@Bl0ndeye ah don’t - I am a very big believer in signs and now you have your squinter I’m all nervous!! Haha hang on in there for your next test, sending lots of positive vibes your way.

Hello to everybody who has joined since I last posted and thanks for the sympathies 💖 I’m staying super hopeful and crossing everything that THIS is the month! 🤞🏼

Only at 5dpo so I know it’s way too early to test, I just wish you could find out immediately, like confetti cannons going off after you’ve had sex like “YAAAAS THIS IS THE ONE!” I mean, I’m deffo not complaining about all the additional sex, but I’d like to know a little faster than 12-14 working days later 😂🙄

emiliet123 · 20/05/2020 08:44

@Anastacia1 ooh that does look like a line! Fingers crossed if you’re testing again x

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 08:46

Confetti cannons 😂😂😂
That would be cool.
I feel sick today really sick got like trapped wind too tho I dunno if I've got an upset stomach felt sickly since yesterday after dinner . I really wish I was having my day off so I could lie at home feeling sorry for myself

@Anastacia1 looks like a line to me too!! Exciting

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 08:48

Why's no one invented better pregnancy tests yet ? 🤣😂😂

DKDK123 · 20/05/2020 09:27

@Anastacia1 I can see the faint line, keeping everything crossed it keeps gets darker for you 🤞

@emiliet123 love the idea of confetti cannons to pinpoint the successful time that would definitely stop our TWW torture! 😂

I'm symptom spotting like mad every little thing I convince myself is a sign of early pregnancy and this is the month I'll be successful.....tho I've also done that every other month too when its ended up not successful. So annoying that many early pregnancy and pre period signs are the exact same! If we cant have a confetti cannon then mother nature should at least play fair and have completely distinct symptoms!

AuntieR456 · 20/05/2020 09:29

@Bl0ndeye I can totally see something on yours!! Fingers crossed 🤞

I caved and did one this morning before starting work ... not even a hint of a line. Really was hoping I had more willpower as only bought two cheapie Asda tests in our weekly shop. So I’ve told myself I have to wait until Saturday for the other one 🤦‍♀️ Feel like TTC is going to be more expensive than I realised if I keep testing early!! Does anyone trust any cheapie or amazon ones? Lovely to see lots of people joining, wishing everyone lots of luck 😘 Xx

AuntieR456 · 20/05/2020 09:31

@Anastacia1 eeeik that looks so exciting!!

Olivia2020 · 20/05/2020 09:42

Hi everyone,

I've been watching this post as I am 9/10dpo so due around the same time! Well I caved and did an IC this morning and I think I see a line?! What do you think? I've also been getting loads of sticky CM (sorry TMI) which is strange at this point! I have 2 frers but was going to save them for Friday!

1 week wait ..
kirinm · 20/05/2020 10:08

@Olivia2020 that definitely looks like a line to me

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 10:12

@Olivia2020 defo see the line x

OP posts:
Anastacia1 · 20/05/2020 10:24

@Olivia2020 looks like a line to me as well xx

Olivia2020 · 20/05/2020 10:42

Wasn't expecting it at all! Hopefully it will get stronger tomorrow!

Btw apart from the CM I have had no symptoms apart from abit of bloating last night!

kirinm · 20/05/2020 10:49

This is torture! My AF doesn't normally start until the evening of my last day so I can't even say I'm late until tomorrow at the earliest - if it started in the morning every month I'd be able to get vaguely excited by now.

I have looked at my other tests and there were definitely lines on them. It is so disappointing that they seem to have disappeared. I really don't like the internet cheapies at all. :(

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 10:50

@kirinm can you not buy a better test ??? Like FR?

OP posts:
kirinm · 20/05/2020 10:59

BIOnfrye - no not really. I'm working all day and by the time I could get out of the flat and put my DD to bed, it'll be 8pm. At that time, I should know if I'm late or not.

I have to say, I don't feel pregnant. I've got that heavy feeling in my abdomen and aches in my legs which I always get before AF. I started off saying I wouldn't be too upset if it didn't work this month but those lines confused me!

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 12:18

I'm tempted to go get FR tests on my dinner please someone stop me 😆😂

OP posts:
Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 12:18

@kirinm what about amazon ?? X

OP posts:
kirinm · 20/05/2020 12:45

If AF doesn't arrive today then I'll probably get a decent test but think I'm just going to wait for now.

Jemstar1820 · 20/05/2020 12:46

@Bl0ndeye I’m only 8dpo I have 2 FRER on their way with mr post man just now eeekkk but is it too early to test??

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 12:53

@Pengysaurus sorry to hear aF arrived - heres hoping next month is different 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

@Jemstar1820 im only 9dpo so I think if I test even if I am it won't show anything and if I buy them I'll take them haha so I'm waiting I'll amazon it later in week.
I prefer to see a big fat line or just come on my period than sit straining at lines 😅 plus last month I got a postive on a FR and Clear blue and then lost it like 4 days later so I cant deal with it again think I'll prefer to think it's just my period xx

OP posts:
kirinm · 20/05/2020 12:58

Period has arrived! Ah well, at least I know now. Good luck everyone.

Bl0ndeye · 20/05/2020 13:02

@kirinm sorry to hear 💗💗 fingers crossed for your next cycle keep us updated xx

OP posts:
emiliet123 · 21/05/2020 08:05

@DKDK123 argh I agree! And my period symptoms are rarely the same, some months my boobs ache, other times they don’t! Most months I get a migraine, too, which is hell on earth, but I had migraines pretty much all through the first trimester last time I was pregnant, so that doesn’t mean anything to me either!

@kirinm sorry about your AF 😖 so frustrating.

I had a dream last night that my friend who lives in NZ called me up to say she was pregnant and I just hung up on her and screamed for ages 😂 I swear, I would like to put a ban on all my mates having sex until after I get my BFP. There have been so many pregnancy announcements since we lost Maya - my sister, my next door neighbour, a pal from Uni... I’m genuinely happy for them but I need somebody to tell my face that! 😂 jealousy is a bitch and it doesn’t get you anywhere... but ignoring it doesn’t always mean it goes away!

Chlo2701 · 21/05/2020 11:29

So I wasn’t going to test until tomorrow, but 10DPO today & I had a dream I was pregnant last night, so caved & tested on a frer this morning. BFN 🙈 AF due on Sunday, but if it doesn’t come I’ll test on Monday again x
