Ok won't add a photo but I took a test at 10am with third morning urine and it was positive although I'm suspicious of a dye run but it was in a plastic packet so not sure how the dye would have ran and made a positive???
Second two tests, different brands, I dipped into urine which was very pale and watered down, at 11am and got two very stark white results.
Just wish my period would show so I can move on

Sorry to hear that! That one could have been a faulty test unfortunately
Are the three tests the same sensitivity?

Background - I have two DDs. I'm now 16dpo and I was due on my period 4 days ago and still nothing. I'm regular. 25 day cycles. I'm now CD29.
Assume this could be a chemical pregnancy or perhaps I'm late through stress?

Glittertint · 02/02/2026 11:09

9dpo and determined not to test until 14dpo but oh my it’s hard!!! I’ve got zero pms symptoms this cycle

TvO2603 · 02/02/2026 10:20

I have done a cheap Sainsbury's test and there's a positive but could be a dye run as there's marks in-between T and C lines

I have 25 day cycles and I'm now on day 28 and no sign of period. Boobs still rock hard, little bit of cm. To top off the insanity of the tww I had a really vivid dream last night that I fell pregnant with twins. Complete torture. And a dream last week that I got a bfp. Still too scared to test so going to wait for AF for a few more days.
Good luck everyone!

With my first I had a dream about falling pregnant with her the night before I got my positive test so I really hope this is a good sign for you 🙏

Oh that's good to confirm, I always thought it was the day after the peak that was the most important. So much confusion with our bodies! It was so stressful yesterday having to fly on a moment's notice and then I felt guilty that I felt sad about missing a month when so much other stuff is going on. Thanks for lifting my spirits this morning.

@Anya23 you think? We hit Friday and Saturday, just annoyingly missed Sunday!

Of course! You're supposed to have the highest chance of conception o-1 day so I think that's right peak day! That's why I'm bummed, because this is the second cycle that we miss it due to work, in October I fell pregnant immediately when we hit peak day!

Anya23 · 02/02/2026 10:02

@LizzyRLI had my peak Friday morning, so Premom puts my o day on Saturday, although I felt the usual discomfort late Friday evening, so I'm 2/3 dpo now!
@tiutinkerbellIf you hit Thursday / Friday, you could still be in!

So nice to catch up with all the messages and see all the positive news!

I got surpise early peak OPK on Saturday afternoon and unforts due to a family emergency I had to fly unexpectedly so we missed Sunday after the peak and I am GUTTED to miss another month. I guess it takes the pressure of the TWW wait now as there is nothing to wait for...! What a nigthmare!

LizzyRL · 02/02/2026 08:31

Anyone else around when they just ovulated? My peak opk showed Saturday so premom said ovulation was yesterday and I had quite a bit of ewcm yesterday evening (which I don't always get so hoping that's a good sign!) dtd Friday Saturday and this morning so keeping everything crossed!

@Anya23 I’m 9dpo today, which is when I tested positive with both of my previous pregnancies… one successful (he’s 2 now) and one chemical!

Ah that's great! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean!

@ClaireF992 @BellaStar2020 I’m really hoping so, I’ll wait and do another test in the morning before I tell my husband, he was really crushed by the chemical in October so I don’t want to get his hopes up!

How many dpo are you?

Time for the monthly game of “is there a line or am I a raving lunatic”… I think there could be a line?

I see a line!!

Hi all, I’m just moving over from the Jan thread! I’m 8dpo, and tempted to test in the morning 😬 I’m currently having what can only be described lightning bolts shooting through my nipples which is new 😂

MochaLove · 01/02/2026 16:22

Hi guys! Congratulations to those with positive tests already ☺️ joining and in the tww, currently 10dpo but haven’t tested yet. Actually driving myself bonkers with waiting and symptom spotting, but feel like I could be disappointed if I tested this early. Planning to test in a few days. I’m not very hopeful this cycle to be honest as had some pretty obvious symptoms by 10dpo with my first pregnancy. Very hard not to compare, but I also know every pregnancy is different so shouldn’t count myself out. Sending lots of baby dust to everyone, ttc is so tough and it’s nice to have others to share the journey with ☺️

Glittertint · 01/02/2026 15:53

Anya23 · 01/02/2026 15:49

@TvO2603Fingers crossed! I think at this point, any kind of test will show a pregnancy 🤞
@GlittertintI might try and sleep while my dd sleeps during the day, at least while I'm not working, I have that opportunity 😂

That’s a good idea! I’ve told my DH to let me have the weekend lie in’s during my TWW which has massively helped!

Ah yes! All night I was thinking the same and googling like crazy 😂I'm 1dpo, and she started this two days ago.. I really hope this'll be better this night!

@Anya23 yeah this has been me my whole TWW 🤣 chatgpt told me it won’t but it’s also worth trying to get up to distract my mind and then re-sleep!!

Congrats @Orangeroses243!
@TvO2603Have you ever been this late? I'd definitely test now!!

No not this late before. If AF doesn't arrive tomorrow, when my girls are at school/playgroup I'll go and buy an FRER. Assuming you can buy these in shops and not just Amazon!

Congratulations on your bfp @Orangeroses243 fabulous news x
