Hey ladies sorry to jump on your post! I’m 1 day late for AF and I think 15dpo tests been bfn! What are the chances of actually being pregnant? I’m driving myself crazy!

Emiily887 · 22/10/2024 19:56

I think my lines must have been indents, can sort of still see something but I feel like there’s no colour and barely there now after a 4 hours hold and no drinks 🫠

I am hoping October might be my lucky month... I'm just turned 41 who suffered secondary infertility for 7 years. This is my 3rd pregnancy in the past year. Before that I had a number of miscarriages as well. I don't feel any excitement as painfuly aware it could all be over soon. But here we are yet again, 11 dpo and positive. It's Boots early detection, done tonight.

Ahhh @Emiily887 it’s so frustrating isn’t it, the are they aren’t they lines! Do we know if some women don’t know they are pregnant and maybe still miss their AF without getting clear lines? I know it’s clutching at straws here.
Hey @Elisabethjade it’s tough to say isn’t it, it’s looking good if AF is a day late! Confusing about the blank tests, I’ve had the same this cycle and vvv annoying faint lines. AF is due tomorrow or Thurs so we shall see. I know how you feel if only we could just know!

Emiily887 · 22/10/2024 21:32

@LuxyLocket they're a nightmare! Yes definitely, a woman with a base HCG of 2, if they implant even at 8dpo it wouldn’t hit a HCG level of 10 until 13dpo minimum, so if you implanted later than that with a low base HCG level it could be 16/17dpo by the time a positive shows if that makes sense? Xx

@Emiily887 That does makes sense! And it’s very interesting I didn’t know that about the different base hcg levels until you mentioned that on the last thread so thank you for that! It does give a slight hope for us that still having had a clear line but the v faint ones! 💕🤞

MrsS11 · 22/10/2024 22:48

@fedup2010 congratulations, I hope you can enjoy being pregnant today 😊 sorry I'm checking out for a bit ladies, AF arrived a few days ago and hit hard. I've ordered some CB opks as the easy@home ones only give me a very short peak so I'm hopeful that might help but I probably also need to take a step back for a wee bit. Good luck to everyone, see you in the next tww if this isn't your month!

Justbloodylovecrisps · 23/10/2024 00:10

@Emiily887 & @LuxyLocket sounds like you're both well within a chance this month. Keeping everything crossed for you both!! ❤️❤️ please keep us updated!

I'm 3 days late for my AF now and this never ever happens, I am clockwork 28 days. Had some spotting but it's gone now? I have had a cold so maybe that's delayed it as I did a test and it's a BFN! I'm 16dpo so defo out, just want AF to arrive arghh xx

JoMummyJessica · 23/10/2024 07:00

11 dpo today and BFN, had shadows on other test leading me to believe it may be our month! Deflated isn't the word but af due Sunday and I feel her coming in hard this month!
We go again for November rainbow baby x

LuxyLocket · 23/10/2024 11:41

Feeling the tell tale cramps so I reckon AF is coming later today. Nothing picked up/increased on easy@home this morning either. Really crampy. Into November for hopefully our rainbow baby as well @JoMummyJessica 💜🩷
hows everyone else doing? I’m feeling fed up at work and just want AF to come now. Going to be kind to myself tonight and have a chill evening

Emiily887 · 23/10/2024 12:03

Hi ladies. 11dpo today, still got tingly boobs and still have a shadow but absolutely no progression at all, I think this months batch of easy @ home may be dodgy as they all have a shadow on. Really got my hopes up after last months chemical😭
Why is ttc such a rollercoaster?!

Mine looked exactly like this today at 10DPO!!! How many days are you?

I’m only 8dpo, I’m scared. Maybe I implanted early, but the only reason I tested is because today I was so tired and literally napped all day, then woke up nauseous. Aside from that today I’ve had no symptoms so thought it was weird.

I’m gonna test again in morning in case it was an indent but glad I’m not the only one who sees it. Would be an absolute horrible indent 😭

Plumchumm · 23/10/2024 21:10

Maybe I ovulated earlier than I thought and could be 9dpo, not sure x

Me too…I think we’ve used the same test as well. Will let you know how I get on! Maybe you did ovulate earlier Xx

macki · 23/10/2024 21:37

We were trying for 2 years. I would read TTC forums for hours, day and night, trying to work out what was wrong with me. I convinced myself my body was broken and that my mad partying twenties had rendered me infertile until one day I tested on 10 DPO and saw that second line. The moment wasn’t what I imagined; I thought it would be sudden excitement and joy but actually it was disbelief followed by 12 weeks of anxiety and 6 months of nausea.

I now have a beautiful 6 month old. I wish I could pass on all the knowledge I learned to anyone who wants to hear it. I desperately wanted someone to talk to in that lonely time. Don’t beat yourself up. Deep breaths, self care and relax, you got this!

Yeah I used clear and simple ultra early. It’s a 10miu one. Is that the one you used? Can I see yours? Hoping and praying it’s not an indent. Good luck xx

Plumchumm · 23/10/2024 21:48

@macki that’s really encouraging thank you for sharing that
