April 2025 TTC Support Group

Very, very late to this thread! Needed to join as I’ve been loosing the plot. Cramping for over a week and feel like shit. Was hoping to be able to blame pg(!) for this but I don’t think I can.
I think (?) 12dpo. Negative frer today so looking unlikely. Will test one last time if no AF on Wednesday.

Thanks all. My experience with my DD was different - just had some very obvious positives including on a digital test before my period was due. Hoping timing of ovulation just different this time (I don't track properly, just use the Flo app) but obviously could be a false positive or even a chemical. Feeling anxious about what the next few days might bring... Hope everyone else is staying sane!

That there looks just like my first positive with my son! Congratulations 🙌

Does anyone have any advice for bbt tracking? Started today x

@bananabread23 there's definitely a line there! Test again tomorrow morning 🤞🏻

@bananabread23i hope its a positive! I would look up the test and see if its renound for false positives and if its not then i would be celebrating as i defo see a line but evaps are so disappointing x

Thanks to this thread, feel a bit better today. Very difficult to get back to trying again after getting disappointed.

@bananabread23 oh that is a faint pink line, usually good news…… was that line there within 5 mins of taking the test?……

Thanks so much for this reply - I thought I already responded but can't see my reply anywhere! And congrats on your good news I've seen further down the thread. It is so confusing with the tests not actually being as reliable as they say they are!!

I actually got my days muddled up yesterday and cycle day 31 is today. Still in the same situation with an incredibly faint line this morning, but have had cramps and headaches so feel like AF on the way.

@Disneybride I never get any spotting with my ovulation but it could be that. Hopefully someone else comes along with a similar experience.

@Twoweekstoolong it's very hard not to fall down the rabbit hole sometimes!

hi all! I’ve been lurking so just finally commenting for a rant really. I lost the plot this month and convinced myself I was pregnant even though we aren’t properly trying right now and I haven’t tracked ovulation and I’m still breastfeeding so my cycle is all over the place. I went down the rabbit hole of symptom spotting and just had myself convinced! Obviously I got a BFN this morning and based on the last time we DTD, I would have expected to see something today if I was in fact pregnant. I just have to wait and see what happens with my cycle now and hope I can stop myself going crazy again next month 🙈 best of luck to everyone trying and congrats to those who have been successful! 💓

I know I’m late to the party, but jumping on. TTcC with PCOS, also on Letrozole. No njoy but I should be ovulating around now and have very light pink bleeding. Not had this before, could this be ovulation or something else? I ran out of my OPK tests and the ones I got from boots in the gap are awful!

@BritishDesiGirl oh no ! ☹️😔

Coming on today as feel very down. 😪

Hey, so my experience of the digital tests is that they are not sensitive at all and therefore don’t test early with them. If your lines are still faint on the little sticks then don’t use a digital. You’ve got a few days left, and before AF the tests will be faint, so be patient, every 2 days the line should get slightly darker/thicker, it’s not a lot mind. But I totally get the confusion and the want/need to test constantly. It will all work out I am sure. Sending baby dust to you

@Hethers oh no, I’m so gutted for you, I really had hopes. Ah man. Well now you can have a glass of wine with dinner and try again soon. Sending hugs

Hello, hoping for some guidance as feel like I'm going crazy. My period is due today (day 31 but range is 31-34 days for cycle). I've been testing the past few days as felt really nauseous and had a couple of very very faint lines that come up right at the end of the time window for reading the test. I've done 2 clearblue early detection tests and both said 'not pregnant'. I'm inclined to believe these as they're early detection so should be sensitive, and they are meant to detect nearly all pregnancies this close to period being due. So I think I should conclude I'm not pregnant and stop obsessing over previous faint lines, right? Going to try hard to distract myself today but I could do with some moral support/ expectation management. Thanks in advance.

Congratulations @KLK94 great news! Sorry to hear AF has come @Hethers hopefully the next cycle will be ours!

Aw congratulations!! The most perfect line!

I have AF this morning and BFN. Maybe it was a chemical or indents.

Ahh massive congratulations to you @KLK94
Sending baby dust to everyone else on this journey 🧡 xx

This morning I got the official CB tick of approval. Officially pregnant. Line was there after only 1min.
I guess I can stop testing like a crazy person now and just believe it.
good luck everyone

Sounds like such a tough time. Hope everything works out ok. Sending lots of baby dust

@KLK94 Thank you. It at least wasn't the worst I was expecting but it's hard just to wait and see. They didn't offer a scan since I'm so early but I pushed as was so anxious and glad I did as I was convinced it was all over this morning so in a way it's good to at least understand what's happening I guess...

I’m so stressed. The first response today was still faint but I would say more obvious than yesterday, definitely pink and came up straight away. It wasn’t a lovely dark line that I’m desperate to see but thought it must be something! But now I’ve got brown discharge so praying it’s not AF or CP.

Usually when my AF arrives it’s bright re straight away so holding on to hope still! Maybe it’s implantation which would make sense with faint lines but 14dpo today so feeling so unsure!

Thank you for checking on me!

@Hethers - any news tonight or waiting until tomorrow morning?

Sounds like a little bit of reassurance which is good. It’s there and real.
good to have an answer on the bleeding too. Fingers crossed and baby dust for the next few weeks for you!
