@samantha06 yes I see it too especially in the first pic! Keep us updated, so exciting for you Grin

MrsBmaybebaby · 20/08/2020 11:27

@somanystars oh fingers crossed for you that you aren’t out this month! If only our bodies would just behave themselves

BellaBella84 · 20/08/2020 20:52

Hi everyone, got my static smiley yesterday but couldn't convince my OH to DTD until today. He's hating feeling scheduled and I'm hating not being pregnant! 😂

stepmumSW5 · 20/08/2020 20:58

@BellaBella84 my hubby also doesn't like it. But i got my LH peak today so he doesn't have a choice 😂

KirstySD · 20/08/2020 21:13

Hey everyone,

Hope you don’t mind me joining. We are trying to conceive babe no.2 and I’m not sure what is going on with my body 😂

I know I ovulated on or around 10th as got a smiley on the clear blue ovulation test on 9th. AF not due until 23/24 (who knows) but blood streaked discharged since this morning? No cramping really. Verrrrrry light morning and then went. Normally I have to use a heat pad or something.

Had implantation bleeding day after missed period and day of BFP with my son 🤷🏻‍♀️

Am I going mad? Thanks ladies and sending you all lots of baby dust x

BellaBella84 · 20/08/2020 22:25

@stepmumSW5 I take the vitamins which upset my stomach, sneezing constantly as no antihistamines to keep my CM at it's best, sneakily adding pre seed when he's not looking, getting up early to pee on sticks and I even bought something slinky and was like "Ta da sex on tap!" and can I get that man to so much as take a Vitamin?!

BellaBella84 · 20/08/2020 22:31

Also going to need some serious hand holding if this month hasn't gone to plan, next months fertile window coincides with my 36th birthday. Yippee. Nothing quite like another candle on the cake to make your ovaries feel geriatric! 👵🏻

stepmumSW5 · 20/08/2020 22:41

@BellaBella84 I managed to make mine take zinc but only if I put it in front of him every lunchtime. I totally get the sneaky pee on a stick (guilty here!) 😬 fingers crossed for our bfps🙏 hopefully you will be celebrating the bfp and your bday 🥰

High five to us "geriatric maternal age"ers! Such a rude term. Geriatric. Pfffff.

Although my hips and knees do hurt a fair bit after a good spot of dtd. 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

Hello everyone how are you all doing!!

Good morning ladies!

Woke up super eager to test with the clear blue digital.... not pregnant🤔
It came in a box of three, so i dipped again and used the last line one i had, and theres a line, faint but a line!
Are the digital ones not as sensitive?! No idea what to think now... but AF didnt visit ydayConfused help!! Lol

@abitfunny
Aw, dont let it deflate you, it could still be too early!
My period is a day late, i got negative test the day before, faint positive yesterday day of expected period, and my clear blue digital was negative this morning, but clear blue normal was another faint positive! Feeling really confused haha.

Waitingforbabypage · 21/08/2020 07:36

Is it best to use first urine for an opk? Or a specific part of the day, I'm reading conflicting info on the web x

samantha06 · 21/08/2020 07:37

@waitingforbabypage

They say first wee of the day as its the most concentrated 😊

Waitingforbabypage · 21/08/2020 07:42

Thanks @samantha06
There is deffo a line on that year by the way. No idea why the digital is saying negative. Why do they play with our emotions like this??!

somanystars · 21/08/2020 07:45

@Shinea and @samantha06 I can definitely see both your lines!!! 🥳

Caved and used my other FRER this morning, 11DPO, BFN :( Pretty sure I'm out at this point as I'm due AF tomorrow! Feeling bleh, but hey, it was never that likely to happen first time!

stepmumSW5 · 21/08/2020 07:48

@Waitingforbabypage depends on the test I think. With CB I read fmu on the instructions but with the easy at home ones I test from 11am to 4pm waiting at least 3h without peeing to take a test. And I don't drink too much.

stepmumSW5 · 21/08/2020 07:50

@abitfunny @somanystars You guys should wait at least a couple of days for AF to be proper delayed and take another test. You're not out until AF doesn't show up. X

igloo92 · 21/08/2020 07:56

@samantha06 @Shinea I definitely see those lines. Digitals are less sensitive, I think most people don't get positives on those till after af is due.

@somanystars @abitfunny you've both still got time before af is due so don't rule yourselves out yet. Fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞

@waitingforbabypage No, opks are best done in the afternoon as you usually get the LH rise in the morning so can miss it if you only use fmu.

samantha06 · 21/08/2020 07:58

@waitingforbabypage
I have no idea?! So annoying, im gona wait a few days before doing anymore tests.

@somanystars dont stress yet, my tests were negative the day before my missed period but faint positive on the day of my missed period!

Shinea · 21/08/2020 07:59

@somanystars you are not out until AF arrives!! All the best for you 🙂
I m still confused and scared about my tests, as last time when I got such faint line i had my periods very next day, so I am waiting to hold on tillAF( I havent shown my tests to DH yet )

MrsBmaybebaby · 21/08/2020 08:02

@abitfunny I don’t know much about pregnancy tests (first month!) but does that test show up as a cross if pregnant? If so, I don’t wish to be funny or that, but I feel like I can see a faint line there ? Bisecting the horizontal line?

Kg87 · 21/08/2020 08:03

@Shinea @samantha06 I can defo see lines! Congrats guys 🥳 although the digital one must not be as sensitive as the other one clearly shows a line!

@KirstySD that could be implantation bleeding! Sounds promising.

@BellaBella84 You're not alone, I have to put the vitamins in front of my husband in the evening and hand him a drink to force him to take them 😂

@abitfunny @somanystars I’m 11DPO too, did a test yesterday and this morning and both were stark white, but I could still be too early, I was fully expecting to wake up to AF today as I had lots of AF symptoms yesterday but not giving up hope yet!

Shinea · 21/08/2020 08:10

@igloo92 @Kg87 @somanystars that gives me bit hope. But still I am in a state of not believing yet, I know i am being too anxious but thinking to wait till Monday to test again if AF doesn't show up yet 🤞🤞
Best of luck to everyone :)
