Anybody 3DPO..?

[Lolastanley]

Anybody 3DPO that wants to ride the TWW together?

Im day 10 (according to fem) or I think 11dpo and bfn this morning on a frer so pretty sure I'm out! Getting fed up of it always being on my mind.
Sorry @quiffy, it's so deflating when it arrives :(

That's interesting about the clear blue @Lolastanley.. do you track cm? Does that fit the opks too? I was surprised to have my ov so early this month- goes to show the apps arnt always reliable!

@sammyclaire22 I do track CM, but I had clear EWCM the day my period ended, and then again 4 days later.. so I don’t know whether I just crazily produce loads? I’ve had 8 negative clearblue tests as of today. It says to only do 9 I think... not sure what to do. I haven’t had any ovulation pains.

Did you test through your period? Maybe you ovulated right after it? Mine was cd10 this month so only a few days after AF finished so I missed the start of my fertile window!

No because I’d didn’t think that was possible? I have been tracking my BBT (other than today as I forgot) and that seems pretty stable. Normally you have a rise don’t you if you’ve ovulated and stays risen?
Never knew this ovulating thing could be so complicated. How people get pregnant of one night stands I’ll never know.

@lolastanley i would guess it depends how long AF was, but if your temps are still low i would guess youve still not ov then.
This is my current chart- I have a slow bbt rise so fem has put me a day behind what I think ov was but it's def a rise compared to before and about 3/4 days earlier than I expected!
I'd just keep temping etc and something will change one way or another!
I've no idea how people can just look at someone else and get pg... I'm not one of them anyway!

Yeah that’s a definite rise isn’t it. Would you say ovulation occurred on CD 11/12? That’s quite early isn’t it.

I think it happened CD10, fem says cd11. I had 2 peak opks and a slight dip cd9. Plus after that my cm was def not fertile. But it's a lot earlier than normal for me!

Sorry ladies, been off the radar since my sulking started on the 29th... Weirdest thing is that even though my AF arrived, I still get same faint positives FRER tests. It's not a pregnancy, but god knows what it is... But I am sure you all can imagine what the mind f**k that is for me. Line is not even that faint... totally perfectly visible pink line.
Anyway, cycle day 11 today, have noticed LH rising slowly, so soon another Two-week-torture is coming.

I don't know how to keep myself away from the FRER during TWW...? I know it will be false positives, so what's the point 🥺

Is it possible you just bled @SunnyFlover and you are pregnant??

Have you been to the gp? Are you getting positives on any other brand? Could you return them as faulty?
It's a total mind feck for you- the constant hope then not rollercoaster must be exhausting for you. Could it be a dodgy batch creating a second control line rather than test?
Ive been getting really really faint lines on my frer but no real colour and only in certain lights so I know they arnt anything! Probably only noticing them as I'm examining them so intently. I bought a few in a few days ago but think once I've used them I will stick to wilko- they are also pink, will stop me testing so early and are much cheaper! Hopefully no evap/ indent line too.

@Sammyclaire22 not been to GP for couple of months, last ultrasound looked totally normal ( endometrial layer etc looked all as should). Will go back again if nothing changes this cycle. But only FRER ( bought in multiple batches- so can't be fault in the test...) comes always positive for me. Even previous cycle, and the cycle before ( I though it was odd that I tested positive after bleeding, made me think it was late implantation, but now 2 months later - same again...) So it's totally me causing the positive without being pregnant.

Clear as day! See the photo 🥺

@SunnyFlover i'd go to the gp to get blood tests done to rule out pregnancy. Has the line gotten darker on the frer or is it still the same?

I’m new here and today I’m 7DPO, this is my first time and I’m freaking out 😩 My partner and I started trying the first day I was ovulating and Sperm can last 3-5 days and we didn’t want to push things too much so we just left it as that for this month to see how it would go. I’ve noticed I’m eating more than usual, having slight cramps, feeling exhausted and I’m having white creamy discharge (I know its TMI) but I’m not ovulating and I was just wondering if it’s a sign of early pregnancy. I’m not sure when to start testing either?

@SunnyFlover that must be awful. Seems really strange as well. I agree for gp for blood tests, as you’re on some rollercoaster atm :(

@killerwhale123 could be early signs. Did you only start dtd on the day you ovulated? If you use an app like femometer or Ovia it will help you find your fertile week, as your egg usually dies off within 24 hours if there’s no swimmers around. I’ve seen people testing from around 8dpo but I would try and leave it as close to af as you can. Good luck!

@Quiffy sorry about af by the way, hope you're ok. Did you noticed any difference in your luteal phase this time?

No wonder you are going insane @sunnyflover... that's such a clear line on the frer! Id def go to the gp for advice after seeing that. Something is clearly going on and you deserve some support!

Welcome @killerwhale123, how did you know you were ovulating? Only asking as apps can be out (4 days out for me this month) and wondered if you knew for certain the date you ovulated as that will impact how likely it is that you are pregnant. And welcome to your two week wait! (Tww) the nightmare time of analysing everything your body does in the hopes of a bfp! Your symptoms could be early signs, but can also be normal hormonal changes. Sore boobs are pretty common too. Best thing is to note in an app what you are feeling now so if you don't get a bfp you know what's normal for you, fingers crossed you do though!

@Lilice af is a pain. My lp was 11 days this time but I noticed a big difference in cramps and heaviness for af. Far more like the periods from hell that made me go on pill in the first place so hopefully that’s a good sign! I’ve now got my hopes on a Halloween baby if we conceive this month 😹

@SunnyFlover that looks very positive to me. I’ve heard of loads of people saying certain test brands were negative but others were positive. Definitely go to your GP, it’s been long enough.

@Quiffy happy days 11 days is good! I wonder if my cocktail will make a difference this month. I've already bought new vitamins to add for my next cycle... My kitchen looks like a pharmacy!

Welcome @Killerwhale123 to the tww and fingers crossed for a bfp!

I have ovulation sticks, but I’ve also been using the clear blue website. I have irregular periods but recently I have been on time. My cycle is 29 days long and the first day of my last period was 18th December lasted 7 days. I’m trying to gather as much information as possible because this is something that we really want and are hoping to happen soon. Any more tips you have please let me know🙂

Thank you so much! 🙂🙂

So I have tested again this morning and the line seems to be much fainter... go figure 😳 I read that sometimes in some cases women can produce a very small amounts of HCG ( cysts like corpus luteum ). Usual tests never pick this up, but most sensitive on the market ( aka FRER) does . As it only needs 6,5 level to be positive, meaning that faint line may already appear on 1- 5 level.

But overall it's a mind-fak 🤣

After stopping my BC pills, I usually ovulated on the day 19 ( last 4 cycles were between day 18-20), but I think this month I ovulated yesterday, on the day 11 🙄 OPK is much darker on the 11 compared to today (12), also had usual cramping etc. If that's truly the case - my cycle must have adjusted itself very suddenly... I really hope this is the case. I have been going kale and spinach cocktail crazy over Christmas ( instead of alcohol !), so this better be that reward that I needed...

@lilice I know the pharmacy feel. I have to leave them out so I remember to take them, yet I’m always worried someone pops by 😹😹

@SunnyFlover that is a total mind feck. Do you think you’ll avoid frers? Oooo and that sounds good on the kale etc

@SunnyFlover how are you feeling? That would be driving me insane!
