@CiaraJ01 if that isn’t a sign I don’t know what is, that’s so specific as well. Would you go back to the same one?

@mellymoo86 I know what you mean, I’ve seen a few now, but there’s been two that were spot on. One of them was so blunt 😂 she made my friend cry when she told her that her relationship would fail and he’d have a child with someone else and I walked out after she said someone in my family had bowel cancer, turns out she was right. Always wanted to go back to her, but she stopped, said it was very tiring.

I just find it so interesting, but wouldn’t want “the gift” myself.

@mellymoo86 that's funny. The only serious pics I have of my oh are our wedding pics. He always pulls a funny face in other pics.

@Littlepea90 I know what you mean. I have always been interested and am a believer, but definitely wouldn't want to have the gift!!

So don't get excited BUT Ladies help me out. So I did a Sainsbury's test this morning and it was negative, perhaps a very faint shadow no colour to it of a line but it was definitely not a positive result.

I put it in the box with the other one I took yesterday (hiding them til I can throw them out lmao) and when I've come to look at them again both tests have BLUE lines now? One is stronger than the other?

I know, I know it says invalid after the time limit so I'm not getting excited but I've also read where they say that it's invalid because of evap lines and I thought Evaps don't have any colour?!?

First pic is when I did the test this AM and the second is both tests done today and yesterday now?

@Blondeandbroody tough one cos its after the time but I do see the line. How many dpo are you? It would drive me mad though if I had the same as you!

A bit of an interesting question for you all, but have any of you tried or know anyone that has tried artificial insemination at home?? I know the pressure of performing can affect sperm production and its something we have spoken about. Just wondering if anyone has tried it or thought of trying?

OP posts:
Blondeandbroody · 18/12/2019 14:25

I'm not sure how many dpo to be honest but it's cycle day 31 today possibly 14dpo is Ovia is correct. The only thing making me think twice is that they are definitely blue not grey and they are actually clearer in person tried to get a clear picture best I can. One is stronger line than the other too, the newest test is stronger than the one yesterday.

I am by no means thinking it's a BFP though because odds are it isn't!

I've not tried it but I have read about it and saw somebody suggest using a moon cup for similar means? @Skygirl1983

Skygirl1983 · 18/12/2019 14:34

@Blondeandbroody worth buying a digital one? Try it tomorrow? At least you'll see the answer in writing then!!

I know @mellymoo86 uses a moon cup. I'm thinking of next cycle trying the AI thing. You can buy a kit online with everything you need, all sterile etc so it's safe. My hubby is starting marathon training in the new year so i think dtd will take a huge back seat!

Blondeandbroody · 18/12/2019 14:43

@Skygirl1983 you read my mind I've just order a 3 pack of CBs on amazon has 2 early detection tests and a digital one in it so I'll wait for those to arrive and take them this week maybe saving the digi til the weekend as don't wanna waste that!

I'm fairly sure AF will show before then but still my mind is stuck on these stupid lines now lol! 2 cases to finish then I break up for Christmas I should be concentrating on that!! Urgh!

It can't hurt to try it lovely! Especially if it will help take the edge off for you both xx

Skygirl1983 · 18/12/2019 14:59

@Blondeandbroody it's all that talk of psychics. Lol! Fingers crossed you get some sort of answer soon though.

I finish for xmas tomorrow and cant what!

But yeah I think i will talk it over with him again and see what he thinks but I don't think it will do any harm giving it a go.

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 15:12

@Skygirl1983 Yeah I did think of artificial insemination but don't know anything about it so I put the thought out of my head. And OH is normally ok with dtd when we need to so I didn't dwell on the idea. If it helps with planning around your business times then why not. Doesn't matter how the soldiers get there they just need to get there! Lol

@Blondeandbroody Oh gosh that's so frustrating! Good thing you ordered some other tests. I only trust FRER personally as I've had bad experiences from cb. They've just not been consistently accurate for me

Blondeandbroody · 18/12/2019 15:16

Well I'm glad you've not been saying I'm crazy cause it's past the time limit so it's obviously evap haha!! I'm so very doubtful about it as inconsistencies everywhere on google about but I'll see what other tests say this week, if AF doesn't show, if she does I need to put these tests under lock and key until AF due date etc cycle haha @mellymoo86

I've not tried CB yet figured I'd give them a go it was mainly for the digital to be honest so we shall see XX

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 15:18

@Skygirl1983 What DPO are you? I am 7DPO today. I'm monitoring on BBT chart as well. You'll see the dip on cycle day 13 is when I ovulated and then the temp shot up. Now I'm in the luteal phase where you temperate increases because Progesterone goes up.

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 15:20

@Blondeandbroody Haha you're definitely not crazy don't worry. I've done the same previously. Hopefully the tests you ordered gives you some clarity. If only our OH knew what we were up to 😂 they might reconsider having a baby with us. psycho alert! Lol

MrsC89 · 18/12/2019 15:33

@Skygirl1983 it's the other way round with us, I'm always the one pulling stupid faces in photos! DH is official photographer fo us, by the time I get my phone out my bag the moment has normally passed

nt1992 · 18/12/2019 15:33

@mellymoo86 it definitely takes the romance out of it but tbh his sex drive has never been that high anyway. I'm going to do a bit more research on it first though.

I'm 5dpo I think but not spotting or looking for anything this month. According to clue this cycle is going to be a little longer as last month was but I'm expecting AF to arrive anytime between 25th and 27th

mrsio · 18/12/2019 15:57

@nt1992 I swear I can see a faint line in both of those!

nt1992 · 18/12/2019 16:11

@mrsio I honestly don't🤦🏽‍♀️ do some women only get a positive reading like a week after their miss period? Because it's not happening anytime soon for me!

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 16:42

@mrsio did you have any implantation bleeding? Cramping etc?

mrsio · 18/12/2019 16:52

@mellymoo86 no bleeding but I did have some very slight cramping 6dpo. Absolutely no other symptoms, same as last time x

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 17:21

@mrsio Thank you, that's good to know. It's can really go in any direction. 🤞🏽

nt1992 · 18/12/2019 18:23

I've had loads of cramps tonight same as past few nights, keep going to toilet to wipe but nothing🤦🏽‍♀️ @mrsio do you get AF like cramps still?

Aomlaoy · 18/12/2019 18:53

Loving this positivity! Room for a newbie..?

Been trying for around 3 years- had surgery, now on tablets & if this doesn't work IVF. 2020 is going to be a year of babies!!! 👶🏻👶🏻👶🏻

mellymoo86 · 18/12/2019 19:38

You ok @nt1992 ?

nt1992 · 18/12/2019 19:39

@mellymoo86 yeh cramps are away again, no AF yet. How's you?

Blondeandbroody · 18/12/2019 19:42
