ElleJones1 · 26/03/2023 21:25

So I took a test that weekend and all negative! It wasn’t until the following Saturday 8th I got a very faint positive! Xx

So don’t give up all hope xx

Swiftie12 · 26/03/2023 21:50

Hi @ElleJones1 im actually so glad you’ve replied to my comments!! I saw you and your easy at home the other day so I’ve been curious how it’s going. I’m feeling like I’m going through the same. Honestly they’re driving me crazy.

Its only the last two days that they’ve been going positive when dry (I found one or two older negatives so I know it’s not every single test). My husband has done a control which I’ve been checking on and off over the past couple of hours and I do feel like it’s brewing something so I’m thinking it’s the tests which is a real shame. I am only 9DPO though so you never know. Also a bit TMI but my boobs look quite inflated so 🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼

Glad that you got a faint positive in the end so there was a happy ending to it. So hopeful I’ll get mine this month but we’ll have to wait and see. AF is due Thursday.

HA01 · 26/03/2023 22:16

Hi ladies, please can I join in the TWW too? I'm 8DPO today trying for our first and couldn't stop myself from testing (I have been testing from 6DPO, I know I'm terrible 😞) and I got a BFN

I would've been hopeful but other than slight sore/itchy boobs I have no symptoms at all and dry CM.....I think I'm out but it's so hard not to go crazy every minute of it especially because I thought I was so organised this month where instead of relying on OPKs we DTD every alternate day and idk I really thought it would work out this month!!! :(

90mamabear · 26/03/2023 18:32

@Butterflyanniehall it could be estrogen levels but just keep a wee eye out to make sure you don't have some kind of infection down below or uti or something unrelated hopefully it's hormonal :) xx

@90mamabear thank you for replying and the advice I appreciate it
I'm so sorry to hear about your BFN but remain positive even though it's hard, it can always change in the next few days xx

Babyhopeful23 · 25/03/2023 19:07

Hello, can I take a seat beside ye for the TTW?
I think am 6/7 DPO (but completely unsure if I even ovulated). Holding out to test until Thursday!
Hoping everyone has a BFP

I'm 6 dpo too, and am also hoping to wait until the end of the week 😁 I'm currently away on a city break with bf and friends, and it's so hard not to drink, they're all having delicious cocktails and I'm burning with jealously, but also convincing myself that I'm feeling cramps etc, when in reality I bet im not pregnant. I found out I was pregnant this day last year (eventually lost the pregnancy) and am pretty sad about it, so im really hoping for a bfp later this week ☺️
Wishing all of us the absolute best of luck!
Looking at other people's tests is really actually helping me with my own urges to do them, I love scrutinising them even when they're not for me 🀣

Thanks @90mamabear! x I'm going to try to stop myself from testing until 12DPO but knowing myself, that resolve will disappear by tonight πŸ˜‚

Bubblesandballoons · 27/03/2023 07:41

@90mamabear sorry about the bfn. I tested today as after all the early miscarriages I didn’t want to have another one and think it was because of using all the saunas etc if I had of been pregnant. It was a bfn so off to relax and enjoy all the rooms. Are you testing today again? I’ll wait now till af shows as have always had a bfp by 10dpo if pregnant.

good luck to everyone testing over the next few days xx

falsepositivenervous · 27/03/2023 18:02

Soooo of course as soon as I landed I went to the pharmacy and bought two of the expensive preg tests, did it with my afternoon wee at 6dpo, and am somehow still sad that it's negative πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ I'm going to do my absolute best to not use the other test until Friday.

Babyhopeful23 · 27/03/2023 18:08

Omg the temptation is unbearable! I think I’m around 9/10 DPO. A video came up on my page saying that I will have a +pregnancy test on March 30th and now im afraid if I do it before then I will ruin destiny. I know!!! I’m gone completely crazy and this is only cycle 1.

