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!

@McConkeysPlate they're the same tests I use and I'm sure I can see the little shadow I saw on mine at 7DPO! x

MiaTTC2 · 07/05/2022 19:22

@ElleBelleLou I can see the line!! I hope it gets darker. Yayyy!!

@Shansmith1412 I'm everything will go smoothly with your pregnancy! How are the symptoms going?

@Rebekah77 I know, you can't trust blue die tests, but there's no denying that there is a line there! Just confirm with a pink dye.

@McConkeysPlate you are right at home! I know, it's so exciting spotting lines on tests (which is why we are obsessed with that lol!)

I've already started testing for LH and it seems I'm quite close to ovulation. I don't know what will happen in this cycle, I'm going to be a godmother next Sunday and the boy is about 2 years old and quite heavy! Last time I got a BFP it disappeared the next day. At the time I thought I had a faulty test, but my doctor said it was probably a chemical. I hope it doesn't happen again. Lifting weights is not the best idea, but I don't really have a choice at the moment.

McConkeysPlate · 07/05/2022 19:23

@ElleBelleLou , I think it’s probably just a shadow. But regardless I will keep testing daily x

Rebekah77 · 07/05/2022 19:47

Thank you guys , after ten years of infertility I just can’t believe it .. too scared to do a pink dye ! Also in so much pain just thinking ugh another chemical!

assume it’s just endo pain but won’t take painkillers now until I know for sure

McConkeysPlate · 07/05/2022 19:59

@Rebekah77
i really hopes this works out for you x

Organictangerine · 07/05/2022 20:14

can I join ladies? 😀

CD17, OPK positive on CD11, so should be about 5dpo. Been having a weird squeezing feeling in my left ovary & the slight dizziness I had before finding out I was pregnant with DD.

Aiming to hold off testing until 12dpo (next weekend) and use a proper shop bought test, but I will switch on my line eyes here in the meantime!

Rebekah77 · 06/05/2022 17:45

Know blue dye are notorious , waiting for fertility referral atm . Used progesterone this month light bleed but been being sick so I tested .. even more confused now!

That looks positive to me! Can you double check with a FRER or something else?

Rebekah77 · 07/05/2022 20:34

I’m building up the courage to retest Monday ! Thank you

feel like poop lol duvet day for me tomorrow

Daisy2206 · 07/05/2022 23:24

Period is one day late, took a clear blue earlier, faint pos..took a cb digital and it said "not pregnant" ...waited 5 hours to wee and got this on a normal clear blue... thoughts please?

Obsessive testers welcome!
Organictangerine · 08/05/2022 07:31

That’s positive daisy! 😍The digitals always take a bit longer to go positive.

Daisy2206 · 08/05/2022 07:38

@Organictangerine eeek! Exciting times.
I did a tesco cheap one today with FMU.
Faint positive again. Will leave it a few days before doing FRER I expect 🤣🤣🤣🤣 why can't I stop peeing on a stick?!

Obsessive testers welcome!
Organictangerine · 08/05/2022 07:50

I don’t think that’s faint daisy, I think if you did a FRER now you would get a nice line! Congratulations!!

Daisy2206 · 08/05/2022 07:57

@Organictangerine heheh they haven't arrived yet, but don't tempt me 🤣🤣
Thank you! 🥰 I did a tesco one yesterday and wasn't sure if I could see a line or not, so it's reassuring that today, it's definitely visible without having to squint or hold up to the light.

Rebekah77 · 08/05/2022 08:28

@Organictangerine they both look nice and clear . Fab!

im procrastinating until tomorrow

Organictangerine · 08/05/2022 08:31

youre making me want to test now at 6dpo!! Got to hold out til the magic 12!!! Will order my FRERs today…

Daisy2206 · 08/05/2022 08:40

@Rebekah77 exciting times for you, fingers crossed!

@Organictangerine It's so hard to wait isn't it! I did some tests a few days before period was due and there wasn't really anything there. I was "apparently" due on, on Friday. I say apparently because my periods are a bit iffy, only just started to regulate a little the last 3 months and have been between 24 and 26 days. But I had 0 signs of it showing Friday or yesterday, hence the frequent testing 🤣

Rebekah77 · 08/05/2022 08:45

@Daisy2206 looks goood .. making me think maybe blue dye can be trusted !! Yours look fab

thanks @Organictangerine waiting is defo hard

feel so sick just staying on sofa today , even my other half’s shower gel makes me sick !

Shansmith1412 · 08/05/2022 09:12

@allthingssparkly thats bizzare🤔 saying that my last AF only lasted 2 days which I thought was abnormal but its quite normal 😅 have you done any opk tests or pregnancy tests since?

@MiaTTC2 funnily enough I've had no symptoms yet apart from the odd mild cramping. I don't even feel pregnant 🙈 I did another test on Friday and the kine was darker there is no signs of AF this weekend so it all feels weird. I'm tempted to do another cheapie today just to make sure I am😂

Here is the comparison to Thursday and Friday, both FMU x

Obsessive testers welcome!
allthingssparkly · 08/05/2022 16:23

Seems to have completely finished now @Shansmith1412 🤷 not complaining though 🤣 No I haven't done any tests and I'm not sure whether to do without BBT/OPK's this cycle. I can't make my mind up. I very much doubt that my ovulation window will differ much from the last. So we may just have to crack on in my FW which will be around 17th-20th May 🙈🙈

Daisy2206 · 08/05/2022 17:44

@Rebekah77 I confirmed it with a pink dye this evening! Will leave it until Tues/weds and use last pink dye to confirm it's getting darker. Then I think it'll sink in!

Obsessive testers welcome!
MiaTTC2 · 08/05/2022 20:06

@Shansmith1412 that's exactly how I felt at the beginning of my first pregnancy. I also felt exhausted, apart from being late, which was what made me test back then. Nausea and dizziness started a little later on, on week 7.

ElleBelleLou · 09/05/2022 07:41

Pretty sure I'm out! Was so confident after my FRER at 8DPO but this is my 10DPO test (and I was getting good positives on these tests from 8DPO last time I conceived), and on closer inspection the tests seem to have a line on before they're even taken so oh well. Onto the next cycle!

I’m having the same dizziness I had in the 2ww with my daughter which is giving me hope - but also trying to stay realistic 🤞🏻 its quite distinctive though only when I stand up.

7dpo… 5 days to test day….

Congrats to the BFPs 💖 💙

JaneGnR88 · 09/05/2022 08:28

I‘m sorry @ElleBelleLou its so frustrating isn’t it! You’re not out until your AF comes (if you’re regular that is, not like me 😅)
Did you test at different times? It’s still so early they could be super sensitive to the time of day and your hold? Xx

Seajelly4life · 09/05/2022 16:01

@Shansmith1412 I have carried on watching this thread in the hope I would see you get your BFP! Massive congratulations! Hope everything goes amazingly for you!
