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!

I think 13DPO today @allthingssparkly

Maybe you are just ov later this month and hopefully you get your second chance.

@Lucy123xxxxx looks like a line but a bit to the left ?

allthingssparkly · 25/02/2022 09:24

@Coastaldreamer Ahh okay, I think I am either testing too early or like you said I've ovulated later than I thought 🤔 the wait is just painful 😖 x

allthingssparkly · 25/02/2022 09:41

I'm really hoping it is that I'm testing too soon as I have just been on to the FRER website and you can actually input your LMP and cycle length then it tells you the earliest date you can take one of their tests and it says for me the earliest date is the 27th Feb 😬😬 will re test then 😊

stuntbubbles · 25/02/2022 10:23

@Lucy123xxxxx did it come up in the time frame? I get evap lines like that when I leave blue tests for a while – with all the dye on the left, a skinny line. A true positive is usually fat and even. But fingers crossed for you, do you have a pink dye test?

Charl881 · 25/02/2022 10:50

Am driving myself mad now, fished out my test from this morning and it has a line on there. Don’t need to squint to see it but not sure it has colour and obviously was after the three mins so it doesn’t count.

BUT same brand test from yesterday doesn’t have a line at all. Surely both would have evap lines.

Nothing I can do but wait now as going away for a long weekend and not taking tests with me.

Coastaldreamer · 25/02/2022 11:24

@Charl881 I can see that without even zooming in. How weird. Any chance you can go and buy a digi before you go away?

Charl881 · 25/02/2022 11:35

@Coastaldreamer I think I’m going to wait because if AF hasn’t arrived by Monday then I’m officially late so it should be positive if I truly am pregnant. Fully expecting AF to show tomorrow or Sunday at the latest so I won’t be disappointed if it does arrive.

TheBirdintheCave · 25/02/2022 12:02

@Charl881 I see it on the last pic :D Good luck!

Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2022 08:25

@Charl881 hope you're doing ok!

I had the tiniest bit of spotting last night and got worried it was another chemical but nothing all night this morning and a good line on the cheapy this morning. Please hold out hope for me!

TheBirdintheCave · 26/02/2022 08:44

@Coastaldreamer I’ve had a tiny bit of brown spotting this morning and a few specs of red just now :/ I never had any kind of bleeding with my son. No pain, darker cheapie and I still have symptoms so fingers crossed it’s all ok. So so scared.

Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2022 09:07

@TheBirdintheCave it's so scary isn't it. All we can do is wait and hope. I just can't face it being another chemical.

Baby dust to you and all on here xx

Charl881 · 26/02/2022 13:46

I’m out ladies! Both tests were obviously evaps / indents. AF making an imminent arrival bang on schedule. Good luck to all those who got BFPs x

TheBirdintheCave · 26/02/2022 13:57

@Coastaldreamer Yeah I can’t stand the waiting :/ I wish pregnancy tests would just tell you whether or not it was going to work out right at the start. I want this little one so badly 😢

Spotting seems to have stopped for now. I haven’t seen any more since 9am and I’m obsessively checking just in case it’s come back. Fingers crossed for us all! 🤞🏻 My husband and I bought a little baby gro today as that’s what we did at 4+4 with our son 🙂

TheBirdintheCave · 26/02/2022 13:58

@Charl881 Sorry to hear that :( Best of luck for the next cycle! ❤️

Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2022 15:43

@Charl881 sorry 😞 to hear AF came xx baby dust for next cycle x

Nict4214 · 26/02/2022 20:41

Hey! What do you all think of these tests? (Sorry I can't upload as I'm too new so have linked them)

This was yesterday - 11 DPO

ibb.co/BwBt570

And this was today - 12 DPO

ibb.co/ZdR5KGC

Both FRER tests - from different batches though!

Flo app says I'm due AF today, Premom says Monday! I got my Mirena coil out on 05/01/22 and had an extremely heavy AF 31/01/21 - 03/02/22. Have literally no sign of her arriving, though is hard to know what is normal for me as I had the Mirena for so long and hardly got AF during it!

As this is mine and my partners first "proper" cycle TTC trying not to be too optimistic by these tests looking positive??

sherbetmelon · 26/02/2022 21:22

@Nict4214 wow those lines are amazing! Huge congratulations and first month too, that's brilliant :) wishing you a healthy pregnancy x

allthingssparkly · 27/02/2022 21:15

How is everyone? Hope you have all had a nice weekend ☺️ Good luck and baby dust to any ladies testing this coming week ⭐

User65412 · 27/02/2022 22:29

Hi everyone! Lovely to see more bfps over the weekend - congratulations to you guys.
I've completely lost control and taken 4 YES 4 Frers over the last 4 days. I justified it by thinking I could see something so telling myself it'd definitely be stronger the next day if it was 😭 I've also done what I've always said I'd never do and taken the tests apart! Please send help 😂
If my cycles are back to what they were before baby and breastfeeding then I'm due AF on Tuesday.

Obsessive testers welcome!
BuchananBaby · 28/02/2022 12:02

@allthingssparkly I'm doing good thanks how are you? How was your weekend?

Af just finishing so currently on cd5. Supposed to be O next week on DD's birthday so that's exciting 🙈 x

allthingssparkly · 28/02/2022 12:06

@BuchananBaby Glad your well, apart from feeling tired 😴 I'm good thanks! Patiently waiting to test at the end of this week, hoping AF doesn't make an appearance 🤞

Ah, good luck in your current cycle ⭐

MiaTTC2 · 28/02/2022 18:09

I'm so sorry for being off the discussion for the past few days, but I was so preoccupied. Ah... Girls, you will never believe what happened... Took HCG blood tests for the doctor and they came back negative. When I told my doctor, she was in disbelief due to my symptoms etc (we only spoke on the phone, never actually been there for aan ultrasound) so she asked me to take the blood test again which again came back negative. It seems like the home test I took that day was faulty. 😞 I'm now one week late, still nauseous and dizzy but not pregnant. Doctor says "let's wait and keep me posted." I don't know what we're waiting for, though... AF? Well, hopefully... I just want the next cycle to start.

I must have missed a ton of things!

sherbetmelon · 28/02/2022 18:18

@MiaTTC2 oh what a massive blow :( I'm so sorry to hear this xx

MiaTTC2 · 28/02/2022 18:27

@sherbetmelon I know, there must be a special place in hell where all faulty tests go after the toilet-bin 😆
