Back at the start of another TWW… anyone else at the same point and fancy being TWW buddies?
We have tried the SMEP method and conceive plus lubricant this month, time will tell if they have made a difference!🤞🏼

@PennyPencils You’re not the only one doing silly tests in the afternoon. I’m so sorry if it’s the dreaded chemical, there is still hope but sending hugs.

@MrsS11 Totally understandable for you to feel a bit down lovely. Especially being around the pregnant cousins. If you are 9dpo you still have time. 🤍

Please don’t be an indent or evap😱😱😱

This can't possibly be an indent. This is so so clear. 🥰 Have you got a clear blue?

LuxyLocket · 22/09/2024 17:26

@Emiily887 That’s amazing!!! That’s definitely not an evap line and a lot darker than mine so I would say it’s legit!!! So so happy for you honestly 🥰🥰🥰let’s be tentatively excited and see what tomorrow brings! Do another in the morning!
these tests are nuts! They certainly played with your head and made you wait enough for that line!!!

@Emiily887 that looks clear as day, surley its too dark to be an evap, did it appear withing the first 5 min?! Tentative congratulations!!!! ❤️

At about 2 minutes I thought I had line eyes but thought something was there like I have done a few times over the last few days. Then this was around the 5-10 minute mark🤞🏼
But I am really really crampy especially in my back which is how I feel before af and last time I had a chemical😫

Well I stupidly did another test this afternoon after lots of water and feel rubbish that there's nothing there.
Cramping is a bit worse tonight I'm fearing the dreaded chemical.

@Emiily887 I didn't follow that at all but it's still reassuring 😅 had a family do last night and 2 of my cousins are pregnant and it was just harder than I expected. Plus a bfn this morning, I'm just feeling a wee bit sorry for myself. But I'm only 9dpo, so will keep testing til AF arrives (definitely doesn't feel imminent so 🤞)

LuxyLocket · 22/09/2024 16:37

@Emiily887 I’m so glad is not just me who is confused! ☺️☺️I had to look up what an evap line was to get my head round it.
I bought mine last Mon and they arrived Thursday!
I have read mixed reviews of them on Amazon and some complain of them not being accurate but mostly they are good reviews and friends have recommended them so 🤷‍♀️
let’s test again tomorrow and see. I’m being realistic that AF is coming but just want to do another one or two to see about this ‘evap’ line. Will look more closely and time it to see if it really is showing up within 5 mins though i’m sure it has been.

Emiily887 · 22/09/2024 16:33

LuxyLocket · 22/09/2024 15:48

I’m feeling grumpy, which I can be like when AF on her way. Been reading about evaporation lines and worried mine are those now. Wish it was simple, there are so many different options and things are so similar.
but pleased to have made some friends and got through my first tww 🥰

If they came up in the timeframe it shouldn’t be an evap, this is why I’m so confused! 🤦🏻‍♀️
Could I ask when you bought your easy@ homes? Just wondering if there’s been a dodgy batch because it’s weird we’ve both had the same ‘is it there or is it my eyes’ lines!😫

Hope you are feeling better soon girls 🩷 planning for next ovulation is keeping me going too! I’ve decided I will try opk next time.

Bb542 · 22/09/2024 15:52

I wish AF would hurry up too. I'm so over this 😫 the thoughts of ovulation testing again ☹️ hope you girls with colds feel better soon ❤️

@owlcat24 oh god I’m full of a cold too! Blocked nose on top of feeling like I’m out this month is not the one😂

OP posts:
owlcat24 · 22/09/2024 15:31

I think I'm coming down with a cold, and having written this cycle off, I'm just feeling a bit miserable 😅

Emiily887 · 22/09/2024 15:28

I’m just very crampy. If it’s AF pending I wish it would just come and put me out of my misery 😂 and if it’s signs I just wish a test would give me a conclusive answer 🫠

LucyLou0527 · 22/09/2024 15:24

i didn’t have many symptoms yesterday but this afternoon I have had pinching feelings in both sides of my womb 🤷🏼‍♀️

Bb542 · 22/09/2024 15:20

Emiily887 · 22/09/2024 10:54

I’ve just come across this so thought I would share it!….. after my chemical I had a gynae app and my baseline none pregnant hcg level was 2, so this is definitely food for thought!

……..

Thought this might be helpful for you all, It explains alot. So DON'T give up hope just yet!!

HCG doubles every 48 hours. You can have a level of 1 - 5 in a non pregnant state.*

Implantation could be later than you think.*

If a woman implants at 8dpo, with a 'non pregnant' hCG level of 1 [Which is totally normal] it would rise as follows

8dpo - 1miu hcg
10dpo - 2miu
12dpo - 4miu
14dpo [Day AF is typically due] - 8miu
16dpo - 16miu*

So this lady wouldn't finnd out until 15dpo on a very senstive 10miu pregnancy test, superdrug own or possibly asda own. Obviously if she implants LATER than 8dpo [which is normal] she will find out even later.

Now, Take a lady who implants at 8dpo, But has a'Non pregnant' hCG level of 5. Hers looks like this;

8dpo - 5miu
10dpo- 10miu - Could find out here on superdrug own, internet cheapie
12dpo - 20miu - Could find out here with freedom cheapie strip/most poundland tests and asda own]
14dpo - 40miu [day period is typically due] Most tests would pick it up here

So, This lady, Even though implantation is on the same say for both ladies, Can find out MUCH sooner. Now, If this lady were to implant at 6dpo she could potentially find out at just 8dpo. But if the first lady were to implant at 12dpo, She would find out even later, Even if they have the same cycle and OV days!

This is brilliant. Thank you for sharing @Emiily887 . How's everyone feeling this afternoon?

Emiily887 · 22/09/2024 13:43

@LucyLou0527 @Littlebean25 @LuxyLocket it definitely makes a lot of sense!! I do still think af is coming for me because of the back ache getting worse and being a bit crampy but you never know! I just can’t shake the 10miu tests having a shadow aswell as the boots strips, but then the others have nothing (but they are 25miu) so god knows! 🤦🏻‍♀️

LuxyLocket · 22/09/2024 13:01

@Emiily887 Thanks so much for this this is super re assuring to know!!! That does make sense!!! Good to hear as I’ve been comparing to friends etc who have had clearer lines at like 9dpo and my silly ‘is it there’ lines having been winding me up.

Thanks so much for sharing this with us and it does give us all hope 🩷🩷just goes to show everyone’s body is different

Littlebean25 · 22/09/2024 12:38

@Emiily887 love this and holding onto it - hopefully still time 🤞❤️

i will be testing tomorrow at 10dpo!

with my last pregnancy (ended in mc) I didn’t get a positive until 14 dpo x

@Bb542 its awful, I’m so sorry they’ve been the same for you!
I think you can only have 1000 posts on a thread, was going to make a new one this cycle but I think if we come back here and then I can make a new one at the start of the next tww and post the link in here? If you ladies are happy with that of course🩷

Aww 💯! Loving the laughs and support on this thread 💗 Thank you @Emiily887 🥰

moosey89 · 22/09/2024 11:04

I'm pretty sure other threads I've been on have been like 39 pages of posts long 😂 hopefully have a while yet on this one!
