Hi ladies ❤️ I don't know how high my chances are of conceiving this month as feel we may have missed our window, however I am 7 days off AF and I know it's to early to test, anyone else want to join the 7 day wait? These last few days are the WORST 😂

@Leobaby are they both last nights test? I see a hint of a line on both pictures

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 12:35

@Nov19 yes both. The ones this morning are completely white so I didn’t bother with a pic literally a BFN

HollowayL30 · 22/07/2020 12:40

Seeing these tests makes me so want to do one! My AF is due tomorrow, I don't feel like I'm coming on. With my last pregnancy I done a test one night and there was a faint line, so thought I'd test again in the morning with stronger urine and it was negative. I was convinced I wasn't pregnant as it was such a surprise but turned out to be positive so fingers crossed for you @Leobaby X

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 12:43

Ooo really @HollowayL30 that gives me some hope thank you because that’s literally me right now. I need that. When did you do another test a s get your bfp after your negative? Ahhh when are you going to test?! X

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 12:44

*and

Nov19 · 22/07/2020 12:45

@Leobaby 8dpo is still really early, implantation May not have even occurred yet. I tested at 6DPO and got a clear line, next day completely negative, I was gutted. I’m convinced cheap amazon tests aren’t the way to go but I can’t stop ordering them

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 12:49

@Nov19 ah I know. But because I dtd before ov, I’ve read If the sperm are there when egg is released it can fertilise straight away? Then implantation can happen as early as 5dpo so I was thinking maybe that was the case for me. Wishful thinking! Was that this month you did that? I just have a box of 50 strips so I can kinda do it whenever lmao. 😂

Wherethereshope · 22/07/2020 12:51

I'm testing on 29th.. I'm going crazy and my boobs feel enormous this month!

I'm desperately trying not too test early.. I need to see the words as the lines make no sense to me.

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 12:55

@Wherethereshope finally someone who has sense 😂 I should’ve done the same tbf. I was in the shop earlier looking at clear blue but I was like nah I ain’t getting it I’m not pregnant. The bfn threw me off today for sure I’m feeling sorry for myself 😂 I’m in pain from walking too so even more annoyed lol.

HollowayL30 · 22/07/2020 13:08

@Leobaby so I done this one the 29th Nov- the next morning I took another early results test and it was negative. My period wasn't due till about 4 days. I then tested after my period and it was positive. I had only just got with my partner who I have known for years however he is from Australia and I'm UK. He is still here now 😂 so I was convinced I wasn't pregnant with being on the patch aswell. But turned out we were. I have hope for you. I'm due to test Saturday at dinner, we wanted to film it and make it fun then if not going out for some cocktails. 🥂

HollowayL30 · 22/07/2020 13:09

This was the picture from 29 Nov 2018. Then I tested next day which was negative just to give you an idea of the lines. @Leobaby

7 days until AF, anyone else?
Leobaby · 22/07/2020 13:17

@HollowayL30 it’s kind of similar! It’s annoying cos in person it’s deffo there. I may just have to wait then until my af is due. Wow really? That’s amazing tho! Was meant to be lol! And thank you for your positive words and support it means a lot. And aw that’s cute! My partners birthday tomorrow and we were also gonna go out for cocktails Saturday! 🤪

greenjavapiano · 22/07/2020 13:29

Hi all, I’m 3/4 dpo today, cycle day 20, so due on in a week or so. TTC 2+ years. Had early mc in May then went mad symptom spotting last 2 months. Not getting my hopes up this month can’t take any more disappointment!

Kristy17 · 22/07/2020 13:29

Hello, hope you don’t mind me joining. I’m 11DPO, first month TTC after having my copper coil. I already have a 20 month old daughter so this will be our second. I started testing on cheapies at 8DPO as I couldn’t resist but used a FRER yesterday and got a 2nd line!! Some more arrived in the post today so will test again tomorrow, sure I saw a squint of a line on a cheapie this morning so fingers crossed it’s going up. Guess I’ll see tomorrow, then I might believe It haha.

MummyFD · 22/07/2020 13:36

Hi @Kristy17 oooh that's exciting that there was already a faint line!
@Leobaby don't get disheartened, I heard that HCG fluctuates and actually FMU isn't always best. With my DS I got a positive in the middle of the day 6 days before on a boots cheap test ❤️

MummyFD · 22/07/2020 13:37

@greenjavapiano so so sorry to hear of your loss. Fingers crossed for you this month. 3/4dpo is the tough one I bet you're itching to test!! ❤️

OP posts:
Kristy17 · 22/07/2020 14:11

@Leobaby I’ve actually heard that too, especially when it’s before your period. I can across a graphic but frustratingly I can’t find it again.

@greenjavapiano sorry I missed that you had had a loss, I’m sorry to hear that. My fingers are crossed for you. Sending lots of virtual hugs.

Workingmama1 · 22/07/2020 14:21

Hi ladies, hoping to join! I think I'm 5 dpo (although I didnt get a peak on OPKs) and CD21, think AF due next Wednesday/Thursday. I have a 19 month old daughter and had a MMC at 11 weeks in April, so now in cycle three post miscarriage.
Not feeling that confident this month as I think our timing was off and the lack of peak but have my fingers crossed still 😀. Too early to start symptom spotting but sure I will soon enough!

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 14:41

Thank you @MummyFD I will just have to stop testing and wait a few days and be patient. Did you carry on to get bfps after? X

@Kristy17 well maybe there is still hope but I’m not gonna get my hopes up. Thought surely If I was I’d deffo have some sort of faint line today but who knows.

Wherethereshope · 22/07/2020 15:21

Have you all felt different in any way? I feel like I'm getting twinges in lower abdomen, and swollen boobs - DH says I always say this but this month definately bigger. I have gained a bit of covid weight though Hmm

Nov19 · 22/07/2020 16:38

I’m not seeing things, am I?

7 days until AF, anyone else?
Leobaby · 22/07/2020 16:48

Ooo that’s a definite line @Nov19 congrats!!Flowers

HollowayL30 · 22/07/2020 16:57

@Nov19 I can def see a line!! Congratulations!! xx

Nov19 · 22/07/2020 17:01

@Leobaby thank you! I thought because I tested negative at 9dpo then I didn’t stand a chance. I’m going to confirm with a clear blue digital in a few days, I feel like I won’t believe it until I see the words (especially after the evap line a few days ago)

greenjavapiano · 22/07/2020 17:47

My boobs are sorer this afternoon. Glad I'm on annual leave this week and can do something nice to distract myself (mostly) from the symptoms Confused

@Wherethereshope I don't normally get swollen boobs during tww (just a bit sore) so would say that's a positive sign.

@Nov19 congratulations Smile the line's dark enough that I didn't have to open the photo

@workingmama1 Sorry to hear about your loss Flowers. The only month I got a positive test I was sure our timing was wrong too, and not often enough!

@Kristy17 don't worry it would take ages to fully read every post, I haven't. In my experience there's not as much dye in the thin strip tests, for me they were always fainter than the stick tests I've used so I wouldn't worry about the faintness.
