The Pact - Who cares what month it is anymore..?

[MrsB2019x]

New thread for the Pact girls! 💙

Thanks ladies, so sorry to keep going on and on 🙈. I think you probably feel my crazy pain through all of this though. I guess it's hard when you can't share it all with people around you just yet, and whilst I am sharing some parts with my partner I am trying to not let him see just how crazy I really am lol 😂.

I'm pretty certain I was right on my ovulation date (within a day or so anyway) as I used ovulation strips, I track bbt, and I usually get sore boobs as soon as ovulation happens. If I am out by a few days though I could be as early as 13/14dpo potentially (instead of 16dpo as I think I am) and that would explain the 1-2 weeks on the digital as well I guess

I think tomorrow I'll do one last frer and digital with second urine of the day and if they look good I'll ditch any more testing and attempt to relax and see what happens! (Famous last words eh!!)

@SS123456 - you won't go up to 2-3 weeks on a digital until you're 5 weeks or more plus, they're really not reliable - remember they'll be relying on hCG levels rather than how many days post ovulation you are. hCG starts off at different levels for everyone when pregnant (hence why some people get earlier results and others don't - that isn't just implantation).

@SS123456 did you get your first BFP on Monday?

I've just checked and the clear blue indicator for 2-3 weeks say your levels have to be between 120-4400 to get that result. If your levels were c25 on Monday - to get a clear blue positive, they wouldn't be much higher than 100 if they're doubling every 48 hours.

@kirinm thank you so much, that makes complete sense 😁. I need to try and relax I think! 🙈

@kirinm yes the bpf was monday

I totally get the anxiety and those FRER's probably didn't help at all. Just remember the levels start out low (I think 5 is "pregnant") and rising every 48 hours doesn't make the levels very high until you're a bit further along.

Thank you @kirinm I really appreciate it 😊❤️. I am so hoping we get a few more bfp on here too soon 🤞🏻. When is everyone else ovulating/testing?

@ss123456 step away from the tests 😂 they're definitely getting darker! 1-2 weeks is from conception rather than from your last period so should go up to 2-3 in the next few days x

@SS123456 we are here for whatever helps you 😁 it makes all of us crazy!

@SS123456

Thank you *@kirinm* I really appreciate it 😊❤️. I am so hoping we get a few more bfp on here too soon 🤞🏻. When is everyone else ovulating/testing?

I'm 4dpo and I have A LOT of tests in the flat so I wouldn't put it past me to start testing at 7dpo. I don't even think I can pretend otherwise tbh.

@Sansa87 @whambam89 I know I'm crazy aren't I 😂, I'm stepping away! Thank you though, it does mean a lot to have your support!

@kirinm 😂 at least you are embracing the craziness! I normally try and get to at least 9dpo, not sure I've done quite as early as 7dpo! Not long to wait for you now though 😁🤞🏻

Oh and I was thinking the '1-2 weeks' was 1-2 weeks pregnant (i.e from CD 1) so that makes so much more sense now!! I wonder if they have changed these over the years. I am sure when I used them with my DS (9 years ago) they were actual weeks of pregnancy rather than weeks since conception as I got a '3-4' on the day my period was due

Do you girls remember when the point of the pact was we wouldn’t be testing early, and we are all the absolute worst 🙈😂

I think I've made it to 12dpo before testing once 🙄

@MrsB2019x 😂😂

@MrsB2019x although technically I am now testing late. I don't know what's worse 😂

@MrsB2019x 😂😂😂😂 we are the worse I tested at 10dpo xxx

Another of my antenatal group is pregnant. That is 5 out of 8! I was feeling pretty negative about our chances this month and generally and this just makes it worse. I hate feeling like this.

I'm totally happy for them but I know pretty much everyone is trying and it won't be long until I'm the only one who isn't. And I don't know how I'll cope with that.

@kirinm I completely related to this, it is such a horrible lonely feeling isn't it 😔. I'm always hear for a chat x

Here*

@kirinm can also relate - 2/6 of our group are pregnant and everyone else is trying... I dread being the last!

@kirinm big hugs. I can relate. Apart from one girl who doesn’t want kids, I’m the last to fall pregnant. I started trying over 10 years ago and have watched so many girls I went to school with get my dream again, & again.

Allow yourself to be sad, you’re entitled to it xx

Can relate, although don’t have any antenatal group to relate to but it does feel like everybody is getting pregnant!

Couldn't make it up. Another one has announced!
