*December Snowflakes* testing thread

[tdog]

Yeah, it’s such crap getting these tests! At least I finally got a post ovulation temp reading this morning, so i didnt ovulate early, it was very late. And more unfortunate is that DH and the kids have been sick the past 2 days so all our bding is from too long ago (I know supposedly it can live for 5 days, but that’s not really the ‘in with a good shot’ most of us want).

@HalfricanMa oh no im so sorry people are sick at your house, its so nasty this time of year. Praying you get that miracle bfp.
@tdog gorgeous pic!
Hi to anyone I missed

Still spotting dark pink/purplish, I had DH hide the tests cause I just don’t have it in me to obsess today. I will obsess over spotting still of course but I need at least one day off from testing.

Hope the spotting stops soon.

@MrsKatie that was a great call about hiding the tests. So sorry it’s another stressful start but you’re strong and God-fearing.

I still havent gotten peak on clearblue and my opks aren’t quite positive yet. Darker than they’ve been though. Maybe my temp rise is from my immune system kicking high gear. Honestly Idk how i haven't become sick but I've been drinking a fresh immunity tea concoction each morning. I wonder, though, if i have not ovulated. Loads of fertile cm this morning. Needed to change my undies. Ugh…what weird days ttc!

I’ve read some bizarre stories on here of women conceiving when not directly in their fertile period. In fact I had a pregnancy where I still have no clue how it happened so don’t rule yourself out yet.

 

[HalfricanMa]

Haha! Thanks 3boys! A much as I like to make it a science, it always comes back to faith!

You might be in fertile window now then if loads of cm as I say I don't get a lot of fertile cm, what a strange cycle your having xx

@MrsKatie good move hiding the tests fingers crossed everything calms down and all is OK xx

 

[HalfricanMa]

@monroea please be sure to update us with future tests!

 

[NightFlower]

I'm still spotting it did pick up a little. so I'm thinking maybe a cp. Have to wait and see if I test negative soon. My test was still positive this morning. Feeling stressed out for sure. Had some cramps too. Kinda feeling down right now. I really don't want to start the new year with a cp.

It seems you might be right. What a weird cycle!

Sorry to hear. Try to do something nice for yourself today.

@NightFlower praying for you sweetie, what color is the spotting? Mine is dark pink with some red. I hope yours tapers off and babe is ok.

@HalfricanMa ooh look at those gorgeous opks! I am praying honey! Thank you for your kind words. Leaning on the Lord and His word is helping to get me through this strange limbo time.

AFM the spotting is still happening but extremely light, and my symptoms are insane. Never felt aversions this strong this early, I do think it’s a good sign but it’s very hard to eat anything. Think I can stomach some plain yogurt in a minute so I’ll try.

 

[MrsKatie]

Oh and here are last night’s tests dried… the cheapies look SO much better than FRER I’m shocked. Still feel hopeful, and I will continue to be hopeful until I have bright red period-level bleeding.

 

[tdog]

@HalfricanMa oh look at them how gorgeous are they xx

@MrsKatie that's it you have to try and stay positive hunni keeping you in my prayers and sending huge xx

 

[NightFlower]

The spotting is red not feeling very hopeful if I'm honest

 

[tdog]

@NightFlower so sorry hunni xx

 

[MrsKatie]

@NightFlower how heavy is the spotting? Some of mine yesterday was red as well, and with Leo (my youngest) it was all bright red and not even light and lasted 3-4 days. Praying sweetie.
