Thanks for all being so lovely.

Sitting her sobbing for yet another month. It's just unbearable.

I feel like it's wrong, and I've never ever felt that before. But it's BRIGHT white. Not even the faintest whisper of a line.

Today is CD31. Cycle is usually 30 days with period pains starting CD28 / CD29 and steadily increasing until AF arrives.

@monsteramunch I wouldn't be surprised if 25 is still too high to pick it up yet.

Maybe I should hold off until Wednesday morning to test again in that case.

Might be better mental health wise I think, because doing this again first thing tomorrow feels really upsetting.

So sorry you've all had such a tough time too, much tougher things than this, and here's me merailing the whole thread.

Sorry x

@monsteramunch oh I’m so sorry to hear it’s a BFN 😔 have everything crossed for you that it is different tomorrow.

@LuckyMoonstone great to see the progression. When is your scan?

@Indianna2006 @bunnykins123 i got stung by the hook effect a few days ago. Couldn’t help but do yet another cheap

monsteramunch · 09/01/2023 18:31

Even got a weird taste in my mouth and really thirsty. Maybe I've just lost the plot.

Hope everyone else is doing ok Flowers

bunnykins123 · 09/01/2023 18:32

@monsteramunch I think it's probably the shock of seeing a bfn when you were so sure of a bfp. We are all here for you though 💕 I think waiting a day or so is a good idea. You may be later in your cycle than you think?

bunnykins123 · 09/01/2023 18:32

@monsteramunch sorry I meant earlier in your cycle.

emhope · 09/01/2023 18:32

@Indianna2006 @bunnykins123 opps sent before I finished. Yeh so did another cheap test and the line was faint after having strong lines before. Was so sick with worry but read about the hook effect and how you need to dilute the wee so tried with 50% water 50% wee and thankfully gave me another dark line! That will teach me to keep POAS after nearly 3 weeks though lol

bringmearainbow · 09/01/2023 18:35

@monsteramunch I think @TheBirdintheCave is right 25 isn't a sensitive test especially if you implanted a bit later. I would wait a couple of days at least for the digital or maybe go and get a more sensitive test?

emhope · 09/01/2023 18:36

I know maybe I should be on the other threads now but I can’t seem to take myself away from here…it just feels like home if that makes sense lol and you are all so lovely ☺️

MrsJGrealish · 09/01/2023 18:40

@emhope oh no stay! Due date threads are weird. Too busy

MrsJGrealish · 09/01/2023 18:40

Apologies if anyone is on one though 😂

LuckyMoonstone · 09/01/2023 18:42

@emhope first thing Thursday morning 🤞🤞

@monsteramunch I also agree that it could be too early for a 25mlu test. The digitals aren’t very sensitive so I would avoid those as well. Could you order some FRER? If I were you, I would have been totally convinced as well, we all were I think. Sending big hugs, I hope you can get through tonight and feel a bit better in the morning. It’s ok to have a cry and it is even more ok to pour it all out to us lot on here, never apologise for that! X

TheBirdintheCave · 09/01/2023 18:42

@emhope I had a horrid experience on the due date threads so I'd definitely recommend staying here.

monsteramunch · 09/01/2023 18:43

Thanks @bunnykins123 this is such a nice group, I really appreciate you all being so supportive.

Feel like I've let you all down with yet another BFN for me after being so excited.

Honestly have never had the 'I just know / knew' feeling but it's not shifting.

Which is good in a way I suppose. Bit of hope. Or delusion!

FfayeN · 09/01/2023 18:43

@emhope you are welcome to stay as long as you like!
@monsteramunch if AF doesn't show tomorrow I would absolutely test again Wednesday with a more sensitive test, your symptoms sound too different for it to be AF! You will be ok, it doesn't feel like it now but you will xx
@TheBirdintheCave I know, so frustrating, literally zilch on the OPKs and then this afternoon BAM and proper ovulation pain 🤦🏼‍♀️ x

LuckyMoonstone · 09/01/2023 18:47

I wish bodies had a HR department to complain to

monsteramunch · 09/01/2023 18:48

LuckyMoonstone · 09/01/2023 18:47

I wish bodies had a HR department to complain to

I would ABSOLUTELY like to speak to the manager today 😂

MrsJGrealish · 09/01/2023 18:52

Fuck a duck I have period pains now 🙄 I thought the digitals picked up at 10iu? Random supermarket test would be wildly insensitive xx

LuckyMoonstone · 09/01/2023 18:55

@monsteramunch you need a formal apology and a coupon for your troubles 😅

TheBirdintheCave · 09/01/2023 18:56

@MrsJGrealish The ultra early ones are 10. The weeks ones are 25.

bringmearainbow · 09/01/2023 18:58

@emhope I struggled on the due date threads they gave me so much anxiety you're welcome to stay in here ❤️

@monsteramunch you def haven't let anyone down. It's def not over yet.

@LuckyMoonstone omg good job they don't there would be complaint after complaint 😂

@MrsJGrealish the early digitals pick up 10 but the weeks indicators are 25

monsteramunch · 09/01/2023 19:02

I might ask my other half to grab some digital 10 mIU/ml ones tomorrow so I can torture myself a bit more tomorrow.

MrsJGrealish · 09/01/2023 19:02

@bringmearainbow @TheBirdintheCave ok good to know! X

monsteramunch · 09/01/2023 19:03

LuckyMoonstone · 09/01/2023 18:55

@monsteramunch you need a formal apology and a coupon for your troubles 😅

I'm going to be talking tribunals soon at this rate!

bringmearainbow · 09/01/2023 19:10

@monsteramunch honestly the whole journey is just torture I think we all deserve a very good payout 😂
