Think I have a very faint positive!!! No more tests left 🙈 waiting for dh to get home for his verdict, it's a squinter 🙈😬

Franklydear · 29/08/2020 19:15

Hello, dh and ds are playing minecraft to deestress for the evening so I thought I catch up, I know I said I’ll go off line but I am bored.
@Minster2012, little update, af seems to be on the way, not enough blood to call it a period, hardly anything on pad, but too much for spotting, I think, frustrating, if I don’t get a proper bleed I’ll test Tuesday just to see, symptoms haven’t changed much, and no cramps, so this is a new level of weird,
@lucyrp really hoping for a negative, with the weather turning lots of bugs are around, feel better, queen
I am calling today cd 1, but who knows really, new af due date 24 September, pencil in @Juno231, is it really stupid that I am hoping this is a first trimester bleed, even if I know it isn’t ?

lucyrp · 29/08/2020 19:26

@Minster2012 thank you I need lots of hugs at the moment !

@SmileyT thank you, il geg my results on Monday or should do so an interesting bank holiday weekend at home for me! 😅x

@Hopeful110 thank you. I have everything crossed too😂 I don't feel any different to when I'm normally ill if not slightly better but I had a fever and have a cough so had to get a test for work.

@Vil10 I've said to my friends now that we're not trying anymore as we physically can't do anything. We're not not trying but we're not actively trying as I can't track with OPKs as I just get no difference in lines and I'd have to do it every day for like 2.5 months and we're not even having that much sex at the moment because I think OH feels like it's pointless at the moment which has kind of made us look our sex drive momentarily!

@Florence13 thank you. Il keep you updated x

@Franklydear im hoping it's just a cold that's going round as I know a few people who have had it 🙈

LaceyMermaid · 29/08/2020 19:28

@Franklydear sorry to hear that, fingers crossed it’ll go! I’m having a lot of cramping and a long with my bfn yesterday I’m not feeling too hopeful!

Franklydear · 29/08/2020 19:49

@LaceyMermaid I don’t know what to think, I’ve been wearing a pad all day, when probably a panty liner would do, and last toilet visit, nada, not even on paper, tomorrow I am walking all day around Stonehenge so will wear a pad, for peace of mind, but... can this be a period? I’ve had them pretty light before but seems quite a bit for spotting

Disclaimer: I’ve warned you about psycho tendencies

LaceyMermaid · 29/08/2020 19:52

@Franklydear it’s ok all the best people have psycho tendencies! Sounds a bit odd for sure so I wouldn’t count it as AF unless it gets going. 🤞🏻 for you

LaceyMermaid · 29/08/2020 19:54

@lucyrp fingers crossed for you, I had two tests 🙈 due to symptoms when we were in lockdown and I was working and they came back really quickly!

Franklydear · 29/08/2020 19:56

@LaceyMermaid, I’m freaking out because I’ve been spotting for about 24 hours, not all the times, but a couple of wipes quite heavy, very very very little on pad even overnight, a thin 2 inches line...

Franklydear · 29/08/2020 19:58

@lucyrp I’ve also had a test when I needed to go to hospital for test, as Covid symptoms are the same as asthma symptoms, and they wanted to know, very easy and very quick

lucyrp · 29/08/2020 20:01

@Franklydear @LaceyMermaid I did it myself and now worried I didn't do it correctly as I didn't tilt my head back to put it up my nose I just put it up as far as it could go which was like an inch which is what it said on the instructions 🤷🏼‍♀️🙈

DKDK123 · 29/08/2020 20:39

Hope you've got lots of choc either way @Hopeful110, the not knowing 100% and having that glimmer of hope alongside the sinking feeling is horrible, that was me last week so sending you big hugs. If it makes you feel any better about obsessive testing, I did another one today even tho AF is here just incase it was one of those small percentage that still bleed while pregnant 🙈 it was negative as I knew it would be but I just had to double check. And finally threw all the bfp tests in the bin so I'd stop going back to look at them. Ttc journey makes you do crazy things 😂

@StrawberriCream keeping everything crossed for you, hope you get another test done soon and see that faint turn into a nice fat line.

How frustrating @Franklydear, hope you get answers soon either way. And no its not stupid hoping its a first trimester bleed, see above where I said I did the exact same and did a test despite bleeding.....just incase!

Hoping your covid test comes back negative @lucyrp and hope you're feeling a bit better soon.

I've actually had a lovely weekend with DH while DS is at his grans house. We went out for lunch and dinner, bought bikes and went for a cycle (OH new fitness idea definitely not mine 😂) hubby has been so attentive and supportive after the CP that I'm now raring to go and try again and FW isnt coming round soon enough.

