Thank you! I haven’t accepted it as truth yet 😭 feels so surreal

@EmeraldPie most definitely positive. Congratulations! 🥳

Thanks! I was skeptical as I’d heard mixed reviews about these tests and they’re so cheap compared to clearblue. I feel in shock and can’t quite believe it 🥹🥹

HansBanans · 17/10/2025 21:20

@EmeraldPie most definitely positive. Congratulations! 🥳

I found the courage to take a test…. What do you think? They are the same test

the second photo was a few mins after taking, The first was when it dried out a bit. The line appeared after around 1-2 min….

I’m 12 DPO.
are these boots early detection ones reliable?
thanks!

@Ec2808 i don’t temp as I have such different wake up times etc that I wasn’t sure if it would be accurate. I have pretty distinct one sides cramps day after peak so I try to cover that time.
maybe next month I’ll get a thermometer if no further along.

@fullofhope2024that sounds like good coverage are you also temping?
@EmeraldPieat 12dpo your test will be very accurate

fullofhope2024 · 17/10/2025 11:33

@Ec2808 started wed 😆 then this eve and hopefully we will cover it.
I’m trying not to over do it this month as that’s not worked previously.
we shall see, I had lots of EWCM Tue and wed and crampy so I think ov actually yesterday or today

EmeraldPie · 17/10/2025 11:12

hey everyone, I’m 12DPO today. CD27 (period last month came on CD26) but I can occasionally have 28 day cycles.
No AF yet and my temp still appears stable hasn’t dropped to pre-ovulation levels when I measured this morning, but my sleep has been disrupted probably because of the TTC stress at end of cycle.
I had some extremely light transient spotting/pinky discharge at 8DPO.
can I test today? Or better to wait another day or two?

I'd definitely test, good luck!

Looks good, I'd start bding today🤞

fullofhope2024 · 17/10/2025 09:48

Hey ladies just wondering your thoughts on my lh strips. I think it looks as dark but just wondering your thoughts

Anya23 · 17/10/2025 08:52

TTCjourney2025 · 17/10/2025 08:51

It’ll be typical as I’ve never experienced these pms symptoms but it now will be the new norm 🥲🤣

It's horrible, I also started getting these just before we were ttc 🤣 I was hopeful I was pregnant without even trying but I've been getting these symptoms every cycle since then 🥲

Anya23 · 17/10/2025 08:47

These are all pms symptoms for me, I only started getting them in the last few months
You know what they say, if the symptoms are caused by pregnancy then the test should be positive as well. BUT, you're 9 dpo, so it's possible implantation hasn't even occurred yet so 🤞

Also LH rises towards the end of your cycle whether you're pregnant or not 🙂

TTCjourney2025 · 17/10/2025 08:44

Morning all - 9DPO today and negative test. I’ve seen others test LH in their TWW… can someone please explain the significance of this? Here are my LH results for the last 4 days (today being the one at the bottom)

other symptoms:
waves of nausea that get better when I eat - never experienced this before but could be anxiety?
interrupted sleep - been waking up 2/3 times with vivid dreams the last few nights
stomach ache especially when around peeing
exhaustion - but this could be linked to the interrupted sleep?

@AccountingMummy did you maybe miss your proper peak a couple of weeks ago? I know LH can rise towards AF so maybe that’s what you’ve picked up rather than your actual peak. I get what looks like ewcm in the few days before AF too so maybe you get the same

AccountingMummy · 16/10/2025 11:30

morning all! 4 dpo and AF arrived today. Any ideas? It is my first full cycle since my DD arrived so cycle is all over the place clearly. I got EWCM and positive LH test 5 days ago so I’m confident that was my surge and my 4 dpo is accurate. Do we think I just have a short luteal phase this month? TMI but the bleeding is bright red, quite heavy and I have cramps, so definitely think it is AF rather than anything else.

laurajane07 · 16/10/2025 09:23

@HansBanansthey certainly do you 😔

HansBanans · 16/10/2025 09:07

@laurajane07 our bodies play cruel tricks on us when ttc!

laurajane07 · 16/10/2025 08:15

@HansBanansso really my period will likely come today or tomorrow 😫 god knows ive never had this before!!
