Ttc, two week wait...

@mrsmw132 it is so early. Implantation apparently most commonly occurs 9dpo, or so I read somewhere, so no chance of even a hint of a line before it's even implanted.

Roll on 12dpo when either way we can be fairly certain how we've done

[quote PennyPencils]@mrsmw132 how exciting.
When I was pregnant in November, my afternoon tests were stronger than the FMU ones. Have you got more to try another if youve not had loads to drink to dilute it too much?
I've got my fingers very crossed for you[/quote]
We tried one this avo- but it looked pretty negative. But it's only 8dpo- we aren't writing it off by any chance!
Keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

[quote PennyPencils]@mrsmw132 that it battered 😂

I would absolutely let myself get a bit excited over that if I were you!

I've looked at mine 100 times and shockingly a faint line is refusing to appear. I'll probs do one tonight. I've had to order more as I've only got 4 left. That won't last!!![/quote]
It's soooooooo hard. I'm like externally - maybe it's just an indent, shadow or false positive.
Internally- I'm like, could this be our rainbow baby ?

FRER is so hard to photo but my inter cheepie picked it up

@mrsmw132 Ooh great, it starts to get interesting now.
Hope you got back to sleep ok.
Can you post a picture. I love line eyes threads.
The cramps and spotting this early sounds very positive.

Yes it is 4am, but very unlink me I couldn't sleep. So I did a pregnancy test at 8dpo.I know it could be line eyes, but I sure there was the faintest line on it.
Has a bit of spotting this morning and horrendous cramp yesterday so hoping it was implantation.
I'll keep you updated x

What day does everyone usually cave and start testing ?

@mrsmw132 I am clueless about what these figures mean but that's good news then!

How are you feeling? Any symptoms?
My IC was a blank white again of course as I'm just 7dpo. Possible twinges in bag but easily pre AF symptoms so I'm not thinking anything of it

@PennyPencils @dogmum93 the progesterone came back at 36.5
I would be lying if I knew what it meant other than I ovulated for sure.

The app is free. It's called Premom.
I think it's quite good and inexpensive. Others may have other suggestions.

Off for my bloods, will let you know how it goes [/quote]
Thank you! I'll definitely look into it then! Good luck with the bloods!!

@dogmum93 I use femometer app as it was the same brand as the bbt thermometer I got from Amazon. I find I can take a pic of the same test more than once and depending on the angle it changes the percentage on the app. So I use common sense and go by eye a bit too.

@mrsmw132 good luck. Fingers crossed for you x

[quote mrsmw132]@PennyPencils I use the easy@home kits. You open the camera on the testing app and it measures it.

I am going for a day 21 blood draw tomorrow.

When I was pregnant in Nov, my day 21 draw had a 48! I'm so nervous that tomorrows one is not as much. [/quote]
Hi! I hope you don't mind me asking, we are going to start TTC for our first in October but I'm (hopefully irrationally) worried about my fertility. I think I might start to track my ovulation in the run up to trying, I have seen the easy@home tests. Do you have to pay for using the app? Thanks x

@mrsmw132 ah thanks for that. I do that on my femometer app only it doesn't make a chart with it.

@Lifeafterloss22 I know exactly what you mean. When we DTD before the fertile window it's so much more enjoyable, I can have a couple of wine here and there, and then it all starts again.
Well we I think once we are successful and have our babies, which we will, we will have really earned them 😂

@mrsmw132 Gosh i don't understand the levels so wouldn't know what it should be. The more tests etc, the more to be nervous about it feels. So jealous of those who fall easily and will luckily never know all of this.
I know when I've used opks at the end of the cycle, I've got quite dark lines just before I got AF and got excited, was bfn on an IC and I ready you can can a surge as you get your period.
Oh well, at least now I know eh?
Any more symptoms today?
I've got nothing today, maybe a bit if backache but that could be the yoga I did yesterday. 🙄

@PennyPencils I know I shouldn’t compare but my last 2 pregnancies, although resulting in loss I never had any cramping in the two week wait and had strong lines at 10dpo!

It’s crazy how our bodies work, Its also easier for me to accept and look forward to the next cycle. The first 10 days of my cycle are also really refreshing as there’s no symptom spotting , testing or obsessing haha!!

Xx

@PennyPencils meant to post this for you

@PennyPencils I use the easy@home kits. You open the camera on the testing app and it measures it.

I am going for a day 21 blood draw tomorrow.

When I was pregnant in Nov, my day 21 draw had a 48! I'm so nervous that tomorrows one is not as much.

@mrsmw132 ah that's what the chart is. How does it measure your LH? Is it from pics of your opks? Do you temp?

@Lifeafterloss22 when I managed to get pregnant in November I was really far on before I could say I had a line. You never know.
I have to coach myself into expecting AF every time towards the end and I get so caught up in testing for a line, I forgot that I might just not be.. every time!

I’m out this month, tested today (12dpo) and not even a squint of a line. Got really bad cramps and a breakout of spots so AF will be here in a matter of days 🙄. Needed to test today because I’ve got a wedding tomorrow and didn’t want to feel guilty having a Prosecco!

Onto April, usually just stick with OPK but going to try and familiarise myself with BBT.

Good luck everyone x

So this morning I had a massive dip in my LH- it went down to 0.01 - this afternoon it's at 0.4! Hopefully this might be the start of a rise!!
