Mid October testers?

60 replies

LittleBirdBlues · 03/10/2017 19:28

I'm 6 dpo and have used up all my methods of distraction already!

I'll be testing on the 11th if I can wait that long!

For context, we weren't actively trying but I always knew we'd have a third and there's a (small?) chance it has happened this month. It would be earlier than we planned but if there's anything I've learned it is that there's never a good time and never a bad time to have a baby. This would be my last so Im getting myself really excited.

Does anybody want to join me in this waiting marathon?

@BlueeSpottyTiger so the first opk pic was taken about 9 this morning and the 2nd opk pic was taken about 30 minutes ago 🙂. Hoping the next one I take just before bed will be even darker xx

Betsyboo87 · 07/10/2017 22:10

Bluee I can see something and that's great it's getting darker.

Mrsmumtobe so sorry af got you!

sazzle3 that's all I want too!

So.... I usually spot from 7/8dpo until af and I'm currently 10/11dpo and no spotting yet. I really don't want to test until af is due. On one hand I'm excited and on the other I'm thinking "I probably didn't ov this month as I had a cold,". Talk me down from testing please!

Mrsmumtobe · 07/10/2017 13:55

Taking it that I'm out this month, still no AF but another BFN and that's me a week 'late' think it's my body adjusting to being pill free.

Good luck all still in and yet to test xx

sazzle3 · 07/10/2017 13:06

@BlueeSpottyTiger I really hope you do aswell Hun. All I want is it get a positive test and then a baby at the end xx

BlueeSpottyTiger · 07/10/2017 10:07

The tww kills me Saz I'm sorry your still trying :( Goodluck x

I've got a slightly darker line today at 9or10dpo! Its more pink in person. 3rd pregnancy this year! I really hope i end up with a baby this time 😣

sazzle3 · 07/10/2017 09:07

@BlueeSpottyTiger I’m in my fertile period and the 2nd line is just starting to get darker 🙂 . This is the part I hate waiting for that 2nd line to be darker than the 1st and then the TWW. Xxx

BlueeSpottyTiger · 06/10/2017 23:42

Saz 🤗 glad you can!
I'll test again tomorrow morning. Dreading it being negative- this has happened before! Xx

sazzle3 · 06/10/2017 23:06

@BlueeSpottyTiger I see a line 🙂🙂 xx

Mrsmumtobe · 06/10/2017 19:24

I'm going to do one last test tomorrow then forget about it for a week or two (ahahaha as if!) if I get another BFN.
Good luck to all planning to test this weekend!

Is anybody planning to test this weekend?

I've got a visitor from abroad staying over now, it's good to be distracted!

BlueeSpottyTiger · 06/10/2017 10:40

mrsmum :( sorry for the bfn. It's so hard to see them. welcome to the group x
mrshand Goodluck for some holiday baby making 😁

Laura any update?

Soo... 8/9dpo.. got this today. Immediate cycle after mc on the 8th of Sep. If i am pg it's definitely new pregnancy as scan 8days after had confirmed baby had passed and 9 days later i had a negative test. Based my typical lp of 12 days i calculated af to be due on the 11th Oct but unsure because of the mc.

Mrsmumtobe · 06/10/2017 07:59

Another BFN from me, think I'm starting to agree with dh who is telling me I'm just late and not pregnant as a reaction to coming off pill. Though I've been off that twice over the years and never been late as a reaction

Think it will be wine for me tomorrow instead of a BFP!

Mrshand123 · 05/10/2017 22:36

Hi all, I'm on my fertile window now so testing bit later on 17th. Actually on holiday in Spain so fingers crossed October might be the month. But good luck 🍀 xx

Yay there's more of us!

mrsmum I will have some wine this weekend, it could well be the last for a long time! FX

Mrsmumtobe · 05/10/2017 16:07

Hiya

Jumping in on this one if I can please! (also started an October testing thread too so watching them both with anticipation!)

I was due AF on 2/3rd Oct but nothing as yet and only BPN tests!
I did just come off the pill early sept so wondering if that has thrown my cycles as I was 5 days into my pill cycle? I don't know! I just wish I knew one way or the other (because I have a mate date on sat with or without wine) so I could get back to 'trying'..... Gahhh

Laura2018 · 05/10/2017 15:57

BlueeSpottyTiger thank you 🌺 I haven't tested yet. I might wait until the weekend so I'm not a wreck in work!

CoconutGal · 05/10/2017 15:33

@LittleBirdBlues @BlueeSpottyTiger - I hope it’s promising. According to Ovia I can poas in 5 days. But I haven’t done a lot of tracking recently so I’m not sure how accurate that is. I have a ultrasound scan next week to check for pcos as I have been showing some symptoms so hopefully if there’s no obvious signs before that, that should shed some light. I’m hoping to see lots of BFP’s this month from you all ladies!!

BlueeSpottyTiger · 05/10/2017 15:18

Laura Sorry about your ectopic 💖 have you tested yet?? Xx
little when im 9dpo on sat🙈
Coconut Goodluck! I'm 7dpo too and I'm having lots of stabby pains in my left pelvic area. Apart from that i have nothing else happening now since the cramps stopped yesterday.

Laura2018 · 05/10/2017 10:17

BlueeSpottyTiger sorry to hear about your previous losses, I hope it goes well for you this time xx

Laura2018 · 05/10/2017 10:12

LittleBirdBlues no i'm still too scared to test! No sign of AL either....

LittleBirdBlues · 05/10/2017 09:33

coconut that definitely sounds pretty promising! Hope you're not feeling too poorly with the nausea. I'm definitely not looking forward to "morning" sickness!

Only symptoms I've had are vivid dreams and (sorry tmi) more discharge. So pretty vague. But then I only found out that I was pregnant with my first two when I was about 6 weeks in, so I think my symptoms kick in later.

CoconutGal · 05/10/2017 08:20

I’m 7dpo. Nausea always happens once AF has finished so this time round I’m trying not to symptom spot. But the nausea is unbearable this cycle. I’ve got mild cramps & some spotting this morning. So not sure what’s going on

blue oooh, you're tempting me to test earlier! I'm 8dpo now (I think) but not planning to test for another 6 days. My dad is arriving from abroad for a few days and I don't really want to test when he's around! He's leaving first thing on Tuesday

OP posts:

BlueeSpottyTiger · 04/10/2017 23:04

little I've had 2 bfps from 3 pregnancies at 9dpo (1 at 13dpo) every pregnancy is diff because of implantation. The average dpo for it is 9 but most the time it can be anything from 6-12 or even later. So you could test at 10dpo and get a bfp or you might not have even implanted. If that makes any sense 🙈

Laura aww i know! I'm so impatient right now but when it comes to the time to test i will be nervous because of previous loses. Goodluck xx

Lots of us due on the 11th 🤗
