Testing Around 11th July

@fashu hiya, how exciting on the house front! Best of luck for that and for testing tomorrow. Are you 13dpo today then? I'm also testing tomorrow but I'll only be 11dpo and feel very pms today as I did yesterday so not holding out much hope. Only doing it as I want drink guilt free this weekend 😂 my sisters baby shower so I feel drinking is essential to get through it lol!

Hi All, how are you all doing??
I'm going to be testing tomorrow, somehow I survived the 2 week wait without testing! Well maybe because we are all systems go with a move. Had an offer accepted on our dream house and had a offer this morning on ours which is the asking price! So excited. A positive test would be the cherry on the cake right now! Fingers crossed and hope everyone is well!

7 days late and after 5 tests AF arrived 😭🙈 that's me out til around the 16th of August , best of luck

@eastcoastgirl yeah you're meant to put it under the tongue - try it tomorrow and see if it makes a difference?

@juno231 mouth temps, but just in my mouth but not under my tongue, could that make a difference? It seems to take forever to take a reading and maybe my mouth does open a bit while it does it, wonder if that's the problem

FYI I really enjoy temping! Here's my chart from last cycle apropos nothing at all lol :)

@eastcoastgirl how are you temping? Looks like armpit temps for me and those are really unreliable - def do mouth temps over those!

If mouth ones then make sure your mouth is fully closed when you do them and no sips of water or anything beforehand. If you have the patience for it, warm the thermometer up in your mouth for a minute or two before temping.

@AnnaPosie yeah I'd think it would be as well but some ppl are slow to produce hcg. If you're still not on in a weeks time you could ask your GP for a blood test. Best of luck!

@notyetamumbuttrying yes I track my ovulation and my cycle is always the same length, I use three different apps and they are all fairly similar, I've been getting my period on the 8th or 9th of each month for the last year I would say and I started taking the multivitamins after my period last month so it's the only thing that has changed , I'll definitely be throwing them in the bin ! I don't think there is any point doing any more tests as surely by now it would test positive or show a faint line but there's no line at all.

@AnnaPosie aww I can see why! 5 days is a long time to be late. Did you track ovulation and know your LP length?

I'm five days late, convinced it's because of pregnacare vitamins as I've seen so many people say this happened as well, I caved and tested again to today and still a negative. It's so annoying as my cycle is so thrown off now and I keep letting myself hope maybe I am pregnant 😂🙈

@juno @eastcoastgirl I haven't tried the temperature thing either , I think it would just confuse me and stress me out !

@eastcoastgirl I'll be due on again 28th July as my cycles are only 24 days long!
I don't temp for this reason, I think it would stress me out more! I hope someone can help though! I'm ovulating today so got one session in this morning, I doubt I can get him to do it again tonight but I'll try anyway 😆 we've done 4 days in a row and that's the most we've ever done in a row before. Not even on our two week honeymoon last year 😂
Good luck everyone!

@Juno it seems so, unless I've missed one? Did Sussexbythesea get a BFP or did I dream that??

Next testing for me is 1st August, I'm just starting my fertile week this week. Trying tempting this cycle but not sure I'm doing it right. I haven't managed exactly the same time every morning, I think once or twice I've laid half awake for half an hour or so before I've temped and my temps all seem quite low - 35.41, 35.56, 35.83, 36.50, 36.50 for the last 5 days. Shouldn't they be between 36 and 37?

Good luck for this cycle to everyone else! Hoping for some more BFPs this time around!

@MintGreenLife thanks, and likewise!!
@Juno231 seems so 😔

Ah shoot did we seriously get to the 13th and not have a single bfp?

@MintGreenLife not heard of that, might look into it. I'd give the agnus a try as I'm testament to seeing that your cycle goes bk to normal afterwards. Just start with a much lower dosage than me 😂

@MintGreenLife it is so hard to know what to do for the best sometimes isn't it! But you're right, you do have to eat so just everything in moderation and then you can't go wrong! I eat loadsa fruit so perhaps that's where I'm going wrong 🤷🏾‍♀️

@MintGreenLife I decided to stop because I'll be going to the drs soon and I wanted my cycle to be my normal rather than how I'd changed it. In case it affects any tests etc. I also just want to talk to a dr about my early ovulation so that I know whether to worry about it and try and delay it or just let my body do what it wants. It's a great tablet for hormonal imbalances as it did calm my pms, lighten my flow and delay my ov so it did everything I wanted so I won't knock it. I'm just not sure about taking it again until I've spoken to a dr and if they think my early ov is an issue or not. I hope it helps you, I'm almost certain it will tbh! Have you read the agnus castus thread on here yeah?

@MintGreenLife hi, you're right! so for some unknown reason the ones I bought were 2200mg a tablet! 😳 I've since read that 800mg is probably enough so no wonder my periods lightened and my LP shortened lol! I would defo give it a try if you're not ovulating. I used them to delay my ov which it did by two days but the first time it shortened LP by two days making it 12 and then the next cycle it delayed it by one making it 13. I'm off them now so I'm sure I'll go bk to my normal 14LP as I've ov'd early like usual on cd10 this cycle. Just make sure you take a normal dose, or check with a dr first as it's pretty potent for a herbal tablet.
