Thank you @Sydbound27 and @Unicornsandrainbows1. I think I'm in denial because I've not really had any symptoms and thought I was testing too early anyway so it I completely threw me!

Worried it could be a false positive for whatever reason, will test again tomorrow morning and then maybe it will sink in.

Can't wait to tell my husband for his birthday on Thursday, now I've just got to keep my mouth shut until then 🙊

@Polly85 5 days early, could it be implantation bleeding? X

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 15/08/2017 09:33

@Nicolle I dunno it's got the dye and everything 😊

northernlass81 · 15/08/2017 09:33

Nicolle woohoo! Greta positive. Just got a white as white BFN this morn so I think yesterday's test was definitely showing an evap. 10dpo today so feel it should be showing by now or could it still be too early?

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 15/08/2017 09:36

@nothernlass it could still be too early. In May I tested 10dpo and got a negative, then 12dpo was a positive

WonderfullySunny · 15/08/2017 09:43

Can i join in late to the party? Congratulations to the BFPs so far, great that the OP has one as well it's been lovely reading through everyone's posts so far. Polly85 I'm sorry to read you're out, as previous poster said as AF is so early could it be implantation bleed? I'm on my second cycle since coming of the pill so still have no clue as to cycle length, but AF due 19th.

SydBound27 · 15/08/2017 10:43

@unicorns you're giving me hope! I got my BFP with my DD on CD12 and if I know myself I'm pretty sure I was testing for the days leading up to that (I'm a POAS-aholic). Thanks for the reminder!

Hi @Sunny welcome to the club! When are you planning to test? Are you TTC for DC #1?

ThreeAfter30 · 15/08/2017 11:36

Eeeeeek @nicolle!!! Congrats thats a glaring positive!!!

Aww polly sorry to hear that 😔

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 15/08/2017 11:41

Ha oh so much pressure now @SydBound!!

So probably a bit tmi but I went for a pee just now and generally my cm has been pretty watery, except atm it looked pretty thick... I'm so confused and only 9dpo. Save me

SydBound27 · 15/08/2017 12:00

@unicorns I'll obviously blame you if af comes now! Wink I also have thick/watery white cm. Not chunky (bleugh) or completely transparent and definitely not going away. It's a good sign I think as I'm usually dry or sticky before af

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 15/08/2017 12:05

@SydBound Screw it, I've said it now Grin
Well usually I kind of dry out so to see that was a bit of a surprise. Even if it is just the once.

Ashbeckk · 15/08/2017 12:09

Congrats to the host of the thread and others who got their bfp. Hope the next 8 months goes smoothly for you Flowers

I am pretty sure am out as I did a frer this morning and was whiter than snow. Not even a hint of a line

AF due either on 18 or 19 so not holding out much hope now.
Good luck to all the remaining peeps!

MeMyselfAndZ · 15/08/2017 12:12

Can I join. A little late I know. Congratulations to all the BFPs

Ovia says I can test in 4 days and on day 23 of cycle.
I got big smiley on day 14. So does that make me 9dpo.
When should I test?
Itching to POAS now but it's middle of the day. Not much point??

Betsyboo87 · 15/08/2017 12:36

Nicolle congrats! That's a clear bfp to me! Wishing you all the best for the next 8 months.

Polly sorry to hear af arrived.

I had to get up in the night to pee (v unusual for me!) so I'm clinging to hope.

WonderfullySunny · 15/08/2017 12:51

Thanks SydBound27, yup TTC for first DC...ooooo I have the same cm as you and unicorns! Intriguing as also normally dry before AF...

Chooklass · 15/08/2017 13:10

@MeMyselfAndZ I think ovulation should be day after the smiley face, then start counting the day after that as 1dpo (please someone correct me if I'm wrong!), so if your smiley was day 14, 1dpo would be day 16? What day are you on now? I don't think it's an exact science, annoyingly!! (If only) xx

SydBound27 · 15/08/2017 13:12

@MeMyself Hrmmm I would start testing at 10dpo but I'm an obsessive POAS-er so maybe others should jump in! Welcome to the group.

@Betsy - oooh! How many dpo are you?

Betsyboo87 · 15/08/2017 14:14

@Syd I'm 12/13dpo and currently cleaning the oven to try to distract myself from wanting to test! I am determined that the one test I have will be my bfp one so trying to wait until Friday.

MeMyselfAndZ · 15/08/2017 14:15

Hi @Chooklass. REally. That's annoying. I'm on cd 23 now so that would put me at only 7dpo.
And we only dtd in run up to ov. Not after. (Only that night).
I only have one tube following ectopic 1 year ago and I think this was a Good Tube month. Iykwim !!

Thanks for the welcome @SydBound27
Happy to be part of a group of like minded people. Grin

HoisinSource · 15/08/2017 14:27

Hi everyone sorry to gatecrash! Congrats on all those BFPs! I'm due on 18th (Friday) and roughly 11/12 DPO, however I've just tested and stark white BFN - any hope for me?? Sad been trying ttc +1 year and had 2 MCs.

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 15/08/2017 14:39

Ofc there's hope! You're still in the run up and it all depends on the implant date if you've conceived so there's always a chance that you're just a day or so out :)

Chooklass · 15/08/2017 17:50

@MeMyselfAndZ don't take my word for it though, my knowledge is just from internet 'research'! It does say on my opk that I should ovulate 12-36 hours after smiley face though - but smiley face indicates best time to DTD, so you may have timed it perfectly! Sorry to hear of your ectopic, that must have been awful. My friend had that last year and got a BFP 2 or 3 months later, so definitely possible - fingers crossed for you. X

Chooklass · 15/08/2017 17:52

@Betsyboo87 ... admiring your willpower! X

northernlass81 · 15/08/2017 18:24

Well, I have absolutely zero will power and just got this on an afternoon POAS. 10dpo today. The line looks thicker in real life. Does it look hopeful? Will test again on a fmu tomorrow.

Anyone due to test around 18th Aug?
Betsyboo87 · 15/08/2017 18:25

@Chooklass me too! The only thing keeping me from testing is a can't take seeing another bfn. I'd rather just get af.

Betsyboo87 · 15/08/2017 18:27

@northernlass81 I can see something! Maybe try a frer tomorrow as they're usually clearer?
