@KT199 I will do! Yes I felt way more crazed right after ovulation but I do feel a lot more relaxed now. At least if AF turns up it's one step closer to a BFP, I'm not good with the limbo. Here's a pic of the test I did... I will probably test tomorrow morning with FMU (11dpo)

Still BFN
These are the cheepy Tesco ones, 2 for £2.50 and there's are lots of excess dye, has anyone got a test they prefer/get clear results in the past?

11DPO - negative for me! Looks like I’m out, AF due Sunday so done testing now. I normally start spotting the day before. Onto the next cycle ✨

Good luck to the rest of you ladies still testing. Hope there’s some BFP’s on this thread.

Harriet1989 · 01/11/2024 11:08

I'm the same as you @KT199 and @vlove1234 BFN this morning so also assuming I'm out. AF due either today or tomorrow. Have you both got something nice planned for the weekend? Hope you're doing okay

I’ve got a quiet weekend planned tbh. Will probably go to gym, maybe play squash. Visit some family and relax. I feel pretty exhausted after a busy week at work and the mental challenge of the TWW, so it will be nice to rest and unplug and not have my mind constantly all over and over analysing. How about you?

SarahFlower · 01/11/2024 14:01

BFN here today too ☹️ 11dpo so assuming I am now out ... onwards and upwards to cycle number 4 🤞🏼

SarahFlower · 01/11/2024 14:02

On another note does anyone find that when you get AF it's almost a sigh of relief. Look forward to the next month of trying, ovulation week is exciting but the anxiety hits at 1dpo?

Yess, 100%. I actually feel relieved already tbh as I truly believe I am out and AF is on her way. And it’s refreshing to be able to tune out of over thinking in the TWW and finally have a lovely relaxing weekend where I can just rest and not be in my own head!

Going into cycle 4 with you!! ☺️

Babydreamer123 · 01/11/2024 16:16

Also bfn for me today so also out! Bring on next month. As you've said, I feel calmer now the tww is over

WishingForTheImpossible · 01/11/2024 17:07

My AF was due yesterday, no sign today and still getting BFN
I guess I kinda do want AF now so I can sob into a rather large glass of wine, yet despite all the negatives I can't bring myself to have a drink 'just incase' so I can certainly see why you get a relieved feeling @KT199 and @SarahFlower
Going into 4th cycle, turning 39 and feeling like my time is running out

Hey! Sorry it’s still a BFN. Did you track your ovulation this month? Or is there a chance it was abit later than predicted x

WishingForTheImpossible · 01/11/2024 17:36

@KT199 this was the first month I'd tried ovulation tests, but every day was the same - none lighter or darker, just the same consistent line every day
I've bought some different ones in home bargains today, thought I'd try them alongside the ones I had last time

SarahFlower · 01/11/2024 17:40

Definitely thinking I am out now. I've just had some spotting, I used to only get spotting the night before AF turned up but last month it started 2 days prior. AF is due on Monday/Tuesday

Ahhh I see. It may be that you have ovulated late then if no BFP and feel your period is late. I tend to buy the easy at home or wondfo off Amazon, managed to find a peak with them each time. Did you test twice daily from the start of your fertile window? Some people miss their surges as they can be really short, but testing twice a day from fertile window can help!

Sorry to hear this. Fingers crossed for next month! 🤞 I will be going into next cycle too, so we may bump into each other on other threads next TWW

WishingForTheImpossible · 01/11/2024 18:26

@KT199 no, I was only testing once a day, around 3pm
We were DTD pretty much every day, and I'm not so sure I have the energy to repeat that!
My last 2 periods have lasted 2 weeks, with just 2 weeks between hence me starting the ovulation testing so perhaps as you say it could be I ovulated late, or I missed it!
This is the screenshot of my Fitbit that I've been tracking
Would you start ovulation testing during AF?

Hey, I’m not sure tbh as I think that’s a really short cycle. Have you spoken with your drs to confirm you are definitely ovulating?

BussiBop23 · 01/11/2024 19:08

Trying to distract myself has hit a new level....today I panelled the staircase!

3 more days to go until AF is due. I'm going to wait until then to test. Still have slightly sore boobs but nothing else.

WishingForTheImpossible · 01/11/2024 19:12

@KT199 not been to the doctor, It may be worth a trip if the ovulation tests show nothing this time round.
I did have a miscarriage earlier this year so if I'm not it's a newish thing, but I guess with my age perimenopause is a real possibility

@BussiBop23 amazing work on the panelling - I have zero DIY skills and have spent the day making builders coffee instead!!!

Babydreamer123 · 02/11/2024 06:56

Hi ladies. I have woken up and taken a test 12dpo and it is positive! I felt off the last couple of days with headache nausea and some spotting so was sure AF was starting but seems not! So just to say if anyone is counting themselves out then don't! My AF is due tomorrow and I've taken countless tests all were negative so I must have implanted later on

Babydreamer123 · 02/11/2024 11:27

Thanks! Unfortunately I took a clear blue and it was negative and I'm also spotting so I fear it's a chemical pregnancy.

WishingForTheImpossible · 02/11/2024 13:06

Oh @Babydreamer123 I'm sorry to read your update - I do hope it isn't, take it easy this weekend
