@theblueflowers looks like this test is a dye stealer to the control line and it wasn’t at 13dpo, so I’d say that was a good test! 👏🏽

Indianna2006 · 18/10/2022 18:27

@theblueflowers they are very good lines for 13dpo and 15dpo on frer. Nice strong positives. I’d be really happy with those 🥰🥰

FfayeN · 18/10/2022 18:38

@theblueflowers I agree with @Indianna2006 and @HalWin2221 it's definitely much stronger. Since using these IC I have gone off FRERs, their lines are so thin aren't they!! They're good lines though. Im glad your symptoms are fluctuating too it makes me feel normal 🤣.
I got a bag of 50 of these other tests I think (yep....obsessive) for about a tenner I'm sure and they show quite early. I'll see if I can get the link up. Xx

Hi
I have been quiet as I had been reading but not chatting, was feeling very anxious. Decided not to take second test till much later but then I just started having some light cramps 20 mins ago and totally freaked out (I think it could be implantation cramping, it's light). I panicked so much and decided to take a test even though I just had a glass of juice not long ago and it's not FMU but thought if things aren't right I'd rather know before starting to bleed.
So I just took e@h 10 mins ago, DH and I were both staring at it and you know how initially there's no line as it takes two minutes to show? For those to minutes I was thinking that was it...
Thankfully, there is a much clearer line now than last time... I also realised it's only been two days since that last test I uploaded but it had felt like a long time!
Happy that things are progressing well for @FfayeN and @theblueflowers

FfayeN · 18/10/2022 21:01

@lovenaps glad there was a line for you 😊. You wouldn't get a positive before actual implantation, so the cramps you had today are more likely to be it all adjusting in there 😊. How many DPO are you now? Xx

HalWin2221 · 18/10/2022 21:01

@lovenaps it is such a scary time isn’t it. Every cramp or niggle I get I just convince myself that’s it. How many dpo are you now? Remember you’re not alone in this 🙂

HalWin2221 · 18/10/2022 21:02

@FfayeN did you have cramps after implantation? Xx

FfayeN · 18/10/2022 21:13

@HalWin2221 no nothing like implantation cramps nor implantation bleeding this time but I have in the past. I have had some strange sensations (pulling, twitching and tingles) down there, but nothing in the last day or so 😩 xx

lovenaps · 18/10/2022 21:14

@FfayeN thanks ❤🤗I could be 10 or 11DPO but not entirely sure! Had a late ov this month.
@HalWin2221 definitely scary times! How are you? ❤

HalWin2221 · 18/10/2022 21:21

@FfayeN maybe that just means the little bean is all nestled where it should be now 🤞🏽

@lovenaps we must be the same as I’m 11 dpo now too 🙂 I’ve had some back ache today so I’m just convinced it’s not going to end well 🙁 I wasn’t going to test again until Friday but think I might have to tomorrow 🙈 if you’ve got a line on the night 11dpo that must be a good sign 🤞🏽

FfayeN · 18/10/2022 21:28

@lovenaps aw really hoping this is a sticky little bean for you 🥰 xx

@HalWin2221 I really hope so 🤞🏼 xx

@HalWin2221 keeping everything crossed for you! Could the pain have been caused by anything else, e.g. I get it when I sit in my bed with my laptop! I honestly hope all works out well for you x ❤
@FfayeN thank you so much x❤

lovenaps · 18/10/2022 21:40

@LuckyMoonstone saw there has been some progress, hopefully this nightmare will soon be over for you!

HJA87 · 18/10/2022 21:47

@lovenaps that’s a good sign. The testing anxiety is real. I was a wreck every day before testing until my MC on Sunday, it’s almost a relief I don’t have to that anymore (which is a ridiculous way to think about it, I know).

Has anyone self prescribed baby aspirin following recurrent miscarriages? I’m debating whether or not try it next time I get a BFP. I’m currently waiting for my recurrent miscarriages blood panel results but I’ve been told some will take several weeks and I could potentially ovulate in a couple of weeks so most likely before the results are in.

lovenaps · 18/10/2022 22:29

@HJA87 not ridiculous and totally understandable ❤I was feeling the same when experiencing a CP, I swear CP gives people some sort of PTSD for POAS!
How are you feeling today? x

lovenaps · 18/10/2022 22:33

@HJA87 forgot to reply re baby aspiring. I have seen on a few threads here that people have self-prescribed!

HJA87 · 18/10/2022 23:00

@lovenaps fingers crossed for nice thick lines only for you this time! X I’ll do some more research re aspirin and hopefully will make my mind up as to what I want to do before the next BFP (should I be lucky to get one so soon).

calimc83 · 19/10/2022 07:33

@HJA87 Hey, re aspirin. I've been taking it since I was around 6 weeks with this current pregnancy. It's self prescribed, my midwife said she couldn't 'prescribe' it to me but if it was her, then she'd take it. I saw the consultant Monday and she said it wouldn't do any harm. I'm sure @bunnykins123 takes it as well ( or maybe I've completely made that up ). If you look online there's various schools of thought on it, try looking at the research papers as well xxx

TheBirdintheCave · 19/10/2022 08:25

I'm taking the plunge today and booking us in for a couples pre IVF fertility check at Kings in London. It should save us some money in the long run if we do end up going for IVF in a few months as that's our chosen clinic. It's £450 x__x

ChloeN · 19/10/2022 08:36

@TheBirdintheCave does it just check if things are working okay for you both? I’m so early on in this journey but sometimes I feel like going for a fertility check just to make sure everything’s okay, I’m so anxious about it all the time😐

TheBirdintheCave · 19/10/2022 08:44

@ChloeN Yeah I get a scan and some blood tests and my husband gets a sperm analysis then we have a chat with a consultant and receive a written report.

ChickenT2b · 19/10/2022 09:02

Morning all!
I’ve been quiet whilst I process my string of BFNs. The latest being yesterday at 12dpo on CB ultra early non digi.
However… today my temperature spiked like proper spiked from 36.55 to 36.92 (off the scale). When I was pregnant the first time I found out because my temp was 36.95 so I decided to test on day 33.

So question is, what do I do now? I feel like writing this message I have already got my hopes up but it’s probably just a blip 🤦🏼‍♀️

I’ve read in historical forums ladies getting their BFPs late on but everyone nowadays seem to get them really early!!

p.s. Beautiful line @ffayen

ChickenT2b · 19/10/2022 09:03

Here’s my graph..

TheBirdintheCave · 19/10/2022 09:22

@ChickenT2b I think all you can do is keep testing. That graph does look really promising though :)

bunnykins123 · 19/10/2022 09:38

@TheBirdintheCave it's good you're being proactive. We are having our final tests done over the next few weeks and will then make a decision from there. I hear of lots of women conceiving before having IVF so here's hoping 🤞 have you had any tests done before?

@ChickenT2b it's hard to tell really. I would keep testing as that's really the only way to know. For what's it's worth, my temp drops after AF arrives 🤦‍♀️
