@Bumblebee413 gutted for you. Especially as hopes were high, take care

TT82 · 01/07/2023 10:07

@Bumblebee413 oh lots of hugs ❤️

Eirlys1986 · 01/07/2023 10:49

@Bumblebee413 oh sucks boo! 😢, really sorry. Like you say, time for unicorn tear margaritas and looking forward to seeing OH soon xxxx
@LeopardLover thanks, very kind of you to say friend 👍🏻, I reckon you’re pretty decent too 😆 🦄 x
@Pineappleapple Yeh I think there’s no harm in going to the clinic. I’m not over reading stuff before I go but have had a look at some data around progesterone in future pregnancy etc just so I don’t get sold something I’m not sure of just because it’s private. My OH took proceive max for old guys (35 at the time and now 37) for our first baby 😂 even though he is also healthy, can’t say whether it helped or not. He’s on magnesium/cod liver and a general multi vitamin now. We decided to put him on the multi vitamins as he has a varicocele so wanted to give his swimmers every chance of being top class 😂

Bumblebee413 · 01/07/2023 10:58

Thank you! I mainly feel like an absolute tit- I was so convinced and felt that the tests almost didn’t matter because I ‘felt it’ in myself. What an ejjit! 😂

Eirlys1986 · 01/07/2023 11:03

@Bumblebee413 you are most certainly not a tit but I know what you feel like. Mother Nature sure makes us all feel titty. On the regular for me at the moment 😂

LeopardLover · 01/07/2023 12:32

@Eirlys1986 Thank you 🥰

Ladies, I made a big mistake. I'm pretty bored today because my DH is ill and wants a relaxing day at home. I decided to have an (unusually) lazy morning too. I have no pregnancy symptoms other than strange pins and needles type cramping (probably AF as I'm 12DPO), and obviously it's a strange time of day to test with diluted wee but... Boredom. I just sneakily wee'd on a cheapie. A cheapie that is known for indents... Also, I don't ever test early because of chemicals (I'd rather not know) but here I am, with a squinter. So, here's my squinter / indent. Tell me it's probably an indent? I wish I'd never tested now 🙈 this is between us 🤐

@LeopardLover it looks definitely positive to me and not an indent!!!!! ❤️

But I understand cautiousness after cp..... fingers crossed!!! Xx

LeopardLover · 01/07/2023 12:56

@TT82 Thank you, however, I just went to Amazon and saw tons of false positives that look just like this one. 😅 With colour and within the time frame! Maybe I'll pee on a FRER tomorrow. Ideally I'd wait until Monday. x

TT82 · 01/07/2023 12:59

@LeopardLover oh really, then better to wait till Monday...
i have never had a false one, always if there's a shadow- there was a pregnancy..😅

DmcinT · 01/07/2023 13:14

@LeopardLover id say it deff looks like a positive too but then I’ve never seen a false positive/evap line so I’d assume any line is a pregnancy 😅 keeping everything crossed for u 🙏🏽❤️

Eirlys1986 · 01/07/2023 13:39

@LeopardLover that doesn’t look like an indent to me. Looks positive! Tentative congratulations to you if so! 🎉 Good luck with the Frer, I couldn’t wait till tomorrow or Monday ! 😂 xxx

LeopardLover · 01/07/2023 13:47

@TT82 @DmcinT @Eirlys1986 Thanks ladies! It's a bit annoying false positives with colour are a thing with these. I'll try again tomorrow 😅 ideally Monday if I can!

TT82 · 01/07/2023 13:52

@LeopardLover maybe digital? Those are always good for me as I am rubbish at line reading 😅

LeopardLover · 01/07/2023 13:55

@TT82 So I normally wait a while for digital because they are pricey haha. But you're right, they are nice and clear! I'll try to be patient. I'll get a digital next weekend if no AF (lol you know it'll arrive tomorrow). I might dip a cheapie in tap water tomorrow for the lolz.

Bumblebee413 · 01/07/2023 14:23

Ooh! @LeopardLover it does look positive- keeping everything crossed for you! Glastonbaby!! ❤️x

Eirlys1986 · 01/07/2023 14:40

Ahhh yes @Bumblebee413 I forgot that! Fingers crossed for glastonbaby 🌸 @LeopardLover x

SnookyPook · 01/07/2023 14:57

@LeopardLover Eeek!! I would have also said that was a definite positive! However I'm also very naive about all the false positive evap stuff... Everything crossed for you and Glastonbaby! So exciting! 😃

LeopardLover · 01/07/2023 15:05

@Eirlys1986 @Bumblebee413 @SnookyPook Glastonbaby 🤣🤣🤣 love that! ✌️🎪🎶 I've found my first response tests and an outdated digital test (haha). All ready for tomorrow! 🤓 Watch this space. Although all the negative reviews of the Internet cheapies (& no symptoms) have me doubtful.

Eirlys1986 · 01/07/2023 15:08

@LeopardLover good luck! Fingers crossed for you xxx

RoseH36 · 01/07/2023 17:11

@Bumblebee413 sorry to hear AF has arrived and you aren't daft at all. I had so many weird twinges and things when we first started trying again and was convinced I had to be pregnant. No idea if it was my mind playing tricks on me or not.

Eirlys1986 · 02/07/2023 08:31

@LeopardLover did you test this morning? The suspense is killing me! 😆

LeopardLover · 02/07/2023 08:38

@Eirlys1986 Thank you for checking in - apparently #Glastonbaby is a go! 😂💜 Goes without saying that I'm extremely cautious because AF isn't even due until tomorrow. I wasn't even going to tell DH (I tested at 5.30am) but I'm rubbish at keeping secrets from him. 😊

We'll see how things go! I won't be telling anyone else (except you lovely lot) 😅 xx

Eirlys1986 · 02/07/2023 08:48

@LeopardLover yaaayyy! That is such a fantastic line for this early. Amazing. So happy for you 😊. Have a lovely Sunday with your family xxxx

Pineappleapple · 02/07/2023 08:52
