TTC March 2023 babies 🌸🌷🌿🐇🐣

Here’s hoping!

Stupidly looked at my Tesco test from earlier when I went to bed and it’s got a very thick blue line but four hours old so definitely can’t be counted. These Tesco tests are cruel, I knew there was a reason I don’t buy them! As obviously even though it’s hours past the time it’s still giving me a glimmer of hope.

And yes do it @MrsGrealish! although hope that the sickness passes soon no matter what is causing it.

@Charl881 oh my word!!!! Look at that thick line..do the blue dye ones give a line that thick after the time limit??

And yes I think I just might..

@MrsGrealish so because I’m really sad I’ve found pics of when I did a Tesco test before and it showed positive after the time limit and it was a vvv skinny line, not like this. I’m hoping it means something while still fully expecting AF first thing tomorrow morning. A FRER tomorrow should tell if AF hasn’t arrived so not long for me to wait I guess.

Do it….

@Charl881 And no line or at least not one visible in this lighting 😭 now I'm depressed. I'll try and take a pic but DH has fallen asleep in the bath 😂😂 I can hear him snoring (good lights in there)

@Charl881 and I thought the evap blue line tests were skinny not chunky monsters..excited for your tests. I probably have covid 🙄

@Charl881 ooh that looks promising!!

@MrsGrealish ahh sorry no line 😭 still early days PO though and not FMU so still got my hopes for you too

@Tropicana1 the first test I'll be doing tomorrow is a lateral flow. Here's my no line test. Just went with the original picture coz of time limits and that 😞

@MrsGrealish oh these negative tests are hard 😟 sorry for yours! Hope your LF tomorrow is negative too though (the only good kind of negative test!) xx

@Tropicana1 it sucks no way will I be attempting a digital tomorrow..I thought I was 11dpo today but looked at app and only 10 so that made me feel slightly better

@Charl881 that first photo looks positive never mind the 4 hr later one. Good luck lady 🤞🤞

Ahhh positive this morning on my cheapie at 14DPO! I'm just in shock and woke DH at 5am. Good luck to everyone waiting and testing, I have everything crossed for you!

@WDWY congratulations!! Great lines.

Negative for me this morning. I’ll try with a FRER later but losing hope! Even with my chemicals I was getting lines by now.

@WDWY congratulations! Great line there.

I am still driving myself crazy. Lines don't seem to be as dark as I would have expected for 13dpo. Although I'm sure implantation only occurred at 8dpo so possibly still a bit early.

Got some digitals arriving today so perhaps that will tell us once and for all.

What do you ladies think?

@hipposinacircle They do look very faint for 13 dpo to be honest and not like they’ve progressed much… but how sure are you of ovulation? Also if you’re still getting lines and not bleeding then I wouldn’t worry too much. With my chemicals I started bleeding very soon after a faint line.

They do seem very faint Hippo and I hate to say I had a horrible evap on my FRER last month (attached). Do you buy yours from Amazon? I’ve read the Amazon tests are very prone to evaps whereas the shop bought tests aren’t.

Oh really?? @Wouldloveanother
Yes I have been getting them from Amazon so that's good to know for future. Thank you

Covid positive. Still no AF yet but negative digital

@WDWY big congratulations!!

@WDWY ah amazing congratulations!

@hipposinacircle sorry to say that I'd be worried about the lack of progression too - should see darkening over the 48hr period for sure.

@Charl881 sorry for the bfn x

@MrsGrealish oh no you've got covid! Fingers crossed af stays away though

Temp dropped below baseline this morning and af has just shown up so I'm out, officially CD1 and an annoyingly shorter LP again this month possibly because of my very late ovulation 😭

I’m not using FRERs any more Ive decided - they’re too expensive, tempt me to test early and then I feel even worse when it’s negative because I’ve peed on a tenner! I’m adamant I’m going to wait for missed period and then test with a regular boots or Superdrug one. Maybe I’m just bitter because I’ve had so many negative FRERs!

Oh no guys, lots of bad news here. can’t believe you have covid @MrsGrealish tbats the wrong type of second line. Feel better soon.

My FRERs arrived and a BFN so pretty sure it was just early spotting and AF will arrive bang on time tomorrow. Only good news for me with that is that at least my cycles would be back to their normal length.

There is an April group set up @Tropicana1 that I’m already lurking on.

@Charl881 thanks lovely I knew something was up. Still no AF or even AF pains but bfn already and covid it's not looking hopeful. My boss rang I burst into tears mortified 😭

It’s so frustrating isn’t it. The amount of times I thought I was pregnant over the winter only to realise it was another bug picked up from DS. Such a double whammy. Guessing covid could also mess your cycles about too?

With covid and miscarriage I give up on cycles now

Yeah understandable, so frustrating though when AF won’t show if it’s any other reason than being pregnant.

I stupidly looked back at my FRER about an hour after doing it and it has a clear line which is ever so slightly pink at the top and bottom 🙈 I know it doesn’t count after the time but none of my others this week have done this.
