TTC TWW July 2025

[Ec2808]

Hi everybody! I was originally active on another thread but can't keep up far too many messages [hard to get a word in] and the most people seem to be way further in their tww. As for me 32 ttc cycle #5 after chemical pregnancy in March..this will be 3rd and last baby..CD 19 today 4 DPO fingers crossed....who else is a similar dpo/point in their cycle? feel very lonely at the moment and the tww is always soo hard..😕

@HansBanans I know such a mindfield- and I got cheapie opks so I could do 2 a day and the line was always as thick as the control. I found them so hard to read! But problem with clear blue is once it think you've peaked you can't use them again.

@Ec2808 have a great holiday. They sell tests out there don't they 😂

And yes we bd a lot for us and i am tired 😂

Someone's posted an August thread

https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/conception/5383968-ttc-august-2025

These are my charts.....

After Seeing lots of imaginary lines i have decided to order frers .. I have looked at reviews on Amazon for these tests I’m using and lots of complaints … anyone else used these ? I see shadows but no true positives .. 9 dpo today and feel sad that I’m not getting some decent lines - can’t help but feel I’m out .. even though I know it’s early and depending on times I could be 8dpo
is everyone loosing their marbles at this point or just me ??

@rainbowsnacki think that’s the one where you can’t get a word in 🤣🤣

@Kenziecaissie are you temping at the same time each day? Easy at home have a bbt thermometer for under £10 which might be worth a shout too

@Tes004 that’s so frustrating 😢 which tests are they just so we know to avoid

@HansBanans They are the Amazon wonfo ones . I’ve just read so many people not getting positives on them and then positive on frer and even didgi but still not on them and also full on false positives - wish I read the reviews - I have ordered frer but put to deliver tomo as if I had it tonight I’d prob use it - buy myself another day lol

@Tes004 I’d heard good things about those ones so that’s a shame ☹️ good shout re getting it delivered tomorrow 8/9dpo is still early days so still plenty time for a BFP 🤞🏻

Haha @Ec2808 I can't keep jumping from thread to thread I get confused!

@Kenziecaissie my alarm goes off at 6am and intest immediately before even sitting up in bed. I got a cheapie thermometer off amazon and haven't had any issues.

@Tes004 its still early so don't feel too hopeless! I always thought implantation occurs between day 6 and 10 so you may hsve not even implanted yet! It's so hard though and even though I'm not letting myself symptom spot i must have looked at my bbt graph 20 times today, as if its going to turn into a 'congratulations' sign

@Tes004 There is definitely a line there. Does it look any darker compared to your previous ones? I've not used that brand before so can't comment about false positives but I so hope it's not the case for you! My easy@home tests have been sooo faint compared to the frer. Mine today was still quite faint but a good solid line on the frer so I just think the lines aren't good on the cheapies when testing this early. Hopefully you will get a more definitive answer tomorrow 🤞❤️

Morning, still BFN for me at 9dpo. I think the dip at 7dpo must’ve just been a weird temp dip rather than implantation 😕

@HansBanansoooh sorry to hear that 😕 still early tho!🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Bexfizz25 no progression at all, so I don’t believe the lines are positive - they are just like shadows . I have my frers coming tonight so I will try to hold out - keep doing the ic to use them up but wish I had waited - I don’t feel like I’m coming on anytime soon. Usually this time of cycle I have every symptom possible.
my lh level’s seem to be rising again as been keeping an eye on them.
@HansBanans same day as me - well I got my peak 5pm 26/7 so either 9 or 10 for me- what tests are you using ? X

@Tes004sorry to heat that…just to let you know last month my lh increased to very high levels but then AF came…so it is possible for pregnancy but also if AF is on her way…😕😕

@Tes004 I’m using easy at home tests, used one steps prior to that and they were terrible for shadows

@Ec2808 true but definitely starting to lose hope 😂

This is my test from this morning so would have expected more .. unless it’s just awful tests

@Tes004 hopefully just awful tests and you get a clear positive on the frer 🤞🏻

I’ve taken this with SMU. I feel like my eye is catching something but not sure if I’m just willing something to be there or if it’s an indent 🙈

@HansBanans I’m seeing lines and shadows everywhere these days so I don’t trust my eyes at all !! Just hope we are testing too early and will start to see some clearer results soon.
I love seeing people’s progression as it shows how squinters can be the real deal. But when you see so many early bfp it does make you feel like the minority and no chance - even though I Google everything and the majority don’t get there’s until closer to af … 🤞 for us all

@Tes004 yeah it is quite disheartening but everyone is different I guess. I’ve just looked back at my cycle from when I got pregnant with my son and I took a test on cd28 which was completely negative and then on cd30 I got a decent positive. Then cd32 was lighter and I thought I was having a chemical. Tested again on cd33 and it was blazing positive so god knows what was going on but can only hope I’m a late bloomer lol. I’m only cd26 today so there is still time but would be nice to know lol

@HansBanans sorry to hear of the BFN today 😔 I can see what you mean in the smu test but I think the easy@home tests always have shadows unfortunately 😭 hopefully tomorrow there’ll be a line 🤞🏼 I tested negative the day before my BFP with my implantation dip cycle

@Ec2808 what time is your flight today? I bet you’re excited to get away and take your mind off the TWW 😂

my temp didn’t go up much this morning and my lh has gone back up again, hopefully it’ll even out over the coming days I just hope I actually have ovulated

@JupiterDaze it’s so annoying 😢 I think if af shows then next month I’ll skip the OPKs and bbt and just take it as it comes. Then test around cd33 if no af. My cycles always used to be 33 days but seem to be anywhere between 28 and 33 days just now 🙄

Aside from the dip at 4dpo the temps are largely above your pre ovulation temps so hopefully you did ovulate 🤞🏻 the opk could just be due to more concentrated pee this morning

Took a test... negitive. 9dpo. I had systems but nothing now. Got a bad feeling I'm out this month.

@Kenziecaissie I’m also 9dpo and same for me today. But it’s early and there’s still time, implantation might not have even happened yet

I suppose. I just know when I ovulated I assumed I get a faint line. I had all those cramps at 5 6 7 dpo... just discouraged. I'm not getting any younger and I'll be 38 in March.
@HansBanans ❤❤
