Parking my butt here as I’ve had a BFN on a cheapie today at [roughly] 10dpo so I’m not feeling super hopeful. I know it’s still early but just feeling a bit meh. I am moody as hell, bloated and my boobs are absolutely killing me but I keep telling myself it has to be progesterone causing that as if it was HCG it would surely be coming up on a test 🫠

I am only on cycle 2 - I am pretty sure I had a chemical last month as dipped 3 tests in the same wee (I’m a certified nutter) and all 3 came back with the faintest line - posted on here and others could see it too but alas turned BFN and ended up with AF.

I think I tested 4 times yesterday. 4 times. Anyone else a POAS addict?

HansBanans · 25/09/2025 19:45

@olivehush POAS addict here too! That does sound like a chemical 😕 hopefully this is your month tho 🤞🏻 I’ve banned myself from testing until cd32 as I’ve wasted at least £100 on tests on the past 5 months 😂

Anya23 · 25/09/2025 19:50

@olivehushI did that when we weren't even trying to conceive, just accidentally dtd like four days before ovulation and I thought I'll be pregnant 😂
@HansBanansI don't even know how much I've wasted on LH and pregnancy tests, although I'm trying to buy cheap tests, and I'll just keep a frer around just in case 🤞

olivehush · 25/09/2025 19:57

@HansBanans I’ve got a load of cheapie one steps from Amazon but I’ve banned myself from FRERs since I peed on one at 6dpo and got upset that it was negative 🙃

HansBanans · 25/09/2025 19:59

@Anya23 oh I forgot the LH tests! And the Flo and fertility friend subscriptions 😂 cost of the bbt thermometer. It all adds up!

@olivehush if it makes you feel any better I’ve poas on like cd6 before after convincing myself that my heavy period just had to be implantation bleeding because we’d dtd in the fertile window 😂

olivehush · 26/09/2025 07:31

@HansBanans ahhh 🥲 it’s crazy what it does to my brain seriously!!

11dpo BFN this morning.

anyone testing today?

I did. 13 DPO BFN. I'll wait for AF to come on Monday / Tuesday

Anya23 · 26/09/2025 10:22

Also bought some beetroot juice today for the next tww, and I'll start myo inositol in a few days, once I'm finished with royal jelly supplements.
I feel so bad for going at this so crazy but I think I want this to happen so fast because otherwise I'm going back to work April / May, so we have at most half a year for conceiving. I know realistically that's a really good chance but still I'm driving myself crazy :(

Oh boooo. I think I will do one last cheapie tomorrow and if that’s BFN I’m done and waiting for AF!

I know what you mean, even though that seems like a lot of time, having a deadline is a bit of added pressure isn’t it! How old is your DD?

Fingers crossed for you still🤞
DD is 17 months, she'll be 2 in April, so she'll start daycare if I'm not pregnant by then 🙂I'm just nervous lol, I don't want to go back to work then immediately get pregnant lol, that's what I'm afraid of mainly 🤣

Hi ladies, glad to have found this thread! I am currently 2dpo and I’m obsessed with what may or not be happening. Hoping this thread will bring me some much needed sanity 🤞
Good luck to you all x

Ah, I am 3 dpo so were at a similiar stage. I am hoping the weekend will make it feel like time is going quicker than the past couple of days.

Totally agree! The last few days have really dragged for me! Do you have a plan about when you might test? X

I am not sure - in my head I will be calm and try and hold out but in reality I will probably too early. What about you? x

Haha I’m already not being calm 🙄 I’ve got some internet cheapies so I will probably just start at some point mid-late next week and not feel too bad for doing it because they’re only cheap 🤣 I got a positive with my son on a cheapie before my period was due so who knows 🤷‍♀️ x

wonderlust07 · 26/09/2025 14:13

Same - I got a positive with my dpo 10 (I think) but I only tested that morning because my dog was acting weird. She unfortunately has since passed away so I won't have a clue this time. I did hope with work, son, life I will be more distracted this time as well but thats not the case so far. 😂

VanessaShanessaJenkins99 · 26/09/2025 14:20

Hi All :)
I am CD8 - we started trying in March - i fell pregnant on our 2nd cycle but unfortunately i had a miscarriage at 6 weeks 6 days!
I am now on the 4th cycle since then - i am 42 and have PCOS so i worry a lot that i have left it too late!
We have a little boy who is nearly 3 and i conceived him on our 2nd cycle when i was 39. I have spoken to the doctor who said that the fact that i have had him relatively recently is a good sign! I had bloods taken earlier this month to test all the usual pre pregnancy things and they have all come back normal so its just a case of keeping on trying!

Digby86 · 26/09/2025 16:21

Ladies I am OBSESSING! I’ve committed to not testing since 14dpo so instead am seemingly checking opks and bbt like an insane person 😂 I’ve had double surges in previous months so keeping an eye on things in case what I thought was ovulation wasn’t in fact ovulation.

8dpo and today my bbt and opk results hwve suddenly shot up. I feel like I’m getting ny hopes up that this actually means something. Like a crazy person!

fullofhope2024 · 27/09/2025 08:13

Morning ladies, I’m 8dpo today and had the most vivid nightmare last night.
I normally have vivid dreams each cycle but this was off the scale. Trying to hold off as long as I can before testing

JupiterDaze · 27/09/2025 09:01

I’m 8dpo today as well, this is my chart currently. Feeling optimistic 🤞🏼 I’ve already tested this morning 😂 I feel like I have a squinter on a frer and e@h but obviously doesn’t show in pictures.

baby dust to all waiting for a BFP 💕

TTC TWW October 2025 🫶🏻
Anya23 · 27/09/2025 09:43

@JupiterDazeFingers crossed 🤞
I had some very light spotting unfortunately, so I'll get AF in about two days
I might go back to silently lurking for now, as I feel really negative about the spotting each cycle, and cycles getting shorter... This one will be about 26 days

olivehush · 27/09/2025 13:23

Ugh sorry @Anya23 I know what you mean I tend to silently lurk…until about 10dpo) then I become active again. Best to do whatever suits you best!

@JupiterDaze best of luck! Do you usually hold out for AF or are you an early tester like us 🤣

@fullofhope2024 ahhh I also had the weirdest most vivid dream last night! I wonder if it means something…

@Digby86 sounds promising, hope this is your month!

@VanessaShanessaJenkins99 great what the Dr said, hope it happens soon for you! Fertile window soon?

12dpo BFN for me so I’m out 🙄 I did like 3 tests with the same FMU and thought I could see a squinter on 2, BFN on 1. Then looked back a few hours later and looked like a squinter on just 1 after all so I reckon dodgy test. I’ve told myself not to accept squinters anyway and it has to be at least a clear faint positive to get excited 😆

roll on October TTC
