@FfayeN ha! I have been thinking the exact same thing with mine. My one this morning looks too dark! I wonder if it's because we're so used to seeing pictures of tests done so early before AF is due? HCG numbers can vary so much at this early stage, I don't think it will mean anything too much at this moment.

@FfayeN such a line ❤️ this one is a sticker 🙏🙌

@FfayeN Wow that's a dye stealer! Maybe it is twins! 😱😬

@theblueflowers oh I look forward to the pessaries this evening 😬.

Oh that's reassuring yours are the same and I think you're right, at this stage I've always done the cheapies or digitals. Though I did implant early at 7DPO I think judging my chart so that could be why.

Day 1 and we're already panicking 🤣.
Told DH and he was already asking when I'd tell other people and work etc so I had to bring him back down to Earth a little which isn't nice but as we've said on here before...each day at a time xx

So. 14dpo for me and nothing. No spotting, no AF 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm a bit confused. I always get AF 14 days after my O pains and normally spot two days before so this is... unusual. FF says to expect my period tomorrow but my luteal phase is never 15 days. Temp is above the cover line but its not high. Maybe FF is right? My sore boobs are pretty much gone. Should I get a test today while I'm in town? I don't want to waste my money 🤦🏻‍♀️

@FfayeN beautiful line!

Thanks girls for the reassurance. I also feel extra anxious today because I'm due to drive an hour on the motorway and I hate driving on the motorway. My anxiety just spikes and I get intrusive thoughts of crashing the car. Plus I'll have my daughter in the back so can't even listen to podcasts to distract me. Made me feel doubly sick this morning I think.

@TheBirdintheCave oh that's so confusing isn't it. Someone on here recommended Savers for tests that are way cheaper than boots etc. might be worth a go? Put your mind at rest? xx

@RaliaMusca thank you 💕
Anxiety is the worst. Could you have the podcast on low or some music you enjoy to try and occupy the mind? xx

@RaliaMusca if not just take it easy, leave extra time so you're not rushing and stick in the inside lane and cruise at a speed you're comfortable with xx

@FfayeN that's a super line! I agree with @MrsCristianoX that's a sticky bean in there! I totally understand why you had to rein DH in, after you've been so much heartbreak you don't want to allow yourself to get too excited. Do what feels right to you - if you want to tell people, do it. If it feels too early, maybe wait until the pregnancy progresses a bit. But either way, that's looking SO promising!

@TheBirdintheCave are you sure of your O date? I sometimes find AF can change ever so slightly month on month. Last month AF arrived in the evening of 15dpo. That's a cruel little game my body has been playing with me recently. Maybe hold off a few days and see if AF arrives before buying another test.

So from yesterday afternoon I noticed my bleeding getting heavier and noticed a couple of little clots. I didn’t take the cyclogest last night and today the bleeding is just as heavy albeit not to a period standard but a few more wee clots this morning. I do think the bleeding and clots will continue and that’s the tissue being passed. I’m obviously very devastated but also a bit relieved that the bleeding is finally leading somewhere is that awful saying? I don’t have any cramps though? With my last mc I had cramps 2 days prior to bleeding and had pain radiating down my legs too. The sister said at the scan last week even if I pass clots to come to the scan for confirmation. Im wondering if I was meant to be further along as digital was 2-3 and midwife said I’d only be 3 weeks and baby stopped growing at 6 weeks and from last week this is my body trying to clear my uterus? I’m wondering should we ttc straight after surely I couldn’t be that unlucky to miscarry 3 times in a row? DS is still bum in the air looking through his legs for a sibling. Keep telling him he’ll be looking for a while 😂

@FfayeN that is a lovely line! Don’t worry about it being too dark. I would always get dark line by 14dpo on a frer. I feel like frer the lines progress much quicker than cheaper sticks.

@bunnykins123 Yeah I had O pains and a temp dip then spike at the same time which FF confirmed as ovulation. I guess it's probably just a blip.

