1dpo, anyone else? 😊

[Pinkmoon23]

Hi guys, just looking for some cycle buddies. This will be our 3rd cycle hoping for that BFP 🤞. I think I'm either ovulating today or 1dpo... I got my darkest opk yesterday morning (CD13) but we had my sons birthday trip away camping so I wasn't able to repeat the test to see if I got my peak in the evening. I'm presuming I would have. I haven't had a temp rise yet, so I think I'll get one tomorrow if I ovulated today. It's all a bit confusing 😅. Anyway, it'd be cool to have someone to wait with!

@Pinkmoon23 ahh it's so worrying isn't it. My fingers are crossed for you xx

BFN for me on FRER at 10dpo so pretty sure I'm out now. Just ordered more OPKs ready to get cracking next cycle.

Thank you ❤️
I didn't even have a squinter of a line until 12dpo so you're not out yet! 🤞 My frer were totally stark white at 10dpo and 11dpo. I know maybe not super encouraging given my situation but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you ☺️

Digi came up negative ☹️ Really gutted. After a 4 hour hold. I have got a faint line on an easy at home IC. I should have saved the digi for tomorrow but I couldn't wait. Don't think this is a good sign ☹️

You really ought to stop testing for a couple of days, you are going to drive yourself mad xx

@Pinkmoon23 I agree with the other and think it's best to stop testing. I hate to say it but I think you should prepare for a chemical.
Like you said before at least you can get pregnant. I also read some studies stating your more fertile 3 months after a loss so please don't give up hope.
Really sorry this one hasn't worked out :( i inderstand how crushing it is.treat yourself to some chocolate and wine.

@Kiwiburgh I'm going to stop testing for a while if tomorrows test is faint again. I'm trying to remember that Hcg doubles every 48 to 72 hours so realistically I guess my progression isn't too bad so far. I'm tempted to get wine but I think I'll hold off considering right now I'm currently pregnant. It might very well be a chemical but it might also just be a late implantation and slow grower... I get what you mean with preparing myself, I just don't want to loose hope yet ☹️

If it is a chemical will my period start as normal? I'm due tomorrow...

@Pinkmoon23 with how faint the lines are on the FR's, the digital is 100% going to say negative right now because of how much Hcg they need to detect.
In the past, the best tests I have used are the FRs and Amazon cheap ones.
I just think you're not seeing much progression because maybe you're testing too much.
If you really need to test then I'd do it in the mornings ( and only the mornings) or leave it at least a day in between.
Good luck, hope it works out for you x

@Pinkmoon23 af came 2 days later after my chemical :(

@Pinkmoon23 how are you? any news from this morning?

I got what I think is an indent today. Barely there no real colour and didn't come up straight away. By 11 DPO in prev pregnancies I've had v clear lines. I've convinced myself next cycle would work better anyway so want CD1 to just hurry up now.

My indent

@pinkandredflowers that's a nasty indent :( , are you going to test again tomorrow just incase?

Thank you ❤️ Yeah that's very true. I was figuring the faint lines were probably detecting the lowest level that frer can detect, which would be 6. And that was on Thursday morning. So if Hcg doubles every 48 to 72 hours, by now my Hcg would only be in the 20s. Obviously complete estimations 😂 but digi wouldn't have detected it yesterday!

So sorry you had to go through that 🙁Chemicals are the worst. I'm thinking next cycle if this one isn't successful I'm going to only test the day (if) my period doesn't come. Then I won't even know I'm having a chemical. It's so mentally overwhelming. How're you feeling today by the way? Any pregnancy symptoms yet? 🥰

Ugh frer indents are so frustrating! 🙁 How long did it take to show up? It does look similar to my line at 12dpo, I'm really hoping for you it's not an indent and it'll darken! 🤞 Are you planning on testing again?

Hey guys, thanks for everyone's support and messages ❤️. I was in such a bad head space yesterday. Hormones aren't helping I don't think 😂! Feeling better and more accepting today of whatever will be will be. I just hope if this is a chemical that I get my period soon so I can move past this, I've never had a faint line before so it's all been so overwhelming!

I just tested with internet cheapies this morning and got 2 more faint lines, same as yesterday. So who knows 😅.
I guess I can conclude that I am definitely pregnant (unless I've gotten about 8 very nasty indents) but it's likely it may not be a viable pregnancy.

How's everyone else doing today?

My temp is also still up I forgot to mention...

I tested again on a frer and my line at 13dpo is slightly lighter 😔 I'm hoping this Is normal and not an early loss sign.Going to give it 48hrs before the next one then I'll be out of tests so no more.

I'm glad your In a better head space today though 🥰 For me I felt so relieved when af arrived and I could start a fresh.

My latest tests with 13dpo a bit lighter 😞

I wouldn't take that to mean anything at all honestly. They are strong lines and HCG doesn't double exactly every 24h.

My AF isn't here yet, I'm 4 days late. I got a BFN yesterday and I'm done testing, as clearly I can't be pregnant at this point. I'm thinking I might have a cyst going on that's messing my cycles (I have PCOS). I'm thinking I'm going to leave the thread since I'm not actually ttc and don't want to intrude, it was just a miscalculation this month.
I'm so invested in all your stories though and I wish you all the best of luck. If we decide to actually start trying properly I'll find you lot again, though hopefully you'll all be on a pregnancy thread by then! ❤️

I know it must be so worrying after last time, but honestly I think those lines look really good. 13dpo doesn't look lighter to me from the photo! 🥰. I was told when comparing tests to take away the inbetween tests and only compare every 48 hours 😊. So I guess if Hcg only doubles every 48-72 hours you won't see much or any progression between 12 and 13. Maybe hide 12dpo for your own sanity! 😅

Really sorry to hear, I hope you're feeling OK and if it is a cyst it's just one that goes away by itself. You're definitely not intruding, and thank you for all your replies 🥰 If I'm still trying when you start, track me down for sure! 😆 I'll be updating here either way with my situation, always annoying when you don't get the end of the story (or the beginning hah). All the best ☺️

So tmi but I've just noticed (infact it was DH that pointed it out 😂) but my areolas are way bigger and WAY darker. Like quite a big difference! Hoping this is a good sign 😂

Tonight's tests, I'm 15dpo. It's even darker and pinker in person... Still unsure!

That’s looking really good @Pinkmoon23 !
