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

I am starting to spot light pink blood. Definitely not a good sign - don't have much hope for tomorrow morning's test. Didn't bring anything on this trip to prepare for AF as I wasn't expecting it... 😔

@mrswilso thank you for your optimism! I don't think that's the case - my lines never got dark enough for that to happen 🤍

@Littlebee1990 was the bleeding like a full period?

@1992EM I hope so too, guess we'll see tomorrow.

@littlebee1990 fingers crossed this will lead to a BFP. 💕 All sound like positive symptoms.

@kalecat hopefully just a dodgy test or urine too diluted. Hopefully tomorrow the line will be back.

@Kalecat I was 10dpo so early, tested the day after with nothing so am waiting for a few days to see if af is gonna show her face but I was due on yesterday with no signs of her coming

@Kalecat google "hook effect" - hope it offers some positivity ✨ sending lots of good vibes 💕

@Littlebee1990 how long after your chemical did your period come back?

@Pika93 when did your line disappear? How many DPO are you?

@Kalecat sounds similar to me, got my line and then it has disappeared still no sign of bleeding for either of us so that's gotta be a good sign ❤️

@Whilstwewait we're on a 7 hour road trip right now, so I wont be retesting until tomorrow morning. Certainly odd if it's a chemical as I was just at the doctors yesterday and tested positive, as well as my home tests. And then today is suddenly so faint. Hopefully just an off day but feeling quite discouraged.

@Kalecat how you feeling? Have you managed to test again? It does seem odd that its gone to nothing. Id have expected it to just be lighter if it was a chemical. Maybe too diluted or a dodgy test. Worse timing with you going away x

@dogmam I am glad you managed to get an appointment. I am sure they will be supportive.

Just rang drs.. appointment for Thursday

Thank you for making another thread @Littlebee1990 If it was me, if someone had asked me before I read this thread I would have been straight in the hot tub because I had no idea that would make a difference haha yeah maybe just don't go fully in though if that makes you feel better.

I'm 29 (30 in 2 month and reallyyyy want to be pregnant before I'm 30, purely a mental thing in my head!!) And I come off the pill in October so not sure what cycle that makes me.. 10 maybe? God that sounds depressing if so. Trying for baby number 1.

I was supposed to ring the doctors on Monday about b12 and also drop in about ttc even though it hasn't been a year yet.. but I'm scared. I have no idea why but I don't know what to say.

Hope everyones enjoying the sun!

@nottherealslimshady oh that is a good sign that you are feeling nauseas. Although hope you aren't feeling too rubbish. Thank you. Hopefully be lucky this cycle but will just go with the flow and see what happens.

@kalecat hope you manage to enjoy your wee break .x

@1992EM yes it was FMU, it's only 5:30 am where I live. We're now on our 7 hour drive to MIL's house... terrible timing.

@1992EM I'm still having some slight brown spotting so resting a bit. But I'm also feeling super nauseous so I think that's a good sign? 🤢🤞
Good luck in this next cycle, sending all the baby dust!

@kalecat 😔 oh I am sorry . Hopefully it is because you have drank too much before testing. Was it fmu?

I'm ... so confused. My heart is crushed. This doesn't make sense. I'm 16 dpo but I drank a lot of water before bed and this was only used within a 4.5 hour stretch of sleep. Surely this can't be correct??? Either my pee is diluted, or in less than 24 hours I've completed lost a pregnancy? I just tested yesterday morning and lines were darker (didn't use a FRER though). I'm crushed. Don't know what's going on... 💔

@nottherealslimshady How are things today? 💕

@pika93 Fingers crossed AF stays away and you get a BFP soon x

@whilstwewait I hope this is your lucky cycle 💕
@mrswilso sorry to hear that. It could be you will have a shorter cycle this time if you ovulate earlier . Are you normally regular ?

@spinksy9 Those are good strong lines . Fingers crossed this wee bean stays stuck 💕

@kalecat Those are good strong lines too 💕

@dinosaurus86 That is the benefits of AF coming early . I am also now 2 days ahead which has worked out quite well for when ovulation will likely be.

AF has more or less stopped now for me which is quite nice considering it should only have just started. CD4 so at the boring part but will hopefully go quickly as have a busy week next week and straight into fertile week after. 👍

Check us out having to have a new thread 😂 AF was due today but so far is a no show, had a vvvvfl 10dpo but have had all negatives since, hoping af keeps her head away ❤️

Thanks for setting up @Littlebee1990 AF due in a couple of days for me and if no luck we will be onto cycle 14 😭 personally id go in the hot tub. I went in last week during my 2WW. As long as you're not staying in to long to the point you're boiling then im sure it'll be fine. Personal choice though after trying to conceive for so long I just dont want to miss out on too much as its a long haul. X

I had another peak on my LH strip after work so I dipped a Freedom HCG strip and it's negative so I think it's safe to say it's not pregnancy for me...which leads me into my next worry...holy crap CD6/7 is way too early for ovulation no?
I reckon I'll be investing in a BBT thermometer for next cycle...

@Spinksy9 sending sticky baby dust!
@Littlebee1990 I think you're right not to risk it, I think you'd worry yourself too much afterwards, I know I would.

More brown discharge from me 😔 I'm just desperate to get to 6 weeks safely
