@JemRose I'm 6 days DPO... when are you thinking of testing?? This is going to sound weird but i have really sore boobs? 🤷🏽‍♀️ I'm not linking it to anything don't want to get my hopes up. Just trying so hard to fight the urge to test! Have you felt any changes in yourself at all?

JemRose · 21/06/2021 17:36

@skaterchic I'm going to try not to test tomorrow butight on Weds. I got a faint positive with my last pregnancy (but later ended in miscarriage) at 10dpo and I'm too impatient to wait!

JemRose · 21/06/2021 17:37

Nai86 tbh I havnt had any symptoms so I'm not feeling that hopefully... But I've heard it can take a while to actually notice changes. That's really positive that you are noticing symptoms!!

Willow1982 · 21/06/2021 17:57

Congratulations @KM11 lovely to see xx🎉
@Sam8582 I’m feeling totally normal, zero symptoms, I’m on holiday in Cornwall at the mo, so a really good distraction!! Thinking I’m 4dpo today, felt crampy this morning but think that’s from all the walking we are doing!!xx😂
@Twochews78 apologies if you have already posted, how are you getting on, did you get AF yet or are you still in with a chance?xx

Capricorn8990 · 21/06/2021 18:10

@Willow1982 I'm 4dpo today and I felt some cramping earlier! Xx

Fiep · 21/06/2021 18:18

Lovely to read about some BFPs. I’m using the cb digital opk and I’ve just got the Premom opk strips too. The cb has shown a flashing face for the last three days but the premom strips are very much still low. Also no sign of EWCM. Any veteran ovulation trackers want to interpret this for me? I’m puzzled and very new to all this!

Twochews78 · 21/06/2021 18:21

@Willow1982 I was thinking about you today, wondering if you’re enjoying your holiday and having a lovely relaxing time? I’d love to go to Cornwall. Cramps are a good sign!

I’m still in, hanging by a thread though. I’ve got lots of cramps today and but af still hasn’t arrived. I’m on day 28, my app even give up and said my data was all over the place 🤣 I didn’t test today but did yesterday. I’ve no tests left and also have two children who are both isolating due to being in contact with two separate people who have Covid. You couldn’t write it! If af doesn’t arrive I will go and get some tests tomorrow, but I fear I’m out! xx

Willow1982 · 21/06/2021 18:38

@Capricorn8990 that’s interesting cramps on the same day, hopefully a good sign!!xx
@Twochews78 oh that’s good though that AF hasn’t showed up yet, how many dpo are you now? Fingers and toes crossed for you, and sounds like you have a full house! Cornwalls lovely, and the weather is holding out for us!! I know I’m going to be bad with trying not to test next week, my app says I’m cycle day 22 today, so AF may come around the beginning of next week for me!!xx

Twochews78 · 21/06/2021 18:52

@Willow1982 always good to have the weather!! I think I might be 17 dpo and one of my apps says 15dpo. More cramps now and very hormonal, be surprised if it doesn’t arrive tonight. It’s so hard not to test! I wasn’t going to but it’s now ended up that I’ve tested a fair bit, think because my app was telling me I was due, plus my periods have been around 25 days long. Who knows! Well, I’m hoping it’s a positive month for us, it’s great you can relax for a wee bit before next week. xx

MrsB902 · 21/06/2021 19:09

Is this extremely wishful thinking or am I seeing a very faint line? I know there is a horizontal one where the dye has ran but unsure whether there is a vertical one too? My period isn’t due for another 2-3 days. We’ve been trying for a year now with no success so not sure whether I’m just getting my hopes up, feel free to tell me if you all think I am though!

