I can see lots of TWW threads for end of April but I thought I’d start one for any of us who are 1dpo in early May.

I’m 1dpo today. Fourth cycle of trying for second baby. Ovulation day came a week early for us this week, but we DTD 3 times in the fertile window so I’m hopeful.

I don’t remember getting any early symptoms with my last pregnancy.

I usually test waaaay too much. So get ready to see loads of iffy faint lines -ha!

What about you?

Interesting about FRER - they were the go to test when I had DS (that and the Superdrug early testing - which I've heard are terrible now). The indents and evaps are so so heartbreaking - I've had so many evaps on the Easy@Home ones but I know what to expect with them and don't get my hopes up as I'm a chronic line spotter. I've half convinced myself a probably indent on my FRER is a possible vvvvvvvv faint line 😂

PollyDarton1 · 13/05/2023 18:05

This is my probable indent test

I wonder if some people are more prone to indents than others… I’ve never had an indent with easy@home and I did quite a few last month and a couple so far this month.. maybe I don’t have indenty wee 🤷🏻‍♀️

TreeRose · 13/05/2023 19:56

Hey everyone, so I'm 9dpo and cd 22 today. I've had some random symptoms over the last few days, predominantly on my right side. Some twinges a few days ago, then yesterday evening I started getting mild but persistent pains in my vaginal canal (sorry tmi!!) and some in my labia - I expect this is from increased blood flow?? And then today I've been very weepy, lethargic as hell, burning nipples, and had a mild burning sensation around my right ovary for several hours, then suddenly quite a strong quick burst/thump of pain just above where the burning had been and now it's all calmed down, I feel more energetic, the anxiety has calmed down, and my boobs aren't as sore. Anyone get anything similar?

HavinKittens · 13/05/2023 21:19

Hi @TreeRose I never really have that many symptoms so I’m the wrong person to ask. The burning/thump sounds a little scary?

yeah @Hazelnuttella ive never had indents with easy@home either, when I get a line with those it means I’m deffo pregnant.

I did another cheap test this evening and nothing, nowt, nil points (euro style)

TreeRose · 13/05/2023 21:32

@HavinKittens thanks for replying. So the burning was mild and the thump was quite dull. It was definitely weird. All my pmt symptoms are usually emotional, so don't really know what to do with all this physical stuff!

Lina9 · 14/05/2023 05:02

I couldn’t sleep since it is the morning of 9dpo. Vfl?!

Ou yea @Lina9 there’s a second line for sure. Exciting! Does it look pink in person?

I’ve had another BFN this morning 😔10dpo so could still test positive tomorrow but I’m not hopeful. I just don’t feel like I’m pregnant. My BBT is dropping as well,

Hazelnuttella · 14/05/2023 06:21

10dpo here and I think I’ve had a negative test, and possibly my first indent.

Had the faintest of faint lines on easy@home. So faint I was pretty sure I was imagining it at first. Too faint to see if it had any colour.

Trying to think of it as a negative test and will try again tomorrow 😬

Hazelnuttella · 14/05/2023 06:24

That looks like a line @Lina9 ! I’ve not used those tests though so not sure how pink they’re meant to go.

@HavinKittens sorry you’re not feeling hopefully, the waiting is horrible isn’t it. Have you got any nice weekend plans?

PollyDarton1 · 14/05/2023 07:46

@Lina9 that is definitely a line!

I've also had another BFN this morning, feeling despondent as I feel so pregnant 😂 I'm 13 DPO so pretty academic at this point, I was certain I'd get a line this morning 😕

Congratulations!

optimisticchanger · 14/05/2023 08:20

It's a bfn for me this morning.
I'm going to try to wait until at least Tuesday before testing again now. And get a pink dye.

Bellabeemarie · 14/05/2023 09:12

Morning ladies hope your all well, 5dpo and I feel absolutely fine! Dont feel like this is the month for us atall 😩🤦‍♀️ I wont be testing until fri and af will be due mon/Tue xxx

HavinKittens · 14/05/2023 09:59

Okay so probs nothing and barely visible but I checked my cheapie test from this morning and there is a very faint but definite line. I’ve not really had an indent on these tests before but I know other people do, and it’s well past the reading time. BUT I promised you bad pictures of dodgy lines so I’m giving the people what they want 😂

Hope it’s ok I join, I think I’m 10/11 dpo and couldn’t resist texting this morning 🙈
@Lina9 I deff see a line there, I’d be taking that as a deff positive.

I’ve attached my test below, sometimes I think I see something and others I thinks it’s definitely a bfn, anyone see anything?

Hi @DmcinT thanks for joining us
I can see a line but I don’t have any experience with those tests. Are they usually stark white for you when negative?

OP posts:
CinderRosie · 14/05/2023 10:51

@Lina9 definite a line right there, congratulations!

@DmcinT I see something there, fingers crossed for you.

9DPO for me today and had a dream that I tested today and got a strong BFP. In reality I am feeling very PMSish with cramps, sore boobs and tiredness. Also feeling irritable with DH 😂

DmcinT · 14/05/2023 11:07

@CinderRosie i have the same type symptoms and was sure af was coming Friday (cramps were so bad in the morning) but no af yet. I normally wouldn’t have any af like symptoms until the day I get it. Do u normally have those before ur period?

@HavinKittens the lines are such a torture but deff a less expensive alternative. I’ve just cracked and tested too early, it’ll deff be another few days before that darkens (that’s if there’s anything there🙈)

thanks for the replies x

fleur89 · 14/05/2023 11:08

@Lina9 congratulations, that line looks pretty clear to me 💗 Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone else testing over the next few days.

I'm only 4dpo and feel absolutely normal, actually I feel great and very energetic 😆 1dpo-3dpo I had all sorts of symptoms - lethargy, nausea, cramping, twinges, insomnia, bloating, gassy, etc. but today I woke up feeling totally normal and it's so confusing. I guess what I experienced before today was to do with ovulation.

I see a real squinter of a line!

PollyDarton1 · 14/05/2023 12:47

@HavinKittens that looks very similar to the lines I've been having on Easy@Home tests. They definitely do indent sometimes so I'd probably follow up with another tomorrow to see if it's stronger (mine haven't gotten stronger).

PollyDarton1 · 14/05/2023 12:49

These are my tests this morning. Top one is a LH one - don't know why but I always test FMU with an ovulation stick as my cycle is so out of whack sometimes, and I actually found just before I got a BFP with my son that I was testing near to positive with LH!

How many days PO are you?

i found the same was DS i would test positive with LH on ovulation test which is what actually prompted me to do a pregnancy test.

FINGERS CROSSED FOR YOU!

PollyDarton1 · 14/05/2023 13:12

@Optimistic66 I'm 12dpo so it's unlikely I'm pregnant really Sad
