Today's test. Still don't know whether it's too light if a line to believe it. Think I'm supposed to be 10dpo at the moment but not 100% on that .

@mixedcouple yeh that's exactly how mine feels too

There's a slightly clearer pic of the line. Would you believe this test if it was yours ?

Skyla01 · 10/09/2023 16:37

@Tartanhaggis I had the exact same with my first few tests- a line but a faint one. I wasn't entirely happy until I got a stronger red line. However I do think that yours is positive! Might need another 48hr to get stronger though.

Twinkles18 · 10/09/2023 16:46

@Tartanhaggis congratulations!! This is what mine were like too..still quite faint although I did a pregnancy test on the clearblue monitor this morning and it came up “pregnant” so I’m delighted seeing it in actual writing haha. Ordered 2 clearblue digitalis to do one later in the week and possibly the week after to ensure there’s progression 🥰
congratulations again, hope it’s a healthy and happy 9 months xx

Tartanhaggis · 10/09/2023 16:55

Thankyou @Twinkles18 and same to you and thanks @Skyla01

I think main issue is I don't really feel different . I won't believe it until I see the words either. I keep picking today's one up thinking iv just imagined it. Will need to move on to a frer now. Iv had so many faint lines on my journey that I know I shouldn't of even tested till later but too impatient 🙄lol

ReginaPhalange12 · 10/09/2023 18:11

Congratulations @Tartanhaggis it looks like a positive to me too 😃

MrsHousePlant · 10/09/2023 18:20

Congratulations @Tartanhaggis! This seems to be a lucky thread with lots of BFPs! 💕

Meggan123 · 10/09/2023 19:04

Hi ladies,

Can I join? Finally got my BFP after 14 months of TTC (had a chemical 8 months ago) Was starting to go though some investigations and was due a HSG this week which I am delighted to now cancel. I really was starting to lose hope and feel really sad.

super anxious but praying this is our time. 🤞🙏❤️

@Tartanhaggis I felt the same- why did I test a bit early?! I've stopped testing now. Just over 5 weeks but no symptoms yet really so don't feel pregnant at all. Quite a strange feeling.

@MrsHousePlant my thoughts too- this seems to be quite a lucky thread!

Oh I didn't realise you'd had a bfp aswell congrats xx it's good to know you don't feel any different either. I'd rather feel queasy every so often or something so I know for sure lol.

Backache is the only thing I can report and I feel warm but only warm in the face area not body. I know I sound like a weirdo 🤣. I still think my tests are wrong but IL try grab a decent one tomorrow and see 🤞. Thanks for the congrats to the others who posted 🥰.

Good luck everyone hopefully this is your month ♥️

Tartanhaggis · 10/09/2023 20:25

Well backache and on off dull pains and the odd sharp seldom pain in period pain type area . Usually I only get backache a few days before I'm due AF but this time iv had it since 3dpo and it's not went away. Sorry I keep sending two messages I keep forgetting to add bits. I'm conscious of filling up the thread 😬.

@Skyla sorry for personal question but did you get increased cm early on (10dpo ISH) I don't have that either 😳

Skyla01 · 10/09/2023 20:31

@Tartanhaggis not noticed much cm at all. Last time I was pregnant I got symptoms pretty soon after my bfp, however, that time I didn't test until I was 5 days late so would have been almost another week further on than I am now. Guess we should just enjoy feeling well while we can.

Yeh iv got kids already too and I remember feeling quite crappy really quickly . I felt dizzy alot , and couldn't go into any shops because for some reason as soon as I did I felt faint lol. Yes you're right should just enjoy feeling ok lol. Will post another update once iv taken a frer or digital

MixedCouple · 10/09/2023 20:41

@Tartanhaggis OMG congrats. That is not hard too spot it all. Exciting!!!!! So clear. Happy n Healthy 9 months

MixedCouple · 10/09/2023 20:47

@Meggan123 aww congrats. Happy n healthy 9 months. I hope u have a smooth pregnancy.

Stardust89 · 10/09/2023 22:05

Hey, hope it's OK to join in.

I think I got a very very faint positive on a clear blue 6day early test this morning, AF is due Tuesday/Thursday.

Hoping it's a positive and not a evap line 🙏

This would be baby #2 for me.

Hope everyone's ok and sending positive vibes for BFPs

Stardust89 · 10/09/2023 22:24

I'm also getting small stabby pains/ cramps in the left side, and an achy back.

No sore boobs, apart from where my LG has bitten one nipple whilst feeding time sleep 😬

I have also had waves of nausea, but I keep wondering if I'm imagining it, as I hated morning sickness last time.

I'm also sure my CM increased around this time when I conceived, it was sticky today but not any noticeable amount.

Congratulations to those with BFP!

My image didn't attach on my last message, here's my faint line that I'm not sure is true or not

Hi All

Hope you don’t mind me joining in.
I’m 33 & TTC for #1. Iv been on the implant for years & had this removed 21/08.

I had what I believe was AF 14/08-18-08 so if correct, AF is due again tomorrow.

Had some strange feelings so took a test today, a BFN so presume this is a sign of AF appearing! Any tips greatly appreciated .

Hiya. I would suggest first 6 months relax and just try and have regular intercourse, especially around fertile week and just after.
If bothing after 6 months you may find it helpful too start OPKs ovulation tracking with also using BBT. Some women find it stressful so don't want the hassle. If might not be needes if you and your partner DTD every 2/3days you should be covered. Those couples who dont have regular intercourse they may want to use OPKs and BBT

MixedCouple · 11/09/2023 04:25

@Tartanhaggis awww dear don't worry just relax - stress is no good.
Yes I had no change in CM before BFP at 12DPO it only changed around 7/8weeks and it was the same as post ovulation sticky globby booger like more of it and that was me my entire pregnancy. Sometimes a bit creamy.

@Stardust89 I can see a line as soon as I scrolled. Mine was so faint I thought it was in my head. But this is an obvious one. If you can wait 2 days it.shoule be darker. Congrats!!!!

Kate543 · 11/09/2023 07:13

Wow congrats on all those bfp guys! Hope you don’t mind me joining I’ve just started Ttc baby number 2 after an incredibly tough time conceiving baby number 1! This is cycle 1 so trying to feel relaxed however I forgot how rubbish the tww is 😆

Stardust89 · 11/09/2023 07:25

Morning, I have 0 chill so tried the second test in the clear blue 6day early pack this morning. The line is definitely darker. But as I know people say blue can be evap I'm not really believing it.

With FRER being out of stock anyone know of pink dye ones that I could pop to a shop to get?

I'm either 1 day pre period or 3 days.

TTC Sept 2023
Kate543 · 11/09/2023 07:29

I would say that’s a positive lovely! How exciting xx

MrsHousePlant · 11/09/2023 07:32

Noticed some spotting this morning so I think that’s AF on the way for me tomorrow and me out. I’ll be in the October thread in a week or so!

Good luck everyone else getting your BFPs 💕

Rebeccaemily93 · 11/09/2023 08:47

I’m due on my period tomorrow, I did early clearblue tests over the weekend and got these - are they evap lines or positives? I’ve read everything and my brain is now fried! Please help 🤣🤣
