[CLOSED]***Lucky LTTTC Testers***

[kksy9b]

Congratulations Chulie!!! You have been such a positive voice over all these threads and I am so happy you got your BFP!! Keep us updated to how things are going!

 

[LillyTame]

Well ladies I finally got the positive I was waiting on....my OPK! I'm hoping I ov tomorrow...but more likely it will be 2-3 days (my usual). We'll see BD sessions planned for tonight and the next 2 days...key word "planned" lol Yay, so close to having a test date

 

[R22]

I've been feeling a bit nauseous since my drive home from work today. It could be nothing, it could be something but I don't want to get my hopes up. Soooo, just to ease my mind I think I'll test in the morning.

Anyone planning on testing tomorrow?

 

[LillyTame]

There are no "planned" testers for tomorrow but everyone seems to be testing early...you ladies are no help! Am I the ONLY one that's gonna wait till my test day?! lol blush:I'm talking a lot of stuff, I'll probably test at 6dpo )

 

[mommyxofxone]

may i join you ladies??? i am cycle day 14 but my af is so screwed up after 1st that i dont have a test day yet

 

[lovelymiss]

Oh yay LillyTame! Can't wait for you to start testing. I'm 6dpo and have a strong urge to want to test at 8dpo. Trying my best to hold out until 10dpo with my FRER.

 

[chulie]

Also - chulie - any idea how many DPO you are?

@R22: I should be reasonable and test later, I usually start around 7-8 DPO and test first thing every morning to "get it out of my system" until a new cycle starts.

I'm thinking I'm 9 dpo?? If I look at my o symptoms it was definitely Sunday..maybe Monday latest???

 

[chulie]

Thanks for all your support ladies!! Mrs JJ are you testing again??? I'm gonna test again tomorrow just to make sure it gets darker.

 

[Mrs. JJ]

Yes Chulie! I will probably test everyday until I go into labor. Today was actually my third day testing and getting a but the first day was Saturday and it was suuuuper light so even Hubs wasn't sure he believed me!

Hi mommyxofxone! Welcome to the July Testers thread! I guess I gotta make somewhere for the people who are unsure of their dates. Are you using OPKs or temping?

 

[LillyTame]

Yes Chulie! I will probably test everyday until I go into labor. Today was actually my third day testing and getting a but the first day was Saturday and it was suuuuper light so even Hubs wasn't sure he believed me!

Mrs. JJ, not sure if you were just joking or not but beware! After a certain point you will start to get negs on a HPT! It will be awhile though (maybe in 2nd tri). Some women then add a little water to their urine and they get the positive again...it's called the hook effect. Something to do with your HCG being too high.

 

[Mrs. JJ]

Ya I was just kidding! I'll stop... When I run out of tests probably.

 

[LillyTame]

Ok, good! lol We don't need any freak outs!

Hi mommyxofxone! Welcome to the July Testers thread! I guess I gotta make somewhere for the people who are unsure of their dates. Are you using OPKs or temping?

i'm temping and doing the ferning microscope. If i take several cycles i'll buy opks (i used them the cycle i got my bfp for the first one) but right now 'trying' to take it easy

 

[LillyTame]

How's that ferning microscope? I've heard of it, but don't know of anyone that actually uses one.

Psssht... I'll be waiting until at LEAST 7 DPO!

That's an AMAZING line for 9 DPO!!!

"High dose hook effect" to be precise: https://www.pregnancylab.net/2011/05/false-negative-pregnancy-tests.html

And it's a real thing (note: we use a similar test in my lab for ID of something other than pregnancy and have the same issue) - if you want to keep testing and don't want false negatives, all you have to do is dilute the sample first (e.g. pee in a cup and water it down) - don't want to leave my POAS addicts hanging!

Mrs JJ...so cool! Glad to hear!!! Hahahaa ya I'm gonna buy 2 more and take one today and as long a its darker ill save the other one for a fee days later.

Ohhhhh ya I've hear about that ferning thing. Someone else talked about it. Ok THAT'S cool! Especially as someone who had a microscope as a kid and used to run around asking people for blood and skin cells when I was like 9 so I could see it under the microscope!!! Hahahahaha. That just sounds like a whole lot of fun!

 

[R22]

Well ladies, I am sad to report that I got the this morning.

I didn't think it was my month once my temps dropped and stayed low for several days, but when I was feeling quizzy yesterday I thought just maybe.
I know you are not out until AF shows up but I just know this isn't the month. Guess I'll be moving over to August testers.

 

[mommyxofxone]

How's that ferning microscope? I've heard of it, but don't know of anyone that actually uses one.

i bought it with my first, one because i think microscopes are awesome and two because i wouldn't have to buy anything to replace it. i wake up in the am, put one drop of saliva on the lens, (it takes 5 minutes to dry) i take my shower, come out, read the scope, and it's done. clean it, repeat in the am. and when you're fertile it looks like an actual fern plant. very cool.

it really is fun!!! you can get them on sale sometimes at early pregnancy tests .com that's how i got mine. i invested since i figured i'd be spending that much on opks/hpts monthly at least this is something i wouldn't have to replace every month!!! and look, i bought it in 2010, and it can never expire. so years of use if i want. after the next baby, i'll probably give it away to a friend.
