Hi! I have been TTC this month. I got a flashing smiley face on the clearblue OPKS this morning so all is looking good! I would love to talk to anyone else who is also TTC this month... I am currently driving my husband mad as it's all I can talk about. 😊

[quote hoola23]@Itsjustme20 oh I'm so sorry- that is so cruel! Try and do some self care today and start afresh tomo x[/quote]
It is rubbish 😔 Although going by EWCM I ovulated last week when on holiday (didn't have OPKs) so it could be a very early positive.

Got some FRER coming tomorrow morning so I'll wait a couple of days and test again x

hoola23 · 09/08/2021 15:41

@Itsjustme20 that would make sense. I wouldn't write it off just yet. If you can try and wait two days and test again. You really can't say no until AF arrives anyway. Keeping everything crossed for you hun! X

@MrsRosaline @newtolineofduty let's all agree not to test until at least Monday 16th August.

I see what you mean about convincing yourself it's just too early. That's my worry that and people mentioning CP - I want to minimise the strain on my MH by waiting. Understand everyone is different though as I can see the benefits to seemingly taking back control by testing every day. TTC is a headf*ck!

Mum & dad keep piling in about wanting a GC. It's not easy

I've got some FRER coming tomorrow and I'm going to try and hold off until Weds to test.

Telling DH in about 20 mins when he comes in that hopefully we're pregnant 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Itsjustme20 your IC was quite a weak line so it may be that the CB just hasn't picked it up. Keep us updated! X

newtolineofduty · 09/08/2021 16:08

Fingers crossed for you @Itsjustme20!

Happy to agree a pact not to test until eve of 16th or even 17th @wannabeamummysobad and @MrsRosaline and the rule is we HAVE to confess if we give in beforehand! X

wannabeamummysobad · 09/08/2021 16:11

@newtolineofduty @MrsRosaline I'm in

I've just taken another test (different brand) 😬

newtolineofduty · 09/08/2021 19:22

Oooh that looks very promising @Itsjustme20! It looks pink so deffo not evaporation line!! I wonder if you're not as late as you initially thought? I'd try again in the morning then maybe a digital at the weekend! X

I've been quite irregular recently (between 28-38 day cycles) and I'm currently on CD40. I think maybe I ovulated last week 🤷🏽‍♀️

My FRER come tomorrow morning so I'll hold my wee until they come 😂😂😂

That looks good @Itsjustme20. I echo what @newtolineofduty - take one with FMU and see.

I've had a really long day taking DD out for the day. I had to lift her at one point, and I felt something pull in my side low down. Now I'm wondering if I should be excited I felt something or worried... maybe i've ripped out something that was implanting 😂

What pregnancy tests does everyone use? I've bought some clear blue six days early ones after reviews of frers (and a friend) saying they have terrible 'indent lines', but then loads of the recent clear blue reviews say people have had false positives! I want to have confidence in whichever test I choose to take and at this rate I don't trust any! X

hoola23 · 09/08/2021 20:05

@Itsjustme20 defo another positive! I'd be quietly confident if I were you! Amazing news!! X

LittleDoveLove · 09/08/2021 20:23

@newtolineofduty I used FRER and Clearblue all types of them cross lines one line,digital all were positive. I would use either really just do 2!
@Itsjustme20 that's really promising on your latest test! X

newtolineofduty · 09/08/2021 20:28

Thanks @LittleDoveLove x I used frers last cycle so might get some more so I can use two different ones! Are you past ovulation now!? X

@newtolineofduty I used the clearblue early ones with DD, and they were always negative right up until my period was due 😂

Thank you! I'm quite confident now with 2 clear positives 🥰 I'm not sure if I'm actually late now or what. Bloody irregular cycles 😂😂

Anyone else seen this on FF? Was doing some scrolling this morning and thought it was interesting.

@Itsjustme20 how did you get on this morning?

My FRER didn't arrive this morning. They're due to come between 1-2pm.

I did have an IC BFN this morning but from what I've read online that can be common to have BFP in afternoon and BFN in morning if it's early. X

QueenLagertha · 10/08/2021 11:36

That's certainly interesting @MrsRosaline. We def should wait before testing then.

Fingers and toes crossed for you @Itsjustme20. I don't know how you're waiting. You must have excellent self control. I'd be away running to the shops to buy one 😂

4dpo for me today. Fertility friend has finally set ovulation as CD14. I didn't have much of a BBT rise until this morning really. But it must be enough to show that I ovulated. And fits with OPK and my fertile signs.

Still calm so far this month. Been keeping busy and starting back exercising last night after taking a whole month off. I thought maybe too much exercising might've been affecting my chances 🙄 clearly not. So I've decided to just get on with my life as normal. Had drinks Saturday and Sunday too. Definitely helping me not to obsess.

I've been to the shops and it was a BFN on a cheap test 😔😭

Going to use the FRER when it arrives later. I don't know what to think anymore. 3 positives and 1 BFN 😭

QueenLagertha · 10/08/2021 11:42

@Itsjustme20 it may still be quite early 🤞🏼

I hope so🤞🏼😩 I've got heavy feeling boobs, a pulling sensation like cramps and a big headache this morning.

Well done for being so calm this month!! It's so bloody hard staying calm during the TWW isn't it 😂
