@TrashKitten10 yes I can see a faint line too! How many DPO are you @ohmarnie? Maybe get a FRER?

Still no sign oh AF but trying not to get my hopes up

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 07:41

@Lozzlepop no idea! Normally I ovulate roughly around CD20-30 (long cycles) which would put me between 7-10DPO now. But this cycle confused me because I always get sore boobs straight after ovulation right up until AF but nothing this time! I don't track, now thinking that I should!

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 07:46

Sorry I mean 7-17DPO! Could be anywhere in between that

TrashKitten10 · 20/02/2019 07:56

@Lozzlepop pleased it's not just my eyes deceiving me!

@OhMarnie Irregular cycles are a bummer! How sensitive are your tests? I would try to be patient, test again with FMU tomorrow and perhaps use a FRER? The internet test strips are so narrow it's hard to see a squinter. Crossing all my fingers and toes for you! :)

Lozzlepop · 20/02/2019 07:59

@ohmarnie I’m currently on CD34 so can join in the long cycle madness! I have these tests too which was what I was going to use to test tomorrow but not sure now 🤔 do you feel like AF is coming? I have low back pain and felt a bit sick on and off keep thinking AF will start at any minute

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 08:01

@TrashKitten10 they say they are 10mlU. Yeah I will test tomorrow or in a few days with fmu and an frer. Feeling oddly zen and 'que sera sera' about it. For now I'm off to London later for a fancy afternoon tea with the girls! 😃

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 08:03

@Lozzlepop long cycle buddies!! Yeah I'm a bit sceptical of them...looking at the photos I took now they definitely look different to the clear as day negatives ive had in the past but they are so tiny it's difficult to tell. Maybe test on these first but go out and get a proper one if you have an 'inconclusive' like mine.

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 08:04

@Lozzlepop sorry missed the second part of your message - well since yesterday I've felt slightly crampy and nipples are becoming sore so yeah potentially AF could be on its way!

DayDreamer1707 · 20/02/2019 08:31

Thank you all for being so nice, I haven't had any spotting since but I did fall asleep on my OH at 9 🙈. Will just have to see what today brings, praying it isn't AF but also don't want to get my hopes up. CD25 and 13DPO with AF due tomorrow or Friday.

@OhMarnie so sorry, when are you due on? I have read those test aren't always the most reliable and do agree with @TrashKitten10 x

@KittieKath sorry you also got a negative but there is still time x

BostonFern · 20/02/2019 08:40

Morning!

@OhMarnie I'd be tempted to try a FRER!

@MrsH497 sorry you're still in limbo.

@DayDreamer1707 how are you this morning?

CD26 and 12 or 13dpo, I've managed to resist testing for another morning. I'm pretty sure AF is coming this month as I've started to get a 'heavy' feeling in my lower abdomen. She's due on Fri/Sat.

starkid · 20/02/2019 09:06

I'm 5DPO and had a tiny bit of pink when I wiped in the middle of the night. None this morning though. Am thinking it's way too early to be pre-AF spotting or implantation bleed, so I must have just nicked myself...
@OhMarnie - definitely test again Friday I'd say, with a different test xx

DayDreamer1707 · 20/02/2019 09:29

@BostonFern thanks for asking, I am OK. My OH is trying to be really positive and saying that we are still in for a chance, got tot love him 😍. I just don't like to get my hopes up and I always get spotting now before AF so it's more likely to be that than anything else. Scared every time I go the loo ha!! Glad you haven't tested yet and I hope AF stays away. You never know if cramping is a good thing or a bad thing anymore.

Lozzlepop · 20/02/2019 09:53

@ohmarnie probably a good idea, will do that!

@BostonFern good on you for holding out to test, fingers crossed AF doesn't appear

@DayDreamer1707 how are you feeling today? Your OH sounds so sweet ☺️ I know what you mean regarding cramping, our bodies are so confusing.

DayDreamer1707 · 20/02/2019 11:10

@Lozzlepop aww love how everyone is so nice on here, I'm doing OK. Nothing but CM at the moment but just got to do what we do best and WAIT!! Did you decide to not test?

BostonFern · 20/02/2019 11:12

@DayDreamer1707 bless you, being scared each time you go to the toilet.

@Lozzlepop I've reached that point in the TWW now where I just want to know-which is not making resisting testing any easier (and I have about six tests upstairs that I could use!).

Lozzlepop · 20/02/2019 11:23

@DayDreamer1707 ☺️ Yeah the good old waiting game huh! No I’m
Holding off until tomorrow 😬 feeling quite anxious about it!

@BostonFern I know what you mean about wanting to know either way, just stuck in limbo just now

DayDreamer1707 · 20/02/2019 11:24

@BostonFern I know, sound like a weirdo, just went then and all was safe and fine ha. Oh no you are stuck in the house with the tests!! This is the first time I think I have got to 13DPO with the least amount of spotting. Normally starts 10/11dpo. I have loads of IC at home but think I need to wait to see how how the spotting goes and if I get any more. Last night was literally really pale pink but I don't know if that's because I'd had a little wee. I'd prefer to know either way now but think the spotting starting will let me know x

DayDreamer1707 · 20/02/2019 11:28

@Lozzlepop FX for you tomorrow, I would like to test to see where I stand but I'm just going to see if I get anymore spotting. I can't wait for the weekend to be a distraction x

TrashKitten10 · 20/02/2019 11:31

Eek so many tests coming up! @DayDreamer1707 @BostonFern when do you plan to test? @Lozzlepop Crossing my fingers it's a positive tomorrow!

@OhMarnie Good attitude to have! Enjoy your afternoon tea. I'm having a home made afternoon tea with my mum and sister later. Not so fancy but lovely nonetheless Brew

3dpo today, I'm in the boring no man's land where I can't even justify making up symptoms Grin

OP posts:
BostonFern · 20/02/2019 11:32

@DayDreamer1707 yep, stuck in the house as it's half term and three of those tests are FRERs- the temptation is massive! Glad you're still AF free too, good news that this is the least spotting you've had too.

@Lozzlepop good luck for in the morning!

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 11:34

@Lozzlepop everything Xd for you tomorrow! Eeek!!

OhMarnie · 20/02/2019 11:45

@TrashKitten10 that sounds lovely though ☕️ I sometimes wish I had a sister - 2 older brothers for me! Can't have quite the same TTC chats 😂

BostonFern · 20/02/2019 11:48

@TrashKitten10 planning on testing on Friday!

Lozzlepop · 20/02/2019 11:53

@DayDreamer1707 Thank you, I am looking forward to the weekend too, not long to go x

@TrashKitten10 Thanks, it seems a busy time for testing

@BostonFern Thank you lovely

@OhMarnie Thanks

Its so lovely having all of you ladies here with me on this journey. I am an only child so don't have any sisters to talk TTC through with and we haven't formally told friends or family we are trying as I don't want constant questions or extra pressure so it can seem quite lonely, but so glad i found this thread :D

BabySquid · 20/02/2019 12:25

@Lozzlepop I feel the same, none of our fam know we're trying, only my three BFFs as I needed someone there other than my hubs when I MC in sept.
So I've just worked out... as I do, if this month were to be out lucky month, I'd be due on my dads birthday 😄 his first grandchild!!
