Morning ladies !

@GrapefruitZestomg I see it !!! How many dpo are you ??

I see it too @GrapefruitZestπŸŽ‰

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 07:48

BFN for me this morning as well at 9 dpo. There’s still time @WF1990youre not out until AF arrives!

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 07:53

@EllieWalesyou and I in the same boat ! AF is due tomorrow, so I think I’m just going to wait ! But my boobs haven’t stopped being very sore for days now! So progesterone doesn’t seem on its way down yet. Maybe my luteal phase will be longer of a day !

@WF1990 there’s something there isn’t there! I’m 11dpo today. Trying (and failing) not to get too ahead of myself, but very excited to test again tomorrow and fingers crossed for a darker line. Definitely don’t count yourself out until AF arrives, 10dpo is early for a positive.

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 08:16

If the spotting yesterday was implantation @WF1990it could still be too early for a positive. What test did you use this morning? I used the clear blue 6 days early but it was stark white.

Theres still hope for us this month and if it’s not our month there’s always next month. At least we’ll have a couple weeks off symptom spotting (and stuffing my face like I’m eating for two πŸ˜‚)

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 08:23

@GrapefruitZest I am super excited for you !!!
And you’re both right @EllieWalesmaybe I need to wait a bit more, I tested with premom strips so it’s 10miu/L sensitivity, and there was no doubt there ! Stark white ! Only time will tell us I guess ! You’re still early at 9dpo !!

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 09:18

pink spotting upon wiping over here …. I’m wearing a pad but there’s nothing on the pad. Still very sore boobs radiating under the arm, but no cramps at all and no feeling that af is coming. Just a pulling sensation on the right side. Arrrrrg it’s so annoying!

LovelyMuddles · 25/07/2025 09:41

Good morning lovely ladies, I tested negative this morning at 9dpo. Thought there may be a tiny line on my line eyes but think I’m clutching. I’m aware it’s early so going to wait 2 days and use a FRER. Using an Amazon cheapie and reviews say they’re crap!

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 09:48

Oh really ? Did you use thenpremom ones @LovelyMuddles?
I hope you line darkens !!

im puzzled on my side I kind of want to order FRERS but also since AF is due tomorrow I don’t want to waste anymore money !

OP posts:
LovelyMuddles · 25/07/2025 10:21

I used the one step ones but I’ve seen people online be weeks pregnant and barely getting a line. They also claim to be 10 in detection but apparently they’re not so who knowsπŸ₯²

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 10:43

@WF1990spotting is positive especially as you don’t usually spot in the run up to AF and I’ve read a lot about pulling/tugging sensations around implantation and it usually takes place between 6-10dpo I think so you’re still in the window of possibility! I’m also in the same boat with ordering tests, I should’ve ordered them sooner and feel it’s too late now so I’ll go to tesco and drop another Β£11 on two clear blue 6 days early tests 🫠

Hi @LovelyMuddleswere the same at 9dpo! I was planning on waiting until Sunday evening if this mornings test was negative as we’re camping this weekend but I already know full well I’m going to buy some tests to try again tomorrow morning.

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 10:48

I’m still having some cramps but nothing show stopping. I started getting heartburn yesterday which has continued into today, I haven’t had heartburn since I gave up alcohol two months ago. The feeling of breathlessness/unfitness (if that’s even a word) has also continued into today which is odd I often run 5-15k and wouldn’t consider myself to be unfit. I do feel a bit sniffly today so could be just that I’m coming down with something who knows!

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 11:01

Is anyone paying attention to CM? I don’t usually so I’m not sure what’s unusual or not for a β€˜normal’ cycle. I feel like there’s more of it today when I’m wiping but again not sure if that’s normal/significant

GrapefruitZest · 25/07/2025 11:13

@EllieWales I’ve been feeling similar, heartburn on and off for a few days now. I used to get heartburn a lot a few years ago, but I’ve not had it since the last time I was pregnant recently when I miscarried, and before that I can’t remember when I last had it! I’ve also had that general unfit feeling too.
Ive noticed more CM this time, but when I was pregnant a few months ago I had nothing at this stage. It’s so hard to know what’s a genuine symptom and what’s me trying to find something.

GrapefruitZest · 25/07/2025 11:14

What tests do people recommend? I’ve been using the premom ones, but now I’m starting to think I might actually be pregnant, thinking of buying some more tests

LovelyMuddles · 25/07/2025 11:53

Definitely not one step! Though I was sure I got a flicker of a line this morning!

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 12:06

@EllieWalesi have my fingers crossed for both of us !
I went toilet and when I wiped (I know sorry TMI) I had EWCM mixed with brown and pink blood ! Nothing on the pad.
I feel like I’m cramping a bit though so my optimism is fading!
I agree @GrapefruitZestsometimes I think I have a new symptoms but then I look back on my Flo app and I had the exact same symptoms when I wasn’t pregnant πŸ˜‚
@LovelyMuddlesi think I can see something v v v faint ! 🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼

EllieWales · 25/07/2025 12:41

@GrapefruitZestthank you for making me feel more sane! I haven’t had heartburn for so long and it’s awful. Making me feel hopeful given your line this morning though 🀞

@WF1990from what I’ve read online CM is meant to dry up at this stage so a return to sticky/EW could be a good sign! I can’t wait to test again tomorrow even though every negative feels like a BIG reminder that I’m probably just losing the plot 🀣

WF1990 · 25/07/2025 13:13

@EllieWalesdont worry if I’m negative tomorrow after all this I’ll definitely consider I’ve lost the plot too just in time for the weekend 🀣🀣🀣

OP posts:
EllieWales · 26/07/2025 06:08

I think that’s me out this month another bfn this morning on a clear blue ultra early at 10dpo

GrapefruitZest · 26/07/2025 07:11

I think it might be a bit early still, implantation could be happening today. I read that you shouldn’t really test before 12dpo (not that it stopped me, testing from 7 days πŸ˜…).
If it makes you feel any better my 10dpo was without doubt negative, and I’ve been getting VFL on different brands for the past two days. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

positivethoughts1 · 26/07/2025 08:04

Hi ladies, thank you all for your responses. This was this morning at 11DPO and had a β€œpregnant” result yesterday at 10DPO with a clear blue digital intro early!

im keeping my fingers crossed for everyone in the thread 🀞 this was our first month temping and OPKs so it looks like that has made a difference!

Thanks @GrapefruitZestI think I’m going to wait and see if AF arrives on Monday now and take it from there (unless I wake up tomorrow and decide to test which is very likely). It’s only our first cycle TTC properly this time around so it was wishful thinking anyway πŸ˜… and congratulations, happy to be seeing some BFP in here ❀️

@positivethoughts1congratulations mama! That’s amazing news πŸŽ‰

WF1990 · 26/07/2025 08:24

Hey ladies ! After spotting pink all day yesterday af arrived this morning so that’s me out !
@EllieWalesive got everything crossed for you !!
