@1woodpecker I get so impatient I just want to know 😂
I've put them outside in the big bin so I can just forget about it for today at least haha

Good idea 😂

Hello all
Hope ok to join in on the thread, I’m 38 on cycle 7 TTC, AF is two days late and I’ve done two tests this morning, both negative (one a Boots early results one). I feel like I’ve had symptoms and I’m never late, normal cycle is 24-26 days and I’m cycle day 29 now, I track with Flo and the app is telling me I’m late…
I don't really want to talk to anyone about it IRL but feel a bit confused and lost! Feel like I should have a BFP by now as I’m late?!

That's quite a short cycle, do you know when you normally ovulate? It could just be too early to get a positive test. The tests always say X days before your period but I think that's based on a textbook 28 cycle with ovulation on day 14. And it almost never quite works that way x

It sounds promising , but our bodies can also be cruel and mess with us 🤣 have you tested again today??

No, I'm too scared 😳 and I'm surrounded by pregnancy at work!

My cycles are the same length as this! What day do you usually ovulate on?
Do you reckon you ovulated a bit later and this might mean it's not showing up yet?
Either way fingers crossed it turns into a BFP for you soon!! Xx

HollyGolightly4 · 18/11/2024 13:36

Spoke to soon, again 😭

Hi all can I join 👋 3dpo here and just feel so down waiting as I feel like I'm going to be disappointed again 🙈☹️ I had a miscarriage in August, that was cycle 1 ttc so we were thrilled - but no! Trying since and nothing. TTC is no fun - especially now as I've had a miscarriage, I was quite naive before I think as my first pregnancy was so easy etc.

dahlia1224 · 18/11/2024 17:57

12dpo today and my 4th day of really light brown spotting/discharge only when I wipe... AF due tomorrow so waiting to see if I come on before I do another test. Did one yesterday and was BFN no faint lines etc but wasn't my morning wee (not sure if that makes a difference?) fingers crossed for no AF tomorrow 😅I normally get really bad cramps the day/night before so hoping this is good news and AF isn't randomly late when I'm normally dot on, although if she does make an appearance I'm taking this cycle as a "learning experience"

dahlia1224 · 18/11/2024 17:58

also, does anyone have any recommendations for vitamins/supplements that they think helps? I know folic acid is one, so have ordered some from boots to start taking 😊

CoolBananas21 · 18/11/2024 20:11

I'm out for this month 😣.

HA22 · 18/11/2024 22:28

hi guys, 9DPO and I just did a test on a 3 hour hold. My husband can't see anything but I see something very faint. AF due wednesday (28 day average) but i ovulated at CD18 so later than normal. pulling and tugging for a few days and gagged while watching paddington when he used the toothbrushes to clean his ear out and went to taste it Confused let me know what you think x

I don’t see anything on the left hand side picture but definitely feel as though I can see a very faint line on the one on the right! Fingers crossed for you. I laughed out loud at the gagging at Paddington Bear part.

I think I see something!

1woodpecker · 19/11/2024 08:20

I’m 9DPO, I can see a VVVFL in real life, but possibly just an indent. But then why do you sometimes get an indent and sometimes not?

LolaJ87 · 19/11/2024 08:28

@HA22 @1woodpecker I see lines for you both! I hope they continue to darken.

Sorry to those of you who are out this month.

I haven’t shaken the thrush I complained about the other day. I can’t take the oral medication in case I’m pregnant (it’s contraindicated) even though I don’t think I am. This is a MISERABLE 2ww…

Aprilsunnyday · 19/11/2024 09:27

Morning!!
I am out this month as AF showed up but in a way I am quite OK with it, (wasn't sure about the ovulation date and guessing it was not great quality egg this past cycle!), hopefully by a reset my body gets to rest a bit, and benefits.
I will see some of you in our next cycle!

@HA22, it is light but I definitely see a line there - so tentative congratulations. 😊

Mine looks like this today at 8dpo!!
Hopefully they darken for us and aren't nasty indents! Xx

Ooh fingers crossed!! I’m trying to leave it long enough to test again.

rebecca199 · 19/11/2024 10:39

@1woodpecker I think mines a bit lighter than yours as I can't even get it to show on a pic, it's a full on squinter 😂
I'll do one tomorrow as I have no patience to wait lol

HA22 · 19/11/2024 10:51

Thank you for the replies ladies! I went to bed not thinking I was pregnant and woke up to pregnancy after reading your responses! Which obviously motivated me to do another test using FMU.
Is this normal progression?
With my first child, I only did the one test at 11DPO and it was a BFP so I haven't been through this before x

Thank you! I tested again today but probably too dilute, will see how it looks tomorrow

RW269 · 19/11/2024 15:13

Lovely to see some positives and possible positives! I’m currently 8dpo and want to cave so badly and test but know I just end up upsetting myself this early 😂 sending lots of luck to y’all ✨🩷

That looks like good progression to me! Hopeful Congratulations! ✨ try again in a day or two for a hopefully darker line too🤞
