24th June - 4th July Testing Buddies (thread 2)

[Wyewaving]

I hope @littlebee1990 doesn't mind me starting a new thread as our old one was full...

Congratulations to @SK2970 who had just posted a positive test!

(Point me in the right direction if I've missed a new thread)

So sorry to hear that @DoctorBambino and @Fran2020 ttc is rubbish

CD25 AFTER my chemical pregnancy and I think I finally got my peak on an OPK, I’ve not used them for a few days and decided to pee on on this morning. Literally no idea what my cycle is doing.. AF was due 27th but now I’ve only just had a peak it’s saying AF will be due on 9th would take me to a 41 day cycle 😫 I’m always usually 28-30. This chemical pregnancy has hugely messed my cycle up.. just really trying to switch off from it tbh.

@1992EM Hope you’re getting on ok lovely!

@dinosaurus86 Glad you are feeling ok today and I still have everything crossed it is implantation and not AF!!

@doctorbambino sorry that you think AF is on her way and your BFN. POAS is shit

@Fran2020 Im gutted for you that AF has arrived . Hopefully the doctors phone back soon and you can get some next steps in place

14 dpo and BFP! I'm worried that it's a bit faint for so late in my cycle and I had a tiny amount of spotting earlier :/

@Littlebee1990 I'm so so sorry your cycle is playing up. Look after yourself and try again after (if) AF comes. Sending baby dust x

@Nottherealslimshady I AM SO BLIMMING HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!

@littlebee1990 sorry to hear your cycle is messed up 😔 hopefully you will catch your peak and get a BFP soon 💕.

@nottherealslimshady Massive congratulations , that is definitely a BFP 💕

Thank you guys. I'm so scared! DH doesn't think it's dark enough and I had a bit of spotting earlier, I wasnt even going to take the test because of the spotting. God I'll be gutted if it goes.

It looks pretty good to me @Nottherealslimshady! I have everything crossed that it will stick for you!

@Littlebee1990 so pleased that it looks like you finally have your peak. So frustrating but hopefully things getting back on track for you.

@Nottherealslimshady crossing everything really tight for you and sending lots of sticky baby dust ✨💕
Yay for the OPK @Littlebee1990 ! Hopefully things will settle down for you soon.

@DoctorBambino @Fran2020 sorry to hear about AF! always such a bummer. ☹️
@Nottherealslimshady well it's definitely positive! 🎉 are you going to keep testing everyday to see if it darkens?
@Littlebee1990 at least you got a positive OPK now and can monitor where your cycle is at from here on!

Wish I had more to report for myself! 9 dpo and the left side twinges have mostly subsided now. Kind of want to test on an IC tomorrow but I think that might be too early.

Thank you all :)

Still got tiny amounts of spotting, I'm so anxious that it'll turn into AF.

@Kalecat I've got a digital to use tomorrow morning, then I've got a weeks one that I'll probably wait till monday to use. God I hope it sticks 🤞

@kalecat I am the same. Any twinges have stopped now. I had a sore back this morning but could have been the way I slept as fine now. I am just extremely tired. Napped again today for 2 hours. Just aswell I am not back at work yet 🤣.
@nottherealslimshady I am so excited for you. Sending lots of sticky dust to keep that wee bean stuck 💕. Was AF due today?

@1992EM I'm not back to work yet either... leaves a lot of time in the day to be bored while OH works. I just watch BFP YouTube videos the whole TWW and hope my turn is next 😂

I hope your spotting goes away @Nottherealslimshady. I’ve also been spotting this afternoon. Grr. I feel very periody.

Hi everyone, I haven't been on here for a while because I've been trying really hard not let ttc fully consume me so took a couple of weeks off. Just had a full catch up though and loved reading how everyone has been getting on.

@nottherealslimshady omg congrats! Keep us posted with how your testing goes tomorrow!

I am CD27 today and have had some spotting so think AF will be here soon. I am totally gutted to be honest. I'm starting to really get stressed about it. If it's not happened for us yet, when is it going to happen??? We have been TTC since I came off the pill in October and I am 30 in a couple of months and am tempted to make a gp appointment just to see if they can suggest anything or do some sort of tests. About a year ago I went to the drs because I was so tired all of the time, fall asleep on the sofa every night, would fall asleep at the cinema etc haha anyway they done a blood test and found by b12 was low which when I looked into it I do have a lot of symptoms of low b12 so were going to start me on the injections but they tested again and my b12 had increased so nothing was done. I think i might ring about that as an excuse to talk about ttc as they probably won't see me as it hasn't been 12 month yet.

Hope everyone is ok x

@dogmam Sorry to hear you think AF is on her way 😔 I would absolutely get the b12 checked out. It impacts folic acid if too low as well. Insist you want a jag or pills depending on what type you have. It makes such a difference to your everyday life. I also bought folic acid and b12 supplement from amazon for around £4 for 60 . I take that with pregnecare just to make sure I definitely have enough of both. It is water soluble so if you have too much it will just come out anyway. Spinach, cereals, fish, red meat are all good natural b12 foods. I have found doctors often dismiss b12 however it can have a massive impact on your lifestyle . I had no energy, slept all the time , my skin was terrible, my hair started to fall out and I was so pale. This was at its worst . Everything got better when it finally was managed properly 🙌

@kalecat I have managed to fill most of my days so far to try take my mind of ttc. I find myself scrolling through threads here or googling symptoms even though I know myself everything could be related to AF anyway and even if I tested early I wouldn't accept it until after AF was due 🙈.

@1992EM my apps disagreed after I ovulated late but AF was either 2 days ago or today. Not been feeling AFy at all.

Thank you all for your lovely messages, still a tiny amount of spotting but less than this morning and having some very low cramps. Fingers crossed it sticks

@dogmam sorry you think AF is on her way, hoping next month is yours.

@Dinosaurus86 could be a good thing, when are you due?

Is anyone else testing soon?

@nottherealslimshady oh that's good news . 💕

@DoctorBambino @1992EM @Dinosaurus86 @Littlebee1990 @Kalecat
AF definitely arrived today so cycle 14 now! I've been feeling sad especially as I seemed to have different symptoms this time. Trying to keep positive though but it's hard 😔

The doctors called me back and I am going in on Tuesday for her to check my cervix and do some swabs. She'll also referring me for a scan and to the fertility clinic for HSG (but there's a bit of a backlog for there). Feel good to be doing something though! Hopefully get my partners semen analysis back early next week too.

@Nottherealslimshady Congratulations! 😭Sending lots of positive thoughts!

@Fran2020 I am so sorry. Good the doctors have got the ball rolling with things and fingers crossed you get some answers. Sending lots of positive thoughts and take care 💕

I’m due on Monday @Nottherealslimshady so I guess there is some hope. It just feels like it’ll turn into af any minute...

My cramps are so bad the pain has woken me up

@dinosaurus86 Oh no. I hope you are ok 😔.

@Dinosaurus86 ah I'm sorry ☹️ that's the worst. I always get terrible cramps on CD1.
