Hi everyone,
Thought I'd create a new thread as the TTC Oct and Nov we're so helpful to me :) There were so many BFPs in the Nov group so statistics doing their thing there will be lots of BFPS in this Dec thread too which is super exciting.

Im currently on CD3 of my 5th cycle TTC #2.

@bringmearainbow right no more testing until tonight or tomorrow 😅

Mummyme87 · 31/03/2023 11:00

@lottieb92 I’ve given up on CB digital, so expensive and I’m not sure it tells me anything I don’t already know. I’m from Newcastle originally, moved to London in 2005 for uni and got stuck here! My mam is now on Alnwick

bringmearainbow · 31/03/2023 11:01

@Angelselevenx I would go for one in the morning if you can hold out ❤️

lottieb92 · 31/03/2023 11:02

@HannahLouD i agree! Any other tests other than that brand?
it’s crazy to get that many positives on tests.. when is AF due? I guess that’s when you’ll get your answer 😘

clearblue can stress me out with testing early I stick to my cheapies or early response, I had this once and alas… it was a pesky Evap

@Mummyme87 yeah I think I’ll can the CB once they’re done and head back to the cheapies, I was lunch break shopping and I got weak when I saw they were on offer 🥲

lovely part of the world we have family in Morpeth!

HannahLouD · 31/03/2023 11:55

Thank you once again everyone!
Omg I'm actually driving myself insane. I never thought I was this person. This isn't ok.
I had one more boots test left (from the same pack as the one I took earlier) I'd kept my wee in a cup in the bathroom (grim!) And decided to dip it in so I absolutely couldn't test any more as it's making me lose my mind. And this is the difference in lines with exactly the same urine sample. I think I've come to the conclusion that I just don't trust these tests.
I'm also using the easy at home strips as they came with the opks and I have some progression on those (but then again I did even when I was having my chemical!) So don't really trust those either.
I only have 5 easy at home strips left and no actual tests so I'm actually absolutely not testing any more. I'm so annoyed with myself that I didn't just spend a bit more and get frers to start with instead.
My GP won't do anything as I've only had one chemical before which is annoying but I get it! Can't be wasting the NHS's time and money just because I'm being completely insane 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️
Stepping away from the tests and letting nature take its course. x

Also... Massive congrats to all those who have got their bfps recently!! Sorry, I have been following but selfishly been in my own self-centred world....

@HannahLouD put the boots tests down. If you’re going to test daily then keep to the cheapies. They are showing lovely progression, I know that happened last time but this is a different pregnancy. I would say you are definitely 100% far from out. When I AF due?

HannahLouD · 31/03/2023 12:03

@Mummyme87 I have none left and absolutely will not be buying anymore! They're clearly not good at all for line progression (fully aware you're not supposed to do it anyway but here we are aha)
I'm due AF tomorrow... Last month I was a week late due to the chemical but we shall see. Thank you for your support and I will absolutely stop spamming this lovely chat and you lovely ladies with my insanity!!x

Mummyme87 · 31/03/2023 12:05

@HannahLouD you’ve got this. Today You are pregnant ♥️

Seasidegirll · 31/03/2023 12:14

@HannahLouD sending you lots of love! Must be so confusing with the lines constantly looking darker and then lighter. Just echoing what everyone else has said, try and step away from the boots tests for now. When is your expected period due? Can you wait until then and then test again?

HannahLouD · 31/03/2023 12:21

@Seasidegirll thank you so much! Yes I have none left now so I won't be testing with them any more!
I'm due on tomorrow... We shall see x

Tryingtoconceivenumber2 · 31/03/2023 12:50

@HannahLouD those are lovely lines.

@Angelselevenx with my first child my first test looked like your clear blue one. My husband said it was negative I said positive she's now almost 3 x

Angelselevenx · 31/03/2023 12:53

@bringmearainbow I took another one......

@Tryingtoconceivenumber2 no way really.... I played around with the picture settings 😬

@HannahLouD i have everything crossed for you 🤞🏻❤️ I would wait until at least Sunday to test again x

Angelselevenx · 31/03/2023 13:01

@HannahLouD look at the progression on the easy at home tests!! Try to stop worrying and focus on the now xx

lottieb92 · 31/03/2023 13:15

I can see them @Angelselevenx !! They’re tiny but there for sure… what dpo again?

I finally have a good looking OPK … finally I was worried it wasn’t going to happen 😅

TTC December
Angelselevenx · 31/03/2023 13:16

@lottieb92 eeeek!! I think 9 or 10dpo depending on which app but I think 10dpo going by symptoms so still so early.

Woohoo that's a peak for sure!! What CD are you?

bringmearainbow · 31/03/2023 14:11

@Angelselevenx oooh yay I see them 😍 did you order frers?

@lottieb92 oh that's excellent I bet you'll be glad to have a few days off dtd!

Angelselevenx · 31/03/2023 14:12

@bringmearainbow of course 😅 coming tomorrow! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Tryingtoconceivenumber2 · 31/03/2023 15:18

@Angelselevenx yes. This time I did clear blue and a FRER. These tests are with the same wee sample and you can see how much lighter the clear blue and cheap Tesco test is compared to FRER. This is 10DPO.

lottieb92 · 31/03/2023 15:30

It’s 24hrs later than I was expecting but it’s here.. so yes two more days and I can relax 🥴

speaking of we have booked a spontaneously family meal out for 11! So I might have to try and cover today before 7pm tonight 🤪 wish me luck! Lol

Mummyme87 · 31/03/2023 16:00

Ah look at that lovely positive OPK @lottieb92 loads of us all ovulating T the same time! Enjoy dinner out!

I’m still throwing out positive OPKs, never have I had this many! They are getting lower on premom but still positive. 0.98 at 1pm ish and 0.8 just now. Have been twingey and periody all day, lower abdo crampy now.

Mummyme87 · 31/03/2023 16:02

Don’t you love Amazon?! I totally forgot to order more conceive plus supplements, checked this morning and they had same day delivery! They’re out for delivery now. Bloody amazing 🚚

Jennifer89 · 31/03/2023 18:02

Tested now when period due and 2 x negative tests so pretty much think i'm out. Has been weird week as spotting has been lighter and started earlier than usually does before AF arrives plus feeling nauseous in the morning at 12 dpo. I actually started to think I could be pregnant but I think my body just enjoys playing tricks on me unfortunately. 😞

Angelselevenx · 31/03/2023 18:06

@Tryingtoconceivenumber2 oh wow okay! My FRER come tomorrow so I'll do one tomorrow night and one Sunday morning (then probably order more) I've got quite a lot of cramping tonight 🤔
