Hey ladies
I know there's lots of threads out there for this but who's joining me?
I think I'm either 1 or 2 DPO - got a static smiley on a clear blue digital OPK on Wednesday and annoyingly didn't have any IC to test when I did actually O nor am I temping so guessing I O'd either Thursday or Friday.
I am determined NOT to symptom spot but realistically I will 😂

@Islandermum say whatttttt this is super exciting, can't wait till we all wake up and see the bfp!!
@largepinotplease don't be so hard on yourself my love, you enjoy that wine!! It'll be the morning your feeling like a monster lol! Your only human and your allowed to feel and do whatever you wish and I for one am not a judgey m/f! We all have reasons for doing things and I think your very justified in having some and kicking back and trying to relax! Sending all you ladies massive hugs!! Omg islandermum that means I could potentially test on Sunday/Monday Grin xx

@largepinotplease don't be hard on yourself too much. We are our own biggest critics at times. Enjoy the wine x

maria2bela · 13/07/2019 09:09

@Islandermum wow getting a line at 7dpo is very positive news! When is AF due? Will you wait until then to retest or keep testing daily? I'm testing tomorrow eeek!

Dexysmidnightrunner · 13/07/2019 11:35

Congratulations @Islandermum! How exciting! Feel like I’m getting AF type cramps now so don’t think this is my month

Islandermum · 13/07/2019 18:07

Thank you so much ladies. Tested again this morning and the line is still very faint, almost invisible 😂 really hoping it gets stronger tomorrow. Feeling positive and hopeful. I'm still only 8dpo so I'm not expecting an obvious line this early!

Elles1980 · 13/07/2019 18:42

@Islandermum 8dpo is still super early so any line is a good line!! Keep the faith, fingers crossed for you. Just out of curiosity how do you know how many dpo you are exactly? I peaked a week ago today so am I 7dpo? Just that I had 2 days peak on my fertility monitor... Can't wait to test but don't wanna upset myself by getting negatives when I just feel like I may be lol! I think IV convinced myself..... Oh good god I may have a phantom pregnancy lol! Xx

MrsLBear · 13/07/2019 20:44

@Islandermum wow that impressive to get any whiff of a BFP 7dpo.
I have af cramps that are quite uncomfortable so dunno if I'm gonna bother testing tomorrow. I say this and I will test and waste my time as I'm having my normal pre-af hot flushes too.

Well ladies I tested early this morning and was almost convinced I could see a very faint line. A few hours later and AF has got me 😔😔😔. I'm out for this month, i hope everyone get their bfps and if not, I'll be staying in this thread to see who'll be joining me for another round next month x

I got a bfn too @maria2bela. I know it's early but I have decided to pack it all in. It's driving me insane and I'm sure it's not healthy even to be like this when TTC. So I'm gonna delete all my apps and just have a few months off. I'm so so so fed up with it. Approaching 14 months now.

MrsLBear · 14/07/2019 09:16

Sorry af got you as well @maria2bela. That's like a double whammy for today. Fx for you for next month ✨✨

Hi ladies hope it's okay if I join! I'm 9dpo and think I got my BFP yesterday at 8dpo - tested again today and it's definitely a positive, but I'm just hoping it sticks as I've had a chemical before. It's really, really early so definitely shocked to have lines and worried it's not going to stick.

Islandermum · 14/07/2019 10:36

@maria2bela @MrsLBear I'm so sorry ladies, it's a really disheartening feeling when Af arrives. Sending lots of love and baby dust.

Tested this morning 9dpo but with a cheapo v unsensitive Tesco test and I've got another faint positive. I do have some FRERs on the way from Amazon so I'm hoping to get a bit of a clearer positive later on!
@mushroommayhem what incredible lines! Congratulations, I have a MC in may so I completely feel the same!

