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

[LillyTame]

afm- well ff is saying i O'd and my temps are still going up, so my score is 'low' on there too, pretty sure i'm totally out this month. i still never got that positive on my ferning scope. never got ewcm, never got anything. i think i didn't really o this month. but my body thinks i did?

Ugh, how frustrating! I wish I had SOMETHING hopeful/helpful to say, but I don't have a clue what may be going on

 

[ClandestineTX]

Update: definite BFN this morning. Guessing a few sucky tests snuck into my stock?

 

[R22]

No Clandestine! That's aweful! Boo.

Well I'm sort of in the same boat with mommyxofxone; I got two peak readings on my CBFM, followed by a high, and positive OPK's on those three days as well. We DtD all those days and I had the major hormones yesterday, but now the monitor and OPK's read that the surge is gone and my temps have only gone up .4 and they usually go up much higher than that coupled with the fact that, other than the mood swings yesterday, I've had NO symptoms of O'ing (no cramps, twinges, etc etc) I'm left to guess that it may not have happened this month. My future temps will either confirm my fears or prove that I have. Either way both FF and CDTP say that I've most likely O'd on the 8th, meaning that my period should be due on the 23rd. I'm still planning to test on the 19th, though that will make it early (11DPO) and I know my chances are high that I could get a false negative.

Course now I'm comparing myself to last cycle, both because it's the only other cycle I've had where I got pregnant even if it was a chemical. I honestly don't know if I want this cycle to follow the same symptoms as the last one. I've heard from a lot of women that it's often the cycle where they have NO symptoms that they end up pregnant and it sticks... thoughts??? Ugh as usual I'm 1DPO and driving myself insane already...

 

[ClandestineTX]

I'd keep DTD every other day, just in case... symptoms usually take a few days, so I'd not worry about a lack of them at 1 DPO!

 

[MIZZYD]

Oh No Clandestine

It's weird... SMU test has what looks to be a very light line (dye streaks and all) but can't even get a photo of it. Literally has been every other test with *something* questionable. These are not a new pack of tests, been using this set/ lot number for months (since March or so). Have not had a single one do anything like this and it seems odd that I suddenly have a whole bunch doing this in a three-day span, right? Going to keep testing every day until I get a convincing positive or a new cycle starts, as I can't do much else at this point!

That is fantastic news!! I sooo hope you get a dark BFP soon! Sounds promising.

and fx!! Can't wait to read your updates.

 

[ClandestineTX]

Thanks, countrygurl3, but I still feel like it's a great big tease. I'm definitely not yet convinced of anything!

 

[nikkilucky77]

ClandestineTX: When is af due? I'm wondering if you just don't have enought HCG yet...it just sounds fishy that you haven't had this before and now you are. So I want to be optimistic and say bfp

 

[ClandestineTX]

ETA for she-who-should-not-be-named is this Thursday, as in the day after tomorrow. I can't explain it, but it feels like the year after next right now! I agree it sounds fishy and it's making me insane. I can't bear to tell Hubster, because I'm worried it's fluke round of tests and I do NOT want to get his hopes up. It's getting hard to be self-protectively dismissive of it and at the same time REALLY want it to work out. Definitely testing again in the morning and breaking out my last FRER either tomorrow, if Wondfo looks more convincing, or Thursday, unless she shows.

 

[nikkilucky77]

I would test tomorrow and see what you get since it is so close to she-who-should-not-be-named. Good luck and keep us posted!!

 

[ClandestineTX]

Thanks, Nikki - I definitely will! I just hope it's something. And I do not know how I'm going to make it through the next two days without losing my mind!!!

 

[Mrs. JJ]

You'll be like me Clandie when I got that squinter. I slept for like a total of 30 mins (so my temp was useless) and had to pee soooo bad from 3 - 5 am but I wanted to hold it, I finally gave up at 5 am and tested. Never did get back to sleep after that! And then for the next week I'd pop up at like 4 am in a panic thinking I missed the time I take my temp.

 

[ClandestineTX]

If it was a continuous string of squinters, I swear I'd be more optimistic!

 

[Mrs. JJ]

Hormone levels fluctuate so does the concentration of urine. You're seeing SOMETHING!!

 

[nikkilucky77]

This is a question for my friends with bfp's. I had a .5 temp drop today at 9 dpo, cramping all day, and af is due Saturday. Is the implantation dip a myth or did you experience it? Trying not to read too much into it but you know how that is

 

[Mrs. JJ]

I don't know if I had it, my temps were kinda all over the place but I've seen some get an implantation dip and other times it looked like it but ended up being nothing. It's hard to say really.

 

[ClandestineTX]

Everything about implantation dips: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/Faqs/Implantation-dip-study.html

One of the biggest questions, Nikki, is do you usually have a mid-LP dip? I, like many others, have a secondary estrogen surge big enough to cause a mid-LP dip nearly every cycle... apparently except this one (just sayin'). The consensus seems to be anytime you have a thing (or lack of thing) that you usually have - it's promising!

@Mrs. JJ: I hope you are right, but I definitely just feel delusional at this point, like I'm just imagining things. It's one of the reasons I'm glad I posted the pics for others to get line eye over - makes me feel less cray cray when other people see it, too.

Per several websites (I have looked at over and over and over and over again) Temp drops can be seen in both pos or neg charts so it's not a really good go by. Now if you had the dip PLUS a little implantation bleeding, I'd be a bit more hopeful (Sorry I'm not a preggo but been charting for 6cycles now and I've SCRUUUUUBBED my charts looking for that tale tell sign)
