*** March 2019 (testing thread) *** (58 testers, 21 BFP's so far)

I’m feeling really anxious and sad today because my frer is much lighter, very faint, today. I just want this baby to stick so badly

Oh, no @MissDoc!

Hoping it's just because it's FMU and a more diluted sample. Crossing my fingers your lines get darker!

The initial days with very faint lines, my lines were always stronger with SMU or evening tests and nearly invisible with FMU..

Speaking of morning samples. Has anyone noticed that if they have a lot of potatoes for dinner their FMU and SMU are really good, dark samples?

I looked into it and found this:
"A natural anti diuretic is a baked potato, as long as it isn't slathered with butter. Potatoes are loaded with potassium, which is an electrolyte, so it aids in preventing dehydration."

Prevents dehydration and helps with early testing? Sounds like a win-win ;)

This cycle I'm waiting to test until 13 DPO and drinking lots of water, hoping it helps.

So,today I was feeling a little bit strange today. For the last couple of days I've been noticing that I was peeing a lot and stuff, woke up couple of times during the night to pee.
Also, I was having a bad temper, getting angry at the simplest things.
Updates on the scans Ive been taking, where doc said I had a huge cyst: he told me it was almost impossible to be pregnant this month. And also to expect AF much latter as The clomid had messed up my cycle.
Ok, fast forward to today.
Was feeling dizzy, nauseous and tired. Nipples and breast tender. So I took a test...surprise surprise...:bfp:
Im so shocked and DH is too.
Will test again on planned date on 10th.

Positive that looks great to me!! You’re doing everything you can.

Tesh, I definitely don’t want to contribute to false hope but I do see a very very faint vertical line. So I’m going to hold a little hope for you!


I’m feeling really anxious and sad today because my frer is much lighter, very faint, today. I just want this baby to stick so badly but this frer makes me think it’s not. Please send vibes of sanity. I’ll be home from work in the earlyish afternoon today and I’ll test again. I just feel so distressed. Last nights frer showed great progression and now so faint, even compared to yesterday morning or 9dpo.

Fingers crossed ..... sending hugs
 
Okay so, a little update from me...

At around 3 dpo I started feeling under the weather but didn’t think much of it as my brother is staying with us and he had just had something similar. Nothing extreme just a bit foggy headed and fatigued. That’s continued up to today (10 dpo) but gotten worse and I’m now experiencing dizziness with it when I stand up. I have also been taking Norethisterone since 3 dpo (same as past 3 months) for 7 days as prescribed by my consultant as I have a lot of pre AF spotting, though this month was my first time taking it 3 x daily instead of 2. So I’m not sure if the symptoms I’m having are due to the medication, my illness or potentially early preg symptoms? Yesterday was my last day of the Norethisterone so I guess time will tell and I’m planning to test with frer on Friday at 12dpo. However, I’m at home sick today due to my exhaustion and general feeling ( I got sent home yesterday afternoon too) and just got up off the sofa to make some lunch. I felt a little (nothing crazy) pinch down low, then my vision started going, I got very hot and felt like I was going to be sick. Sat back down and it passed. I’ve also been having gentle af like cramps since about 2/3 dpo which isn’t unusual for me and they have picked up today in intensity. So not really sure what’s going on! If I have another episode like earlier I may take a test tonight as honestly it was a bit scary and I’d want to rule out pregnancy before going to a doctor.

Sorry for the long post! Just needed to get all of this out somewhere.

Congratulations on all the bfps so far and GL to everyone!
Hope you feel better soon and sending baby dust for the test.

Afternoon ladies. So as some might have read my crazy cycle post i decided to do another preg test this week incase the first time I thought I ovulated actually did happen. So here’s my test I did a ov test which came back quite strong. Now I need your eyes ladies on the preg test because sometimes I’m seeing a squinter but then it goes next time. Be honest because I’m just ruling out “1st time” ovulation lol. BF0B5D4C-EE92-4B07-8500-93B0E8BF6AAC.jpeg

Afm caved this morning and did my sensitive test (used this at 10dpo with my son and got a super strong positive.

Bfn. Also still bfn on the cheapies.

I’m out ladies. I know when AF is coming for sure and can feel the onset of it. Also have had really low temps. I’m ready and amped to get going with the next cycle now! AF should be here this Friday/Saturday.

My fmu samples were rubbish also had a stronger line in the afternoon. I’m keeping everything crossed for you lovely. I had 4 early losses in a row so I understand the anxiety of watching your test progressions

Thanks so much for sharing! I have been googling this exact same thing as I’ve got it into my head that my symptoms will or should be the same. I feel much better know it can differ.

Ttc after having my son so over 3 years since I’ve started to be more aware of my body etc.

I agree about the fmu being more diluted, fmu for me has never really given me a strong line. I think you will have to keep testing for now and keep an eye on that line. Praying for your little bean hun x
 
I thought I saw something and also I still have no symptoms this time so far which I’m trying not to worry about as someone else said every time is different. I usually have sore boobs every other time. Fingers crossed for you. Xx

Thanks lovey x

I have gotten faint evap lines in these when ttc my ds, and there are no progression on the ic’s so it’s most prob an evap
 
Good morning ladies! I hope everyone is doing well!

Today marks 7dpo for me symptoms include: cramping (pretty much constant since ovulation but milder than they were during the big O), sore nipples, tired, waves of heartburn over the last couple days, and cervix is high and closed, body feels kind of achy. My hpts were supposed to be delivered today, but Amazon decided to ship them out today instead of Monday, so it looks like I will be holding off on testing with a FRER until at least Friday. Although Saturday would be better since that will be 10dpo10pt. At the moment, I am testing with my IC's to make sure trigger shot is out and so far all have been negatives, so I am hopeful that if I start to get a line on them that they will be the real deal.

Anyone in the TWW right now, how many DPO are you and what kind of symptoms are you having today?

With my dd I used ic and they started showing very early but like yours there was hardly any progression so I got clear blue digital after a week and got a definite pregnant.

I am lovely. I could be 8dpo or 3 dpo lol body wanted to test me this month with ovulation symptoms. Today I’m still aching around the ovarys both sides, bloated to the point I look pregnant. Mood swings really really bad. And I just want junk food all the time
