TESTING TRAIN!! Who else is with me?

[hereforthefood]

So I'm looking for ladies who are nearing the end of their cycle, will be testing soon, and want to support each other!😁

As an intro: Hi! Im 23 and on month 2 of TTC #1, I'm currently on CD30 of a 32 day cycle. Exciting things to note for this month are that on CD27 I experienced a gush of bright red blood and have had nothing else since so I'm thinking this could be implantation! Also, for the past 2 days my cervix has been high and soft so I'm taking this as a very good sign!

How is everyone else doing?😁

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary omg I've just read through this completely shocked, that's insane that they'd do that but I also know the feeling of the line just going dead!! At least you got a blood test for tomorrow, do you know when you'd get the results?

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary just read the update! That's a great sign!! I'm sure you'll be fine and the bean is perfectly happy in there😊

[PinkFizz1]

@hereforthefood I know what you mean! They are so expensive.

@maggiegary Wow I was exhausted just reading about your day so far - can't imagine how you're feeling! It's good that you managed to get a blood test for tomorrow. Just read your latest update and that sounds promising. Fingers crossed for you. X

[maggiegary]

Okay so, bottom are last night and this morning but I'm not sure which is which. And top two are just now. They are getting darker. I know they're faint but I didn't get anything like a positive on these until a few days after my digital positive....

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary girl you have DYE STEALERS!!!! I wouldn't be panicking at all if I was in your shoes!

[hereforthefood]

So I've just looked at this again and I think I got confused, the really dark line isn't the test line, it's the control line, right? In that case your lines are still good @maggiegary, but I'd definitely be badgering the doctors until they checked you out, what time is your appointment today?

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood yes they're the control lines 🙈

Ive had a blood test with the nurse so we will see what that says soon

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary fingers crossed everything comes back normal!

I'm now 13dpo (I think) with potential implantation on 9dpo. I've been reading about so many women testing positive on 13dpo and it's taking everything in me not to test! I don't want to waste my second to last test too early and I've also already been to the loo today (although not since 9am ish) - what do we think ladies? Should I test or wait?

[sak96x]

I think that it looks promising and that you should test! @hereforthefood x

[hereforthefood]

@sak96x BFN another faint indent on a FRER which I'm not pleased with tbh. It initially had some colour too which really threw me for a loop but now it's settled into nothing. Really unsure what's going on with my body tbh and only got one FRER left. Might wait another week before testing again if AF doesn't show up soon :/

[toadstool32]

Onwards and upwards for next month op

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood I'm sorry 😞 hopefully things will sort themselves out soon. Have you had the covid vaccine? I've heard that can mess with your cycle.

I've stopped bleeding only very slightly pink when I wipe now (TMI). I'm still getting positives that aren't getting darker or lighter! Why are our bodies like this?!

[hereforthefood]

@toadstool32 can't move onwards until I get AF😭 just stuck in limbo with no idea what's going on!

@maggiegary they only seem to do this when we need them to be normal! Maybe try and do a digital and see what it says?

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood I forgot to say I did one yesterday morning and it said 1-2 weeks 🤷‍♀️

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary Is that accurate for how far along you're expecting to be? I really hope everything is okay for you. Will you be getting your results today?

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood the nurse yesterday said results last night or today, when I rang last night to check the receptionist said it would be a week!
I can for the life of me remember when I ovulated but I think I should be just over 2 weeks from ovulation.

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary sounds like the digi was bang on then, very good sign!

A week?!?! You'd probably have your answer in tests or AF by then anyway!!! What a bloody joke!!

[Mrslight]

Test for the first time with frer 10 dpo today - bfn 😔 I know there is still a big chance, but it definitely took away some piece of hope

[Mrslight]

Annoyingly my frer had a very visible colorless indent in it before I even peed on it. I checked before peeing as I had an upsetting experience last cycle when all frers I took gave me a very faint line which was just an evap/indent line, just gave me huge hope for a couple of days

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood I know! I feel like I'm being let down! I know that there's a good chance it was a chemical and the bleeding was af and I would accept it if the digital was negative and if those bloody cheapies weren't still slightly positive! I already knew I was pregnant and they were barely visible but even this morning it was quite obviously there!

@Mrslight you have plenty of time for that BFP

[hereforthefood]

@Mrslight hellooooo! 10dpo is definitely early, 9dpo is the most common day for implantation so you probably wouldn't get a positive test for a few days yet! Do you think you're pregnant?

@maggiegary aren't chemical pregnancy bleeds meant to be quite long and heavy though? I always assumed that because the lining of the womb has had a few days to build up even more than it normally would then you'd have more to... Ahem... Expel shudders If your bleed was only light then I'd say you're still in the game! Plus, CP's don't usually last until they can be seen on a digital!

[maggiegary]

@hereforthefood last month I had a chemical and the bleeding been pretty much the same I guess? It wasnt overly heavy or at all painful and I got a positive on a digital and started bleeding the day after!
I'm going to have to suck it up and get some better tests I think!

[PinkFizz1]

@Mrslight I would wait a couple of days and test again 🤞🏼 Good luck.

@maggiegary hopefully you get your results today.. a WEEK?! That’s ridiculous. Hopefully she was mistaken.

@hereforthefood any sign of AF yet? How many days late are you?

Little update from me, I’m guessing (and could be completely wrong here) as I had some EWCM last Thursday and Sunday, that Tuesday may have been ovulation day? Roughly? Anyway, I had some pains in my side overnight. Today upon wiping I have the tiniest bit of brown on the paper (TMI sorry)

So! This is either the start of my withdrawal bleed OR maybe..possibly..could be.. implantation?! 🤞🏼

[maggiegary]

@PinkFizz1 🤞🤞

[hereforthefood]

@maggiegary ah, then maybe not so positive... I'd be chasing up the doctor's every day until they give you your results tbh. Especially with previous MC's on the cards

@PinkFizz1 no sign of AF yet! I'm a week late today and on CD40 with a negative FRER yesterday so quite concerned now...
My cervix has been medium-high and soft since the first of October... No idea what that's about! I'm going out drinking tonight (planned at the beginning of October and figured I'd know by now🙄🙄) so am tempted to take another test ~just in case~ but not expecting anything tbh and really don't want to use my last FRER for nothing :///
How many DPO are you? If you only ovulated (this???) Tuesday then it shouldn't be a withdrawal bleed yet! But also probably too early for implantation🤔 maybe it's an ovulation bleed?
