Made the mistake of doing a cheapy test this morning, couldn't help myself! Of course it was BFN. However after feeling nauseous and having a headache I felt hopefull! Although I did bang my head yesterday so it is most likely that 😂.

Anyone else going crazy? I hate waiting to test 😭

Same here! Didn't track ov but cd23 with AF due on the 12th. Just got my first BFN. I convinced myself it would be positive and got way ahead of myself picturing telling OH 😭

hels301990 · 07/01/2021 12:00

@Ebhc I'm exactly the same CD and due on a Tuesday and BFN this morning (as expected) looking at when you can implant I doubt we are quite there yet. I'm going to try hard to hold out till Tuesday now (if I can!) sending luck!!

Ebhc · 07/01/2021 12:02

I'm going to try and wait as well. Good luck!

@lockdownbabyx

What's day does implantation usually occur? I see conflicting things online x
From what I've read anything from 6 at the earliest to 12. Most common seems to be 8/9 and then the HCG needs time to rise; but I am no doctor!

Hey guys ! I'm about 6dpo I think and was having minor cramps this morning and last night. I'm feeling so flat today (me and OH had a fall out last night and lockdown is getting to me) and burst into tears when I was driving home from the beach walk I went on to cheer myself up😂😂😂 6dpo is soooo early though :/ who knows. I'm due on the 17th x

MiaDee · 07/01/2021 22:26

Hi guys,
I'm 7dpo I've had a full feeling in my uterus the last 3 days. I tested on 5dpo and 7 dpo all bfn. I have 1 test left I'm trying to hold off testing again but will be tempted in 2 days time!

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 09:32

I keep trying to tell myself to hold off as long as possible! The last time I was pregnant I tested everyday up until my period, all BFN. 2 days after my period was due it was positives.

Having said that I've just taken another test at 8dpo so I need to listen to my own advice 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

MiaDee · 08/01/2021 10:08

Really? I always had it in my head that if you’re pregnant it will for sure come up positive before AF is due!
I will keep hold of this last test until then!
I’m 8dpo today I wonder how many people actually get their bfp this soon!!

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 13:54

Certainly not in my case, I've read other people have the same experience too. Implantation sometimes doesn't take place until 12dpo so being patient is the best bet. But it's so hard, I still can't help but test early, I have a load of online cheapies just so I don't end up spending loads haha. Fingers crossed for us! I'm 8dpo now so i know I'm going to try wait till the 14th and see if AF makes an appearance xx

OP posts:
Ebhc · 08/01/2021 13:59

I didn't test until a week late in my last pregnancy so it could have been negative before AF for all I know. Wish I had that patience again!!

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 14:11

Oh @Ebhc so do I! But I also find it comforting that so many of us are in the same boat x

Hi guys, hope you don’t mind me jumping on this.
Currently 7dpo ttc#1 so I don’t really know what to look out for. Has stitch like pain under my ribs and lower stomach feels like twitchy and small sharp pains every day since ovulation.
Needing a wee a lot more often than usual and very vivid (non baby) dreams. Anyone in the same boat? X

Ebhc · 08/01/2021 14:50

@complicated1 I woke up with a stitch pain this morning! Hasn't happened again since. And I had a very vivid dream.

complicated1 · 08/01/2021 14:53

@Ebhc I've had stitch like pain for a couple days and I never usually have vivid dreams. Feels different to af but too early to know! X

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 15:41

Is vivid dreams a symptom? I had never heard of that before! I went sleep walking the other night for first time in years and also been having very vivid dreams Shock

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 15:42

Also had stringy like CM the last couple of days, I'm 8dpo and I'm usually completely dried up now. I'm getting myself too excited 😂

OP posts:
Greenbks · 08/01/2021 15:47

Hi, I got my positive a few days ago at 8DPO, it was barely there but I couldn’t see it and then a much more noticeable line at 9DPO.

Leading up to it I had vivid dreams and period type cramps. I’m afraid no advice on the cm as I have that anyway before period. Although it’s day 11 today and I should have more cm but it’s all dried up, no doubt preparing that cervical plug.

Have you taken a pregnancy test yet?

MiaDee · 08/01/2021 15:50

Symptom spotting is so funny every time i feel something i'm like mmm this must be a symptom lol

i hope this is your month!! fx

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 15:51

Aw congrats! How exciting Smile
I've taken a couple of cheapy ones that I bought online, If I'm late I'll then buy a FR one. Don't want to spend loads and be disappointed

OP posts:
MiaDee · 08/01/2021 15:52

Congratulations ! i wasn't going to test but might have to now you have said that!!

lockdownbabyx · 08/01/2021 15:56

@Greenbks what test did you use, out of curiosity

OP posts:
Greenbks · 08/01/2021 16:01

I used a FR so that’s why I got a vvv faint line at 8DPO and had to start a thread asking others if they could see it too. Lol

cheapie didn’t show up anything until 10dpo for me. I understand about not spending loads on I’m testing tho.

complicated1 · 08/01/2021 16:13

I don't want to start getting my hopes up to early incase it's bfn, had 3 v fault bfp last months a few days later af arrived so was disappointed. But fingers crossed for you all! X

MiaDee · 10/01/2021 09:42

I realised that all 3 tests I took expired back in May 2020!

Has anybody else tested recently?
I have no real symptoms!

I’m for sure going to wait now to see if AF shows up before going to buy more tests!

How is everyone feeling I’m 10dpo
