April 2020 testing thread

[Kwipeh]

Hey ladies, how’s everyone doing in this pandemic period? Staying safe I hope? Much love to you all.

I’m back in the TWW and should officially be testing on the 16th which is when AF is due, according to my Femometer app. However I’ve been testing since 5dpo because I’m silly.

It’s all been BFNs. I was hoping to see even a faint line today since I’m 10dpo. Even used a clear blue 6 days early test. Thought I saw a squinter but most likely in my head.

Symptom spotting is frustrating too because in the past I’ve been so sure my symptoms meant pregnancy and boom, AF. In the past two years I’ve had a few chemicals and 2 miscarriages and my symptoms were not much different from how I’m feeling now, save for a few things here and there.

So I’m just going to have to wait until the 16th to see what happens. In the meantime I’ll keep POAS with my wondfos. It’s an addiction at this point. *facepalm*

Baby dust to all of us!

Well do another test today and it was a bfn, guessing the one the other day was just an indent :/ ... been a bit cranky and bloated , suppose to start in 2 days. Out of tests, and feeling like I’m out this month so will just wait for AF

Hay ladies me again. I'm so confused and hope dont mind me turning to you all.
So I had a 2 day temp drop on friday 9dpo and saturday 10dpo' and had some sharp stabbing pains that came and went very quickly but were quite sore in my right overy area on the evening of 9dpo' and again at 11dpo but my right overy area. I also had some mild period cramps which is exactly what happened on the day I got my BFP with my son.
My temp is remaining high' I'm now on cycle day 25 and 12 dpo. Took 2 IC tests this morning and BFN.
AF due tomorrow which is Wednesday or Thursday.
But the 2 tests I did were Easy@home 10 mlu and Clinical guard 25 mlu. Not even a hint of a line.
I'm so confused with my body right now.
I had very sore boobs from 5dpo and then by 9dpo they were not tender at all.
I've never ever had that happen b4.

With my daughter and my son I had sore boobs from 5 dpo that was my first sign with both. But they remained sore throughout the whole of the first and early second trimester. They didnt just stop hurting at 9dpo. That's what I find so weird about now.
I never get sore boobs b4 or during AF but I do get sore boobs when I ovulate for about 2 days and then it goes off.
But I've already ovulated on day 13 so it wudnt of been ovulation.
I've been so emotional and I feel so hot.

I had a blazing positive on Frer at 11DPO with my son and even with the IC tests I had a faint positive By 12 DPO but today's test were stark white negative so I know it's not pregnancy but what is going on.
I definitely ovulated when I did because I had a blazing postive OPK and had the cramps and sore boobs for 2 days. It was also confirmed by temps.

My mind is going into overdrive worrying about things like pre menopause and stuff like that.

Anyway I hope ure all ok. I need to catch up on the rest of the thread. I'm going to do that right now.

First time posting. I hope this is the right thread. I'm 12 DPO, day 27 of cycle, with aunt flo expected in 2 days. Had twinges in uterus on dpo 6-8. Breasts feel fuller, some discomfort in them. Yeast infection yesterday (read for some it was an indicator before pregnancy, but I know it could also be AF related). I see a little pink on this test, which is a taken apart FRER, but think I'm wanting it to be more pink than it is. This pic was taken after 10 min, but looked like this within 3-5 minutes of dipping it. What do you all think?

Hey ladies just wanted to pop in ... I was trying to wait until 12 dpo to test but of course couldn’t ... 10dpo today and I swear I see a little something but can’t capture it on camera :/ trying not to get too excited since we have been through 3 losses in the last 6 months but fingers crossed this is a bfp and it stays put!! Always thinking of all you ladies !! Happy Easter !

Hi hon hoping they darhen for you. Good luck sweety

Hi everyone. Just wanted to update. Af caught me early this morning. This is the latest I have ever been.

So sorry AF arrived I hope this cycle brings you a BFP

Hi all. Hope you don’t mind me joining this thread now. I’m 9 dpo today and feeling a tad discouraged with my BFN with FMU. I triggered on 4/1 and pretty sure O’d on 4/3. I’m feeling little twinges now and this morning woke up super early with a weird dream and extremely dry mouth. Not sure if this means anything or not but still holding out in my TWW.

