Love a digital BFP. Makes it seem more real somehow. Congratulations @Roxybabe wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy

Ella31 · 24/12/2022 09:11

9po and BFN. Period due Monday- should the tests be showing faint lines at this stage? So discouraged 😪

Seasidegirll · 24/12/2022 11:30

@Roxybabe amazing 😍 so happy for you!! What brand of folate did you use? I’ve been thinking of swapping!

Roxybabe · 24/12/2022 11:35

@Seasidegirll thank you! I got these on amazon! Abit pricey but I’d rather pay out for a good one!

@Roxybabe congratulations!! So happy for you!! 🥰🥰

And congrats to everyone else who has had their BFP! Amazing news just before Christmas 🎄✨

I couldn't resist anymore and tested this morning. My period is due on Boxing Day so I'm 13DPO. Well I got a faint line today on a FRER. Would you expect it to be fairly dark at this point? It's a definite line - just pretty light. I can't test again now til after Xmas as can't get to the shops today, which is probably a blessing.

Hopefulfor4 · 24/12/2022 14:49

@PumpkinTruffles do you have a pic? X

PumpkinTruffles · 24/12/2022 14:52

Hopefully this works - I've only just rejoined today after deleting my account a while back. I might be making this up but I think I read somewhere you can't add photos for a short period after joining...?

@Hopefulfor4 Well it seems to have worked so clearly I was making that up! Grin

Hopefulfor4 · 24/12/2022 15:26

Looks like a nice line to me certainly not a squinter!! But then I'm always a bit worried to trust them until about darker as I've had a few chemicals! X

PumpkinTruffles · 24/12/2022 16:03

Thanks. A chemical is always a worry and yet still I test early. I'm going to put it out of my mind and re-test if my period doesn't show up in a few days

Roxybabe · 24/12/2022 16:15

@Roxybabe thank you! I’ll have a little look at them x

GemLou88 · 24/12/2022 17:37

Congratulations @PumpkinTruffles 🥳

I’m still using my OPK’s to see when my levels start dropping. But this is my second full day with peaks. Anyone else had this? Thought I would see a decline by now. Am I right in saying when you start to see a decline that’s when ovulation is happening?

Saturnsmoon · 24/12/2022 17:43

So turns out what I originally thought was AF arriving was implantation bleeding. Based on what I thought my ovulation date was I’m a bit surprised it’s only showing 1-2 weeks but I think @Roxybabe may have been right in suggesting I might have ovulated later (I don’t bbt so very possible). Just going to try not to worry about it. Getting out of drinking over the next week is going to require a lot of creativity 🤪 but I’m so so happy - this was our 12th cycle so was really starting to feel like there was something wrong. The only real thing we did differently was relax a bit about it. We were on the second month of taking vit c & d and epo for me. Definitely had less regimented sex and kept my feet warm during tww by sleeping with socks on 😂.

Merry Christmas ladies - fingers crossed for lots more BFPs.

@Saturnsmoon ahhhh amazing!!! Congrats!! Yeah maybe you ovulated abit later!! Try not to worry! You got your BFP! Xxx

@Roxybabe thank you!! Fingers crossed for healthy and happy pregnancies for both of us. Xx

PumpkinTruffles · 24/12/2022 18:32

Ah thank you all. I don't really get symptoms before my period. The reason I took the test was because my boobs have been absolutely killing me which is unusual and it made me wonder. I really hope it sticks 🤞🏻

bubblebab · 25/12/2022 09:45

Sorry to jump on here- but does anyone see anything? I swear I can 😅 but I think I'm testing too early (don't track ovulation) thank you! X

Ladies, 10dpo - very very very faint line on Frer. Not even going to read into it, let's see what the next few days bring.

emhope · 25/12/2022 13:01

@Saturnsmoon @PumpkinTruffles congratulations to you both on your BFP’s 😊

@Roxybabe was really nervous but I did the digital, definitely makes it seem more real 😬

@emhope ahhh amazing! Such a relief to see it in writing isn’t it!! What a lovely xmas present!! Are you going to stop testing now? Do you have any symptoms?

@Ella31 fingers crossed for you 🤞❤️

hello everyone! Merry Christmas and congrats to all that have had their BFPs, what a lovely Christmas present!!
I have a quick question, I’ve done 4 IC tests from the same urine this evening… these are two of them and the other two were stark white negatives, so I’m very confused. Has anyone else had this with IC and had AF arrive? I’m CD25, approx 8-10dpo and in cycle 2 TTC #1

@hiautumn for me those are too dark to be indents or evaps. I would say tentative congratulations..:
