Hi, anyone else holding off for testing? Just wondering how early anyone has got a positive as there's so much conflicting info online.

My partner and I only managed to have sex once in my fertile window this month due to him contracting COVID!

I did 10 tests before my missed period last month, which came a day later than expected so I'm really going to try to wait until at least the day my period is due

9dpo here and no symptoms! I dont feel like this is the month. Trying not to test, I did a strip test the other day which was negative and actually reused it today just to get it out or my system Grin
Last month I tested way too much and thought I had all the symptoms..

Hi, I'm 6/7dpo today too. from what I've read online the very earliest you can implant is 6dpo and it will take 2 days after this to get enough of a build up of hcg for a BFP. It can take up to 12 days to implant though so you could get a BFP anywhere from 8dpo to 14dpo (average 12dpo I think)
I'm going to hold off for as long as I can and ignore any symptoms I think I'm getting as I've been at this for 2 years now and think up twinges and nausea in my mind every single time!

victoria5895 · 01/02/2021 14:33

I had horrific nausea and fatigue around 6dpo last month, which convinced me that I was pregnant. I was so shocked when my period came!
No symptoms at all this month, and I completely forgot about my cycle all together until this morning.

Are you both plotting or testing for ovulation? I've just been basing my ovulation date on my period app.

I don't temp but I use 2 apps and have the exact same CM pattern in the lead up to and during my fertile week (most months) and then AF comes 11 days later so I just go off that. I don't know the exact day I ovulate but close enough

crabette · 01/02/2021 14:41

I'm 10dpo 🙈 No symptoms. Not tested yet, don't want to drive myself crazy!

Amijustagrump · 01/02/2021 14:43

I kinda half heartily OPK but I ovulate very early (day 9 or 10) so usually miss it! Planning to check more into it if we are still TTC after our May wedding. I was so sure last month was our month! So much so DP booked over time to build up our savings some more.. tested so much though.

Oceanapple · 01/02/2021 15:34

I am 7dpo today too. 5 months ttc after a MMC. Well over 2 years ttc in total Sad

Despite the BFNs every single month, I have a monthly obsession with testing (always early, despite promising myself I will wait), I always check what my due date would be in the TWW and always secretly think 'this is my month!'

It is really getting to me now and I think we need to stop for a while. We needed IVF previously and our fertility tests show nothing has improved, so I feel we are wasting our time trying for a natural conception.

Sorry to be such a downer!

ploopypleepy · 01/02/2021 19:09

I'm 7dpp! First cycle TTC after a miscarriage. Absolutely zero symptoms though... we have been DTD every day or every other day. When will you test??

victoria5895 · 01/02/2021 19:46

@ploopypleepy I have no idea! I'm trying to hold off as long as I can. I'm going to wait until Wednesday if I can.

Hi guys, I’m 7DPO today as well. Been feeling extreme tiredness for past 4/5 days- can’t keep my eyes open and mild crampy feeling like AF today and yesterday. Boobs also hurting today and headache- anyone with similar symptoms?!
I’m 33 and been trying for 8 months - I have one blocked tube but apart from that ok- DH has slightly low sperm count.
How hard is ttc?! Anyone else fed up? Xx

Mouseyel · 01/02/2021 23:03

Sending good luck to everyone! FX for us all 💕✨🤞

Peachee · 01/02/2021 23:04

Hi!!
I tested this month at 9dpo and it was a clear negative.. have just done another at 12dpo and have two big pink white lines.. my cycle is very predictable.. I hope this gives you some hope !!

ploopypleepy · 02/02/2021 10:12

@Peachee omg congratulations how exciting!!!! I have zeerroooo symptoms so not expecting much this month

Peony2021 · 02/02/2021 18:00

Hey ladies! I'm 7DPO today. I thought each month I would get more sensible on the testing front (month 4 of "actively" TTC) but I'm getting worse 😂 took a first response this morning for absolutely no reason other than I had the urge lol. obviously it was negative!! However I did order 25 Wondfo on Amazon which are arriving tomorrow - hoping they will be cheap and cheerful and will keep my testing urges at bay without spending too much money!!

Good luck to everyone!! Hope to see some BFPs soon!! Xx

IndaFlowers · 02/02/2021 18:35

Hi ladies I am 7/8 dpo today. Wishing baby dust to all!!

We have been playing the see how it goes game for a few months but this cycle actively tried....boy oh boy did we try 🤣🤣 i have some cramping, feels like af but not due until 9/10th. Getting some discomfort in boobs, not even tenderness, just a weird discomfort and waves of feeling like my tummy is flip flopping. Hoping these are all good signs but trying not to get my hopes up. On my first (dd 12) I didn't even know I was pregnant until I missed af and then got 2 bfns before bfp.

This a whole other ball game!

victoria5895 · 03/02/2021 07:38

I gave in and tested this morning, it was negative 😞
I'm currently 9dpo. Hoping it's just still too early?
How are you all feeling? Anyone else caved yet?

OP posts:
ploopypleepy · 03/02/2021 08:58

@victoria5895 caved after I read your message Grin negative too... still early though and not actually sure when I ovulated !

Peony2021 · 03/02/2021 09:18

I caved also after I saw you ladies go 😂 I'm fairly certain it's a negative as I'm only 8DPO, but could swear I see some sort of line. Probably Evap as it's too light to even come out in a photo. Will try again tomorrow! No symptoms at all so probably unlikely 🤷🏽‍♀️ xx

ploopypleepy · 03/02/2021 10:28

@Peony2021 yea definitely test again in the morning!!! I'm exactly the same though... zero symptoms I don't think that necessarily means anything though! Xx

victoria5895 · 03/02/2021 10:39

@ploopypleepy @Peony2021 no symptoms here either but I suppose we'll all know soon enough. When are your periods due?

OP posts:
Peony2021 · 03/02/2021 10:48

@ploopypleepy @victoria5895 AF due on the 10th, but to be honest I'm not the most regular 😂 totally agree zero symptoms doesn't necessarily mean anything. When are you planning on testing again? I'm trying to hold out for a couple of days! Attached a photo of my test this morning, the bottom one being the most recent. Hard to know what's going on! I had an early miscarriage at just over 5 weeks in November so not counting my chickens yet at all!!! Good luck and baby dust to us all xx

7dpo
kirinm · 03/02/2021 10:49

hello! 7dpo for me too today. Not feeling anything unusual. I get aches similar to AF around this time and also often feel quite nauseous. Not holding out much hope.

I don't have any tests so probably won't test early. I think I'll see how I feel at the weekend.

ploopypleepy · 03/02/2021 10:54

@victoria5895 Period due in 6/7 days! We will see then. @Peony2021 omg I can deffo see a line on the bottom one !!!!! Do one first thing tomorrow I think it will be more clear

Peony2021 · 03/02/2021 10:56

@ploopypleepy aw thank you I really hope it sticks this time 😬 6/7 days keeping my fingers crossed for you!!! Xx

victoria5895 · 03/02/2021 11:00

@Peony2021 I can definitely see a line in the bottom one!! 🥳
