Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for but I’ve not forgotten you just let me know when you ovulate/ know your test dates ☺️

@SmileyT you've been sick!! How many dpo??

@Newbie0818 sending you big hugs, so sorry for your loss!x

@mumof23188 I have that too! The last 2 cycles when I've had Ewan it's been really stretchy and quite a lot but like a very very pale yellow/cream colour because I was thinking oh it's night egg white or clear like everyone else's, but I deffo don't have an infection and there's nothing wrong with me so I think it's just different for every woman!

Well af showed up today whilst on a walk! I'm not surprised at all and I don't feel upset or gutted because I knew, I am so happy though that I haven't been in half as much pain as last month, must mean my periods are used to being off the pill now! So Cd1 of cycle 3, I'm not sure whether to take a more relaxed approach this cycle, no seeds no ass juice no Brazil nuts, I might only even do 1 opk around when I've been ovulating just to check then just DTD as we normally would everyday and see what happens! If I catch this month my unborn baby could be coming on it's first holiday to Marbella🌞

@

Just got an LH Peak so seems everything else was a bunch of rubbish woo lots of sexy time for me & DH now 😬

mumof23188 · 06/07/2020 13:47

@SmileyT so hard holding off on the testing isn’t it! Yes it probably is just after ovulation. It looks normal just very pale yellow against the tissue.

@Minster2012 god knows what it is 🤣

Minster2012 · 06/07/2020 13:58

Well I've just done an OPK and got this so low end of high?

KateColx · 06/07/2020 13:59

@Minster2012 that looks super high for just before AF doesn't it? I mean I don't use these ones but from what I understand it wouldn't be high normally now would it? The mystery continues 🧐 x

Mococo1 · 06/07/2020 14:05

@vil10 loving your attitude ! and sorry AF has turned up and unborn little one will probs be coming to Marbella as the one month you really wouldn't be fussed it would happen 😂

@balajake thank you defo lining myself up with Oreos now 🤣🤣

@minister2012 for some reason my LH shoots up just before AF comes just DTD anyway as we all say 😂

Minster2012 · 06/07/2020 14:11

Nope totally weird @KateColx & @Mococo1 & I had the most ewcm ever earlier, like a full on scoops worth 😂🤣

I am a medical mystery

Katao · 06/07/2020 14:26

Ooooo high opk and ewcm @Minster2012! You might get your freebie baby yet 😁🤞
Welcome @Gadea good luck. If in doubt have sex, thats the important bit 😉 the rest you will pick up as you go along (or hopefully not because you will just get pregnant 😁🤞)

chloedancer897 · 06/07/2020 14:35

Massive congrats to all the BFPs, it really brightens my day! Sorry to all the AFs and BFNs, fx for you all next month ❤️

KateColx · 06/07/2020 14:43

@Minster2012 right time to get jumping on DH 🤣

I've reached new working from home lows over here, went on a teams call with my hair unbrushed and zero make up on just glasses to try and hide some of my face. Also didn't have a bra on 🙃🙃 think I need to go into the office tomorrow just to force myself to look presentable.

LV1987 · 06/07/2020 14:49

@KateColx you have just described my work from home life. I'm not even sure where my bras are anymore 🤷‍♀️

Katao · 06/07/2020 14:54

Has anyone else seen a bit of FRER bashing lately? I thought they were the gold star of pregnancy tests and bought some this month for the first time. Used one 11dpo and had a bit of confusion about whether there was or wasn't a vvvvfaint line. Took it apart and there wasn't or it had disappeared anyway all negative since. But when I was googling saw loads of posts about faints/evaps/indents and since I've seen a few threads on here with similar comments. Are they not the bees knees after all? Any other brand people rate? I want to try a different brand opk next month as found my onestep ones a nuisance this month. The control lines were all different darkness so hard to compare test lines based on that. Anyway that was a bit of a ramble but if anyone has any recommendations for opks or hpts I'm all ears.

Minster2012 · 06/07/2020 14:55

Hi @Gadea! Welcome to the crazy bus...also, if in doubt ignore my body, ignore @Lucyrp's too as we are just doing our own thing in a weird non AF limbo just shagging away 😂🤣and we are all a bit sarcastic here in a very very supportive way!

