5dpo, anyone else?

I’m currently on 5DPO, anyone else in the same boat?! TWW is a killer!

My partner and I are on cycle 10 and have had 2 miscarriages during this time. I feel like everyone around me is having babies apart from me! ☹️

@Bonniexx I have had a lot of false positives on clear blue and the heartache from it is awful. That does look like an evaporation line as when I’ve had a true positive on them they’ve been thick. I always use pink dye tests only now because clear blue are horrific for falsies, which when you’re trying is truly heartbreaking.
Re test with a pink dye ❤️

Ladies!!! I took a CB early test today, I’m 8DPO. I took it about 2 hours ago and it was definitely a BFN, stark white so I threw it in the bin. I’ve just come downstairs and taken it out the bin to triple check (yes, I know I’m crazy) and I can see a line…. But the line is slightly off centre so I’m wondering if where it’s been sat in the bin the dye has just leaked maybe? And it’s not a proper line. Has anyone experienced anything similar? I really don’t want to get my hopes up because it could be nothing 🤷🏼‍♀️ xx

5dpo, anyone else?

@Bonniexx @Tallgirl91 good luck testing today! My last pregnancy I didn’t get a BFP till 14dpo! The wait is awful isn’t it! 7dpo today and know it’s too early to test but want too 😂 xx

Morning all! @Tallgirl91 I'm also 8DPO today too, I might start testing this afternoon once I can hold a pee for a few hours. I can never test in the morning because I always get up and pee throughout the night 🙈 Good luck to anyone testing today!! 🍀 xxx

@Emiily887 yes fingers crossed hun!
im been sooo crampy today, feels weird I might start testing tomorrow 🫣 ooh coffee is deffo the one to turn your stomach x

Rosabuddy · 11/06/2024 13:43

Hi everyone, mind if I join? I got a positive on Clearblue digital yesterday so thinking I ovulate today? DTD yesterday but can’t today so think we have had our only shot this cycle

PeachLeader · 11/06/2024 12:37

@Emiily887 id love to have a bfp after all these heartbreaking months of bfn's , I just feel really weird this morning I don't know how to explain I just feel off not sure if I'm coming down with something , I've had cramps aswell which come and go I'm not normally a crampy person either , have you got any symptoms?xxx

Emiily887 · 11/06/2024 11:39

@PeachLeader welcome!🩷 it’s so hard isn’t it. Here’s hoping this is your month! 🤞🏼
I am 6dpo today. Do you have any symptoms? Xx

PeachLeader · 11/06/2024 10:30

Hi ladies can I join I'm 5dpo I'm trying for baby no3 been TTC just over a year and half but really struggling xx

Emiily887 · 11/06/2024 09:59

I honestly feel like I am just imagining things half the time!😂 I know it’s impossible to know at 6dpo but you just can’t help but symptom spot! Pelvis feels heavy today but every other symptom has gone, other than another wave of nausea when making the morning coffee!🤔
Fingers crossed for us all ladies! X

Tallgirl91 · 11/06/2024 09:40

@Emiily887 @Bonniexx Aww yes it’s the twinges that make you feel like something is happening there! Aww brill , we only managed to DTD 3 days before positive OPK as partner was away, still very doubtful this will work as only a small percentage of swimmers last that long but hey it’s worth a shot.
May last pregnancy I was 9dpo when I saw a faint line so holding out xx

We DTD on days 10, 12 and 13, then ovulated day 14. I don’t know why but I’m not feeling very hopeful. Last month I fully convinced myself I was pregnant, I thought I had every symptom under the sun but I wasn’t! 🤦🏼‍♀️ So now trying not to get my hopes up.

Currently no symptoms for me but I will cave tomorrow and start testing just so I can torture myself 😆 tomorrow I’ll be 8DPO. What about you ladies? X

Emiily887 · 10/06/2024 22:49

@Tallgirl91 i have got increasingly sore boobs today and twinges on the right side. Feel very tired and run down with a cold still but that could be completely coincidental! I had a wave of nausea too when I made a coffee.
I am going to try and wait until 9dpo but I’m such a poas addict! Hard not to test early!
We managed cd 15,16 and 18. Ovulated day 18 so fingers crossed 🤞🏼 what about you? X

Tallgirl91 · 10/06/2024 21:34

@Emiily887 thanks lovely ❤️ it sucks doesn’t it! What symptoms do you have ?
last time I tested 9pm and saw a vfl so will wait till at least then. You?
I started feeling slightly lightheaded, wave of nausea happened today too and CM has started (as I had nothing!) I know it’s too early to tell xx
@Bonniexx I hope so 🤞
when was everyone able to DTD around ovulation window ?

LateNightTalk · 10/06/2024 17:04

No symptoms for me minus the fact I have no PMS symptoms that I normally have at this time in my cycle! Mild niggles in my belly but could be the gym or shift work 🙄

esunny · 10/06/2024 14:10

I have the worst stiff neck and sooo tired. Not sure if the neck is a symptom or not?x

@Tallgirl91 I’m sorry to hear of your loss. It is so hard isn’t it :(
I hope it’s a good sign for you! I just feel off this cycle, can’t put my finger on what’s going on.
When do you plan on testing? X

Tallgirl91 · 10/06/2024 11:10

@Bonniexx
Sorry for your losses hun. ❤️ I feel like your everyone’s having babies apart from me, I’m 32 TTC my first. also had MC in April.

Tallgirl91 · 10/06/2024 11:08

@Emily887
Hi hun! I’m 6dpo and il like you really back back and hips. Weird. I remember having a bad back in my last pregnancy which sadly ended. But no other symptoms for me! It’s a horrible waiting game isn’t it x

Emily887 · 10/06/2024 00:57

Hi ladies! I’d love to join. Currently 5dpo. Had back pain and cramps since 2dpo. Unusual for me as never normally cramp until 3 days before af. Had tender breasts today and a cold. Something or nothing I guess! Good luck everyone xx

Tallgirl91 · 09/06/2024 21:04

Hi can I join? 5 dpo today!
no CM at all but cramping slightly & backache! Hoping this cycle will work as also had MC in April.
sending love to you all for your BFP X
