@Cocobana aww ur little one certainly sounds the cutest! It's amazing how clever they are and we don't even know it! Watching how quickly my dd has grown up into a beautiful little lady has really made me slow it down with my ds! I'm just enjoying every minute with them and trying drink it all in before they turn into teenagers lol!

Yes my line is darker today :) I think today's the day I finally believe it 😂 I just really didn't think we dtd enough that week as it was just on the 14th/15th and I got the darkest opk on 16th then nothing after.
dh was like yeah its happening...we kind of looked at our two fighting over toast this morning and I said we must be crazy 😂👍🏼 im excited now though girls I won't lie ❤️

@Cocobana Saturday is not far away!
What have u got the internet ones? I really liked the home bargain ones scarlet recommended me very sensitive.

@Scarletrose18 damn that AF but 3rd time lucky?! Positive thinking u got this! The cycle comes back round so quickly you'll be doing opks before u know it! Or do u think ur going to take a break from them? I think it's a good idea if u feel like it will ease some of the stress? Xxx

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 11:23

@Mfbroome aww thank you, it is isn’t it, I can’t believe how fast ds is growing up. I feel like he surprises everyday with new little developments. Me and dh are constantly saying ‘ds we didn’t know you could do this or that.’ He’s getting such a big boy.
Haha about your little ones and the toast battle, I bet dc3 will just fit right in and it’ll be like they’ve always been there. It’s so exciting!! It’s fantastic you have got that darker line and can relax and think yay you’re pregnant now!

Ladies I’ve been abit naughty and took a test this morning! How bad is my will power. I wish I’d waited because I’m so confused.
There is a squinter of a second line when I tilt it in certain light but it’s so so faint the camera won’t pick it up. I’ve tried ages to get the camera to focus to show you but it won’t pick it up. I’m thinking evap line or chemical are still possibilities so I don’t want to count it as pfp. I keep looking at it and obsessing now. It’s going to seem like j enternity until tomorrow morning. The tests I’m using are from online and 25miu, I don’t have any of the 10miu left typical!

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 11:24

Forgot to say I’m 9dpo today *

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 11:25

b*

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 11:27

Oh my goodness! @Cocobana what day are u in? 9dpo? It's a complete possibility?! How crazy is that!!!
What about holding ur wee for 4/5 hours and trying again this arvo? I did that Sunday and the line was still there same shade from the morning.
Eeeeeek! Evap line is defo more silvery and after a few hours I think u can tell it has no colour to it

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 11:29

Just read u said 9dpo after sorry lol

People can get it at 9dpo!
I reckon if I had tested 2 days before I would of had a smidge?!

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 11:35

@Mfbroome I will try holding my urine and not drinking much. If I don’t manage that I’ll restart tomorrow morning. That’s it even if I test again and see the squinter a second time it’ll look more promising. It’s so faint but does look pinky grey it’s so hard to tell though as really faint and thin. I mean even the camera won’t pick it up, I have to tilt it in the light to see it. It’s going to kill me not to talk about it with dh but I’ve decided I’m going to wait until I definitely know because I want to surprise him. I also don’t want to get our hopes up and then cause him disappointment.

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 11:36

Retest* I mean

I’ve got such a shock but won’t get my hopes up until I know for sure.

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 11:40

This is the thing I've found with testing early is the uncertainty! It's a killer 😂🤣🙈

Yeah if u can hold and try again do! Ur right it u see it again then ...winner!
But also if u don't don't be discouraged if might only be detectable in that real undiluted urine! Atleast it won't be that long until tom but that point lol!
What time did u do it. I feel like with mine they dried out and became slightly more noticeable x

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 11:41

But this is all good, it could be picking up the hormone u have that's starting to build! X

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 12:03

Haha @Mfbroome it is. It’s def a line I was in denial at first but it’s there but so faint. It’s just what kind of line it is that I need to find out and only time will tell. It could be evap or chemical as it’s so early at just 9dpo. Thank you so much for your support and kind words, I don’t know what I’d do without this thread and you lovely ladies. I took the test this morning but with undiluted urine. I’ve rechecked it and it does seem abit more noticeable but not quite enough for the camera to catch it. I’m going to take another in afew hours but I find it difficult to not drink much as I get thirsty lol so it could be first thing tomorrow.