LaceyMermaid · 29/08/2020 20:46

@lucyrp I really wouldn’t worry about not going too far up, my youngest was admitted to hosptial in June and they did his for him and they barely even did up his nose - certainly not the to ramming i’d given mine when I did my own to try to follow the instructions!
@Franklydear sounds more like spotting to me if you’re only needing to wipe really

Juno231 · 29/08/2020 20:48

@lucyrp hm when they do it to you they go really far I think - anyone I know who's had it said it felt like it was going into their brains lol. Got all my fingers crossed it's not the rona though 🤞

@StrawberriCream aah keep us posted 🤞

@Franklydear of course it's not crazy, you're talking to the woman who's done pregnancy tests on like CD3/4 before just in case it wasn't really a period 🤦‍♀️

OP posts:
lucyrp · 29/08/2020 20:54

@Juno231 yeah I know I was really nervous for it because I've heard the same but on the instructions it says to go an inch up your nostril or until you feel a resistance 🤷🏼‍♀️ which is what I did and it just made me sneeze and my eyes water so god knows

@LaceyMermaid im hoping I don't have it as I'm sure DS will not like having me stick a swab up his nose and he defo won't sit still for long enough 😂

Franklydear · 29/08/2020 20:54

@Juno231 @LaceyMermaid @DKDK123 thank you ladies, making me feel better, I didn’t bring any test on purpose, so I’ll enjoy the weekend away, I can’t test until Tuesday, I might report back tomorrow evening, no promises
@Juno231 that can be your next tittle, no promises, it feels that way to me...

LaceyMermaid · 29/08/2020 20:56

@lucyrp that’s fine then, if it made your eyes water you went far enough 🤣 fingers crossed it’ll be ok for you. I was glad nurse did it for my son even though he’s 11! To be honest though he was so ill he didn’t even care!

Minster2012 · 29/08/2020 21:00

Just a tiny catch up from me to send hugs mainly to those that need, @Franklydear totally understandable.i had that. It's still spotting, that's what I got told, if it's only there when wiping & not enough for a pad it's classed as spotting. Total head fuck & deserved of psycho tendencies. Stick with us gorgeous sending all the love.

Also to @lucyrp, you will have done it right & I hope it negative, but that you feel better. Again totally understandable the drop in sex drive for you and mr fucking fantastic when you both feel like your body is fucking with you. Maybe we need a naughty girls at the back thread where we actually don't bother with talking about TTC??

So on that note I drank a lot of Prosecco last night, listened to music VERY loudly at midnight reliving my youth a bit (sorry neighbours), see pic 1 & 2
& today in York showed off my new Doc Martens (see pic 3)

@StrawberriCream congratulations 🥳

Busybee143 · 29/08/2020 21:06

@Franklydear I've just had a 'period' before my bfp, it was similar to a period, started light got a little heavier then tailed off however the whole thing was also 95% lighter than my period and was only brown and pink if that makes sense. It lasted 7 days and I'm 5+1 today. I've got everything crossed for you!!!!

lucyrp · 29/08/2020 21:20

@LaceyMermaid I'm hoping it's negative otjetwise my worl will have to close for two weeks because I've been in contact with absolutely everyone in my work place and so has everyone else who works there. Someone else at work is being tested too as she has similar to me 😬🙈

@Minster2012 we did it today but it was just a quick bend over the bed job and didn't last very long as it had been like 5 days since we'd done it last 😂 love the docs! My friend bought my fur lined docs for my birthday 😍

DKDK123 · 29/08/2020 21:55

Loving the snazzy shoes @Minster2012! 😍

Katao · 29/08/2020 21:55

@lucyrp hope you are ok. Feel better soon.

@Franklydear ya another one here who has tested despite bleeding. I think we all live in hope that its not actually af. Fingers crossed for you that you are not out. Enjoy the weekend.

@Juno231 for sake of giving a test date for the next thread I'm going to take a random guess and say sept 19th. That would be cd29 so if I get that far that seems a fair enough time to test 🤷‍♀️

Minster2012 · 29/08/2020 22:01

Doesn't matter if it doesn't last long @lucyrp! Ooo love fur lined nice n snuggly!! I've got a few pairs of docs I've gotta say 🥰😘DH thinks I've gone mad, they make me smile 🙂

Thank you @DKDK123

We are watching a fun old film called "the man that would be king" it's from 1975 & bloody good and quite a comedy actually!! Sean Connery, Michael Caine, & Michael caines wife!

Mrsi2020 · 29/08/2020 22:03

@Franklydear the best bit about this forum I’ve ever seen is your disclaimer 🤣 were with you hun!

All crossed that it’s a first tri bleed xxxx

Minster2012 · 29/08/2020 22:10

Oh and my test date will be either the 7th Oct or 9th Oct so il def back of the bus still 🤷‍♀️too

Franklydear · 30/08/2020 04:46

I can’t sleep, ladies, btw, no night bleeding, clean pad, I was thinking in my insomnia, where are our same sex couples? I can’t remember the usernames, but we haven’t have much insemination talk lately....
Did I say I have an all day walking day tomorrow? Fuck sake, I’ve been awake for an hour...
