@stepmumSW5 ahh I remember the good old headaches 😂 I had a constant one for 2 weeks! I'm just feeling extremely nauseous with stabbing low down every so often. Makes me feel like I'm about to come on so I'm constantly going to check if I'm bleeding!

Stabal · 01/09/2020 09:15

@mrsgtobe97 I'm not sure I can see anything.. But try the frer and let us know!

Interestingly Fertility Friend has detected a triphasic pattern on my chart today!

stepmumSW5 · 01/09/2020 09:22

@Stabal I had a lot of AF like cramps yesterday. I'm trying not to worry but I'll keep doing the cheap tests to see the line progression xx

Stabal · 01/09/2020 09:30

@stepmumSW5 I definitely had AF cramps when I was pregnant, I thought she was coming every day for like 2 and half weeks before I tested. But I'm still panicky. Hopefully I can calm myself!

Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 09:50

I think I am out :( 10 dpo and BFNs

AF due Friday. I have been spotting with light with brown cm since 8 dpo. I don't spot that colour before AF and it is a bit early but I think that is it for me 😞 I wish I could join you ladies.

I feel so down it's been 20th cycle to bin now😞

butterfly5291 · 01/09/2020 10:04

@Crayon7 sorry you're feeling so down. Do you track bbt? If so what does that chart look like. 10 dpo is still early.
I caved and tested this morning too, obv BFN. I've felt queasy since last night but sure my body is playing tricks.

Stabal · 01/09/2020 10:06

@Crayon7 @butterfly5291 sorry for the BFNs. But I had a BFN on 10 DPO too! And the spotting could be a good sign so don't count yourself out yet!

stepmumSW5 · 01/09/2020 10:20

@Stabal 🤞 for sticky beans xx

Iloveoreos · 01/09/2020 10:21

Morning ladies

CD 15 today.. i did opk test on CD 13 night time and initialy it came as negative. I didnt wait long and threw it in the bin. The next day while doing the test again I saw that the stick I had thrown had a double line..i.e positive..does it count given that it was over 12hrs?? Also does anyone have headaches around ovulation time? I had a killer headache yesterday.
CD 14 test didnt show up as positive. Will take another test today in the next few hrs.

Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 10:24

@butterfly5291 this is my chart. I guess I will see if my temp is up or down tomorrow and test if it's up

It's not looking like pregnancy chart that's for sure 😞

mrsgtobe97 · 01/09/2020 10:42

Just took frer, not sure if that's anything or if it's just an evap, will test against tomorrow 🤷🏽‍♀️ hate not knowing 😂😂

stepmumSW5 · 01/09/2020 10:53

@mrsgtobe97 I'm not sure I can see something. It might be early. Wait one day and do another one on Thursday. hCG doubles every day so you should get a visible line in a couple of days. Unless it's really too early to test.

Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 10:58

@mrsgtobe97 how many dpo are you?

I see something but can't see colour - to be honest I always see indent lines on frer I think their lines are so bad as I always see them personally

Don't know what DPO I am as my cycles are so irregular and long I don't have a scooby when I ovulate, will just need to hang tight a couple days and see!

HopefulJester · 01/09/2020 11:47

Hi! New to this ttc business, would love some advice. I'm on my first cycle post pill and on day 33, no sign of period and BFN test. I am aware it can take a few months to get a period after going off the pill, those who don't have regular cycles or didn't have a period for a while after the pill, how often are you doing pregnancy tests while waiting? I was thinking maybe once a week?

I didn't do any tracking other than CM so no real idea when ovulation happened, had kind of assumed I could get tracking once my period arrived but radio silence on that front! Sad

Stabal · 01/09/2020 13:27

@Crayon7 looks perfectly normal to me! Still remaining high. If you have the membership for FF you can check out other people's charts and pregnancy charts can look all shapes, there's no real "trend". It's also worth while remembering a BFP relys on when you had implantation. The most common day is 9 DPO and you wouldn't get any noticeable HCG until at least 2 days after that so that's 11/12 DPO.. Say you didn't implant until 12 DPO that's right up until a day after your missed period. It's also known that late implantation shows a slower rise in HCG. So definitely not out yet!

Stabal · 01/09/2020 13:34

@Iloveoreos how dark a line?

Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 13:39

@Stabal thanks.

I bought VIP on ff too because I like to waste my money and yes I do check that comparison a lot.

I guess if I started spotting 8 dpo then tomorrow I should see something if there is anything to see. Scared to test though. May order more tests🤷🏻‍♀️

Stabal · 01/09/2020 13:43

@Crayon7 I have the VIP too as I really like the app. Much better than any of the others, I'd never pay for membership on the likes of Flo or Femometer. The spotting may not have been implantation, it's common to spot in the luteal phase if estrogen is fluctuating so it's all a game of limbo really unfortunately, that's why they say you're not out until AF comes

Iloveoreos · 01/09/2020 13:57

[quote Stabal]@Iloveoreos how dark a line?[/quote]
It was dark which is how I was surprised to see it.maybe i didnt wait long enough to check it before throwing it away..see pic below

TTC Baby no1. The crazy lot. Thread 2!!
Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 14:01

I have femometer membership but I had thermometer for 2.5 years and I think at some point I was just given it for free 😊 wouldn't pay for it but it's good

Crayon7 · 01/09/2020 14:08

Yeah spotting seems to have stopped for now will see. Our bodies are so strange I guess can't expect or predict anything!

Stabal · 01/09/2020 14:24

@Iloveoreos that's dark but still not positive. How do todays look? You could have peaked later that night by the looks of it

Iloveoreos · 01/09/2020 14:37

@stabal
The pic above is from CD 13. I did another on CD14 (pic below) which had a very very faint line :( Yet to check todays ..

TTC Baby no1. The crazy lot. Thread 2!!
Iloveoreos · 01/09/2020 14:39

The 2nd faint line is not visible in the pic above but it was very faint so definatelt a negative for cd 14 .