@KateColx love that! God I hate not wearing a bra, totally need scaffolding here I hate "swinging free" Cos my boobs disappear into my armpits in the MOST unsexiest manner only reserved for evening lounging 🤣

@Katao brilliant, here's to a random chance at freebie baby 🙌🏻🤞🏻🤔

KateColx · 06/07/2020 14:58

@Katao I've seen a lot of similar comments on threads recently. I had a faint line last cycle early on but not sure if that was a CP or evap etc. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I always feel like CB is the one you'd want to see it on but a lot of people say not to use those until AF is late.

Cramps feel like they've been a little stronger this afternoon and just had some bright red tiny spots when wiping mixed in with brown so I think it's likely that this is just a really weird cycle and AF is on her way 🤯 x

lucyrp · 06/07/2020 15:01

@Katao I have seen a lot also but if you look on other pregnancy test brands too they're the same. I've come to the conclusion that sadly probably 99% of these reviews that they claim have had "false positives" are the result of a CP☹️

KateColx · 06/07/2020 15:02

@Minster2012 hahaha mine are similar tbh! A lot of losing and gaining weight over the years has left them a bit lifeless 🤣 the make up less face probably stopped any attention being drawn to them 🤣 x

Minster2012 · 06/07/2020 15:04

They should be talking to the face anyway @KateColx 🤣it's only polite!

A quick google about ewcm before AF suggests AF is on her way so add that to my google list 😂

lucyrp · 06/07/2020 15:04

@Katao the reviews that claimed there were indent lines were suppliers that had sold the first response early result fraudulently where they were in the correct box but the inside packaging was of a foreign brand.

Unfortunately as chemical pregnancy's are not a well known thing as most people don't know they've had them no one tends to talk about it which is why they would claim a false positive as it's just a faint line and then your period coming as usual. I for one didn't have a clue about them until I experienced one myself last cycle

Katao · 06/07/2020 15:12

@KateColx @lucyrp yes I did wonder if cps where to blame for some of the comments/threads. I suppose that would be the case for any brand. As you say they aren't well spoken about so would be chalked up as a false positive. Early testing is a head melter but then I'd rather know as well. I said to OH yesterday was this what it was like back in the day of no tests or contraception? Everyone just walking around all the time thinking maybe I'm pregnant/maybe I'm not 😱

SarahTTC2020 · 06/07/2020 15:15

Yes @Katao they often wouldn't have pregnancy confirmed until they felt the 'quickening' which was those first flutters of baby movements, otherwise just missed periods really which were probably fairly common given the malnutrition back then

lucyrp · 06/07/2020 15:17

@Katao its awful really and I would definitely say that testing before AF is very dangerous as you could have a lot of faint lines during the amount of cycles you are TTC because you're testing before which is when a CP happens which is normally before 4 weeks! although the plus you could get from it is thag you know you're catching j guess and you can speak to the doctor about it and it can be on your file for incase you have any complications going forward.

Vil10 · 06/07/2020 15:22

@Mococo1 hahaha I literally thought that, the one month I don't think about it and do everything I need to do it will happen!

Katao · 06/07/2020 15:25

Can you imagine it @SarahTTC2020, every time your tummy rumbled you'd be suspicious!
@lucyrp ya I'd rather know either way I think. Also I'd rather lower my expectations with an early negative than just be hit by af. Where were the fraudulent test being sold? Or was it various places?

lucyrp · 06/07/2020 15:29

@Katao I think everywhere. There was a review I read about false positives ans how they were "fake" tests and the woman had bought those from boots and stated that because they had the same batch number as ones she bought from amazon the whole batch must be fake! Honestly. The fraudulent ones have like a circle on the end with another circle inside it where as normal FRERS actually say first response on them. I'm sure one of the ladies actually had a foreign one in one of her pictures today or yesterday and I panicked a bit 🙈

2alreadywantanother · 06/07/2020 15:33

Well I've just ordered 10mlU sensitivity test. Hopefully here wed or thurs. So if af still not here I'll test. Rippen I didn't read up on the sensitivity before ordering lol ah well
