@SnookyPook do you think it is possible you ov’d later? Do you track ovulation or just go off of your app? Keeping everything crossed for you! 🤞🏼there are people who don’t get a bfp until after af is due! X

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 10:47

Thank you ladies.

@missmae with all pregnancies, I only got positive at dpo 11. With my son, I got a good line (not same as control, just obvious line) at dpo 11. With 2 chemicals, I got one line at dpo 11 morning and another at dpo 11 night. Both were fairly faint.

@longingtobe23 I'm sorry you've been trying for some time now. Have you had your partner tested? I know us ladies always think something wrong with us, but when we did lots of tests in June, the fertility specialist says it's just as common with men. And diet, vitamins can help with that X big hugs

SnookyPook · 08/08/2023 11:23

@missmae thank you! Yeah I used opk so pretty sure which 48hrs but I did think maybe I ovulated later in the window due to some signs so possibly day after the app put. Looking back my previous pregnancies got my BFP at 15dpo and they weren't strong so many still be in with a chance. I think I must be a low/slow HCG starter person! We'll know soon enough!

missmae · 08/08/2023 11:39

@HelloMoon87 ah okay! Will you test again tomorrow?! Depending on your test you do later?

@SnookyPook ooo that’s reassuring!! still have time then! Yeah I’ve normally got my positives day of af but that’s because I didn’t test before then so idk if I would’ve got early positives! Last cycle was the first time for me to test before af I was a bit crazy last month, deffo more chilled this time!

Keeping everything crossed for you both!

Thank you so much for replying @Tes004 given the level of activity on this thread, it looks like I would’ve been otherwise ignored. Took a boots test today with SMU and it’s negative 😭 so looks like it was an evap line. Gutted. Still no sign of AF though so slim chance and still having mild cramping, from one ovary then moves to the other ovary and some tightness around my previous c section scar 🤷‍♀️

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 12:14

@missmae it's darker now, just did one after 3.5-4 hour hold 🙈🙈🙈

@HelloMoon87 omg! Just got goosebumps for you! Ahh how exciting, there’s deffo a line. So hoping for a sticky one for you and it progresses!!😁🤞🏼🩷

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 12:18

@missmae it's there right? It's more obvious in person but I feel like I'm imagining it 🙈 I am so emotional right now

OP posts:
missmae · 08/08/2023 12:19

@HelloMoon87 its definitely there no doubt about that. And it’s pink!😁🩷

SnookyPook · 08/08/2023 12:22

@HelloMoon87 I see it! 😍

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 12:30

Thank you so much 💚💛🩵

😭😭😭 I don't think my heart can take another miscarriage, but I'm going to try to be positive and not go crazy next few days, that's the problem with testing early (no promises!) Honestly didn't expect a positive test, I've got no symptoms now. I was tired on dpo 4, stomach bubbling for few hours on dpo 6, and then quite a lot going on dpo 8 (small cramps, underboob hurting, wanting to pee but not peeing much), but nothing in between, so up and down.

Baby dust ✨✨✨

@HelloMoon87 aww I know! But yes just try to relax now! Have me wanting to test 🫣😂 Will you test again tomorrow? Sending lots of sticky baby dust!! 💖

That's definitely positive! Congratulations lovely ❤️

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 12:59

@missmae I will be testing every day until I pass the time I had my chemicals. The initial excitement got quickly replaced by fear, going to take it day by day 🤞 I will say waiting to test is better but who am I to say it 😂 I have no willpower.

OP posts:
missmae · 08/08/2023 13:06

@HelloMoon87 yes that makes sense! Fingers crossed! 🤞🏼hahah I’m with my sister who is currently nearly 10 weeks so she’s egging me on to test 😂🫣

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 13:12

@missmae ah yes and you also have some symptoms right? It is hard to wait and also hard to test. I would say if you could hold until dpo 12, it's probably a bit better. Having BFN is so demotivating.

OP posts:
BlossomTree123 · 08/08/2023 13:17

@HelloMoon87 100% positive!! congratulations!!! I’m hoping this one progresses well for you!!!

missmae · 08/08/2023 13:18

@HelloMoon87 yeah, I’ve been exhausted since 4dpo, had some mild twinges 6dpo, hot flushes and increased appetite and of course the clear liquid from right nipple! That’s it really, and some headaches ! But yeah I ideally want to wait as well tbh!

ttcthoughts · 08/08/2023 13:39

@HelloMoon87 Oh my goodness lovely there is defiantly a line there! Super exciting! I hope this progresses well for you and gives the rest of us hope after a MC :)

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 14:29

Thank you so much. I have everything crossed for you all. Fingers crossed progression goes well next few days, I'd love to just be able to enjoy pregnancy but I know most are wobbly at best this early. Thank you again, and I'll be probably messaging here with my insanity next few days, hope you don't mind x

longingtobe23 · 08/08/2023 15:03

@HelloMoon87 firstly… congratulations!!! Hope it’s gets stronger for you tomorrow 🌷✨

yes other half had two semen analysis and all good 😬 he did start borderline but then we got him on the vitamins and shot through the roof!
we both started trying at 28 for #2 Now 30 🥲 so not even an age thing! Not too late this month if not, I’ve tried all I can possibly naturally and it’s time for some help 💗
we only tried this long as I wanted to be sure i gave it my all

HelloMoon87 · 08/08/2023 15:13

@longingtobe23 thank you. I only say this as that was my experience as well. It was borderline and then he had vitamins for 2 months and there was a big improvement.

Fingers crossed for you, still early xx
