Me too! currently 5DPO & been TTC since July xx

beanchopper17 · 13/11/2020 23:02

@hopefully2021 I hope you get some good news soon! Will this be your first? When do you think you will test?

I have sadly been trying over 10years with no success, a few medical reasons and can't get an extra help or investigation as I am over weight.

This is the first cycle in a long time I feel really hopeful Smile

Hi me too! I’m currently 6dpo ttc after 3 miscarriages this year,
When will you be testing? X

beanchopper17 · 14/11/2020 21:57

@Sallyjo27 sorry to hear about your losses, it's so tough, I lost a pregnancy at 7weeks last year, the emotional toll is hard to deal with.

I will be trying to hold testing till about 9/10dpo but I am a test addict, soooo any day soon 😂 when do you think you will test?

OP posts:
Sallyjo27 · 14/11/2020 22:34

@beanchopper17 I’m so sorry, it’s just completely shit isn’t it 😩
I’m a test addict too! I will be testing Tuesday I think.... if I can hold off until then 😂 x

beanchopper17 · 14/11/2020 22:43

@Sallyjo27 Tuesday seems reasonable, the temptation is just to strong!

Have you been symptom spotting? I try my hardest not to but had undeniable real low cramps that have got stronger as the day has gone on but I have IBS so it's easy to get confused 😂

beanchopper17 · 14/11/2020 22:49

So confused I have been tracking my cycles on glow and fertility friend.

On glow it says I am due on 22nd nov and I am 6or7 dpo (can never read glow properly) but of fertility friend it says my period is due 24th nov and I am 5 dpo! Confused.com 😂

@beanchopper17 I’ve double checked my app too and apparently today I’m 8dpo. So being a testing addict I tested this morning and it’s a bfn. I’ve not really had any symptoms to be honest- some cramping and sore boobs but that’s the norm for me before af comes x

Sallyjo27 · 15/11/2020 08:56

@beanchopper17 when did you get a positive ovulation test?

beanchopper17 · 15/11/2020 10:52

@Sallyjo27 well I got positive (both lines same darkness) on 7th but on the 8th I got my first ever (in 10years) test line was darker than the control line, I actually cried haha

I have been taking supplements to help with PCOS and improve my ovulation so I am hoping I am seeing the benefits soon!

I think I might test tomorrow, I will either be 7or8 dpo 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sorry to hear you got a bfn this morning, still plenty of time, everyday af stays away there's hope!

OP posts:
Sallyjo27 · 15/11/2020 18:19

@beanchopper17 I’m glad you got your positive OPK! TTC is no where near as easy as they teach in school is it? 😩

Ooohhh good luck! Keep us updated, I think I’ll be testing tomorrow again too... and probably every day until AF comes 😂

beanchopper17 · 15/11/2020 18:22

@Sallyjo27 my tests turned up early (got to love amazon) I caved and tested, I know it's negative but I have major line eyes!

@beanchopper17 I can definitely see a line! It’s faint but it’s there!!

beanchopper17 · 16/11/2020 10:11

@Sallyjo27 tested again this morning and negative, the above must of been an indent or something. I will try and leave it a few more days. But as much as I hate symptom spotting I have terrible acid, which makes me feel nauseous! I am either 7or 8 dpo!

How are you getting on?

OP posts:
Sallyjo27 · 16/11/2020 11:05

I’ve tested this morning and it was a faint positive with first response, but the cheapies are a definite negative so no idea what’s going on. I feel like AF is coming too
I’m sorry it was a bfn this morning. I think mine is a false positive too. Going to stock up on more tests tonight after work

Hey all can i join you girls xx
@beanchopper17 @hopefully2021 @Sallyjo27 all fingers crossed
You get your BFP 🤞

Im too am a major test addicted, currently 6dpo havent caved yet which is new for me lol literally having to hold myself back from testing, think im getting withdrawal symtoms lol 😆

We are TTC for our first for 5 month now and completely agree with @Sallyjo27, TTC is no way easy as school makes it out to be lol

Im 🤞 for this month as i have been experiencing different symtoms that i don't usually get (TMI alert ) 5/6dpo excessive white watery CM to the point i thought my period started or wet myself ☺ and consipation which is also new since taking the prenatal vitamins, im so sorry TMI

Im trying not to read to much into it tho fingers crossed and baby dust for us all x x

beanchopper17 · 16/11/2020 13:21

@Sallyjo27 I see some too, it's either a bad indent (heard frer are terrible for indents) or a vvvvfl 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 I have reversed for you, hopefully it gets stronger!

@Sandiesands hellooooo welcome! Symptom spotting can drive you mad 😂 when will you be testing?

Hi all, I'm now 8 DPO & desperately holding out until Saturday to test - I'm TTC for my first, I am trying to be really hopeful this month but also trying not to get my hopes up either! When we first TTC back in July, I said I wanted to fall pregnant by christmas so I'm starting to feel a bit anxious as I'm not convinced it will happen now Sad
However, I did have a private fertility scan on CD 12 this month and the lady told me I had nothing to worry about, everything looked good and my egg was about to pop so to go home and get down to business Wink
Wishing everyone the best of luck this month xxx

Sandiesands · 16/11/2020 14:17

@beanchopper17 i can definitely see a line !! 😆😆 its faint but i definitely see it xx 👏👏👏

@hopefully2021 that positive news given by the scan 🤞 definitely let us know what happens on saturday x not long now.

Im going to try and wait to 13dpo before testing
Last cycle i started spotting on 8dpo, so if i make it past that i might cave and test earlier lol x

Sallyjo27 · 16/11/2020 17:55

I held my wee after lunch and went to Asda after work to buy two different clearblue tests. They’re both positive! The cheapies are still negative though! I’m in shock

@Sallyjo27 CONGRATULATIONS 👏

Sallyjo27 · 16/11/2020 19:06

@Sandiesands thank you, unfortunately for me I know that a positive test doesn’t always end in a baby (3 miscarriages this year) just taking each day as I comes. Scared to plan ahead and get excited

Sending loads of baby dust to you all! Please keep updating xxx

beanchopper17 · 16/11/2020 20:48

@Sallyjo27 so happy for you and really hopes the little bean sticks!!! 🥰

Well this evening has been a disaster of emotions, I started a row with my husband when I was agreeing with what he was saying (never talk about finances when your on the edge!) it was a hugeeeee mess! Oops! Not even due on for about another week 😂

OP posts:
beanchopper17 · 17/11/2020 09:30

9dpo and a stark white negative!

How's everyone else getting on, what dpo are you, any symptoms, anyone been testing?
