Who's with me in this boat?

@HolyMoly24 Thankyou 🩷🩷🩷

What days did you DTD this month? X x x

@HolyMoly24 2 evap lines one after another are really not that common, so there might be something there x x. Crossing my fingers for you. The HCG levels need a bit of time to rise so that the line gets darker. Hopefully tomorrow morning you will be able to see it better.

@tryingforbaba I also tested at 5 DPO, 7 DPO, 10 DPO. I found it was very hard for me mentally to see that BFN, because let's face it, it's very early for a pregnancy to show up on a test this early. We need to be kinder to ourselves.

One trick I learned around this forum is not keeping pregnancy tests in the house, because the temptation is too big.

I still have one left but I do not plan to use it until my AF is officially late. Hopefully i can stop myself😂.

HolyMoly24 · 12/01/2024 16:45

@tryingforbaba I've attached a pic of the days we dtd. I had EWCM on these days too apart from the day of ovulation.

@TTC345678 just trying not to get my hopes up too much but I really do think it's the start of a bfp. Praying that tomorrow or definitely by Sunday I see darker lines. We keep you all updated though either way

HolyMoly24 · 12/01/2024 16:46

For some reason I can't post the pic.

But basically day of ovulation, the day before and also on the 4th day prior to ovulation.

tryingforbaba · 12/01/2024 21:54

I'm having a symptom which I recognise from my last pregnancy .... don't judge me 😬

Feeling overwhelmingly irritated and turned off by my husband.

Disclaimer: he's doing nothing differently, it's ALL me. I usually find him funny, sexy and I just love him.

But I'm getting that skin - crawling feeling which I'm projecting on to him. The only other time I've had this experience is in my first pregnancy....

Anyone else???

@tryingforbaba interesting!! Hopefully it's a sign, how many dpo are you now?

I did another FRER first thing this morning and not sure what to think, there's a faint line again but no darker than yesterday and I'm 11dpo now. It's soo faint but my partner can see it so I'm not just making it up lol. Not sure if I can be tentatively excited, I guess just test again tomorrow 😬

2WW.... anyone else??
TTC345678 · 13/01/2024 08:51

@HolyMoly24 omg!! Fingers crossed for you!!!

@tryingforbaba That sounds promising indeed. Xx

I took another test today, 11 DPO, BFN. I really think I'm out this month. I have no symptoms at all, and I feel like something would have shown up by now. I'm done testing, I'll just wait for AF

Leaht23 · 13/01/2024 09:06

Hi, this is my first post on mumsnet! This is my first month tracking ovulation and actually TTC properly. I got a solid smiley on the clearblue ovulation tests on the 4th, so guessing I ovulated around then or the 5th, which makes me 8/9 dpo. Tested this morning with a frer and easy at home and both BFN’s :( I know it’s still early though, so I will keep testing as the days go on (and keep busy so I don’t go insane!) Sending baby dust to you all!

TTC345678 · 13/01/2024 09:14

@Leaht23 Welcome! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! It would be nice to see a positive here soon.xx

HolyMoly24 · 13/01/2024 10:17

@TTC345678

Don't give up hope yet, I had zero symptoms with my first until I was out of the first trimester! I can understand if you don't want to keep testing though, it's tough on the emotions. Wishing you so much luck still ❤️

@Leaht23. Welcome! Let us know how your tests over the next few days go. Fingers crossed for you!

Limmers14 · 13/01/2024 10:55

Good luck @Leaht23! it was my first month using clear blue. I’ve been using the easy at home tests since summer 2023 and found the clear blue much easier to use. They also gave me an earlier ovulation date

Teela86 · 13/01/2024 14:20

My temp dropped quite a bit after shooting up yesterday, think the witch is on her way to me! Oh well, roll on next cycle!

siobhanmt247 · 13/01/2024 14:25

@Teela86 i had a temp drop too. Don't panic

2WW.... anyone else??
HolyMoly24 · 14/01/2024 08:17

Some slow progress is being made on my vvfl.

I think this might actually be real 🥹

Really want to see a nice string line to feel 100% confident. Might do a digital tomorrow, there's something about seeing the words that help make it feel more real.

2WW.... anyone else??
siobhanmt247 · 14/01/2024 08:28

@HolyMoly24 congrats. I think you'll get a positive digital

HolyMoly24 · 14/01/2024 08:49

@siobhanmt247 thank you! I hope so.

What's mad is I went back and looked at the test I took when I was pregnant with my daughter 5 years ago and it's barely even visible but I just accepted it as positive at the time and never tested again. I was blissfully unaware of chemical pregnancies etc then.

siobhanmt247 · 14/01/2024 09:10

Yeah I think we learn a little too much from these forums sometimes. I was I was back in the day when you couldn't find out until 10 weeks. @HolyMoly24 try to stay positive

TTC345678 · 14/01/2024 11:37

@HolyMoly24 omgg, congrats!!❤️

That is definetly a BFP!

@TTC345678 @tryingforbaba

Thank you so much!! Still doesn't feel real, just praying it's a sticky little baby.

How are you both feeling?

TTC345678 · 14/01/2024 13:03

@HolyMoly24 I don't have symptoms whatsoever, not evem sore breasts, my AF is due in about 2 days. I haven't tested since the BFN yesterday, and I'm not going to, as I've convinced myself I'm out for this month and I cannot look at a BFN again

Leaht23 · 14/01/2024 14:50

This is my test from this morning with FMU. We think we see a verrry faint shadow but I’m not sure. I’m 9dpo. I did a test around lunchtime and it was a BFN. I’m going to use a FRER tomorrow!

2WW.... anyone else??
Leaht23 · 14/01/2024 14:52

Congratulations @HolyMoly24 !! Xx
