I haven't had an alcoholic drink in so long because I let TTC consume me! But tonight I though F it! This journey is so hard and sometimes you need a glass of wine to help 😂😂
Brings me so much joy seeing everyone's positive test! For the rest of us on this crazy journey our time will come soon!! Xx

Thanks all. Tell me why I decided to take a cheapie stick to his afternoon after a 2.5/3 hour hold hoping it would be darker than my super faint test this morning?! Haha. I’m just out buying some better tests for tomorrow morning. If I get a digital, how long should I wait to take that? I don’t want to waste it 😂

Most say first morning urine but my lines have been darker in the afternoon. I had my first vvvf line on Monday evening and then took two different clear blue early detection digitals on Tuesday afternoon and they were positive.

Take it with your first morning wee lovely. It'll be at it's strongest then x

Hi, I will join please! I just made a new post about TTC and now I’m wondering whether I should have posted it in here.

Welcome. What was your post about?

CoolSummer89 · 14/09/2024 16:26

MrsKurz · 14/09/2024 05:37

What do we think ladies? I’m 10DPO and this came up within the 5 mins… I’ve had such weird stuff the last few days with the spotting, and my temp is up this morning

Yes, it’s certainly a BFP to me. Wishing you all the best over the next 9 months and beyond ✨

@CoolSummer89 it's not an exact science but I reckon O-1 is probably the best day, as better to have 'em there waiting, and ovulation day itself can be too late. Good luck!

Yea of all the days it’s probably the best. Not getting my hopes up too much though. This is our 9th month of trying. We suspect that my DH might have a low sperm count due to an undescended testicle he had as a child. Waiting for SA on NHS next month to confirm. And in the meantime we just try and hope for the best.

Just getting ready to go on our short break away. Not tracking this month but just DTF every other day, my ovulation day is likely to be Tuesday. Really hoping this month something sticks

Good luck. I think that’s a pretty solid strategy 🤞🤞 hope you enjoy your break

Looks positive to me. Congratulations 🤍🫶

MyGardenDaisies · 14/09/2024 10:45

@MrsKurz I hope so too! I first got a faint line on 10DPO with my first baby, so still waiting

MrsKurz · 14/09/2024 08:49

Rrain · 14/09/2024 08:17

I definitely see a line! 🤞

Thanks! I am totally second guessing it as it’s so faint 😂 will definitely keep testing to see a proper line 😂

i never did a digital in my last pregnancy either so I’d really like to do one this time

MrsKurz · 14/09/2024 08:48

MyGardenDaisies · 14/09/2024 08:32

My tests are same as yesterday, or less visible? Ugh
If I invert images I can see it better, but it’s still only 8DPO, this is the earliest the tests would have been 65% able to detect pregnancy, so I’m not losing hope yet.

Period is due soon and I’ve been having all the same early symptoms like with my first pregnancy, so really hoping for a BFP in a few days!

I had a completely stark white negative yesterday at 9DPO, and a faint line this morning at 10. Levels are so low at this point it could simply be that your urine was more concentrated yesterday?

Hi all, sorry haven’t posted for a couple of weeks. I am 4dpo and on holiday. Was away with work and then travelling right before ovulation, so we only managed to DTD the day before O. So I am still in it to win it but I also feel like I have only bought one raffle ticket y’know!
It’s our final day of holiday today so I have just been going through and reading all your updates, so great to see to see so many BFPs and early ones too! Dreading going back to the UK and continuing the TWW at home with nothing to distract me/cheer me up 😅

@MrsKurz everyone is different but my temp only drops the day of my period. It should remain high until day of or day before period, otherwise it could be a sign of low progesterone.

@MyGardenDaisies sorry I really can’t see either (not that I can’t see a line just photo not clear enough) hopefully line is more pronounced tomorrow, do keep us updated!

It only takes one! And I love the only bought one raffle ticket analogy 😂😂

MrsKurz · 13/09/2024 16:36

@CoolSummer89 that makes sense. Do you find your temp stays high for pre period spotting too? I just don’t normally spot outside my cycle at all so no idea what’s going on. Guess I’ll just wait and see, I know that spotting is so normal for so many reasons
