Hi all,
Going to buy one more test for tomo (I'll be 13dpo) and wondering if I should definitely get a frer?I know they are apparently the most sensitive but I've also read about lots of women who got a positive sooner on a CB and not on their frer? Anyone heard anything about this? X

Hey @SunnydazeQ I'm sorry to hear that AF arrived 😔.
Thank you for sticking around to cheer us on. January will be your month!

@gracie2307 that must have been such a hard message to receive from your friend. You did so well to be nice! X

@MgW1 do you have a photo of your test? I'm so excited for you and for @Cienega!

Ladies I’m only 11dpo and was naughty and tested this morning. The test with the speckly background was taken after the other one. Are these faint lines, or evap lines? Is it even possible at this stage?

@Sunflowers81
Photo didnt pick up the line ! Think if its positive it will be clearer in 2 - 3 days. Working weds and thurs so fri is the day 🤞🏻🤞🏻 good luck girls ... we got this 👍🏻
Yours looks early faint positive to me , mine was a bit lighter but might have ovulated a day or 2 later than i thought. Iv worked mine out on ovulation pain which I have now read occurs 24-48 hrs before actual O so might only be 10dpo xx

Thank you @MgW1, you are very strong, not testing. I will wait until Thursday to test again.
I'm excited to see your result on Friday 🤞🏻 xx

@Sunflowers81
Had a faint positive before and AF pitched up so not getting hopes up but line has to start somewhere 🤞🏻xx

@Sunflowers81thank you! Fingers crossed!
I'm not very experienced in the ol' line reading but that looks like a decent faint positive to me, and on both tests!? Very promising!! Keep us updated!x

You both have me wanting to test today now even though I've missed my fmu, might try a cheapie tonight just to take the edge off! 😂

I'm wondering if anyone has any advice about temping. My BBTs have been approx 37.28 degrees. I presume I ovulated yesterday - when I woke up I had a small dip to 37.11. Today I woke up and it was 37.35. It's a very small rise. Do you think this would still be considered a post ovulation rise or is it too similar to my pre ovulation temps?

@ACNass I'm really sorry, I don't temp, but I'm sure someone here can help!

@Cienega 😁😁 sorry for being a naughty influence! Xx

@Cienega
Dont do it! 🙈
When is your AF due? Weds? Do it weds!!! X

@Sunflowers81
The easy@home tests are super sensitive.
How are you feeling ? Any symptoms? X

@Cienega @MgW1 is right!
Wait until Wednesday, or at least tomorrow morning for fmu. Xx
@MgW1 ahhh that's interesting to know, thank you! No, just huge and super painful boobs! When I roll over in my sleep, if I roll on to my back the pain of them moving wakes me up! And when I was working out earlier I had a bit of a stretching sensation in my uterus. My boobs always get sore before af anyway!
How about you? Xx

Thank you @Sunflowers81 I can't even believe that I didn't reach for the wine 😲 Who am I lol

That line looks absolutely positive for those sticks. Are you planning on testing with a FRER or CB? Sending positivity your way for a blaring positive 🎉🎉🎉🎉 xx

@MgW1 and @Cienega here's to those positives when you test 🤞

Thanks for tips @SunnydazeQ will deffo look into that as I am very partial to a glass of fizz (or 3....!) Sorry that AF arrived- I will deffo be keeping fingers crossed for you that the New Year will be bringing new BFPs!

Big congratulations @Sunflowers81 that looks like a decent positive to me! I'm sure it'll get darker as the days go on- how exciting!

Good luck @MgW1 and @Cienega for when you test- hoping to hear of more BFPs in the next few days!

I am on CD 4 and noticed today that my boobs are sore and heavy and was also feeling v nauseous this afternoon.... I have no idea what is going on and am wondering if I'm just being super sensitive to my body etc atm because of the whole TTC thing, but I have never noticed sore boobs during/after AF... before AF definitely. Am worried it means something could be off with my hormone levels or something...
Anyone else ever have sore/achey/heavy feeling boobs during/towards end of AF?

@Sunflowers81 that def looks like a line to me! 🤗 I got first bfp at 10dpo and by 12dpo it was a bold line on a normal test. Keeping fingers crossed for you! 🤞🤞🤞

Fingers crossed for you @Sunflowers81!

CD17 today, lines getting darker on the opks but temp seems to have dropped for the last 3 days without any rise. Last month I think I ovulated CD19 so maybe that’s where it’s headed again. I haven’t noticed any EWCM though. So far managed to stick to SMEP - if my cycle is the same length as last month, the 2ww will end Xmas eve 😬 x

@ACNass sorry I am temping myself but it's my first time and I started it after ovulation so I'm no good on the topic x

@MgW1 and @Sunflowers81you are both right and I managed to hold off, although I'm not feeling very hopeful at the moment, my discharge had a light pink hue in it this eve which makes me think the witch is playing peekaboo with me 🙄
It never arrives in that way but the last two cycles my body is doing all sorts of new things and I'm not sure what else it could be so who knows. I may not need to test again 😔

@Bluepolkadots42 and @SunnydazeQ thank you x

@ACNass it's tricky to say with bbt as I don't find it that clear, it's more a general pattern. Mine makes a little wiggly line and I don't always agree with when the app thinks I've ovulated! I'll post a pic of my chart below so you can see what I mean. My dips are always obvious, but my rise tends to be a bit more of a gradual step up rather than sharp rise. I read this is normal too. It's all about charting long enough so you know your normal x

@ACNass been temping for 7 months now and I'd say that's not enough of a rise. Really has to be above your "coverline" of temperatures during the follicular phase.

Meanwhile, I'm over here waiting to ovulate too. Should have happened today but no positive OPK yet even. Getting antsy.

@Highfalutinlootin @BubsNumber2inTheMaking this morning when I woke up my temp was 97.03. So it's all over the map lol I trust that I've ovulated though because my OPK was positive and looked like it does every month. So I'm not sure if I'm trusting my thermometer right now. It's a bit strange

@SunnydazeQ Thank you so much! :-D
I think I will stick with the easy@home ones until the weekend, as then af should be 2 days late.

Thank you @Bluepolkadots42! How are you feeling today?

Yayyyy! Thank you @BubsNumber2inTheMaking! It's really reassuring to hear that! How are you feeling now?

Thank you @SRyellow! hoping for a wonderful BFP for you for Christmas.

@Cienega ahhh well done on holding off. Fingers crossed for implantation, not af for you.
