Not feeling hopeful here. I had really bad period like cramps in my uterus and lower back last night at 6 dpo. Implantation shouldn't be that painful right and it's early.

AlleycatMarie · 04/04/2023 12:31

Hey @Natty83 thank you my lovely. Unfortunately yesterday and this morning didn’t happen. DH got cancelled and rescheduled to another that left early, which left him in a state and he’s rushed off to the airport so didn’t dtd. He feels awful and I’m trying to act like I’m cool with it but I’m really upset. It means we dtd 2 days before O and that is it.

I think spotting is quite normal in early pregnancy, so try not to worry (easier said than done I know). Your positive CB is a really good sign because they aren’t super sensitive xx

Natty83 · 04/04/2023 13:45

@AlleycatMarie 2 days before O is in that 2-day most fertile period, the sperm will have been waiting for your egg when it popped out - everything else is down to luck, you did everything you needed to. There's only 1 winning ticket and your ticket is in the draw. Completely understandable to be upset when things don't go to plan but you're in with as much chance this month as any other. Fingers crossed and baby dust to you 💐 xx

thanks for adding me in again … 3DPO testing Easter Monday 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Which would be crazy early, I just know it’s the earliest I’d potentially see anything
The week is so far moving quickly let’s hope that continues 🙈

AlleycatMarie · 04/04/2023 16:10

Aww thanks @Natty83 and @Floralsandsmiles I hadn’t looked at it like that but you’re right; I am in the draw!!! Thanks for giving me hope ladies xxx

Natty83 · 05/04/2023 07:23

To everyone obsessing over progression on these tests, these were all dipped in the same pot - bfn on frer, so assumed all was lost, ic gave me the strongest line I've had yet, and then did a digital to try to work out which one was faulty 🤦‍♀️ Will be taking my own advice and stepping away from the pee sticks

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 07:34

@Natty83 my FRER came back vvvf faint today but IC is a good positive. Not sure if I've had a chemical but so confused 😔

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 07:35

There is clear progression on my IC so but FRER has gone lighter than yesterdays, got an appt at the EPU this morning as I've had the spotting as well.

The photos below with the IC, top one was last night, second one was first thing this morning (strongest line) and 3/4 were 30 mins later after a coffee so weren't expecting them to be strong.

TunnocksTCake · 05/04/2023 08:03

@Angelselevenx I hope all is ok and it's just dud tests. Let us know how you get on xxx

@Natty83 that's crazy! Are they easy@home ones? Congrats either way!!

@AlleycatMarie I agree, you hit one of the best days so definitely not out!

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 09:12

I've just done another digital and it says not pregnant after yesterday showing as pregnant 1-2. Looks like I had a chemical 😢 sending positive vibes to everyone else xx

Natty83 · 05/04/2023 09:28

@Angelselevenx I'm so sorry. Please let us know what they say at EPU, you never know, there are definitely some faulty tests flying around with all these inconsistencies. Love and hugs xx

Natty83 · 05/04/2023 09:29

@TunnocksTCake they are Wondflo. Don't know which ones to trust! Two FRERs this morning both BFN.

@TunnocksTCake thanks!! How are you doing?

@Angelselevenx I am so sorry. I hope the EPU can give you some clarity. Sending hugs.

@Natty83 how confusing!! Definitely step away from the tests if you can!!!

xx

bringmearainbow · 05/04/2023 10:45

@Natty83 that is very very confusing because the digital is obv positive and the ic has a lovely line. What dpo are you?

@Angelselevenx aww lovely I'm sorry. The EPU will likely blood test you and then do another in 48 hours to see if hcg is progressing. I will say those weeks digitals need a fair amount of hcg so if you've done another today on a short hold you just might not have built up enough concentration for it to say pregnant. I really hope it sticks for you big hugs xx

Mummyme87 · 05/04/2023 10:57

I’m sorry @Angelselevenx be kind to yourself

5dpo today 👌🏻

Angelselevenx · 05/04/2023 11:07

@bringmearainbow I should have at least 10miu/ml by 15dpo though, it was a squeezed out wee in fairness but you would've thought that would still show as pregnant especially as yesterdays fmu showed 1-2 weeks. Just in the waiting room now so will see what they say for some confirmation xx

bringmearainbow · 05/04/2023 11:10

@Angelselevenx I think the weeks digis need either 25 or 50 🤔 big hugs let us know what they say xxx

bringmearainbow · 05/04/2023 11:16

@Mummyme87 how's your tww going?

Mummyme87 · 05/04/2023 11:25

@bringmearainbow all good. Nothing to report, no sore boobs, usual Ewcm discharge around day 4/5. All normal stuff really. I try not to symptom spot as I know it’s all bullshit anyway. We are away this week so fairly occupied and not thinking about it too much. How about you?

bringmearainbow · 05/04/2023 11:35

@Mummyme87 ahhh that's perfect time to be away have you gone anywhere nice? mine is going slowly but I have a busy couple of days after today so hopefully before I know it it will be Saturday 🤞🏼 I'm the same with the symptom spotting I have done it in the past and it means nada. I have nothing unusual going on here. Normal creamy CM and boobs started hurting yesterday which is very usual for me all very boring 😆

I am 5DPO today, trying not to symptom spot... I have quite alot of CM and some poking and pulling in my left ovary. But who knows... xxx

Natty83 · 05/04/2023 12:16

@bringmearainbow 15dpo today, had my first squinter at 13dpo so early days. It is a bit strange. I guess I have to wait and see what happens, there's just so much waiting and I'm not very good at it haha.
