Thanks @Ellsbells112! Let’s hope so 🤞🏼

Ellsbells112 · 08/12/2019 18:09

@Sunflower2019 sorry I meant to also say the drinking wouldn't have made it go so don't think that but it would have made your wee darker. How are you feeling? I hope you're OK xxx

@Ellsbells112 hey lovely,

I’ve tested with FMU and still nothing, I keep looking at the other test, the line is still there! So annoying as I’m not sure what to think!

I’m gutted but hoping January is our month, it my bday then!

How are you? Xx

Ellsbells112 · 09/12/2019 08:21

@Sunflower2019 Ahhh that's really sad!!! I'm so sorry ❤️ I remember my friend had 4 chemical pregnancy's all in a row and then got pregnant with her daughter. No idea why but very sad!
I'm okay, charting temps and haven't had a dip yet I'm 7dpo today and I feel fine😓 probably not our month again ffs
I don't know how my temps will be affected by travelling for basically a whole day either, I don't know if there's much point of me charting it xx

@Sunflower2019 sorry girls I'm very bad at weekends always have loads on. 7DPO is way too early to test I thought you were going to be strong 💪 this month. If you have to test Wait till 12 DPO and take a test then and then you will know either way.
@Ellsbells112 a lot of people don't have an symptoms i had none before my First BFP. So I would take that as a good sign xx

I was @Sophieb15 but I took that test and was shocked when I saw a line especially on frer but nothing since, feel stupid as I can still see the pink line, couldn’t be an evap surely but wishing I hadn’t tested as wouldnt if known! How are you?! I’m 9DPO today, want af to hurry so I can get over all this!

@Ellsbells112
Really? That’s awful, I hope that’s not what I have to deal with, so strange isn’t it! I guess the only good thing is we can eat all that cheese etc over Xmas 😂 You are still in with the chance though! No symptoms doesn’t mean no BFP! Xx

@Sunflower2019 sorry looked at the dates again your due sat. Have you symptoms? X

Ellsbells112 · 09/12/2019 09:00

@Sunflower2019 probably best if next month you don't test till later on I think that's sound advise just to save yourself the stress xx haha yeah you can drink etc and not worry of course! 😊

@Sophieb15 thanks hun, I know what you mean as I've also had a pregnancy with no symptoms and only found out at 6 weeks I guess because I'm waiting to feel something I'm like where are the cramps!? Lol xx

Sunflower2019 · 09/12/2019 09:13

Due af on 14th @Sophieb15 :) not holding out hope, just not sure what to think at this stage!

@Ellsbells112 definitely not testing earlier that’s for sure, rollercoaster of emotions, and chucking that test out today! Xx

TunnocksTcake · 09/12/2019 09:26

@Sunflower2019 so sorry the lines arent showing but Sophie's right, it is still very early to be testing. Try to wait until Af is late now then you will know for sure.

My temps are nice and high this month, makes me wonder if there was something wrong previous months but probably reading too much into it. Always get above coverline and that's what matters I think.
Saw my 1 year old nephew at the weekend and its made me so so broody! He is the sweetest little boy though, so smiley and happy to be passed around. My heart!

Sunflower2019 · 09/12/2019 11:13

I had the BFP on the frer at 7dpo tho.. no reason it would just disappear, think it just didn’t take! No af as yet so I’ll hold onto that!

I stopped taking my temps but did this morning and still above cover line.. and no significant dips as yet xx

Good luck @TunnocksTcake

SoshoSnow · 09/12/2019 13:08

@Sophieb15 Thank you! I got my static smiley this morning 😊 xx

@Sunflower2019 I had a faint line CD 8 a few months ago!!! so I'm not sure whether these tests can give false positives implantation usually doesn't occur until 6-12 DPO so to get a faint line at 7DPO is weird because they say it takes 48 hours for the hcg to develop and for you to get a positive. I think best thing to do is just wait until sat and if u don't get them do a test sun morning u have a really good chance of getting a BFP if u don't get them sat! Xx

@Sophieb15 I would of thought that but it’s very pink in real life.. if it’s an issue with the tests that’s so bad :( x

End of Dec bus (hopefully a lucky bus)!!!!

@Sunflower2019 Unless you ovulated earlier maybe. Have you tested anymore?

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 10/12/2019 19:56

I did yesterday @Sophieb15 I think I just ovulated quickly and maybe implanted and it didn’t stick... who knows :(

@Ellsbells112 apparently the other thread is closed?! What???

Xx

Fredthespider · 10/12/2019 20:34

@Sunflower2019 and @Ellsbells112 the other thread has reached 1000 posts so it gets closed to new posts. Far too chatty :) new thread is here - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/3765545-New-Thread-for-The-crazy-gang

Can I join? I'm new to this and on my first cycle of ttc! Well.. kind of my first cycle as we only started trying about 10 days ago and I'm somewhere in the middle of my cycle atm!

Sunflower2019 · 10/12/2019 21:02

Thanks @Fredthespider xx

SoshoSnow · 11/12/2019 16:49

@Sophieb15 I could only DTD on Monday as OH had to travel back for work. I hope it's enough! Fingers crossed Xmas eve is a happy BFP and not a stressy PMSsy 😂😂 xx

Tamalama · 12/12/2019 07:46

Morning everyone! How is everyone doing? I'm cd14 today, so far we've dtd cd8, 10 & 13. According to my tracking app over the last few months I usually get a positive opk on cd12 or there abouts, my average seems to be cd13 that I ovulate but on the rare occasion it's been cd14 with a positive opk on cd13. I'm not using opks this month but I've got ovary twinges today. Going to dtd this evening but then the earliest we can dtd again is Sunday. I suspect I will have ov by then so hopefully I will have done enough...

ceebee21 · 12/12/2019 09:24

Hi all, how is everyone?

I am CD16 and still not OV yet... not had a positive OPK, so who knows what's going on!

Looks like I will be testing around Xmas day if it happens int he next few days xx

Tamalama · 12/12/2019 10:19

@ceebee21 it's frustrating isn't it? My af is due on Christmas Day, so I'll be testing around that time too!! X
