8DPO - anyone else?

Hi everyone. TTC no2, first month trying. I’m currently 8DPO and wondered if anyone else is in the same boat. Finding the TWW is dragging! Have done a test this morning which was negative but know it’s still early. Have had some symptoms, light spotting, cramping, headaches and back ache. Looking for anyone to join me and wait for a BFP!

Yep! TTC no2, and this is our first cycle of trying after a MC in March this year. I am on 10dpo today! I think my breasts are tender (but only when i press them haha), been having vivid dreams and I seem more fatigued. However...this could all be in my head 😂Had BFN yesterday, but being the POAS addict that I am, I will absolutely test again later today haha! Also, to note, we only dtd once, about 4 days before OV so the chances are prettttty slim!!

Babydreamer123 · 29/10/2024 09:45

I am a total POAS addict too! With DD I got a vvvfl at 9dpo so I’d expect to see something around 10dpo but everyone / every pregnancy is different! Sperm can survive for 5 days so you never know! We DTD on day I got my peak clear blue test and two days before also so there’s a chance although I didn’t have much EWCM until around 4dpo which has thrown me! As an impatient person I really struggle with this phase!

I'm 8-9dpo (I'm usually consistently day 14 but this month got a solid smiley on day 12 so maybe earlier this month) and got a negative test this morning too but as you say.. still early days! My cycles are pretty short so AF is due Friday and I've had zero symptoms. TTC number 2 been trying since beginning of the year and one MC in June

Ruixue358 · 29/10/2024 09:58

I had my first faint line with DS at 10dpo, so if it follows my last pregnancy i should get something today! But like you said, every pregnancy is different! Will absolutely test this afternoon though and let you know. I hope we got a lucky shot, but equally if I am not, i wont be doo upset as i know we didnt make a proper effort 🙂when will you do your first test @Babydreamer123 ? i am also VERY impatient LOL, the TWW is the worst!

@Harriet1989 sorry to hear about your MC, theyre so awful. Keeping everything crossed! you also may not get any symptoms! i had none when i was pregnant with DS and it really threw me. I only started to feel sick around 8/9 weeks into the pregnancy x

Babydreamer123 · 29/10/2024 10:12

@Ruixue358 I’ve already tested this morning at 8dpo! It was negative. I will test every morning most likely until period arrives. Will you test today?? Fingers crossed for you!

@Harriet1989 sorry about your MC :( wishing you luck this cycle x

Hi fellow TTC community.. I was wondering can anyone give me any info on the pic below. It was read at the correct time so I’m a bit confused. Backstory I’m taking Gonasi (HCG) post peak so its prob only hormones if it is a BFP

I can't see a second line I'm afraid but it also looks a bit flooded? Did you use it as a dip just for a few seconds?

Wishfulmama · 29/10/2024 10:27

I dipped it for about ten seconds

Happibara · 29/10/2024 10:30

Hello, I'll join 😄

9DPO today, TTC #2. We've been at it for a while, this is cycle 9 I think.

Tested this morning but got a BFN, trying not to feel too discouraged by it. I was actually really hopeful for this cycle, it seemed we've done everything right. However, I'm 40, so I do realise it may just be very difficult. Regardless, hope we'll see a lot of BFPs here!

I'm booked for a private ovarian scan and blood tests in early November, I think if AF arrives I'll try to just be optimistic for that instead.

I can see a line but it looks white not pink? So I'm not sure. I'm using the wondfo tests from Amazon has anyone had good experience with these? Never sure which brand is best

Wishfulmama · 29/10/2024 11:14

The line is white and appeared pretty much straight away… they are only cheap tests from Shein so I’m not expecting much from them. I haven’t used wondfo tests but I hope they bring you your BFP

yellowlemontree · 29/10/2024 13:37

Joining! 8dpo today and have just ordered pink dye tests from Amazon after a suspicious looking clearblue. Good luck everyone x

Ruixue358 · 29/10/2024 13:37

Are my eyes deceiving me? 🥹 i can see a vvv faint line, came up within the 3min window!

Wishfulmama · 29/10/2024 13:39

I can see the faint line sending baby dust your way

yellowlemontree · 29/10/2024 13:46

@Ruixue358 I see it! 🤞🏼🙏

Ruixue358 · 29/10/2024 13:49

it looks a lot stronger in person, think mumsnet messes up the picture quality. And its pink. Def going to retest tomorrow and do an early digital one, but i really hope this will be our rainbowbaby!

Congrats! How many dpo are you?

OP posts:
Wishfulmama · 31/10/2024 12:56

10 dpo but it’s a medicated cycle so it could be a false positive going to wait it out to see if AF arrives
