Anyone want to join the crazy poas club? 8dpo today

[LilyCat43]

I'm 8dpo and I have zero self control. Don't know why I do this to myself? 🙈

@Lilycat43 I’m sorry to hear your having spotting. It’s very common in pregnancy so please try and relax. You could give your GP a call and ask them to do a HcG blood test that might put your mind at rest xxx

Thanks @sallyjo27 my gp was a bit of an arse if I'm honest lol I phoned up last month after my 3rd chemical and he basically said they won't do any tests on me, why was I even testing (couldn't really say cos I'm a bit mad like that 😂) just suggested my husband went for tests but then gave him a load of rubbish info about it 🤦🏼‍♀️
I had implantation bleeding/spotting with DD so it could just be that again. I'm crossing everything but don't want to get myself too invested in this one just yet..... Even tho I've already been looking up due dates 🙈🙈🙈

Thankyou, I don't think I'm going to believe it until I miss my period!

@Ginmonkey84

Had really bad backache and some cramping this afternoon and that’s completely not my normal AF signs. Took a FRER..... can anyone see the faint line?

I can see a vv faint line x

Hey Ladies, please can I join? I am 7DPO, did a test yesterday which was obviously a BFN - don't really know what I was thinking!

I have had pains in my lower left side and back for a few days, creamy CM & feel absolutely horrific, nauseous, bloated and my body is just heavy; I don't want to read to much into it and get my hopes up!

Have any of you had many symptoms? X

@LilyCat43 I’m so sorry for GP sounds like a test to put it bluntly!!
There is a blood test you can buy to check on Medichecks. It’s a finger prick test. I think I’ll be doing it this time. After 4 previous miscarriages I’m so nervous. Have you ever had your progesterone tested? Also if you ring your local early pregnancy unit they should scan you at 6 weeks as you’ve had 3 previous losses xxx

8dpo today. Took a FRER like the maniac I am. BFN.

However I've felt sick ALL DAY and my resting heart rate is increasing daily - see pic!! I'm so hopeful.

We weren't trying for a baby so soon we were hoping to wait 6 months or so but I have to say I've really got my hopes up.

I'm nervous too. I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. I haven't heard about these tests what are they for? I can think of the words the doctor used to say it but basically the jist I got was that my losses were too early to count 🤦🏼‍♀️ so I didn't think they'd be taken into account for anything. I'll phone them and ask tho if we get that far! Xx

@Jackitty I'm only 5dpo but my resting heart rate has gone up the last few days! I know it could go up and come down when AF starts but I can't help keeping an eye on it.

@LilyCat43 there’s hundreds of different ones on there but there’s a test for hcg levels and a test for progesterone as well. I really hope this is a sticky baby for you. I think it’s awful to be told that! It doesn’t matter how many weeks you were it’s still a loss xxx

@Jackitty This website gives you percentages for testing on different days -

Not that it stopped me testing from 8dpo

10dpo maybe 9 depending on what day I ovulated

Is it just me or can I see a very very faint line? (It might just be my eyes playing tricks) I’m 11 DPO today, I’v just been using cheapies but going to use first response later and so on x

Can I have opinions on these please? :)

Tested at midnight last night.

Not sure how many DPO as I have irregular cycles due to Pcos xx

I see a faint line on both! Keep us updated!

@Kimxo I only see part of a line so not sure.
@Bonny11 I see it!
@Jackitty is your heart rate still rising? Mine has come right back down today. Cramping as well so I feel like my period could be on the way but I'm only 6dpo and CD23.

@noname55 I wouldn't go off cramping at this point, with my last pregnancy (4 years ago) I had cramping for two weeks then found out I was pregnant, must have really implanted herself in there
Yes my heart rate still seems to be rising, 71 today up from my usual 62-63!

Thank goodness it’s not just my eyes then Does anyone think these cheap strip tests are unreliable compared to first response etc? X

@Bonny11

Completely agree - I'm 11dpo today - got a glaring white BFN with an Amazon cheapie - but a visible line on a FRER - both the same FMU!

I can't believe the ICs are supposed to be so sensitive?!

I find them a bit hit and miss. I've had faint lines on them in the past but confirmed negative with a frer.
Thanks @Jackitty mine is back up again, I need to stop watching it can't think of anything else.

@IWouldBeSuperb That’s a good line, is that from today? Congrats if so ❤️ Yeah I was thinking that, I’v got some first response tests coming so il do one tomorrow morning at 12 DPO and see what that says x

I also had pink discharge today when I wiped, only once though. Had a headache on and off all day, left ovary achy a little. Never get like this before AF so who knows! Only time will tell

9dpo today and BFN on cheapie and FRER period due in 5 days so I'm not holding out hope now. So weird as I've had cramps, nausea, sleeping funny and all sorts of weird symptoms.

Going to try and leave it til the end of the week now and just see if AF arrives. Need to get out of this testing early malarkey as it just gets upsetting doesn't it

@Jackitty Yeah you’ve still got plenty time left, It gets so tedious doesn’t it! So easy to get addicted to testing though. Wishing you luck for when you next test!

Today's sticks... Early evening urine. I think the top one is a bit darker than yesterday. Fingers crossed.

Congrats to everyone else with lines today 😍 sending everyone lots of baby dust xx