You might not even be able to see a second line in this picture but this is this morning test x

mushroommayhem · 14/07/2019 10:40

@Islandermum thank you! I see yours clearly!! Fingers crossed we have sticky BFPs this time around. Definitely use the First Responses when they arrive, but I'd say an obvious line on yours Grin

Islandermum · 14/07/2019 10:44

So excited! Now we just have to wait until af has passed and maybe we can be excited? I honestly feel like I can't believe it. Tbh I need a clear line on a FRER to be satisfied that it's real!!

maria2bela · 14/07/2019 12:19

@MrsLBear you're not out until AF arrives!! Don't give up, keep going we will get there eventually. We will be cycle buddies for an August BFP hopefully!

@Islandermum That is FAB!!!! Very happy for you! Yes test with a FRER to confirm, but those lines look good enough to me :)

FlorenceLane · 14/07/2019 13:04

Hi everyone, I hope you don't me joining?

I'm 11dpo, and had a BFN last night...

This is so bloody disheartening. Feeling moody today so AF is probably going to show it's face in next 48 hours. Anyone else also hide themselves away to wallow after BFN or AF arrives?

Xxx

Dexysmidnightrunner · 14/07/2019 13:35

@Islandermum, congrats on your BFP! Great news!

AF arrived this morning so on to the next cycle. Feeling pretty grumpy today and trying to keep at bay the feelings of panic that it just might not happen for us

LouLouB1987 · 14/07/2019 17:00

10 or 11dpo and BFN on FRER this morning sooooo guessing I can expect AF to show her ugly face this week.

Was hoping after first round IVF ended in MC we might just catch naturally but looking like we'll need to use our little frozen bean 💜

Congrats @Islandermum ! Seeing that lovely line on anyones test never gets old 😍

Islandermum · 14/07/2019 17:47

Ladies, you aren't out until af rears her head! Giving you all of my baby dust and luck for this cycle. Remember, you are one month closer to having you BFP!!

Islandermum · 14/07/2019 17:48

Took a frer this afternoon, the line is absolutely there but of course it is still faint!
Hoping 10dpo brings me a clearer line so I can show you all a picture/feel confident!
Pregnancy after loss is really hard and I'm feeling all confused right now but hopefully this is a sticky one 🤞

Elles1980 · 14/07/2019 20:40

Well I'm just stuck in limbo.... I'm either 7 or 8 dpo, I read so much during the week I was convinced I she all of the symptoms and now IV not over the weekend I feel nothing. I ovulate really early so I still have to wait till the 23rd to see if af arrives! Aw ladies who have been hit by mother nature please don't loose hope, try to chill and know it's only 2 weeks till you ovulate again and then the 2ww, break it down a little. Sending you hugs. And the ladies with bfp congratulations it's lovely to hear of the nice stories. As for me, I'll just keep floating around till something happens lol! Xx

Izzie1994 · 15/07/2019 07:37

I've been quite over the weekend because I've been at work xx my boobs have been soooo sore but woke up this morning and they are a lot less painful so I think AF is on her way! X

Izzie1994 · 15/07/2019 13:35

Started spotting, I'm out xx see you all in a few weeks time to update on this cycle xx good luck to everyone still waiting xx

Islandermum · 15/07/2019 13:56

Sorry to hear about Af and BFNs, giving you lots of baby dust! @Elles1980 when will you test this month? Won't be long now until you can get a faint positive!

Update, I'm now 10dpo and my line is getting stronger on a FRER! Starting to get some symptoms now, I'm so thirsty and my boobs are on fire!

largepinotplease · 15/07/2019 15:03

Congratulations to everyone who's had a BFP! Very exciting. I did a test this morning and it was negative, I feel like AF is going to come any minute, I've not had cramps but just the sensation it's close. According to my app it's due today but I could be out a day or two. Anyway, in my head I know I'm probably out this month but I'll still hold a glimmer of hope until I know for certain if I come on at some point over the next couple of days. I hate this part, if I'm going to come on I just want it to start now and be done so I can move on, can't stand the limbo, it makes it ten times worse 😩 good luck to those still to test x