@HalWin2221 oh I def see a line!!! How do you feel? If you’ve another one even try tonight or tomorrow morning there might be more hcg then for a definitive line. Fingers crossed!

@FfayeN hopefully the sign of a good progressing pregnancy. Lots of hcg maybe lots of sickness 😬. I hope you’ve lots of symptoms (as much as they’re awful at the time) but you’ll always feel at ease with a squeeze of the boob 😂

@RaliaMusca i always worried about my lack of symptoms too but it might be a thing with subsequent pregnancies. Sure you hear of people going 6 months without realising they’re pregnant because they’ve no symptoms. I’m totally with you and motorways as well. I can get to 2 places in Belfast and ask me to drive anywhere else and I’ll cry 😂

@HalWin2221 that is such good news ❤x
Very happy for all three girls!

And sending hugs to those struggling right now - your time will come. Please keep believing it! One day we will all be celebrating your positive tests here!
@Luna57 how are you holding up? x

@EsmeSusanOgg how are you doing? x

@lovenaps i feel surprisingly ok considering what’s happening, especially during baby loss awareness week… how ironic. Hope you’re ok also?

I decided to leave it and just wait and see what happens. I'm annoyed it's late. I just want to start the next cycle now 🙄

@Luna57 I know what you mean now you have an answer. So sorry though 😢. This journey is heartbreaking! Unless there's an underlying issue there's nothing stopping you trying again straight away, it's an individual choice and I'm sure you'll have an idea what to do if it gets to that stage if this one is going where you think xxx

@Indianna2006 aw thank you for the reassurance. And @Luna57 I'm hoping it doesn't mean more sickness, last time I was crunching nature valley bars in the middle of the night to stop the nausea, DH a did not appreciate it 😂.

@bunnykins123 🥰 thanks lovely

@HalWin2221 eek fingers crossed for you! I always try to double check the first response ones before testing as I have seen faint lines even before testing 🤦🏼‍♀️ But that does look darker. I also caved 🙈got a stark white but only with a cheapie so maybe a bit early at 9dpo. First response arrives today.
Will you test again tomorrow? X

Just stopped at the services, had abdominal pain whilst driving. Went to the loo and had a big gush of blood. Feels the same as with my last bleed but I'm obviously preparing for the worst. I'm due to arrive at a hen weekend this afternoon, not sure how I'll cope.

@Luna57 I’m so nervous! This is our last try for 8-9 months as we get married on august. But I’m going to try and stay positive(LITERALLY!)

@ChickenT2b thanks lovely! I did a cheapie yesterday and it was completely negative. Are you going to test tomorrow? Keeping everything crossed for you! I’m going to try and hold off for a couple of days, but we’ll see how well that goes 😂

@RaliaMusca i know you won’t be, but I hope you’re ok. Is there anyone you can talk to at the hen weekend?

@HalWin2221 are you 8 or 9 dpo today then? My first response have just arrived so will test again tomorrow. Feeling gutted already to be honest 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Anyone get a 9dpo negative and then positive? 😕 I thought I felt implantation twinges at 6/7 dpo. Could be anything I guess!

@ChickenT2b i am 8dpo. But my cheapie was negative. I think FRER are just so sensitive aren’t they! Don’t lose hope, there is definitely still chance! Are you going to test in the morning?

@ChickenT2b I was not tracking my ovulation with the first pregnancy but it would have been around day 11-12 DPO when I got the first positive. It was negative at what would have been around 9-10 DPO. I was using easy at home sticks.
Also...a few days before the positive test I had implantation spotting and the test was still negative at that point. Ironically, I tested positive early with the second pregnancy but that one lasted a lot shorter... So I would not be disheartened about the fact it is currently negative ❤
@RaliaMusca I am so so sorry. Sending you biggest of hugs and hoping everything is going to be okay. It must be so hard to be going to hen do but you are so STRONG x ❤
@Luna57 Glad to hear you are coping well, I am good, thanks x❤
