I'm also 5dpo today. I plan testing at 10dpo on Friday.

How are you doing, @MumOf3amazingkids?

Tested today and definitely negative! I definitely feel a bit off and reading into every little thing (I'm tired despite feeling well, hayfever symptoms off the chart, cold, cramps on and off last couple of days). Could all be wishful thinking/paying more attention than usual to how I'm feeling! Going to try to hold off testing till 11/04, unless period arrives by then!

I also tested with FMU today and definitely negative🥺 but I'm still holding on to hope as I had my last bfp at 12dpo and it was a vvfl. Wow. 11/04, how many dpo will you be by then? Seems your cycle is quite long. Mine is avwragely 26 - 29 days so Tuesday is the last day to test for me.

I haven't had any noticeable symptom though. It's possible your Hcg levels are still too low to detect. Fingers crossed. I hope that second line shows for you! 🙏

Thank you! Hope you get a positive too!

This is my first cycle after having coil removed. Assumed a 28 cycle but could well be shorter. I measured temperature and took note of physical symptoms which pointed to me ovulating very early in the cycle (around day 9!) It's entirely possible my dates are well off! Keeping everything crossed, but trying to be realistic.

I think I'll be 16/17dpo on 11th.

Will probably get some proper ovulation tests for next cycle, unless I've been really lucky!!

ShivWesker · 05/04/2026 00:20

Defo out. No more tests either, which is probably a good thing at this point. Currently 12dpo. Anybody got any updates?

Edit: Top test was 10dpo, bottom 11dpo.

@ShivWesker Sorry to hear this! It's the most frustrating thing isn't it! Emotional rollercoaster.

I last tested on Friday which "I think" was 10DPO and got a BFN. Haven't tested since as only have 1 test left. Will test tomorrow but assuming I'm out too as have no symptoms and my gut is saying I'm definitely not pregnant.

Glittertint · 05/04/2026 08:45

Hi! Hope I can join! I’m 9dpo, TTC my second. I had a chemical pregnancy 2 cycles ago so trying to not test early as found it hard mentally to lose it and then try again.

Really trying to not symptom spot but sore boobs since 7dpo, sneezing a lot and generally more tired than usual. My BBT is running along the usually numbers and I tend to drop at 11-13dpo if AF comes so waiting to see if that happens!

the urge to order some tests is really hard!!!

LizzieM98 · 05/04/2026 10:21

Can we see the line??

DmcinT · 05/04/2026 13:04

@ShivWesker ah sorry it’s so bloody hard each cycle, even though u know ur not out until af appears ❤️

I see a line here @LizzieM98 how many dpo are u?

I am only 4 dpo and time is slooooowly ticking by!! I’ve lots of twinges, aches and pains but obvs just all progesterone at this stage either way!

HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy · 05/04/2026 14:00

Hi! Moving over from the other thread.

I’ve been TTC DC#3 since December. I have PCOS so have very long cycles, my last one was 65 days!

Currently on CD 30 and might have ovulated yesterday. Didnt get a peak on my LH tests, had 3 days of raised levels, of about 0.6 but no postive test. Not sure I ovulated at all really. But LH levels have dropped back down today, so my app is counting today as 1dpo! So I will keep hoping that I have ovulated. Also going to continue dtd every other day to cover all bases!

Anyone else had trouble finding their peak?

LizzieM98 · 05/04/2026 14:17

@DmcinTi am 14 dpo 😊

MumOf3amazingkids · 05/04/2026 14:42

@TTCFTM2026 Wow. CD9 is quite early. I got my LH peak on CD16. I thought shorter follicular phases automatically meant shorter luteal phases?

MumOf3amazingkids · 05/04/2026 14:43

@LizzieM98 I see a line when I squint ☺️. Tentative congratulations! Was it FMU, are you planning to test with a digital? Keep us updated. ☺️

LizzieM98 · 05/04/2026 14:44

@MumOf3amazingkidsit was yeah, I am planning to tomorrow morning! Exciting times xx

It's possible your body tried ovulating but didn't quite get there. I think you should keep testing, who knows, you may get a higher reading in a few days.

Yes, I am a bit concerned that this is most likely scenario! Will definitely keep testing and dtd.
If I didn’t ovulate do you reckon it would be another 2 weeks until my body would try again or sooner? It’s hard to find the time to dtd with 2 poor sleepers but don’t want to miss it 😬

From your username I guess you have 3? How do you find it? Im a bit nervous at the thought of going from 2 to 3 but also excited!

Creepyoctopus · 05/04/2026 21:13

How’s everyone getting on I think I may had possibly hit peak but only reading 0.97 on Premom I don’t want to over do dtd as the 2 times we have got pregnant we only dtd once unsure if it’s a coincidence but we are trying to stick to not doing it too much

Also jumping on this thread as we are officially TTC our first after coming back from our honeymoon! We’ve decided not to tell anyone so it’s nice being able to discuss it, I know I’ll end up talking my husbands ear off about it otherwise! 😅

HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy · 05/04/2026 23:20

@Creepyoctopus I would definitely read that as peak, or peaking overnight and would expect it to drop by tomorrow. The exact number also depends how long you hold your wee for/ how hydrated you are/ what angle you took the picture of the test at etc- so being only 0.03 off “positive” I would read as positive and get dtd!

LizzieM98 · 06/04/2026 14:56

How reliable are clear blue? This came up in the 1 min window fmu

HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy · 06/04/2026 16:47

I can see a line @LizzieM98 but it seems very faint for 15 dpo with FMU. Did you track ovulation? Could you have ovulated later?
I don’t think it’s a evap as it appeared too fast so that’s good! Maybe you just implanted late so are a few days behind?

LizzieM98 · 06/04/2026 17:04

@HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy if going by the Premom app I ovulated on the 22nd and I only dtd once the day before so it must be around about that time

1sttimemummn · 06/04/2026 17:09

Hi Everyone! Hope you’re ok and don’t mind me joining. I’m currently 6dpo and driving myself crazy waiting to test haha. I currently have two boys (sorry havnt ch aged mane on here) and TTC my third. Had a miscarriage at 6 weeks end of last year. I think last cycle I spent about £100 on tests 😂😭 xxxx

HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy · 06/04/2026 20:08

It probably is just late implantation @LizzieM98 I think the clear blue tests are notoriously poor for line progression anyway! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean for you 🤞
