CongratulationsOK so after my issue with the blue dye sainsburys test 2 days ago I bought a FR test via amazon. Its just come and I've used it so middle of the day, only peed about 2hr ago and this is the day AF is due and there is definitely two lines! Checked it after 3 mins, I could vomit I feel so nervous
Fingers crossed for youCurrently going through the exact same thing. 13dpo, bfn this morning but had sharp cramps yesterday and a tiny bit of spotting this morning
what did you test with this morning?
looks positive! No idea about the brand but if I were you I’d be running to big Tesco to get a digital one
Hi and welcome! Your honeymoon will be fab I’m sureHi, just popping my head in to let some of the neuroticism out if that’s ok
Growing up I always knew I wanted kids and ideally wanted them by the time I was 28 - well I’m a few years past that now and only just married so have let go of the ideas of being in my late 40s when the kids pack off for uni etc.
OH and I have booked a honeymoon for early spring to a place that has active Zika cases and I have a major event in early June that is not pregnancy compatible (due to the training, effort of the event itself, and selfishly due to my goals for it). So we’re thinking let’s start trying around July time (as this would be outside of the window for Zika to be a risk I believe) but my concerns are that it would then take some time to conceive at this point.
I am not going to lie, sex isn’t high on my priority list and I struggle with my drive so I feel like I need to be aware of what other things I can do to maximise our chances - nothing to do with my husband, just never really been into it(I think I’m probably asexual tbh). Other than stopping contraception, do you do anything else?! I feel like a kid asking but honestly, when you’re not that fussed with getting it on you tend not to read into these things
I’d want to stop any contraception a couple of months before trying just so it’s out of your system. I’m similar to you, my sex drive isn’t particularly high, not great for baby making! Have you tracked your periods? You can download an app and then that can give you a window for ovulation. They aren’t always super accurate though, so testing might be best for you. I’ve got pre mom and ovulation tests to go with it.
Yeah, I can clearly see the + but then I googled it and seems some people don't recommend them?
hey, I got mine around the same time last night too lol!
Thank you
🤍
It’s a temperature sensor that you wear overnight. You can get one that you insert vaginally or one that you can wear on your wrist/in your bra which is the one I use. Then you link it to their app which you have to pay for on a subscription basis and it does your chart for you and confirms your ovulation. I use it because my son still wakes in the night so it would be hard to track my BBT manually, OvuSense just need 6 hours total sleep recorded so is better suited if you have broken sleep. I also chose OvuSense over the Ava bracelet as OvuSense actually confirms the day you ovulate and their support is good - both are pricey though.
If you only did it an hour later your urine will be more diluted! Can you do a frer in the morning? Xx
I didn’t even know it was a thing!I think I’ve pulled every pregnancy test I’ve ever done apart!looks promising! Keep us updated

Yeah that was what I was thinking. I'm gonna buy a frer tomorrow as I don't have any in so will see what that says!
To be honest I’m not sure how accurate they are.. luckily my bathroom has a very bright light so think things are ok there. With my peak, I knew it was straight away as the line was darker than the control line which I don’t normally see! I think judging colour is fine, that’s what the app is doing too. I say take it automatically, which normally is fine! It’s a minefield isn’t it!
I’m crazy.Definitely! The Natural Cycles app would say that's a 'very high fertility' day
Are many of you also in the TWW? Hope you're all doing okay.
