Hi!

Didn't manage to conceive last month so now it's time to try for a December baby! Anyone else want to join? On CD 4 so I'm feeling positive about a new start! I'm ttc no3.

Congrats blondie that's great news. Fancy giving us a run down of TWW symptoms and anything you did different?

I thought I was out! Had cramps and hot flushes in the morning, was very aware of different sensations in my stomach. Very sensitive teeth and really moody! I got three negative tests and so I got a bit tipsy on Saturday night which I'm regretting now!

Nothing different at all tbh. Thank you for the congratulations, only told husband in real life as I'm still processing we're having 3!

Congratulations, blondie! Delighted for you. 😀

As I’m a bit unsure of cycle days, I’ve been trying to track via CM, but did an OPK this morning and it looks like this... Is this positive? The test line looks almost the same as the control line to me? We DTD on Sunday but my hubby’s working late for the next day or two so don’t know how that’s going to work... x

Congratulations @blondie87! How many DPO did you test?

@Starfish83 I would say that's positive but I'm no expert - I have never seen the line darker than the rest line, just about the same darkness as yours is. But I am alway super hydrated and never hold my urine very long before testing so figure that's why. Could you fit in DTD in the morning instead if the evening is too hard?

starfish that looks positive! Hope you get to make the most of it!
Got a negative 10dpo Charlotte then re-tested at 12dpo and BFP. Would definitely recommend First Response over Clearblue.

Think I might be having a chemical pregnancy based on line progression 😢

Blondie, I’m so very sorry if this is the case. I’m afraid that I don’t know enough about it to advise, but am thinking of you and really hope that the news is good. x

Peachyx2505 · 03/04/2019 14:29

Oh @blondie87 how worrying for you. I have no experience or advice lovely, but I'm keeping everything crossed that it isn't the case xx

@starfish that looks positive! Go catch that egg!

@blondie Im not sure either ... did you take the tests in the morning? If so, did you drink more last night that maybe it was diluted? I really hope its not a cp as that was lovely news to see! Hoping for you hun 💖💖

Scarletrose18 · 03/04/2019 21:23

@starfish sorry I just read your other comment about your dh working late....Dh was working late quite a few of the nights in my fertile week and it was so tiring to dtd, so I know how you feel, but hopefully will be worth it if you can muster the energy 🙂

Thanks scarletrose18 I've done them at different times. Can I have your opinions? I took a Sainsbury's test with fmu and for about 5-10 minutes there was the faintest positive result, however it got darker over the course of about 15-20 minutes it was clearly positive but I don't know if that counts? Pic attached.

Starfish I hope you had success!

Anyone else testing this week?

Last night's test- definitely positive but not much changed since I first tested! It's a really sensitive test...

@blondie87 we're your others taken in the evening? Xx

Scarletrose18 · 05/04/2019 16:21

Sorry for late response, thats defo a line @Blondie what cd and dpo are you right now?

My first response test was very light at first. In fact maybe even lighter than yours is. I will find the pic of it to show you...

Scarletrose18 · 05/04/2019 16:23

This is it.

Scarletrose18 · 05/04/2019 16:29

Maybe you are less dpo than you think, as opks arent always exact. Do you think would be worth going to your doctors to get a bloodtest to put your mind at rest as im sure you are feeling horrible not knowing either way xo

I think the line looks like a decent line but I really dont know much to advise, Im hoping for you though and sending you lots of babydust 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Thanks peachy and scarlet. Yesterday I was about 15dpo, give or take a day. All the FRER have been taken without fmu. I'm going to take a break from testing as it's going to drive me nuts and bankrupt me! Not had any spotting which I usually get pre period so I'll take that as a good sign even though other symptoms have reduced.

I'll re test next week and if the lines are still faint I'll see the doctor. How are you getting on scarlet? How are others doing too?

blondie87 · 05/04/2019 17:16

Oh and cheers for the pic. How many dpo was that?

OP posts:
Scarletrose18 · 05/04/2019 20:06

I didnt do opk's so not sure how many dpo @blondie but it was about cd27 so a day or 2 before period due that test was.

Im ok, I got myself really worried today after taking a first response because I had what seemed to be a super faint line, but it was actually the control line, apparently its a fault was with the first response test if your test line is too dark it sucks all the colour from the control line... Lol. You wouldnt of realised first looking at the test only after a while I realised. If that makes any sense? Lol

Anyway I hope very soon you have the same problem! Going to the doctors next week is a good idea.

Scarletrose18 · 05/04/2019 20:08

And p.s I looked at your test pic again and its defo a bit darker than the pic I sent you. Hope your ok and have a busy weekend to try to take your mind off a bit

mrsawhite · 05/04/2019 20:46

Think I'm out ladies ☹️ was so convinced it had happened this month. But cramping and starting to spot now. So disappointed
