1dpo crew

just to add, I even uploaded it to an app and inverted to see if I can see anything. TWW literally makes me psychotic, or just brings it out of me 😂

@FlakyAquaQuoter ahhhh so sorry for the BFN this morning, BUT I am really hoping things turn around for you. It’s just depressing isn’t it seeing a stark white test. It’s like all your hope is destroyed in seconds. I’ve seen so many posts of people having very clear BFN and then testing positive the next day…soo you never know.

@KT199 it’s all to play for until AF arrives - hopefully the temp drop isn’t indicating its arrival…fingers crossed for you!!

@CatLady93 how are you feeling? I really hope it was an implantation dip for you!!

Guys I am literally only 8dpo and I caved and tested this morning. Obvs a massive in your face BFN😂😂😂😂

I’m okay, I feel disappointed but obviously got to wait for AF to actually show before completing ruling it out I just know these are the typical signs! But, time will tell over the next few days 😊

Morning ladies,

I didn’t bother to test this morning, I’m 10DPO according to my apps, but have always thought most likely 12.. my temp dropped massively this morning which is enough in itself and definitely makes me think I am 12, and AF may show tomorrow.

@CatLady93 fingers crossed for it being an implantation dip 🤞

@FlakyAquaQuoter Sorry to read of the BFN this morning 😟. Maybe try again this afternoon if you feel upto it? But as you say there is still plenty of time for you to get your BFP!

Morning @CatLady93. Yeah it can be quite crazy! I have just done one and it's a BFN. I'm officially sad now. 😔 I'll obviously keep testing and I've already read a million things about people only getting their BFP on a FRER on day 6/7 etc. But most will have them by now.

Ooh that's super exciting for you!! Got everything crossed! Hope DD is okay.

@CatLady93 - She's not long turned 3! Oh how lovely!
Yeah her and the cats are a pretty tight bunch, especially at bedtime. They've all come down to give me the cursory "get your butt to bed" mew.
My DD didn't cosleep at ALL (by her own bloody choice) until around 6 months ago when she snuck into bed with my one night. I've grown very accustomed to it now.

I'm in medicine, so it can definitely feel like one thing after another! Good days and bad days, but oftentimes the bad days wipe you a bit, especially when you're not feeling yourself anyway. Operations in sports sounds interesting!

Thank you, I'm sure it will. The great part about my job is that it's acute. So while I'm there, it's all in. But as soon as I leave it becomes someone else's thing and by the time I go in tomorrow everything will be different. New fires to fight and a fresh start! I couldn't do anything more ward based (or any other sort of role) as I wouldn't be able to leave it at the door.

Sorry everyone.. I'm very whingey tonight and really don't mean to be!

@CatLady93 - I've not long got rid of the monitor and it was horrible at first! Now it's.. oddly freeing. Though she is ALSO free and I regularly wake in the morning to find I have zero cats because she's in my bed and they're all snug with her instead. 😂 or she's opened her door after I've gone to bed to let them all in. I hope yours is feeling better from the cough. It's horrid isn't it!

Thank you, I'm not sure if the day made me grumpy, or if my grump made the day worse. It was just one of those where I felt like all I did was firefight. Normally I get quite a lot of satisfaction from these sorts of days, problem solving etc. Today I just wanted everyone to fend for themselves and stop with the questions. I'm blaming progesterone and hoping my face hid it well!

I'm exhausted and desperate to go to bed. Another hour and I can take the meds and do just that! I've heard a little pitter patter of feet and the toilet flush, so I'm willing to bet DD is going to be my bed companion for the night! Which, honestly, is exactly what I need.

Hahaah, oh well! Yeah I’m not sure how reliable some cheapies are tbh, I think all brands are hit and miss. I’ve seen some ladies get BFP’s and others stung with indents!

Ohhh sorry works been rubbish! Although, I feel you with that at the moment, already ready to break up for Christmas 🤣🤣

Its okay to be grumpy, especially when your feeling ill and have so much weighing on you. Do people at work know what your going through at the moment?

Err... yeah... I may have also done this. 😂

But it was a cheapie, and whilst I ordered the ones that are meant to be 10IU, lots of comments saying they're not and don't work. So I guess we wait for my FRER tomorrow morning.

Feeling a bit despondent this evening after a crappy day at work. And another one planned for tomorrow!

I've been a bit of a grump today, though I did try and hide it!

I know!! Weirdly all the end of my TWW so far have fallen over the weekend so I haven’t had to face work on the most disappointing days, so I’m not looking forward to that happening if it is the case!

Friday sounds a good day for you! Have you any symptoms?

I am 7dpo today, so think I’ll wait until Thursday, but maybe do a cheap test on Wednesday as I have so many in the house so why not😂. Symptom wise I don’t really know…I have some lower back pain but I also still have this UTI which is complicating the picture. Boobs are as hard as concrete, but that’s normal for me🙈

@KT199 sooo hard with work and having to put on a brave face after a negative test. And equally having to hide it if it’s positive is tricky too😂 I am hopeful for you though!!

@FlakyAquaQuoter you sound like me 😂😂 I am there looking at the test in a million diff lights and every imaginable angle. It’s definitely early so there’s still lots more time for you to get your bfp🙏🏼

Well, you could’ve also done an evening test too so I think that’s an achievement!!!

Thanks guys, I know that testing early is the best way for me, as if its going to be a BFN then I'd rather lose a little bit of hope every day rather than be crushed on official test day.

But maaaan. I knew the chances were small. In fact, I knew it was almost definitely not, but there I was, 6am, crouched in the bathroom with my phone light so as not to wake my very overly inquisitive child.

I'm a bloody liability.

I'll test with a FRER tomorrow and promise not to lose all hope until Thursday.

I have also ordered more FRER. I mean, let's face it, it's a drop in the ocean money wise after everything up to this point!

Glad you're all doing okay and staying strong! 💕

Yeah either Thursday or Friday (2 apps predicting different). I’m only 9DPO 😂 tomorrow I will take a judgement call on how I feel and I might test then or Wednesday! I just don’t want to go into work disappointed if I can help it!!

Oh wow that’s good going and patience!! How many DPO are you now? I hope whatever happens you have a clear answer before your Xmas do! You’re due Friday right?
