@SunnySideUp2020 oh wow double congratulations! That ring is gorgeous! Your DP has done well there.

And that definitely looks like the start of a BFP. For 11dpo I'd say that's a pretty obvious line! You must be in shock!

Also, I'm so envious of your tan! 😑

Congratulations - I'm so pleased for you, and your doctor was right when she said you'd be pregnant before August!

Wow @SunnySideUp2020 what an exciting morning! Congratulations! That ring is amazing! And definitely a line on your test, fingers crossed this is the start of a nice bfp for you!

Oh wow @SunnySideUp2020 this is fantastic! Congratulations!!🎉🎉 what a day for you! That ring is amazing🤩!!

Wooohoooo @SunnySideUp2020 amazing news on the proposal AND the BFP! What a day! 😍😍❤️❤️

Oh my goodness YAYYYYYY @SunnySideUp2020 I am over the moon for you!! And a proposal the same day 😍😍😍😍😍 this is just amazing news. Try not to worry about the strength of the line, mine was still quite faint at 15dpo!! That's definitely a BFP though. And a BFD (love that @Annny27 🤣) what a beautiful ring!! Sending you and your DP all the luck for this baby and the start of your engaged lives together - enjoy this moment!!! Xx

Thank youuuu ladiess
@Annny27 love the bfd 😆
The ring is gorgeous 😍 the fiance too 😇

As for the bfp, we are excited but not getting too excited (even if it's hard!) Because periods not due until thursday.

Now my dilemma: i used my last frer from uk and have no other early test with me.
I think i want to test again in two days to make sure it's not a cp.... but what will i compare to?!!!

Will need to try pop into a pharmacy on Monday or tomorrow if it's even open here in france...

Also funny story DP and I literally both went "ahhhh so that's what it looks like when there is a faint line" 😅

After months of looking at all angles shining torches for hours etc... and still maybe thinking there is something (both of us imagining- madness)

Also the test got much clearer after!!

@SunnySideUp2020 ahh congratulations that’s amazing news both on the BFP and the BFD!! A very exciting day for you.

Pretty sure AF is round the corner for me so prob won’t bother testing until Tuesday now.

Aww @elm7
What makes you think that AF is coming?
Honestly this time i have absolutely nothing different from a normal cycle... so so hard to tell.
Will still have my fingers crossed for you x

@SunnySideUp2020 the usual symptoms. Dull ache/cramps and backache but the main one is RHR has dropped by 2 bpm today.

Know I’m not out until AF arrives but think that will be the result for this cycle and I had been feeling so positive that this month was going to be the one.

@elm7 the back ache and dull period thing were the symptoms last time for me ...
So still hoping this is your month!

@SunnySideUp2020 try not to worry about different brands. Id just work on the basis that so long as there is a line it's positive and then you can test again in a few days using the same brand to see if it's darker.

@ELM7 it's crap isn't it. Prepare for the worse and hope for the best tho!

I'm on CD18 and no signs at all of ovulation 😑 I really hoped last month was a one off blip but it's not looking that way. The acupuncturist did say my cycle might not go back to normal straight away after my epic 75 day-er but I really just assumed and hoped it would go back 😒

@Fizzl soo annoying this confused uterus but is there any line on opk at all??

Arhhhhhh! @SunnySideUp2020 ! This is amazing news to see 🎉💒🌈👣 I'm so happy for you on your engagement I've got the tears lovely, you must be over the moon and as for that test 😆😬 obviously absolutely every part of my body crossed it's one that sticks and you can join the pregnancy club xx

@SunnySideUp2020 no they are very negative ☹️ Although mine does seem to just jump from negative to positive quickly I don't normally get a gradual build up but there's just no other signs of ovulation yet at all!

These are today's two tests 🙄

@Fizzl tonight s one is on the high!! I'd say it will happen sooner than you think!

@ChampooPapi thanks lovely xx
Very pleased with today... was quite magical 🥰

And to my fellow ttc ladies, honestly don't even bother with those one step cheapies.
They re so so so faint i can't even take a decent picture. On the other hand, pleasantly surprised with boots pregnancy strips (packs of 5). I only had those left now and did one out of curiosity not expecting much as i know these aren't "early" ones and i got a line. Just like the frer!

But yean forget about one step super early. Such a scam!!!

Congratulations @SunnySideUp2020 on your engagement!!! 😃😃

Yes @SunnySideUp2020!!!! I'm so frigging happy for you! Congratulations lovely!

Thanks @Nuggetlover27 and @Ejb86
😘😘😘

@SunnySideUp2020 thats a really good evening line for 11dpo! Deffo a bfp!!!! I'll miss you when you leave us 🥺🥺🥺 but hopefully we can all join you soon 🥰🥰

@fizzl ahhh thats gutting no ovulation signs yet! Not even ewcm? Hopefully it isn't toooo delayed 🤞

@ELM7 sorry you think AF is arriving:( its always gutting!!

Cycle day 8 now and dtd every other day. Havent been using opks and not sure I will this month. Cba to make sure I am hydrated enough but also not too hydrated so that I can get a decent opk result haha

@Annny27 i am still here!!
Woke up with a cold and been having a Bartholin cyst for 3 days now.
Was awake in the middle of the night my body was aching and i felt so rough so now worried i caught something.

DP and I have our flight to Reunion island on Friday and our covid 19 test on Wednesday that needs to be shown negative upon boarding or else we won't be allowed to fly there

Then was thinking maybe i have low progesterone so i need a blood test etc etc

Basically the middle of the night anxiety :(

So yeah for now i am here and until thursday when period is due not gonna move anywhere 😶

As for your cycle, are you still using preseed?
This was our first we didn't use it at all.

@Annny27 nope nothing 😒 and my skin has cleared up again which is great but also a give away that somethings not right again as my skin normally breaks out 🙄 I have no idea what's wrong with me. I'm seeing my acupuncturist again on Tuesday so hopefully she can get things moving again like she seemed to last time for me.

I don't blame you not using opk's. The hydration balance struggle is real!

I'm also missing everyone on this thread - it's getting very quiet on here now! Which is great and I'm so happy for everyone as it just shows there is so much hope after this whole saga. I just don't think I ever thought I'd still be here in August! 😒

Eeeekkk congratulations on your engagement @SunnySideUp2020 what an absolutely stunning ring!!! How exciting!!! And congratulations on your bfp too, what an overwhelming few days for you! 💞
Hope you feel a bit better in the next few days xxx
