1DPO - Anyone want to wait with me ☺

BABYPRAYING · 29/04/2023 15:21

Hi ladies,

First month catching positive LH to confirm my ovulation. We DTD two days before but unfortunately not on ovulation day. I'm hoping I'm still in with a chance. Currently 1DPO. Love anyone to join me for the painful waiting game of testing and also symptom spot/share stories of successful pregnancies.

I'm going to stop testing for a while. I'm stressing myself out so much it can't be healthy. Constantly doing tests to see if the line has got darker/lighter. I feel exhausted today.

Oh you poor thing! I would feel exactly the same. I think try to give it a few days if you can 💜 hopefully when you check again you'll be really happy with the progression.

@BabyNo2please23 Welcome! Loads of time for you to still test positive 😊 how old is your first? I'm TTC #2 too! This will be my first proper month with OPKs but cycle 2 really! I still have ages to wait as I'm CD8!

BabyNo2please23 · 12/05/2023 20:36

@LeopardLover
Mine is 19months, how about yours?
Keeping Everything crossed for you this cycle 🥰 x

LeopardLover · 12/05/2023 20:41

@BabyNo2please23 Awwww, lovely. He just turned 2! The sass level has risen 😅 thank you! ❤️ Fingers crossed you only have a few more days to wait for that BFP! X

PeacefulD · 12/05/2023 20:43

I also got positive opk day after smiley. I think clear blue is specific to how your lh is changing, so tracks the line and when the increase is large enough it puts a smiley. While actual lh amount was higher for me next day, so I'm going by opk or ic. I'm 11 dpo today, haven't tested yet, hopefully tomorrow...

@LeopardLover

@PeacefulD fingers crossed for you tomorrow 🥰

LeopardLover · 12/05/2023 21:07

@BabyNo2please23 No way, she sounds adventurous 🤣 no one wants a boring kid anyway 😉 At least we have a whole to come to terms with our decisions once we get pregnant 😅

@PeacefulD Good luck for testing! You're so close! I'm going to use old school OPKs first this time.

PeacefulD · 12/05/2023 23:05

Congratulations @BABYPRAYING and @PeacefulD

I also tested today and it's also darker. Got a couple of faint positives on 25 miU tests so I guess it's time to relax about testing!

@BABYPRAYING amazing 😊 hopefully it will all be fine

PeacefulD · 13/05/2023 08:23

Thanks so much! I just felt really odd last night and couldn't wait to test. Line is faint, so I really do hope it gets darker. I decided to wait till Monday to test, as I really need a good weekend, so got lots of activities planned.
Photos here. Clearblue is early detection so 10miu.

Congrats @PeacefulD @xLJ1990x &@BABYPRAYING ❤️

Another BFN for me 😔 12 or 13 dpo.

xLJ1990x · 13/05/2023 09:59

@PeacefulD a busy weekend sounds great! It can be hard to distract yourself from testing.

@Pinkmoon23 sorry to hear it. How's the bbt going?

Pinkmoon23 · 13/05/2023 10:06

@xLJ1990x thankyou, to be honest I didn't even bother taking it this morning. I just feel so disheartened, trying to keep my mind off it. The FRER indents are so bad too, it's making me think I have faint lines when I don't. Meh. Congratulations to you though, how're you feeling?

xLJ1990x · 13/05/2023 12:22

@Pinkmoon23 The indents sound super frustrating. I've never done an FRER. Are the indents on them before you pee on them as well?

Thank you :) I woke up super early this morning, possibly because I fell asleep and had a nap yesterday morning. When I woke I felt a bit nauseated with hunger, but generally feeling calm and happy. Boobs are possibly a bit more sensitive but I feel like it's coming and going. Have no idea if they're bigger or anything - feeling confused as to what's normal after the chemical last month.

Have you got any nice plans this weekend?

@Pinkmoon23 thank you lovely. I'm starting to chill out a little now I think x

How are you?

Pinkmoon23 · 13/05/2023 13:16

@BABYPRAYING that's good, I think you can too there's definitely progression 😊 pleased for you!

I'm OK. I'm trying not to over think things and not think the worst but it's hard. I'm impatient and an over-thinker by nature so not the best ttc journey! But it's early days yet for us trying. I guess I'm just worried as I'm coming up to 35 this year too. I want AF to hurry up and arrive so I can get focused on next months attempts! 😂
