@Tropicana1 i know how you’re feeling! My tests were similar never had a really strong line on the cheapies, and got a CB that said 1-2 weeks. Haven’t tested since as I was freaking out and just told myself whatever happens I am currently pregnant and what will be will be.
That was 2 weeks ago and all going fine so far, going to do another CB digital this week and just hope for 3+ 🤞🏽

@Chocolat this gives me hope! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Feeling a little more reassured this morning

@Tropicana1 🥳 that's good progression! So exciting!!

@Tropicana1 ahh that's looking good! Glad you feel better about it, it's such a scary time!

@Tropicana1 that looks good!!

@MrsCristiano how are you getting on today? X

@Tropicana1 yea not this month for me. Woke up this morning full of energy and started bleeding around 11am. Hope you have a healthy and happy pregnancy ❤️ Xx

@MrsCristiano ah I'm so sorry, that sucks. So horrible after a positive too.

I'm CD28 today (10dpo), my cycles seem to be 31 days now instead of 28 so I'd expect AF to arrive anywhere between tomorrow and Monday.

@MrsCristiano oh no I'm so sorry! So disappointing for you after the line on the frer :( hope you're ok xx

@MamaSJ15 oh getting close, did you say you're going to try to not test until 14dpo?

@MamaSJ15 you're a better woman than me if you can resist the allure of early testing! AF arrived bang on time for me so if I had waited I would never have known. And I wish I didn't know. I'm actually ok. I think after the v faint line and the negative clearblue I knew it wasn't gonna last. So glad to be out of limbo land and move on xx good luck for testing 😘

@MrsCristiano I'm glad you're feeling okay. I was thinking the same thing to be honest, kind of want to wait but at the same time I don't want to get my hopes up to have AF arrive so not sure if I should test before so Im not too disappointed if it isn't my month.

How early did everyone else test?

@MamaSJ15 usually I get a positive about 10 dpo but I have now totally fallen out with the makers of FRER and their lines of fake hope🤨

@MrsCristiano I'm so tempted to test I'm not gonna lie. I want to wait until at least 12dpo which is Saturday. I've now got 3 days off though, so the temptation is only gonna get worse!

@MamaSJ15 i got some super squinty faint lines on 9dpo but to be honest wish I'd had the willpower to wait to today (12dpo) as the line is much clearer and would have saved myself hours of wasted squinting 🤣 don't think I'll ever lose by obsessive early tester ways though haha

@MrsCristiano glad you're feeling ok, know what you mean about is it better to know or not know in these situations! AF for me would be due today or tomorrow and so I still feel a bit like if it arrives will almost be more disappointing now than had I not early tested

@Tropicana1 oh wow I thought you were further on than 12dpo! Will definitely try wait till Saturday 👍

@MamaSJ15 nope still very early! Only have a 12 day luteal phase though which always encourages my early testing

@MrsCristiano I'm so sorry to hear that, sending hugs xx

Hi, please can I join :)

First cycle TTC after coming off the pill. I have been tracking using an app so fairly certain of ovulation (a few days ago) with some ovulation pain. Today I have quite a sharp pain in pelvis are and lower back - anyone know what this could be?

Thank you!

Hello @UGH1 how are you? How many days ago do you think you ovulated? It's so hard to know what these twinges and feelings actually are, a lot of the time it's nothing!

Welcome @UGH1
I get weird twinges all through my cycle so try to ignore them now 🤣 they've never really corresponded with anything and actually this cycle where I had basically nothing was my bfp!

Welcome @UGH1 exciting times!

@MamaSJ15 how are you coping with waiting?!

@Tropicana1 how you feeling today?

@alwaysseeingstars I caved 🙈 completely negative at 11dpo.
How are you doing?

And I've just started with spotting now too, so could be AF arriving or possible few days of spotting before AF (like last cycle!) Will wait and see I suppose 🤷🏼‍♀️

@MamaSJ15 Oh no 😔 sorry that af seems to be arriving! Hope you have a nice distracting weekend planned?

I'm... incredibly impatient! Keep flipping between being so happy then to thinking it's never going to last 😑
