My ovulation day is predicted the 14th, but not sign of EWCM just yet so may be a few days later.

Anyone want some company this cycle?

I caved and tested this morning because I had really uncomfortable cramps last night and woke up in the middle of the night again which is usually a sure fire sign AF is in full flow but there was no blood or cramps this morning.

I got this instead...

I'm actually in shock!

Congratulations, and a very happy and healthy 9 months to you.

Did the cramps feel like pms cramps? im cycle day 28 today and feels tender/crampy from under the boobs down to belly button maybe trapped gas or something, but under the belly button it feels like im being streched apart side ways. I'm holding out testing till AF is late

overthinkersanonnymus · 28/02/2024 09:56

@Cremant31 i’m not late yet, I have only had one period since my miscarriage so not quite sure when I’m due. & I’m the same, I saw a slight line yesterday (but it’s probably just my eyes) and got excited thinking if I take another one today it’ll be darker, but nope, took one this morning and it’s a BFN. It’s such an awful feeling isn’t it? How long are your usual cycles? xx

I feel like I can see a faint line on here xx

Thank you @Westy22 @Emilyx00 @overthinkersanonnymus @Anonxo

Yes my cramps felt exactly like period cramps, to the point where I was arguing with my husband that I KNEW I wasn't pregnant because I know what my body feels like when it's coming on. I do think a lot of the cramping is due to wind/constipation but some of it felt remarkably like a period.

Will keep everything crossed it's a sticky one! Going to do keep testing for progression and do a digital tomorrow because I FaceTimed my husband to show him on his way to work (I tested after he'd gone as I wanted to have a BFN for confirmation my period was on its way), and he said 'hmm maybe we should do a proper test tomorrow' so he's obviously not got used to practising his line eyes 😂

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 13:21

@piechipsgravy its definitely a positive!!! He’s probably in shock. X

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 13:22

@Jellybelly888 i did too, then i took another test this morning and BFN. ☹️ just taken another one and I’m sure I can see a faint faint line!

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 13:22

I’m not sure if I have line eyes, can I post a few pics and you girls can have a look to see if you can see it too?

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 13:28

Post it @Emilyx00 I've analysed lots of tests the last 9 months 🙈

I'm getting the cramps you describe too @piechipsgravy can't decide if it's gas or things settling, or a mix of both lol xx

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 13:38

Okay here goes:

Photo one: the top test is yesterday , the bottom is around 12/1 today. Had a negative this morning too.

Photo two: edited version of photo one.

Photo three: I had to open it as the camera kept getting the reflection of the cover. This is a different test and I thought I could see a slight shadow on this one too.

Photo four: edited version of photo three.

When I edit them, I definitely think I can see something but not sure if they are evaps in real life and I’m scared to be let down☹️

I’m 9DPO by the way. X

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 13:57

I defo think there's a faint line on all of them, surely cant all be evaps. are they early detection? X @Emilyx00 maybe it's still early for you and it needs another day or so to become clearer? X

piechipsgravy · 28/02/2024 14:05

@Emilyx00 I can see something in the first photo! 9DPO is super early so definitely retest- maybe wait 48 hours if you can cope with that?

piechipsgravy · 28/02/2024 14:06

@overthinkersanonnymus sorry I forgot to say- my first test this month, think I'm 14DPO.

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 14:27

@piechipsgravy / @Westy22 im so impatient. I promised myself I wouldn’t test until march and here I am, squinting, editing, holding tests up in different lights. Thanks for having a look for me. Hopefully I’ll be joining you both soon. How are you guys getting on?x

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 15:31

We've all been there trust me @Emilyx00 it's the worst wait ❤️ 🤞 hopefully you get some more clarity soon. X

I'm okay, I'm freaking myself out with everything little cramp I have, I told myself not to test today as it wasn't doing me any good monitoring the progression and as I'm going the toilet at night my fmu doesn't look strong anymore.... I'm actually getting better lines in the evening 🙈 so the test obsession doesn't go away 🙈

Emilyx00 · 28/02/2024 15:36

Aww! Yeah with my previous pregnancies, the lines were always better in the late afternoon/evening!!

Littleladybugs · 28/02/2024 15:44

Onto cycle 29 for me 😞 this just feels like ttc my first (took 5.5 years) my second took 15 months and seemed really quick despite that actually being longer than average. Have made appts so we can get some help with things as it’s not going to happen otherwise

YorkshirePeridot · 28/02/2024 20:05

@piechipsgravy congratulations!!

@Emilyx00 I see something on one of the tests in pic 1, and both in pic 2. Got my fingers crossed for you 🤞

BussiBop23 · 29/02/2024 09:55

I'm out - BFN this morning and AF due tomorrow. That's 12 cycles of nothing for us, so I'm going to call the GP and book an appointment. I hate that I need to face the fact that there may be a problem!

Congrats to all the positives! It's been great having people to talk to this cycle - thanks everyone!

UnicornPrincessSarah · 29/02/2024 13:09

I am out now AF come this month this is now my second month my body has played horrible tricks on me, my fingers are crossed that cycle number 3 will be our one, my fertile dates for March are 8th to 14th March

overthinkersanonnymus · 29/02/2024 17:51

I'm out. 13dpo and bfn.

Who's going to be joining for next cycle?
