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!

Hey @Shansmith1412 I'm doing okay, I've had the cramping on and off again this morning which just seems so bizarre as I only get cramping the day my period is due and it isn't due till 3rd May. They are so similar to period cramps just milder 🤷

Hopefully my temps stay elevated 🤞

How are you? X

@allthingssparkly could be implantation? Are you 7dpo today? Fingers crossed for you😁

Feeling a bit deflated today... my best friend announced to me in secret last night that she could quite possibly be pregnant with her 3rd and she's worried because her partner doesn't want anymore - he's getting the snip. Long story short they were "careful" 😬. I don't want to sound horrible but I feel like she's doing it for attention and she likes to take the light away from people.

Other than that I've been super gassy yesterday and today🙈

allthingssparkly · 27/04/2022 11:21

It could well be implantation, certainly in the window for that. I'm 8dpo today @Shansmith1412 😊

Oh no 😩😩 not fair saying that to you especially when you are ttc! Also they should be using contraception if her oh doesn't want anymore children 😳

How many DPO are you now? 😊😊

Shansmith1412 · 27/04/2022 11:46

@allthingssparkly not much longer for you😊 have you been tempted to test yet?😂

She did have the implant in but had it taken out a few weeks ago because she suffered really bad periods. Won't use condoms because she doesn't like them and decided not to use any other contraception apart from the pull out game 😬

I'm 3dpo today. I feel like im on the slowest roller coaster in the world🥲

allthingssparkly · 27/04/2022 15:24

@Shansmith1412 I honestly haven't been tempted yet, but I'm getting close to 🤣 going to wait till 10dpo at least.

Oh dear, the pull out method didn't really work very well in her case 😬

Ahh, I hope it goes quickly for you. Once you have got the first week out with it won't be much longer! I do think the 2nd week goes quickly. I can't believe I'm 8dpo 😳

allthingssparkly · 29/04/2022 06:57

How are you @Shansmith1412? 😊 x

MelissaD10 · 29/04/2022 09:52

please be honest can you see anything on this test? 🙈my eyes are playing tricks on me so I’m not sure! Different angles look different 😂

Obsessive testers welcome!
Kitty901 · 29/04/2022 14:37

@MelissaD10 i see it! 🤗 test again tomorrow to confirm.

MelissaD10 · 29/04/2022 15:02

Thank you I’ve done another since haha still a faint line eeeek

Shansmith1412 · 30/04/2022 11:29

@allthingssparkly I'm doing good thanks! 6dpo today and nothing really happening up to now.
How are you? X

allthingssparkly · 30/04/2022 12:03

Glad your doing ok @Shansmith1412 I'm good thanks, cramping made an appearance earlier 🙈 no other symptoms though!

Shansmith1412 · 30/04/2022 13:31

@allthingssparkly whats your BBT like? Is it still raised?
I keep getting very very mild cramping and the odd lower back pain but it's barely noticeable so I don't want to assume things just yet 😬

How many DPO are you now? Not much longer for you to find out 😁

allthingssparkly · 30/04/2022 15:07

@Shansmith1412 BBT still looking good (I think) I haven't had a drop below my cover line so hopefully it's promising 🤞 AF due 3rd May.

10dpo today 😊

Obsessive testers welcome!
Shansmith1412 · 30/04/2022 22:13

@allthingssparkly looking good! 🤞🏻
I've just been doing some research and I think I might actually be 7dpo today instead of 6. I'm pretty sure I ovulated on Saturday last week instead of Sunday - I had a really sharp twinge on the right side of my pelvic area about 2 hours after I peaked. And it seems to line up with a 28 day cycle that I presume I have?😅
At least it brought my test day 1 day forward😂

Shansmith1412 · 03/05/2022 09:22

@allthingssparkly How are you today? Any signs of AF? x

allthingssparkly · 03/05/2022 09:30

Hey @Shansmith1412 I'm doing ok, apart from feeling super tired 🙈 Caved in and did a clear blue pregnancy test yesterday late morning (12dpo) it was neg, however my BBT is still elevated 🤔 AF due today but no sign.

How are you? X

Obsessive testers welcome!
Shansmith1412 · 03/05/2022 10:04

@allthingssparkly hmmmm, strange.... although I've seen people not get a positive until 14dpo so you should wait a couple of days. She just needs to stay away!

For the past 2 days I've had some mega bloating and gas and tested both yesterday (9dpo) and today (10dpo) and both negative although on todays test the line was more visible but barely there. We will see, still early days yet and af not due till Sunday x

allthingssparkly · 03/05/2022 10:09

@Shansmith1412 I'm taking it as though AF is on the way and if she keeps away then that can only be a bonus ☺️ I didn't realise that the sensitivity of clear blue tests are 25miu whereas the FRER are 6.5miu, should have bought FRER instead 🙈 anyway we shall see what happens in the next day or two.

Ahh fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞 x

curliegirlie · 03/05/2022 10:22

@allthingssparkly definitely go FRER. I think blue dye tests are rubbish unless you’re far enough along for the second line to be completely unambiguous. And, as you’ve said, they tend to be a lot less sensitive than FRERs…Your chart is still looking good with temps that high on AF day!

allthingssparkly · 03/05/2022 10:31

Thank you @curliegirlie I will have to order a FRER. I do think it's bizarre my BBT is still elevated and over the past few days I have had some mild symptoms of which I wouldn't normally have before my period 🤔🤔 unless my body is playing tricks 😩

Shansmith1412 · 03/05/2022 10:44

@allthingssparkly get yourself and FRER!!! And let us know the outcome😁 x

allthingssparkly · 03/05/2022 10:54

@Shansmith1412 I will nip out today and get one 😬😬😬 so nervous to do another test though after seeing the negative result on the CB yesterday! 🙈 x

Shansmith1412 · 03/05/2022 11:03

I'm nervous for you @allthingssparkly 🤣
Even if it does come back negative you can always leave it a couple of days and see what happens, no harm done☺️ x

allthingssparkly · 03/05/2022 11:22

@Shansmith1412 I honestly think it's weird though the fact I've also had some mild symptoms over the past few days which I wouldn't normally 🤔 watch AF come and it's just my body playing damn tricks on me 🤣

Shansmith1412 · 03/05/2022 12:25

I have read it can happen @allthingssparkly 🙈
My best friend who thought she was pregnant last week isn't pregnant after all. It was just AF arriving late 😬
