Thanks @Fia256 ! This is mornings repeat from other test in the pack so pretty sure it's positive not evap now :) (came up pre 2 min on both too) . Going to wait a few days so hopefully hormone levels go up then confirm
on a digital :)

By the way don't give up for this month because sore breasts so early will just be the progesterone effect which would occur either way :)

MyEternalSunshine · 17/11/2017 11:21

Obviously I meant hopping but hoping works too Wink

Fia256 · 17/11/2017 11:28

Ooh yes that’s definite bfp too! Congrats @MyEternalSunshine

MyEternalSunshine · 17/11/2017 11:42

Oo thanks @Fia256 ! I'll test again in a few days to check it's getting darker Smile

MrsKrantz · 17/11/2017 12:22

Hello, I've been absent since my first post on this thread. Trying to keep my mind elsewhere as last month I was obsessed. Congrats on all the bfps :)

Can I have some eyes please to take a look at my tests, the bottom two were taken with fmu and faint lines (that I can see, not sure if it's just me) appeared within three minutes. The top frer was taken 20 mins ago and even fainter line appeared within three minutes. Do these seem positive? I was hoping for a darker line on the frer but it's pretty much non existent.

I'm 12dpo, period due today. Thank you!

MrsKrantz · 17/11/2017 12:28

I see a line @myeternalsunshine :)

Owlpatrol · 17/11/2017 12:48

I see a line!

Ah @Fia256 fingers crossed this month I'm secretly really hoping it is for both of us. I did an opk this morning and a positive so need to dtd today for sure however the shifts of my dp might mean we can't Confused

Gem173 · 17/11/2017 12:53

@MrsKrantz I see a faint line on nearly all of them! Congratulations! Hoping it stays positive !

MrsKrantz · 17/11/2017 13:03

Thanks @gem173, that's my worry now! Always worrying!!

Somethininthewater · 17/11/2017 13:14

AF FIIIIINALLY ARRIVED!!!!! 45 days since she was last here(properly). We dtd last night so that may have hurried her along. Still quite light but I’m taking this as a proper period. Can finally stop poas and get my life back. Don’t think we’re going to TTC again so I’m going back on the pill today. Thanks for all your help and advice. Hood luck to everyone with their bfp’s, bumps and beyond xxx

Gem173 · 17/11/2017 13:18

@Somethininthewater, glad it’s come back! Good luck to you in future

MyEternalSunshine · 17/11/2017 13:23

@MrsKrantz I see lines on all of them! Congratulations 🎉

Somethininthewater · 17/11/2017 13:25

Thanks gem. You too x

Fia256 · 17/11/2017 13:34

Ahh I hope you manage to @Owlpatrol! I’ve been terrible this month, normally I’m too tired and go to sleep early. this month if I did that, I’ve woken in the middle of the night and woke dh up to make sure we did it enough 😂. And last night the poor bloke had a temperature and felt shit but I didn’t let him off as it was ovulation day lol!!

I can definitely see a line on all tests @MrsKrantz congratulations!

And @Somethininthewater I’m glad you finally know where you are at now but sad for you if this month has put you off Sad. You could always start temping, doing opks and seeing today as a fresh start to monitor everything?!

MrsKrantz · 17/11/2017 13:42

Thank you :) I'm a little shocked. I'll try a digital next week and will call for midwife appointment after that. Good luck to everyone. I've got health issues and a borderline short luteal phase so it's a bit unexpected. I did take vitamin b6 and vitamin b complex this month which might have made a difference. I hope it sticks.

Somethininthewater · 17/11/2017 14:06

We already have 3 dc. We said we’d try once and, if it didn’t happen, we’d see it as a sign. And, to be honest, after that nightmare of a month, I don’t think I could handle another cycle of TTC! My neves(and bank account) are in tatters!

LostMyBaubles · 17/11/2017 14:11

Congrats mrsk ❤

Somethin glad you know where you are. Good luck with everything x

Fia I surprised hubby this month lol
He knows (obv) we are ttc but for him it's just JS so he's oblivious to the rest of it.

He's a lil worn out though lol 😶
Don't think we've dtd so much with the 3 kids in the house too lol

Sunshine1984 · 17/11/2017 14:17

Hello,

I’m another lurker - well, I joined a chat back in July when I first started TTC after coming off the pill, had every pregnancy symptom going and made myself stay away for a little while as I was going crazy 🙈

I’m 33
TTC#1
Cycle#5

Every month, I am hopeful, have the odd symptom - particularly sore boobs, then AF arrives and the cycle starts again. I also have never noticed (including up until now) the ‘fertile’ mucus everyone talks about!

This month, i used opk sticks for the first time (& a tracking app) I once again got sore boobs & slight cramping about 9 dpo which lasted 2-3 days. Sore boobs are normal for me since stopping the pill.

I haven’t taken a test up until now as I haven’t been late and was scared of the disappointment!

2 days before af due, I started to get some weird cramping. Some similar to menstrual, other like a sharp shortliived pain in a place I’ve never felt before. Slight back ache & weird hunger where I’ve needed to eat to stop me feeling nauseas. The cramps did get bad enough that I was convinced af was about to arrive. To the point I told my OH it is AF time.

Anyway, I am now 1 day late so nervously just took myself to Morrison’s and bought a £3.50 Morrison’s branded pink dye test.

I have my BFP!

I’m nervous and I’m praying it’s here to stay! I’m sorry for the essay (I haven’t even told my OH yet!) but I’ve been scanning these pages for months looking for answers & wanting to understand signs! So I hope this is useful and can bring a bit of hope to someone else (eg never spotting ‘fertile’ cm made me start to believe I wasn’t even ovulating!)

Best of luck to you all! Sending positive thoughts & baby dust! 😊

Gem173 · 17/11/2017 14:29

@Sunshine1984 congratulations!! You have given me a lot of hope!! I’m praying for my bfp next week! Hope it’s here to stay! :)
