@Hotmalibu94 this is our first.
He already has a son from a previous marriage but lives away and doesn’t see him often.
We’re going to Florida in 44 days, so if it’s not a BFP this time then at least I have that to look forward to and be able to enjoy the rides with DH. But equally if it’s a BFP it’s just an excuse to go back so I’ll happily skip the rides and sit to one side knowing I’m growing a little bean.

Hotmalibu94 · 26/07/2023 21:15

@Ncl31 ahhh so exciting to be your first together 💕 this is our first, no previous DC. Ah yeah amazing, it's nice to have something to look forward to if it does end up BFN, makes it easier that way I find. But hopefully you can sit out on the sidelines growing tiny bean 💕
Just talked to my DH and we are going to test Friday I think if nothing happens tomorrow. Just because last time I was late it turned up the next day, at least this way it'll be two days late if I test Friday!

Ncl31 · 26/07/2023 21:38

@Hotmalibu94 good luck, I hope you get your BFP! Let us know how you get on.

This might be TMI, but when I went to the toilet earlier I felt “wet” I was worried as had dried up the last few days, could be the start of a new symptom - hopefully

july89 · 27/07/2023 07:30

Feel like I might be out now. 13 dpo and BFN - don't know why but really thought this was the one so has hit a bit hard. AF not due until Monday but had a BFP by now in my other pregnancies so don't want to get my hopes up. Annoyingly we're not together at the right times to even try next month I don't think!

july89 · 27/07/2023 07:44

Although maybe I'm wrong....do we think that's an evap line....

Morning everyone!
18dpo and AF not here yet. Figured I might as well take a test and see where we're at. Looks like a BFN on a frer. But when I shine my phone torch behind the little viewing box, I can see a shadow of a line where the positive line is meant to come up. I thought I was making it up in my head but DH sees it too (he also thinks I'm mad to have even thought of doing that). I've been doing that to all my BFN frer's so far and never seen that shadow. So not sure if it's the start of a late positive or if I'm just desperate for answers because AF isn't here yet 😅
Have any of your done the same thing and has it gone on to be a BFP?

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 08:20

@july89 I can see a shadow there, but not sure if its EVAP or not..

Sminbags · 27/07/2023 09:25

Morning! 10dpo for me today (I think I got my dates wrong) my period was irregular last month so today would usually be my first day, bfn this morning though.

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 09:40

@Sminbags same here I think one app says 10 dpo another says 12 but BFN for a few days now. AF is not due till monday but not feeling so positive anymore but we’ll see

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 10:05

If we are going off of Flo I'm 16dpo today. I tested BFN on 11dpo and decided I was out... Until now 😅
I'm headachy (but a low level constant rather than my usual migraine at AF time), backachy, was crampy a few days before AF was due but that's now settled right down, and yesterday and today I've felt quite sick. AF was predicted for Tuesday so 🤞
Going to test this weekend and hoping for a BFP even though I was so adamant I wasn't pregnant 😂

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 10:11

@Ncl31 fingers crossed for you! I think that is a symptom so hopefully!

@july89 I can see a shadow so fingers crossed for you that it progresses!

@Myna13 how frustrating, when was AF due? Hopefully something pops up over the next few days, you do hear of people getting positives really late after AF so you never know!

satellitesunshine · 27/07/2023 10:15

morning all! 11dpo and bfn here. really thought i’d seen something on yesterdays test 😅 counting myself out and already ordered next months opks and chocolate ready for AF. good luck to everyone else x

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 10:32

@Hotmalibu94 fingers crossed for you! AF is due monday for me and I’ve used cheapies so far and all BFN. Have been having symptoms but now I’m wondering if it’s nothing.

