August Testing Pond (Follow on from 24th-4th July) thread 3

We’re nearly full so made us another thread!

How is everyone?

I’m 6DPO CD31.. going to be a 40+ day cycle.. as if 30 doesn’t feel long enough!! Nothing to report aside from that.

@kalecat I am going to test on Friday as working from home then. I don't want the disappointment before having to go to work for the day 🤣

I am feeling horrific tonight , really sicky . Praying it isn't a bug 🙏

Really hoping to see some BFP this week ladies! Tested again before I go to bed and it’s got darker and I’ve had the usual ovulation pain in my left side so I think it’s happening! DTD today, yesterday, Sunday, Friday and Wednesday and will also do tomorrow and Friday to be safe.. 🤞🏼This means it’ll be a 34 day cycle for me and AF will be due around 10th September x

Sorry you’re probably all so bored of me but FINALLY! This is absolute proof that apps can be very wrong, finally got my peak 6 days later than suggested X

That’s great news @Littlebee1990!

Yes! That's fantastic news @Littlebee1990

I think my line is darker today, I did think maybe this test was rubbish and was giving me evap lines but I tested one with water and it gave a BFN so I think that's a good sign? Still only 10dpo today.

SMU! so excited

@nottherealslimshady ahhh brilliant news !!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

@Nottherealslimshady So so so happy for you! 🤞🏼😍🌈

Thankyou so much guys 💕 I really feel more positive about this, it feels like it's really there 🤞🤞

Anything you did different @Nottherealslimshady!? Tell us your tips! X

@Littlebee1990 tbh I did less. I drank caffeine and alcohol before I ovulated. I only LH tested in mornings, I ate junk. We didn't worry too much about DTD every day (but still made sure we hit ovulation). Last time I did everything perfect and still lost it at 6 weeks.
You're awesome and there's nothing more you could do, you'll get your BFP soon I'm sure ❤

Looks good @Nottherealslimshady!!

I feel really sick today so naturally am frantically googling the rare occasions where women still have a period in early pregnancy

Aww @Nottherealslimshady you’re so sweet, honestly so happy for you, can’t wait to see that digital confirming it soon!

@Dinosaurus86 Don’t worry.. we’ve all done that! My friend had a bleed every month during her second pregnancy!!

Annoying my late ovulation will obviously push AF back.. she was due before holiday but now she’s due during! We’re away 3-13th.. AF is due around the 11th now, don’t know what to do about testing as there’s a hot tub and gin and I don’t wanna use it and affect possible implantation! I think I’ll try and avoid it for the first few days and then test early (around 7th) and if a BFN which will be 11DPO then I know I’m likely out.. x

@littlebee1990 so glad you got your peak .

@nottherealslimshady What an amazing line. Massive congratulations 💕

I keep thinking AF has started but just discharge like when you ovulate. Never had that before AF but not so hopeful that AF won't start. I had a strange pulling /cramp that made stop what I was doing to sit down. It wasn't sore just took me by surprise. No idea what it was . Going to test in the morning and will no doubt see a BFN 🙈.

Fingers crossed @1992EM!

Thankyou @Littlebee1990 that sounds like a good plan. You could get some non-alcoholic versions of what you drink to feel like you're still enjoying it. Non alcoholic kopparberg is awesome! I have everything crossed for you this month!

@1992EM thank you :) those sound like good symptoms, sending baby dust for tomorrow!

No need to test. AF has arrived 😔

I'm so so sorry @1992EM

Argh @1992EM I’m so sorry, treat yourself to something nice this weekend ❤️

@1992EM so sorry to hear that, take some time to do something nice for yourself xx

@nottherealslimshady ahhh so pleased for you!! And it's great that you are feeling positive. Good to know you were more chilled about things this month, loads of people say that and maybe that's the trick x

@nottherealslimshady @annaposie @littlebee1990 thank you 💕

Only at 12 dpo so a bit concerned that is too short but have just read below 10 is only considered to be short. Anyway onwards and upwards. Onto the next one. Lots track of what month I am on now. Either 5 or 6 x

Congrats @Nottherealslimshady !!
Sorry to hear that @1992EM hope you’re ok.

After getting my hopes up slightly with what I thought might be implantation cramps last week, AF is due Sunday and I have all my usual PMS symptoms so fairly sure I’m out this month. September is the month 🤞🏼

@Amelia891 Thank you 💕 I hope AF stays away for you but if not the September is a good month 👍

Ah, so sorry @1992EM I was hopeful for you 🤍.
I'm expecting AF tomorrow, which is unfortunately my bachelorette party day 🙄. OH and I are getting married 26 September, however we are still going to TTC in about 2 weeks. Not sure what I will say if I cannot drink on my wedding day. That's a pretty hard day to make up a lie lol.
