Hey everyone so this is my third cycle ttc again, I'm so impatient and these cycles can be so lonely sometimes so wondered if any one wanted some company this TWW.

Just abit of back story. Im 22 from Kent. I have a 2yo girl and have had a few chemicals and miscarriages since having my little girl.
I'm also a poas addict so faint lines more then welcome here tooo!! X

@Poppet2021 hi poppet and welcome!

🤔 I think that 6po is very early to be having any significant pregnancy signs and symptoms..implantation usually only occurs from this time onwards..to about 10 dpo I think.. I did have pain in my legs too..much later than 6dpo though. In short I think it’s too early to comment..try and relax for another few days and let the body do its thing..fingers crossed for a BFP for you xx

Morning girls - update from me... well 2bfns this morning (although I could swear I could see a line when I got out the shower). Bleeding is heavy and constant so counting today as cd1 again think my af has started xxx sending lots of baby dust to you all! Who is still waiting on their bfp? @GlowUp any sign of a bfp for you

@Poppet2021

Hey ladies Please can I jump on this thread?...

I’m 6dpo today. Last night I had pains in my legs like I do when I get my period. When I ate my dinner I’m pretty much immediately threw up as felt so nauseous. But it might have cos I ate too quick! My boobs aren’t sore as such but more of a numb feeling. Also been needing to go to the loo (not for a wee) more often!! (Sorry for tmi!)

Right now my legs are hurting like I’ve got my period.

I have one kiddo. But can’t remember my symptoms when I had her.

Hmm not sure what to think!?!

Hey @Poppet2021 Still early but from 6dpo I started getting af cramps for a couple days and feeling sick 7dpo got my first faint line on 8dpo. I'd say it's possible! Fingers crossed !!!

@Jely123 @Rugratree
Yeah thought 6dpo is early too. I think you also start to imagine or look more into how you are feeling in the 2ww.
I will deffo try relax... as much as I can!

Have a lovely day ladies. And will update in a few days !

GlowUp · 17/05/2021 08:48

@Kinickynicky oh I'm really sorry to hear that. Hope you're ok. I've tested again this morning and got another bfn. I'm 12dpo and af is due in two days so I'm as sure as I can be that it's not my month as I'm sure I'd be getting lines by now if it was.

Hi @Rowboatsmummy have you tested again this morning?

Hi @Poppet2021 fx for a bfp in a few days for you.

@babyboybluex how are you doing?

babyboybluex · 17/05/2021 09:19

@Poppet2021 Hey Poppet, welcome Smile I had similar symptoms to you that early on and it made me test! When are you planning on testing?

@GlowUp You can still get that BFP lovely. I don't have any tests in the house but planning on holding out until Wednesday when AF is due! I think I'm out to be honest.

@Kinickynicky Hope you're feeling ok Flowers What are you thinking in terms of testing again?

Sending positive vibes to you all x

Bundaberg84 · 17/05/2021 09:23

@Kinickynicky I'm sorry to hear! Unfortunately it does sound a lot like a chemical pregnancy that has happened to you. The positive side, if there's any, is that many women will have their sticky bean in the cycles after a chemical. As they don't really know what exactly happens or why a chemical occurs, some theories are that your body will get ready for a pregnancy. It just wasn't ready yet.
@Poppet2021 6dpo is the earliest for an implantation to happen, and then it takes 48 hours until hcg hormones appear. But maybe your ovulation was earlier than you thought?
Fingers crossed to all of you / us!

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 09:37

@GlowUp not today. I figured if that was a faint line and not an evap I would maybe be better leaving it a few days? So hard though! I already have 2 DC and I found out quite late with both so I've not really had this before.
@Kinickynicky really sorry to hear that. Really hoping for a BFP for you this cycle xx

Kinickynicky · 17/05/2021 10:08

@Rowboatsmummy thanks hun. Chin up @GlowUp you’re not out till af comes x well after a tissue full of bright red blood this morning the pad has just collected a small amount of brown stuff. It feels like af but is early and doesn’t look like af. I’ve not had a miscarriage before - is this is what it’s supposed to he like? 😓 x

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 10:35

@Kinickynicky I have had both a chemical and a late stage mc. The chemical was after a faint line and digi test 1-2 weeks and when af did arrive it was horrendously heavy right from the beggining. With both of my successful pregnancies I had very noticeable IB. I of course do not want to five false hope or play on emotions more than Im sure you are already feeling but maybe see about a gp app for blood test?xx

Kinickynicky · 17/05/2021 10:46

@Rowboatsmummy I’m sorry for your losses sweetheart:( I’m not sure with any confidence I had a properly positive test so just going to see how this “period” develops over the next few days x

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 10:50

Just keep your chin up, if it is af hopefully this will be the month! Everything crossed for you. I'm now driving myself mad wondering when to test again x

GlowUp · 17/05/2021 11:02

Thanks @babyboybluex hope af doesn't arrive for you and you get a positive test in a couple of days.

