Hi everyone, setting up a new months thread for those of us who already know weโ€™re out for August. Iโ€™m going on to cycle 3. Hope this can continue to be a place where we can chat and support one another.

@SleepySkyRat Im not 100% sure as I didnโ€™t catch peak as think I missed it but could be 11DPO? Iโ€™ve just done a LH test as Iโ€™ve been testing all month since chemical and itโ€™s nearly same colour as control line and my AF is due ๐Ÿ˜•

@SureLook I really donโ€™t know what to do and where my head is at ๐Ÿ˜ฉ Feel all over the place. Iโ€™ve just done another LH test as AF is due (attached) and still dark ๐Ÿ™ˆ

@amey44 Usually I would say when get CM then itโ€™s time to start DTD ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฅฐ

Some good news today after a crappy few weeks though. My partners semen test come back and he has super sperm at 42!!! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ All his results were way over avarage and the same if not better than a youngster so thatโ€™s something ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Weโ€™ve had a right laugh about it. Iโ€™ve got tingling fluttering in my side like I did with last pregnancy last month but really donโ€™t want to get my hopes up. I know I should just do a test. A digital was negative after the chemical but I thought I could see a shadow on easy at home but my partner couldnโ€™t so think all HCG has left.

Oh my gosh, this has just reminded me that back when we started trying this year, I had some fun with chatGPT and it played along beautifully ๐Ÿ˜‚ sorry for picture spam, but it was too funny not to share. Iโ€™m extremely silly but even he was impressed! It helped put a smile on my face when we had our first chemical.

I don't want to give false hope, but super dark LH tests for over a week led me to taking a (positive) test. Lh strips pick up HCG apparently. Sadly ended in miscarriage/chemical for me but I have everything crossed for you!

SureLook · 24/09/2025 12:07

@Muddysocks1 that was a horrible evap since there was colour. That's so unfair.

@Iris2024 did you test again??

Iris2024 · 24/09/2025 12:45

@overwork and @Marvelftw ive kept it up ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ do we keep it as our October one? ๐Ÿ˜‚

@EmPeEf thatโ€™s actually hilarious!!!! ๐Ÿคฃ

@SureLook Iโ€™ve not done a pregnancy test yet this cycle. Iโ€™m dying to but donโ€™t want the disappointment or the trying to squint if a line ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iris2024 · 24/09/2025 12:48

Okay Iโ€™ve kept the October thread up with the emojis so we will head over there (hopefully we donโ€™t need to) but itโ€™s there and waiting! Anybody need the link just say but itโ€™s Halloween, colder weather and hoping for our BFF October or something like that ๐ŸคŽ

Iris2024 · 24/09/2025 13:20

We are rising again right before my period?? Maybe Iโ€™ll miss this period and peak again? Who bloody knowsโ€ฆ. Hate not being in control. Should we be DTD right before my period? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Eek, could it be hcg, have you done a pregnancy test? Unless it was failed ovulation so youโ€™re having a second surge? Bodies are so confusing!

I wish ๐Ÿคฃ

Unless itโ€™s residual hcg? Or a slight hormonal imbalance that is still settling down? Theyโ€™re just guesses though!

I think it must just be my hormones being VERY high. Iโ€™d love to think Iโ€™m that blessed to be pregnant again so soon (cycle after miscarriage) but doubt it. I might do a test in morning. No idea of DPO looking at my LH tests

@Muddysocks1

This looks exactly like my lh tests from the month I fell pregnant. I'm still not entirely sure what happened. From CD 7-17 I had dark lines, but I had what I thought was a period the week before so I hadn't done a pregnancy test. Until CD17 when my reading was literally off the chart at 2.6 and I was googling what was wrong with me. Got a very strong line on the hcg test that day x

Thanks hun, so for context I got pregnant and had my first positive on 23rd August, positive lines until 1st September and lost the pregnancy. Did a digital before ovulating and a pregnancy test and not pregnant. Started my LH tests for a new cycle on CD8 and darker than usual, theyโ€™ve remained fluctuating dark and darker since but the one today is practically peak at CD24. Think I need to do a pregnancy test to rule it out. Be a miracle if I am after chemical miscarriage and my LH tests being all over the place ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Marvelftw · 24/09/2025 15:17

@Iris2024 yes definitely keep it! Itโ€™s so festive and fun ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐ŸŽƒ

Ah ok, yes I remember you from previous threads as I think we have the same birthday? It stuck in my mind. So sorry for your previous loss ๐Ÿค
You never know, I have heard that the first cycle after a loss can be lucky. It's such a head fuck isn't it when you don't know what's going on. X

Oh it is a head f**k! My birthday is 2nd September and had my full bleed that day ๐Ÿ˜ฉ Remaining positive and moving on now and hoping it happens again and sticks โค๏ธ Thank you for your kind message. Are you trying?
