Congratulations!!!

Sdowd I definitely feel like I see something and your symptoms are for sure fantastic! So hopefully to see a clear positive in the next couple days.

Ellybean congrats that looks bfp to me!


I can't tell from my temp whether I ovulated on CD12 yet or not. My ovulation is never usually ambiguous so I'm guessing the miscarriage has thrown my cycle all out of whack. Going to carry on BDing every other day at the latest to cover our bases in case ovulation is still around the corner

Still not sure when I'm planning to test. Amazon is so slow right now that I wouldn't get any tests until after Christmas (I ordered the last of my kids Christmas presents today and they will probably not make it in time ) which definitely solidifies the no crazy POAs this month. So I'll for sure plan to wait til AF is late

Oh no! I'm sorry your temps aren't being very helpful. That's frustrating. Is there any way you can post your chart here? It's good that you're continuing to BD just in case. That way you know you're covered no matter when it happens.

So the problem is I did a no-no this morning and temped twice. I woke up early at 5am to take my toddler back to her bed and temped then, and then I went back to sleep for two hours and temped again. The later temp was high enough for FF to confirm O (and I usually ovulate on CD12 so the timing lines up. I have never in my life ovulated later than CD14. But I've also never had a D&C before either.) but the earlier one doesn't.

Honestly it's a wait and see approach to see what the rest of my temps look like. I've recorded both and am currently defaulting to the earlier temp that doesn't confirm ovulation

There is a website you can go to that gives you an adjusted temp. You can put in your 5am temp and exactly what time you took it and then put in what time you normally take it. It gives you an adjusted temp of what your temp would have been had you taken it at the correct time.

I hope that can help you and give you some clarity. I also want to say that I'm so sorry for your loss.

@S_Dowd I see something!

 

[josephine3]

Morning ladies! So I feel like this will be a recurring post this 2ww but my boobs!! Lol. Especially the left one is so achy down the side and my nipples are extra sensitive too. I know it's too early but there's def something up with my boobs
@Suggerhoney hope you are OK hun how are you doing?

 

[josephine3]

Ah where is everyone today... @NightFlower any more tests from you? Can't wait to see those dark lines...
@Ellybean how about you? You can't just drop an frer like that then leave us hanging
Can you tell I need to look at tests to pass the 2ww lol x

 

[Ellybean]

@josephine3 I was just about to post lol.
9dpo FMU 6 hour hold. Not looking any darker today. Starting to worry about a chemical but keeping my fingers crossed.

 

[sallyhansen76]

@Ellybean sometimes it takes longer for the hormones to climb, but still be healthy. Still looks positive to me

 

[S_Dowd]

Good morning everyone!

Thanks for looking at my test @Bevziibubble

@josephine3 Oooo that sounds promising!How many dpo are you now? I try, but it's so hard to keep track of where everyone is lol

I'm 9dpo this morning. And I woke up not just queasy, but full on nauseous this morning. And my boobs are tingling/almost burning. And my nipples are still super sensitive and tender. I was so moody and emotional yesterday. My poor husband. Luckily, he could tell I was hormonal, so he didn't hold anything against me haha!

I wanted to show you these horrible pregmate tests I'm working with.



Look at these lines straight out of the package!!! It's so bad! Ugh! I don't trust anything I see on these stupid tests, but I'll post one for you anyways. I'm counting anything without a fairly obvious line as a BFN.

 

[sallyhansen76]

@S_Dowd I think I can see something, and your symptoms sound great! I know those lines out of the package are horrible!!! Can you invert to see if the line we see has any color?

 

[S_Dowd]

@sallyhansen76 I don't think I see color on this one, but let me know if you do.

 

[S_Dowd]

@Ellybean I'm sorry I totally missed your post! It looks positive to me, still! Remember it takes 48 hours for HCG to double. Which is really annoying at the beginning when you may be working with a starting number of 15-20. In 48 hours that would only go up to 30-40. So at 24 hours, it would only be 22-30. It would be such a small increase, you wouldn't see much change on a test. And it's sooo frustrating! Hopefully you'll start seeing some progression in a couple of days!!!

 

[josephine3]

@Ellybean still looking good!!
@S_Dowd wow that's some bad indent lines for a dry test!! That's awful! Not sure if I can see much on the used ons or not... Thanks for giving me some tests to study though ladies lol. I'm literally only 3dpo today hahaha. Looooong time to wait x

 

[NightFlower]

Looks like its another cp started bleeding sometime during the night. Didn’t bother testing this morning. I'm devastated right now. Cd1 for me.

Glad to help you while you wait lol. I hate these tests so much. At this point I just want to use them up so I can justify buying new ones, but I bought a pack of 50

I'm so sorry

 

[MrsKatie]

@Ellybean my frer from 8-9 dpo were pretty much identical. That’s a great line for 9dpo.

@S_Dowd oooh fx fx fx

@NightFlower this is just horrible I am SO sorry

Oh Night flower I'm so so sorry. I wish I could give you a big hug.

 

[josephine3]

Oh no @NightFlower Im so so sorry Hopefully the bleeding stops, is it heavy? I really thought this was it for you, do you think you should see a doc to see if they can help with you having so many chemicals? You seem to catch so often then not have it progress I can imagine how upsetting it is for you xxx big hugs xxx
@S_Dowd that's frustrating and typical that you got 50. If I was you I'd buy more anyway if a diff brand and use both x