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 12:20

Maybe take little sips and hold 😂😂 I'm being totally selfish I need to know 😂

Oh come on! This is what we are here for, thankyou so much for asking me how I'm getting on aswell :) it's lovely to chat away to people who are interested 😂
I feel the same about the whole chemical thing but all u can do it fingers crossed he hormone gets greater and that doesn't happen. I feel like I'm not in until after AF bit heaven forbid anything did happen it still can after AF. But it's just the motions we go through isn't it! Ita natural to worry, we could potentially have the same due date! I was due Friday/sat x

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 12:44

Haha that’s a good idea, sips it shall me! It’s awful not knowing. I feel pregnant and have had an unsettled stomach and funny cramps but I don’t want to curse it as i think it can all be psychological. I was just saying to @scarlet this morning that all of the symptoms can so easily be something else. It’ll probably be AF on its way lol.
Exactly I just have to hope that line gets darker and isn’t an evap as well...
that’s crazy. When would you have been due a/f? I’m due on Saturday.

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 12:49

Oh sorry are you due this Saturday?

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 13:18

Aww and you have a nice dark line now so try not to worry because you’ll be fine. I know easier said than done x

Mfbroome · 29/01/2019 13:26

Yeah af due Friday or Saturday 1st 2nd so we are similar cycles just diff ovulation? I'm normally 30/31 days

I bought more frer tests yday lol for tomo and Thursday just to check in on that line lol. Or maybe I might skip tomo and do Thursday.

You never know it maybe perfect symptoms! Messes with ur head doesn't it, like even when they r there u think am I imagining this?
I have a good feeling about it coco!
I would certainly say I have been really gassy since ovulation! Something I suffered with with #1 pregnancy! I know u said u were gassy x

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 13:56

Thanks @Mfbroome I’ve failed then holding it in test as couldn’t wait lol and my urine was getting too diluted to even bother testing. I’m goinf to try and relax and take my mind off it and then test again tomorrow morning first thing. It could very easily be an evap line so I’m not getting my hopes up just yet. I’m not mentioning it to dh until I’m certain. I’ve even gone as far as binning the test lol to stop me looking at it as I was becoming far too obsessed!
That’s good, you could wait a couple days or just take one each morning if it makes your feel better. I know I’d be taking one each morning as I did when I was pregnant with with ds because I couldn’t believe it. ✨✨✨

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 13:56

the*

MummyBearBoo · 29/01/2019 17:05

Thanks @Scarletrose18
Congratulations @Mfbroome sounds like you def got a BFP now!!
@Cocobana - fingers crossed for you testing tomorrow I'm not gonna test til 9th if my AF doesn't start then or earlier which hopefully it doesn't - I feel like I'm running out of time coz I've just turned 34!! X

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 17:18

Thanks @MummyBearBoo I feel like it was an evap line now but we’ll see what tomorrow morning brings. I don’t blame you, I wish I’d just waited instead of being impatient! Despite the possible evap line I haven’t got my hopes up so at least that’s one thing lol

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 17:20

Oh I know what you mean on running out of time, I feel exactly the same. I want to be done having dc before 35 because of increased risk and also clock ticking!

Scarletrose18 · 29/01/2019 17:45

Just catching up, went out straight after work and not long in. And ooooooo what a read! @coco oh my goodness a line!!! I cant wait to see if it goes darker tomorrow. Please post a pic as soon as you wake up and test lol That would be so amazing. So would that be everyone getting a bfp on their third cycle? Is that right? Im sure you are dying for tomorrow to come. xo

Cocobana · 29/01/2019 18:01

Aww thanks @Scarletrose18 guess what I found one left of the 10miu free tests in my draw inbetween the leaflet! I’ve kept it aside for the morning so if that comes back an bfn I will def know it was an evap line this morning on the 25miu one. I feel like it’s too good to be true so it probably is an evap and it was so light it could have quite easily have been. I do hope it is third time lucky for everyone that would be amazing. How are you today? How has your day been?

Scarletrose18 · 29/01/2019 18:33

@mfbroome Yaay to the darker line, and congratulations now at it sinking in more ☺ 9 months is a long time, bu then your dc will be a bit older and more mature so that dc3 comes along and you have 2 babysitters/helpers 😁😁. Will you still be able to ski next month?
Im really not sure what to do, I feel like I need to change something to be more chilled out... but im scared of getting my fertile window wrong. Lol

How many dpo are you now @mummyb Hoping you get good news and a bfp in Feb. You are still young! Your chances are still so high, im sure it will happen for you xx

@pastasaucehoarder how are you feeling today?
I was just flicking back a couple of pages and realised when I said I was going to create a thread to see if people had sucess getting preg without opks; what I meant was I wondered if people had more success when they stopped opks, charting, apps etc and just relaxed than they did checking and charting everything or did it not matter ... But I just read your response and didnt realise you must of thought I meant could you get preg without opks 😂🤣😂 I felt I needed to clarify that incase you thought I was nuts and a bit stupid😂🤣😂 I always type too fast and dont recheck until after, Im smart really... I think 😁😂😁
