5dpo

[CherryBakewellPie]

Is anyone else 5dpo or near and going insane? This is my second month ttc baby number 3. With my previous two pregnancies I got a bfp 11 days after my positive opk. This time that will fall on new years day! I would love some company to keep me sane and away from the stash of internet cheapies I've got which are loudly calling to me!

Me 🙋‍♀️
I'm 6dpo today cycle 3 ttc#3. I started testing like a mad thing last cycle at 5dpo and drove myself mad so I'm really hoping to hold out until this day next week. The only thing that is stopping me is the fact I've none in the house😆 fingers crossed for you 🤞

Ohh hey 👋🏼 when is your period due? If you manage to hold out until next week I'll be very impressed...(and jealous!) I've been getting some low down shooting pains today which I'm definitely reading too much into, but hoping it might be implantation and I'll be on track for a vvvvvfp on new year's Eve 🤞🏼

Not until the 7th, I have shorter cycles,( 25/26 days) you? We are staying in my partners house for two weeks until I go back to work next Monday and I purposely left the tests at home so I wouldn't be tempted however there is a boots just around the corner from here😆 how many cycles did it take for your other two if you don't mind me asking? My other two (12 And 2) were unplanned so this whole ttc world is all so new to me

I think I’m 8dpo. First month off the pill. Trying to hold out until Thursday to test.

We've been really lucky, my 7yo was conceived first cycle, my 5yo was conceived on the second cycle. Very aware that I'm older now so worried that's going to play a part but I'm not going to start worrying yet. We were on the fence about a third for so long, hence the bigger gap!
Period is due on 6th, so hoping something might be picked up by new year day at the latest. Have you been tracking ovulation? Or are you more relaxed than me?!

I haven’t been testing but had noticeable ewcm so going off that.
how old are you? I have 3dc with exh

I'm 35 next month! Crossing everything that it happens quickly for us all. Is this your first month of trying?

I haven't been tracking just like hopeful said just going off ewcm and general feeling, I just feel like if I started that It would just be another thing to obsess about. But I'll give it another couple of cycles then start tracking with strips. I'm 36 and partner is 48 so I have a feeling age will play a factor this time.

First month trying for me and I’m 39

Hi @CherryBakewellPie and @hopeful2026 did you both manage not to test so far? Hoping for good news for you both, I haven't tested yet but I feel the exact same as this time last month which didn't end in pregnancy so I think I'm just waiting for my period now which should be next Wednesday but have a feeling it will be early as I ovulated early

I tested this morning and it was a bfn. I knew 10 days after my peak lh in my previous two pregnancies, which falls on today and makes me think I'm out again this month. However, chatgpt seems to think I'm only 8-9dpo from the information I've given it so I guess the next few days will tell...
Well done for staying strong on the testing front. Crossing my fingers for you!

I did test on Tuesday and bfn. Tempted to test again today.

bfn again this morning. I’m not hopeful for this month.

So I bought a pack of two cheapies, did this one at 1pm. Did another just there to make sure and it was stark negitive not even a squinter. This one came up even before the control line did so I wonder is it just a false. So disappointed

Oh no! What brand is that? It doesn't look like a false. They're usually colourless. Have you got any more? Was it the same sample of urine?

I don't have anymore unfortunately I just picked them up on a whim in the pharmacy. Suresign. Not same sample of urine and just one hour hold. Thanks so much for your reply

Ah that might explain it then! Please update us in the morning with FMU 😊 good luck!

Ohh looks promising. Good luck

Hey ladies. I'm 6dpo today. Not due on till Saturday 10th seems like such a long wait!
trying to hold off testing as long as possible.
told myself I would wait till missed period so as not to get too disheartened by all the negatives.

for sure though I ended up buying a bath of one step early tests on eBay earlier 😅😂

earliest they will be delivered is Monday when I will be 10 dpo so as long as I don't go out and buy any tests this weekend it looks like I will be forced to actually wait untill a reasonable day to start testing 😂

Bfn this morning with fmu. So disappointed 😔 on to the next cycle now

I'm sorry @Washingmachine22that positive looked so real. I had a bfn this morning too, period due in 5 days and I knew before with my both my previous pregnancies at this point so going to try and forget about this cycle and focus on the next one. I've driven myself crazy looking for a second line for days now and I'm so fed up with it 🙁

Aww no I’m sorry.

Af found me this morning so I’m out for this month.

I got mine too, fingers crossed for us both next month. I'm going to move over to the TTC 2025 thread so hopefully see you there 😊
