Anyone due AF 1st July?

[DawnLaura]

Hey everyone,

Anyone else due AF around the start of July and just about to enter the TWW? I had a chemical last month but got right back to trying so keeping everything crossed for a positive result and a sticky one this time.

Just wondered if anyone wants to join me on the dreaded waiting game.

@Leobaby I actually found the dipping sticks rubbish! Can you try one with a window?x

@kate123cl I don’t have any on me no. I could get one for tomorrow. Did your dipping stick say bfn too? Ah so stressful. I need to remind myself that I have every month to try again lmao x

@Leobaby I'd probably get one tomorrow. A FRER would be best but I only use the poundland ones and think they're great. My dipping stick ones are still almost negative, you have to squint really really hard! This was one from this morning, hardly even there!x

Oh wow @kate123cl that is very very faint isn’t it. Can still see the line though at least. The test I have detects 25miu. Is that too high? Would I need one that detects 10? When I use one of those calculators online it says I’m about 3 weeks 4 days approx if I was to be pregnant, is that too early too? Ah okay I’ll have a look, as I’m far from city centre to go to Poundland or other shops I’m relying on amazon at the moment lol. So does your line come out stronger on other tests? X

@Leobaby 25MIU isn't very sensitive at all! My dipping stick below was 20MIU and it hardly shows up. You'd most probably get a result with 10MIU. I'll attach a test which used 20MIU earlier on and then the darker test is 10MIU! When is AF due for you?x

Better pic of the one from earlier x

Ah okay thank you so much! @kate123cl you’re definitely helping me a lot today. There is a big difference. I will deffo get 10MIU then my bad! It’s due between 1st-4th July. It varies sometimes.. but last month it was 31 days so If its the same this month then will be 1st July. What about you? I’m guessing if it’s a bfn on frer my period will most likely arrive lol x

@Leobaby No problem at all! If you have a negative on FRER it doesn't mean you're out 100%, your hormone levels may still be low. I'd definitely use some 10MIU and then see how you get on from there!x

@kate123cl thank you so much. I will definitely do that, see what happens. Thank you! X

I’m now spotting. Maybe af is coming earlier than expected.

No sign of af! It’s strange, I’ve not experienced that kind of spotting before. It was literally spots like freckles of blood. 2 wipes and it was gone. Nothing since, fingers crossed this has nothing to do with af!

@Leobaby that sounds promising 💕 I am the same . Keep thinking AF has started and it hasn't

@Leobaby I completely agree with @kate123cl I got my BFP on a FRER and CB digital last week and all dipping sticks were BFN, I’ve heard really crap things about them, even people with bumps getting BFN!

@1992EM I hope so! Oo hopefully it’s a good sign for both of us. 🥰 have you tested yet?

@Littlebee1990 ah well I’ve deffo wasted my money there then! I’ve read so many mixed reviews on them. I have frer coming tomorrow, might see if I can hold off for a couple days in case af does arrive.

@Leobaby I tested yesterday on a frer and was negative. Think AF is coming. It's not pink when I wipe and will most likely lead to full blown AF . At least if that is the case I am back to my regular cycle so that is something at least .

@1992EM Sorry to hear that x

I got a BFN yesterday and my BBT has totally flopped this morning so I think I'm out

I'm definitely out this month I think. Did another test yesterday and BFN. I think that squinter I had earlier must have been an evep as there's really been no hint of another line since and I've taken 4 tests now in total. Bit gutted as I was really hoping after my chemical last month I'd be more fertile this month and it would be my time. Ah well... just waiting for AF now. No sign of it yet and due tomorrow, but then also worried that my chemical has messed up my cycle completely and I could be totally off with my dates.

@1992EM oh bless you. Do you normally get spotting before af?
I’ve not had anything since that spotting yesterday.. I don’t normally get it before af but a part of me thinks it’s something to do with it. I haven’t done a test this morning I feel like waiting till tomorrow as I’m due anytime now. X

Also, can anyone tell me, if I use a frer a few days before my period or either day af is due and it comes back negative, does that mean I’m deffo out? Seeing as the results are detectable from 6 days early.. I haven’t tested yet.

Af has arrived for me! Well that’s what my spotting was then, hopefully next month!

Hey everyone! Hope you don't mind me joining, congratulations on all the BFPs it's all so exciting! I'm currently 9dpo due AF on the 3rd or 5th I'm not really sure I have ovulation like pinching/aching, anyone else? X

@kate123cl Thank you. Spend the day planning next month and cleaning the house. Feel better now and more in control . Have ordered ovulation tests and downloaded the flo app. I need to know when I ovulate 😂.

@Leobaby Sorry to hear that 😔 take care of yourself and next month will be a lucky one .

@1992EM I will do. Things are a bit confusing for me right now anyway. Thank you, good luck for next month too! Flo app wasn’t very good for my irregular cycles. I definitely confused the app. Have you ordered the cb digital opk? I find that the best and I now know when I ovulate! 😅

@Leobaby I have ordered clear blue and a cheaper brand aswell. I have never used them before. Sorry to hear Flo didn't work . My cycles are pretty regular apart from last month where I have no idea what happened 😂 . Even just to know that I do ovulate will give me some peace of mind .
