Hey guys, so I'm 10dpo, having (good) symptoms and hoping by valentine's day I'll be getting a bfp, but if not roll on next month, is anyone in a similar boat and wanna share their story? This is my 12 cycle after 3 mc

@Muda thank you! It's been an emotional day so far! Been trying for almost 1 1/2 years so I can't quite believe it ❤️

Muda · 13/02/2020 14:40

@JC084 that’s awesome!
Have you told anyone yet?

Sazzy312 · 13/02/2020 14:48

@Muda no! I am bursting to tell someone hence why I'm on here 😂 can't wait until husband is home!

Hi! I'm thinking about testing tomorrow as well... just finished what seemed to be a period and now had 2 days of VERY strong positives on opks.. just seems weird as I've just finished thus period not even 4 days ago

Lisa127 · 13/02/2020 16:30

@Lmac2018 I did an opk with fmu a couple of days ago (don't know why but this TTC stuff drives me crazy) and the test line showed up straight away.
I've been spotting lightly and had a few cramps. Absolutely convinced period was on its way today, even had sex last night to being period on and while there was a little blood I'm not in flow today. I'm also convinced I ovulated (had cramps the day after static face in cb opk) 15 days ago.

Do you read into the positive opk equals positive hpt thing? Im thinking in my case it could just be an Lh surge before period, which apparently happens as a result of progesterone dip.

Lmac2018 · 13/02/2020 16:40

Hi! My period ended 3 days ago so I have no clue, but I heard you can get a surge of LH before your period??.. And I have read into the whole LH tests being used as a HCG test
.. that's probably why it's driving me crazy. My test line comes up waayyy before my control line and it's happened all day yesterday and even today around 2ish... it I really hard to pinpoint stuff like this cos I go crazy when it comes to symptom spotting and other stuff xx

Muda · 13/02/2020 16:41

@JC084 you have will power- I don’t know how I’d keep it to myself! Have you planned on how you are going to tell him?

@Lmac2018 good luck tomorrow!

Lisa127 · 13/02/2020 18:01

Yeah my opk test line came up strong as soon as the liquid hit it! I'm trying not to believe it as I'll be devastated when period most likely arrives.
Good luck testing!

manderleydreams · 13/02/2020 18:08

Testing tomorrow too! Had lots of ‘symptoms’ and have convinced myself that this month is it.

I do this every month though, so no doubt tomorrow will bring the inevitable downfall of a stark white test 😩

user1469567046 · 13/02/2020 19:57

Testing tomorrow too. Won't be til evening though, af due to arrive Saturday. Not sure what to think but definitely don't feel like I normally due when af is due.

Beanchopper · 14/02/2020 08:24

I actually didnt test 😱 I decided not to because one of my tell tell signs is I always burst into tears and feel really down in dumps the day before AF shows and that happened yesterday. So I am expecting it to arrive 🤦🏼‍♀️

Muda · 14/02/2020 09:18

@Beanchopper I didn’t test either. I have a feeling Af is coming and don’t want to waste another test. So just going to hold off

Beanchopper · 14/02/2020 15:02

@muda yeah best to wait. Glad I did because AF showed up! Another cycle of negatives! You would think after 10years I would get used to it 😥

butterflylove81 · 14/02/2020 15:09

My ovulation kit came strong 3 days ago then nothing on tests I was devastated and was in such a foul mood last night though af was here but I've had 3 positives this morning!

butterflylove81 · 14/02/2020 15:11

I cried all day yesterday was convinced it was pmt

user1469567046 · 14/02/2020 15:44

Congratulations @butterflylove81 when were you due af?
So sorry @Beanchopper it doesn't get any easier.

butterflylove81 · 14/02/2020 15:46

Tomorrow x

Muda · 14/02/2020 15:49

@Beanchopper sucks so much sorry to hear that ☹️

@butterflylove81 congratulations!!

@JC084 how you doing? How did hubby take the news?!

EmbarrassingMama · 14/02/2020 17:02

With my first I suddenly felt weird and got so hot I had to strip down to my pants and stand in the window!

Later that day I did an OPK and got v strong positive, which I thought was weird as I was convinced I had ovulated 3 weeks prior. Then when I googled other reasons for a positive OPK I was shocked to see pregnancy was one of them! But boom, that was my BFP.

Good luck all of you. X

JC084 · 14/02/2020 23:55

@Muda - absolutely thrilled! Early Valentines Day gift yesterday. He's not stopped smiling since! We've just been out this eve for dinner and at the theatre to celebrate :) thank you for asking :)

Fredthefrog · 17/02/2020 07:12

Congratulations @JC084 . No after yet but tested on Friday and no line so just waiting so we can try again in March.
