Is this the start of BFP?

[Salcal]

Has anyone had similar on one step tests?

Both tests taken today with FMU. Shadows/vvvfl visible within timeframe, more obvious now dried but for sure could be indents as I know these tests can be dodgy.

Same tests in pack I got were all stark white until today. AF either one day late or due in 4 days (not sure when ovulated, been a weird cycle!)

Thanks

Loading... 🤣

Last week I thought I had an indents like yours above, FRER negative (cycle no. 6 for baby no. 3- first 2 were not even tried for so was giving up hope!!)
AF then started but abruptly stopped on day , so tested this morning. BFO 15DPO. Hopefully I've just had implantation bleeding.

Your not out yet OP xxx

@Angie2018 yes I shall do!! BFN on digital tonight so likely out this month and a few dodgy tests/indents/evaps I reckon!

It's so tricky isn't it!! I wish our bodies had a screen on them telling us exactly what is going on 🤣

I really hope it doesn't come, you deserve that BFP and it is so wanted!!

Haha fingers crossed for implantation spotting, a few cramps, very obvious symptoms and then an early BFP for you 🤣

@TheCuriouscakedecorator honestly they must look at us and think what on earth is going on 😂

@Wonderwheremykeysare omg congratulations!! ✨ so pleased for you!! And that gives me hope ❤️ thank you! The latest point I likely ovulated would indicate I'm likely 13dpo, not out til AF makes her arrival though as you said! Xx

@Salcal ah so sorry it's negative! But the digitals are not as sensitive as the FRERs or the early clear blue ones so I reckon you still need to hang on a bit longer!! I am still hoping your BFP is on its way!!

I know!! It's the waiting around that's annoying! Like, if my body said, you aren't pregnant but you need to wait 4 weeks to try again it would feel better. I just feel like an idiot trying to eat decent foods and not have a drink at all and not go on mad horse rides if I'm not pregnant 🤣

Ah thanks so much!! I hope Monday - Wednesday implantation shows 🙈🙈 I am so ready for this BFP now... xx

You aren't out til Aunt Flo doth show!!

@Littlebirdyouaresosweet so true! Got to keep reminding myself!

@TheCuriouscakedecorator it's been a rollercoaster of a day!!

@Angie2018 thank you! feeling okay at the minute just would rather know one way or another, so frustrating.
For sure! It's such hard work from all angles - plus suspicious looks from family/friends when turning down wine is stressful 🤣

Crossing fingers toes and everything that will cross 🤞🏼 keep us posted!

Anyone else lurking is welcome to post their maybe BFP's or BFPs also!! Gives me hope ✨

Will have to start monitoring OPK and BBT next cycle as I'm such a scatter brain 😂 had a look on my app and I've got ??ovulation?? Written on the bloody 18th as well as the 12th 🤦🏼‍♀️
So either potentially 13dpo or 7dpo, definitely holding off on testing until next weekend

@Salcal I am glad you feel ok! I know exactly what you mean, it's like I'd rather know even if it's a BFN so that you can mentally get past it and move on! And also have the glass of wine or do whatever you want. And yeah I feel the same friend sir family don't get it when you say you aren't drinking.... and their minds will always head to "is she pregnant" and it's always worse when you aren't pregnant but are trying!!

Will absolutely stay in touch!! X

@Salcal ahhhh so that would explain the either vvvvvv faint lines / BFN if you are only 7dpo!!

@Angie2018 yeah exactly can focus on other things rather than constantly thinking "is there life growing in me right now?" And "I should do another test, just incase"

Yeah exactly!! Not out til you're out! Might be clutching at straws at this point now though 😂

How you feeling today??

@Salcal it's really hard!! I am only 4dpo and just want next week to be here so I can just have some sort of signs 😂😂

Not necessarily at 7dpo... at 13dpo you would like to think an FRER would show positive by then but if you aren't sure on ovulation then 7dpo you most certainly are so early it's too hard to know.

I am ok today thank you... feeling hopeful!! Praying I am preggars 🤣🤣

How are you??

@Angie2018 don't worry it's nearly Monday already!! 🤣

Ahh yes that's very true, thank you!! No signs of AF as of yet either 🤞🏼 a few sharp twinges in a nipple and lots of cm!

Praying so hard for you!! March 2023!!

Yes all good thanks, had a nice day visiting family and now just relaxing and trying not to buy more tests 🤣

@Salcal haha you read my mind 🤣🤣 I'm like ok so when I wake up it's 5dpo and this is nearing implantation territory 🙈

I have had very mild cramps today, only for about 10 mins this evening. Probably unrelated though as it's too early!!

I am praying AF doesn't come for you!! Sharp nipple twinges and lots of CM is a good sign.

Glad you had a nice day! I've had a mani pedi today so that was nice!!

Going to chill tomorrow as I feel shattered x

How many of you are taking tests in the next couple of days?

I will be in 5 days on Friday!!

@Angie2018 so close! I do find it crazy how much our bodies do "behind the scenes" also so crazy how some people have signs of implantation and others don't etc - when I had my BFP a few years ago I didn't have any "typical" signs and no signs of implantation either!