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 12:09

@satellitesunshine it's still early so don't count yourself out yet! (Says me 😂 I spent £40 on the Natural Cycles Bluetooth thermometer and now I'm waiting to POAS tomorrow as AF is late after all 😂😂😂)

@CatiaR thank you! I keep seeing people saying that the cheapies aren't picking things up as well as the FRERs etc so I just don't think they're that sensitive (even when they're meant to be!). What symptoms are you having? Still a few days until AF so 🤞🤞🤞

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 12:09

I've just gone to the toilet and there's a bit of spotting. Hoping it's not AF coming late to spite me 😭

Biscuitbeann · 27/07/2023 12:16

Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone!

I have a question about CM and hoping someone who is a bit more knowledgeable than me could help!

So last cycle I don’t really recall noticing a much CM wise after ovulation maybe small amounts of a thicker creamy consistency but not enough to ever log on my app. I’m 6 or 7dpo today and noticed my underwear is wet from CM alot more - almost as much as when I ovulated last cycle! Any thoughts?

I track my BBT and also was taking opk kits so I don’t think I’ve miss calculated my ovulation day and I feel cycle day 22 is late for ovulation could this be a super early pregnancy symptom? or am I being crazy?

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 12:20

@Hotmalibu94 i really hope so!

my boobs have been mega sore for like a week now, need to pee constantly and that’s not usual for me. I’m really tired and having breakouts which is not that common for me either, and today I got some backache which could be unrelated not sure.

but I never get any symptoms before AF is due ( last month I forgot it was meant to come until i went to the toilet 😂)

yeah I bought the cheapies and been using since its still early but can’t get any frers and seen bad reviews so i got boots early detection to use over the weekend. A cb digital if AF is late.

fingers crossed for us waiting

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 14:10

@CatiaR that's loads of good signs then 🤞

I think AF is coming 😭 brown discharge currently but it started as just a bit when I wiped and now I can feel it as there's more now. Still not red period type blood but I think I need to accept this is probably gearing up to it.

I'm so frustrated. I was totally accepting that it hadn't happened this month until AF was late and I started feeling sick. Then I got my hopes up again and now it's even worse. 😩

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 14:37

@Hotmalibu94 hopefully, maybe the cheapie tests aren't good or maybe its not my month, I guess only time will tell

ahh sorry, fingers crossed for you next month then if AF does come

Myna13 · 27/07/2023 16:20

@Hotmalibu94 it definitely is frustrating! AF was due last Friday. Keep us updated with your tests this weekend! Hoping for a BFP for you!

@CatiaR your symptoms do sound really positive! Keeping my fingers crossed you get a BFP soon!

@july89 I'm sorry, but I can't quite tell from that picture. Definitely do another test with fmu tomorrow and hopefully you will see a strong line! Fingers crossed for you too! Keep us posted

july89 · 27/07/2023 16:28

I know @Myna13 I think I'm losing the plot and seeing things haha! This one shows what I'm seeing slightly better but defo 99% certain it's not a real thing. On holiday now so just going to try and ignore it until AF due on Monday!

Join me on the TWW :)
Myna13 · 27/07/2023 16:32

@july89 I can see the line like a shadow much clearer on this picture!! I think by Monday you should definitely have a darker line! I'm so excited for you!! Enjoy your holiday, and I'm quite confident you will come home for a massive BFP!

Hotmalibu94 · 27/07/2023 16:56

AF has definitely arrived. So upsetting 😞
On to the next cycle anyway! Going to go back to BBT this month as a bit of a tracker.

CatiaR · 27/07/2023 17:02

@Myna13 hope so and that my body isn’t being weird.

@july89 can definitely see a line! Congrats 🎉

@Hotmalibu94 sorry! Fingers crossed for next month!

Ncl31 · 27/07/2023 17:06

@july89 i can see a line on that picture, congratulations.

@Hotmalibu94 I’m so sorry AF has arrived. Keep in touch, I’m going to try BBT next month too. Although I’m 9DPO I’ve convinced myself I’m out this cycle.
move felt exhausted today and had a dull headache most of the day but I’ve never really took much notice how I usually feel leading up to AF before but I feel this could just be that for me. I’ve not got any breast tenderness or anything so I’m sure I’m out.
