@holzyb20 squinting to and can see the line you mean! Definite retest tomorrow will keep everything crossed for you

holzyb20 · 18/08/2017 15:44

Thank you and congratulations!! I'm definitely getting some symptoms lower back ache headaches, quite tired but feeling mildly crampy x

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 15:54

@Wonderfully - that's a very clear line!! Congrats!

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 15:56

Thank you @Chooklass and @holzyb20 this thread seems to have a lot of baby dust floating about!

SydBound27 · 18/08/2017 16:03

@wonderfully congratulations! How are you feeling??

Holy smokes this must be a record. Anyone kept track of the stats? Shock

Chooklass · 18/08/2017 16:10

There does seem to be loads of BFPs! Feel like I might be about to let the side down!

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 16:25

@SydBound27 thank you, I'm a tad shocked it has to be said I was shaking for the first five minutes! I really don't feel anything, the lack of symptoms has really thrown me! Am off to get a second test just to make sure.
This thread has been so lovely, thanks guys! I fee we need to make a spreadsheet of some sort like they do on the monthly bus threads Grin

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 16:26

@Chooklass you never know eh!? Let us know how you get on, when will you test? Tomorrow?

UppityStitch · 18/08/2017 16:37

Congratulations to all the new BFPs!! FlowersCakeBrew

Oh no @Chooklass. You're my date buddy. Fingers crossed you're still in the game. I'm doing another one tomorrow as the waiting is too much

holzyb20 · 18/08/2017 16:41

I feel like my TWW has been more like a Two month wait this cycle!!

Betsyboo87 · 18/08/2017 16:54

Congratulations @WonderfullySunny! That's a clear bfp. Wow this thread has been amazing!

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 17:26

Hi guys. I think I had a faulty test Confused 4 negatives since the bfp on Wednesday. Terrible sickness yesterday and last night but seem fine today so I must've had a bug.

Still no af.

SydBound27 · 18/08/2017 17:34

Oh penny! How can a digi be faulty? That's rough. Have you been using the same type of tests since Wed? Sometimes different tests come up with different answers. I'd be surprised if the digi was wrong though? Hopefully all is well and af wont show

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 17:37

I did another on the same digital test then I've done another 2 cheapy ones. No idea what's going on. It's all I can think about, just need to know either way,

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 18/08/2017 17:40

@Penny With a digital can that... happen? 🤥 Are they all the same tests? Maybe everything's so faint still (wishful thinking)

WonderfullySunny · 18/08/2017 17:45

Oh Penny that's crap! No wonder you're thinking about it so much, I must admit I'd thought the digital ones to be more accurate as they pick up a lower hcg level. Did you buy the other tests from the same place? Perhaps they are the faulty ones. Fingers firmly crossed for you!

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 17:55

I bought both digital tests from the same place. The cheapies are from Amazon.

I thought a positive 5 days after dtd was too good to be true but where the heck is af. Now I'm panicking that it's early menopause ffs. (I'm nearly 38)

No symptoms at all today either.

Polly85 · 18/08/2017 17:56

@WonderfullySunny brilliant! What a clear line. CongratulationsFlowersFlowersFlowers

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 18:04

Congrats wonderfullysunny!

Betsyboo87 · 18/08/2017 18:19

oh no @Penny31! I didn't think digitals gave false positives either. Even if it was a false positive it doesn’t mean you’re out yet anyway. You still could have conceived last week and it’s not showing yet.

I don’t think it’s early menopause – although I worry my spotting is due to that and I’m 33!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 18/08/2017 18:23

Penny sounds like a chemical pregnancy? A positive 5 days after DTD is impossible though.. are you sure? It takes 6-12 days to implant before releasing HCG

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 18:31

Yep 100% sure and I know it sounds impossible which is why it must've been a faulty test I guess

intelligentPutty · 18/08/2017 18:33

Just caved and seen a bfn.
Just a waiting game now for af to arrive. ;(
Really f**king annoyed. I was so hopeful for this month to be the one....

So sorry @Penny31 I'm sure it's not the early menopause. I think we all start to scare ourselves when it's like this. But I think it's very rare for it to start so early. Least I hope so as I'm same age!

Penny31 · 18/08/2017 19:01

Sorry about your bfn @intelligentPutty how many dpo are you?

intelligentPutty · 18/08/2017 19:08

Thanks @Penny31. I needed someone to say that. ;)
I think I'm 11dpo. Not really sure when af due as every app says something different!
