4dpo any one? Tww

[Dan521]

Any one want to share the tww?

8/9 dpo today and bfn of easy at home. Had quite a bit of af type cramping last night with lower backache ended up stretching out on the couch to relieve it while watching tv and fell asleep at 9:30pm. I’m usually a night owl, especially on a Friday night. Still feel a bit crampy this morning. Still very wet cm. Hoping this is all a good sign. The wait kills me 😑

Just chiming in about day 21 progesterone tests, I did one (not via doctors, I bought from Superdrug as I was suspicious about low BBT) and it came back as 28.5 but no info about what it meant! I am certain I am ovulating but I think it does mean my progesterone is a bit low.. I’ve been taking b6 to see if it helps.

I’m on 5dpo today and seem to have more lotiony/snotty CM and had some ovary twinges the last couple of days but not sure if it means anything!

I didn’t know super drug done those tests I’ve just looked it up. I am no expert and never had one done but I think they’re supposed to be done mid luteal phase based on a textbook 28 day cycle with ovulation usually cd14, which means cd21 would be 7dpo.

I’ve never really looked into it but I’m sure I’ve seen a few posts that have mentioned around 30 is a good level. If my calculations and theory are correct here, you may have taken the test slightly early which means 28.5 is a good number! I just seen on Superdrug they have drs who can talk you through results? Maybe try arranging that to explain further?

I could be completely wrong here though 🙈

@Dan521 thats a good shout re talking to the Superdrug doctor! I did it a couple of cycles ago, so not sure if that’s meaningless if it jumps up and down a lot? Or whether it stays fairly steady each cycle so is a general indication. Yeah that’s what I’d gathered too online, 30 and above is good, and under 30 suggesting no ovulation (although am sure I did ovulate the month I did the test!).

I read a post about someone getting a level of 15 but because they’d ovulated later than cd14 the dr said it was a good number. I read all this from looking into clomid, people on clomid are monitored and have 21 day bloods and there’s a fair bit of discussion about results. May be worth having a read through those threads.

That’s good to know, I already take b vitamins but the only difference I did when I got a 70+ was me taking apple cider vinegar supplements. Mainly to help with the weight gain from coming off bc but I read it can increase progesterone. Stopped taking it to see what my body was doing without it

9/10 dpo today.. felt nauseas all morning. Feel so hormonal and agitated basically feel emotionally unstable today 🙈 I’ve snapped at my OH and ended up crying for nothing, it usually takes a lot to make me cry. kind of felt like I just needed a release. I’ve had strange boob pain this morning, it was a burning sensation from my cleverage radiating outwards and was worse when I leant forward. Done an easy@home test with FMU was bfn but I feel like I can see a shadow, although my eyesight isn’t great and my brain likes to play tricks on me and give me line eyes.

My progresterone is low, looks like I probably didn't even ovulate again 😔 just fighting a constantly losing battle and it's exhausting.

Oh no @moosey89 sorry to hear that 😞 I’ve never had my progesterone tested I’ve just been using opks.

@Dan521 I always get peaks on the clearblue opks but yeah looks like I might not actually ovulate. Really sucks. I've decided to bite the bullet and get a private consultation as I don't know how long the wait is for fertility clinic (had a referral done but have my scan and other Half's semen analysis to go, and I reckon it'll be months after that before we get an appointment!).

@moosey89 hopefully when you get your appointment they can get to the bottom of it 😞

10/11 dpo for me today and another bfn. I feel more pregnant this month than any other, feel like I’ve got every symptom but at this point I’m losing hope that this will be our month. I think our next step is going to be a sperm analysis.

is any one else currently testing?

I’ve done another test (boots 6 days early) and there’s a definite second line. Now trying to decide if it is an evap or the start of a bfp 😭. I’ve took it out the case to try and get a better picture.

I’ve just gone a rummaged this mornings test out the bin for comparison 🙈

Oooo @Dan521 I definitely see a line!!! Got everything crossed for you 🤞🤞

@Dan521 I see a line🤞🤞🤞

This is how it dried…

I’ve done another since though and it was bfn so not holding much hope.

I can definitely see something. I have all my fingers crossed for you. Have you got a test to take first thing tomorrow?

@Roses5678 I only have IC left. I don’t think they’re as sensitive and been bfn so far but I’ll give one a go tomorrow.

I hope you get the result you want but don't be disheartened if tomorrow's one is a negative. Your not out till af arrives.

Thanks @Roses5678 im not getting my hopes up unless I see a solid line or a bfp on a digital. I do have a cb early digital but don’t want to waste it. I might go and get more of the same tests in the morning and see if it happens again any darker. I’m tempted to even go tonight before it shuts at 8pm 🙈

I haven’t mentioned anything to OH, don’t want to get his hopes up if it’s nothing.

I'd be the same, I avoid digitals I just can't handle the brutality of seeing "not pregnant" I'd rather just be in denial 🤣.

I'm 8dpo, have no tests and promised myself I won't buy any.

My period arrived on cd28 last time, despite estimating I ovulated on cd18.
I'm cd27 ATM so be interesting if period arrives tomorrow or following day. If it does it gives me more reason to suggest I haven't ovulated

@roses I don’t know how you’ve had the will power. I told myself an hour ago that I’m definitely not buying any more and I’ll see what the ICs until af arrives. I rapidly changed my mind while I was writing that last response and raced to boots before it shut 🙈

i took a pic of the two together earlier thinking one was a complete bfn but looking back at the pic I feel like I can see a line on both of them. Just not sure if they’re evaps. The one I done with FMU is definitely a bfn. These two are from later in the day.

@Dan521 I definitely see something on both, they are very faint, fingers crossed.
However as they are outside the 10 min window I would definitely be cautious and try not to get your hopes up, just incase.
It's so hard though isn't it. I'm guilty of going into the bin how's later to check 😂

Hey ladies! Hope everyone is well 😊
I'm 10dpo today and have quite strong period type cramps - literally feel the same as if AF is going to make an appearance albeit 4/5 days early. I did a IC after saying I wasn't going to test 🤣 & got a BFN which wasn't surprising - just going to actually stop testing & wait for AF to arrive now 😪 good luck ladies 🤞 xx

@MissSB18 i think the best thing to do if you have the will power is to wait until af. I tell myself every month I’m going to wait and end up caving dead early 😭.

my test this morning was a bfn, yesterday must have been an evap, it would have been darker by now if it was a bfp. I feel like there just isn’t any reliable early tests out there. I am about 11/12 dpo today. 12 if I go by Premom and my peak but I had ovulation pain and EWCM 11 days ago. I am most likely out this month.
