Hi all,

I’m just starting my TWW and planning on testing around 29 October (unless period comes sooner which it did last month!)

Anyone else planning to test around Halloween?

@TI2411 ahh ok yes I was just wondering if you might have ovulated earlier than your app thinks - actually just read your post again and you said that you might have done. So annoying not knowing for sure what's going on, isn't it?

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 13:17

@Billyv very frustrating! I’ll just wait until the 31st and then test šŸ™‚

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 13:55

I caved… is this what I think it is?! Photos taken at 3 minutes. The line seems too far over to me?!

@TI2411 i see it but yeah it does seem it could be a bit far to the left, have you got any others to test with xx

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 14:08

@ChloeN ive got some Boots strip ones so not as sensitive as FR. I’ll leave it a couple of days and test again

Billyv · 25/10/2022 14:14

@TI2411 oh no a BF...WTF?

Actually that must be kind of a stressful result for you 🫤I guess there's a chance that is a real test line, but they've lined it up wrong when they manufactured the test. But yeah, it doesn't look right...

Roxybabe · 25/10/2022 14:21

8dpo and the urge to test early is getting stronger šŸ™ˆ

Tbark · 25/10/2022 15:13

Seeing people testing is giving me the.urge to POAS....or do I wait the couple more days until AF is due?

Also does anyone have any recommendations for which FRER to get!? I never usually test and just wait out for AF to show lol

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 15:29

@Billyv i am so confused šŸ˜• my other half said ā€˜well what else could it be’. But I’m still not convinced šŸ˜‚

ChloeN · 25/10/2022 15:29

@Tbark if you want the early one I think it says 6 days early on the box! The only other first response test I’ve seen is the rapid response ones xx

JuniperandI · 25/10/2022 15:44

Same boat as you! 7/8 dpo, negative test this morning.

Harriet669 · 25/10/2022 16:07

www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=9 I've seen this a few times

Roxybabe · 25/10/2022 17:13

I have caved and bought a box of wondfos of of amazon, says you can test from 10DPO and got a box of 25 tests too so won't be as bad as spending a small fortune on FRERs.

Roxybabe · 25/10/2022 17:15

@TI2411 I have never seen that before but retest and let us know!! Fingers crossed its a gd sign!!

Tbark · 25/10/2022 17:35

Thanks everyone! Gonna nip past the shop ony way home.from work....I can't resist the urge to test!!! If its a BFN I know I'll be more disappointed than if I'd just waited for.AF haha. How crazy does this TTC journey make us šŸ˜…

Tbark · 25/10/2022 18:01

Couldn't wait and wished I had šŸ¤£šŸ™ˆ BFN for me!!

Harriet669 · 25/10/2022 18:13

I just caved with my only test (cheap strip test) at 8/9dpo it is of course stark white, at least the temptation is gone as I have no more tests šŸ™ˆšŸ˜‚

Harriet669 · 25/10/2022 18:13

@Tbark sorry about the BFN, same here

Tbark · 25/10/2022 18:14

Sorry to hear about your BFN @Harriet669 😪

Hoping someone on here gets a BFP xx

Billyv · 25/10/2022 18:37

I was just thinking odds are someone will @Tbark

Sorry to see your BFP, better luck next time x

@Harriet669 there's still time if you're only 8/9dpo

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 18:51

@Roxybabe its so odd isn’t it! My brain is so confused!
A couple of my friends have said there’s definitely two lines there, but both agreed that the test line looks too far across.

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 18:52

@Tbark sorry about the BFN šŸ˜”

Roxybabe · 25/10/2022 18:54

@TI2411 what DPO are you? I agree, no denying there is a line! But its far over! I don't know how you are waiting to retest! I would be straight down the shops!!

@Tbark sorry for the BFN, maybe too early?

SmurfStar · 25/10/2022 18:57

Hi all can I join .. period due on the 30th and I said I was gonna wait but I took a test today of course, absolutely amazing self control I have ...Lol

It's defo an evap line. However I am still convincing myself it isn't and holding onto some hope.

I haven't read all- so much to read! But I laughed at the symptom spotting. Crazy how many of us are on the same boat.

I'm not familiar with all the abbreviations sorry! I think I'm 9dpo

Tbark · 25/10/2022 19:01

@SmurfStar welcome to the thread 😊 (random boob checking is must in this group!!! Lol)

@Roxybabe I'm 11DPO.....so probably not but I'm clutching at strawers and my sister didn't get BFP until AF was nearly 2 weeks late with all.3 of her kids!!! This is honestly making me crazy 🤪
