    I want to test so badly but i cant even hold my pee for any length of time and it’s clear because my thirst is crazy so i drank a lot. Lol
    I guess I’ve waited this long, might as well wait until the morning like I’ve planned. Just makes me feel nervous to test too.

    I know right! If they were evaps I will never want to buy FRER again. Absolutely shocking!
    I am not going to test again till my period is due which at earliest would be Monday.
    I am having an absolute roller coaster of a cycle. Last couple of days I've felt off. I feel asleep on the couch at 9pm, so unlike me. I'm a night owl. Tonight I wiped and had the tiniest fleck of brown cm. I'm feeling sick and my boobs are tingly. I personally think it is my body playing tricks on me.
    I will be grateful when AF shows so I can move on to hopefully a fresh, normal cycle.

    @RedRose19 thats definetly a positive opk but I’m not sure how fertility works whilst breastfeeding. Hope you get the result you want

    @NightFlower keeping it all crossed for you hun

    @HalfricanMa really hope you’re both right and you get a lovely bfp when you test together.

    @WantingababyF really hope you still have a shot this cycle

    Afm, tested this morning 9dpo and bfn. Feeling very out :-(

    So much to catch up on! The board moved quick the last couple of days!

    @josephine3 The egg thing is called the kegg fertility tracker. Over time it learns your body to help you accurately predict your fertile window. Personally, I can do that with out this thing, but I'll do anything for my love.

    @WantingababyF I am soooo confused and angry for you. Had I gotten lines like yours I would have 100% thought BFP. I cannot believe that those may have just been evaps. That's horrendous! I hope hope hope you still get a BFP this cycle. I'm sooooo sorry for the test trickery. That makes me so angry. I swear they changed the tests so we buy more of them. It makes me never want to buy one of them again on principle.

    @HalfricanMa I am dying for you to test! Is your chart still looking good like it was a few days ago?

    @littlewitch I'm so sorry. I hope you and your husband can work things out. We are always here for you if you need to talk <3

    @NightFlower I am still hopeful for you, but I understand where you are coming from. The egg does live for 24 hours after ovulation, so I'm still hoping y'all managed to catch it.

    @RedRose19 That OPK looks positive to me! Welcome to the thread! But remember it is possible to get a surge and not ovulate, so it's going to be a waiting game for sure.

    @Laurabub84 I'm so sorry you and your family have been so sick. You may want to check your vitamin D levels. Vitamin D is crucial for our immune systems, and when mine is low I find myself getting sick a lot. I'm also sorry you are feeling out. I am still hoping for you!

    @Suggerhoney I'm glad to hear you are doing okay and are taking it a little easy this cycle. We all need breaks sometimes. I hope the B vitamins and baby aspirin help! I've never tried baby aspirin. I have a really sensitive stomach, and aspirin and NSAIDs tear my stomach up. But I have heard really good things about it! I hope it works for you <3

    Sorry for anyone I missed!

    AFM, I'm 11 dpo and got a BFN this morning. But my temp is higher than it has ever been! I have never had a chart like this in my life. Is quadphasic a thing???? So I'm getting negatives, but my temps are through the roof.
    My boobs are a little tender
    I have been really emotional. I cried a lot yesterday and felt really down. But I feel better today.
    I've been having some mild nausea here and there, but nothing crazy.

    Here is my beautiful chart that I may have to frame lol

    Thank you @Laurabub84 and @Pink.Rose !
    sorry to hear bfns this morning! I was looking forward to you ladies’ tests. Still early yet so hopefully a bfp in the coming days.
    @S_Dowd that chart looks great!
    I havent tested yet because dh is still asleep. It’s killing me to wait longer lol. I woke to a sore throat today. Idk that it means diddly squat, but im hopeful with my other symptoms. My chart is very ambiguous. I am happy though to be at 11 days in lp. I hate when af arrives at like 7 days. I will hop on to share how the testing goes.

    Oh I'm on pins and needles! I am praying you get your BFP! Your chart still looks really good! Your temps have stayed up since your luteal phase dip, and I'm glad you are having a longer LP this month. Oh I hope it's good news! Oh and happy birthday!!!

    Happy birthday @HalfricanMa and I hope you're about to get two pink lines for your birthday. Your chart still looks fantastic!

    @S_Dowd that chart is something else too! If that second dip was implantation then I would hope to see a BFP tomorrow. Sorry you had a bfn today

    @Laurabub84 I hope you're feeling better. Boo to the bfn but 9dpo is still early.

    @RedRose19 how wild would that be to catch the first egg postpartum when you've needed fertility treatments before.
    My first two were 17 months (2 days shy, and that was with my second being a 42 weeker) and I wished for the same again but ended up with a 2y9m gap the second time due to loss and a 2y7m gap the third time (twins though so I was glad for it that time) and it's going to be more than a 5year gap this time which is not what I wanted at all

    @Suggerhoney I hope the relaxes approach is helping you destress. :hugs:

    First timer here, and not a lot of women in my life who can speak to pregnancy.

    I'm two days late currently. And I'm just trying to figure this out first, I'm so busy I haven't had time to get a test, and I just started to wonder about it the other day.

    I ovulated around March 1, got hit by exhaustion a week later, and a day of bad headaches shortly after, felt like I ran a marathon, but my energy levels have gone up and down a lot since then. The one thing I'm not sure about is since a week before my period was due I started to have bad constipation, my stomach was a little higher than normal and my massage therapist fixed that, and lots of gas, and gurgles. Sometimes while working out or doing core I get what feels like a sitch but in my whole stomach abdomen area, not one side like I get when I run. My tummy just feels upset most of the time or I have extremely sore abs all day, and some cramps here and there. Large breasts, sore, felt a little better today, but still big. I think I gained a half cup. A little darker on one, but not too bad.

    Any thoughts, comforting words...? I was a high level athlete, so I'm hyper sensitive to my body, sometimes too much. Anybody else gone through similar things?

    Help!

    Congratulations @HalfricanMa!!! Wonderful news!

    Just got back from the fertility specialist, I have 4 follicles on the left, 2 mature, one is at 17 and the other at 19. We're doing our trigger shot on Saturday, Sunday is Hubby's birthday, and Monday is our IUI! Praying for a great birthday gift for DH! But this means I won't be testing until April 3rd. Still reading and following along all your journeys to baby! Xo

    @CC777CC if you’re late hun the only way you can know for sure is to get yourself a test or book in with your gp so they can do a test for you. Good luck. Hope you get the result you want.

    @HalfricanMa omg!! I’m so pleased for you hun. Congratulations. What a perfect birthday surprise. No doubting those beauties

    @thencomesbebe best of luck to you. Hope this will be it for you
