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

Biscay exactly. I'm sad I had a BFN this month but happy that hopefully my cycle is coming back. Hopefully.

EsmeGNU · 01/09/2017 18:16

We'll Ive bought no tests away for the weekend, although that took some will power. Hopefully I'll be to distracted to worry about testing. AF due Monday, but I've got zero symptoms so trying not to hold on to too much hope.
Those FRER's on three for two are the devils work when you are trying to stay strong.

Bubble04 · 01/09/2017 19:47

@EsmeGNU very impressed you've taken no tests with you!

I only have 1 FRER so trying to decide which day to use it... got internet cheapies to fill in the other days lol still spotting, but not feeling like it's my month. Really feeling down about this as DH isn't sure we should carry on trying, so this really could be my last chance Sad He'd love another baby but isn't sure it's sensible. Head or heart decision I guess... I'm all heart. Always have been

EsmeGNU · 01/09/2017 22:19

Oh @Bubble04 I'm sorry you're feeling so low. I've got my fingers and toes crossed that this is your month. Theo's whole process can be so disheartening, even more so if you are heart over head.

I think the not knowing and feeling out of control really gets you down. Be kind to yourself this weekend.

Freezingwinter · 02/09/2017 06:01

How's everyone this morning?
4 days till af is due.
I don't have any frers but two Internet cheapies, trying to decide if it's worth using one. I'm 10dpo I think. They're 25miu sensitivity

Sictransitgloria · 02/09/2017 06:42

Bfn this morning with fmu. Was with a savers cheapie. Af is 3 days late and i have been soooo nauseous (normal pre af but moreso this time). Being trolled by my own body, fabulous 😂

Freezingwinter · 02/09/2017 07:19

Can anyone see a faint line? Or do I have a case of line eye?! 10dpo, not a fmu, 25miu sensitivity test

Sictransitgloria · 02/09/2017 07:24

I can't @freezingwinter sorry. But I must admit my line eyes are rubbish! Fingers crossed for u

Freezingwinter · 02/09/2017 07:26

That's ok, it was stupid to test this early with such a cheap test. I am sure I can see sometbing, but I guess I will have to sit tight and wait and see!!

EsmeGNU · 02/09/2017 07:41

I might be able to see something @Freezingwinter. It's so hard not to test! I got a stark white at 10dpo and was so frustrated. I've got to at least hold out until Sunday when I get home now.

felicityheather · 02/09/2017 07:49

I did an internet cheapie this morning too and got another bfn. I think I'm 11dpo. But my temp has dropped massively so I wonder if AF is coming early. In the mean time I went back to sleep and had the most realistic dream ever that I had s positive and was telling my DH. Feel crappy now. Sad

PabloEscobarlo · 02/09/2017 07:57

Bfn for me too, af due mon/tue :-(

Bubble04 · 02/09/2017 08:03

BFN here too

Opensesame1 · 02/09/2017 09:13

11 dpo today and no tests to use as I already used them on the really early days where I was guaranteed a negative!! When will I learn!! More ordered but likely to be Monday at the earliest before they arrive! I have a very busy day today and tomoro so I am hoping to distract myself until then. Still not having many symptoms other than wee pains and tenderness on the same side i ovulated from. Has anyone else that feels ovulation pain continued to feel tenderness on that side? I am starting to think it mite just run on from ov and not be anything to do with conception! 😪

Poptart4 · 02/09/2017 09:45

11dpo and bfn. Really think I'm out now. Surely a frer would pick up a positive 4 days before AF is due? Sick of it all now. I've a few days off work to celebrate my birthday, which is on Tuesday and instead of enjoying it I'm wishing it away so I can test again :(

felicityheather · 02/09/2017 10:19

@Poptart4 I know the feeling. On a lovely weekend away and just want to get home so I will know if AF is coming.

RandomUsernameHere · 02/09/2017 10:31

Sorry to hear you're all not having much luck at the moment ladies Sad
Does anyone know if cheap tests are any less reliable than expensive ones? (I don't mean for early testing but for testing from the day AF is due). I got 2 for £2 from Wilko, the pack says they are over 99% accurate.

PabloEscobarlo · 02/09/2017 10:39

I'm really sceptical of IC I don't know why.

The Lloyds pharmacy Ones and wilko ones are good so I hear! Bit cheaper than frer!

RandomUsernameHere · 02/09/2017 11:20

Yes loads cheaper. Meant to say 2 for £1 not £2.
I would also be a bit sceptical of IC, although never used one. I guess anyone could be making/selling them without any quality controls.

Bubble04 · 02/09/2017 11:22

That's true... I've only been using the internet ones so far. Maybe a trip to the shops is in order Wink

PabloEscobarlo · 02/09/2017 11:34

That's so true @RandomUsernameHere ! Sorry we've sent you shopping @Bubble04 Smile

Bubble04 · 02/09/2017 12:03

Haha to be fair It doesn't take much x

Bubble04 · 02/09/2017 12:14

Still brown spotting and still BFN... I am fed up of moping. I'm going to buy in food for packed lunches, raid my mothers attic for wool, go and watch hubby play cricket, and buy some decent tests that I don't need a microscope to see. I might even write a timetable for my first week with my new class (but that might be a step too far!) Smile

felicityheather · 02/09/2017 14:07

Hmmm ewcm streaked white and yellow. Very odd for me. Agh!! I'm so obsessive!!

Llanali · 02/09/2017 15:21

Afternoon ladies :)

Apologies for crashing in. I had somewhat fallen off the proverbial wagon: TTC was stressing me out so I banned POAS for a while.

I've now clambered back on board and POAS.... could anybody care to line spot pleasssseeeee??
