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 will splash out on a branded one if I am late. I have 35677644 of those little buggers to pee on 😬

Shansmith1412 · 12/05/2022 22:12

Hope all you ladies are doing good😊

Thank you @Seajelly4life I never thought I'd get a BFP so quick! 4 weeks and 5 days today 🥺
I have the smallest bump ever... either that or its the chicken burger and curly fries I had for my dinner 🤣

How are you @allthingssparkly ? Sorry for being awfully quiet, im in the middle of changing my doctors. Midwife said I was out of catchment area so I'm having to move and get everything settled before 8 weeks 😣

My mum texts me every day saying "Say hello to baby 👋🏻" and my dad gave me a kiss on the cheek which was the equivalent to a Paul Hollywood handshake if you've ever watched bake off!🤣

Shansmith1412 · 12/05/2022 22:13

Also, congratulations to all the ladies with BFPs !!! 🎉🎉 I still look at mine everyday 🤣

i can’t figure out if this is a faint line or an evap line and i’ve been trying to figure out who to ask so i thought i’d try here

Hello @Shansmith1412 I'm doing okay, been better. Had some bloods done on Monday and my doctor phoned yesterday to say I have really low iron levels and is probably a contributing factor as to why I have felt like I have, I'm literally exhausted all the time and feeling nauseous. The last time I have ever had low iron was when I was pregnant and becuase my period this month was only 3 days and not 3 days of full red blood she wants me to repeat a pregnancy test today 😬 nervous doesn't even come close, however I have no doubt it will be negative knowing me 🙈

I hope you manage to get sorted with the change of doctors and that pregnancy is going well so far ☺️

Hey ladies! I'm back. Congratulations for those who have had positive tests🥰

After a month or two break we have started to TTC again.

I am 7dpo today, I did test last night 🤦‍♀️BFN of course.
Just ordered some more ICs!

McConkeysPlate · 15/05/2022 20:56

Good luck @ThisOneIsMine x

Lucy123xxxxx · 16/05/2022 14:08

Hi all! For those of you who test day 10+ After ovulation (so before AF) do you use normal pregnancy tests or the early ones??

McConkeysPlate · 16/05/2022 15:10

@Lucy123xxxxx
I had a belter of an evap on these. Photo in post above. Not had a problem before x

McConkeysPlate · 16/05/2022 16:56

Holy shitballs

That's not an evap is it?

ThisOneIsMine · 17/05/2022 18:33

Sorry @mcCockneysPlate not sure how to reply to the actual post 😅

@mcConkey clearly I'm also rubbish at tagging 🙈

McConkeysPlate · 17/05/2022 23:18

@ThisOneIsMine 🤣🤣🤣
I think it’s probably a freak line 🤷‍♀️

It looks positive to me! 🤞Did it show up within the time frame?

McConkeysPlate · 18/05/2022 01:30

@ThisOneIsMine
it did, I was shocked. Re tested today but there is only a shadow.

allthingssparkly · 18/05/2022 08:07

Heyy @Shansmith1412 how are you doing? I can't believe I'm CD14 of my cycle it seems to be flying by 😬 trying to dtd every other day this week (currently in my FW) 🤞 x

Shansmith1412 · 18/05/2022 10:07

Hey! @allthingssparkly I'm doing good thank you, got my first midwife appointment on 30th and I'm a little nervous, I still don't feel pregnant at all. I've hardly had any symptoms 🙈

Good luck this week! I managed to get 3 out of my 6 fertile days (day 1 of FW, day of OV and day after - which I thought wasn't going to be enough).

How have you been feeling this cycle? It really does seem to have flown 🥴 x

allthingssparkly · 18/05/2022 10:14

Ahh I really hope it goes well for you @Shansmith1412 how many weeks are you now?🤞

Thank you, so far we've done two of my days in the fertile window (CD11 & CD13)

That's reassuring you only did 3 out of the 6 days and concieved.

I'm feeling the pressure now though as I want it to happen 😩 but don't know if we should be DTD every day or just stick with every other. I don't want OH to feel under pressure either as it's so easy to feel that way when you only have a small window of time for concieving!

Last cycle I'm pretty certain I ovulated on CD16, as that's when I got my BBT spike, Peak OPK I got on CD14.

I need to not stress 🙈🙈🙈

gianaInfertilitySucks · 18/05/2022 10:29

I tested today, I don't know why I did, as we're on a waiting list for ivf. Nothing here...

Shansmith1412 · 18/05/2022 10:39

@allthingssparkly my OH felt pressured during my FW and that's why he felt like "he was on a rota". It can be difficult at times but it's something that you both want and they need to understand that there is only a short window to do so🤷‍♀️. To be honest I felt under pressure just iniating dtd and trying to explain that "this is the best time". I feel lucky that I conceived on my 1st month because I don't know how I would have been able to cope having to try again🙈

Have you started using opks or are you just going with the flow this time?

I'm 5+4 today so I'm really early on - it's going to be a long ride for me😅 x
