TTC cycle 3

So from the title you guys can tell I've not been TTC very long, but this is my third cycle, didn't have a period for the whole of September, but all pregnancy tests say neg so I'm guessing I've not ovulated. Getting more and more upset with every neg test. Anyone want to jump on this thread for support ? Feeling like I could do with some right now x

@BLS1983 do you think it's actually pos and not just evap ! I'm so nervous ! I literally get anxiety in my chest thinking about it being an evap, so scared to go to the docs and them tell me it's not a positive xx

@bump98
Omg! It looks like this is it for you my love. Fab idea to have an open mind going to the docs just in case but that looks positive. Awww huge congrats lovely x

@SundayShoes I'm waiting until I've been to the doctors, he works night so he won't even know I've been to the doctors until I know what's going on ! It's very exciting but I'm so scared it's just an evap :( xxx

I edited the picture to show my friend the line and you can see it more clearly, found another secret test at my boyfriends house ! Will do another test in the morning with FMU and then will either go to the docs either with the thought I might be pregnant or about a missed period and see what they say, thankyou so much for your support, it's really helping me :) xx

@BLS1983 I really feel for you, if I'm not pregnant I just want to start my period now and have a fresh cycle x

@SundayShoes I'll hope for the best but I'm not feeling positive, the test seemed a bit off, there's no reason for it to be as it's in date and I did everything correctly, just pessimistic and I'm inclined to believe it's an evap not a baby xx

Hi @bunhead34
I've used the clear blue ones (although I didn't actually OPK this month because I was on holiday) and I found them so simple.

I use the clear blue tests too (hence being clueless about lines!!). I've seen quite a few bad reviews on here though so may have to switch, not that it makes any difference if I'm not pregnant anyway!!

@bump98 That's such great news!! So exciting!

BLS1983 · 02/10/2018 13:31

Thanks @SundayShoes and @bump98
I'm ok. A tad disappointed to have had a 42 day cycle for nothing xx

@SundayShoes ahaha two is pregnant, I can see a line and so can a few of my friends and there deffo is one when I look at it in person, but could be an evap, will try and book in with my GP tomorrow as I've had enough and just want to know !!

@bunhead34 of course! I've never used the clear blue, only the strips which in my opinion are shite, if I'm not pregnant I'm deffo switching to clearblue. And lol tell me about it, everytime I do a pregnancy test I feel bad chucking it in the bin, I've been thought at least 10 this this past couple of weeks if not more 🤦🏻‍♀️ xx

Can I join in?
I'm just about to start ttc on cycle 3.

I think my ovulation maths have been off the last two months as I've been getting a lot of old (Brown) blood at the beginning of AF but apparently you shouldn't actually count that as period!
I came off the pill in June so maybe my body still catching up.

Also I'm 34 and hoping I haven't left it too late 😭

I'm using ovulation tests this month! Is anyone using the clear blue ones?

I've been though so many pregnancy test already, I'm feeling bad for the environment 😂

SundayShoes · 02/10/2018 10:56

@bump98 is it 2x lines for pregnant? I'm the worst person to ask because I've seen so many of these threads with people posting pics and I can't see anything but everyone else says it's a yes. Really hope it's a yes for you!!!

@SundayShoes I have heard that some implantation is so similar to a normal period it can be mistake as a period and then the woman thinks she hasn't conceived? I don't know how accurate that is though zx

OP posts:
SundayShoes · 02/10/2018 10:04

@BLS1983 really sorry to hear that. It never gets easier does it.

@bump98 do it!!

I've still got this little bit of pink spotting which is so different from my usually really heavy periods with awful cramps. It's day 6 of the spotting now so sure it's not implantation but it's also definitely not my normal period which is just odd.

@BLS1983 pretty sure I can see a line but also pretty sure it's an evap xx

@bump98
I'm going next week if nothing simply based on a missed period x

@SundayShoes my partner is away for a month from the 16th of October so I kind of needed September too :(

@BLS1983 9 weeks is a very long time, but yeah the line for her wasn't really faint but not a line you'd expect to see at 9 weeks, but I was kind of thinking I might be able to see something, I'll try again tomorrow morning and then start tracking ovulation tomorrow if nothing. I was thinking about a blood test but I don't know if my period is late enough for GP to do me a blood test, not even sure what I would say, "i feel pregnant but my tests are negative" lol xx

BLS1983 · 01/10/2018 22:22

@SundayShoes
I really hope this is your month too hun. Im hoping it is for me as have a family holiday booked for next June. Will have to not go if fall next month. Let us know if you use your hidden test :-) x

BLS1983 · 01/10/2018 22:21

@bump98
:-)...good girl :-). Everything crossed for you. I think I have low hcg also hun and it's so frustrating I do understand. 9 weeks is a LONG time! Maybe get a blood test if tomorrow morning is neg? X
