Clearblue digital errored on me. Guess I'm starting tomorrow. My wondfo was pretty light, as expected. This wait is just as stressful as the TWW. I find it even more stressful right now because I'm trying hard to do LE diet, get attempts in, etc. After O, there's nothing to do except wait.
Funny story. Tell me if you've ever had this thought.
I picked up a chicken sandwhich yesterday at arby's while traveling and as I was exiting I held the door for a couple with 5 boys, about 7 & under. My first thought...i need to give her this group's info.
Thanks, it sounds like E4D can vary within the same cycle from 72-96. Does anyone know if there are reasons to try for 72 instead of 96? I imagine 96 cuts the odds of conception quite a bit but sways harder pink.
I'm still trying to get access to my private forum, not sure what the delay is but I'll keep trying.
Well this morning I woke up and had to pee soooooo badly. I took a CB digital pregnancy text and it said Not Pregnant. They say to use FMU but would it affect it if my urine was seriously diluted? It was seriously one of the biggest pees I’ve had in a long time. I am probably clutching at straws. 14 dpo...
I will probably go buy more FRER.
CB digitals require some of the highest HCG on the HPT market. I think it's like 50miu? Say your first test was a positive at like 20miu, which I think FRERs tend to be 20-25, adequate doubling to 50 would be 3 to 4 days after that first one! So awhile! I'd stick with the pink line tests!Quote:

From what I've read most sperm will only live up to 72 hours so I think you're better "covered" with a viable attempt with that version. With 96 hours there's more likelihood that you'll end up with 2 badly timed attempts.Quote:

In addition to what TP said my FMU tests are always a LOT lighter than SMU or TMU (or really any test done after a couple hour hold). I've seen huge differences between a FMU test and one done a few hours later - even when the FMU looks more concentrated. It's so weird! FX!!!!Quote:

I've had that thought more then once when seeing mamas of boys! But then I'll see moms with both genders and I think yeaaaaaaa they probably didn't do any swaying to get those, LOL!!!Quote:

This is definitely the same for me too. FMU are never the best lines for me!Quote:

Kiku those digital tests don't work for me until at least 16dpo with both my boys like the girls said the frers are most reliable this early xx
My temp jumped this morning from 36.59 ( yesterday's temp) to 36.89! Had lots of left sided pinching and sharp pains in the night as well as loads of creamy white cm.
ff has me at 6dpo but I think I am 7dpo... my temp always rises slowly after o. Thursday can't come soon enough!
Thank you everyone! That makes me feel much better. Our car broke down today so I'll try to get some FRER later. Since I can't see an OB until.. well who knows, since I don't actually HAVE one right now in the middle of this huge move lol, the tests are giving me something to rely on since I don't have an OB to get betas or anything. I know many women don't go in until 12 weeks, but I just get so anxious :(
I'll keep you posted! I really appreciate everyone's input. Without you guys I'd be a wreck :)
Gafan, everything they said is what I've been told. Higher odds pink for 96, higher odds conception for 72. FX FOR YOU!!!
also will be checking in on everyone else testing this week. I feel like I need to make a spreadsheet to keep up with them all coming up!
Me too!
Ooh! Kitten this sounds so promising, I am so hoping for great news for you on thursdayQuote:

And I'm just over here like, " I WON'T TEST UNTIL AFTER MY MISSED PERIOD." Pfft. Lies. Im 3 days till my period and all negatives this far. I'm trying not to be down about it because you never know. I just want to see that positive.

Barely managed a 3.5 hour hold, took it and it started to show the positive in about 30 seconds and is definitely a bit darker than yesterdays. Such a relief.
The only tests I have now are the FR Rapid Result, FR Digital, and another CB Digital. The drugstore ONLY had the 3 pack of the First Response types not just FRER, because of course they didn't ;)
Thanks again for helping me work through that panic.
Kitten and Noemi will you both test Thursday?
Thanks, Kiki! Hoping for the best and prepared for the possibility it may be another month!Quote:

How are you doing abc and kikurose?
Anyone close to testing time?
DH goes away working today for two weeks and I’m on cd 14 which is my usual O date but typically no sign of it happening any time soon. Looks like this months attempt won’t be happening.

Do you think you don’t O this month...? Does this happen often to you..?Quote:

Hi linni, I think maybe I’m ovulating late, I do usually o every month. Just bad timing this month I reckon.Quote:

Hello kiku, on Thursday i will be just 8dpo. I will test on Saturday or Sunday:)
I’m 10dpo, I’ve been testing since Saturday at 8dpo. I think I’ve seen just the hint of a line both last night and this morning, but I don’t know. I find wondfros hard to see :/ it’s my first time using them.
Looking forward to testing time for you Noemi 🤞
