month before you can even think about testing again.

@Cafeaulait27 im out for this month! It was only the first month trying so I’m ok but still feel a little sad. I defo won’t buy another waitrose test - they used to be good but they look different to how they used to, quality probably gone down. How’s it going for you today? Sorry you got a negative, do you think you’re definitely out this month?

I tested BFN today. Period due today although hasn’t arrived yet. I usually have a 12 day LP but occasionally 13, so it’s not late unless it doesn’t arrive tomorrow

So frustrating, got 2 more waitrose tests today and both faulty. Had to dip right over the plastic to make anything happen and then it got flooded with dye on both.

looks like I’m not pregnant looking at these but going to get a refund on them and buy a different brand later today. So annoying!

any joy today @Cafeaulait27? I never trust those supermarket ones! 🤞🏻

Well. Tested with my last test this morning and nothing happened, not even a control line so must be a faulty test. I tried taking it apart in case it was upside down but couldn’t tell what was wrong.

We’re doing the food shop today so will buy another!

@tessdurbyfield thats so lovely ❤️ will be wonderful to tell him when the time comes.

I often ask my two year old if he’d like a baby brother or sister and he always says no 😅😂

@tessdurbyfield im not sure when I ovulated as I don’t track it, but according to my Glow app I’m now 11 dpo.

really trying to hold off testing until Monday now!

will it be your first baby?

Try to distract yourself over the weekend!
No, I have a three year old - he'll be very excited to be a big brother!

@tessdurbyfield definitely positive, congrats!

I got this this morning, period due on Monday. It’s an early detection test, it’s sooo faint but this was taken within 3 mins. the line has now disappeared so not sure what to think!

Definitely positive today 😃 good luck everyone

@tessdurbyfield i did this today and got similar but the more I look at it the more I think there’s nothing there! With yours though, I see a line ☺️

what kind of test did you use, and how far away is your period?

I used a ‘5 days early’ Boots test, I’m 5 days away from my period and roughly 10 dpo. I really feel pregnant but I don’t think there was anything there other than an indent which I think I spotted before taking the test now I look at it. I will test again when my period is due if it doesn’t arrive!

yours looks promising but I’ve definitely got line eyes with mine I think!

It's a First Response, thank you, glad I'm not going mad! I know, it's so hard when you're looking at the exact spot, your brain can create something there. Fingers crossed for us!

PandaOrLion · 11/04/2024 18:29

Joining in as currently 7dpo. Seemed to ovulate earlier this month and AF due 21st April. Hopeful for us all as we wait!

Thanks, I'm fairly convinced by it!! But will test again tomorrow and see if something more prominent appears tomorrow 🤞🏼 had an early miscarriage last year so am wary of getting to excited

1woodpecker · 11/04/2024 16:57

tessdurbyfield · 11/04/2024 15:59

Only 9DPO... but what do you think ladies? Not FMU but within the 3 min mark...

I can definitely see that!

I was half asleep when I wrote the above haha.

Did a test this morning and it was negative, now a bit annoyed that I did it so early now as I basically wasted a test.

Im not due my period until Monday so was a bit silly testing so early! I think I’m probably out this month now but will test again on Monday.

good luck everyone!

I’m going to test in the morning, convinced I’m pregnant because of the full/crappy feeling and lots of CM, as well as needeing to pee loads. I’ll be 9 dpo. Let’s see! I’m

@Cafeaulait27 thank you so much. Yeah they’re incredibly regular, so I should know if it is coming or not by Thursday! I’ll keep you updated! Let us know when you test again.
