Some of you may recognize my username from the pregnancy and miscarriage boards. DH and I have been TTC since September 2016 and I had a MMC in January followed by an early MC in May. We took a break but got back on the wagon last month and this is our second month of TTC again.

I think I ovulated yesterday and we have DTD three times in the last four days, so I'm hopeful this might be the month for us! AF is due on 3rd September and I know it's going to be a long wait. Anyone want to join for some 2ww support? Smile

Bubble04 · 29/08/2017 14:29

@AlexsMum89 well, I think we all deserve it! 😀😂

EsmeGNU · 29/08/2017 14:40

This is the best idea, although if all us go I bet someone will bring tests.

I'm 7dpo now, have a snotty nose and have had afew dizzy spells today. I couldn't see straight for 2-3 mins while in work today. I think its too early for pregnancy symptoms. I'm probably just coming down with something but I can't help but think "is this a sign?"

Fia256 · 29/08/2017 15:48

Well I'm now freaking out Sad yesterday I got a light but clearly there bfp on a frer (around 4pm) then I tested again this morning so only 12 hours or so afterwards and not surprisingly the line was no darker

Caved and used my last frer I had and the line is practically non existent Confused I don't have any bleeding or anything though! And it can't be down to not being fmu as yesterday's wasn't! I hope this isn't the end before it's barely started SadSad

gerriberry · 29/08/2017 16:00

@fia256 Could it be that you have had more of a fluid intake this afternoon? She is AF due?

Fia256 · 29/08/2017 16:04

Well I did think that but I've only had half of a small bottle of water all day and my wee was definitely not diluted in colour!
I just want to sit and sob, we've already been through so much, just feel like why is it happening to me again Sad

Here's the tests in order. Top was 4pm yesterday, middle 6am this morning and bottom 4pm this afternoon. It's not looking good

gerriberry · 29/08/2017 16:10

@fia256 - don't give up hope!! Try testing again with fmu xxx

RandomUsernameHere · 29/08/2017 16:10

I don't think it's anything to worry about just because the line is faint. Try not to worry, I'm sure everything is fine if you haven't had any adverse symptoms.

Feeling a bit stupid for asking, but my understanding was that you only have to test once and if you get a BFP, then no matter how light or dark the line is then that means you are pg with over 99% certainty. Can anyone enlighten me?

AlexsMum89 · 29/08/2017 16:14

@Fia I think you are a victim of 'crazy over testing syndrome'.
I would wager that if you take a test tomorrow with first thing in the morning wee, it will be the darkest yet.
Try not to get upset, I really don't think anything is wrong xxx

AlexsMum89 · 29/08/2017 16:18

@Esme that really made me laugh, it's like when someone is designated to bring the beers, but with us lot we only care about who's brought the FRERs hahahaha

Bubble04 · 29/08/2017 16:22

@Fia256 it may be faint, but it's still there, and it's still a BFP. There are so many variables that can affect how faint the line is. Even if you've not drunk much you can still have dilute urine if you've not sweat much. You could have held it in the wee a different length of time. Try not to panic. I'm sure if you test tomorrow first thing it will be darker xxx

PabloEscobarlo · 29/08/2017 16:59

😂😂 frer room service.

Well I think I'm out, I'm wiping pink blood again after nothing for a while. Wonder if it's early af

DragonsandDungeons · 29/08/2017 17:10

Fia I hope you're okay. I would try not to worry but I know that's easier said than done.

My lines are like your lightest one too and I'm also not hopeful. Fingers crossed for you.

Cinnamonstoothbrush · 29/08/2017 17:40

Hi all,
Congrats to those of you who've already got your bfp :)
Newbie here and latecomer to the tww party- another teacher having a busy summer of baby making!

Apps etc put O about 7 days ago but from cm I think it was at start of fw so maybe 11 days ago
Ttc baby number 1 - second month of trying. Tried a bit last year but no luck so had a break from trying.
Going away for a couple of days so fx I can make it until Sunday before testing! AF due 5th sept.
Been feeling very sick, which is unlike me and last two days have been having cramps- no bleeding or anything yet.
I can't wait anymore! Three tests in the cupboard!
Good luck to everyone

Fia256 · 29/08/2017 17:59

Thankyou all xx
Nipped straight to the shops and bought some more frer and also super drug ones. Tested again on diluted urine as I couldn't bare to wait until morning and while the line is still light, it's there, and much more clear than the near negative one I did earlier and looks more like my two bfps.

I'm going to just fear the worst and assume it may be a chemical pregnancy, as I find it easier to think negative! But if it is, I just hope the bleeding starts soon to put me out of my misery x

DragonsandDungeons · 29/08/2017 18:18

Fia that's good news, I hope it's not a chemical.

I'm pretty sure mine is as I've had a load of heavy bleeding and "strings" of stuff. Sigh.

Opensesame1 · 29/08/2017 18:41

I am now 7dpo and having af type cramps and backache..like if I didn't know my days I would swear the witch was on her way!! My plan not to symptom spot this month is going realllly well!! 🤣🤣

felicityheather · 29/08/2017 19:40

Ah!! I failed and tested early. Not even FMU! I just feel like I'm going going crazy. Loads of creamy cm, achy veiny boobs, super hungry/nauseas and cramping. But I think I'm only 7dpo so it must be all in my head! Even if I am pregnant the chances of a positive today were so slim. Absolutely no point. Just super impatient!!!

Fia256 · 29/08/2017 19:50

Think I definitely had a dodgy test earlier. The screen area is darker/funny colour which seems to be hiding the line. The test I did after that is actually the clearest bfp of all I've done so calming down a bit now!

Dragons so sorry your going through a chemical. They are horrible to get a positive test and then it be taken away from you so quickly xx

felicityheather · 29/08/2017 20:18

Glad you're feeling better @Fia x
