I started the obsession at 9dpo, literally the line that am with FMU was as embarrassingly white as you’d expect for testing that early. But it changed by the evening to a shadow. I still cannot believe it changes that quickly when there really is a bean sticking in there. The obsessive testing has massively helped me feel in control this month after the lines disappearing last month. So if you need to obsess a little for your own sanity- go ahead 🤣 praying for this cycle for you! Xx

Haha oh you managed to hold off for a while though!!
I literally needed a wee in the night last night and made myself hold it til this morning for my FMU 🤣 I am going banana ahaha.
but yeh was literally sooo white, nothing to see at all! But gives me hope to know that it’s still early and you also had a negative on 9dpo morning!
how are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms yet?xx

@bigbird1234 Thank you, can’t wait to get in there now and see what’s happening.

@Muddysocks1 Thank you lovely, the letter I’ve received has said I’m not allowed to go to toilet half hour before the appointment so think I will struggle 🤣 I’m 6DPO today too. When do you plan on testing?

Did anybody else struggle to get into this thread today? They’ve removed the numbers for the pages on the top of the screen and now got to scroll all the way through so I’m getting lost 🤣

No way! No one told me that.. I wouldn’t cope 🤣
I imagine I’ll probably test from 8dpo even though when I had a Bfp before that was on 10dpo, but I probably won’t be able to resist. When will you?

Yes, it’s defo still early too! It just feels good to be doing something after the first week in the TWW 😂
Im doing ok, I think I had more symptoms in my first pregnancy than right now. But I guess maybe it’s different with your second. Breathlessness was the first thing I noticed with my DS, my PBs on runs for slower and slower and I found it harder. And it’s the same this time, I’m out of breath just walking now 🤣 other than that. Not much else going on that doesn’t feel like totally normal PMS!

jelliebean9 · 03/06/2025 10:16

Told DH this morning. 13dpo, period due tomorrow. So I assume that makes it 4 weeks tomorrow? Or is it 28 days since your last period is when you turn 4 weeks? I get muddled. Anyway, I’ve got one CB weeks test left and then I’m stopping testing and leaving it to fate. Plenty of you have advised again carrying on testing past 4 weeks. So I’m going to go with that advice. Praying for you all this month. I’ll try and keep up to date with who’s testing and when 🩷🩷

Yay lines look great!

Personally I did test for another week, but for me I just had a feeling it would be a chemical (as progression slowed after 15dpo) and it felt better to know what was going on. I think if I get a Bfp again I’ll test for a Week after period due BUT I know general advice is stop testing once you get a positive!

Muddysocks1 · 03/06/2025 11:18

On testing early…

I was listening to someone saying they don’t test until after period is due because they want to make the most of “I could be pregnant” in the 2WW. Like doing all the things you can’t do when pregnant (like lifestyle, food, drink etc). I am quite the opposite and just want to know asap.. but might try adopting that attitude and see if it feels any better 😬

hollyhocks2 · 03/06/2025 11:20

@BeNavyLion I'm 3DPO too, and yes, obsessing and can't concentrate on work at all. Trying to channel the energy into healthy snacks and drinking lots of water. No motivation for work at all! Even though lots to do! Argh. When are you going to test? You can give the pretend answer and the real answer haha

I’ve got about 20 PreMom tests left. This will be our last DC if this sticks.. so now I’m tempted to do this, just under the cause of ‘they’ll go to waste’ 🤪😂

peanutForever · 03/06/2025 11:32

wahay AF is here :) CD1 😂 @Muddysocks1that seems like sound advice for those casually trying but i wont be able to hold out now i have multiple cheapies il be testing early lol i know it, i have a good feeling about this month already!

I was really good last month and didn’t test until 11DPO so I’ll probably wait, but it seems soooooo long away 😩

MummyV2021 · 03/06/2025 11:37

AF has arrived as expected for me today! But I’ll stick in this thread as likely still test in June if I have my usual 28/29 day cycle and ovulate CD14/15 as normal! It will mean that I’ll have been taking my new supplements for 3 months almost by the time I ovulate next so hopefully enough time to have made a difference to my egg quality 🤞🏼🙏🏼 bonus aswell is I can only get fitter/stronger in this time too as getting to the gym 4 times a week and am doing the 60 miles in June challenge for Tommy’s! Have done 8 miles in first 2 days and already raised £300 so feeling super positive in general! Lots to keep my occupied this month 💪🏻 me and hubby have also signed up to do a mixed doubles hyrox style event in August so if it does happen this month I’ll be doing that 8 weeks preggo (might have to check I can still do it!) best of luck to us all in the thick of it this month!

