Hello ladies!
No matter how early it is, no matter how many symptoms you have or don't have drop your tests below and let us make a testing group and be each other's eyes.

I will test on Monday, which is the day AF is to arrive (... unless I'm just too curious and test during the weekend).

Baby dust to all of you!

It's the beauty of having a partner that works from home 😉😉😉

TheBirdintheCave · 24/02/2022 11:20

@Coastaldreamer Wow! Congratulations! :D

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 11:46

I can only think I'm due to/have just ovulated and that's why pregnancy tests are currently neg! 😬

Obsessive testers welcome!
Charl881 · 24/02/2022 11:53

@allthingssparkly yeah I would think so! At least you know you’re definitely not out.

I’m feeling so fed up right now. Just want to fast toward through the next couple of weeks to my fertile window so I can at least have a bit of hope again. Feels like it’s never going to happen for me.

Coastaldreamer · 24/02/2022 11:54

@TheBirdintheCave and all others thank you 😊 now to keep calm and sane lol

Coastaldreamer · 24/02/2022 11:59

@allthingssparkly at least you know now
To get on it with the DTD and it's just later than you thought

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 12:06

@Charl881 & @Coastaldreamer Very true 😊 deed has been done yesterday and today 🤭🤭 so we shall see how things go. Can't believe I've got to endure the pain of the TWW 😩😩😩 hopefully I'm not the only one! 🤞

TheBirdintheCave · 24/02/2022 13:54

@allthingssparkly It’s almost like you get a second shot at this month :)

Charl881 · 24/02/2022 14:10

Yeah it’s like you’ve just fast forwarded to the good bit @allthingssparkly!

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 14:18

@TheBirdintheCave and @Charl881 Pray for me ladies, I honestly hope I get a positive test in the next couple of weeks 🤞 ⭐🤍

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 14:29

Feeling sick and headachy this afternoon and honestly this week I've been so fatigued, could literally fall asleep throughout the day 🙁🙁🙁 surely it's way to early for symptoms!

Charl881 · 24/02/2022 14:59

@allthingssparkly so confusing for you! I wonder if you are pregnant and just testing too early?! How many days past ovulation did you think you were at based on when you first thought you ovulated?

Coastaldreamer · 24/02/2022 15:02

@allthingssparkly yeah that's weird to get those symptoms if you've only just tested positive for OPK?

sherbetmelon · 24/02/2022 15:09

@allthingssparkly you sound just like me.
I had two surges this month but the first didn't quite go dark enough. That was on CD12. I know I ovulate very late, it was picked up when I conceived my DD (I was trying at the complete wrong time of the month before she was amazingly conceived). This month I'm pretty sure I ovulated on CD25, I usually have 31 day cycles, the only time AF has been more than a couple of days late for me was when I was pregnant. Because of my late ovulation and short luteal phase though I didn't get a positive until AF was almost 2 weeks late. I'm due AF on Monday but praying she doesn't show, I'm only 2DPO Smile

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 15:22

@Charl881 I do wonder if I am testing too early 🤔 my period would be due a week today (3rd March) I first thought I ovulated on the 14th Feb so today I would be 11 DPO.

@Coastaldreamer Yeah it is strange and honestly the fatigue is something else I've had it all week and I've never had it before 😩 when I'm driving as well I feel like I could doze off it's horrible! Obviously I don't fall asleep at the wheel but it's that exhausted/extreme tiredness feeling I get 👎

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 15:24

@sherbetmelon So glad there's someone on here in a similar situ! Sending baby dust your way ⭐ I honestly hope something positive comes from all this confusion 🙈 I'm not going to test now until my period is late (she says, lightly) 😬

laalaa28 · 24/02/2022 15:37

Hi girls had my implant out in February
Periods all over the place really
No period in jan I had kidney stone surgery
Had sex on the 31st jan
Taken a light 3/4 day period on the 10th feb
Been sick last 4 mornings
Tingly nipples

Verrry fair positive starting to think it’s an evap line anyone been in a similar situation?

Charl881 · 24/02/2022 15:59

@allthingssparkly if you ovulated on 14th Feb you’d only actually be 10dpo as you don’t count the day you ovulate, so it could definitely be too early on a cheapy! Just keep doing cheap HCG and LH tests each day I guess and see what happens, at least you’ve DTD any way so you’re covered either way.

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 16:14

@Charl881 Ok, thanks 😊 I'll keep you all posted on the outcome ⭐

Charl881 · 24/02/2022 16:57

Ok I might be going completely mad but I swear I’ve just had another faint line. I know it’s not a proper line and most likely an indent, but it’s there isn’t it?!

(I’ve had so many indents and evaps in the past so I’m not getting hopes up, just want to check I’m not going totally mad)

It’s a lot more obvious on the edited one (contrast right down and grey scale) but sure I can see a shadow in some lights in real life and on unedited versions too.

Coastaldreamer · 24/02/2022 17:31

@Charl881 I can see it clearest on the edited one. Maybe try again on FMU?

stuntbubbles · 24/02/2022 17:39

I can see it on the edited one, but my rule is if you have to edit it, it’s not there. (I’ve edited myself plenty of non-existent BFPs, I can make a line out of anything.)

Are those one steps? Always have a shadow for me, but 🤞🏻 for something stronger and clearer tomorrow morning

allthingssparkly · 24/02/2022 17:51

Any ladies on here know if the FRER detect HCG lower than 10miu?

I'm feeling so nauseous 😩

stuntbubbles · 24/02/2022 17:58

Think FRER is 12.5 – they can detect it lower, but they have to detect it at 12.5 as that’s what the packaging says. One step are 10. But if your hcg was high enough to make you nauseous, it would be high enough to turn a test. Progesterone always makes me nauseous.