Hi hon welcome

Goodluck hon. Sorry about the chemicals I have had 2 of those and a later Misscarige at almost 11 weeks and it's just awful.
Hopfully ure get ure definite BFP. Fingers crossed for you

Oh no I'm sorry hon. Why do tests do that. It's so cruel. I've noticed it with some IC tests in the past. Think tests like that shud be pulled it's not fair of womon to get all there hopes up for it to be a stupid indent line. So frustrating.
Hopfully AF stays away hon.

Anyway I hope I haven't missed anyone out.
Good luck Lisa and Dee and to all the other ladies.

Hope ure all staying as saine as possible during this lockdown.
Sending u all lots of hugs.
Hoping to see lots of BFPs.
Can I also say a big thank to @Bevziibubble for always being so supportive and so kind.

I can see that hon. Some will say its invalid because it's been taken apart but sometimes it's easier to take them apart to get a good photo.
I can definitely see that hon good luck.
I'm 12dpo as well and also due AF in a day or two.
I haven't done a First response but I've done some cheepie internet tests and BFN so I'm not testing no more now because I think by 12DPO there wud be a line of some kind.
Anyways good luck to you hon. Hope they darken for you

Thank you for the words of encouragement. We've been TTC since October, and the TWW is sometimes unbearable to the point where I'm grasping for signs. I know I'm not alone in this. I took it apart because the glare kept messing up the pic

 

[lisaalove]

Hey guys! Hope you dont mind the vent but I'm annoyed, I dont want to be. I want to be understanding, but I'm just annoyed. Got a dark opk earlier and itll probably be darkest tonight or tomorrow morning. So that means O is right around the corner. Well I told hubby that and he said well I dont really want you pregnant during quarantine. I'm just sad and disappointed and I dont know what to do right now. We've been ttc for almost a year and he asked me to wait for almost 4 years before that. I feel like I've been waiting for so long... I'm trying to be patient but I dont want to wait forever... I feel like I'm just getting pulled along now and hes making excuses. Sorry for the rant... I just want to be in the tww and dont see any point in stopping ttc right now.

I see a line! Fx it gets darker for you!

[Deethehippy]

I’m really sorry Lisa, I can imagine how frustrating that must be for you. Have you tried to explain to him that TTC can take a while and hopefully lockdown will be ended or ending when you might need medical appointments? I hope he come round and you can start soon.

Sugar - thank you for being so supportive of everyone yourself Without sounding pessimistic from what I know sore boobs after O is due to the rise in progesterone which tends to taper off around 8-9 dpo if you are not pregnant and sometimes come back a bit right before AF. I’ve got sore boobies right now but I often do at this stage..it’s if they stay sore or get sorer that I may take note. I really do hope you get a BFP soon though. You do hear about lots of ladies that get later positives after when AF would have been due and also ladies who get less symptoms on the month of their BFP so fingers crossed. I hate the TWW lol.

Since I took apart yesterday evening's test, this is 13 dpo FMU, photo has no filters. Photo taken at 3 minute mark. Does it look like an indent mark? Xxxxx

 

[Bevziibubble]

I see it. Does it have any colour?

 

[Aleen]

I see it. Does it have any colour?

It's still hard to tell if its a grey, or the faintest of pink. Yesterday and today's test came from the same box so I suppose it could be a bad batch

I took a clear blue non-digital and the ink danced along the test line, but after settling, was so faint my eyes could be playing tricks.

 

[Deethehippy]

Looks like a BFP to me, I hope they get darker each day

 

[Bevziibubble]

Fingers crossed for you

 

[Aleen]

Thanks ladies! Every time I pee I'm checking for pink tinges from aunt Flo arriving, and my breasts get more sensitive every few hours. If I don't have anything tomorrow morning I'll post another test. Thinking about getting a Clear Blue digital and trying the equate version of a line test to rule out an indent line!

 

[Deethehippy]

Digital's are known for not showing a positive result early on but you could give one a go..good luck to you and looking forward to seeing any further tests (I love looking at tests lol)
