Hey, I'm currently 6dpo and looking for some friends to pass this next week with as the TWW is a crazy time!! I'm at work tomorrow so that'll distract me but I'd like to test Friday when I'm 8DPO event though it's still very early... anyone similar? Merry Christmas everyone I hope we all get our BFPs!! Xx

@HugeAgeGap That's a really strong positive, huge congratulations to you ☺️ Hopefully we'll be able to go through this journey together ☺️

Crazymummyto3 · 01/01/2020 12:32

@Togetherismyfavouriteplace It sounds to me like you could have ovulated later. I would test again in a couple of days

HugeAgeGap · 01/01/2020 13:51

@Crazymummyto3 thanks lovely. It did come up pretty quick and is fairly dark, AF due on Sunday so still really early, see how it goes!!

@Togetherismyfavouriteplace symptoms sound really positive, just hang in there before testing as long as you can as it's disappointing getting a potential false positive etc

Sunshinexx95 · 01/01/2020 14:07

@HugeAgeGap we r really cycle sisters. Congrats againGrinI am 13 dpo and af is due on Saturday but my positive isn't that strong Confused which is making me nervous

@Sunshinexx95 Those lines are definitely getting darker! I don't have any more FRER. I took the other Morrison's test this morning and the line leant look any darker which is making me worry, but the IC is much darker. My Clearblue digital which was due to arrive tomorrow is now saying Friday 😩 I don't even really know when AF is due as I'm currently cd31 and my cycles have varied between 27 and 33/days.

The top ones in the photos are yesterday and bottom ones are today.

@Sunshinexx95 thank you. I think your lines are getting darker. I'm no expert at all, but I do wonder if the urine u use at the time of day makes a difference, I think for comparison of lines u ideally need to do same time each day so the urine is roughly same dilution, that might help. I did my 11dpo FRER this morning with FMU and dipped it. I'm not due AF until Sunday, so just gonna leave the tests now and see what happens...

@Crazymummyto3 it is a worry isn't it. I think u gotta try to not torture yourself about it, your body will do what it will do regardless of tests. That's easier said than done! I think I'm so relaxed about it because I kinda don't think this is gonna properly happen for me. This is my second (massive gap) but I had a bit of treatment on my cervix couple years ago which gives a higher miscarriage rate, so we'll just see. I'm pleased to know that partner and I biology bits are working ok though :-)

botbird84 · 01/01/2020 16:17

Hey ladies. So AF was due today and hasn't arrived 🤔 last month the first day was unusually light but the following day was the usual. Today I've had no signs at all. Did a FRER Sunday and ICs since then, all BFN. I have one FRER and one IC test left, might hold out until the weekend and see what happens. Got rather too merry as I was convinced I was out this month, now I'm starting to think that was a bad idea! 😭

Blondie7187 · 01/01/2020 16:42

Hi, is it ok if I join?! So I think I'm about 5dpo didn't try to hard this month for it to happen but didn't prevent it either. Thing is today I have been feeling very nauseous and was nearly sick, very unlike me. Is there any way that could be a symptom of is it far too soon for that? Going to stay away from tests as long as possible but it's so hard 🙈

I am trying my best not to symptom spot or let the mind wander as we did manage to get pregnant back in April but sadly had a miscarriage at 8 weeks!

Sending you all baby dust 💕

botbird84 · 01/01/2020 17:17

@Blondie7187 sorry to hear that 😔 think it might be a bit early, implantation usually occurs between 6-12 DPO xx

LockThatFridge · 01/01/2020 17:23

Welcome @Blondie7187. Sorry to hear about your loss. Hopefully this is your month.
@HugeAgeGap I’m not testing until I’m definitely late because I also have a higher risk of miscarriage. It’s too emotionally draining. I hope this one sticks for you.
@botbird84 I also had a few drinks last night and I don’t feel guilty because there’s a strong chance I’m not pregnant. I’ve opted out of a few things because of the tww and it hasn’t happened so I decided to not go crazy but to have some wine with a meal and a toast at midnight yesterday. I have a feeling I had a glass of wine the night before my bfps with my dds too. Maybe relaxing a bit will help!
Still no signs here that can’t be attributed to other things. My resting hr is still up from normal though. If I can wait that long I will test on Monday.