Ditto! I was just thinking this / in my 2WW if I’m working from home I feel like I’m being so unproductive as I’m so distracted!

I accidentally ordered 2 big boxes so I’ve got sooo many 🙈

BellaStar2020 · 03/06/2025 11:47

hi all, hoping to join this threat. Not actively trying to conceive but DTD on 15th May and have had some symptoms similar to my first pregnancy since.

i did a clear blue ultra early test this morning and within the window it said negative. I came back to it after taking my daughter to school and there was a faint blue line. Aware this could be an evap line but I also read that they are usually grey. I may be making something out of nothing but anyone had similar?

I’ve noticed that the PreMom tests I have and the clear blue ultra early test I did today. Both initially come up with the positive in the time frame. But after the window when you’re meant to disregard result, the positive line fades to a thin thin line with colour. I think these are the evaps people are getting after the time frame. A true result is what is displayed within the time frame. Anything over I think renders it invalid. Sorry lovely. Not the news you’d like to hear. Test again in 48 hours 🙏 xxx

hollyhocks2 · 03/06/2025 11:57

@BellaStar2020 what CD are you on, and how long are your cycles usually? Are they regular? You say not actively trying but would you welcome a positive pregnancy test? I haven't had a false positive with CB but have read on here that it happens, seems pink dye are considered more reliable on MN.

jelliebean9 · 03/06/2025 11:57

Muddysocks1 · 03/06/2025 11:41

Have you got the PreMom ones? I’ve honestly been so impressed with them. No dye bleed or indents, or even evaps on the negatives (within the testing window time)! And they were only £8 for 20!

Haha I'll probably test 7DPO and then everyday from then which I know is insane but there you go 🤣🤣🤣 I'm working away for a few days which should keep me busy during the days at least but the evenings will still be spent googling symptoms (even though I know them all by now haha)

this will be me too!

BellaStar2020 · 03/06/2025 12:01

@jelliebean9thank you!

@hollyhocks2 I am 9DPO today, they are usually 26 days in length I have had the odd one over the last few years that has been 24 days.
I would be really happy with a positive. My husband wanted to stick with one but he was ok when I told him that I felt like I may be pregnant the other day. It’s only the symptoms that made me test.
I think it’s likely an evap line it’s just very blue and I read on another post that the positive can show up to 10 mins (I tested waited the 3 mins and then put it to one side as my daughter wanted me).

Yeah totally haha, I’m going to clean the house when I finish work to just keep my mind off and then do a test before bed 🤞🏻

glad you’re feeling good though! I also was so breathless in my first pregnancy hah, went for a run last night hoping it might be the last fast one in a while 🤣

charlzz · 03/06/2025 12:50

Hey everyone! Long time no see, I took a few weeks out after last month as that second chemical in a row really took it out of me! Managed not to think about it too much so far this cycle, but the crazies are slowly creeping back in now so I'm back and 9dpo today. 😂 we only managed to DTD o-2 and o+1 this month due to a super busy weekend so I'm not super confident but there's still a chance! Negative test this morning but obviously 9dpo is very early. I have a GP appointment on Monday to discuss the two chemicals in a row, so if I'm not pregnant this month it feels good to still have a plan. I'm hoping just to get some bloods (thyroid, iron, maybe progesterone if they'll do it) to check if there's any physical reason for the losses or if they were just bad luck. Baby dust to everyone!!

Disneybride · 03/06/2025 13:02

Sorry I’m so far behind, congratulations @jelliebean9 !!

I had back surgery today, “is there any chance you could be pregnant?” Thanks for that negative test 😩

My period is due tomorrow too! I’m yet to test as no tests arrived. But just praying AF doesn’t turn up tomorrow 🙏
would I be mad to test tonight or wait till morning?

Muddysocks1 · 03/06/2025 15:54

Obviously I caved and tested WAY too early and then spent half an hour staring at the tests and wiggling them in the light as convinced I saw “something”. I think the issue with easy at home, is you can a very very slightly reflective line where the test line would get colour if positive, which when you’re testing early tricks you into thinking it could be a VVFL. When the light catches it
You see where the line would go and it’s really deceptive!

@Muddysocks1 this was me yesterday....sooo annoying!
