Hi ladies. Hope you don't mind me joking. I'm TTCing for the first time and cycle one. I'm 7dpo and having cramps and pinkish light brownish mucus discharge late last night and this morning. I'm now experiencing a lot of cramping.

Any sign what this is?

Good luck to you all Grin

Cloud9889 · 24/05/2018 11:22

no yesterdays was dark but only when it fell in the urine sample so i am discounting those 2 that got dunked a bit too much. fingers crossed for us all.
@delilah7 that could be a sign is it normal for you?

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 11:24

@Cloud9889 no I never have anything like that not coloured anyways. Clear maybe a few times before when I wasn't trying!

Catspajamas85 · 24/05/2018 11:37

@cloud sounds very promising! Very excited for you!

@foxy I think they’re right, I used opk’s and I’m pretty regular. I shouldn’t have bothered testing today and just waited until tomorrow because of the whole 48 hours thing-I will never learn!

FoxyRoxy · 24/05/2018 12:54

My Amazon order from last night just turned up, 4 frers and some cheapies that came with. Now to try and not test...

@Delilah it could be implantation spotting! FX!

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 12:56

@FoxyRoxy so hard not to test.

Just spoke to a pharmacist who didn't seem to know ANYTHING said it could be an infection, from what?! Only thing I can guess is implantation bleeding. But now I wonder well was it?! I'm 7dpo.

FoxyRoxy · 24/05/2018 13:05

I have had spotting at 7dpo. She's currently eating a bacon butty in the garden so I'm crossing everything for you that that's what it is xx

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 13:08

@FoxyRoxy I hope so too! Bit concerned it's not but lol xx

Cloud9889 · 24/05/2018 13:15

did the digi it was a big fat 'not pregnant' - my 'sample' was definetly more dilute than this mornings though. I have heard they are not that sensitive so holding out hope I may only be 9 dpo and just tested early. I have decided to stick to IC tests until Saturday when I may splurge on a FRER again if no AF

Cloud9889 · 24/05/2018 13:16

altho one thing makes me feel a bit better is that I did a boots HPT when I was pregnant with my first a few days early/around time period due and it was negative. I got a didi 2-3 weeks on clearblue just 5/6 days later! is funny how both pregnancies for me have been different. When i was preggers with DS2 2 years later I had an early positive and tested similar time to when got a negative with DS1 and got a pregnant 1-2 weeks on digi

KimRobs87 · 24/05/2018 13:17

Sounding very positive ladies! @Cloud9889 - you must be on pins! Sounds very good though x

Hi @Delilah7 :) Fx it's IB x

@Cloud9889 that sounds really promising!! Hope it's darker again tomorrow if you retest.

I'm 8dpo today I think and definitely experiencing a bit of cramping today, also got a few proper stabby pains in my left side earlier. I don't usually get cramps before AF (actually I'm very lucky, I hardly get cramps at all) so I'm wondering if these mean something. I've got 2 shiny FRERs ready and waiting! I'm going to use one tomorrow and hold the other one for Wednesday if AF hasn't arrived.

Question - if I'm testing tomorrow should I use FMU or does it really matter? I know it's supposed to be strongest then, but then I'll only be 9dpo and my logic is if I am upduffed I'll be 9 hours more upduffed at 5pm than 8am, does that make sense?? Also I'm not sure if I got a BFP I could just go straight into work! Although might make my nightmare boss easier to deal with as I imagine fucking off on mat leave Grin

starsandstuff · 24/05/2018 13:26

Sorry @Cloud9889 , missed the update about the digi. But not yet... x

starsandstuff · 24/05/2018 13:26

*Not over yet 🙄

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 13:27

hey @starsandstuff can I ask you all something silly? Ive has what the doctors say is withdrawal bleed but not a period since I stopped. Which wasn't long ago. I can still get pregnant without that can't I? Xx

mostimproved · 24/05/2018 13:31

@Cloud9889 sounds very promising!

@Delilah7 I had the same yesterday and the day before - I have been googling and read plenty of stories of spotting/cramps around 7dpo that led to a BFP, but then I’m only reading what I want to hear!

I haven’t got any tests yet as I have no self control! I have amazon prime so going to order soon - I’ve seen a pack with a mix of FRER and ICs so will probably go for that one. Trying to wait until Monday but it’s really dragging now.

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 13:33

@mostimproved well I had my withdrawal bleed 5th may. And then apparently ovulated 17th so last week. We were very uncareful all that week obviously so I'm 7dpo. But I'm just confused as whether I can actually be pregnant if I am as I haven't had a 'natural period' since being off the pill! Xx

mostimproved · 24/05/2018 13:38

@Delilah7 yes you can definitely be pregnant - I got pregnant on the pill, so you can definitely get pregnant after being off it even if you haven’t a proper period!

Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 13:41

@mostimproved thank you!! So hoping this pink and light brownish mucus was an implantation bleed but doubt it haha xx

mostimproved · 24/05/2018 13:47

@Delilah7 good luck anyway - when are you planning on testing?

KimRobs87 · 24/05/2018 13:58

Well, I'm having more cramps today? Who knows what's going on? Lol x

OP posts:
Delilah7 · 24/05/2018 14:01

@mostimproved well if I do it 6 days before my period should be due is so i could do it Wednesday.... but I'm scared xx

FoxyRoxy · 24/05/2018 14:05

@starsandstuff if you can hold your wee for 4 hours at least then you can test in the evening, I got a bfp with evening wee at 9dpo after getting one in the morning with fmu. But you have to be able to hold it for at least that long or you'll just be wasting a test haha

8DaysAWeek · 24/05/2018 18:06

@starsandstuff IF I test tomorrow (and that's a big if as I have no tests so would have to go out and buy them) I'll be testing in the evening as I share your same logic! Surely 9.5dpo is better than 9dpo :p

I pee like three times a day at most and barely drink anything (so bad) so holding for a while isn't a problem for me. Bladder of steel!

TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong · 24/05/2018 18:08

Oh I'm torn... do I test tomorrow and expect bfn or hold out and live in hope for a bit longer?!??