Sjp17 · 01/01/2020 20:28

@Sunshinexx95 here are my positives with my son top was 14DPO, digital and second was 15dpo and last is 16dpo. Hcg levels rise at their own pace and are different with all of us, there are so many variations of normal with pregnancy, I also spotted until around 8 weeks, now is the time to be calm and positive, have you made a doctors appointment? Make sure you tell your doctor everything and trust their advice. Good luck xxx

Bfn for me today at 12DPO so I'm most certain I'm out for this month, who else is going to have an October 2020 baby with me?

TWW - currently 6dpo!
Wintergal · 01/01/2020 20:36

@Sjp17 I would love to get the BFP for an October baby!

gingerglitter4ever · 01/01/2020 20:46

Mind if I join? Halo

@Sjp17 If I don't get a BFP in the next three days count me in! Af is due on the 3rd, tested yesterday at 11 DPO (although not first thing) and it was a BFN but I still have hope as I am having more tender breasts today and that usually happens earlier if it's connected to AF, fingers crossed!
Anyone else have dizziness as a symptom, I don't normally have low blood pressure, but it's been something I've experienced since 3 or 4 DPO ...

Baby dust all around!

AliSxo · 01/01/2020 20:50

@Sjp17 I'm with you babe 😘 xx

@gingerglitter4ever I've had dizzy spells since Christmas eve, but just put it down to my appalling Christmas food intake! 🙈

bethj123 · 01/01/2020 23:39

Hello!! I really thought I was out this month, but decided to do 2 tests tonight and I swear I can say a really faint line on both.. period is due 3-4 days
Can anyone else? X

TWW - currently 6dpo!
botbird84 · 01/01/2020 23:56

@bethj123 yeah I can see a faint line :)

bethj123 · 02/01/2020 00:15

Omg please tell me this is a positive! I'm shaking! 4 years trying, ivf next month.

LockThatFridge · 02/01/2020 00:27

@bethj123 i can see it without even enlarging the picture on my phone. Congratulations!

bethj123 · 02/01/2020 00:29

@LockThatFridge thank you!!
Can't quite believe it yet! Bit worried as been drinking over Christmas x

Crazymummyto3 · 02/01/2020 04:24

@bethj123 That is exactly how mine started before I got my BFF on my FRER😊 Do you have one you can use in the morning.? I wouldn't worry about the drinking. I'm not a big drinker at all but this is the first month since ttc that I had a drink on my work night out and Christmas Eve, the main thing is that I've stopped now!

@gingerglitter4ever This is the first month that I've felt light-headed and my boobs feel heavier and hurt when my LG bf's which they haven't done for a long time.

HugeAgeGap · 02/01/2020 08:38

@bethj123 i can see lines, look really obvious to me, even with my phone on a dim nighttime setting!

I also had a dizzy spell two days ago, which was really weird for me so made me think twice!

I also had a couple of weak gins on New Year's Eve at 10dpo, also so that it wasn't obvious to any friends!

12dpo today but still no pregnancy signs although I have a bfp. With my last I had really sore boobs and bad sickness, so to anyone not testing yet I think it's normal to not have any symptoms this early.

botbird84 · 02/01/2020 09:32

I did a FRER this morning, I had one left and had a weird dream I was pregnant. Good start to the year I think! 🤗

cmarie2712 · 02/01/2020 09:49

Hi all new to the site! Ttc my second child. I’m currently about 7dpo I think but can’t be too sure. My last cycle was 39 days and prior to that was withdrawal bleed 4 weeks after coming off the pill. I’ve had cramping and the odd pain for the last week so I’m hoping this is a good sign! Great to see so many bfps here! Smile

Crazymummyto3 · 02/01/2020 10:05

Woohoo, congratulations @botbird84 ☺️ Fantastic start to the new year. Hopefully we can form a little group to go through the experience together with the other bfps. Good luck to those of you still in the running 🤞