June 2021 TTC BUS ;-)
Twochews78 · 21/06/2021 19:12

@MrsB902 that looks like a line to me! xx

Capricorn8990 · 21/06/2021 19:13

@MrsB902 I can see two lines too. Can you get a FRER? Xx

MrsB902 · 21/06/2021 19:34

Ohh I bloody hope so ladies, we had a chemical pregnancy in December so promised myself I wasn’t going to do any more early tests and was just going to wait until I missed AF but just can’t help myself. @Capricorn8990 what is a FRER? Sorry I’m not really down with the lingo haha. Wishing all of you ladies lots of luck this month xxx

Capricorn8990 · 21/06/2021 19:49

@MrsB902 it's a first response early response and they are meant to be the most sensitive tests xx

MrsB902 · 21/06/2021 20:05

@Capricorn8990 ah thank you, I’ll pick one up tomorrow and try that too xx

Capricorn8990 · 21/06/2021 20:13

@MrsB902 let us know how you get on xx

WantStickyBean · 21/06/2021 20:21

@Fiep I'm definitely not an expert. But think the flashing smiley is your oestrogen surge, the LH surge is after and it's that which gives the static smiley. Other strips only look for LH so it's not surprising they're still negative. LH surge can be very short which is why it can be good to test more than once a day.

No idea about the EWCM though - only that I sometimes only see it after ovulation.

Fiep · 21/06/2021 20:31

Thank you @WantStickyBean that makes sense. There is a lot to learn isn’t there. Cycle 4 for me, I conceived DD pretty much straight away (but was younger) so it’s all new to me.

Lollipop25 · 21/06/2021 21:00

Congrats @KM11 fab line👏👏, & best of luck @MrsB902 I hope the FRER confirms a BFP for you.

@LeeTTCRainbow that sounds so difficult 😞 just two weeks after ur d&c. Very insensitive if she knew. My SIL announced in May she was expecting (I had mc in feb) in fairness she didn't and still doesn't know about mc but I was so thankful my husband told me because I was devastated. Just a bit of positivity for you, I'm 8 weeks + 3 days pregnant now myself so hopefully you'll get your bfp soon too💓💫

Missy95 · 21/06/2021 21:13

Congratulations all those with BFPs :) lovely news!

Im coming up to the tww again. Time flies around to this part of the cycle and then these 2 weeks drag 😫

Every month I feel more excited as the 'chances' increase.. and every month this disappointment increases as it never happens 😢 on month 5 after a loss in January, so I know its not a very long time compared to many others. But as my due date (02.07.21) is approaching, I feel saddened more having not fallen pregnant again yet 😢

Trying to stay positive, so fingers crossed to us all and lots of baby dust 🥰 xxx

thebattleofschrutefarms · 21/06/2021 22:59

[quote LeeTTCRainbow]@thebattleofschrutefarms i know how you feel 2 weeks after my d&c in January my sister in-law told us she's pregnant, she's now 24 weeks with a little boy, it kills me every time i see her and she's family so not like can really escape and on top she doesn't even seem excited wasn't planned just happened and that makes it so much harder for us when that's all we want is a family.[/quote]
So sorry, that sounds awful to deal with 😢

I have my vaccine booked for next week but I've read a lot on this forum about it delaying periods, has anyone had any problems? We're skipping August, to avoid a May birthday, so I'm a bit nervous that it might mess with my cycle.

Lucachu · 22/06/2021 07:00

Thebattleofschrutefarms I had my first vaccine (AZ) during my period (which is normally very heavy) and it dried up. However my period was back to correct flow the next month. My friend had the Pfizer and it has stopped her period. I think it affects some of them slightly but just for a month or so but the sounds of things...

abbs1 · 22/06/2021 07:14

@thebattleofshrutefarms ive had both my vaccines due to being a carer. My cycle lengths changed and my bleeding has been a lot heavier and cramping for several days before my period started. Im hoping it will settle down soon.

JemRose · 22/06/2021 07:48

Caved this morning at 9dpo and tested... BFN. I know it's early but cant help feeling disappointed!

WantStickyBean · 22/06/2021 07:52

@thebattleofschrutefarms I had mine last week the day before AF was due, I had a normal period and now my body seems to be gearing up to ovulate again (albeit slightly earlier than normal).

I was v surprised to see a flashing smiley this morning at CD9. This is my second month of using the CB sticks, last month I had flashing on day 12 then static on day 13. Feels v early to be starting to BD every night, we're going to be exhausted if I don't ovulate til CD14.
