7DPO...

[line123eyesalways]

I'm 7DPO today (I think) and driving myself mad with symptom spotting....

Is anyone else in the same boat?

@Mamastarz it does but I did have some lower back pain on one side earlier! I've only got the cheapy tests for the morning! I can get some FRERs tomorrow afternoon though! X

@Charl881 are you thinking of enjoying Christmas before? Would be nice actually seen as last Christmas was ruined by covid.

@Mamastarz it came up about 4-5 mins after doing the test. I think it's just an evap it's just weird, never seen it like that before. Typical that I'd get that 🙈

I've just had 2 mc's in a row so hoping my body is ready soon. Sorry to hear you have had them too but it's nice to hear you have had a successful pregnancy too. I take a bit of comfort from that.

@line123eyesalways hope tomorrow is your BFP day! I don't know whether to test or wait j til Wednesday. But I need to let this clinic know if I'm pregnant or not 🙄

@Mamastarz sorry forgot to say, I'm 8DPO so it's still very early!

@chasingtherainbow1 yeah exactly last one was ruined and the one before that I was pregnant and suffering from both bad morning sickness was and a cold! But I’ll probably change my mind next month.

@line123eyesalways, to be honest im not a lover of the frer, as when i was last pregnant there, it didn't pick up my pregnancy at all, the cheapy tests did and clearblue did, and i used them with the same urine sample. Sometimes i think the cheap tests are just as good, although not as sensitive. Goodluck for tomorrow, x

@chasingtherainbow1, thats is still very early, so i wouldn't rule yourself out at all, even if your test did happen to be neg tomorrow, yes u agree that previous test was very strange indeed, but i suppose not uncommon, hoping its a lucky sign for you.
Yes i had 3 miscarriages in a row, and was referred for tests, but i had tunnel vision and just wanted to be pregnant, so kept going, and fell pregnant again, lucky i have an amazing gp, who helped me straight away, and for that i will be forever thankful.
And recently ive had another 2 miscarriages, the epu had me on progesterone this time but unfortunately it wasnt meant to be. X

@Charl881 yeah it would be nice to relax and enjoy the time this year!

@Mamastarz I'm sorry you have been through that. It's such an awful experience isn't it. I always understood that miscarriages were awful but I think actually experiencing one is far worse than I ever imagined! So glad you have your rainbow baby though and hope you get another soon!

My partner just made me do a FRER because he elbowed my boob and i nearly cried because it was that painful. This is what came up. Part of me thinks it's a bit darker than the awful lines I got last month but at the same time I don't trust FRER anymore. It's just the last one I had left. Here we go again 🙈

@chasingtherainbow1, oh my, i can definitely see a line on that test, im really hoping that in the next day or two, it will be darker for you, but thats looking good so far..

I agree with you, i always knew it was hard for people who went throught them, but i never imagined just how hard it could be until i was in the same situation,
Thankyou, and im looking forward to seeing your line progressions over the next few days, wishing you every bit of luck. X 🤞

@chasingtherainbow1 eeeek definitely a line there! Fingers crossed it’s a proper one unlike last month’s for you. The boob pain sounds promising too! Keep us updated, keeping my fingers crossed for you x

@Mamastarz I'm going to take the one I've got here and get a stronger one in the evening!

@chasingtherainbow1 oh that's definitely a line!! And only 8DPO too?! When are you going to retest? X

@line123eyesalways, goodluck for the morning, have fingers crossed for you x 🤞

Cheers guys, will see what happens next! I'll probably test tomorrow. I know that's a bad idea because it will only be 12 hours away but let's be honest, I won't be able to resist!

@Mamastarz I didn't test this morning! I woke up at 3:30am to go to the toilet and was so dazed I completely forgot 😂 it was too dilute this morning to even bother as I only have cheapy tests and still not due for 2 days! X

@chasingtherainbow1 will you test this morning or later on in the day?

@line123eyesalways I'm just debating whether to do one. I woke up and went to the toilet but I'm not sure what time, was too tired to check 😂

I feel like it's just going to be an indent though like last month. So in my mind I'm just trying to forgot I saw that and carry on as usual

Hi ladies, can i join?! 7dpo today, TTC 1 on cycle 2 and not feeling so positive! No real symptoms this month, just a few twinges. Trying not to obsess and test on Saturday but its so hard! I learnt from last month that symptoms can mislead you, my boobs were so sore and i was convinced. This month i got a fibroid scan as one was found a few years ago, they found 3 more but also showed my egg getting ready which i thought was a good sign - the sonographer even advised when to dtd but we missed one day. I thought i would just know when it happens and be relaxed but this wait is such a struggle xx

@mia899 hi Mia :) I am 7dpo ttc first baby cycle 2 as well :) I haven't had any symptoms at all except a very mild feeling on my left side of the abdomen yesterday but tbh it could be anything. I watched so many videos on YouTube where people have loooots of symptoms as easrly as 1dpo and my optimism faded :(

@mia899

@chasingtherainbow1 ohhh do one! 😂. That looked a lot darker than past indents!

@mia899 of course! It's so hard to try not to symptom spot! I've had loads of symptoms this month but it could all be down to AF. when are you planning to test? X

@Mrslight I'm also TTC #1 😊 I think this is my third cycle, I've lost track 😂

I know some people who have had no symptoms at all so don't lose hope! X

Ok I did one and they don't look much different. However it's not even been 12 hours since the last. The top one is last nights and bottom this morning. It's hard to get a pic of them side by side.

I'm probably going to leave it a day bow because I'm not letting FRER get me like they did last month!

@chasingtherainbow1 yeah they look the same!

Good idea to wait! I'm going to get a FRER tonight I think.... x

@line123eyesalways I'm not sure if advise getting frer! I think there's something wrong with them atm

@chasingtherainbow1 I suppose after all the indents! I'm not too sure which ones to get! D

@line123eyesalways it's annoying because personally I find clear blue awful. They always give a faint line so I was always happy to spend money on FRER. But now they're just as bad. It's just bugging me because I need to know before my Friday appointment

@chasingtherainbow1 it's hard because the own brands are usually a higher HCG level! I'll see what the shop have when I go! I'm really not feeling hopeful anyway x

@chasingtherainbow1 the bottom pic has a stronger line!! I can see it !
Normally I'm the biggest cynic on these lines questions but I can see yours x
