TTC FIRST BABY - THREAD NO.8

[cupcakesandglitter]

Hi all - apologies if I've missed anyone out on here, I'm half asleep 😂

@FlapJackered @BabySquid @BambiOnIce80 @CookieWaffle @Crossfitgirl @Delilah7 @MrsAW2018 @MrsC87 @MrsR16 @EltzBee @FivexFive @ValidUser @RanchoRelaxo @rj995

@sunshine1987 my guess is I have a bit of endometrium that overgrows near the entrance to the tube. Apparently it's common but tends to reblock.

I'm no gynae, but apparently it's nothing unusual.

@Delilah7 congrats sweet, try not to worry too much now!! ❤️ xx

Oh @ValidUser that's great news, I bet you're relieved xxx

CD26 and still no positive OPK 😩 I've called the doctors and my blood test results are in, I'm gonna get a call back tomorrow morning. The receptionist said they all came back fine but I'm not sure she knew what she was looking for... here's to another night of worrying 😂😂 x

@cupcakesandglitter are you getting any colour on the OPK sticks? Could be that it doesn't show up as strongly for you. Sorry though, it is a right PITA this TTC malarkey! I know some people hate OPKs and prefer to go by CM. It's all such a head fuck.

Congrats @Delilah7 xxx

Thanks guys!!! Xxx

So... 11dpo. Thoughts? I don't want to buy an frer, they don't seem worth their money. Any body got any opinions of the internet cheapies? Second one that looks the same now x

@SenoraSurf I can see a faint line. If I were you I'd wait until day of missed period and test again and the result should be much clearer.

@SenoraSurf I really do see that!

@purplefig yeah I have, but not much 😩 so I had some faint ones but they were a shitty batch from amazon so they've all been coming up like the first pic. Took one about an hour ago and it's the second picture shown (I took it with a test from my old batch).. problem is, because this batch is so crap I don't actually know what my normal one looks like when I'm not ovulating so I can't compare whether they've been getting darker or not. Sorry if that doesn't make sense, it's really is a pain!! X

@SenoraSurf I see that too!!! Pee on a FRER!!! Xx

@senoraSurf I definitely see a faint line 🤞🏼

@cupcakesandglitter hmmm that is annoying. Could be that you're going to have a longer cycle? Are your cycles usually pretty regular?

@senorasurf I see it!!! Fingers crossed x

@cupcakesandglitter how did you know it was a crappy batch? I’ve got loads of these 🙈

@SenoraSurf pee on a stick girl!!!!! FRER X

@Delilah7, that's fantastic news!! Glad you're feeling more positive :)

I've decided I'm testing in the morning (day before af is due and day before I go away for a few days) I'd rather know than go on holiday and have it on my mind... xx

@FivexFive ooo good luck!! FX xxx

@purplefig nope, they were regular right until the first month we were TTC 😂 now they're all over the place!! I'll attach a pic below of them 😩

@sunshine1987 I'll put a pic below and try and explain it the best I can (sorry if this doesn't help!!) the first pic is literally a few seconds after dipping it - the normal ones are usually a really deep purple for a couple of minutes whereas this is a really watery pink straightaway. The second one is maybe a minute later and the control line is as faint as the test line usually is! Hope that helps x

Ooh also @sunshine1987 if you look at the last post I did with pictures where I compared the new and old batch, it's not easy to see but the second one's control is a super dark purple, whereas the first one is a faint pink x

@FivexFive all the best for the morning!

@cupcakesandglitter oh how frustrating! But I suppose if you're having another 39 day cycle you wouldn't be due to ovulate for a while yet, so could be that?

@cupcakesandglitter got you! See what you mean when I look at mine from September that I did

@cupcakesandglitter it's a huge relief!

Part of me is also relieved I wasn't fussing over nothing (irrational I know!).

@SullyWifey yeah it came up saying it had updated in based on my data...really odd.

@SenoraSurf i see a line, fx !

@cupcakesandglitter Lol your cycles changed when you started ttc? That is weird!

Well... another day, another BFN, still no sign of AF. It's getting annoying now. I just want to know either way!

Argh!! I’m wondering if I now have dodgie batch of Opks, first time using them 😫😫😫
