hello Smile

im crossing everything for a bfp on valentines day

cycle #3 for me, ttc our 2nd child

added pressure that if no bfp by mid march we have to stop ttc as ill be starting treatment as I have ms but im feeling hopeful I can tell my consultant no treatment as bfp! !

anyone want to keep me company?

I wish I hadnt tested early, had 3 tests with evaporation lines which was just cruel!

Oh no that's harsh. What actually is an evaporation line?

Report
littlemisswine · 11/02/2014 13:14

a line that doesnt have any coloured dye but is definitely there, looks kind of like a shadow I suppose but in the right place

I used the cheap tests so threw them out in protest and have ordered a digital one but wont use it unless agmf doesnt show

Ah right I see. I think I might have seen something like that on an ovulation tester I used once. It is really cruel isn't it. That's putting me off testing with them. Suppose I'd only believe it was a bfp if it was definitely coloured then. I'm really building myself up this month, going to be so gutted if I don't even get to POAS! Are you testing day after missed period then?

Ive used them before and they were great so I think ive got a dodgy lot of them and don't want any more false positives

ill test on fri if they come by then as bought them on amazon so waiting for delivery. when will you test?

Ah right. Still they shouldn't sell dodgy ones, it's not like you need any extra stress!

I was saying Saturday originally, but if I have no symptoms I might test on Friday as well. Wishing the week away already!

That could be a good sign mynameiskenadams, fingers crossed for you!! I'm the same as you Helen I have no symptoms at all and I just know Af is around the corner!!

Report
Helen87 · 11/02/2014 14:43

I know yeah. I'm hoping no af symptoms is a good sigb too because neither my mum or sister knew they were pregnant until they were late!

I've been getting lots of cm recently though (tmi) reckon it could be a sign either way?!

littlemisswine · 11/02/2014 15:06

I really dont thats why I threw them out!

hoping I get the digital ones before af destroys my hope

Yeah they say cm could be a sign of both! But if your mum and sister both didn't know until the were late that could be the same for you!

I can't believe it's only Tuesday afternoon I'm trying to keep my self busy so I have no temptations again!!

Helen87 · 11/02/2014 16:25

Yeah you just don't know do you. I wasn't too bothered towards the end of last month and didn't even poas, I think it's because I knew there wasn't really any chance but it's different this month!

It's painful isn't it. I really don't want to cave and test early though but it is getting harder!

Thisistheyear2014 · 11/02/2014 17:20

Well at least we can all keep eachother busy and talk about it together! It's good having people to talk to otherwise I think I would drive my Dh away!

Has anyone got anything nice planned for valentines day?

Report
Helen87 · 12/02/2014 07:45

Yeah exactly, and Friday is coming ever closer!!

I'm going out for a meal with family because it's my dad's birthday and that was the only free day I have. Still be nice though Smile you? Just remembered I need to buy DH a card!!!

Dh is starting to get antsy - he wants me to POAS. Normally he is very laid back!

Valentines - packing for our holiday, and ill cook steak. We dont do gifts but I have got him a lovely card. Will do some crafts with dd in the day for her to make somethig for dh

That sounds lovely! Just going to cook for Dh we don't give presents either!! Only 2 more days to wait getting very excited now.

Where are you going mynameiskenadams?

Report
MyNameIsKenAdams · 12/02/2014 13:35

The highlands of Scotland. We go every year, a big group of us. I think this year is our 14th year in a row Grin

Its a little bittersweet as if my last pg had been successful, id be 37weeks, and had still planned on going, had researched hospitals and planned on doing nothing for a week. However it wasnt meant to be andat least I can get stuck into all the holiday activities!

Thisistheyear2014 · 12/02/2014 14:11

That sounds like fun, How long will you be going for?
Sorry to hear about your mc, hopefully this will be the month for you!!

Does anyone know if your lubal phase always stays the same or does it change month to month? Because I have looked at my calendar and seen that I ovulated on cd15 this month but last month I ovulated on cd13 with a lubal phase of 15days I'm a bit confused I think my af should be here on Sunday not Friday? Can anyone help?

Helen87 · 12/02/2014 14:34

Mynameiskenadams- sorry to hear about your MC. How far gone were you when that happened? Were you trying for a long time? Your holiday sounds nice!

Thisistheyear-do you mean luteal phase?! Never heard of a lubal phase?!

Yes, sorry stupid autocorrect on my phone!

We were eleven weeks but the pregnancy had stopped progressing at eight weeks (unbeknownst to us).

We had only been ttc three months, and fell pretty quickly with dd too, so if this time ttc takes an age ill be up the wall!

Teehee at lubal phase.

Helen87 · 12/02/2014 17:18

Aw that must have been awful. Do they know why? Is this your 2nd child you're trying for then?

Report
MyNameIsKenAdams · 12/02/2014 18:42

No, sadly they wouldnt test for anything as it was my only mc. Yeah, second dc, we have a two year old.

Is everyone else ttc their first?
