Thanks @NatJ24 I'm trying to remember when I got excited with my son. I think I was a bit excited after the early scan or just relieved. I think I relaxed a bit more after the 12 week scan. But I definitely had wobbles occasionally and had to go in for monitoring.

@Pancakes7 they are really clear lines. You're preggo lady! Go get another digital. The word "pregnant" makes it nice and clear 😁😁 Also I often get stronger likes with afternoon pee which makes no sense.

Aww thank you @HereWeGoooo ! I think I'm in Protection mode. Like don't get excited just incase... but I do want to just try and enjoy it. I guess being anxious won't change anything. What will be, will be. I may as well enjoy being pregnant while I am. Eeeek!!! I really hope the line is darker tomorrow!! I've already worked out the due date 🙈 25/10/21 🤞🏻🌈

@HereWeGoooo I have a how many weeks clear blue but it's not an early test. So I'm going to do the strips for now till they're darker. I also have 1 more clear blue ultra early test which I'll use Friday. Then maybe Saturday I'll do the how many weeks one

@Pancakes7 that's great for 9dpo! Could you have ovulated earlier?

My skin is breaking out fgs

@dippyegg32 It's possible. I forgot to take the test for the fertility monitor on Saturday 30th of Jan. So I assume my peak would've been then meaning I would've ovulated on the Monday but obviously I'm not hundred percent sure. Of course it would happen the one month I don't manage to record my peak. I just wish it was a darker line but I guess I'm still early.

@dippyegg32 is that a sign for you of AF coming?

@NatJ24 yes used my last one yesterday or day before (can't remember) and was still a flashing smiley 😂. I think we are both feeling like we will stop trying for this month now and hope we have done enough. My poor husband is shattered! It doesn't help that TTC coincided with his most stressful week at work ever, bless him. I had other signs such as twinges and Ewcm so hoping that we maybe caught it. Just going to chill until AF arrives I think! Fingers crossed for you that you caught it too! 🤞

@Pancakes7 no not really I'm usually pretty lucky with my skin. But I figured surgical management was only 7/12 so god knows what my new normal is.

@dippyegg32 Yes could be hormones from your body getting back to normal. Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

@ELMcg I had similar this month, I missed my peak but we've got a BFP so you may have done enough anyway 🤞🏻

@Pancakes7 aww that's good to hear you were in a similar boat and so pleased for you that you got your BFP!! 😍 I think I am just trying to remain calm about it. First time round we were discussing trying and little did I know I was already pregnant. I feel like that was so lucky and a complete fluke so trying to tell myself it could be a while this time round.

@ELMcg Yes this happened to me too. We weren't trying but didn't mind if we did get pregnant. We only dtd unprotected twice and I got pregnant! This time it's taken 6 months. This is the longest it's taken me. But definitely could be your month. This seems like a lucky month on the group 🤞🏻🌈

@ttcrainbowbaby1 Have you tested today?

[quote Pancakes7]@ttcrainbowbaby1 Have you tested today? [/quote]
@Pancakes7 yeah, another shadow of a line. Might be an evap, it's a little darker than 8dpo but I also don't wanna get my hopes up because if the line is real and it's still light I don't think it's a good sign. Just feeling really sad today to be honest. I wish it was easier to tell. Congrats on your bfp tho.

@ttcrainbowbaby1 I really hope it gets darker for you. Mine is still feint so I am worrying too. It's hard when you test this early isn't it.

Ok I've gone crazy and ordered another pack of Clear blue early tests from Amazon. I paid for a week off Amazon prime lol, it's only 99p. I'm definite a POS addict!

@Pancakes7

Your lines on both tests today are really clear - I wouldnt class them as faint. Mine from yesterday were way more and that was me 12DPO and digital test confirmed pregnant. So I think you could prob take a digital now and it would pick up you HCG. You must have ovulated earlier.

@Pancakes7

mine from yesterday were way more *faint

@HereWeGoooo Ok that's good to know. Well the tests should arrive tomorrow. So will do the digital Friday morning I think. But I'll do a strip tomorrow morning too. I think I'm just worrying as I've never had a feint line before. I probably should have just waited!

10DPO today and took another test.. it’s faint and bit thin but it was 3 mins after taking,
What does everyone think??

@Pancakes7 clearrrr positives!

@Strawberry08 it does look positive but yes also thin. Do you have any pink dye cheapie or FRER for tomorrow am?

@TheDaydreamBelievers yep got a FRER for tomorrow, fingers crossed!

@Strawberry08 I can see the line. Maybe wait a couple of days and take another test. Or test each morning.

Aww thank you @TheDaydreamBelievers ! I really hope I get a darker line tomorrow 🤞🏻
