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

[Littlebee1990]

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.

@AnnaPosie If you got the dark line and also a positive on CB that means you will ovulate within the next 48 hours.. DTD this morning and tomorrow if didn’t manage last night! X

Good Luck @AnnaPosie 🤞🏼

Congrats @SamiBo! My cramps are ok, they were never super intense, just like mild AF cramps. They are definitely easing off but I’ve still got a bit of a lower back ache. Just worried me a bit as I do not remember having any kind of AF/cramp feelings when I was pregnant with DD1. How are your cramps now?

@Littlebee1990 love your encouragement. DTD quick!! 😂

@Amelia891 aww good that sounds like positive progress. Mine have eased too and turned into more like the mild background ache I get usually throughout my period. The bleeding seems to have stopped this morning too which is a relief. I did call my gp for a bit of advice but she just said there’s no way to know until I test again in a couple of weeks to make sure all is still progressing. 🤷‍♀️

Hey, I hope you are all well? I've taken some time off MN to focus on things. Plus I have now been referred to Gynae (as well as the fertility clinic) because of my ultrasound results.

@Amelia891 @SamiBo Congratulations!

@fran2020 I hope you are keeping well and your gynae appointment goes well 💕.
@samibo congratulations 💕
@AnnaPosie I hope you managed to dtd and get your bfp soon.
@Littlebee1990 good luck in your tww . I have everything crossed that this will be your month . I hope you have a loveky break away.

I am in the no man's land just now. CD9 ovulation expected between CD14 and CD18 so will see when it will be this month. opks are light . OH is taking vitamins and has started going to gym . I am also taking vitamins, shakes etc and going for walks . I have read that regular activity can help so here's hoping. If anything ttc will get me healthier 🤣. x

AF ended yesterday, now the boring part of the cycle. Ovulation expected on the 15th. OH and I get married in exactly 3 weeks from today, so at least that is keeping my mind busy!

@kalecat what a lovely anniversary present that would be 💕

Hey everyone! 9DPO here and thankfully we’re away so I’m not tempted to test just yet... had a few vinos last night and I’ve woken up feeling rougher than I deserve!!
Don’t have any symptoms tbh, not even been able to symptom spot because I’ve had absolutely nothing.. not even any usual pre AF signs, perhaps it’s because we’ve been busy I’ve not been able to sit there and google every single thing my body does 🤣🙈

@Fran2020 I think a break away from sites and socials is never a bad thing, I’m so sorry to hear the results require further investigations but I hope this means you’re closer to a BFP and being well looked after and will have some answers soon ❤️

@1992EM Thank you for your kind wishes.. I hope so too! Great to hear you’re looking after yourself and got your partner on the vitamins, wishing you lots of baby dust for this cycle.

@Kalecat Glad AF has gone and wishing you a wonderful wedding for 3 weeks time, let’s hope the distraction keeps you busy and results in a BFP!

@littlebee1990 thank you x

@Littlebee1990 I have absolutely everything crossed for you! X

@littlebee1990 best of luck ♥️♥️♥️

10DPO. Ladies I’m petrified, can’t get excited. It’s got colour in real life. My god please don’t let this end like the last one. 🤞🏼❤️ I’ve had ZERO symptoms.

I’ll test again in a few days but avoid the booze from today as we’re away. Will keep you all posted xx

@littlebee1990 congratulations 💕 i have everything crossed this one is a sticky bean 🥰

@Littlebee1990 congratulations. Just remember its a different pregnancy, different sperm and different egg so no reason it should end the same. I had no symptoms until 14 DPO and got my positive on day 12 but I'd have had it before had i tested as was pretty dark x

Thank you ladies. Had a good chat with my partner this morning and feel lots better, taking the attitude that right now we’ve had a positive test, hopefully in a few days it’ll be darker and hopefully it’ll lead to a baby in our arms, if it doesn’t then it’ll be our second loss in 3 months so I hope to be able to obtain some medical advice from somewhere if that’s the case. However right now we will take the positive as it is and hope for a good outcome 🤞🏼❤️

@Littlebee1990 I'm so excited for you!! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean ❤

@littlebee1990 ahhh I'm sooo pleased this has happened for you!!!!! Positive thoughts xx

@nottherealslimshady how are you getting on?

How is everyone doing? I had a positive OPK yesterday (sunday) so dtd last night and night before. Realllly hope I can join you girls who have got your bfp xx

Thank you all so so much, I don’t know when to test again, it’s still SO early AF due Friday so I could’ve set myself up for a fall...

@Nottherealslimshady How are you doing? Have you booked an early scan?

@Littlebee1990 wait 48 hours at least before testing again you don't want to be obsessing over lines or wait until Friday. Easier said than done though x

ahh congratulations @Littlebee1990! I know you will be nervous but I have everything crossed for you - and enjoy your time away!

Sorry I've been quiet on here. Needed to have a bit of a break and both DP and I have also been ill over the last week. I thought this month would end up being a write-off because of it or ovulation delayed as I didn't get a flashing smiley until cd14 (usually get it cd 11/12). However, then I immediately got the static as usual on cd15 (Saturday). In the midst of the sickness we did manage to dtd cd 14 and 16. Now cd17 so 1dpo (I think). I've got DP started on zinc tablets and have also been giving myself a very rudimentary form of Mayan fertility massage. So we'll see if that makes any difference!

I'm sorry to hear that you need further investigations from your scan @Fran2020, but good that you are in the system so positive action can be taken.

I hope everyone else is getting on ok!

@Littlebee1990 @dogmam I'm doing ok, thank you for asking. I'm at the same point today as I was when I started miscarrying so a bit nervous, looking forward to reaching 6 weeks and I'll be booking an early scan for 8 weeks Just trying to stay positive. Super nauseous and boobs are very painful 😂

Hoping we'll all have babies next summer!

Aaaaah @Littlebee1990 🌈💕 I've got everything crossed for you and a sticky little bean!

@dinosaurus86 ah sounds like despite you and your other half being unwell, you still managed to dtd when it counted so I think you are in with a chance for sure this month, good luck!

@nottherealslimshady understandable that you are comparing to last month and today has probably felt like a bit of a hurdle but this is a new pregnancy and no reason why it should happen again, I have everything crossed for you!

@littlebee1990 suppose it would be best to wait until Thursday or even Friday to test again but I'm sure you will be tempted to test again tomorrow, either way, best of luck girl! Keep us updated x

That’s totally understandable @Nottherealslimshady but it sounds like things are progressing well. An early scan sounds like a good idea!
