Hi everyone.

I am 6dpo and feel like I am waiting weeks now to do a test. I am cramping since ovulation. Been using OPK’s so fairly certain by a day/two when I ovulated.

TTC #3. ( been pregnant 5 times).

anyone else on the +-same time and need support?

@AnnieStar12 now I am going to take it as a negative cause the pamflet said do not read after 10minutes and it came up visible for a photo around 8 minutes. IT is very thin I cause so I will wait for my pink dye test and step away from CB cause this stress is just unnecessary

Todays test being 5 days late I was thinking it should still be getting darker :( I'm worried so much abo it a chemical. I got in contact with the doctors and their response was 'the line doesn't determine the health of the pregnancy' and just passed me the midwifery number, I'm so worried

@Anon243 this is the second day you’re getting faint positives, right? I think that’s a good sign as unlikely they’re all wrong or evaps!

@elle123355 sorry that sounds stressful, doesn’t sound like you got much help from your doctor. Will you call the midwife? Maybe they’ll give you a blood test. At this stage it’s hard for anyone to know as you wouldn’t even see anything on a scan so it’s just a matter of keeping testing every 48 hours. It’s good sign you’re still getting positives sending you best wishes, keep us posted x

Anon243 · 25/01/2024 13:59

@elle123355 is looks darker or more clearer. I dont know if its because of the quality in photo? Can you perhaps put them all next to each other and share a photo? I would think that by taking your bloods every second day would probably be the best to see of its progressing? It really do looks positive.

@elle123355 it really looks like there is progression in the photos. I would say if it stays like this for another week I would be worried. Good luck! I know how stressful things like this can be.

AnnieStar12 · 25/01/2024 14:51

Agree, looks like some progression there - fingers crossed

Congrats @Anon243 and @elle123355 🙌🙌🙌

Amazing news and yes even though it feels scary definitely appreciate the little moments of hope. Let hope preside over fear whilst remaining cautious!!

BFN from me and pretty sure AF is on her way.. still holding onto a slither of hope though.. why not!!

Anon243 · 25/01/2024 20:04

Thanks so much @rosebudbloom ❤️❤️

sorry to hear about your BFN. As long as Ffff AF is not here then we all have hope!! That is what keeps us going every month to try and try again. Hope can be cruel but it is all we have! Fingers crossed for you✨

Oh my! Congratulations. You were so right with your intuition. It’s like you knew already ❤️ sending lots of love & luck. xx

Hoping1775 · 26/01/2024 07:00

BFN this morning…although I was expecting it as I’m only 8DPO and I’ve only ever got faint positives from 10DPO so I’m not completely ruling myself out.

its me & my husbands anniversary today and we’re going out for a celebratory dinner. Seems as I’ve seen a BFN, having a few glasses of wine with dinner & dancing should be fine right ? x

Itsrainingfrogs · 26/01/2024 08:16

@Anon243 congratulations! Wishing you all the best for this pregnancy and thank you for sharing your symptoms (as a serial symptom spotter I love to hear of other peoples experiences 😅) Wishing you so much luck ✨

I would say a few wines would be ok. Its a special occasion, and you can't put your life on hold. And if implantation hasn't occurred yet, there's likely to be no impact. My last pregnancy I had 2 very heavy nights out when I was pregnant but didn't know. And I'd take the bfn as your go ahead.

hermionelodge · 26/01/2024 08:33

Morning all

So my new symptoms to drive me crazy, I was gagging when brushing my teeth last night and this morning- that happened in my last pregnancy like the whole way through. And this morning my gums were bleeding too! I'm really trying not to get my hopes up but I am starting to feel a bit excited now. Although I've not had implantation bleeding and I did last time. I know that's not a guaranteed thing though

How is everyone else doing?

Hoping1775 · 26/01/2024 09:54

Ooo sounds promising! How many dpo are you? When will you start testing?

I only had implantation bleeding with one of my 3 children. So deffs could still be it 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 xx

hermionelodge · 26/01/2024 10:50

I think I'm 11 dpo going by app. I did take a test yesterday morning but was just a very cheap basic one, not even a frer type so it was stark white. AF is due weds so I think I'm going to try hold off testing until weds or Thursday!

Ah ok that's good to know! Hopefully this is it! Hoping for BFPs for us all! Xx
