9dpo... Is that a line?
I had a faint positive at 7dpo but then had negative yesterday. This is this afternoons after only holding wee for 2 and a half hours because I'm impatient. Am I imagining things because I'm hopeful?

Excuse the fact iv taken the test to bits, I wanted to check the line I think I'm seeing had some colour to it

I see it!!

Hey guys!
This may be kind of lengthy, so hubby and I weren't planning on trying yet but we talked and agreed we'd try this month sooooo FX. If not we wont be trying for the next three months so please keep fingers and toes crossed for me. This is my first cycle back after loosing twins in november and I'm really hoping for a sticky bean!
Anyways with all that said I'll be testing on the 12th but who knows if I will actually have the willpower to wait that long. Itll probably be more like the 9th
Ahhhh I'm trying not to get too excited but I really want this to work.
Good luck everyone, I hope we all get our BFPs!!!

Good luck!! Also, is Love your last name?? It's my last name too!

 

[lisaalove]

Thanks @Bevziibubble !

&& @Tonka106 no it's not, it's a pseudonym I always wished my last name was love! You're lucky!

Is anyone using one step test strips and getting constant faint pink positives?

I'm not at the minute but used them last month and never had a line at all on them.
I've just ordered some more in the hope I start showing on them in the next few days xx

No I haven't used those, I use the easy at home brand. Fx that those pink lines get darker.

 

[Lightning7]

@Poas addict I haven't used One Step before however I have some as well as my FRs for this month so I will let you know in a few days!

Katy78 I'm sorry AF came for you

Yes theres a line for sure on that dismantled test @JessdueJan ! Fx its your BFP!

@lisaalove sorry for your loss I hope you get to try this month! I'll add you in for the 12th!

@Tonka106 good luck! I'll add you in first post.

So I've done my standard MIA for the weekend and it's Monday here so I'm back

I LOVE weekends in the TWW because we are always busy so they go so fast that I barely have time to think about TTC then Monday rolls around and I'm back on here lol, so I'm 6dpo today, expecting AF on Weds if the usual happens, but I'm reeeeally hoping that pregnant or not AF won't show until at least Friday to show my LP is lengthening!

I am feeling really positive about this month suddenly even though I wasn't at all positive this time last week when I hadn't even ovulated yet! No idea why it's changed as it's too early for symptoms!

My 17mo ds has started weaning himself from breastfeeding, he had dropped down to only 1 evening feed for the last couple of months, but in the last week he's only accepted a feed about every 3rd evening. I wasn't expecting that to happen so soon but I'm feeling ok with it as I do feel like perhaps it will help my TTC odds, plus I've been worried that if I get sore nipples as I did with DS pregnancy from early on, weaning him suddenly was gonna be hard on him, so I'm pleased he is making the decision for himself.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

I’ve tested Yesterday couldn’t really see anything. However have woke up this morning and think my chart has gone triphasic?. What do you guys think? Should I retest today??? Arghhhh!!! xx

 

[JessdueJan]

11dpo with a £1 shop first Vue test. This is smu after only about a 3 hour hold... Should the line be darker than this at this stage? xx

That looks like a good line

 

[JessdueJan]

That looks like a good line

Thankyou! I wasn't this anxious with my last 3 but I'm also sure I never got a bfp so early at 7dpo, so now I'm worrying that the earliness of it isn't a good sign and am frantically testing morning and night every day

 

[Bevziibubble]

It can be so worrying at the beginning. I think your line looks great though

 

[Joannaxoxo]

Jess - I can see your line, your still early at 11dpo, if it were me, I'd take a break from testing for a couple days and try again around 13/14dpo. Good luck!

Enya - what is a triphasic chart? I've never seen mine do that.

Lightening - I might not be testing until Feb 11th now (I'm trying not to test before 12dpo). It seems I ovulated at 14dpo, not 11 or 12 which is what Fertility Friend originally had me at. It's been a strange month for me too with the chart. Lets hope that is a good sign! I'm glad your happy with your son weaning naturally... I found with my second child that my breasts never hurt as badly as they did with my 1st child... I think my nipples were tougher and already stretched out so they didn't feel the pain nearly as much.

Hi ladies,
This might be a daft question but how is the most accurate way to work out due date. I know when we DtD because it was literally only once this month due to illness and I know it was 3 days before ovulation. Do I take 40 weeks from DtD or from ovulation or from niether?
Thanks xx

Ive only ever worked it out from the first day of my last period and it's been right every time so far. I'm on baby 11 (6 losses, 4 rainbows) xx

Not even an evap line ? It's frustrating because it's not getting any darker but they are as wide as the control line and pink but it's the same past few days I know I'm early but there all the same , ordered some clear blue digitals and have one frer left so fx
