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.

@mrswilso congratulations. What an amazing line💕

@kalecat hopefully you get a definite answer in the next few days.

@littlebee1990 I am so sorry. I really hope this turns out well . You must be so worried 💕

@mrswilso aw amazing news that's a fab line. You must be so chuffed. How long were you trying for?

@kalecat I can see something on the cheap one. Fingers crossed for you

@littlebee1990 I've replied to you on the May 2021 thread but didn't want to read and run on here. Thinking of you xx

Aah thank you so much girls 💕
This is cycle 6 off the pill @Whilstwewait
It's also been my least restrictive, most relaxed cycle too - although I've stayed off caffeine and kept my fruit and veg intake up.
We timed DTD really well (by accident - I tried to take the pressure off of him this month too) and I did hips up under a pillow in fertile week.
Now to hope and pray little bub sticks ✨

Yes! @mrswilso congratulations! 💕

Wishing all the best @Littlebee1990 for your little one x

I do see lines @Kalecat hoping they get darker 🤞

@mrswilso ahhh amazing!! So pleased for you! Did you follow SMEP or anything or literally just DTD around ovulation?

@littlebee1990 I'm really sorry you're going through such a crap time. I hope you and your other half can look after each other during this next two weeks. Have you told any of your family?

@kalecat I can see something on the IC, when is AF due?

CD4 here and have started listening to the BFN podcast which is really interesting and quite funny, it's kept me entertained whilst walking the dog anyway!

Hope everyone is ok x

Thank you @Nottherealslimshady @dogmam 🥰
I didn't follow it to the letter - but we did managed three days before peak, day before peak and day of peak and DTD whenever we fancied in between - until three days after ovulation. Since then I've been a bit less interested 🤣

Thank you all.
I’ve told my mum and also told my dad (they’re not together) it’s really not how I dreamt of telling them.. twice ☹️

I’ve moved my early scan to 29th September so my partner will he with me, if it’s bad news I want to know together and not alone on the 6th x

@littlebee1990 I have everything crossed for you and glad your partner can be there with you.

I am 10dpo absolutely no symptoms of AF or anything else . AF is due on Saturday so think ill wait to see if AF shows before testing.

@Littlebee1990 I have absolutely everything crossed for you! 🤞💓

Congrats to mrswilso :)

Oh no Littlebee. It's 2 weeks of survival mode/getting through the days now really as how can you possibly not worry!

Went to look at my tests from yesterday and it seems 11dpo has dried positive. I'm so confused with this cycle lol. Just want a clear answer

@kalecat I see it 👍I would give it 2 days and test again x

11dpo and have spotting or more like a tiny dot when I wipe. 2 days before AF so think I'm probably out 😔

@1992EM I'm sorry, its so shit. I currently have AF and still not over the dissapointment that yet again it hasn't happened. Hope you're ok.

@dogmam thanks , to be honest I just expect AF now . Not much coming of it the last 2 times I've been but feels like she is coming soon and knackered today too which is always a sign . Least I didn't waste any tests as will no doubt wake up to heavy bleeding .

Spotting only happened twice and has stopped . Nothing at all today so tested but BFN so think I am definitely out for this month 😔

Can't even believe it. Either I had another chemical or was getting false positives. AF came today and my wedding is tomorrow..... so upset.

I’m so sorry ladies that AF is arrived, honestly this TTC is shit. I should be happy that I’m “pregnant” but I’m convinced the nurse was trying to prepare me for the worst and my scan on Tuesday will be bad news. I’m barely functioning other than googling it constantly, I can’t quite believe it’s looking like it’ll be 2 miscarriages in 4 months. I really hope I go Tuesday and she was wrong but I think I’m hoping for a miracle. One of my friends announced she’s pregnant and I just cried to my boyfriend all night.. sorry, I’m not dealing with this well as you can all probably tell! X

@kalecat I’m so so sorry and I hope that you manage to have a special wedding day still, I’m feeling hopeful for your first cycle as a married couple ❤️

@littlebee1990 I really hope Tuesday brings good news. Pregnancy announcements are so difficult to hear and you are completely within your rights to feel how you do. It must be so upsetting and stressful 💕

@kalecat I am so sorry AF has arrived 😔. I hope you have an amazing wedding day tomorrow 💕

My spotting stopped and nothing since. AF is due tomorrow so will see . I keep running to the toilet thinking AF has started but nothing. 12 dpo and holding onto a little hope the spotting yesterday was just old blood but I know i am clutching at straws and will not be surprised if AF appears in the morning.

Hey, I went a bit quiet after once this thread started as unfortunately AF turned up and then we decided to buy our family home instead!

Almost three months on and we are still waiting for Nationwide buuuuut we are hoping for exchange/completion next month which means I can then join you lovely ladies again 👍🏻

@Littlebee1990 My fingers are crossed that everything is okay! My close friend has just announced she's pregnant and if everything had gone to plan in June we would be due at the same time.

@1992EM I hope AF doesn't show tomorrow for you lovely!

@Kalecat Im so sorry lovely, I hope you have a wonderful wedding tomorrow 💕

@smushty14 Thank you 💕Congratulations on your new house 💕 i hope your next cycle is a lucky one . So hard seeing those around you announcing pregnancies . One day it will be us.

@1992EM Thanks lovely!

When my close friend announced to the WhatsApp group I literally balled my eyes out for hours 🙈

Don't get me wrong, I'm so happy for them! I'm sure you get what I mean though 😊

I have a countdown on until we complete and I'm so excited to throw the pill packet away!

Thank you ladies!
@Smushty14 We complete on Wednesday, I’m so scared we’ve bought our dream family home and it’s forever going to be the 2 of us in it. More googling tonight and I’m pretty certain that nothing good can come of a baby having a very slow heart rate but I’ll update Tuesday after my scan x

@smushty14 I totally get it . It's so hard . I do hold on to the fact that we never really know how long others have been trying before they announce they are pregnant and hopefully one day it will be us.

@littlebee1990 I really hope all is well 💕

AF still hasn't arrived. I was convinced it would be here when I woke up . Woke up at 4 convinced she was and nothing. No doubt she will surprise me when I least expect it today. I haven't tested and won't until tomorrow if she is still not here.

@fran2020 how are things ? 💕
