Early testing / symptom spotters anonymous continued...

[Mrschips07]

@Libbyvmama @LT103 @MrsF18

I made us a new thread to continue with the crazy TTC weirdness discussion.

AND @Sdoo4 Congrats again on your BFP!

How are you all doing?

Anyone else welcome to join ofc!

Yay!! I’ll def join in! Cd13 and got peak opk this morning just to nicely coincide with oh good away with work for 2 days 🤦🏻‍♀️ Managed to dtd last night so hopefully good enough. Due to ovulate tomorrow but already feeling crampy. Then it’s the 2ww and back to the symptom spotting haha

Yay @LT103 they do say that DTD before O is much better chances wise, than after - so thats good!

I did a final frer today just to rule out a surprise BFP, I still feel so weird! Been feeling sick in the mornings and everything!

Not supposed to ovulate til 27th according to my app, but I'm already getting twinges and lots of EWCM so hoping do DTD tonight. Fingers crossed!

I did an ic pregnancy test after my period this cycle too. Just in case 🤦🏻‍♀️ What stage are you at now?

We managed cd 9, 10, 11 and 12 this month so if I ovulate day 14 I’ve given it a shot.

Amazon package came today with another box of cheap hcg tests and 2 frer. Bring on the 2ww!!

I'm on CD11 (I think, thats 11 days past start of my AF right?) If i were to guess I think i'll ovulate on CD14, even tho my app thinks it'll be CD17. So time to DTD lots basically!

This time I'm not buying any tests til at least 12dpo!

Hello all! This sounds like the group for me!

Welcome @Bluesky2021 ! Where are you at in your ttc journey?

Hey all! Thank you so much!
Still on my period! Boooooo!
But! Next month 🤞🏼
I hope you're all doing well!!!

I think I’m ok to have the tests in the house. Not sure I’ll hold out much beyond 10dpo going by previous months though after last month I’m ignoring any faint lines!!

Thanks for adding me! I got my bfp too last cycle! 😃😃 so I’ll be 6 weeks on Thursday. I’m so excited but never thought I would be this anxious! I’m terrified that it doesn’t work out.. but I’m really trying to stay positive! This is my first pregnancy so I guess im bound to be nervous! But I’d love to stay on this thread and keep my fingers crossed for all of you!! X

Urgh, I’m in!!
I’m on CD18, this is the first month TTC no.3.

hi there 😁 I've had 2 MCs in the past, and in this cycle I am currently heading into my 2ww! I'm feeling fine and pretty strong at the moment - I do have my moments (as we all do) but trying to work through the anxiety and any sadness with exercise which is relatively new for me 😂.

Nice to meet you all. I have shared news of bfp too quickly with family and friends in the past (and things haven't worked out) so I am going to try to channel my ttc chat energy here!

In a weird turn I think i got a very very very faint line yesterday but it is so early in my cycle that I am extremely dubious and am trying to refrain from testing until Thursday or Friday if I can. Last month I spent an absolute fortune on frers. Oh and i have breast tenderness which was my reason for testing so I'm just keeping fingers crossed 🙏

I'm cycle day 15 and usually around 26 day cycles

Can I join!? POAS addict here!

I'm 9 or 10DPO today (FF kept swapping ovulation date). BFN yesterday and today. I'm not holding out much hope after today's bfn (obviously being a true POAS addict I used a whole bunch of tests... you know, just to be sure!). My luetal phase is usually about 11 days so I'm expecting af tomorrow or Thursday anyway.

Keep telling myself a bfn means a bfn and also that I may as well just wait for af ... but we all know I'll be rummaging through my super secret pregnancy test drawer tomorrow morning whilst doing the wee dance as I try to hold in my precious FMU 😂

@MummyOfZog this is my first month of secret testing 😂 I sneak them in and keep my info quiet as last month i had about ten i brought out regularly to line up and compare 🤷‍♀️ far too costly so secret it is 😂

@MummyOfZog hope your bfn turns to a bfp 💕

Omg laughing at the secret testing. I have all my opk and pregnancy tests hidden in a drawer and a cupboard in bathroom. In all fairness I could prob have them lying out and oh wouldn’t notice but I feel like I need to have them hidden. I don’t want hi to think I’m obsessing over it as he’s very much of the “it will happen when it happens“ thinking.

And @MrsF18 congratulations!!!!!!!

Hi girls!

Can I please join, ima POAS addict too, love a secret test before I test with my other half, symptom spot galore and test after my period just in case 😂

Round 4 TTC for my first baby, had my static smiley on a clear blue test yesterday as well as what I think was an ovulation bleed - never had one before so hoping it’s a good sign!

Love reading your posts and seeing that I’m not alone in my addiction!

I would love to join . I am cd21 and around 6dpo . I got my peak last Monday with a ic and static smiley CB both Monday and Tuesday . Flo app said I would ovulate last Wednesday. We dtd the 4 most fertile days and 9 days until AF due and trying hard to not symptom spot and test until AF🤣. Only symptom really is intermittent twinges and my boobs have become very tender today. Although I know I am still far too early for it to be pregnancy related.

I'd love to join! Had two either false positives last weekend, one was Monday morning. Tested yet day, bfn on clear blue. Positives have been on IC. I've had a really big stabbing pain Saturday - which I remember happening when I got pregnant with my son. A few niggles and stretchy feelings but no breast tenderness, but my breasts haven't hurt before/during periods since I had a miscarriage in May! So weird?! Does this mean I may not even be ovulating?! Bought o strips this month but they didn't really tell me much xx AF due in 10 days I think?!

Photos of tests attached x

I'm driving myself mad with it all, thrown all my tests in the bin! Clear blue early response test I did after the other ones said negative so I lost all hope.

Won't let me post pictures? 😂

If you’re a new user you won’t be able to post pictures. False positives are very rare. Clear blue tests aren’t particularly sensitive, especially not the digital ones. I’d get a first response.

Oh right, I've been on here since 2016, how long is it until I'm not a new user anymore? Thank you xx

It was a ultra early response one with blue dye xx but I am testing really early with it being 10 days until expected AF.

Thank you x

Not a new user then 😂 I don’t know why it won’t let you post pictures.

I personally prefer pink dye tests, that’s just me though.

He he, I don't know! 😂 Yes, me too about the pink dye. I guess another trip to the shops is in order...not just yet though! Xx

I got a case positive last month at either 10 or 11 dpo on an ic. It was an obvious line with colour But followed up with bfn. I’m definitely being a bit more wary this month.

Had peak opk all day yesterday and still peak today? Cramping lots this morning so hoping it’s ovulation. Will keep checking temp to see what happens
