Clutching at straws....anyone else feel like this and get a bfp?

Ok so I'm 7dpo and feeling really irritable and teary. When I was pregnant (miscarriage) I didn't get any pms symptoms so I'm assuming this means AF will be on her way next week. Anyone feel like this and still get their BFP??? Clutching at straws now but trying to keep myself positive x

@mamabear05 have you tested yet?

mamabear05 · 23/01/2018 20:01

@ew1990 yeah I tested this morning with a frer and this evening with an ic. I'm only 9dpo so likely it's too early but it was bfn anyway. I got a positive at 10dpo last time (miscarried at 6 weeks) though so worried I'm out. Even more emotional and teary today so the pmt is well settling in ready for af at the weekend :(

Your not out till af shows, fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

RowenaDedalus · 24/01/2018 06:55

Good luck mamabear. I had bfn yesterday on 10dpo and af felt like it was just about to arrive last night. It hadn't by morning so I took a frer and got this 😊 But it was still negative on internet cheapo one so I am holding off thinking about it until I see it on a digital display.

Aww congratulations @RowenaDedalus I'm so happy for you. I tested with a frer again about an hour ago and still negative. Not even a hint of a line. Considering I'm 10dpo I'm 99.9% sure I'm out now. Got a really heavy feeling in my uterus too so expecting AF any minute :(

RowenaDedalus · 24/01/2018 07:03

It's such a rollercoaster of emotions. Fingers firmly crossed for you that af does not show up!!!

greeny506 · 24/01/2018 21:54

Good luck @mamabear05 - you're not out until AF shows!!!

mamabear05 · 25/01/2018 19:42

@greeny506 OMG, am actually in shock. I've just got a very faint bfp on a FRER. Would upload pic but I've already reached my daily limit on another thread apparently lol! Was so so so sure I was out. Have had bad AF type cramps for the last 2/3 days. Worried though as I'm 10/11dpo and it's so faint. I got a bfp at 10dpo last time and it was darker than this so whilst I'm currently overjoyed I'm now panicking it's going to be a chemical haha 😂 x

@mamabear05 I was so rooting for you!! Congratulations, I told you the only symptoms I had was cramps like AF was gunna show

mamabear05 · 25/01/2018 21:07

@ew1990 thank you so much! I just hope this one sticks. So worried about a chemical as the line was sooooo faint and I'm 10/11dpo testing with a FRER xx

wishfulthinker81 · 25/01/2018 21:17

Eeek @mamabear05 !!!! Post a pic tomorrow on this thread, you should be allowed to then, they restrict you incase you're spamming. Could you see the faint line through the plastic or did you take the strip out of the holder? Only reason I ask is because my FRER today is showing up but I took it out of the holder to be able to photograph it 🙈 now I'm not sure if it's an evap line 😩

What's your cycle normally?

HoneyCake86 · 25/01/2018 21:57

Eeek @mamabear05 will be waiting for the pic! Try not to worry keep the stress hormones awayFlowers

ChilliMum · 25/01/2018 22:10

Congratulations mamabear, I see the thread has moved on from your original post but I wanted to tell you that the cramps (imvho) are a good sign.

I had major pmt symptoms and cramping (and morning sickness ) with both my dc but nothing with the 2 pregnancies I miscarried.

mamabear05 · 25/01/2018 22:19

@wishfulthinker81 no I didn't take it out of the holder (this time lol). It was weird actuallly...yesterday I did one at 6am and got a little excited as it immediately had a stark white line through it which I'd never seen before on a frer. It disappeared though as it dried and I read these can be quite common so put it down as a negative. Tonight the same white line came up but within 3 or so mins went pink. It's really hard to see in the photos but it's there in real life. I usually have cycles between 29-32 days ovulating around day 16/17 but this time it's not been a proper cycle as such as I miscarried on the 27th Dec and we started ttc again straight away. Opks confirmed ovulation about 10 days ago though.

@ChilliMum thank you I really hope so! I had no symptoms at all except fatigue when I had my miscarriage. Didn't even get proper cramps really when it happened so I'm hoping all the pms and cramps this time mean a sticky bean!

@HoneyCake86 😊 thank you. I'll try and post a pic ASAP but it is hard to see, I promise you it's there tho haha

mamabear05 · 25/01/2018 22:38

🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks @ew1990 and sorry @wishfulthinker81 I've just reread your post and realised you mean you might have a second line too! Fingers crossed for you hunni. Let us know how you get on when you retest x

OP posts:
wishfulthinker81 · 26/01/2018 01:43

@mamabear05 I stupidly just retested and it was bfn 😭 I kept it in the casing this time. No af yet so don't know what's going on especially because I feel like I'm pregnant 😩 got one FRER left and a boots own early one so I'll try to wait til Sunday to see if anything changes.

mamabear05 · 26/01/2018 07:03

@wishfulthinker81 it may still be too early to see properly hunni. Test again in a few days xx🙏

HoneyCake86 · 26/01/2018 08:19

@mamabear05 did you manage to put a pic? I cant find what people are talking about 🙈

mamabear05 · 26/01/2018 18:52

@HoneyCake86 sorry I've only just got in from work. I've attached the pics from last night and tonight. You can hardly see it in the pics but it is there in real life albeit faint! Going to use fmu Sunday and see if it's any darker before I get too excited x
