30-somethings TTC #1 Testing and Support Thread!

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Aw Titi! I take it you didn't get a nice, dark second line? I seriously hope AF does NOT show and that you are getting the pg cramps. If she does show I'm sending you tremendous hugs. I get the feeling this is the first time in a while that you've tested? I bet you are like me and you swore off testing but then you got those juicy cramps and hoped you'd get a pleasant surprise?

I've got the code for that group hug gif at home, but if you google it the code will probably pop up. The google image search is especially good for things like that. I'll post the code when I get home.

Loads of support ladies!

I used an accu-clear(it came free in my Accu -clear OPK 5pk). It's the kind with the + and - and boy that negative didn't waste any time popping straight up.

Yeah I normally don't test but you are right those cramps got the better of me. It was pretty stupid since I had already peed twice since 5 this morning and poas about 7:30.

Hey girls.
Sorry if I'm being boring with my questions, but I'm a little bit nervous
This is my evening test and I think it's ok...is n't it?

Hey everyone - just checking for today to see if there is any news.

Sorry to hear your news Titi - you're never out until AF shows though so fxd for you!

Thanks Lucky D - this is my second cycle using the CBFM and have actually got a peak this time - woohoo! Was beginning to get worried. Baby danced on all the right days so am cautiously optimistic. Going on our past record though, getting a bean is just the first hurdle - then the worry starts!

Waitng - I know what you mean - it's nice to find other people in the same situation as you. I've just tried explaining to my DH what BnB is but he doesn't quite get it! Never mind - you're all here to chat to!
Fx and sticky babydust to everyone x

Okay everyone-I lied. (this happens). I tested this morning. I had AF beginning cramps with no sign of blood in cm and am a day or two early still for af. I guess I got excited b/c I have heard from some girls who are pg they thought AF was coming. I didn't use fmu-poas about 2 hours after waking and 3rd pee of day so not sure if it was even accurate-although at 13 dpo it surely must be. I am so daft. I have been known (on more occasions then I'd like to admit) to test DURING af I go into such denial. duh.

Im completely with you - just was on another thread and was sharing that I have an addiction to peeing on plastic. Welcome to the club!!

Sounds like you are in a very similar place to me in your cycle - I am now officially 3 days late. Got BFN day due & yesterday so clearly not going to get a BFP but even dispite that I will test tomorrow morning

I think we are all as bad as each other...

 

[Ejay]

Hiya everyone.

LuckyD can you please put me down for the 19th, thank you.

Am continuing with SMEP this cycle as well so will start tomorrow CD8.

Still haven't plucked up enough courage to go to the Docs, OH has just moved in so we have to get him registered, think I might use that as the motivation to go.

good luck everyone
xx

Hi Everyone,

My name's JJay, I'm 33 and back ttc after an 8 month break to get married. ttc for 5 months last year with no luck, after 16 years on BCP then we decided to do the married thing first.

Just had my first month back ttc and got AF today, which coincided with my first day back at work after my honeymoon

I am also a test addict Please can you put me down for testing on the 26th May and I promise to try really hard and not test too early this month.

to everyone let's hope this is a lucky thread and we get lots of BFPs this month.

JJay x

Wow I didn't realize you were 3 days late! Have you ever been late before? I really haven't-and I'm still not. In fact, AF isn't due for another 1-3 days-I just never had af cramps except on day of af so I got a little overexcited.

I would def. test again tomorrow if I were you-you at least have a reason-you're LATE!!! FX'd! I super hope you are pg.!!!

Thanks Titi - only once in January where I was a week late. But I ended up with swine flu and had to take anti virals as I was so ill and I really think that messed me up that month (although we still managed to BD once impressive or what!). Usually I am quite regular, perhaps a day either side but not three days late... trying not to be too positive. Not really any symptoms.

 

[Titi]

well fx'd hun-it sounds really hopeful!

 

[Waitng4Baby#1]

Welcome JJay - thirty somethings TTC & addicted to peeing on plastic !

 

[JJay]

Thanks Waiting4Baby#1 it sounds good for you this month. FXed for you!

 

[LuckyD]

Hey everyone!

Just so you know...I am in New Zealand so a lot of the action on this board happens while I am asleep! So if I don't respond straight away that is why. I do check in daily though, so will keep everything up to date!

angharad79 - wantingagirl already answered, but your 'testing date' is the date that you plan to take a home pregnancy test - usually around the day that AF is due, but some do test earlier. Let me know if you want to be added to the list

wantingagirl - hurrah for the peak! That is awesome. So good to know that is has happened huh? Hope I follow you soon..

Titi - sorry you got a negative sweetheart. But AF still hasn't arrived right? Hang in there xx oh, and I know what it's like to say you won't test and then you end up testing! It is a urge larger than I can control at times!

Hey Jaimie - loads of support right back at ya!

spicy - that looks pretty good to me - I think you should get to BDing! Good luck!!

nupu - sounds like you have timed things perfectly this month! nice one lots of sticky baby dust is being sent your way!!

Waiting4Baby - 3 days late! Fingers crossed for you!!

Hey Ejay xx your date is added Good luck with the Dr xx

Welcome JJay - congrats on your wedding! I have added your testing date


Well, I am CD11 today...things are slowly moving along...BD'd this morning so I am in a particuarly good mood!

Can't wait to see some BFPs on this thread!

 

[giggles.]

Morning all.
I'm still chating and doing the opk and cbfm. I am now testing the opk twice a day in hope to catch my positive. oh and I are only going to get to BD tomorrow night and maybe sometime on Friday! He is away Thursday evening and I am away Friday fro the weekend. Ovulation timing sucks this month. Although I guess I could be lucky and not O till after Monday but that isn't going to happen lol.

Good luck to everyone for this month.

I'll still be around to bug you all in the June thread hehehehe!

Well....will let you know. cramps still here & AF headache this morning. SOD OFF WITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Waiting4Baby-did you test?!?!

 

[wantingagirl]

Titi - Im like that too I always say I wont and I cant help myself and end up testing. I hope she doesnt get you hun

Nupu I think alot of men are quite happy we are on here. Well my DH is anyway he does care but just doesnt get it either and why are men so relaxed. No one knows how it feels until they go through it themselves

Hi Ejay how are you? I know how you feel about plucking up the courage to go

Jjay welcome I hope you get your BFP soon

Yay Lucky I was so happy and got super strong pains so hopefully a good eggy and hope you get yours too!

 

[Jacksie]

Hiya

I hope you don't mind me joining you.
My AF is 1 day late, I am symptom spotting like mad but at the moment, I am bloated, as i said 1 day late, sore boobies, cramps before I get out of bed down the left side, soooo tired, loss of appetite, creamy discharge, constipation.....

Am I going insane or do you think I should wait another few days before testing??

 

[bonjo808]

Hi everyone - I took a long weekend so I'm just now catching up on this thread. Hoping for a bunch of BFPs soon! AF is due for me either Friday or Saturday. I've got no real symptoms so I'm not holding my breath for a BFP this time, but I'm surprisingly okay with it....on to next month.

to all

 

[Rompy]

Hie all

Welcome to you Jjay.

Im 5dpo today and i got some cramps. Im trying not to be too excited but i feel happy.

Baby dust to all of you.

Mornin' ladies! Here is the code for the group hug gif: https://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/10172/grouphugg.gif[img]
just put a / in front of the last img, inside the brackets. If I add it now you'll just see the gif and not the code...

Titi - sometimes I get a super bad AF headache too - it starts in the morning and lasts all day, not matter what I take. I've been told that is due to the lower amount of estrogen in that part of the lp. Hope yours isn't too bad and isn't a sign of impending AF!
