Hi all. Just setting up a new group to continue the chats and support.

congrats to those with positives!

I hope there’s more to come 🤞

Iris2024 · 24/08/2025 14:57

I’ve done a clear blue and there’s a faint line this afternoon. Fingers crossed 🤞🏽

EmPeEf · 24/08/2025 12:29

@Iris2024 🥰 ah so pleased for you!! That's certainly darker than yesterday. I'm so delighted!

Edited

Thank you so much lovely. It’s so hard to believe it isn’t it even when there’s a line clearly there. Just hope this is it now! ❤️

Can’t seem to be able to edit my post - I attached the wrong pic it was yesterdays test! This is today 11 DPO

@Iris2024 I see it clearly in today’s test! Even 1 day difference can help, mine today at 11dpo is much more convincing than yesterday. Spotting also stopped since yesterday morning so feeling more hopeful 🤞

Thank you 🙏 Congratulations hun, it’s a hard place to be not knowing if to be happy and hopeful. I feel nausea this morning. Not telling my partner yet as so worried that this isn’t it.

Hi All, new to the thread but joined one when TTC my DS in 2023 and found it super supportive 🩷 now TTC #2. Pretty sure we’ve missed the window for August so will move on to September thread but just wanted to say hi 👋

Notsure31 · 24/08/2025 07:30

@SureLook i hope this one sticks 🤞

@Notsure31 yes, it does. I'm not sure why but both lines are definitely there 🥳

9dpo and took these this morning after about a 3 hour hold… for some reason it looks fainter on the frer than the easy at home?

@Andrasa that is annoying! Did you start any prenatal vitamins recently? They can sometimes throw your cycle off.

@Indieholic hello and welcome! It might just take a bit longer this time but you will get there ❤️

@Iris2024 don't feel silly for being hopeful for something that you really want. There's nothing silly about that. We're all in the same boat x

Hey everyone
I am joining in
should be ovulating in the next few days I am going to buy some tests this time to make sure I get the right day
this is my 5th cycle trying which is worrying as I do have kids from my previous relationship and this will be my first child with my partner of one year he also has kids but said it took a long time to convince in the past as to I normally fall pregnant straight away in the past but than saying that I am nearly 40 now not in my 20s anymore so we’re see

baby dust to everyone

Welcome lovely, I’m 41 and myself and partner have a child together and he has a nearly 18 year old. Just want to know if we can have another. Sending you baby dust and welcome to the group.

ForGiddyDreamer · 23/08/2025 18:04

@Iris2024 that looks nice and dark for being outside the ov window, eek! How does it compare to your usual ov tests before you enter your window?

I think it’s abit darker in this test, I feel really silly as I know I’ll do another one and it will be whiter than white. It’s so hard when you want it so much doesn’t it. Your mind runs away with you and plays tricks.

Af is now seven days late 🥲 I’m definitely not pregnant, just annoying to not be able to start a new cycle already! I had to have antibiotics for a minor infection just before mid cycle so I’m hoping that just messed something up. Annoying the first cycle I ttc is the first time in years I’ve not been able to predict af to the day!

Thank you @SureLook ☺️

I did a OV test as @ForGiddyDreamer suggested and it’s attached. Not low but not peak

@Iris2024 maybe you could test again in two days at 12dpo? That might be a little more definite then. Sending hugs x

OP posts:

irongiulia · 23/08/2025 16:47

@Iris2024 I know it’s hard! Do you have any of the more sensitive tests? Seeing a faint but clearer line on there made me feel better but having said that last month I convinced myself I was pregnant over an evap line and it was dreadful 🥲

Iris2024 · 23/08/2025 16:40

SureLook · 23/08/2025 16:32

@Iris2024 I understand not wanting to get your hopes up. Will you test again or what are you thinking?

I really don’t know what to do hun, the feeling of doing a test and it be blank will break my heart 😩 but also really want to know, I don’t think I am though.
