Anyone else in the TWW and want to keep each other sane?

@Blossomingflower94 @Raizelrea came back at lunch time to rest and line is back to as dark as it was yesterday, darker than this mornings line. Confused xx

Raizelrea · 30/09/2019 13:08

@AliSxo What a rollercoaster! I think the important thing is that it seems to be getting darker now! Have you been drinking the same amount of fluids the last couple of days, or changed your coffee intake? I'd imagine that could influence how dilluted your urine is? Will you still be testing tomorrow? In any case keep us posted - so nerve-wracking! Fingers crossed for you 🤞

Raizelrea · 01/10/2019 07:57

Any news @AliSxo ?

AliSxo · 01/10/2019 08:57

It's still fainter I think it's a chemical, I'm 16DPO so it should be a BFP by now. Strongest line was yesterday lunch time but it's barely there this morning I'll post a photo when it lets me x

Blossomingflower94 · 01/10/2019 09:07

Oh @alisxo I'm sorry 😔 I really hope things turn around for you.

Keep us posted. Lots of hugs xx

@alisxo I'd test again in the morning to be sure. It's meant to double every 48 hours so that will give you a better idea.

Are you cramping or anything? Might just be that you're not actually 16 DPO today xx

No cramps, no nothing I'm honestly fine, I always get vertigo before my period and I had it so badly last night so honestly I'm expecting AF. I might not test until Friday, I go to London tomorrow with work overnight and not back until Thursday evening so might just wait it out, all this testing is driving me mad. I think with how faint it is this morning it's not looking good, I agree I might have ovulated later than normal and therefore not as far along as I think but time will tell xxxxx

Raizelrea · 01/10/2019 17:34

@AliSxo Sorry to hear that lovely! At least the work trip will distract you a bit for the next couple of days until you can get a clearer idea of what's going on!

That being said the pattern of those tests is not necessarily just downward which is confusing, that result from 15 DPO around noon was quite a jump up... Do you wake up to wee at night by any chance? Or drink loads of water just before you go to sleep? Obviously this is pure speculation! I hope you're ok Flowers

RifRafia · 01/10/2019 17:45

Hi all,

I had been feeling a bit nauseous so did a test yesterday afternoon at what I think was around 9DPO, and got a BFP. I decided to do another test on waking this morning to try and confirm result, but can back BFN. Does anyone have any experience of this? I'm assuming probably means that I may have been pregnant but didn't implant?

AliSxo · 01/10/2019 17:55

Thanks @Raizelrea you're really kind, I know it shocked me that yesterday's lunch time was darker but then this morning so so faint, I'm off work on Friday so if I don't come on by then I'll book in xxx

AliSxo · 01/10/2019 19:13

I've just taken another one and the line is back, just as dark as the one from yesterday lunch time but not any darker... what a palava... I've cried all morning today and just had to lie to my manager and make up it was about work... I've told my mom she's so supportive xx

Raizelrea · 02/10/2019 07:33

@AliSxo How bizarre, must be nervewrecking! Sorry you're on such a rollercoaster. Hopefully London will keep you busy for a bit now, maybe go out for dinner with some collegues there if you can (rather than sitting in your hotel room). Keep us posted!

@RifRafia No personal experience but it does sound like it could be a chemical, sorry! 9 or 10 DPO are very early to get definitive results though, I'd test again at 13 or 14 DPO to get a better idea. Good luck!

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 11:31

That was this morning, still a faint line but it's getting stronger as you can see x

Ok so am now completely terrified as number 3 is due next June!

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 11:39

Congrats @Chaosonthehorizon can I please ask if you've had strong lines on FRER tests? My lines are getting stronger but not the same colour as the control line but I've had a 1-2 week on digital? Xxx

Chaosonthehorizon · 02/10/2019 12:12

I’m not entirely sure what it was, just a boots test (expired) and then did a CB this morning. They have always been reliable for me

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 12:20

I'm so paranoid I'm having a chemical I need to be more positive @Chaosonthehorizon was your digital test 1-2 weeks or are you further along? Xx

Raizelrea · 02/10/2019 13:18

@AliSxo That's definitely looking darker! I think if it was a chemical it would have disappeared by now? 🤞

@Chaosonthehorizon Congratulations! Did you have any symptoms?

Chaosonthehorizon · 02/10/2019 17:16

AliSxo no symptoms really just some cramps at the front when af due and maybe boobs a bit tender (but had that for the last three months too). 2-3 wks, I often date ahead though because I ovulate straight after my period so may be 3-4 wks or may not

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 18:06

Thanks @Chaosonthehorizon I've lost my appetite, really tired and had a few cramps, I'm just worried as I'm actually 17dpo but only showing as 1-2 weeks on the digital test so worried my hcg is low. I'm going to book into the doctors and they might suggest a blood test? Can I please ask how many DPO you are? Xx

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 18:06

Hi @Raizelrea I really hope it's not but I think I'm prepared if it is as I just worry my hcg isn't as strong as it should be for this many days past ovulation? Xx

Chaosonthehorizon · 02/10/2019 19:20

I think 15/16 DPO, keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Raizelrea · 02/10/2019 22:33

@AliSxo I really do hope it's a sticky! Sending good vibes!

@Chaosonthehorizon How are you feeling? And how did your OH react? How good is the timing - just when you were talking about giving up on number 3 😊

I think I may test tomorrow which is silly as it will only be 11 DPO but I'm getting impatient.

AliSxo · 02/10/2019 22:42

@Raizelrea 11DPO some people get a faint line but maybe try and hold out a few more days? Xxx
