Hello, just a new thread for August...will add people as and when they finish with the 'July pact'

I think it's important to have a relevant thread once you are looking forward and gearing up for the next cycle...
Or chat turns to tww's when we will want to start chatting about ovulation again...

Will run both threads alongside each other ❤️

@Rotagilla definitely!! Congratulations! That's not even that faint. Woohoo!

whambam89 · 03/08/2020 10:36

@BuckleUp I feel like you can definitely get away with blaming it on nausea in the first trimester haha

Rotagilla · 03/08/2020 10:37

And @kirinm!
I think I can see a little shadow!
Can you invert the colours?
🤞🏻

@kirinm @rotagilla I can definitely see a line on both! How exciting for you! How many dpo are you both?

kirinm · 03/08/2020 10:39

This is it inverted

Rotagilla · 03/08/2020 10:40

I am afraid to believe it!!
I will do a frer in the morning!
I think I'm 12 dpo...

kirinm · 03/08/2020 10:40

@whambam89 I'm 11 or 12dpo. My AF isn't due until Thursday.

BuckleUp · 03/08/2020 10:43

@Rotagilla I can see a line on yours! Did it come up within the time frame? How many dpo are you?

@kirinm I think I see something, but the line may be stronger in real life rather than a photo. When is AF due?

Fingers crossed for some line progression for you both! I have a feeling this is a lucky thread 🤞🏻

@whambam89 I have told him I want to eat little and often 😂. To be fair I usually do that anyway - hangry is a constant mood for me!

BuckleUp · 03/08/2020 10:45

@kirinm @Rotagilla just saw your dpo answers. Keeping my fingers crossed those lines get stronger!

whambam89 · 03/08/2020 10:45

@rotagilla @kirinm you should both get a good line on a FRER in the morning then hopefully! Keep us updated, can't believe all the BFPs already only 3 days in to August!

whambam89 · 03/08/2020 10:47

@BuckleUp my sister is pregnant at the moment, around 12 weeks and she literally can't eat anything so you should make the most of it while you can!

kirinm · 03/08/2020 10:47

@BuckleUp I'm 11/12dpo but this wasn't FMU and it isn't a sensitive test. There is definitely a line but I don't want to get too excited about it as it is extremely faint. Wish I'd bought a better test now!

Rotagilla · 03/08/2020 10:47

@BuckleUp it came up straight away... I have two from previous tests and they don't have evaps so I'm excited to test with a better one tomorrow!
(Also it has words on it too, so would be wonderful to see 'pregnant')
I'm 12 dpo I think...

I don't know if I should use the frer today or wait for first wee tomorrow!

kirinm · 03/08/2020 10:49

@Rotagilla If I had a decent test I would definitely be trying again later but I don't want to influence you or anything Wink

LeopardLover · 03/08/2020 10:50

@Rotagilla Omgosh, that is so clear! Congratulations!! Hopefully tomorrow it will be even stronger. 🎉

@kirinm I can totally see something too!! It aligns with all your symptoms too!? Fingers crossed it'll get darker so we can know for sure - but hopeful!

Rotagilla · 03/08/2020 10:52

@kirinm I've just checked and it's a another cheap one 🙄 it's an actual one and not just a strip but cheapo none the less.
It's because I was obsessed with testing the first few cycles that I only allowed myself to buy cheap ones.
So tempted to pop out for a better one but I wouldn't be able to hide it from my son! 😂

BuckleUp · 03/08/2020 10:52

@whambam89 Thank you, great excuse. Though I hope I don't get nausea during this.. hope your sister feels better soon x

@kirinm Plenty of time for that line to get stronger then!

@Rotagilla I would holdout for FMU tomorrow, it'll help the test result be more reliable. Really hope you get to see those special words!

kirinm · 03/08/2020 10:57

The pharmacy close to me only sell Clear Blue digitals or cheap own brands that say not to test before AF due so I think I just need to hold out for FMU tomorrow and then if there is a line that is clearer, I'll get a better test.

I'm sure you've already said but how old is your son @Rotagilla ?

Rotagilla · 03/08/2020 11:04

@kirinm me too!
Have you told your oh?
I really want to surprise mine, I fibbed and said I was due at the weekend so he won't question me until then.

My son is 9 and desperate for a baby brother or sister, so there's no way I can shop with him 😂
Might pop out later tonight for a really good one!

OP posts:
kirinm · 03/08/2020 11:18

@Rotagilla do it! Our loca Sainsbury's only sells its own tests - which seem wholly unreliable - or clear blue. I think I'll see what the test says tomorrow and then go out hunting a decent test if it's a better line.

I've told my DP because he was trying to get me to do a covid test because I'm complaining about not feeling great and being very hot. I could be sick and my DD has recently had a cold but the clammy feeling and nausea made me wonder if I was actually pregnant.

kirinm · 03/08/2020 11:23

I've darkened the photo - this is why I shouldn't test early(!) and I think it's got colour. I hope this isn't a really bloody cruel indent.

August - might be a pact....might be madness
claireb707 · 03/08/2020 11:46

😮😮😮😮🤞🤞🤞👏👏 I see lines on both @kirinm and @Rotagilla

LuckyFlash · 03/08/2020 12:13

Think I got my BFP today too! 13 dpo. I’m on holiday and only brought one test with me so I’ll either have to just believe it for the next 2 weeks or try and get a digi here (will be funny getting ‘pregnant’ in a different language). I see lots of people continue taking tests to check the line is getting darker so I’m not sure if I should be doing that? Clearly a testing noob...

August - might be a pact....might be madness
LT103 · 03/08/2020 12:25

Wow @LuckyFlash that’s a great line!! What an exciting holiday!!!!

LeopardLover · 03/08/2020 12:37

@LuckyFlash Omgosh! There's no denying that line! Ahhhh! Congratulations! So happy for you too. What a lucky thread this is 💜
