January Testers (TTC September/October🎃🍂)

I'm a few days late, but too scared of disappointment so I'm not testing 😂. I was hopeful as my LP is usually consistent but I started taking seven seas preconception tables on CD1 and read that the vit B6 can prolong luteal phase and result in longer cycles.

Yeah I'm just wondering should I be seeing some faint lines at this stage

@Ella31 similar here. Had more spotting day but more leaning towards start of af than implantation. I've got some frers coming tomorrow so will do one in the morning as I cannot resist POAS
🤞🏼 for us both x

I'm 10dpo today , not one hint of a bfp or a line. Period is due in 5 days and feeling cramps already. Is it game over for me?

sorry, that was for @ttcat37 but I'm new to posting. Long time lurker here!

I did that the first time, but the month it happened for us was the month we just went with the flow! I have bought some ovulation tests for next month. It's the lack of control around the whole thing for me...maybe something i need to work on!!

@ttcat37 thank you! My DP is the same, they mean well but deffo easier said than done. Wish I was the type to just go with the flow but I’m such a control freak 🤣

@Dramallama221 it’s hard isn’t it, even if it’s only for a day when you realise you’re out. The good thing is, if you have a DC, you know you can conceive. Have you tried ovulation tests and tracking apps before? Maybe those would help you to focus going forward? Like @Roxxybabe says, most people don’t conceive in their first month, so try not to worry too much.

Fingers crossed for you @TTCno1in23 !! Hoping it was implantation!!

@Natty83 it’s hard isn’t it. My DH tells me to relax a lot (😑😑😑) but I don’t think he realises that as a woman everything runs through your head when ttc. Career, diet, exercise, lifestyle, all that.
I hope you get your conclusive answer re whether this month you’re in or out so you can plan.

12dpo BFN this morning. I know it's not conclusive, I didn't get my BFP with my little miracle DS until after AF was missed and I'm emotionally prepared to wait a while again for baby #2, it's only cycle 2 for us.
I'm just at a crossroads point where I need to decide whether to pack in work or just commit and we always said we'd do a few months ttc before we decide because it would decide for us so to speak, so my heads all over the place this morning haha.

@Roxxybabe thank you! Just overthinking as usual!! Gonna try hold out until Friday to test - long week ahead 😂

Hope everyone else has had a good week and we see some BFP soon! This thread moves too quick for me to keep up sorry😅

@Dramallama221 I don’t think there’s any reason to be getting upset at just one month in…unless you know of any reasons why you might have problems? some people have been at this for months/years so I think just try and relax and try not get too stressed out. Good luck!

@TTCno1in23 could be implantation if it’s light/spotting, or could be from DTD if you have been doing it lots or just mid cycle spotting?A chemical is when you get a positive pregnancy test and then it becomes negative and you get your period so it wouldn’t be that, only a few days left until you can test! Goos luck!!

Hey guys, really sorry this is a bit TMI but just trying to figure out if this is normal! I think I am around 8/9DPO and we DTD today, and I was bleeding a little. Could this be a sign of a chemical? Or implantation?! Google isn’t much help 😅

I'm struggling a lot, first month ttc our second and was trying to go with the flow but covid has knocked my cycle out of whack for the last few months so no idea where I am! BFN last 2 days but just want to know if I'm out this month or not! convinced myself it isn't our month and keep having a cry.

Me too. I also think there's no point testing early as I'll know soon enough if I am or if I'm not! Save myself some money on tests too!! Xx

@Knov20 good to hear, weirdly it has really chilled me out!! I haven’t taken a single supplement and I haven’t symptom spotted as much! Feels good! I actually feel more positive that it’ll happen! Xx

@Roxxybabe I feel exactly the same. I'm back running and enjoying a few glasses of wine and generally feel more relaxed. I've stopped plowing through my ovulation sticks like before too. Xx

Just had some pinky/brown blood. Could be implantation, could be out.
I'm cycle day 20 and 8 PO, but I've had 21 cycles in the last 6 months. Aghhhh!

@ttcat37 I felt the same, a bit tearful but now I'm coming to end of the bleeding I'm jusy focused on the new cycle

Hopefully the doctors give you some answers! Baby dust for the next cycle

Aww thanks @Lal33 , it’s nice to know you’re being thought about!
I was upset yesterday, had a bit of cry, but started spotting so felt a little better as I was worried if the bleed was going to take a while to start I’d miss next cycle as DH is away shortly after fertile week. Full on bleed today, it’s funny how you can leave it behind when the next cycle starts.
I've booked in with the doc next week as I’ve had 2 chems back to back. So we can conceive but not stay pregnant. Think my progesterone is ok as I’ve done Proov tests and my bbt remained really high until this morning. Hopefully something simple on a blood test!
Hope you’re doing ok, where are you in your cycle?

@LotzW it’s just too tempting isn’t it! Fingers crossed for both of us!

@kalixxx Pink is good. Cameras don't capture the same. 👍🏼 I know your pain.
I'm days off having a realistic positive if I get one but still tested this morning 🤦🏼‍♀️

@LotzW I’ve convinced myself in person there is a pink tinge, most likely wishful thinking! 😅

Thank you! I’d wait 48 hours but I think I’ll most likely test tomorrow morning 😩

@kalixxx I see something on the top test. Doesn't look like any colour but I'm not clued up on indents etc so maybe someone could offer better opinion.

I read somewhere here that levels double ever two days so test again in a day or two

🤞🏼 for you x

@Roxxybabe thank you! You are right. I’ll just go with the flow and if it’s positive, it’s positive and if it isn’t, it isn’t! 🥰

Hey everyone, sorry to jump in!

I might be imagining the line on the top test but if anyone can actually see it, do you think this is likely an indent? I thought the other two had indents on but camera won’t even pick up the line on those! These are from yesterday morning, this morning and this afternoon (top test).

I think seeing as I’m having to ask, it’s most likely an indent 😅
