@MrsGrealish it's 200mg Doxycycline. Oh no! Sending some back your way 😁

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 13:52

@alwaysseeingstars really???? Defo not suitable for ttc

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 13:55

@alwaysseeingstars your turn to calm me down. Advice on a pregnancy test please. I'm 9dpo and starting to panic over a maybe positive test.

Oh really?! Argh... phone call to the docs in order then! Do you know what the issues are, is it true re the cycle effects or is it just bad for TTC in general?
Oh my gosh, not sure if you've sent a pic but I can't see it! They do say you're more fertile after a CP/MC..... xx

alwaysseeingstars · 14/07/2022 14:00

@MrsGrealish I've just gone on the app and can see the pic on there... I think I can see something! V v faint but I do think there's something there!

alwaysseeingstars · 14/07/2022 14:03

@MrsGrealish I've just realised i am NOT calming you down here... stay calm, try another test in a couple of days.. (sorry I'm rubbish at this 😂). How do you feel if it is a positive? Very conflicted emotions I imagine xx

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 14:03

@alwaysseeingstars Google bumps (best use of medicines in pregnancy) but it will defo stain a babies bones/teeth. Is it for fertility issues? I know they use it for endometrial inflammation but you are advised against conceiving xx

alwaysseeingstars · 14/07/2022 14:25

Thank you, no it's just for 2 weeks for a horrible chest infection - it's the only antibiotic I can seem to take. I should finish the course roughly one or two days before ovulation (should) be, but don't want it to cause any cycle issues or have any issues if I were to conceive this month! Now awaiting a call back from the GP xx

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 14:34

@alwaysseeingstars ok Xx I wasn't sure where you were in your cycle but I always have to say to anyone using it. It's a tetracycline and those are given to teenagers with acne to use long term so that's a totally different scenario xx

Tropicana1 · 14/07/2022 14:37

Right ladies feel free to tell me I'm crazy and that you can't see anything at all. 10dpo not fmu maybe like a 2 hour hold at most 🤦🏼‍♀️ don't even know what possessed me to use my last FRER when the cheapies are stark negatives but in person I feel like I can sometimes see a stupidly faint line, probably an evap. I have serious line eyes, can make them appear anywhere. Seriously debating running to boots and getting more FRERs 😂

@MrsGrealish oooh i do think I can see something on yours 😶

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 14:38

@alwaysseeingstars in my head I was praying it wasn't trimethoprim and I was too late with the advice 😅

I took a breath, calmed down slightly drunk some water and took a multivitamin. No more testing today.

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 14:42

@Tropicana1 yay tests that aren't mine! It's very obvious in photo one. The cheapy one steps I didn't get much on them till 4.5 weeks x

Get some more! ooh try the boots sensitive ones I've seen good reviews on them

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 14:43

@Tropicana1 also I can see a hint of pink in the first photo 🤞🤞

alwaysseeingstars · 14/07/2022 14:58

@MrsGrealish thank you, I'd rather know if there were an issue!! The doc has just said it's fine other than in 2nd and 3rd trimester (I wish!) so fingers crossed! Also I keep meaning to say thank you for your tip re Prime having their sale, got some more CB tests :) let me know what you get in tomorrow's test!
@Tropicana1 I think I can see something in the first pic?🤞🤞nothing in the other 2 but I am VERY bad for seeing lines haha! But that's v promising if that's not even FMU? I would definitely be going to Boots ready for the morning 😂

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 15:00

@alwaysseeingstars aww no worries..glad you got sorted out 😘

Tropicana1 · 14/07/2022 15:16

@MrsGrealish @alwaysseeingstars right I'm off to boots 😂

alwaysseeingstars · 14/07/2022 15:21

@MrsGrealish and @Tropicana1 I'm so excited for you guys now, keeping fingers crossed!
@MamaSJ15 any change from yesterday, either AF or BFP?? 😊

Tropicana1 · 14/07/2022 15:27

So went to boots and they didn't have any so panicked and bought their early detection test and then decided to go to Superdrug and bloody found some there so got some too (for double the price of my Amazon order that I'm too impatient to wait for 🤣)

OP posts:
MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 15:32

@Tropicana1 honestly so excited for you to try boots own brand ones!!

MrsGrealish · 14/07/2022 15:33

I'm going to try and ignore my own situation for a few days. Wish me luck with that 😂

Tropicana1 · 14/07/2022 16:10

@MrsGrealish haha good luck with the ignoring. Both the repeat tests are negative 🤦🏼‍♀️ must have been an evap line on the first.

I'll still waste another in the morning just to be sure 😂
