Good luck with testing @SarahShorty @WingingIt09 and hope for you Sarah that it's just still a little early for that BFP

I am now in the TWW. Wasn't going to track but redownloaded my apps to see where I was. Luckily DTD lots this last week without fully knowing it was my fertile week. I have really sore boobs which I usually don't get around ovulation which is strange though

Good morning ladies!!

AF arrived this morning, bang on time! I’m gutted but onto the next cycle, im moving onto cycle 3!
Fingers crossed next month is the month!

I have learnt so much about my cycles in the last three months, so got to hope that we do enough this month!

August will be a brilliant month to get my BFP, it’s the boyfriends birthday just after AF is due next time and it would be the best to have a BFP for that!

Good luck to everybody else! X

I’m 12 dpo and I usually start spotting today and I haven’t… although still could happen! Also dtd this morning and I also usually breakthrough during before my period quite a bit like it triggers it to start and I didn’t really bleed at all…. Is this all a good sign? I haven’t tested since 10dpo and that was a BFN!

If I am I feel bad as had a pretty big drinking night last night as I’m convinced my periods coming!

Period is due tomorrow so going to give it until Wednesday before I spend more money on tests!

@Bananatoast123 fingers crossed AF doesn’t arrive! We are close in cycles if she does turn up, but i hope she doesn’t!!

@EdinburghGirl1 @Dreamingof3 @lj2022 thank you lovelies xx I think I've got the testing bug as I've bought two packs of FRER for delivery tomorrow. It's odd because I've always been more patient and waited for AF. DH was a bit sad this morning but seems hopeful that it's too early. Best of luck to all of you xx

@LauraA31 i know we are cycle buddies! AF is due tomorrow which is CD29 but I’ve been known to go to CD31 so I’m not too hopeful! It feels very much like wishful thinking as I’d have thought my FRER would’ve picked up at 10dpo!!

So I did exactly what I was telling myself not to do and POAS. I blame my massive stash of FRERs from my accidental over order last cycle 🙈 I'm either 8 or 9DPO and I can maybe see something there but equally as likely to be an indent/evap (although came up in 3 minutes). Why do I do this to myself 😅 can't even see it in the picture 🙈

I can see something!

@WingingIt09 it may just be line eyes but I think I see something 🤞🤞

Does anyone feel really unwell around ovulation? I have felt horrific today, hot flushes, headache, dizziness, nausea, sore boobs and exhausted. Ovulation was predicted yesterday and I've read progesterone can cause these thing but I've not had this the last 7 cycles while TTC unless it's just a stronger ovulation with a large amount of a progesterone surge. I didn't know this could happen and just feel awful

@lj2022 I do sometimes. No two cycles are the same.

@SarahShorty honestly it's awful each month when something different happens. I don't like this one at all 😂 if this is a sign of what's to come for an early pregnancy I have the fear

@WingingIt09 can see something not sure about the colour but its is soo early 🤞🤞🤞🤞 your month.

@WingingIt09 I can see something! Fingers crossed for you!

Glad some of you can see it and I'm not just imagining it. Could easily still be an evap so will try not to get my hopes up yet.

@WingingIt09 I'm not sure if I can see something but fingers crossed for you. Maybe another test tomorrow or in 2 days with FMU but it is still early

Hi, I came off Cerezette on 22nd July ttc our first. I was one of the very unusual people who still had "periods" whilst on the pill, god knows what that means but they were thankfully quite light. I had quite a few weeks of cramps and headaches after stopping the pill, I had what I think might be my first proper period on July 15th, it was exactly how my periods were before going on the pill, extremely heavy and painful! I've done a few OPKs (despite saying I wouldn't!) Haven't had a positive one yet but guess that's to be expected. I'm trying to think rational about it and tell myself it's still early days but it's SO difficult! Everyone around me is currently pregnant, I have a chronic autoimmune condition that is under control but obviously it goes through my mind "what if" things won't happen because of it. When we started ttc I was telling myself I'd be chilled and just DTD regularly and not get hung up on everything, yeah that didn't last long! Glad I'm not the only one :)

@WingingIt09 I think I might see a little something there 🤞

Showed DH and he says there's nothing there, and then proceeded to rant that I should have waited, he just doesn't understand the urge to test early!

One thing I have noticed with the FRERs is to not shine a light behind the test window. The injection-molded plastic behind the screen has vertical lines on it and one of those lines will appear as a shadow on the strip right about where a second line would form. So need to be mindful of that.

@SarahShorty never noticed that before 😂😂

@polkadotdasies88 I used to be on cerazette and also had periods on them but I didn't when I took it after having my daughter. I ended up switching to combined pill which I did take before having my daughter as was having issues with cerazette and had a few months of bleeding twice a month. I came off the pill on 14th June, had withdrawal bleed a few days after then first proper period 11th July so this will be first proper cycle. Hopefully you get a positive OPK soon but if your period was 15th July you're only CD10 today so give it a bit more time. I know what you mean about saying you'll try to relax and just see how it goes. I said I'd try that too but I'm a bit of a control freak so constantly thinking about it 😂

@WingingIt09 I'm convinced I can see something vvvf there! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I'm technically 6 weeks today. Bloating has started, sore boobs and night time nausea 😵

We move this week so need to balance between getting stuff done and not over doing it...whilst keeping it from my family 😂😅

@Dreamingof3🤞🏻I've resisted temptation to test this morning so far 😂 aiming to wait till tomorrow so that hopefully there will an a clear line. Just need to avoid temptation for the rest of the day now 😂 good luck with the move! Hopefully it all goes smoothly x