Could be unrelated but could be your body gearing up!! 🤞🏼

Boobs also feel a bit more noticeable but not sore, could be my mind playing tricks 🤣

Ooh lovely - you deserve a treat 🥰 bubble bath and a film/music usually are the perfect wind-down treatment also!

Good plan, is it just me or do the weeks feel so busy at the minute! I'm currently watching one of my cats do extreme zoomies around the house 🤣

@confusedbythis1 I'll probably be taking more tests, I've ordered some more easy@home cheapies and going to wait until I see something worth doing an frer for

@Salcal I know right!! Going to try to get a nap and watch a film today as I am so tired. Woke up early!!

I agree it's highly likely that we won't feel a thing until AF due anyway... I am crazy trying to find PMS symptoms, so far can't find....Hoping they don't come!!

Have you tested again today? Boob soreness could be a thing! Hopefully it is!!

Ah I love cats I have two! And two puppies 😍

What you up to today?

@Angie2018 oh bless you a nap is definitely needed then. Do you have a garden you can chill in as well? I always feel better when I sit out in the sun for a bit!

Yep exactly!! Do you normally get long periods of PMS symptoms? My OH and I would say "it must be getting towards the 10 days of hell" leading up to my AF 🤣 praying for you that they don't come xx

Yep you know me haha! BFN, seeing slight shadows but I think I just have horrific line eyes now!

Oh wow how lovely! How old are your cats? Love a house full of pets 🥰 I've attached my crazy two below

Most likely just laundry and catching up on work bits ready for the new week, looking forward to some annual leave beginning of July!

@Salcal still not had a nap, been looking after my puppy who is recovering from surgery but will chill soon when she sleeps. We do have a garden and it's always nice and sunny, we have a hot tub too but I don't think it's recommended during pregnancy or early pregnancy so I can't use it unless it's when AF comes!

Haha sounds like we are the same! Yep my OH says exactly the same too 🤣 I normally do get very sore boobs after ovulation about 10-7 days before AF, then I get ratty and normally get a headache like a day or two before AF. I get pains in my cervix about 5 days before AF & I also get horrible cramps the day AF starts!

I hope they don't come for us both!!

My cats are 6 now and my puppies are 6.5 months! It's not bloody letting me add photos?

Oh lovely annual leave sounds good!!

X

@Angie2018 oh bless her - I hated seeing my cats uncomfortable following their spaying! Ooh lovely, nice lazy Sunday. I guess you can add that to the list of things you could do if not pregnant (with the hope that it won't be in use for the next 9mnths!!)

Glad to hear it's a universal issue 🤣 poor OH's! I totally feel you with being ratty and sore boobs, tolerance just gets lower as AF gets closer 😂 the cervix pains sound horrible! I tend to get backache/cramps on the day of AF, light flow and then no pain after but heavy flow day 2.

They had better not come!! Manifesting ✨

Aww what do the cats make of your pups? Shame you can't attach any pics! My two are menaces 24/7 😂

Yes looking forward to it! Then moving house in a couple of months, would love to know there will be a need to decorate the second bedroom! 🤞🏼

@Salcal it's awful seeing animals in pain or suffering it's just so sad! Haha true if AF comes next weekend I defo can use the hot tub! Fingers crossed AF isn't making an appearance for a very long time 🥰

Yep totally a universal issue... I mean he would love to revel in the fact he has it harder than any other bloke being with me because I am the biggest pain in the arse before AF but i regulating remind him I am not exclusive in my shittiness and he should suck it up like the rest of blokes in the world 🤣🤣

The cervix pains almost feel like it's getting ready to move and open for AF. It's weird. It's not overly bad, but I know what they mean. I never got them last month. It was a huge sign. Mine is the other way around, I get super heavy flow day 1 and cramps as it starts and sometimes for the whole day, really gassy and bloated and then day 2 is heavy but not as much and no cramps and then day 3 is spotting turning to nothing.

Manifesting too 🫶🏻🍀

At first my cats were like WTF are they 🤣🤣🤣 but now they realise the dogs won't do anything other than try to play occasionally they don't care. They quite happily sit in the same room or share the sofa or my lap which is nice.

Wow that is so exciting!! We moved into our family home 2 years ago now and we have two spare rooms waiting for babies 👶 OH uses one as a study and the other is a guest room and I can't wait to turn the guest room into a nursery and then kick OH out of the study a couple of years later 🤣🤣

@Angie2018 it is! felt so sorry for my girls when they had their cone of shame on 🤣

Haha you tell him!! 🤣 they don't know how easy they've got it!

Ahh that makes sense, it's bittersweet being in-tune with your body isn't it. I move to spotting day 3 too until day 5! I don't know if you agree but I prefer shorter AF and can deal with the cramps if they only last a day.

Aww that's so nice! It's great that they get on well and can share their space. I introduced my two quite soon after getting my younger one and they are a bonded pair now! Love hanging out together 🥰

Perfect! All set up and ready then 🤞🏼 OH will have to be evicted and make a study in the shed instead 🤣

Update: shadows on IC strip tests but did another CB early detection and got a darker and definitely blue line (visible in RL) wondering if it's showing progression and the other tests aren't low enough sensitivity?! Driving myself crazy! Line appeared within 5mins (normal timeframe)
