Testing 19/01 onwards

[Mp0304]

Hi who else is testing from the 19th? It's amazing how lonely ttc can be when you're trying to stay chill and calm with your partner ❤️

[Zaalfruit]

Hiya everyone , I tested positive last week and this morning the lines are faint :( I guess that mean a a big fat negative

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie I'm sorry 😔 It's a horrible feeling 😔 I'm feeling quite periody today so I think I will be out this month too. It's due on Thursday xxxx

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie do you think you could have ovulated early this month? Xx

[Ktn35]

@zaalfruit are you using different tests. With my first pregnancy I got negatives and faints with cheap tests when I got clear lines with frp or CB xxx

[Zaalfruit]

@Ktn35 I get strong plus with clear blue but with first response I’m getting faint lines . :( trying to upload a pic but it’s not allowing me

[MamaPixie]

I'm sorry @Ktn35 😔 I've never bled this heavy before - every time I go for a wee the toilet is bright red (tmi - sorry) I feel quite sick so am wondering if it could possibly be a very very early mc. Can't stop crying and my partner is upset too - it's been a bit of a horrible weekend, feeling like a failure again. I've used cb opks every cycle have timed bding 5 days before and 1 after each time - another uti for nothing 😂

I really hope for you that it's not af - fingers crossed xxx

Love and thoughts to you all on here - I'm not feeling too optimistic either for this cycle. BFN at 9DPO yesterday - I know still early, but I was just hopeful as I had lots of twinges and pinches at 6DPO which I thought could have been implantation, but clearly not! AF is due on Thursday.

[Ktn35]

@zaalfruit when is/was your period due ... I'd be taking that as a positive!

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie that's shit. It could be an early MC. I have had a chemical pregnancy and that has been what my periods have been like afterwards. Really suddenly heavy and bright red. Also very painful. In sorry 😔 it does show that you are conceiving and you are apparently very fertile the month after a chemical. My first daughter was concieved that way xxxx

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie sorry I just read that post and it sounded a little abrupt and it really wasn't meant to 😩 I hope you are feeling a little better now xxxx

[Morganmom]

@MamaPixie sorry! You and DH should do something just for the two of you.
I’m feeling pretty much like the period is coming too.

[Zaalfruit]

25/01/2020 @Ktn35 how are you? I’m just hoping that maybes it’s the dye on the frer tests.

[Ktn35]

@zaalfruit I would be taking it as a positive by now! Are the clear blue ones staying positive? I'd do a CB digital!
Cautionary congratulations! Xx

[MamaPixie]

Thank you @Ktn35 😘 I didn't read it like that at all. Feeling a calmer this morning, feeling a bit more positive for next month too, thank you lovely lady, I'm sorry that you had to go though that. It would be so much easier if I wasn't 36 and had more time on my side. Here's to the next cycle 💪🏼 Your story does give me hope 😊xxxx

@morganmom fingers crossed that it isn't coming for you! I'm going to have to live vicariously through you ladies now xx

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie I was 35, 36 when my first was born and am now 37 trying for number 2 so I understand the sense pressure! Remember you are super fertile next month and have lots of sex! Are you temping? I have done it for the first time this month and I'm learning a lot about my body 😊

[MamaPixie]

@Ktn35 you're amazing, do you know that? 😊 were you trying long for your first? I was 20 when I had my Ds - so a big gap before trying for our second now 16 years later.
Will give the bbt a go again (not sure where the thermometer has gone 🙈)
How many DPO are you now? Xx

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie 🤣 not sure about that but I do understand how you are feeling! I think mid-late 30s is quite a normal age to have a baby now. All of the women in my NCT last year were in that age range (you best was 34 I think) and midwives didn't bat an eyelid that I was 36.

I have found the temping using natural cycles interesting but obviously yet to see if it has worked this month! I am due period on Friday and I could reel you off a list of symptoms which mean I am 'definitley pregnant' but I could do this every month so 🤷‍♀️😂 I think I must be 9dpo now (if you don't include ovulation day ... Are we meant to? I'm never sure!)

Going to test when 11 DPO I think (so Wednesday?)

I'm not feeling super positive about this month to be honest.

[Ktn35]

It won't let me post pictures but I just got a BFP on a cheapie I did just to satisfy my testing addiction until period was due! I was so sure I was out! I hope it sticks!

[Morganmom]

@Ktn35 hoping BFP sticks right now!

[Ktn35]

Here it is! It is positive right? I keep staring at it but I'm sure it is? I'll do a first response in the morning too...

[MamaPixie]

@Ktn35 oh my god!!!!! Eeeeeeek congratulations!!!!! That's so exciting!!! 🙈🙈🙈 I'm so ridiculously happy for you, that's such wonderful news 😊 you must be so happy xxx

[Ktn35]

@mamapixie ordered some first response from amazon so we can test tomorrow and see. Period is due tomorrow or Friday so it should show if its genuine! Fingers crossed!

[MamaPixie]

@Ktn35 I hope those FRs behave today! 😊😊😊 This is such wonderful news, so deserved as well xxx

[Ktn35]

No arguing with this line!! I hope it sticks!

[Morganmom]

Congrats! Sticky hopes for you !
