Yes I do this!Does anyone else contemplate doing a pregnancy test and then quickly goes and wees just so you have wasted your first days wee and feel like you can’t test until tomorrow? Then repeats the same thing again? Or just me
10dpo and time is dragginggggggggg
Same, usually get pains that day too which helps to differentiate
speak with your dr when you have the scan, i think they usually recommened 2 periods xHi everyone. Finding myself back on this thread after posting my BFP two weeks ago. I’ve had lots of bleeding, scan booked for Saturday, but I’m expecting the inevitable. The question now is when can we start TTC again? My app says I am ovulating now (if I weren’t pregnant) but will my periods be messed up and do I need to wait for them to start? Thank you
Thank you I really hope so xSounds promising though, fingers crossed for good news
Some people have a really quick surge, other peoples are longer or even twice! There’s so much variation between women and even between cycles.
That's so interesting to hear, my cycle this month was a lot shorter (more than a week) than usual. I've not had tests done before and I'm lucky to have a baby (who took a year of TTC) and we have been actively trying again for the last couple of months.
Not everyone can dtd every 2 days thoughMy bbt doesn’t drop every month but monitoring my bbt for the past few months confirms that I ovulate day 15-17 so I know to do dtd regularly from day13… as all advice says, if you’re dtd every 2 days then you will be covering your fertile days regardless so you could argue monitoring LH peaks and bbt aren’t essential
im happy my cycle was only 28 days this time. 
My theoretical red string wall:
That’s interesting. Does it track LH level too?
Ahh congratulations!! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Ah it only tracks OPKs as positive or negative so might not be detailed enough. I didn’t even realise apps could do that so I might be swung if someone suggests a better one
(((
So sorry
glad you're not going to be waiting around any longer but wish you had a better outcome
Thank you for your response- really helpfulWelcomeso the official advice is that anything that happens between ovulation and AF is the same whether you're pregnant or not and that symptoms don't typically develop until after a missed period. However, so many women have symptoms that are unusual for them and then find out they're pregnant so you know your body best. I think there is an element of being more aware of your cycle once you're TTC and noticing things you may have disregarded before, but I totally believe early symptoms are possible because so many women have experienced them.
The best time to take a test is first thing in the morning as first wee of the day is the most concentrated. I think the HCG levels double around every other day when pregnant so of course you're most likely to get a BFP if you wait longer - but who can wait?! Early tests like the First Response ones can be taken up to 6 days before a missed period, so 5 days before your period is due. However if you test 5 days in advance and get a BFN it doesn't mean you're not pregnant.
All in all, you're not out until AF shows so it's worth trying again tomorrow morning if you don't want to wait for AF to be late to test again.
Good luck
Yep, same time for both LH and BBT. LH at 10.30-11 and BBT as soon as I wake up.
Unfortunately no, my boss is pretty strict about booking days off with at least a month's notice. My OH can only take days off in an allocated period so we will be out this month. Just one of those things I guess
Nope! I’ve never done one before 🥹 Flo says to wait another 3 days so think I will do that jusy in case it’s just my cycle playing up..This sounds very promising