Swiftie12 · 27/03/2023 19:04

@Babyhopeful23 I feel you! This is cycle 3 for us TTC#1. The TWW is absolutely killer!! The longer you wait the better, personally I don’t have the self discipline to not test every day πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I tested this morning (after multiple odd easy at home results) and got an odd line which dried as a faint line. I now have 8 easy at homes all dried with faint lines. Going absolutely mad wondering if it’s going to develop or I’m just horribly unlucky. I had some wondflo’s arrive earlier, BFN on the one I took. Going to retest tomorrow morning. I’ve also ordered some FRER’s so hopefully I’ll get an answer soon.

Babyhopeful23 · 27/03/2023 19:29

@Swiftie12 im not superstitious or believe in any of that but I just found it so strange to scroll across that video and now I can’t get it out of my head. It’s going to be such a let down if it’s negative. I have no symptoms at all, like not even a twinge. I’m on the countdown until Thursday.
How many days DPO are you? I’ve never even gotten a faint dried line so I can’t offer any advice, but I hope they are your BFP and develop stronger over the next few days.

90mamabear · 27/03/2023 21:10

Oh ladies I hope we are lucky !!! I feel like af coming any second now I almost just want it over with ! Xx

So grateful for this active little group we can all share our journey/ keep eachother sane πŸ˜„

HA01 · 27/03/2023 21:15

Yeah I was right, my resolve broke as soon as I got home from work - 9DPO today and still a BFN! I felt the mildest of nausea this evening but then I always symptom spot obsessively to the point of feeling all symptoms until AF arrives πŸ₯²

@Babyhopeful23 I totally understand not wanting to jinx it if you've seen the video now!! The way I see it, if you manage to wait until Friday, you'll be spared the misery of early BFNs and you'll be likely to see a big strong line! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!! xx

Babyhopeful23 · 27/03/2023 21:16

@90mamabear its so active! Hopefully less active when we can all leave the tw waiting room, with BFPs. Although like you I feel like AF is probably only around the corner too. My cycle length is 31/32 days and I had a 35 day cycle only recently. I’ve no idea what that means but I imagine my timings all wrong. I’m going to order OPKs as soon as AF arrives and hopefully catch my ovulation this month. I really wanted a 2023 baby.

90mamabear · 27/03/2023 21:10

Oh ladies I hope we are lucky !!! I feel like af coming any second now I almost just want it over with ! Xx

My health app just flashed a notification that my period will probably begin in the next 3 days and I muted it in rage! It's not over until AF rears its ugly head!! xx

Babyhopeful23 · 27/03/2023 21:22

@HA01 nausea is a good sign, hope your BFP is a day away! Symptom spotting and obsessing is all part of it. It’s so hard not to! Why does time pass so slowly during the TTW.
Im going to need some direction for OPK testing, any brands anyone can recommend. When should I start, 31/32 day cycle here.

Did anyone else notice that so many people are pregnant at the moment or maybe I’m just paying more attention to it!

90mamabear · 27/03/2023 22:18

Here comes the tmi! But I have some serious weird cm going on ! Normally I do get quite a lot before my period but this is really odd almost a bit like ewcm but like yellow (sorry I know)πŸ˜‚ and stretchy but almost like glue like ! πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈpleaseeeee be a sign!! Xx

@falsepositivenervous it's ok I think I have been testing from about 3dpo lol!!

falsepositivenervous · 28/03/2023 07:57

@90mamabear haha another one wasted this morning, obviously negative πŸ˜‚ as I am back to having only one test (that is currently hidden somewhere I don't know about) I'm gonna hold out till Friday or Sunday!

Interesting! I don't think there's a thing like being TMI here when we're all looking out for the same things in ourselves 🀣 when you say it's sticky like glue, is it still transparent? Like it's like EWCM just more condensed into a kind of snot texture? I think I know the kind you mean. It could be a good sign, the beginning of mucous thickening into a plug? Mine is currently glue-like, but white/cream/yellow-y.
I keep getting random cramps, but I'm not sure if that's something hopeful or not (I have stage 4 endo, so it could just be cysts or god knows what else causing pains). No spotting or anything of the sort.
