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!

got home, did another IC on a literal 20 minute hold - can anyone see anything? I have an FRER to do this evening on a longer hold x

Obsessive testers welcome!
BuchananBaby · 20/02/2022 16:08

@ElleBelleLou there's absolutely something there. You need to do a FRER ASAP and let us know ❤

TTCBABYNO2xx · 20/02/2022 19:59

@ElleBelleLou i can see a line on the cheapie one you did for sure 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Charl881 · 20/02/2022 21:29

@ElleBelleLou definitely a line on both, let us know the frer results

arianasky · 20/02/2022 21:32

Hello all, joining even though I'm only CD7 because I am literally a POAS addict 🙈 I normally test from 8dpo and have got a positive twice at that stage. I've unfortunately had 4 losses so no children but I do love to see line progression etc so hope you don't mind me joining?

@ElleBelleLou I could see a line without zooming and squinting on those tests 🎉

BuchananBaby · 20/02/2022 21:42

@arianasky welcome 🥰, I am so sorry for your losses it's such an awful thing to go through! Unfortunately I had an early loss last month.

I do love a look at a positive pregnancy test so fingers crossed we all get bfp's this month 😁

MiaKay · 20/02/2022 22:00

@arianasky so sorry for your losses... but I hope you'll have your BFP this month.

It's great we keep each other company during the TWW. I don't feel so optimistic about my test tomorrow, so wish me luck -- and next time I promise I'll lock away my tests until I'm actually late (... and we all laughed at that)

MiaKay · 20/02/2022 22:02

Oh and @ElleBelleLou I see the line too! It's so exciting! If you test with a FRER let us know.

@MiaKay I said I wouldn't test until Tuesday and what a lie that was 🙈 we can all laugh about it together 😂. My IC's said they were delivered earlier and they weren't! Nearly had a breakdown until the neighbours chapped the door 😂

MiaKay · 20/02/2022 22:42

@BuchananBaby lol testers are gonna test! I know, you never test on the day you're planning to test, unless that day is tomorrow.

By the way, I just had such a big nausea wave that I got dizzy. If I'm not pregnant, I just hope I'm not dying. If that's the case, it was nice meeting you all.

Charl881 · 20/02/2022 23:03

@MiaKay I always think the same when I symptom spot, I’m like omg if I’m not pregnant what’s wrong with me. Then AF arrives and it starts all over again. Doesn’t help my son has brought home every bug possible from nursery since September and I’ve caught them all so I’m always mixing up illness with pregnancy symptoms.

How many dpo are you now? Good luck for your test tomorrow! I was going to wait until Wednesday but probably won’t. So now I’m saying I’ll just use internet cheapies until Wednesday.

MiaKay · 20/02/2022 23:10

@Charl881 I'm at 14 DPO, AF is due tomorrow. I know, it could be anything. My son is not old enough to bring bugs from school etc, but still... My mom says it's just stress. Who knows? She might be right.

OP posts:
BuchananBaby · 20/02/2022 23:44

@MiaKay totally agree with the symptoms. Tonight I'm lying having a cry to myself over nothing (I'm not even sad) wondering to myself if I'm not pregnant am I becoming an emotional person 🙈😂.

@Charl881 IC's don't count 😜

MiaKay · 21/02/2022 04:04

Af due today (not yet, but I guess it's expected) so it should be visible by now. I suppose it's a no for me on this cycle and I should see a doctor about my stomach if it continues.

Morning everyone, I took the FRER last night on a 1.5 hour hold and the Clearblue this morning with FMU, I think I'm still in shock! I'm 11DPO today, AF due in 5 days and here's my BFP!

Congratulations, @ElleBelleLou! Nothing like a digital to make it real!

Charl881 · 21/02/2022 07:53

@ElleBelleLou congratulations! Such lovely news

stuntbubbles · 21/02/2022 07:53

I’ve been getting “too faint for a camera or a normal person to see” shadows on one step since 7dpo but last night I dipped one in water as a control and it’s stark white, but the faint lines aren’t getting any darker. Wondering if it’s an age/edging towards perimenopause thing which I’ve read about, where you always slightly turn a test. ☹️

Anyway, BFN on one step and Sainsbury’s at 10dpo. Really thought I’d done it this month with the backache and cramping at 7/8dpo! STUPID WOMB

MiaKay · 21/02/2022 08:44

@ElleBelleLou congratulations! ❤️❤️❤️ Sprinkle some babydust our way!

Huffle · 21/02/2022 09:12

Congrats @ElleBelleLou thats fantastic news!!

Lines still faint for me at 13dpo so am still thinking chemical. Am normally such an optimist but not feeling it this time

BuchananBaby · 21/02/2022 09:13

@ElleBelleLou congratulations 🥳❤

@MiaKay and @stuntbubbles so sorry about your BFN's. I got a BFN this morning too. So glad we're all in this together! My best friend is ttc too but she has unbelievable willpower and doesn't test unless af is late! I wish I was that person

arianasky · 21/02/2022 09:18

Thank you ladies 💕 praying for my rainbow and everyone else too 🙏🏻🌈

@ElleBelleLou congratulations 🎉

Cruzxo · 21/02/2022 09:20

I know I’m only 8dpo but I can defo see a line? Is that an evap??

Obsessive testers welcome!
Charl881 · 21/02/2022 09:28

@Cruzxo there is definitely a line there! It’s difficult to tell if it’s an evap. It doesn’t look like there is really any colour but could just be because you’re super early! Hopefully if you test tomorrow or Wednesday you’ll have a clearer idea but I’m hopeful for you, good luck!

Charl881 · 21/02/2022 09:29

@stuntbubbles it’s so early for you still, I’d defo be tempted to try a FRER tomorrow if you’ve been getting faint lines on a one step!
