Really sorry if I’ve missed anyone xx

I'm with you @HavinKittens time is dragging! It's too early for true symptoms as well so we are just in limbo waiting to get closer for AF. I just keep thinking, this time next week, if I'm not spotting I'll be getting quite 👀

I mean I feel like I’m imagining things so please feel free to tell me to go and find another hobby until AF shows 😂

Ooo I feel like I can see something on the inverted one @CurlyWurly1991!

Thank you for your lovely messages everyone ♥️

@CurlyWurly1991 I feel I can see something v faint on both pics!

Yes I can see it. Hope you get something clearer on the boots test x

ok!! Thanks well I think I will wait for FMU tomorrow for the boots test when I will be 14dpo which is my recommended test date on fertility friend, (assuming AF won’t have arrived of course). Is it still recommended to test first thing or is afternoon/evening better? That squinted was early afternoon after not doing a wee for about 2h.

The more concentrated your wee the better so first wee in the morning is best. That’s my understanding anyway.

@CurlyWurly1991 I see a faint line. Please keep us updated 😁 x

Am I right in thinking this is just dye run? I’m pretty sure I’m out this cycle but will try again first thing tomorrow with a 5 day early test.

@Abs014 omg I don't know, can you do another test ! Exciting !!!

@Goldie1234 I’ve seen so many tests on this website but none that look like this! I will try again in the morning 😊

@CurlyWurly1991 keeping everything crossed for you! Let us know how you get on!

@Abs014 hmmm! I mean it definitely has colour but yes it’s a bit fuzzy. I’m not sure! Have you done any other tests this cycle? (Sorry if I’ve forgotten)

@HavinKittens thats what I thought. It’s almost pixilated! No worries! Nope, no other tests, I’m 9DPO so still early really but as I had convinced myself I’m out, I thought I’d do one to confirm and then I can chill till next cycle and get thrown this curve ball! I’ve had cramping and back ache but that’s about it!

@LA7887 I know, they can be a pain to remember to do regularly!!

Well thankfully I didn't get round to doing one yet, as AF has just shown up! 36 day cycle so must still be sorting itself out while I'm bf. At least I know where I'm at now! Not 100% sure whether to start TTC this month or next, as I don't want to be bloated and not feeling great on holiday at the end of the month if we are successful. Will maybe give it a casual go and also just figure out my cycle with OPKs but try properly next month! We conceived second cycle for DS1 and first cycle for DS2 so that's why I maybe sound a bit crackers with the specific planning. I'm aware though that we are another couple of years older though and that could make a difference with how easy it is this time 🤷‍♀️

@Abs014 that is an ambiguous one, I haven’t seen one like that. Not a negative though. Definitely worth a re test!
@GinAndBearIt90 totally understand wanting to plan but like you say there are always things that you can’t know. Taking an easy going approach while on holiday sounds good though!!

Morning everyone. Another day, another DPO! 😂
6DPO for me today. Woke up absolutely exhausted even though I slept a good 7 hours. BBT has also shot up today. I feel I am on high alert for any implantation sensations as Flo says implantation could start tomorrow but I've learnt from last two cycles that twinges etc mean absolutely nothing really as AF has always rocked up....

@Abs014 any news on today's test?

Morning! 6dpo here too. Temp is steady. Had my Blood test done and hopefully will get the result tomorrow.
This middle bit of the 2ww really drags!

It's dragging more than ever this month for some reason. I've got work today tomorrow and Saturday then two days off, which I hope will go quicker. By the time I am then back at work Tuesday I'll be 11DPO and if I am out this month I will probably have started my pre-AF spotting. Feel like I'm wishing my life away lol.

I know what you mean. Always counting days when you’re ttc. I have told myself I won’t test until after the wedding I am going to on Saturday.

getting my nails done right now, which is a major treat now a days

3dpo today and another day 🫣

Has anyone else noticed how hard it is to get hold of first response tests now? They are literally nowhere!

@HavinKittens ooh lovely, what colour have you gone for?
@Unicorn25 I've read on other threads that they've been discontinued, they seemed to throw out sooo many evaps maybe that is why? I last got some on Amazon but this was several months ago. If I need to test this month I'm going to go for a Boots Early Detection or whatever they're called. Apparently they don't give evaps and are still pink dye.

This is the colours in the dress I’m wearing. I wanted a peachy pink to match but the result looks more a bright pink than I thought it would. Still, it was nice to be pampered.

Yes I also noticed less FRER around. The last lot I bought were reduced in boots and I wondered if they were being discontinued.

I think the boots earlies are the new FRER! Although they’re not quite as sensitive.

the colour actually looks better in photos
I am clearly nit picking!
