Hey guys

Is anyone else in the TWW and want to join me in desperately trying not to test 😂

Currently 4DPO in cycle 9 of TTC, and frantically googling when is the absolute earliest I can test, driving myself insane!

How's everyone else finding the TWW at the min? Lockdown is making it harder cause I'm home all day with all my tests 🤦‍♀️

Baby dust to all x

So I've added both the normal and the b&w pic, I swear there's the start of something but I don't want to get excited incase it's an indent!

@bibs124 sorry to hear you're not feeling good! I also regularly get some nausea around OV! Our bodies are so cruel haha

@Jurassiclover I don't want to get your hopes but think I can see a faint line in both pics (slightly more obvious in the black and white though)...

I've had very very faint lines on frers before which turned out to be indents, but they don't usually show up on photos. Really hope this is good news for you! 🤞

JTB123 · 08/07/2020 14:39

@Jurassiclover I can definitely see a faint line!!

2020mission · 08/07/2020 14:48

@Jurassiclover I see a line in your black and white photo! Looks promising. Test again in a day or so and fingers crossed it will be confirmed with a stronger line

Eppy123 · 08/07/2020 14:51

@Jurassiclover I can definitely see a faint line there! How many DPO are you now? (Sorry if you’ve already posted this I got too excited for you when I saw that and haven’t scrolled back!)

I am definitely wasting money now as I have now taken 6 tests from various brands in 3 days 🙈

I used the digital one this morning that said ‘pregnant 2-3’ and it as weird seeing it in writing but I think I’m still in shock ... still haven’t told husband, I am absolutely bursting for Friday to come!

I also have an interview tomorrow for a new job which seems a total by the by now 🙈

bibs124 · 08/07/2020 14:53

@Jurassiclover I can definitely see a line! Grin

2020mission · 08/07/2020 15:09

@Bims2019 yes! Who else is joining the Friday testing club? 🙋‍♀️ it's a good day to test because if it's bad news we can have a drink that night haha. Bring on Friday for our testing and to hear all about how @Eppy123 gets on with sharing the news 🙌

Blossom428 · 08/07/2020 15:26

Hi ladies,
Hope you don't mind me tagging along. TTC #1
I'm currently CD20, 7dpo. Feeling very different to my usual before AF- usually I am very bloated and feeling shattered. But this time I feel quite calm. Slight twinges today- fingers crossed implantation.
Does anyone else track bbt? I have been last couple of months. Still high now which a good sign.
Last month I only had a 9 day LP so I'm hoping a little longer this month. I may test this weekend on Saturday/ Sunday.
Great to see some BFP already!!!

SCIAGx · 08/07/2020 16:19

@Jurassiclover I can see something 😊

Bims2019 · 08/07/2020 16:57

@2020mission bring on Friday!! Haha it definitely is the best day to test, and then we won't feel guilty about a cheeky beverage. Anyone else feel free to join Smile

@Eppy123 loving your will power, not too long to wait now! Will this be your first baby? Good luck for the job interview, there's no harm in going for it and then seeing how you feel afterwards!

@Jurassiclover have everything crossed for you!

Hi @Blossom428 Smile it's great that you're feeling calm this month, I've not tracked bbt before but am thinking about it for future cycles. Actually not used opks for the past couple of months either to try and take a more relaxed approach, but not sure that's working 😂 hope your twinges are signs of implantation!

Jurassiclover · 08/07/2020 17:14

So 8dpo so aware it's super early haha! I'm glad it's not just me seeing something! Definitely not getting excited yet though as I know a few have had indents on FRER recently!

@Eppy123 eeeek! Great that you got 2-3 on a digi that must've felt so exciting! Can't wait to hear how it goes on Friday!

@Blossom428 welcome! Keeping my fingers crossed for you when you come to test this weekend 🤞

I'll be testing again tomorrow with FMU as I have more FRERs so I'll see what happens tomorrow and update you all!

I can see the line on the black and white photo. Test again tomorrow?

I'm tempted to test at the weekend even though it's a bit too early. Family are visiting on Sunday for the first time since March and it would be nice to tell them. I didn't tell anyone until 12 weeks last time but I want to next time! Is CD25 too early to test with a FRER?

Eppy123 · 08/07/2020 17:27

@Bims2019 yeh first baby! I am so excited to see his face!

@Jurassiclover thanks! Let us know how it goes with testing tomorrow!

acaciabluebell · 08/07/2020 17:34

7dpo and I've got an ache/pain on my right hip / right side of lower back today. No idea what this could be... I do normally get back aches for PMS but it's normally all around my lower back. But this almost feels like when ovulation pain! What on earth.

Blossom428 · 08/07/2020 18:24

Thanks @Jurassiclover & @Bims2019

Yes I've tracked BBT because I wanted to actually make sure I was ovulating and they say a temp rise after ovulation is a good sign of this. This is only my second proper cycle so I'm still relatively new to it all. But so far the BBT has been correct in terms of last cycle it dropped on 9dpo and then AF arrived. So fingers crossed it stays up this time! Is a bit annoying though as you have to make sure you take it about the same time every morning!

It's easy saying taking the relaxed approach but it so hard to try switch my mind off things haha!

Jurassiclover · 08/07/2020 19:19

@helia yeah I'm gonna test tomorrow with FMU as today's was taken this afternoon! How long are your cycles usually?

@acaciabluebell that's so strange! I wonder if it's implantation maybe!

OP posts:
Blossom428 · 08/07/2020 19:20

Could be implantation pain @acaciabluebell ? I am 7dpo too and had similar pain today that was strange!

Blossom428 · 08/07/2020 19:20

2020mission · 08/07/2020 19:34

@helia how many days past ovulation would you be on CD25? I think from 12 DPO a FRER would show a line

2020mission · 09/07/2020 00:50

Hey ladies (those testing soon especially!), I was browsing the web and saw this photo attached showing how much sooner a FRER shows a positive compared to cheapies. It definitely seems best not to use the IC early as it's really not likely to show! I'm definitely going straight for the FRER on Friday

TWW - anyone want to join?

@2020mission oh wow! That's so interesting! I think if this doesn't end up being my month I may stock up on FRERs when they're on offer on Amazon then just use those from 10dpo onwards!

OP posts:
Itisme90 · 09/07/2020 07:39

@Jurassiclover oh I think I see the start of a line I have my fingers crossed for you

Jurassiclover · 09/07/2020 07:41

@Itisme90 thank you!
