Obsessive testers welcome!

[MiaKay]

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!

Thank you @Charl881. I am 9dpo today but didn’t have any tests this morning (the 8dpo test was yesterdays). Stupidly I tested at 7DPO and 8dpo seems to be very slightly darker. This is my 7DPO one x

@Cruzxo I see it!

@BuchananBaby my best friend is exactly the same! She's super patient and calm. Don't worry, we will all get our BFPs

@Charl881 I just did a FRER with FMU and it’s whiter than snow — the one step lines aren’t anything I haven’t had in previous BFN months, I think they always have a shadow for me.

Still, there’s always tomorrow to pee my money down the loo!

@MiaKay I totally forgot how all consuming ttc is. I have just realised it's my daughters first birthday in 2 weeks and I am so not prepared!

@stuntbubbles it's like peeing on £5's isn't it 😂

@BuchananBaby awww happy birthday to the little fairy!

@stuntbubbles every time I swear I’m not getting to spend a fortune weeing on sticks this month and I always cave

I’ve done a FRER about 1pm after a 5 hour hold. Is this line any darker or 😩

@Cruzxo I can only just see it so I wouldn’t say it’s any darker but it is still there. I imagine it wouldn’t get much darker until around 11dpo.

@BuchananBaby @Charl881 I have no self control so don’t have the expensive tests in the house, but don’t trust the cheap sticks. So then I go out and buy expensive tests... “I’ll just do one today and if it’s BFN I’ll wait for AF” is a lie I tell myself about every half an hour – wfh is terrible, I swear if I went back to the office I wouldn’t do half so many tests!

@stuntbubbles that is so true! It’s hard not to when they’re just sitting upstairs. Then I think I won’t bother wasting money and a FRER so I get some Tesco ones or whatever but then don’t trust them and end up ordering FRERs anyway 😂

@stuntbubbles and @Charl881, Same thing here! Cheapies are only for when it's not time to test and you know it, but you can't help testing anyway 😆

Has anyone tried those ones off Amazon called ‘one step ultra early’? They’re not the strip ones they come in a plastic holder thing in a blue wrapper. I’ve got some (before I bankrupt myself with frers) and I’m getting some fairly dark lines and some barely visible. I know I really need to not test for a couple of days and then see but I can’t 🤣 90% sure this a chemical as frer’s not getting darker (not lighter either though). 13dpo today and AF was due today. Not sign of it but no preg symptoms either 🤷‍♀️

@Huffle I’ve got some for this cycle but haven’t used them before and only 8dpo. I’ll let you know how I get on with them!

@Huffle oh just re read, mine are one step ultra early but the strip ones

So glad I found this thread! I thought I was the only obsessive tester. We're ttc no. 2. My period only returned this month after breastfeeding my first. I know I might not have even ovulated but I'm still testing like a crazy person. I think I'm 7dpo if my cycles are the same as before which they probably aren't.
The last few months I've been testing regularly incase I caught before my first period. Honestly, I have a problem! It's great to see some bfps here.

@User65412 we are more or less the same! My period returned about 3 months ago and I also tested regularly even before that, just in case. My circle is pretty regular, maybe a few days off each time. The second time it was 2 days late, the 3rd one about 3 days earlier. This time I guess it's going to be late again, it was due today but it never came and it was a BFN. (I've been nauseous and dizzy, though, and that hasn't stopped, but hormones must have something to do with that.)

Hey @miattc2
It's so hard isn't it. I'm so grateful for my little one but desperate for another.
I'm worried that I fed her more over the last couple of weeks and that maybe that period was just a one off after I returned to work. I have no symtoms at all except really uncomfortable nipples when feeding. Which is weird as I've never had that before. Fingers crossed for you this month or one month very soon!

@User65412 I know how that feels! I would love my little one to have a sibling! I've had that worry too at times, but for some reason it never affected my period. I still ovulated etc.

Joining to mark my place as I'm getting a test later on today. I'm currently day 20 of a 21-25 day cycle, ovulation was around day 8 according to the Flo app.

@trying36 good luck and babydust! ❤️

Hello joining this thread as I too am an obsessive tester! Tested today on IC at 9PDO and obv BFN. Anyone had that this early then gone onto get a BFP?

This is TTC 2 but am more obsessive about it this time round and I don't know why

I am very much an obsessive tester 😂 Has anyone had a line like this before that turned into a BFP? :/ I’m anything from 11-13 dpo and it came up within five minutes.

@thebirdinthecave I think I can see something but the pic is quite fuzzy for me - might just be my phone? A line is a line as they say though so fingers crossed for you!

@User65412 It's my phone I think, the camera is rubbish x__x I'm probably clutching at straws here :/ I can see the line in real life but it is super faint.
