Well, I just did get that very faint positive on my lunch break just now. Thought I’d do an internet cheapies out of curiosity and there’s two little lines 😲

Didn’t expect this at all…

Still early days but we’ll see how it progresses. Hope it’s the stickiest of beans.

@Firsttimetrier Wow! Congrats! Don't even need to squint to see that! Are you sure it is only 9DPO?

Firsttimetrier · 19/11/2021 14:18

@CrumchyLeafs I think so! I think I ovulated on the 10th Nov, but didn’t use any OPKs this month. I think Flo was correct though as I had ovulation pain.

I really shouldn’t have done this on my lunch break as it’s impossible to concentrate at work 😂

HollyB7 · 19/11/2021 14:45

@Firsttimetrier ah congrats!! That's a great positive!!

Did you hold/stop drinking liquids for a while? I always thought you had to do FMU!

I'm sure you're delighted!! Exciting!

Firsttimetrier · 19/11/2021 14:49

@HollyB7 I held for about two hours before but had a coffee the hour before I did that test 🥴

I’m in a state of shock because I swore this month wasn’t the one. I can’t concentrate at work and now just waiting for DH to come home so I can tell him before he goes away on a boys weekend!

Bd1787 · 19/11/2021 14:59

Congrats @Firsttimetrier that's a great line for 9dpo, must be very sensitive strips! I can imagine it's so hard to concret trays on anything else now. How long have you been ttc?

CrumchyLeafs · 19/11/2021 15:01

@Firsttimetrier So happy for you! Smile Praying for sticky bean!

Firsttimetrier · 19/11/2021 15:16

Thank you @CrumchyLeafs and everyone else!

@Bd1787 this is the second month trying for numbero 1! I knew October wouldn’t have been successful as we didn’t DTD close enough to ov! This time we attempted SMEP, so felt like a real ‘proper’ try.

Hoping you are all close behind me with BFPs! ❤️

boymummy89 · 19/11/2021 17:46

@Firstimetrier wow!! Amazing! Over the moon for you! X

I did a cheap test with fmu but no hint of a line at all. Hoping I'm just too early

10DPO and BFN with FRER this morning, also more brown spotting. I feel defeated, I just have this feeling that AF is going to show up. At 10DPO a FRER should be able to pick it up. FF has predicted AF to arrive in 5 days but I don't know how long my luteal phase is since this is my first cycle trying and I never had regular periods outside of taking BC, so it could definitely arrive sooner than that.

GroovesintheHeart · 20/11/2021 12:44

Hey ladies, I think I’m 5 DPO but I ovulated a few days later than usual. Meaning we didn’t DTD on my peak days because DP was at a stag do :(

Not feeling that hopeful this month but also quite calm about. It sure why but I always thought we’d get pregnant in December. It’s only our second month of trying too.

Good luck everyone!

Same boat as you, this is 3rd month first cycle was positive opk on day 14, next month was day 16 then this month was day 19...so it by time I'd got my positive my window was all out of sync and did it the wrong times 😂

Sorry to hear @CrumchyLeafs, I know it's so disappointing seeing a negative test. It is very normal for it not to happen first time though, but saying that it could be too early for AF and you could be experiencing implantation maybe?

CrumchyLeafs · 20/11/2021 14:30

@Bd1787 I already had spotting on DPO 7 and 8... then nothing on DPO9 and now again this morning DPO10, it has since disappeared again. I'm not sure. Most people I have seen on here get at least a shadow of a line on DPO10 with a FRER, some even a very clear line. I'm just gonna wait and see I guess. But my temperature actually spiked this morning instead of going down? Oh who the hell knows Confused

Arly90 · 20/11/2021 19:39

Hello ladies. How we all doing?

Sorry I've went MIA... Trying really hard not to over obsess.... I'm still a week away from AF but feeling really down for some reason and really like this is not my month and decided to have a wine or two tonight 🙈 I've had some twinges the last few days but I've had this before day 7/8 post ovulation.... I hate the two week wait 😭 x

boymummy89 · 20/11/2021 20:13

Can anyone see anything on this... Pretty sure it's just an indent...not even sur wof visible on photos 😂

5/6dpo who's with me?

@boymummy89 I definitely see a shadow, but I don't think I can trust my own eyes anymore, haha.

9dpo and BFN - not sure why I tested but oh well. I know it's early but not feeling confident. My BBT chart doesn't look too promising, very low temps!!

AmyD54321 · 21/11/2021 07:50

I’m 5dpo today and feel absolutely nothing, no symptoms at all. Should I have felt something by now? Not feeling very positive…

Hopefulhedgehog · 21/11/2021 08:16

@AmyD54321 very unlikely egg would have implanted by 5dpo so no reason you would have any symptoms. A lot of people have no symptoms until they are about 6 weeks pregnant anyway so you are certainly not out yet!

Hopefulhedgehog · 21/11/2021 08:18

I'm 6dpo today AF not due until 2nd December so still a long wait ahead. Will try not to cave into any early testing

That’s reassuring!! Thank you
