All welcome to come along for the ride and lots of support along the way!

Checking in at 5dpo, no symptoms yet!

Congratulations @Hopingforarainbow27! Fingers crossed for you Daffodil

I’m still here but I have been a bit fed up the last couple of days so stepped away.

14dpo with my period due tomorrow or Friday.

What’s very strange is that I normally spot for up to six days before it arrives, and yet nothing. Also, BBT is still riding high, and I am getting no pre-AF symptoms. I know I’m out as getting BFNs so just want AF to get here now, but just thought it strange!

Congratulations to all the new BFPs! Smile

@Hopingforarainbow27 it looks like a very strong line to me. I am no expert in terms of DPO but compared to a lot of BFP pics I’ve seen yours seems quite dark. I hope you can enjoy it a little bit; I know that’s so hard when you’ve had losses.. sending lots of love 😍 xx

Margo34 · 12/01/2022 08:19

That is some restraint!

Shortmamashortcycles · 12/01/2022 08:20

@Hopingforarainbow27 oh my goodness it's a wonderful line! Congratulations! Yay!

Hopingforarainbow27 · 12/01/2022 08:20

@DancinOnTheCeiling thank you. Yeah it has changed everything. 💕

DancinOnTheCeiling · 12/01/2022 08:23

@Decaffe sorry to hear you’re getting fed up. Are you definitely out? I thought some people don’t get their BFPs until actual AF due date or later.. but also don’t want to give false hope. Would you be able to wait with testing a couple of days? Xx

DancinOnTheCeiling · 12/01/2022 08:24

@Hopingforarainbow27 💕💕

Moonshine160 · 12/01/2022 08:28

@Hopingforarainbow27 wow what a beautiful BFP! Congratulations :) do you have any symptoms? X

I am definitely not going to test again this cycle! Definitely just going to wait for AF now. The no-spotting thing is so strange though! And no backache, no feeling of heaviness… I am probably tempting fate now! Grin

@Hopingforarainbow27

Girls I'm shook. It doesn't mean baby for me as I've had two losses but I'm so grateful to have a positive but also sitting here shaking like a leaf
Congratulations 🥳 that's such exciting news!
Billymay · 12/01/2022 08:32

@Hopingforarainbow27 that a really strong line. Congratulations xxxxx

Hopingforarainbow27 · 12/01/2022 08:36

That's so encouraging that you are all saying it's a good line!
Yesterday I went for a pee 10 times and that was my symptoms last time. Sore boobs but not as sore as last time and tired. I'm going to ring the early pregnancy unit at 9

Mariabombia · 12/01/2022 08:37

@Hopingforarainbow27 eeeek!!! Amazing 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations xxxx

Billymay · 12/01/2022 08:44

I’m thinking my test yesterday was a false positive as I done a pre mom stick one this morning and nothing. I know it’s still early days as by my app I’m only 8dpo. I don’t chart or use opks so maybe I ovulated early. I have done first response tests due for delivery but will hold out using them. I fedl like I could be but I don’t know if that’s because of that test making me feel like I am. I thought it was rare to get a false positive… damn you cheap pregnancy test. Xxx

DancinOnTheCeiling · 12/01/2022 08:49

@Decaffe fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Xx

Moonshine160 · 12/01/2022 08:50

Sorry to hear that @Billymay, I would give it a couple of days and try again. That test you posted a pic of yesterday looked like quite a strong positive so I’m not surprised you’re confused?! 8DPO is so early so there’s still time yet. I did a test at 7DPO yesterday, god knows why! It was negative of course xx

We’re soon going to have to start another new thread ladies! Grin

Natalie2304 · 12/01/2022 08:54

@Hopingforarainbow27 congratulations that's a lovely line! Did you do anything any different this month?

I'm out. The spotting has started again and AF is due tomorrow so is about right for the spotting to start. Have all the usual pre AF symptoms too. On to cycle 4 😒 (which I know for some of you is nothing but every month sucks doesn't it!)

Is there a February chat set up yet?

Hopingforarainbow27 · 12/01/2022 08:57

@Natalie2304 I started Chinese herbs, they brought my cycle from 35 to 28, actually didn't even get to use them all. Started acupuncture as well.

Gizzy93 · 12/01/2022 09:08

I think I'm out. Temp drop this morning and cramps that feel very much like AF. They feel like the ones I get a few hours before I start bleeding.
FF also changed my o day after today's temp, so now I'm 6dpo instead of 7
I have been very, very tired today though. I feel like I could sleep for a week

OMG! @Hopingforarainbow27 congratulations on the huge positive!!

chasingtherainbow1 · 12/01/2022 09:15

@Hopingforarainbow27 congratulations! Lovely line. ❤️ think I've spoken to you on a few threads before.

I was active on the previous thread but have just been watching it recently as I've had a bad month mentally with ttc. Think it's because there were so many Christmas and new year baby announcements and it just got to me after losing 2 babies last year.

However, yesterday at 9DPO I also got a positive. It's a faint line but it appeared on 2 different brands of tests FRER and Easy@Home. Did the test at about 8pm last night. Just done one again this morning and it's slightly darker but it's only been 12 hours so not too much change yet. Feel like I'm jinxing it but posting it on here though. Weird how loss makes you think 🤔

What an amaze BFP! Congrats!
HelloNope · 12/01/2022 09:32

@Decaffe Have you done any investigations into your spotting? I can't remember if you have? X

Gizzy93 · 12/01/2022 09:33

Oh gosh, congrats @Hopingforarainbow27 and @chasingtherainbow1!! Fingers crossed for sticky beans!

jazmine38 · 12/01/2022 09:38

Maybe bfp but still really faint. But it's a line!
