Anyone out there want to join me in trying for a successful Feb?! I’m sure there are loads of us out there can can support and answer questions :)
I’m 35, TTC #2 and have been trying for 4 months or so. My Son is almost 16 months so out of that baby stage which was so much fun (although this age defo has its perks).

Ok I caved and tested, I think I see a SUPER almost non existent line but the other half disagrees and thinks I'm reaching 😩😩
I'm telling myself either way I'm not out yet until af comes but I'm now feeling like I'm getting pms cramps and back ache 👎🏻👎🏻

@ale2992
Post a pic I love a good squint!

ale2992 · 25/02/2019 20:59

@Mooey89 it's actually non existent on the photos 😩

Niffler2019 · 25/02/2019 21:04

Wow congratulations on all the BFPs!!! 🎉

I think I'm out for this month, only managed to DTD on CD10 & day 14. I think hubby is having 2nd thoughts, he seems to have rapidly gone off sex 😂

I didn't think I'd be feeling so disappointed. This is only our first month after stopping the pill so I knew it wasn't likely. I think my age is turning me into a mad hormonal woman!

Good luck to anyone testing over the next couple of days 🤞

Unsureursula · 25/02/2019 21:07

@Doris19 thank you so much and I’ve everything crossed for you!! Yes really surprising how many symptoms I have- any smell and a wave of nausea hits! Tbh the cramping is the most uncomfortable bit so far! Told my DP this eve but we’re going to wait until my appt on Fri to be sure xx

muddypuddlejumping · 25/02/2019 21:52

Congratulations to all those with bfps. There are so many!
Trying to manage expectations atm as this was one of our best months for trying but I'm not really feeling many symptoms now. 9dpo and have had a bit of cramping/ pressure/ back ache for two days but it's all probably af symptoms. Did have a bit of jelly-like cm (tmi!) at 7 and 8dpo but not sure if that means anything. Oddly my boobs aren't sore at all and normally they are after ovulation. Af due Friday.
Good luck to all those testing again tomorrow and hoping for darker lines.

Unsureursula · 25/02/2019 22:02

@muddypuddlejumping fingers x for you too!! Oddly enough my boobs aren’t sore at all! But the cramping and back pain you talk about- I’ve had lots of that! Wishing you lots of dust xx

muddypuddlejumping · 25/02/2019 22:08

@Unsureursula thank you
It's been so many months now it's more realistic not to expect it. I was first month with #1 so this is frustrating but equally I'm very grateful for what I have and that definitely helps each month.
The back ache/ cramping is on off and quite noticeable but no implantation bleed like I had last time. Also been having lots of weird dreams and several each night but again it's probably nothing 🙈

ale2992 · 26/02/2019 07:10

So I tested again just now, I think I can see a very faint again but other half disagrees and say there's nothing there. This is making me annoyed at him!
If I compare today's test with yesterday I can 100% see a line but he is insisting there is nothing on either...
Not ruling myself out or letting this drag me down, 11dpo so I'm not out until af comes, which is Friday.

ale2992 · 26/02/2019 07:22

Ha, he has now doubted himself and come back for another look, he says if you hold it directly under the light and compare it to the other he admit he can also see a faint line!!
Going to test again in few days and try to not get my hopes up...

LG0914 · 26/02/2019 09:18

I'm so confused and unsure. So on Sat used the clear blue and was sure that a faint line was def there, it came up straightaway and was very faint but can see blue. This morning used a very cheap test and it said to wait 3 mins and nothing showed so I threw it in the bin. Stupidly I checked again and a dark pink line was there - are evap lines usually very dark?? And then I went toilet again before I left the house for work and when I wiped (sorry tmi) it was very light brownish?! Not a whole lot but enough to notice. My app says I'm due tomorrow but on here when I calculated ovulation etc it said start date would be 25th. So annoyed if this is AF!

Michellebops · 26/02/2019 11:29

@ale2992 and @LG0914
Can you post pictures?

I find Evap lines are more to the left of where the positive line would be

Unsureursula · 26/02/2019 12:04

@muddypuddlejumping it’s so confusing isn’t it! This is month one for us too- really shocked at how quick it worked but going to test again Friday morning to be sure! I seem to have caught the worst sinus cold - and I can’t take any actifed or sudafed which is making me very frustrated lol xx

ale2992 · 26/02/2019 12:39

@Michellebops I didn't have time to get a decent one before rushing off to work

ale2992 · 26/02/2019 16:57

@Michellebops I can't see it on the pictures but 100% in person

@ale2992 I can't see it on the first pic but definitely on second and third.

Looks a positive to me.

Fingers crossed for a stronger lines over next couple of days xx

Michellebops · 26/02/2019 17:39

Ps I'm only 2 dpo so I'm thinking of getting through my tww by studying other people tests 🙈

Maybe stops me doing it early 🤷‍♀️

Herewegoagain84 · 26/02/2019 17:40

@ale2992 I can see it on the second and third photo too! 🤞🏻

ale2992 · 26/02/2019 17:53

@Herewegoagain84 @Michellebops I'm trying not to get my hopes up but failing!

muddypuddlejumping · 26/02/2019 18:49

@ale2992 I can def see it on the second and third picture. Congratulations!

Unsureursula · 26/02/2019 19:34

Evening all! So decided to take a second FRER as feel like I’m dying with a cold and wanted to know if I could dose myself up with Actifed! Well this one looks pretty definite!

LG0914 · 26/02/2019 19:58

Sorry not long got home from work, probably not the best photos. The clear blue is hard to see on photo but it is there. And the other came up after the time it said so could it be an evap line?? :( Also not had any bleeding or the same as this morning all day.

Congrats @unsureursula

Unsureursula · 26/02/2019 21:20

@LG0914 hmm I know, tricky aren’t they! I had that darkish red/brown on sat and was convinced it was AF until nothing else arrives! Crossing everything for you xx

Michellebops · 26/02/2019 21:40

@LG0914 they don't look like evap limes.

Wait a couple of days and hopefully a stronger line with show.

Fingers crossed for you