@Rowboatsmummy yes, if it was a faint line then it should definitely be darker after waiting a couple of days. Fx for you! I have 2 DC already as well but I found out early with both of them so I'm the opposite to you really! Have to keep reminding myself that every pregnancy is different and I need to stop comparing to what I've had before.

@Kinickynicky oh how confusing for you 😔 Really hope things become clearer for you soon xx

babyboybluex · 17/05/2021 15:23

At 13DPO how strong would you expect a positive line to be? Hmm x

Kinickynicky · 17/05/2021 16:13

Have you taken another test @babyboybluex?

I was totally convinced this was my period this morning I mean we’re talking bright red blood and lots of it first thing. Not a bloody thing since. What’s wrong with me :/

babyboybluex · 17/05/2021 16:20

@Kinickynicky No way. I'm so sorry that you're experiencing this, you must be mega confused! Is it worth speaking to your GP at this stage? Definitely test again tomorrow with your first wee. Remind me, how many DPO are you?

I've taken another test this afternoon, left it in the bathroom drawer and my partner brought it through with wide eyes as he can see the line too BUT it's soooooo faint (squint eyes needed x100). I thought it would be pretty obvious at this stage but it often doesn't show strong until 15/16 DPO which would be on Wednesday/Thursday.

GlowUp · 17/05/2021 16:34

Oh god @Kinickynicky this sounds so stressful. Have you taken any more tests to see if there's anything showing? I wonder if it might be worth giving your GP a call too to see what they advise?

@babyboybluex let us know how the next test goes! I'm glad your dp can see the line too - I drive mine crazy asking him to check all my tests!

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 16:56

@GlowUp AF was a lot more regular when I had DD now almost 4 and DS almost 2. I have PCOS and have gained a lot of lockdown lbs Hmm
I think part of the testing now for me is that they have become less regular so I always have a suspicion. I do worry it is all in my head. OH is v happy with 2, but obviously not adverse to the idea enough to be more careful lol.
Honestly I think I would have tested again by now but Im flying solo today with the kiddos while he is at work so I cant really get out easily to grab a test lol
Think I will tomorrow. I do really think it is an evap line but I can just never be sure as Im not sure on where I am in cycle. Hope I get some answers soon!

@Kinickynicky I really feel for you, I would be baffled if that was me! I wouldn't give up hope yet, but def very strange! Let us know!

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 17:01

@babyboybluex if a man can see it, it's a great sign! My OH swore blind I was mental when I showed him a test with a slightly lighter line than control line!

Not sure if I have missed it but do you have a pic of the test?x

babyboybluex · 17/05/2021 17:22

@Rowboatsmummy I didn’t attach it but this is the one from today (get your glasses out) 😂

That’s true. My other half is the same when I normally show him tests!! They don’t know the struggle 👀 x

4dpo any one want to join??
Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 17:29

@babyboybluex I could def see something before I even noticed you had put the wee arrow! I do think I see a bit of pink but it is so hard to know. When did you first test? I saw above you are around 13dpo? You may have ovulated late though? I have never had a noticeably positive test before day af was due so it very well could be a BFP! FX!

Rugratree · 17/05/2021 17:30

@Kinickynicky so devastated for you..I hope your ok..I agree that GP app could provide some clarity on the situation. Thinking of you..I was so hopeful that everything was going to work out for you..but fingers crossed it will next month.

@babyboybluex I see the line! Mine looked like this at 13dpo! Congratulations!

GlowUp · 17/05/2021 18:00

Good luck for tomorrow @Rowboatsmummy! I've found it hard trying to test with two kids around as well as they always ask what I'm doing 🙈😂

@babyboybluex I see the line too! Exciting!

All this talk about 13dpo lines is giving me hope too as I'm only 12dpo today but presumed I was out this month. I'll try again in the morning and report back 😊

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 18:20

@GlowUp I know! I'm not able to pee alone in this house never mind a 5 minute wait in private HmmI will test in the morning. What is everyone's thoughts on FMU? Would I be best putting FMU in a cup and dip testing later? Just may have to nip out after nursery run to get one and not sure if it will make a difference doing later in day?

Anyone else testing again tomorrow?

Kinickynicky · 17/05/2021 18:52

I’m 12dpo today too, the bright red heavy bleeding has gone back r light pink spotting and brown fluffy stuff - this test (it took me a while to photo it as let’s just say I spent a good 5 minutes quinting) I just don’t know . Had awful af cramping today the kind you get with heavy blood but not the nlood/
