Do you have another cheapie you can do in a few hours to compare? It’s similar to my opks and the test line is usually closer to the control on those but your tests might be different - I can definitely see something though

Hi all
I am new here and would really appreciate some help!
I am 4 days late for me period I was not using any hormonal contraception prior to trying to conceive. The first date of my last period was 7.2.19.
I’ve taken 3 Hpt and all negative, however I feel like I’m going mad.
I have constant nausea which only curbs when I eat something, I have a strange taste in my mouth and loads of excess saliva constantly, I have had lower backache for the last week, my breasts don’t appear to have changed in size but they feel really full and I have even noticed some changes on my areola.
I am absolutely exhausted to the point that I came home from work tonight and went to sleep which NEVER happens! I have browsed loads of forums and people are saying that hpt’s are not always accurate. Has anyone else experienced a similar scenario?
My apologies if I am posting in the wrong place or I haven’t been as succinct as others, I’m trying to decipher all of the terminology!!!
Thanks!!

I have 1, they came free with opk’s, which I never got a positive or anything close to it I just had to go by ewcm. I will save it for fmu.
Trying to keep my feet on the ground as I know good chance it isn’t and even if it was it’s a long way to go!
Thanks

AnxietyForever · 11/03/2019 20:48

@EC22 I also think I could see something, I suppose I would say it's best to test with a first response test as there is no mistaking with them. Good luck, keep us updated!

Hi everyone so I caved this morning due to nausea and tested. I'm glad I did as I got the beginning of a bfp. It's obviously early and I'm pretty scared as its straight after my missed miscarriage but excited too. Good luck everyone! xx

Anyone else testing this week?
EC22 · 12/03/2019 08:45

Really happy for you!
My test with FMU didn’t even have a hint of a line.

AnxietyForever · 12/03/2019 08:48

@Catconfusion Congratulations, hope all works out for you. How many dpo are you?

Catconfusion · 12/03/2019 08:54

Thanks @EC22, don't give up just yet as can take longer to get bfp. I'm quite surprised mine is so visible.

Thanks @AnxietyForever I'm 9-11 dpo so surprised the line is there. I use Ovusense to track temps so it might have been a bit off with when I ovulated as my temps were high at the beginning of tracking due to my miscarriage.

Good luck to you both! Xx

Willowjasmine · 13/03/2019 07:25

Congratulations @Catconfusion , hope it works out well for you!

workinprogressmum · 13/03/2019 08:14

Congratulations @Catconfusion!

I'm going to test this week too. AF due Monday

MotherOfShihTzus · 13/03/2019 10:08

@Catconfusion are you able to share your temp charts? Would be great to see what a successful chart looks like :) I'm awaiting AF but had a glimmer of hope with a slight temp rise this morn... though probs due to poor sleep (worrying about all of this!)

Anyone else testing this week?
AnxietyForever · 13/03/2019 10:59

I tested today but it was a BFN as expected. 10dpo today. Due AF on Friday

cherrytwist · 13/03/2019 12:20

I'll be testing in the next couple of days, so nervous. Anyone know what dpo internet cheapies usually pick up hcg?

Catconfusion · 13/03/2019 13:06

@MotherOfShihTzus yes I can. I stopped testing day of BFP though as use Ovusense and didn’t want the hassle of inserting it etc. Also missed a couple of temps but pretty sure I had an implantation dip. Hope it helps!

Anyone else testing this week?
MotherOfShihTzus · 13/03/2019 16:51

Thanks @Catconfusion - really helpful :)

My temp spiked today, and I've had overwhelming gas (often have!), reflux (only ever had once having drank Prosecco 2 days straight in s hen do..,), and some dizziness ( which I can be susceptible to), and had lower back pain and mild cramps last night- not normal for me. I have a soft, closed cervix so my mind is on overdrive... no squint of a positive - yet there are signs; I'm on an emotional rollercoaster and want to get off! 11dpo today, normally spot today before AF, which is due tomo. Gah!!

MotherOfShihTzus · 13/03/2019 16:52

@Catconfusion - did you get symptoms diff to usual?

MotherOfShihTzus · 13/03/2019 17:10

@AnxietyForever you're still in til you're out - have hope!! Since implantation can occur up to 12dpo - it won't show fir a while after that even as the hcg gets stronger. FX for you x

Catconfusion · 13/03/2019 17:12

@MotherOfShihTzus I’ve been very sleepy, had an upset stomach, frequent urination, headaches, bloating, some cramping, back pain, sore breasts, weepy and impatient moods. When I told my husband I was pregnant he wasn’t surprised. Good luck! X

MrsRLM · 13/03/2019 18:24

@MotherOfShihTzus I'm in exactly the same position as you! No BFP yet but I've got a lot of the same symptoms as you. A lot of reflux and I've bee crying about about 2 days haha. 11 DPO today and AF due on Saturday

Willowjasmine · 13/03/2019 18:57

@MrsRLM I'm at the same point in my cycle as you, 11dpo and due AF on Saturday. Got all my premenstrual symptoms though so think I'm out Sad

beebear22 · 15/03/2019 09:53

Good morning!

Took a FRER test at 10dpo and BFN. Was cramping all day and it stopped yesterday.Took a clear blue first response today (12dpo) and got this. Trying not to get too excited in case it's false. Going to take another FRER tomorrow. AF due either tomorrow or Sunday

Anyone else testing this week?
MrsRLM · 15/03/2019 10:04

Congrats @beebear22, that's looking good!

I think I'm out this month. Temps have dropped right down to my cover line. AF is due tomorrow and I've been a miserable b*itch the last couple of days so the PMT has definitely kicked in!

MotherOfShihTzus · 15/03/2019 11:44

Congrats @beebear22 - looks a good strong positive!

@MrsRLM I'm officially out this morning. Gutted since we had an expensive weekend away to ensure we smashed the peak days. This also means that I will be away with work on my next peak days so it's doubly disappointing. I've booked another dr spot to try and push them to do something... waiting 2 months to hear from the fertility clinic and counting! I'm holding a glimmer of hope for you! If af drives, will you try anything different next month? X

Catconfusion · 17/03/2019 12:34

Unfortunately mine didn't stick. I've had severe cramping over the weekend so tested on FRER. Got the faintest of positives compared with the ones last week so looks like another loss albeit very early. I'm not bleeding yet but in a lot of pain so fully expecting it.

Feeling very sad as straight after my MMC but trying to look on the bright side that I seem to fall pregnant very quickly. Hopefully not a sign I can't make them stick. XX
