Hi guys! I believe I ovulated today (CD14) after I got a static smiley on my OPK yesterday evening, this was after a flashy smiley in the morning! We DTD last night and now comes the start of the dreaded two week wait! Does any one fancy driving themselves crazy with symptom spotting and trying to to take a test too early with me? 🤣

Congratulations to all the BFPs!

Onwards to March for the rest of us!

Oh that's awful for you @AIC2015 :( what's made him change his mind? Things are weird for everyone at the moment, maybe he will feel differently when the world's settled down a bit.

Congratulations to all those with BFPs, wonderful news! I do love to see the test photos too so thank you for sharing those. And sorry to hear about the BFNs too, it's always a kick in the gut. But onwards to March!

AF is due Thursday for me and I've surprisingly managed not to test yet... I usually get spotting in the evening a day or two before AF arrives so I'm holding out to see if that turns up.

@AIC2015 I'm so sorry to hear your partner has changed his mind about a second child. Like others have mentioned, it could well be that the current crisis situation has taken its toll, and perhaps made him feel less secure about the world. Or if it's been nearly a year since your loss, perhaps the upcoming anniversary has affected him? I hope that you're both able to keep talking about it, and that as the days brighten and we all hopefully get vaccinated, that he will re-think.

I’ve started bleeding today... honestly can’t believe it after 4 positive tests over the weekend

PaperFleur · 22/02/2021 12:34

@TTCBaby1 I am so sorry to hear that, how horribly stressful - sending you a big hug. Is it more like spotting or proper bleeding? I hope you have someone with you for support right now.

BCM2021 · 22/02/2021 18:06

@TTCBaby1 oh no!!! Is just light or proper? Hope it’s ok!! Sending hugs!

LKB89 · 22/02/2021 19:00

@TTCBaby1 I am so sorry 😞 lots of love xx

TTCBaby1 · 22/02/2021 20:03

@PaperFleur@LKB89@BCM2021 thanks ladies... it’s very light, only when I wipe... TMI. I’m hoping I may still be in the game, will see what tomorrow brings xx

teateaandcoffee · 22/02/2021 21:12

@TTCBaby1 I have everything crossed for you. It is a waiting game, hope you're ok.

TTCBaby1 · 23/02/2021 06:44

@teateaandcoffee thank you... no bleeding over night was more like spotting 🙏🏻

ACMJ · 23/02/2021 06:48

Has anyone ever heard of a positive cheapie test and a negative frer?!? This are the results I got this morning both with the same fmu. A very clear bfp on the cheapie and a very negative frer?!?

TWW anybody?

I just went and launched in to a chat on a similar to thread thinking I was on this one lol.

What I wanted to ask was - I just had my Day 21 test results and got a 36 for progesterone which confirms ovulation, but I don't know if it's good, bad, average? Any info much appreciated.

I'm glad I've ovulated, but also makes me nervous because we've been trying for a year now.

BCM2021 · 23/02/2021 07:15

@ACMJ how confusing! Sorry no idea myself I’m only getting bfn! How many dpo are u? Do you have a third test ?

ACMJ · 23/02/2021 07:26

@BCM2021 I know so very odd! Especially when the frer is supposed to pick up less hcg? Maybe a dud cheapie test I’m 13dpo today and I am due tomorrow

Sa2010 · 23/02/2021 07:35

@ACMJ a postive at 13dpo is a good chance!!strange it hasn't come up on. a frer if i were you i would test again x

ACMJ · 23/02/2021 07:42

@Sa2010 I know so very strange!! I did the test a little under an hour ago and the frer line is now pink! I know you should never look at a test after 10 mins but this is very odd. 2 duds? 😂 I think a test again is needed x

Annamarie91 · 23/02/2021 07:49

@ACMJ my clear blue early response was lighter than my regular boots test! Hopefully just an off FRER for you! X

BCM2021 · 23/02/2021 08:05

@ACMJ good luck fingers crossed!!!

Deedlebum · 23/02/2021 09:11

Good morning ladies,

I'm probably a bit late to this thread, but you seem like a nice chatty bunch which is a welcome distraction during the torture that is the TWW.

I am currently TTC #1 as and this is technically only my third month of trying.
I had a chemical last month, which led to a very short 4 day AF (7-10 Feb) and then according to CB OPK I had my static smiley on 17 Feb which I'm then counting as OV on the 18 Feb so that would make me 5DPO. Also had the EWCM they speak about.

DTD on 14, 17 & 19 Feb so hoping I stand a chance... Just not sure on how the chemical has messed up my hormones.

I've had a very noticeable constant pulling sensation in my lower right abdomen area since OV and I had two days of VERY itchy boobs on 19 and 20 Feb.

I usually have zero AF/cycle symptoms (other than a gassy stomach after EWCM).

I'm not a very 'hormonal/symptomy' person so having almost Zero symptoms now is just killing me! Other than this clear as day dull right hand side sensation there is nothing.

I know it's still crazy early days, but I just find myself wishing the days away. LIKE WHY CANT TIME MOVE FASTER!

NEVER thought I would be one of these people, but here I am! Grin

I have 2 FRER in my cupboard that I am going to do everything in my power to only use of AF is late (managed to do this with y chemical last month, but then 4 days later the dreaded witch showed!).

Sending love and luck to you all.

A glass of wine would be SO welcomed right now Grin

CD13 · 23/02/2021 10:01

Hi ladies, I did a one step hcg pregnancy test just now (wasn't fmu) I don't know why I did it but I did. I had some in my drawer from the hospital last month and it's a very strong bfn I'm suppose to be due on the 27th. My boobs are so sore but only when I touch them or run down the stairs lol. I haven't had my monthly period spot. I had these same symptoms last month before my early mc. I'm driving myself insane.

@Deedlebum I feel the same. I don't know how/if my hormones have been messed up.

TWW anybody?
BCM2021 · 23/02/2021 11:09

@Deedlebum hi! I never thought I would be one of those people either have been testing like a maniac! Sadly BFN. Next cycle I will not have tests in the house no control! Good luck to u!! X

ACMJ · 23/02/2021 17:04

@Annamarie91 ooh that’s good to know thank you! X

ACMJ · 23/02/2021 17:05

I just did a Sainsbury’s own and got this 🤦🏼‍♀️ Either I’m seeing things, they are all duds or the frer is broken 😂

TWW anybody?
TTCBaby1 · 23/02/2021 17:50

No further bleeding today... thinking it was implant bleed maybe 🙌🏼

WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot1 · 23/02/2021 20:02

@ACMJ I found FRER to be the last to turn positive for me! Maybe that's why I don't get the love for them 😂 ICs that are reliable (you've had a negative from the same pack previously), Tesco's own and clearblue are my go tos.

Fingers crossed you're like me!!

ACMJ · 24/02/2021 10:25

@WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot1
Oh that is interesting! I did another Sainsbury’s and frer this morning and they were both slightly darker so maybe!!
