Is it possible to dip a test to long and it makes the test really light? Or testing to far into pregnancy make it light??? I took three strip test today. Two of them look a little different but not to crazy. And the other one is super super light. I’m wondering if it’s possible I dipped it to long or it’s a dud? I’m...

I am trying to see if this will help me before I take a pregnancy test but I had a ovulation test but my ovulation window is a week away and I feel like I had implantation bleeding

Did I test too early?

My bf made me test again today after the one from last night was super faint! This was a strong 2 lines!

Is this a positive test??? Ahhh I’m certain it is but just want double confirmation

So it looks as though I've had a chemical pregnancy...last Friday I took a pregnancy test as some of the symptoms I'd been having seemed like I was pregnant, anyway a faint positive line came up and I was only a day late on my period, I then took another one the next day and again a faint positive appeared more stro...

this is our first cycle ttc for baby #2 so i have no idea what im doing lol would u say this is positive? should we be trying tonight

I’m 33 and January and February I ovulated (used clear blue digital ovulation test), but March and April I keep getting negatives even though I’m having ovulation symptoms. Periods are still normal. I’m thinking maybe my test could be messed up now. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Awaiting cycle day 1 to arrive to start stims in first cycle of IVF, anyone else??

I’ve been using Natalist early pregnancy strips, and I’m still testing negative on day 33 of my cycle (I’ve been testing every morning first thing for the past 5 days). I’m pretty regular and have cycles between 27-30 days in length. I drink a ton of water — could this be causing false negatives?

Hello I have low AMH and was just wondering if anyone knows whether having a few months breaks between full rounds of IVF or back to back rounds are better? Recently had a failed round with one embryo and worried having a break is a bad idea. Thank you

Hi girls, I've been asked to give another urine sample as my one my midwife sent off last week has mixed growth in it, anyone had similar to this & what was the outcome? I know it can be different to everyone just panicking a little and not sure what to expect x

Is there a private clinic that can remove my IUD and what's the cost? In London and near by places

Hey everyone! I don’t know why but I’m feeling way more overwhelmed the second time around, than I did with my first 😅 And just wondered if anyone had a good checklist for everything they may need second time around? I’m feeling way worse this time so feel like the time is getting away from me, and already feel…

Not sure if it is something I should start in the TTC journey, does anybody have any experience of it?

Don’t want to but kinda do 😭 want a positive result. I want to experience it again but I don’t want to change how things are now. It was emotional hard and have no support other than my partner so that part sucks and I don’t want to experience that part 😅😅😭😂

Hey, Is there anything I can do during the wait to help implantation etc?

Just had my first fertility appointment where I’ve been told I need a HSG. (Dye inserted into the fallopian tubes to check for any issues like blockages.) Has anyone had one before? How bad is the pain?

Hi everyone, I’m hoping to start my TTC Journey again in June but want to start tracking my cycles again now following my mc in Feb. What free apps and ovulation strips would you recommend? I’m a complete newbie at this and don’t have much free time to do the research. Thanks in advance x
