1 DPO anyone else?

[bump.on.brain]

Thanks bump. Af isnt due till.the 25th
I dont kmow what to think im feeling pretty normal to be honest

Me too! I had a lot of cramping up to about 5dpo but that's totally disappeared now so other than a cold I feel fine! AF is the 26th for me... it's the not knowing I'm really not good with!

I'm due AF the 24th. Hopefully it doesn't show for any of us. We've had quite a bit of snowfall over the week so we're going to take the kids sledging today we love the snow! Them I'm working sun-wed so my hope is that unless there's any major symptoms I'm not testing unless im late.

Are you ladies keeping busy over the weekend?

Ive got to take my 3 to the dentist this morning i have got an extreme irrational fear so my nerves are going to be in tatters
I did a one step test this morning massive bfn
My cp is so high cant hardly reach it soft and tight closed zero cm
Ive got sharp stab like pains in the sides of by boobs at the top
And sort of very dull crampy feelings but all thos could be totally normal
I hate them inyernet cheapies i think i wanna get a frer and test on that

 

[xarlenex]

Try hold out a few more days for the frer! Unless money isn't an option of course. If you get a negative and your like me your likely to tell yourself it's too early and want to test again the next day with one. These two weeks really are torture for us!

Good luck with your trip to the dentist!

 

[noodles13]

These two weeks are bloody horrendous
Ive still got some ICs left maybe ill pass the tine with them till AF is due and if she doesnt arrive then ill buy a frer

 

[bump.on.brain]

I had a frer in the cupboard so I couldn't resist again this morning as I had another very very very faint one step. There actually was a faint but visible second line on the frer at 3 minutes so I started to get really excited but then it faded as time went on and is only visible held up to light and squinting now! So not sure what to think, but it's definitely not going to help my POAS addiction!

 

[bump.on.brain]

I've got lots of cramps in my abdo too this morning Noodles, and the very occasional sharp pains in my boobs. Cp is still really low but lots of cm. Not sure what's normal for me cm wise!

Enjoy sledging Arlene that sounds amazing!!

 

[noodles13]

Yeah i kept getting sharp stabs in the sides of my boobs
5 days until predicted period ..... i dont actually feel different i feel completely fine.
Going to have a look a 4 bed house tomorrow im hoping its nice and the woman likes mine too so we can do an exchange

 

[noodles13]

I now did another one step IC
There is a super vvv faint second line....
After all the dye had settled. It says to check after 5-10 mins
I can actually see it?
Im Gonna do another one tonight and again in the morning haha

 

[xarlenex]

Oh good! Does it show in a picture!? I had sharp, almost burning type of pain in a very specific area just at my pubic line almost at 5dpo,it really made me feel hopeful because I don't recall ever feeling anything like that before. Happened on and off for an hour or so and since then I've felt normal. It's hard to know what's "normal" as such for me after ovulation before I've had the mirena for so long.

Sledging was great fun! Did you manage the dentist trip okay noodles? Good luck with the house xx

 

[noodles13]

Yeah dentist went ok thanks
I tried to upload a piccy on here but it wouldnt let me for some reason

 

[bump.on.brain]

Ahh good luck Noodles, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! I really hope we all get our BFP's!

I'm feeling very confused after my disappearing frer line this morning. Made the mistake of getting excited enough to tell DH but now worrying that I got his hopes up too and it was a false alarm. This is torture!

 

[noodles13]

Now did another internet cheapie and no line at all?!?!
What the hell
I wonder if p tests should warn people not to test until AF is late even if its a sensitive test
It messes with your head

It may well just be because its so early still and more dilute urine this time. I agree totally that it messes with your head though. I wish I hadn't started testing early but now that I have this cycle and have seen lines it's harder to stop somehow. are you going to test again tomorrow morning?

 

[noodles13]

Yep ill test as soon as i wake up FMU
Its horrible thinking you see something then the next is bfn
If im not preg this month im gonna throw myself into the whole moving house thing and not even think about it
I wonder if the more we stress and obsess the harder it is?

 

[xarlenex]

There's alot out there to support the theory that stressing about it delays it. I know for my DD I'd been trying 9 cycles when it happened while we were occupied planning our wedding because we'd just got engaged that month. It was the first month it hadn't consumed my every thought. DS I was young and stupid and thought I knew my body, I didn't and fell pregnant at 17.
You also often here of people who'd almost "given up" were waiting fertility specialist appointments and it happens. I guess it could also be a total coincidence though. I hope yous see something tomorrow! I was considering testing tomorrow, I'd be 12dpo,but I've read so much about these internet cheapies that even if it were negative I'd probably still think I could be because the test is wrong.. so as it stands I'm saying no. I'll see how I feel in the morning xx

 

[bump.on.brain]

Good luck to you both! My plan is to test again tomorrow and Monday morning and if it hasn't got any darker by then I know this test was nothing. I'll then leave it and wait for AF. And definitely try not to test early next month.

I think part of the reason I find it hard not to obsess is because I start living like I'm pregnant in the TWW (e.g didn't have a drink on my brothers birthday) so it's constantly at the front of my mind. What do you all do? Do you stop alcohol, cut back on caffeine etc or live as normal until you get a BFP?

 

[noodles13]

I dont drink alcohol mainly because ive got 3 kids and never have the time lol but yeah i think i sort of do a bit too
I went back and looked at the second IC and there is defo something proper faint on that one too ans i mean so faint you have to actually study it to even catch a glimpse
I feel like i am going to get a bfp
Cant explain it but just feel like i will? If im wrong it was just my mind playing tricks on me
Bump i really hope you do get your bfp
And all you guys on here lets all get them at the same time
I got pregnant with my eldest after missing my depo by 3 days
My second i got pregnant whilst on cerezette
And my bubba we tcc and 2 weeks later had his bfp
My friends like to joke that i am the most fertile person theyve ever met
I got pregnant at 17 the first ever time i had sex but i had an abortion because of the situation it was hard but i know it was the best decision back then

 

[xarlenex]

Bump, I used to do that, I used to be so careful in the 2ww, but I became to realise that it was controlling our lives too much. So we agreed this time around we wouldn't have the odd glass of wine through the week, or couple on a Friday simply because there's no need, but if we have a party, organised night out we continue as normal. Like today I went sledging, ttc to conceive DD I wouldn't have dared done anything like that, would have convinced myself it would dislodge something but I'm determined not to let it control us this time.

 

[xarlenex]

These are just some of the terrible reviews for the one step pregnancy tests I have, so I'll definitely be investing in a different kind I think.
