May 2025 TTC Support Thread #2!

[Muddysocks1]

As suggested, because so many of us on the other thread, shall we have a little roll call?

@am44ai think they might be evaps :(

@am44a I would disregard anything outside of the test window cause it isn't reliable. I also don't think I can see anything. Maybe give it another couple of days to test x

Yeah I have a two litre bottle of squash on me most of the time.

I think I’ll try testing a few times a day at the same time. Something like 8am, 3pm and midnight I think. See if I can at least see when they might be getting darker.

@EmPeEf I'd say you'll definitely catch it that way!

Can anyone help please, on both box's of each, first response and clear blue digital early detect, they say 10miu sensitivity.

However I've seen loads of stuff floating around that says the clear blue digital isn't actually as sensitive as first response?

Now I swear I can see faint on one first response. But the clear blue digital says not pregnant

But the first response was done 1 day ago, the second first response was massively dented so didn't count and the clear blue digital was today.

@am44aI agree with @SureLook personally I would stick with FRER as well. I on ow they’re expensive but are mostly super reliable and early detection.
@YKM2829
I have only used a digital for the first time this week so don’t know much about them I’m afraid.
Get some more frer and test again with fmu?

@EmPeEf I’m by no means an expert, but I believe that LH tests are most effective after 8 in the morning and before 8 at night. Might be worth looking into?

@Bas27 definitely, thank you.

Tested this morning at 10dpo and was negative. I know I’m not out until AF shows but going to presume so. I’m 40 now so not expecting to catch first cycle properly trying and to be honest I’m ok either way it this month as we go on holiday in 2 weeks so can enjoy a couple drinks and no pregnancy symptoms. I should ovulate whilst away and then be in tww so should be able to relax a bit and not symptom spot so much. Hopefully it’s a little holiday baby

@YKM2829 I'm not too familiar with sensitivity of tests. I never really look into it beforehand. I've always kept my digital until I was sure.

@Bumblebee1984 glad you're feeling ok!

I know it is too early to see if I have ovulated or not, but could someone have a look at my chart and tell me if it’s looking promising or not? 🤞🏻
It’s my first cycle charting BBT & my first cycle TTC after a very long and complicated MC. xxx

@EmilyF88il not an expert but it looks like you have ovulated because of the positive opk followed by a sharp rise in bbt (this happens after ovulation I think)

@Bas27🤞🏻🤞🏻 thank you xxx

Hey ladies af is due soon so i’m assuming im out at this point however I got this today the line come up within the time but I can’t tell if its just wet?

I’ll get a fr when i’m back home if af hasn’t arrived by then:) I would’ve got a different brand test today but there’s no shops by me atm

Also i’ve been feeling extremely sick since yesterday and have a weird bad taste in my mouth. I know it’s prob not pregnancy related as i’ve not got a bfp just very odd!

@am44ai can see that line on the test but would test on frer. metallic taste is a pregnancy thing but could be you are very very early! If you atr sick due to pregnancy hormones an frer should show it, eagerly waiting and hoping you get a bfp!

@am44a I agree with @Cocoqx I think I can see something but you should test with a FRER whenever you can get one.

@am44aim not sure I can really see anything. Agree with others that if you were feeling sick from pregnancy it should show on a test. Keeping fingers crossed for you. I’m just waiting for AF to show too

Popping in from sunny Fuerterventura to say I just got a positive OPk 😜 🍹

@Disneybride time to get to it 😈

Has a June group been made yet? ❤️

@EmilyF88 a June thread was definitely made a while back. This thread is nearly full!

Well I'm out and moving over to the June thread, AF came yesterday so just waiting for ovulation week commencing 7th 😮‍💨

@YKM2829 sorry to hear that ❤️

As expected AF arrived this morning so onto cycle 2 for me. See you guys in the June thread

@Bumblebee1984 sorry to hear that ❤️

@surelookOh was it? 😂 I’ve looked for it but can’t find it x
