Hi all 👋🏻

I'm currently 3dpo.. wondering if anyone else is roughly the same and doing the 2ww?! I haaaaate waiting. It feels like a punishment 🤣 just hoping for someone to go through this with!

Yeah i think i would test too!

I'm ok thank you! Had a quick wee this morning before I could even think about testing so that's good. To be honest I don't feel like this is my month so I'm not going to get my hopes up I think! AF not due until next Thursday ish x

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate I really hope not but feels likely at this point. If AF hasn’t arrived by tomorrow morning I’ll probably still test just in case.
How are you today? 😊

Oh no @CrazyKJ ... hopefully not, and they are not AF symptoms!

Congratulations @candyflossxox, wonderful news but understand your apprehension. Hopefully soon you can fully enjoy the BFP!

That’s understandable, one day at a time. Hopefully this one sticks 🥰

I’ve got pretty much all the signs I usually get when AF is coming so suspect she’s on her way 🙈

candyflossxox · 21/03/2025 07:25

Thanks! It’s got darker than yesterday. But hard to think positive coz of previous losses.x

CrazyKJ · 21/03/2025 07:21

@candyflossxox Thats a nice clear line for 10dpo 😊 Congrats!!

candyflossxox · 21/03/2025 06:52

10dpo

3dpo - anyone else?
CrazyKJ · 20/03/2025 20:43

Yeah Id only use a digital to confirm a positive, definitely too expensive to use all the time. I found it reassuring last time to see it in writing 😊

I've never done a digital either and feel like I'm missing out, but they're so expensive! Might treat myself if (when) I get a positive normal one..

I’ve always found the frers reliable, never had a false result or an indent. I like clear blue for the digitals but had a couple of really bad evaps on the line ones. A lot of people do like the cheapies off the internet but the reviews are always so mixed, so I never feel 100% sure whether to trust them lol

Yeah that makes sense! I've never used a FRER before.. are they the best? I've always just used cheap and CB.

OP posts:
CrazyKJ · 20/03/2025 15:34

Not that many really to be fair, usually do 2 or 3 frers as I’ve always got indents in the clear blues and cheapies. It’s more that it makes me so anxious each time I get a negative. So by limiting the tests I spend less days so worried if that makes sense? 🙈

Only two days (one really!) until Saturday so not long to wait at all! How many tests do you go through on an average month? I think even though the wait is horrendous its exciting to think what could be! I just don't want to get my hopes up too much though.

OP posts:
CrazyKJ · 20/03/2025 09:59

Yeah Saturday is what I’m hoping to wait til. AF is due Monday so hoping if I can hold out Saturdays result should be accurate 🤞Told hubby I would try not to buy more tests this month, so really trying to be good lol. Feeling quite positive about it all so far. Helps that it definitely feels like it’s going more quickly the closer we get to the weekend thank goodness 😊

That's a good plan, wee as quick as possible 🤣 it was only a cheapy too, glad I didn't waste a CB! Well hopefully it is your month! Did you say you're testing Saturday? Less than a weeks wait now for me until AF is due so the wait doesn't feel as bad as when it was 2 weeks!

OP posts:
CrazyKJ · 20/03/2025 09:39

It’s just too tempting when the tests are about lol. I thought about it this morning but made sure to do my first wee really quickly so I wouldn’t 😂 they do say hcg doubles something like every 2 days so might be more chance in a couple of days 🙈🤞
in still feeling a bit dizzy on/off this morning strangely so definitely not imagining it lol

Morning! I felt nauseous again this morning but could have just been hungry 🤣 I tested this morning (8dpo) and obviously it was the biggest negative in the history of negatives haha don't know what I was thinking! Will try again wither Saturday or Sunday I think. Tomorrow is actually my 6 days before my missed period.

OP posts:
CrazyKJ · 20/03/2025 07:47

@candyflossxox ooh fingers crossed!! Maybe do another test in a day or two and see if the line gets darker 😁

Hows everyone else this morning?

Ive still got no real signs although did randomly feel a little dizzy a couple of times this morning. Just for a couple of seconds each time (long enough for me to wonder if I was imagining it!) 😂

candyflossxox · 20/03/2025 07:26

I’m sure I see a faint line this morning. Yesterday I thought I was out. Nervous though as had a chemical in January. Shouldn’t have tested early coz now im going to be paranoid!!!

Peanutbutterjelly123 · 19/03/2025 19:34

Yeah I’m good, ready for the next cycle 🤞
