Hi ladies! Trying for 2nd baby this month. I am 12 months after c-section so little bit scared, also can't do BBT as I don't have a consistent waking time and a very interrupted sleep due to breastfeeding. Relying this time on ovulation tests 🙏🙏 should be ovulating by end of this week 😳

Hey ladies. Just wanted opinions on this test. It's darker in person and has a pink colour to it.
Not entirely sure when AF is due, I'd say today if I was going off my last cycle but so far nothing 🤞🏻 (I've been having quite short, irregular cycles)
I took this test about 4:45 when I came in from work, urine was super diluted (drank a couple of glasses of squash before I left work at 4pm).. but I just had to test as it's been on my mind all day! I have another FRER which I'll do tomorrow morning with FMU and I've just ordered some more to come tomorrow. Not entirely sure on DPO either as I didn't track this month.
Last AF was 10th April. Xx

@Hi83 I will do! 🤞🏻 I've only ever had stark white tests so far in trying for baby number 2 so this is definitely more than I've seen in the last few months. No AF symptoms at the moment.

@AlmostLondoner Thats good to know!! Thanks, I will test again in the morning with FMU

@Confused678866 looks positive to me!! How exciting😃

I stupidly caved bought an FRER and I couldn’t resist - I’m only 8dpo and of course BFN. I’m still feeling so hopeful for this cycle, AF due Sunday/Monday. I have another FRER but deffo not using it till the weekend🤣 I just can’t help myself testing early haha xx

@Fiep Thank you 🤞🏻 will definitely update you all tomorrow morning. In my last pregnancy, I didn't test until much much later and got a 3+ on a CB digital as I was about 6/7 weeks 🙈
So all of this is quite new to me!

@Court2611 Oh fingers crossed for you! 8DPO is early so definitely in with a chance 🤞🏻🤞🏻 have you been having any symptoms?
I don't really know how many DPO I am as I didn't track ovulation this month.

@carlsi6 they for sure don't. I've talked a bit about it with the dude. But I haven't been telling him when my "predicted" fertile window is. No point in puttin pressure on him. He knows I don't think ice ovulated and he knows that I think I've had.some ovulation cysts as I've been in pain but other than that it's not a big convo topic 😂

Feel like I’m wishing the month away waiting for my fertile window and ovulation. For me it’s the hardest part of the month -

During my period I’m optimistic for a fresh cycle
During the fertile window im positive because it’s my chance to try and conceive
2WW is hard but easier because I’m still hopeful

This wait is just the worst bit for me.

Off topic but just wondering if people come on their periods late in the day eg right before bed (10.30/11pm) would you class it as that day or the next day? Sometimes I’d be asleep by that time so wouldn’t have realised until the next morning but this month I was up later so noticed. I know 1 day doesn’t make a bit difference but I want to try and track my cycles as accurately as possible

@Lollipop25 Thank you!! I'm so anxious but what will be will be.. I'm feeling like it's a positive but trying to remain grounded at the same time. I will take a picture tomorrow morning and update you all xx
