Hey TrueBlue. Well I had my smiley positive OPK at 11am on 15th Jan...so I am assuming O to be 16th Jan which makes me 6 DPO (same as you I think?!). Getting twinges and have really bad lower back ache but no other noticeable symptoms. I hate waiting!! What is the earliest we can test? Last month I only had an 11 day LP so I if AF is on her way it might be before I even get chance to test Fingers crossed - I am feel a bit down today so I think I'm being overly negative about everything!

I just tried testing at 9 dpo, feeling optimistic (even though I said I'd wait until Wednesday) and it was negative. It is a bummer getting the bfn, so if you are already feeling down, you might not want the disappointment!

Good luck!

SaraLou I plan on testing Mon 28th as long as AF has not arrived. I'm not very confident so hopes aren't too high. I know I *could* test on Sat 26th (10dpo) but I'm terrified so I'm waiting until 12dpo.
No symptoms here, a little concerned post O temps are on the low side

Just realised our 2ww is now a 1ww

Hey ltester and TrueBlue.....I rather stupidly did an OPK test today (heard they work pretty much the same as a HPT) and it was of course negative. I'm only 6DPO so not sure what the point was other than to stop myself wondering! I've slowed down on my HE diet a bit since O too, need to get back to it in case I get a BFN.

Good luck to you both, this 2ww is really no fun, I have become google crazy and am checking every symptom - it's difficult just to chill out! I've never had this before as was on the pill when I conceived dd and she was a (fabulous) suprise!

TB - I don't know much about temping as I have just been using my OPKs so not tried the BBT charting - I have my fingers crossed for you

Thanks SaraLou for you too

I used my last OPK the day of my second peak so for sanitys sake wont purchase any test of any kind until Sun night

Mum to three: fingers crossed for you that the line gets good and dark!! I've had two chemicals this year too, so I know how hard it is to trust those first few tests... but good luck with a super sticky bean! :-)

And Meeks, I'm ttc a girl too :-)

Congrats 4Giffins

I'm 7DPO and started to get twinges on my right side yesterday. I just found out today that I won a competition to a concert on the weekend for me and 3 friends including $500 of food and alcohol so looks like i'll be on the diet cokes fingers crossed.

Lol, guess who's the designated driver? ;-)

Against my better judgement, I did a hpt at 9 dpo this morning. After POAS, I took a quick glance and it was negative. In less than 30 seconds, I tossed it in my pocket and went to my desk for a few minutes.. about 10 minutes. When I looked at the test again, there was the faintest of faint lines. An evaporation line? I have a bunch of old tests in the box that I took last month (I know that is kind of crazy-- I don't like tossing them separately in fear my cleaning lady will find them -she knows too much about us as it is . Anyhow, the two other tests from the same pack had no additional line at all. Now, I really wish that I had not taken it this morning. This is making the wondering even worse!!

Violet you better retest pronto hon... I've never had a faint line come up later unless I was pregnant!
