@Dreamingof3 not yet. I checked my chart on FF this morning. I've got 74 points for my pregnancy monitor and a possibly triphasic chart which I've never had before.
If/when AF shows up it'll sting after seeing those 😅

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 06:55

@Gizzy93 ooh I didn't realise it gave you a score! Is that based on your temperatures?

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 07:28

BFN this morning (13 DPO).
Feeling a bit sad. I was convinced I was out earlier in the month and then past couple of days had really sore boobs which I've never had before so started to think there might be a chance. AF should come on Weds so just waiting now.

@Dreamingof3 keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞

Gizzy93 · 13/06/2022 07:28

@Dreamingof3 and symptoms. If you click on "pregnancy monitor" under your chart and then click "show early pregnancy signs tools" it comes up

Tropicana1 · 13/06/2022 08:28

BFN for me this morning 11dpo on my FRER so feeling pretty out for this month now, will just wait for af now

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 09:56

@Tropicana1 @LucyLoopyLu keeping my fingers crossed you both af doesn't arrive

No af for me yet but I do feel a bit like it's coming 😭

Platinumbonsai · 13/06/2022 12:16

A very very very faint line on a frer this morning (so faint it doesnt show in a picture though definitely there). I've no idea when I ovulated but I think it was around 2 June so 11 dpo. I think if I had conceived this month the line would be stronger so probably an evap.

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 13:06

Thanks for the sympathy guys!
I am trying to tell myself not to be upset, I thought it would be too good to be true to be pregnant so soon.
Why does my body hate me though?! Literally never got sore boobs like this in my life, I have aches even when nothing touching them and weird shooting pains as well - why now?! It's just unfair!
Bring on AF to get it over with 😑

Platinumbonsai · 13/06/2022 14:34

LucyLoopyLu I think our bodies play very odd tricks on us when they know we want to be pregnant.

Did another FRER (I'm a POAS addict) and another definite line, still very very faint but shows up (just) in a picture now which the one this morning didn't. I need to get a digital I know but if it is this faint on a frer no way will it show on a digi.

Here is the pic. It is seriously the mother of all squinters but something is there and showed up in the time frame.

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 14:58

@Platinumbonsai yeah you're so right, once you have something in your mind your body plays tricks on you. Otherwise there would be no placebo effect.

🤞 on your test - I think I can see something very faint. When will you test again?

Platinumbonsai · 13/06/2022 15:46

Not sure when to test again. I have 1 more FRER and 2x lloyd's cheapies (but they're notorious for giving false positives). Ideally should wait til tomorrow for the FRER but that requires willpower which I haven't go! Spent a bloody fortune on tests!

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 16:27

I know what you mean they are so expensive aren't they! I can see why people get the cheap strips, I was actually shocked when I saw the prices in boots!
I got two digital clear blue with the weeks on but will save them till I have a clear line in a cheapy for sure!
I didn't want to get too many tests at once or buy FRERs as I thought I would get too tempted to test early and often and drive myself a bit mad!

Platinumbonsai · 13/06/2022 16:48

I was exactly the same in previous pregnancies and drove myself mad. You'd think I'd have learned by now just to wait and test when my period is late but no.

Tropicana1 · 13/06/2022 16:52

@LucyLoopyLu I had shooting pains in my boobs a few days ago too and aches which I asp never get which is why I was so convinced I'd get a positive test 🤦🏼‍♀️ speaking of poas addiction I just ordered 100 one step pregnancy test strips for £9.99 from Amazon 🤣 I need help

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 17:03

@Platinumbonsai I definitely see something! 🤞🤞

Why is it so tempting to test though, we just drive ourselves mad 😭 I inky have cheapies in at the moment. I think if I don't come on tomorrow I'll amazon some frers, and maybe a digital if I get a positive because I do like to see it in writing!

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 17:04

This isn't a bad price for the weeks ones though

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 17:05

And 4 frer

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 17:13

@Tropicana1 oh no, that's so weird isn't it! I'm glad I'm not the only one that's happened too. They were actually killing me when I was trying to get to sleep last night, never known anything like it - my boobs are tiny and usually never cause any discomfort or issues so I thought it was a sign 😂 oh well

@Dreamingof3 don't tempt me, I've already got 3 amazon parcels on the way and it gets embarrassing how much stuff we have delivered

Dreamingof3 · 13/06/2022 17:31

Well I won't be ordering yet....af just arrived 😔

Ahh well, onto cycle 2 🙌🤞

Platinumbonsai · 13/06/2022 17:42

Ah I'm sorry to hear that Dreaming. Fx for the next cycle.

Theawkwardblonde · 13/06/2022 17:52

@Dreamingof3 sorry to hear that. Fingers crossed for cycle 2!

HippeePrincess · 13/06/2022 18:46

Booo for all the bfn’s and AF’s showing up!

I think @Dreamingof3 asked a good few pages back how preggo ladies are getting on.
I’ve got my booking appointment three weeks today (am 6 weeks now and I called last Monday!) and this is the first appointment slot I could get so anyone holding off after your bfp I wouldn’t!
On the Saturday before that we have an early reassurance scan booked, I’d hoped to have that before having to ask for the time off work but it hasn’t worked out so I’m going to have to tell my boss. I work in healthcare so I perhaps should have disclosed already but really don’t want to say.

I’ve been feeling some general nausea and a sort of stomach flip/drop every so often, it seems to come and go and doesn’t seem to have got any worse over the last 2 weeks so I’m obviously paranoid things aren’t progressing well which is daft as it’s early yet for symptoms.

happytobemrsg · 13/06/2022 19:16

I’m hoping to join you all soon. Planning on TTC #3 as soon as I’ve got some finances taken care of. I’m 34 next month & I currently have 2 DS - 6 & nearly 3.

Cdoc · 13/06/2022 19:29

Hi everyone
I would like to join soon too please! Had medical management for a mmc at 9 weeks on 24th May (first pregnancy).
I passed everything quite quickly and tested negative 2 weeks after the mmc. That was a week ago now and since then I have been peeing on every ovulation stick I have in the desperate hope I will ovulate before AF arrives. Got a flashing smiley on a clear blue advanced stick yesterday and today, but the cheapies still faint and I’ve heard people can get days and days of flashing smileys!
Not really sure what my cycle is doing or if I will ovulate before AF arrives. On cd20 today, if AF does come next week I’ll be tracking straight away again as I am so desperate to be pregnant again 🤞🏼
lots of luck to us all

LucyLoopyLu · 13/06/2022 20:22

@Dreamingof3 oh no :( hope you're OK. Feel your pain. I had some cramps today which is normal for me before AF.

@happytobemrsg welcome to the thread
@cdoc welcome to you too, sorry to hear about your loss 💛

@HippeePrincess thanks for checking in! Good to hear how people are doing. I'm sure it's normal to be second guessing your symptoms but no reason to think its a bad sign that your nausea etc is mild / not getting worse. Would love to hear how you get on with your scans.
