I think the pains subsided and call me crazy (because I legit feel it) I tried to check my cervix and I couldn’t even find it so hoping it’s a good sign it’s tucked well away! 😂 I’m trying to just calm my panic down, I’m so ridiculous so sorry for moaning to you all.

@Lila34830 SO hopeful for you, ahhhh please please please let this month be your month 🤞🤞🤞

😂 I don't think you're crazy at all !!! I would do the same !!

God if I have had all these symptoms for nothing I will look ridiculous, but we shall see !!!
You guys will very likely be one of the first to know 😅🩷

@Lila34830 oh no you won’t look ridiculous, at all, we’ve alllll been there every little niggle 🤣🤣🤣 I can’t wait for you to test!

@KT199 glad the pains have subsided and I agree with cervix!! Each time I’ve had positives my cervix is unreachable 🤣 if my husband saw the stuff I googled or did, he would think I’m actually insane 🤣

@Gemmaemilyx See technically since my period is due Saturday I could do a 6 days early BUT, I am only 7dpo so I don't think it would show at all ??
I assume the 6 days early are for LPs that are 14 days long ? Mine is about 11/12 days long ...
which dpo were you on bfp ??

Yes, I think as with everything it's based on a standard 28 day/14 day LP cycle, so FRERs claim with their 6 days early then that you can get a BFP at 8dpo, but if you look at the stats in the leaflets, that early misses a lot of what will become BFPs....

The earliest I got BFPs was 10dpo with FRERs (and Boots early pregnancy- even though they're 10miu rather than the 6.5miu of FRERs), and 11dpo with One Steps (and those were absolute squinters). I wouldn't touch blue dye tests with a barge pole unless you're late. From what I've seen in here CBs are so tricky to interpret in early days and they all give evaps after about half an hour anyway, so best to wait with those until you're certain of a thick blue line!

Lila34830 · 09/12/2024 10:20

@curliegirlie exactly, I've only done a clear blue ultra early one once I had a BFP (chemical last cycle).
I have a FRER. So I will test but not yet... trying to keep busy in work !
I did not know the FRER were 6.5 miu this is so sensitive !

OP posts:
curliegirlie · 09/12/2024 10:40

Yep, I know. It's crazy that they've been withdrawn from general sale in the UK (explaining why they've pretty much doubled the price on Amazon etc! I remember the halycon days of 7 years ago and more when they were often on BOGOF in Boots...!). I don't know any others with the same sensitivity.

There can't be many of us left surely! (Which is so lovely when you think about it.)

But yeah we should only be around half capacity for this thread so far so may not need a new one just yet!

Lila34830 · 09/12/2024 13:17

I see you @littlebluu 😂🩷
Hopefully we both get out of here asap too 🤣

So, don't judge me, because I've gone from chilled to insane in 0.5 seconds.
No test in the house, went to test LH thinking maybe I can catch a surge that could in fact be hcg,
Guys, my LH is ZERO 😂 NIL.
Stark white.
I guess this is the universe telling me to wait 🤣

Omg 😆 LH test is pranking you, normally it's never white haha.

Well maybe hold on a little while longer.

I’m still here, lurking 😂 you’ll usually hear me during the tww then I disappear annoyed once AF shows up….standard 😂

Gemmaemilyx · 09/12/2024 23:42

@Lila34830 just for science I have continued to test LH, it was around 0.3 from 7-10dpo (positive pregnancy 9dpo very faint!!) then around 0.6 at 11dpo and then positive on 12dpo, so it takes a good old while for the lh to detect hcg from my experiment🤣🤣

Hahahah the things we do !!!
I received my frer and it's a digital !!! Not what I wanted 😂
I used @KT199 technique and had a wee before even thinking of testing this morning 😅 that way I am not tempted !

Love it 😂 I usually disappear during AF and then come back moaning that my LH isn't increasing 😂

I caved and bought a clear blue ultra early as it was the only early one there, and it's stark white. I'm 8/9 dpo, Period due on Saturday, I feel like I'm out ... but we shall see... I think I'll only be testing if AF isn't here by Saturday as I don't want to go through the disappointment a second time 😩
I was doing so good, this week has been crazy so far.

OP posts:
KT199 · 10/12/2024 10:54

@Lila34830 I’ve done it myself the last two mornings too, the line progression was putting me in a pit of anxiety that just wasn’t healthy so I’m trying to stop testing.

Argh so disappointing about the BFN but I think most dinos have had their lines from 10DPO so your not out yet 🤞 fingers crossed no AF arrives Saturday!!

Gemmaemilyx · 10/12/2024 11:58

@KT199 ive been worried about my line progression with easy at home tests. They are so slow to get darker! However I did a clear blue this morning which shows a blazing positive so trying not to think too much into it. I’m with you though it’s sooo worrying! 😭🩷

@Lila34830 sorry to hear about the bfn! But it’s still super early! I got a bfn in the morning of 9dpo and a very faint in the afternoon and I was SURE I was out this month like yourself - may surprise you 🥰 how many cycles have you been trying? Also it’s really common to get successfully pregnant after a CP. So I have everything crossed! Xxx
