*bfn's 7/8dpo

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 00:10

@Tropicana1 oh plot twist.. I was thinking who's Ben and why's he doing pregnancy testsπŸ˜…

Sunshine0987 · 13/07/2022 07:28

@Charl881 I think I can see a very faint line too! Fingers crossed for you.

@Tropicana1 I also did a cheapie test yesterday which was stupid and obviously BFN as I'm pretty sure I'm only 6-8 DPO. I have bought some FRERs so going to wait until Saturday before doing another one. At least then I'll be within a week of AF due date. Hope you get a line soon!

The wait is agonising!

Charl881 · 13/07/2022 07:53

BFN this morning so not sure if yesterday’s was just an evap or if I’m just testing too early (only 8/9 dpo today). I wish I could just fast forward time to Sunday when AF is due!

Are you testing again today @Tropicana1?

When do you plan to test @Maxime34?

@MrsGrealish Let us know if you do another one as well!

Tropicana1 · 13/07/2022 08:38

@MrsGrealish 🀣🀣 such a random typo - you would think my phone would have saved bfn to my dictionary the amount I've said it!

@Charl881 yup daily testing, bfn for me today too.

Had a huge second rise in bbt today which I'm assuming is the heatwave - it's made my period tracker app think that ovulation is now yesterday 🀣 gone from around 35.9c pre ovulation to 36.5 after ovulation and 36.86 this morning!

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 10:24

@Charl881 bfn for me too. DH off today i really want to do a super sensitive one but he's following me round like a dog on heat πŸ™„ he doesn't like Mumsnet thinks everyone on it is a man?? and is so weird about it.

I'll maybe try and do one later this afternoon but I've got a little brown discharge so it might turn into a super early AF

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 10:29

I feel like I'm having an affair with my phoneπŸ˜‚ Jaysus

Charl881 · 13/07/2022 11:41

@MrsGrealish my DP has no idea how much time I spend on mumsnet (or how much money I spend on tests!)

I’m feeling pretty rubbish today so either I am pregnant or AF is about to make an appearance earlier than planned. Not technically due until Sunday but last cycle AF arrived on CD 24… today I’m CD25 so who knows when it’s truly due.

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 12:14

@Charl881 same! It's easier when he's at work.. Will you do an FRER/ clear blue this week? I've an annoying back cramp so god only knows what's going on. I'm CD22 today but I don't feel pms angry yet

@Tropicana1 yay for temp rise!

Mummyme87 · 13/07/2022 12:36

Just checking back in to see how you’re all doing!
still early days @Charl881 i could definitely see a line on the first test. I don’t trust any now though that aren’t properly pink, too many evaps and indents.

i’m CD5, so AF over and just come off the phone to GP. Going to have thyroid, prolactin and testosterone bloods done on Monday and she’s referring me for an ultrasound to have a look at everything. Once it gets to 12 full months she will refer to fertility clinic and they may offer further tests or suggestions, not any assistance as I have two children already plus raised BMi but possibly some support.

Charl881 · 13/07/2022 13:48

@MrsGrealish it was a FRER I did this morning and stark white! I have a couple more for Thursday and Friday. I would say by then I should be getting a positive if I am. Problem is I didn’t track ovulation so I don’t actually know how many dpo I am.

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 14:33

@Charl881 oh ok I found it hard to completely cut myself off from ttc in all honesty. It's hard after trying so long. So we tried natural family planning but I ovulated later than I realised so DTD maybe 3 days before ovulation.

Tropicana1 · 13/07/2022 14:39

@MrsGrealish haha ah your husband caught me - 38 year old single male here, deeply entrenched in my double life pretending to TTC 🀣

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 14:54

@Tropicana1 🀣🀣🀣 well you gave your real name away last night 'Ben' I'm onto you πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ literally though imagine being a man reading and commenting on ttc threads like DH it wouldn't happen you twit

Charl881 · 13/07/2022 15:05

@MrsGrealish I know what you mean, I wasn’t meant to be trying this week as applying for a new job but I’m not going to find out if I’m successful until after AF so we have it a half hearted go.

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 17:43

@Charl881 bfn for me on an FRER today too. Sneaked off from DH wish I hadn't bothered now 🀣

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 17:44

On the plus side at least the residual hcg is gone 😊

WDWY · 13/07/2022 19:24

🀣 very entertaining chat on here. Is making the TTC process a little lighter, thanks ladies (and Ben!)

Tropicana1 · 13/07/2022 20:04

@MrsGrealish @WDWY hahaha Im going to have to change my name to TropicanaBen after all this 🀣🀣

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 20:46

@WDWY @Tropicana1
🀣🀣 I've never had a positive at 8dpo first ever faint positive at 10dpo and only then it was an absolute squinter

Have u given in to the testing pressure yet? πŸ™ˆ

Also I may warn you if I change my username to another legend it's because DH has sussed it out and HE is being a creeper on ttc threads (I think we had a 'bet you can't guess my username game a week ago' I may have had wine, things are fuzzy πŸ€ͺ

Charl881 · 13/07/2022 22:07

What do you mean another legend, I’m not sure I’d count Jack Grealish as a legend πŸ˜‚

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 22:38

@Charl881 😳 oh come on..his hair for one😍 I'm telling you if I was the actual Mrs G I'd have been preggo months ago... (sorry DH if you are reading) πŸ˜…

Tropicana1 · 13/07/2022 22:40

@MrsGrealish definitely thought Mrs grealish was just your real name 🀣

Yes I have totally lost the plot and done 3 cheapie tests today at 9dpo because I "feel" pregnant (i.e I was lightheaded and off because of the heat, now fine) and despite the fact that with my daughter I had negative frer's until 11dpo - send help πŸ˜‚πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 22:45

I've spent about half an hour inverting pregnancy tests while pretending to watch love island so maybe my sanity could be questioned 🀣

MrsGrealish · 13/07/2022 22:47

@Tropicana1 🀣🀣 right there with you 🀯
