Thanks for your answers I've not used them before!

Tomorrow would be better - 6 days before your period is due (counting the day it's due on)

Good luck!

Diamondbabe · 08/01/2022 07:43

Ok I didn't know it was including the day of.

I took it before I saw anyone responded and it's negative. Am I still in with a chance then?

Thanks for your help x

@Diamondbabe Definitely. You're not out until your period arrives!
My period is due on the 13th and I tested today but negative too!

Diamondbabe · 09/01/2022 07:37

Tested with a FRER negative :(

OP posts:
Diamondbabe · 09/01/2022 07:37

But still not due for 5 days so I'm guessing I'm not mega out yet

Hi can I join? Think I'm due around the 14th. Had a MMC in Nov at 9 weeks. First month TTC since. Cycle is a bit all over the place. Trying to hold out on testing if I can x

Diamondbabe · 09/01/2022 09:13

Well done you've got more restraint than me! Sorry about your MMC

@Diamondbabe Thanks, I had a go on a few OPKs the other day and couldn't be any more negative so trying to stay away! Have u any symptoms? I'm driving myself mad symptom spotting x

2022WIP · 09/01/2022 09:16

I'm in the exact same boat. Tested yesterday and it was negative. Still hoping but think in out!

calimc83 · 09/01/2022 10:20

@2022WIP it's still v early days x

Diamondbabe · 09/01/2022 11:06

Yeah I did think I was moody ha and very tired and definitely felt some twinges. But it's hard to know if they're in my head. I've got a little boy who's 1 and I didn't get anything with him! We were on holiday so I couldnt test as I didn't have any with me and I came back and it was 1-2 weeks so very clear! It took us 3 months. This is only our first month with baby 2 so I should be more patient as I know it takes time but it's hard lol

Hi Op. you're not out yet!
I tested again today too... massively negative. Had some spotting yesterday which usually means my period is coming but then it stopped... I tend to spot 6/7 days before my period so it could be that or implantation bleeding? I'm going with the former!

I'll stay on the thread though, just incase :)
Fingers crossed for everyone

Diamondbabe · 09/01/2022 13:48

I'll test again the next few days and we'll see but I would have thought if my period was due in the 13th/14th I'd have seen something

OP posts:
HelloNope · 09/01/2022 19:45

@Diamondbabe I'm thinking the same, but we will know for sure in a few days. Hope you get your BFP.

2022WIP · 09/01/2022 19:47

@HelloNope @Diamondbabe do you think there's still a chance for me?

Two negative early tests and due Thursday / Friday.

Last time I got pregnant it was a blazing positive on the day I was due so not feeling hopeful!

HelloNope · 09/01/2022 21:06

@2022WIP You're due your period the same day as me :)
You're not out until it arrives! Im going to leave it a couple of days and see what happens.

What tests are you using?

2022WIP · 09/01/2022 21:07

Fingers crossed for us both!

The FRER I think someone called them on here - first response! Have ordered clear blue ovulation thing for my next cycle to hopefully increase my chances!

HelloNope · 09/01/2022 21:11

@2022WIP Good plan, which one did you order? How long have you been TTC? Is this for your first?

2022WIP · 09/01/2022 21:15

@HelloNope it's the digital one. It was quite expensive but I was feeling so despondent earlier and saw someone recommend it on another thread!

This is my first! What about you?

It's only cycle two but I got pregnant last year first time without even really trying - I didn't realise how so so lucky I was and now I'm stressing myself out it's not happening again. I have endometriosis and I'm mid 30s so I'm scared that was my only chance!

Seems like everyone I know is pregnant!

HelloNope · 09/01/2022 22:02

@2022WIP I'm TTC my 3rd. First was first try, second was a happy accident! I'm also mid 30's now so wondering if that means it will take longer.

It's a good sign that you were able to fall pregnant last year, so fingers crossed for you that it happens again soon! It wasn't your only chance, try not to think like that x

2022WIP · 09/01/2022 22:13

@HelloNope thank you and fingers crossed for us both!

I've been symptom spotting like crazy which is silly as when I did get a BFP I was shocked as had no symptoms or idea!

calimc83 · 10/01/2022 17:04

Think AF is here. 10 DPO and starting to spot...ffs x

2022WIP · 10/01/2022 19:30

Well, I'm officially out. Looks like AF is very early.

Cycles are all over the place.

calimc83 · 10/01/2022 21:18

@2022WIP how many DPO are you? AF is a witch. Hope u are ok x

2022WIP · 10/01/2022 21:25

@calimc83 not really sure as I haven't been tracking but I'm going to start now.

Slightly concerned its come so early but I had my booster so it might have messed things up!

Fingers crossed for you this week Grin let's hope we get some BFPs on this thread!
