***January 2020 Testing Thread***

Pineberry - most people don't implant until 9DPO (average). So a test at 7DPO just gives disappointment. I know, I tired at 8DPO the first month we started TTC lol. I can see your lines on the 11DPO test, can't wait to see your clear blue.

Dee - crossing my fingers for you.

Cycle day 6 here. Leading up to ovulation fun times this coming weekend. Let's hope we time DTD well this cycle and catch the egg!

Ahh yes, I do know this - I can see how my post was easy to misunderstand, I actually only meant that since the test at 7 DPO doesn't show an evap or faint line, implies that it's unlikely to be a bad batch and that the lines from 10 and 11 are probably not indents or anything, since then the one from 7 DPO would also have that

Thanks darling, I am so excited to test with the clearblue tomorrow! And for you, let the BD marathon begin!

How do you feel?, do you have cramping or any PMS type symptoms or do you have pregnancy type symptoms?

I'm only feeling mild abdominal pressure, a bit of twinging and pulling. Also feel a bit feverish. Don't feel pre-AF-y at all, which I hope is a good sign and continues to be that way!

they look great to me , it doesn't seem like it's getting lighter , the lines just look thinner. try not to stress yourself out , idk if you believe in God or not if so try praying to ease your mind a bit. i prayed for you and your baby so i hope everything goes great for you

Thunk you hun, that's so sweet of you. Best of luck to you. I hope you get that bfp very soon

 

[Laurabub84]

Still getting stupid evaps this morning but they are not any darker. Appear as soon as the dye clears. Stupid cheap tests. Feel like AF is coming but nothing yet, expected the latest by Saturday. 12/13dpo today so would be blazing by now if it was anything. I think I’m out this month ladies.

Good luck Pineberry, I'm really hoping for you, cant wait to see your tests!

How frustrating for you. I can see that without even clicking on your picture. I really hope it gets darker for you Dee.

 

[Laurabub84]

stacey, hmm really hard to say. I still think the 17th looks like the more likely O date, but even if it was the 18th, you still hit O-2 which is still great timing.

Here are the tests I've taken (both times the lines appeared within a minute). When I zoom in realllly closely on the bottom one, I can see slight pink colour, so it's a bit hard not to get excited right now. Will buy a clearblue during lunch today and use it with FMU tomorrow

Oh I see what you mean by a good batch of tests! I only ever get evap lines after the time frame or when the test dries. I've been putting them in the trash after the time frame so I'm not tempted to go back and check for a line! It's so hard to resist!

I don't remember testing like this when TTC in the past. Though I was lucky to get pregnant on my 3rd cycle with my first and 1st cycle with my second child. I guess this is the difference between TTCing in my mid 20s and now my early 30s. I seriously thought it would be just as easy this time around, but we are now onto cycle #4

CD 26 (AF is due in 6 days) & I am having dark brown spotting with a very stretchy consistency. Implantation bleeding? I took a FRER this morning & it was negative. I usually spot a few days before AF but it's always red. It has NEVER been brown. Ahhhhh FX!

Has anyone had IB & it be brown?

 

[KateH]

Question. This is my first cycle TTC, I'm a newbie at all of this and I got my BC taken out the last day of November last year started prenatals the next day. I ovulated the night of the 13th this month, possible early morning of the 14th it was around 12am (well thats when I got my solid smiley face on the clearblue digital test). I know I've heard from almost everyone it's highly unlike anything will happen this first cycle but.... when is ok to test!? I guess I'm 8 or 9dpo right now. My ive not been obsessed with looking for symptoms but Ive noticed the ones I've had are lower back cramps and some acne (which is usual for me before I start) and this morning when I woke up I felt very nauseous and have had it on and off all day, could just be something I ate last night very likely but I usually never have nausea even after eating bad food. Idk I dont want to get crazy over testing or get hopes up but I'm wondering what's going on!

 

[Bevziibubble]

@KateH Welcome to BabyandBump Good luck

 

[Pineberry]

@sn0wbunnie - From what I have read online, most implantation bleeds are actually supposed to be brown. So it could be that! Dont count yourself out yet, 6 days before AF is still really early just so test again in the next few days

@KateH - You could theoretically get a faint BFP at 9 DPO depending on when the bean implanted, but actually less than half of all tests are still negative at this point even if pregnant. The odds of getting an accurate result just get better from 9 DPO on, latest by 12 DPO you should definitely see a line if you did indeed conceive this cycle!

Hi everyone im new here so just trying to see how it works hope im writing this in the right place im currently ttc im on my 6th cycle ttc i had the mirena coil removed in june 2019 cycles were 27-28 days last 2 months 25 days i didnt think it would take me this long to concieve but hey here i am ive been going crazy with ovulation tests crazy symtom spotting crazy testing but this month i said no more i cant take it so i promised myself i will just let things flow im currently 9dpo due on sunday the only thing that i cant help but notice is no sore boobs this month (YET) and i get them religously for atleast a week last month it was from 2dpo onwards is this a sign goodluck to all in the 2ww its so stressfull i no x

 

[Pineberry]

@Leesa Welcome, and good luck for this cycle anything that is different from your usual non-pregnant cycles is likely to be a good sign, so if you usually get sore boobs but you dont this time, it could definitely mean something!!

Ladiesssss... I took another test this evening with a 2 hour hold, and despite the fact that my pee must have been pretty diluted, I got a line showing up within less than a minute, and it is the strongest yet since the last 2 days.

I dont wanna get too excited but who am I kidding, Im already over the moon and thinking of ways to tell my bf - he thinks we are already out for this cycle because when I had that crying breakdown on Monday, I told him I am definitely not pregnant because I had spotting



Testing with clearblues tomorrow morning but Ahhhhh I have a good feeling they will be positive too

 

[Deethehippy]

It's looking good Pineberry

 

[Leesa]

Thank you i hope its a good sign. Your test looks promising good luck fingers crosses for you x

 

[Hoping4numbr3]

Oooo exciting pineberry! Can't wait to see your test.

 

[Hoping4numbr3]

Leesa both this pregnancy and my last pregnancy the cycles I got my bfp's I did not have sore boobs either. Those cycles I had the least symptoms so it could be a good sign. Good luck!

 

[Lightning7]

@Pineberry Your tests are looking great! Can't wait to see the clearblue! Perhaps your spotting was some implantation bleeding!

@sn0wbunnie My IB with my son's pregnancy was brown, but only there when I wiped. Good luck!!

@KateH & @Leesa welcome and good luck!

 

[Leesa]

@Hoping4numbr3 ohh really thats promising! thank you when would you reccomend i test i am trying to hold out as long as possible this month ive done well upto now lol x

 

[Deethehippy]

I hate these tests now, still getting faint lines and ever so sl darker the stronger my pee, this is SMU..is it only me who can see it? Maybe I had some sort of brief chemical?? No more spotting and still waiting for AF.


EDIT : am going to use one of these tests with water and see what happens.
