Hi ladies. Anyone else in their tww on 4Dpo? We had an IUI last Thursday, the same day I ovulated, so I know I'm deffo 4DPO. I had a chem 2 years ago so don't remember any symptoms really. I'm also 36 so an older first time carrier! [blush] The only things I have noticed is needing a wee all the time, gurgling in my uterus and a full feeling, like you get before AF. Also had a constant headache since Friday These are probably all nothing but I like to think there is something cool going on in my womb right now! :) Will be testing next week at 10DPO and again at 14DPO Anyone else? [smile]

Yeah maybe @Danani but I'm not convinced! I normally have some sort of spotting around this time anyway, it's just this month I'm really bloated, have lower backache and my allergies have flared up. Apart from that, I can't say too much has changed! I'll see how the bleeding progresses over the next day x

Mummytobe93 · 19/09/2021 15:25

@Danani I know right, it’s such a hit or miss with potential symptoms so early on, can be something or nothing 😪
I’ll be also testing first thing in the morning, 7 o’clock latest. ✨

Danani · 19/09/2021 15:32

@Mummytobe93 it’s a date! 🤞🏻🍀 A POAS date but still 😂

misstickhill · 19/09/2021 17:00

So I got ahead of myself and tested this afternoon and of course it’s a BFN on FRER. My AF is due on Saturday so technically I’m testing a day early right looking at their stats? I think 6 days before a missed period will be tomorrow? Still only 9dpo so there is hope....I hope!

Danani · 19/09/2021 17:06

@misstickhill there is definitely hope!
Also those 6 days early count the day AF is due so yes, at the very least you are a full day early. Even then, the % of a BFP are pretty low if you read the instructions…I seem to remember something like 50ish or 60ish %.
9 DPO is pretty early regardless, you may be better off waiting a couple of days at least before re-testing.

There’s plenty of time for that BFP! Good luck 🍀

You're due on the same day as me! I think I'm gonna hold off testing until then (if AF doesn't show up of course!) 😩

misstickhill · 19/09/2021 17:48

@Cruz86 it’s so painful isn’t it! You’ve got more willpower than me 🤣

misstickhill · 20/09/2021 08:56

So I tested first thing this morning and after 3 minutes I thought it was a negative until looking again and I can see the faintest of faint second line. Thought I was line spotting and so asked DH to check and he can see it too. Going to boots for open to get another of the same to see if I can see anything on a non used one to compare. Worried it’s an evap line but read the result well within the window? Arghhhh

Is it a blue dye test? Can you share a pic and we'll give you our thoughts too? It's so stressful isn't it 😩

misstickhill · 20/09/2021 09:40

@Cruz86 it was a FRER. Bought another and it was exactly the same :( boo. Now I’m throwing my whole cycle into doubt. As it’s our first month I just thought we would wing it and not test for ovulation so maybe I’ve just got it all wrong!

Cruz86 · 20/09/2021 13:04

Ah how frustrating 😞 You're not out yet though. When do you think you ovulated and what signs did you have?

misstickhill · 20/09/2021 13:32

@Cruz86 I feel like such a novice. So much to think about!
So on CD 15 which was last Friday I had some EWCM in the evening and well into Saturday. I’ve presumed I ovulated on Friday as that also correlates with my Flo app, but really I suppose I could have ovulated on Saturday or even Sunday. So maybe I am just too early. Next month it’s ovulation tests all the way to avoid this.

Cruz86 · 20/09/2021 14:10

There really is so much to think about @misstickhill! Is this your first cycle trying? I think I might get ovulation sticks next month as well, even though I said to oh if it happens, it happens 😂😂

Pugmumm · 20/09/2021 14:14

I am a week DPO. Good luck!!

The wait is crappy. I've just bought myself an ultra sensitive preg test to take end of next week... 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

End of next week? You have more willpower than me! 😂 x

misstickhill · 22/09/2021 09:31

Morning all.
I took a test this morning and there is the faintest faint line on it. I inverted it as well and can definitely see a smudge on there. DH said he saw it straight away as well. What are your thoughts?! Especially @Jrenai who has had a faint positive recently!

MrsM29 · 22/09/2021 09:52

@misstickhill I can deffo see a line!! keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Cruz86 · 22/09/2021 11:46

Yes I can definitely see it @misstickhill!!!

Sorry I've been AWOL! Been camping so no phone! Well ladies I'm 13DPO, mega strong lines and have a 7 week scan booked for 4 weeks time :) super excited.

So just to recap

2-6 DPO CRAMPING
7 DPO sharp sudden oin prick pain in uterus, lasting a second.
8 DPO faint line on test

I had no implantation bleeding. Very tender boobs and cramping early on which convinced me, because I don't get this until a day before my period.

I've had nausea the last few days, I'm bloated, vivid dreams that I remember and peeing like a race horse haha

I’ve convinced myself it’s a false positive as apparently FRER can be a bit dodgy with faint lines. Can barely wait until tomorrow!!

Mummytobe93 · 22/09/2021 18:18

Mine FRER was a bit similar on Saturday, I had all negatives since then. I hope yours turns out BFP! 🤗

misstickhill · 22/09/2021 18:31

Exactly the same @Mummytobe93 :(
I definitely think I’m out!

Is there any pink in that line? My first one I was convinced was an indent, but a few days later it was ever so faint pink.

Also, I have been taking Co Q 10 for 3 months, which I'm convinced helped me conceive first time. It's amazing for making eggs healthier and more susceptible to sperm.
I've also been taking folic acid and vitamin D for the same time.
I started taking 800mu of folic acid 4 weeks prior to treatment and took 2 coq10 a day a month prior too :)
I got the co q 10 from amazon, pic included.

Hope this helps anyone for next month :)
