Hi everyone, anyone twiddling their thumbs waiting until they can test? I’m due on around the 28th July, anyone in the same boat? I’m around 6 dpo (usually when I start getting the itch) but I have a short luteal phase.

Me! AF due 27th ish. Might test on Monday morning but definitely no sooner. So hard waiting! Is this your first?

Lebe14 · 22/07/2021 20:31

I'm due around 30th - only 4dpo today! I'm going to leave it right until the day before or even try to hold out completely. I always feel quite chilled at this stage then around 8dpo my calmness goes out the window 😂 cycle 11 for me x

Wanderdream · 23/07/2021 08:30

@MrsF111 I’m really gunna try to hold out until in due but we’ll see! No this is my second, how about you?

@Lebe14 haha I know, it all starts out chill and then every day is a battle of not testing! Im on cycle 6 so far

@Wanderdream first! Although I’ve been trying 15 months and have had 2 mc in that time. Praying this is my rainbow baby🤞

@Lebe14 I’m starting to get impatient to test now 🤣

Exquis · 23/07/2021 09:54

Hi all,

AF due on the 31st, I'm currently 6-8 DPO. I'll probably test around the 28th. x

Lebe14 · 23/07/2021 15:54

@Wanderdream and @MrsF111 I totally agree! We just need to keep ourselves busy over the next week and try to not think about it 😂

I had my 2nd Pfizer jab yesterday so part of me is actually hoping I don't get a BFP as otherwise I'll panic as to whether something might go wrong because of it.... But since I'm on cycle 11 with absolutely no BFPs I wasn't going to put the jab off!

Now 5 DPO, so very nearly half way through! X

JScarlett · 23/07/2021 15:59

Hi all!

My periods are irregular so not sure when AF is due, but I think I might be 9dpo now (if I am ovulating but thats a different story!!) so thinking I will need to test at the end of July.

Really tempted to test now but don't think I could handle the disappointment of a BFN. I'd like to feel like there is still hope! xx

blossom325 · 23/07/2021 16:49

I’m due tomorrow (or per the app but sometimes it’s wrong and sometimes it’s right) but so irregular with my period so it’s hard to know. I caved and did a PT and it was BFN 😭 it’s our first month trying but was hoping for good news. I’ll hold out hope still. 🤞🏼 for you! x

Lalala1985 · 23/07/2021 16:58

7DPO today, already tested today Grin and yesterday. BFN obviously!

blossom325 · 23/07/2021 17:00

I know it’s so hard to resist isn’t it? I’m 8/9 dpo maybe more depending on exactly when I ovulated but BFN for all the tests I’ve done

Wanderdream · 23/07/2021 18:52

@MrsF111 wow sounds like quite a journey you’ve been on so far. My daughter is a rainbow baby, 🤞 you gets yours soon.

@Lebe14 yes I felt the same when I had my first, kind of hoped it didn’t come that month but also wanted it to come too!

Welcome @Exquis, @JScarlett, @blossom325 and @Lalala1985, hopefully we can all hold out on testing for a while!

Hi all, hope you don't mind if I join you 😊

I'm 3dpo, AF due 3rd Aug so will be testing at the end of July at 10dpo earliest 🤞

This is my first proper cycle following MC in June. 7th cycle overall TTC baby number 2!

I'm BBT charting this time around.. trying to keep calm this month but I know it won't happen 😂

Lebe14 · 24/07/2021 18:11

@Wanderdream defo - it's mixed emotions isn't it!

Oh and I got a happy surprise today when I realised I'm actually on cycle 10 (month 8) TTC, not 11 like I've been telling everyone! So that makes me feel a bit happier for some reason.

I'm now 6DPO but with no symptoms so far - but it's defo still a bit early. Let's see if I still feel this chilled in 2 days time 😂

@Lulukate1 so sorry to hear about your MC last month. Fingers crossed for this cycle x

Lalala1985 · 24/07/2021 18:21

I haven't done a great job on holding out testing, I've posted this in another thread but will post it here too... I have a vvvvvvfl, waiting until 12 hours later to test again.

@Lalala1985 I can see a faint line! Fingers tightly crossed for you!! Let us know how you get on tomorrow xx

Lalala1985 · 24/07/2021 22:46

@Lebe14 Definitely darker just 11 hrs later.

@Lalala1985 that's amazing - loads darker after just 11 hours!!! Congrats! 🥳 xx

JScarlett · 25/07/2021 22:15

I caved and tested today with a FRER, BFN 😔 I think I'm 11dpo so must be out this month 😔 xx

Lebe14 · 26/07/2021 08:11

@JScarlett so sorry to hear that 😔 you're not fully out until AF arrives though. Fingers crossed! Xx

JScarlett · 26/07/2021 08:32

@lebe14 thank you 😊 think AF must be due shortly (not 100% as I'm irregular) so then if it does show, at least can try again next month xx

Hermioninny · 26/07/2021 12:44

Hi all, AF due on the 30th, TTC number 1, first month properly trying. I know it’s not likely to be successful first month but I’m struggling not to get my hopes up. 10DPO today and tempted to test but trying to hold out. I’ve been reading a lot about conception and really think it was easier when I knew a lot less!

Wanderdream · 26/07/2021 20:04

Welcome @Lulukate1 and @Hermioninny

Congrats @Lalala1985 amazing news!

Sorry to hear you think you’re out @JScarlett, I think I am too. With my previous pregnancy and previous miscarriage I’ve had really strong symptoms by this point and I have nothing so far so think I’m out too xx

OP posts:
Lebe14 · 26/07/2021 20:23

I think I'm out the cycle too 😔 I'm 8DPO and AF is due on 30th. Been feeling PMSy today and tired - this is normal for me 4 days before AF arrives (from looking back at previous logs into my app) - so seems like a regular cycle. Going to test on Wednesday at 10DPO anyway.

@Hermioninny I totally agree that it seems a lot easier before you actually start TTC then read all about it. I'm on cycle 10 (although for the last few months I've been 1 ahead calculating my cycles so was pleasantly surprised to find this is cycle 10 and not 11, like I originally thought!!) so definitely feel like it's hard going x

Wanderdream · 26/07/2021 20:46

Oh that sucks @Lebe14, it’s hard thinking you’re out before you even are! My period is due around Wednesday (short luteal phase) so I’ll test on thurs if it’s not shown by then. I only tend to get pms symptoms the day before/day of my period so don’t get much warning

Lulukate1 · 27/07/2021 23:41

@wanderdream hi, thanks for letting me tag along. It must be close to test time for you? 🤞

@lebe14 you're not out until AF shows, good luck with testing tomorrow 🤞

@Lalala1985 congratulations! Do we have a good line progression? 😊

I'll be 7dpo tomorrow so hoping for a dip in temp for implantation over the coming days! If I see one I'll be testing soon! Does anyone else track their BBT? It's my first proper cycle tracking it and its really interesting when it matches up to my cycle exactly!
