The July Pact 2

[krj2608]

I hope everyone doesn't mind but set up a new one as we have reached the limit!

Still jumping on if you don't mind. I like to keep checking in!

Some lovely news from the Welsh Government today that partners can start attending antenatal scans again!

[Alyosha]

@ALew15 great news! Have you booked in yet?

Still deluding myself that i might be pregnant. Repeat after me, the only true pregnancy symptom is a positive pregnancy test...!

[whambam89]

@krj2608 thank you! Who have we got left to test?

[honeysun101]

I was in the last thread, I'm still forever away from testing, AF isn't due until around the 28th. I'm feeling so impatient already, arghhhh

[krj2608]

@whambam89 have you tested yet? I just took another as I can't believe it 😂

[krj2608]

@ALew15 that's really good news.

@honeysun101 I hate the waiting! I'm pretty impatient!

[honeysun101]

@krj2608 I just saw your BFP!!! Wow, congratulations!

[whambam89]

@krj2608 nope I'm 10dpo today and somehow haven't tested! AF has shown up 10dpo last 2 months and no sign yet... I really want to hold off until Saturday but am getting more and more tempted 🙈

Today's (probably non-symptom) symptoms:
Heartburn (had on and off for 3 days now)
Bloating
Sooo gassy (gross, I know!)
Headache (has come at the same time for the last 3 days)
Sore nipples
Back ache (had this last cycle the day before AF but never before that)
Weird pale yellowish CM?? (Tmi, sorry 😂)

I'm wondering if the supplements I've been taking have finally started extending my LP

[whambam89]

Not sure if it's shown the same on everyone's but it's really annoyed me that the line breaks haven't worked properly on my last post haha 🙈

[GreysLove]

Place marking here for the second thread. I've stayed pretty chilled this month, not reading too much into things.

Congratulations @krj2608! We're cycle buddies one day apart! Ovulated the day after you, still 7 days until AF due on 23rd and I gave all tests to OH to hide cos I drove myself mad last month. So I'll just need to wait...painful itchy nipples 2/3 days ago, and a bit of a niggly uterus pain?!

Wanted to ask @krj2608 if the numbers in your user name are your birthday? If so it's same as mine 26th Aug!! Hoping some of your baby dust rubs off on me 😉

Good luck to everyone still to test, off camping on Sunday for 3 days which be a lovely change of scenery and distraction.

[krj2608]

@whambam89 you are doing well! My fingers are crossed for you!

@GreysLove thank you! they are my birthday. How funny! And What a coincidence! I hope you get you bfp too.

My husband said to me, he thought I might be as all I have been complaining about is horrible smells the last two days. I had awful thirst a couple of days ago too just couldn't get enough fluid. The nausea seems to be creeping in which I'm dreading ( had it with my previous little ones!) x

[kirinm]

Sorry, following to see how you guys go when you test!

@whambam those symptoms are sounding very positive indeed!

[whambam89]

I don't think I can spend all day tomorrow wondering if AF might show so I'm contemplating testing in the morning.... How accurate do you think it would be at 11dpo?

[sindylouwho]

My app says I ovulate tomorrow. Got some tests ordered in, incase I need them for end of the month.

[mm26]

I'm 7DPO today according to Femometer. It only confirmed ovulation with EWCM I logged so don't know how accurate that is. I'm getting tempted to test more and more each day now but going to try my best to hold off until at least the weekend. My temps are a bit all over the place and I don't think I'm too consistent. I can't really make heads or tails of it! 😂

[whambam89]

@mm26 I really haven't got a clue when it comes to charting so not much use sorry! Femometer did the same to me last cycle then I ended up getting a positive opk a week later and got excited thinking it could indicate a BFP. I didn't log my CM on there this month until I got my positive opk

[mm26]

@whambam89 it's so frustrating! I feel so lost since I never got a static smiley on the CB either! I looked at my symptom chart and if I go off of symptoms it actually looks like I ovulated 2 days earlier than this says. So it's possible I am 9DPO actually. Logging CM is so difficult. I don't fully know what different CMs look like and looking at pictures online of other people's grosses me out! 🙈🤢

Do you think you'll test tomorrow?

[SS123456]

Marking my place in the thread 😊

[Boc86]

Congratulations @krj2608

@whambam89 I also have a 10 day LP and am due on Sunday (although flo sats tuesdsy this month because of my possible chemical making my LP look longer last month)

I’m 8dpo today testing negative (yes I’ve tested stupidly early, started yesterday lol)

[whambam89]

Tested this morning BFN... I guess 11dpo is still early but I'm almost 100% I'm out now, think I'm just going to have to accept that all my pre AF symptoms are the same as pregnancy symptoms and it's likely I'll get new "symptoms" each month. I used a CB rapid detection test, not sure what the sensitivity is like on them - out of tests now though so I'll just wait for AF to show up!

[kirinm]

@whambam89 I think 11dpo could be a bit too early for the CB tests. Fingers crossed AF stays away.

I have one of those tests in the cupboard they are 25ml sensitivity so don't think you would get a positive on those that early. I used an internet cheapy which is 10ml x

Thank you @Boc86!

[krj2608]

@whambam89 I use these ones x

[whambam89]

@kirinm @krj2608 might see if I can get a more sensitive test today and test again tomorrow, definitely feeling as though it's not my month now though!
