13DPO and no sign of AF (predicted to start today) took a test first thing this morning and got a faint 2nd line, did another one in case the first was just an indent/evap and had a faint line show up as well. So many mixed emotions and feelings. Is this an actual BFP? My temperature has been dropping every day for the past week, and was the lowest it’s been all cycle this morning. Not sure what that means?? Did a quick google search and it seems like the faint line + low temp means likely chemical pregnancy. So confused right now.

Im going to wait until tomorrow morning and do a digital test (and probs another frer) to see what they say.

That's a BFP @whatwonder. Massive congratulations!!!

Let us know how you get on @Mrsspoon3 sending you lots of love!!

Ah thanks so much @80sPadme and @KayL1988 😊 xx I’ve just got back and all went really well!!! 😁😁 There was a good heartbeat and it was measuring right for the dates I thought, and she said it ticked all the right boxes! I’m soooo happy!! I’ve been absolutely terrified and this is the first time I’ve been able to feel some excitement! 😊 Thanks so much everyone for your lovely messages!

@whatwonder They definitely look positive! 😊 Is your temperature still above cover line? I wouldn’t worry about that too much, it could just be because the weather has been a little cooler! And tests are often faint this early so try not to worry! Hopefully will be darker in a day or two! 🙂

@Mrsspoon3 so so happy to hear the scan went well! I'm sure it was such a relief to get that news and know that there is a good heartbeat! :)

I've not been using a thermometer to track BBT, I use the ava bracelet which measures wrist temperature (apparently it's more accurate but who knows). My temp this morning was a full degree lower than post ovulation temp. It's essentially done a sharp decline over the past 7 days. I'm so confused about what that means, so it's hard not to worry! We're going to visit my family tomorrow so will be out of the UK for 3 weeks, guess I'll see what happens. I've had some light cramping and my boobs have been sore on and off. No other symptoms but I think that's pretty normal this early on.

Thanks so much @whatwonder! 😊 Honestly feel so, so relieved!!
I know it’s so hard not to worry. I’m definitely not an expert on the temperatures, but hopefully it’s just a blip and your tests start to get darker! The symptoms sound promising. Hope you’re feeling ok and get good news when you test tomorrow xx

@whatwonder congrats!! That looks like a BFP fo me 👏❤️

@Mrsspoon3 I was thinking of you this morning! I’m so glad to hear everything was perfect 🥰 I’m glad you can feel the excitement now! Did you get a little picture to take away with you?

I wish mine was sooner now, I’m so impatient!!.. 12 days away, I can do it 🤞

Ah thank you @HRP1990! 😊
Yeah she gave me a few photos and sent me digital versions too 😊 You can’t see much as it’s so tiny, but you can definitely see something is there, and one of them shows the heartbeat graph thing (not sure what it’s called haha).
Ah I’m definitely impressed with your self control waiting until 8 weeks! Bet you’ll be glad you waited though as you’ll get a much clearer picture as they grow so fast in these weeks. Can’t wait to hear how yours goes!

@whatwonder - definitely looking like a line to me. Congratulations!

So glad it went well for you today @Mrsspoon3 x

Aw that makes me so happy to hear that! I bet it feels more real now? I know getting a “pregnant” and two lines on a pregnant test is real enough, but seeing it on a screen! I think I’ll tear up 😂😭

It’ll definitely be worth the wait for sure, my app said they start moving around at 8 weeks? That’ll be so surreal

To excited to tag you @Mrsspoon3 😂

Happy for everyone with BFPs but starting to feel a bit alone in here - who's still left ttc?

🧙 got me today which means I can at least drink while we're away next week. In other good news, I had longest LP yet at 13 days instead of 11 which I guess is good but still bang on 27 day cycle. I started EPO last month before ovulation, would that cause that perhaps? I really wish I could remember what my body used to do before starting the pill - but that was 19 years ago and I can barely remember what I did 19 days ago!!

@HRP1990 It definitely seems more real now. Still trying to get my head around it as been anxious and doubting things for weeks, but keep looking at the photo to remind me! 😊 Aww that’s so exciting you should be able to see yours move!! 😊

Thank you @Eli707! x I’m so sorry, I didn’t know whether to post on here as really don’t want to come across insensitive. I hope it hasn’t come across that way and really sorry if it has to anyone xx
Sorry to hear 🧙‍♀️ got you! I hope you’re able to have a lovely time away and then next month is your month! Got everything crossed for you!

@Mrsspoon3 Please don't think I found you insensitive at all - very happy for you and lovely to hear your news xx

@HRP1990 what app are you using?

Ah I’m glad @Eli707, I really wouldn’t want to upset you or anyone or come across as insensitive. Thank you!! xx

We could start a BFP thread as I worry about being insensitive too however I still love hearing about your journeys and what everyone is up to.

Aw I’d have to laminate the scan picture as I’d be carrying it around with me everywhere 😂 @Mrsspoon3

@Lalala1985 I have the Ovia and Pregnancy+ apps x

Hi ladies, I haven’t posted here for a couple of weeks, but little update from me.

All is going well and I had a private scan yesterday at 8 weeks and little bean is measuring exactly on track. Also saw and heard the heartbeat 💜. The sonographer said I was very bloated which obscures the scan a bit but we have 4 clear pictures ☺️ Bloating has definitely been my main symptom - I haven’t had much nausea except when it was really hot a few weeks ago (I’ve definitely got off lightly so far!).

Hope everyone is doing well!

Nice to hear from you @PurpleCat88! I’m glad your scan went well as expected and you’re measuring on track 🥰 I didn’t realise bloating could obscure actually! If that’s the case I’m screwed too haha.

I’ve actually booked mine at the same place as yours for a week or so time - thanks for the recommendation!

@Eli707 Still here with you 🙂 AF was 6 days ‘late’ with the longest cycle out of the 9 I have recorded. I expect I ovulated late, but so unusual. What cd are you atm?

So happy for everyone who has had their BFP - I can’t even imagine how you must feel for it to be real. Huge congratulations 🥳

Question ladies. I’m new to properly using OPKs. Cd7 now but have had 4 high days in a row, starting at CD4. Am sure I had a proper af, FRER negative on CD5. Any ideas?

@OoFaithoO I'm currently CD3, usually ovulate at CD16 but fingers crossed for CD14 again this cycle.

I'm probably not the best person to ask about OPKs, I use the CB as wasn't confident interpreting lines

So lovely to hear from our BFP ladies. I'm so happy for you @Mrsspoon3 as I know how worried you was!

Also congrats @whatwonder - how are you feeling?

@Eli707 I'm still here with you! Cycle 5 for me but this is going to be a very slim chance this month as won't be with DH for much of the FW. Im not even doing OPKs this month, just temping.

There's still a few of us left. I know we still have Aries491 (whose having a month off) and SkeletonSkins

For the first time this month I've started to have a mini panic... wondering why it hasn't happened yet. But trying to maintain a level head and remember that even perfectly healthy couples can take up to a year x

Also sorry for the TMI question but I'm also wondering if perhaps me and DH are not DTD enough during the FW!

We aim for every other day so 3 days out of the 6.

BFP ladies, how many days were you DTD when u got your BFP?
