August Testing Pond (Follow on from 24th-4th July) thread 3

@nottherealslimshady That looks like the line had got darker. Fingers crossed this wee bean is stuck in place 💕
@littlebee1990 I can see something. Fingers crossed.

@dinosaurus86 I am also at the boring point. 🤣 roll on next week.

@mylittlebean2019 Fingers crossed you get your BFP .
@DoctorBambino Hopefully it will help you conceive 💕

@Nottherealslimshady that looks like a decent line to me, and darker too. I really hope it works out.

@Littlebee1990 I think you might be right - I've had a "vvv faint line" before on CB and it turned out to be the test line - I'm sticking with pink dye from now on, so much easier to read.

@Nottherealslimshady so hopeful for you 💕✨ that's really rubbish that they wouldn't scan but I agree, the line today does seem slightly darker 🤞🏻 hope your coping with the stress 💕

@Littlebee1990 I do see a faint line, I have everything crossed for you 🤞

EPU rang, they're refusing to scan. I just have to wait a week again and see if I'm still pregnant then ring gp to start with midwives. No idea if I'm pregnant or not and theres no way to know till next week. I think test was darker today but not considerably so

@Nottherealslimshady I really hope all is ok at your scan today 🤍

@Littlebee1990 I can see a faint line there, fingers crossed very tightly for you!!

I had a smear test this morning 🤮 cd10 so just heading up to fertile week. Hoping having a smear won't make my cervix all angry and rule me out this cycle.. who knows maybe it will help!

@Littlebee1990 I think I can see a faint line! Try again in a couple of days! Well my cycle is completely out of whack so I think I ovulated on CD34, and so I’m 3DPO which means I probably won’t be testing until 15th August 😫 I obviously will be symptom spotting until then... got a couple of cheap tests in the draw so depending how I get on might start POAS in a weeks time x

Hi @Littlebee1990 sorry you’ve had a bit of a meh weekend. That does look like it could be a line to me. I guess give it a couple of days and maybe try with a frer?

I’ve been weighing up pros and cons of early testing myself. So far I’ve largely avoided it but have had at least one likely chemical and I’m thinking it probably is better to know for sure... so I might test early this month. At the same time, as you say, I’m terrified of a bfp that turns to a bfn. And equally really hate seeing a bfn...

Ages for me though. Still only CD10.

Sorry you had a rubbish day yesterday @Littlebee1990 - hope you're feeling a bit better this morning 💕
I'm in a stinking mood today...heading into work knowing that there's a pregnancy announcement coming...trying not to be bitter and twisted but I'm feeling bitter and twisted 🤣
I've just given myself a shake so I'm sprinkling all the hopeful baby dust over here to even out my karma before I start my day with a fresh, positive mindset ✨
Have a good day ladies 💕

@Kalecat - I am so sorry...thinking of you 💕

@Nottherealslimshady - your test is a positive sign! Fingers crossed for your scan tomorrow 🤞🏽

@Littlebee1990 - I’m sorry you are having a down day. As a fellow 40+ cycle this month I completely understand how you are feeling. Fingers crossed for good news at the end of the wait. When do you think you will test? X

@Littlebee1990 So sorry you've had a down day and a shit cycle. Try to stay positive, it may feel like forever but 5 months is still not long and it will feel like no time once your baby is in your arms

@Littlebee1990 thank you so much, you're so kind ❤

@Littlebee1990 I'm so sorry they dismissed you like that. The care is so variable in early pregnancy. It was 111 that sent me to A&E because of the level of bleeding, I think the early pregnancy unit are fobbing people off atm.
Still bleeding today but less so. Started cramping when walking so we came home.
Trying not to be hopeful, my boobs dont feel very tender at all and it was a lot of blood. But I took a pregnancy test this morning. Top was two days ago but middle of the day after a 3-4hr hold so could have been lower than it had been in the morning. Never used these before so cant compare it to earlier in the pregnancy but I was surprised that it was the same, kinda frustrating though, not really an answer.

@Kalecat I'm really sorry to hear that, I hope you're looking after yourself xx

@Nottherealslimshady sorry about the bleeding but it's good your cervix is closed up. I'm keeping positive for you xx

@Littlebee1990 That was so handy about the hot tub!! Bet you were relieved!

@Kalecat I'm so sorry! Here if you need a chat, I had a CP last month

@Nottherealslimshady keeping my fingers crossed for you! Easier said than done but try to relax and keep positive xx

I am so so sorry @Kalecat - thinking of you

@Nottherealslimshady I know it’s hard but try to stay positive. Thank you, great idea. I will write a list of questions for the consultant.

@1992EM thank you, I am hoping he calls this week.

@Littlebee1990 glad the hot tub decision was taken out of your hands! Enjoy your weekend

I’m so sorry @Kalecat. It’s all so unfair.

That sounds promising @Nottherealslimshady. My SIL had bouts of very heavy bleeding with her first baby and thought she’d miscarried a couple of times. But sometimes they do seem to cling on.

@nottherealslimshady just seen your latest message after I posted mine.. got everything crossed for you and lets hope your closed cervix means good news! Keep us updated, get plenty of cuddles from your dog in the mean time x
