1dpo - it's going to be a long two weeks if anyone wants to symptom spot with me

Heyyy I am back in the two-week wait if anyone is in the same boat and wants company, I ovulated 29th sept I believe! Chemical pregnancy two cycles ago so wishing this cycle is the one 🤞🏼

@Kayycatt that definitely looks positive! Congratulations!

do you know exactly when you ovulated or could you have ovulated later?

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 08:23

@Peeonastick22 thanks!

I got the peak with the clear blue Opk on the 29th last month.

I am still getting some cramps though, so keep thinking that AF will still arrive anytime soon...

Mortima · 14/10/2022 08:49

@Kayycatt definitely positive! It looks good to me, but I guess the progression is the important thing - is this the first day you've tested?

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 10:01

@Mortima I tested around 11dpo before but it was negative. This is the first time I am seeing a faint line. I will test again after the weekend. May actually get the FRER as I was holding off getting it as Superdrug was much cheaper 😅

Mortima · 14/10/2022 10:21

Definitely get a FRER to compare - some people don't get a positive at all until later on so wouldn't necessarily get a dye-stealer at 15DPO - I would be cautiously optimistic about that line 😊

Peeonastick22 · 14/10/2022 11:55

@Kayycatt cant you technically ov 48hrs after positive opk?

you could only be 13dpo!!

cramps are normal in early pregnancy- keep us updated I have everything crossed for you!!

Peeonastick22 · 14/10/2022 11:58

I’m officially day 1 of my cycle (I thought I’d started the other day but was only spotting!)

I saw on another thread someone saying that they like to think of each unwelcome day 1 of AF as 1 day pregnant if this cycle is the one!

i like that!

@Mortima Actually I think I will test again after the weekend but will use the Superdrug for now (as they came in a pack of two) before I go and purchase more. All these tests really add up the cost 😅

@Peeonastick22 🤔Didn't realise that. It was the first time I used the CB OPK (as just using the fitbit app didn't seem to work so well for the past 10 months). I don't know why I had it in my head that as soon as I had the peak, so must meant I ovulated that same day...

Will test again after the weekend and will keep you posted!😊

@Peeonastick22 Aww that's nice way to think. Keep positive 💪hopefully this will be your cycle!

Peeonastick22 · 14/10/2022 12:28

@Kayycatt just did a quick google and it looks like you can ovulate anywhere from 1-3 days after a smily face on the clear blue ovulation kit!

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 12:39

@Peeonastick22 oh! That's a long range. Thanks for sharing. Useful information for others too as I had no idea!

HJA87 · 14/10/2022 14:32

@Peeonastick22 My Clear Blue OPK always gives me a static smiley about 2 days before my easy@home peak. I would probably miss it if I was relying solely on the CB. I still use them as it’s good to have the heads up (and avoid starting DTD too early 😅).

jmase · 14/10/2022 19:25

How is everyone? My AF will be three days late tomorrow. Still testing negative 🤷‍♀️

Mum2yorkie · 14/10/2022 20:15

So sorry for not joining in the last few days. Massive congratulations to the ladies who have positive tests - there's lots of you lucky ladies! And to the ladies who haven't, I'm so sorry this cycle wasn't to be and please don't give up hope even though it's heartbreaking ❤️

According to my Fitbit, AF was due on Tuesday but never showed up. I had a longer period last month though so I don't think AF should arrive until next Tuesday. Of course I tested after Tuesday anyway 🙈 and have had negative pregnancy tests the last couple of days so I'm trying not to again until Tuesday if AF doesn't turn up. I was convinced she was on the way last Sunday as I had period pains but that amounted to nothing 🤷🏼‍♀️ so still on the seemingly neverending 2WW

Fingers crossed for you sounds like we are in a similar position

Mum2yorkie · 14/10/2022 20:22

Such a weird limbo isn't it @jmase I'm just hoping AF hurries up now so the next cycle can begin

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 20:34

@Mum2yorkie @jmase

It's not over until AF arrive.

Fingers crossed for you both!
