Have you taken a test @LeopardLover ? I can’t remember

LeopardLover · 14/08/2020 18:14

@whambam89 Oh I'm so sorry 😔 May babies for the win though. Sending virtual hugs!

@kirinm Glad you know what it is, hopefully it clears up soon!

@Sansa87 Hmmm, maybe start the cheapy ones? Hopefully you'll just hit peak tomorrow!!

@89Ann Thank you! Annoyingly AF hasn't showed, I've just been dealing with the pains. I'm now 2 days late - I think it'll arrive during the night but I'd rather get on with it. X

Sansa87 · 14/08/2020 13:51

@whambam89 May babies are nice. We can have a May baby group ❤️ I of course had a google, & if by some miracle I ovulate and get a bfp this month, they would be due May 3rd

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 13:17

@kirinm so glad they've found the cause, hopefully you'll start to feel better soon!

@sansa87 I don't think it's a chemical otherwise surely I'd have had more than just the one positive test? Although I didn't test until 11dpo so I suppose it could be possible 🤷🏻‍♀️ either way, onto the next cycle!

Sansa87 · 14/08/2020 12:01

I’m hoping the fact they are getting darker is a good thing? Though I’ve read that you need to ignore the sticks on the digital advanced? I’ll take a cheapy one in next wee.

I’m so glad it’s that @kirinm I was dreading it was something retained from you chemical. Hope the meds help soon!

I’m off work today and tomorrow, thank god. Nothing seems real or important there anymore.

*blood not bloody

kirinm · 14/08/2020 11:19

Oh that's such shit news @whambam89 I can't believe how many shit tests are on the market.

I've been to the EPU and they found bloody, protein and something else I can't remember the name of in my urine so it's a confirmed UTI. I'm so relieved to have found the cause.

Sansa87 · 14/08/2020 11:18

cd19. I put the first day of my cycle as 27th when I had my surgery. I’ve read some people have ovulated 3 weeks after surgery instead of 2 though. But then I don’t know why I’d get so many flashing smilies.

It was so simple last time. 3 days of high, 2 days peak 😔

@whambam89 I’m so sorry 😔 is it considered a chemical, or a false positive?

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 09:20

AF has just turned up so that confirms which tests were right and which was wrong! Yesterday's test has properly messed with my head, I won't lie.

Anyway... onwards and upwards... Let's hope for lots of May babies! 👶

89Ann · 14/08/2020 09:15

Morning ladies 🙂 sorry to hear lots of AF and BFN this morning @whambam89 @Boc86 @LeopardLover
@Sansa87 how frustrating for you. Hope you all have a lovely weekend xx

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 08:27

Thank you @BuckleUp x
Thank you @MrsB2019x sorry you feel poop
Thank you @LeopardLover ❤️
That’s so annoying for you @Sansa87

MrsB2019x · 14/08/2020 08:22

@whambam89 Still not out until AF shows lovely x

@Sansa87 What CD are you on now? Such a headfuck, as if you haven’t gone through enough already! Has work been any better for you as the week has gone on? x

LT103 · 14/08/2020 08:18

@whambam89 sorry to hear that. I’ve had that too. 2 cycles ago I got a really clear pink line on an iv then bfn that afternoon and bfn on an frer next day. My line came up straight away so not an evap. I don’t know. But it’s made me more wary of cheap tests and of early testing. I still test but won’t get excited about anything until af late now.
I hope these recent tests are wrong for you and you still get your bfp 🤞

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 08:05

@MrsB2019x @LeopardLover @Sansa87 thank you ❤️ I think it's worse because I was actually ok with getting a BFN this month, I've been more relaxed about it than I have the previous months and then I stupidly tested and got my hopes up. I just can't wait for the day I POAS and see a nice strong line 😭

Sansa87 · 14/08/2020 07:59

I’m so sorry @whambam89 I didn’t think false positives were really very possible at all.

Booooo @LeopardLover

I’m feel very FU body today. I’m day 8 of high fertility. I think I had ew cm yesterday (I’m doubting myself now) and googling about ovulation after a surgical miscarriage. I hate google so much sometimes, I think I spent 2 hours yesterday evening on there 😅

If I’m not going to ov this month, I just want af here and out the way so we can get started.

LeopardLover · 14/08/2020 07:54

@Boc86 Sorry AF has arrived 😭

@whambam89 As you used a different test, the sensitivity will be different - don't be disheartened yet, this doesn't mean you had a false positive! I knew it was coming, still sucks though... Ready for AF to start so we can crack on with cycle 4!

@BuckleUp Thank you, lovely. 💖 Cramps have certainly eased, just keen for AF to show up, STAT. Hope you're feeling okay.

@kirinm Good luck today! X

MrsB2019x · 14/08/2020 07:50

Oh @whambam89 I’m so sorry, what a head scrambler for you! I hope you get answers soon x

Welcome to the AF club @Boc86 and @LeopardLover. Mine is kicking the absolute shit out of me today! I feel awful!

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 07:36

@BuckleUp it was a different test I used this morning so not sure on the sensitivity differences but feel like I'm clutching at straws. Stuck between may as well use the other 2 tests I have in so I'm not making myself feel this rubbish every day and waiting and testing again tomorrow morning. Don't know why I let myself get excited, I literally saw the line appear so it definitely wasn't an evap - why are places allowed to sell tests that give this false hope?! False positives are meant to be "impossible" but they seem to be so common at the moment.

BuckleUp · 14/08/2020 07:25

@whambam89 You never know, and like you've said, at least your LP is longer this cycle.

@LeopardLover Sorry your temp has dropped. I hope the cramps have stopped hurting so much. Thinking of you x

@Boc86 @MrsB2019x Sorry AF has arrived. Time for a refreshing drink in the garden for the both of you x

@Tigger1987 I hope your migraine is better today, that must be especially hard in this heat..

@kirinm I hope the EPU gives you some answers and you're feeling better soon 💐

@89Ann Welcome to the group, everyone here is lovely. Those thoughts are normal but 3 cycles TTC is still early days. Wishing you all the best this month 😊

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 07:05

Ahh sorry for bfn and thank you ❤️😢 x

whambam89 · 14/08/2020 06:52

BFN this morning 😭 different test to yesterday but not even a hint of a line. Yesterday's line 100% has colour and came up within less than a minute so I'm so confused. Boobs still sore and still no sign of AF - I suppose the only plus if it was a false positive is that my LP is longer again than last month.

@Boc86 sorry that AF has shown up!
@LeopardLover sorry about the temp drop... It's so emotionally exhausting isn't it 😔

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 06:46

Af is here 😭😭😭😭

Boc86 · 14/08/2020 06:39

Thank you ❤️
BFN this morning, testing to check for another chemical which luckily it isn’t this time

Aww no boo for AF :(

LeopardLover · 14/08/2020 06:14

Morning!

@Boc86 It's so tricky, isn't it. I am tempted to confide in one person like you did! I'm sorry you've been through such a difficult time. 😔

It was all very dramatic last night - as the crazy storm hit I felt like I had thunder and lightning in my uterus! 😂 BBT took a plunge so AF is coming today. Xx
