***December Testing thread - hoping for a Christmas Miracle***

[ciz]

Finally looks like we’ve had our peak. Cervix is open and some ewcm today.
Would you say tomorrow is 1dpo?

 

[MadamRose]

@MrsF88 sorry for your loss. Good luck for testing.

@Suggerhoney most people get between 2&4 days of flashing smilies before their peak. The EWCM is a good sign!

@Rach87 good luck for tomorrow!!!

@ciz you usually ovulate 12-36 hours after your positive. So I would say youll ovulate tomorrow and then Thursday will be 1DPO. That’s just my personal opinion

Super nervous as I’ve picked up my blood tests forms. I’ve got one for Thursday with is 7DPO she wrote 21 days in it but I confirmed that was based on a 14day ovulation. So it’s definitely Thursday for me. She also did some for during my period (if i comes - I’m hoping it doesn’t) as a comparison

Tested today, 8dpo. Could maybe see something on the frer but not the ic.

The frer looks better after it sat & the top ic is new & has a little something, but also a lot of dye run.

Anyway.... having a tough day as it’s my due date. I’ll be ok, just gotta get through it.

Hi hon id tommorow will be ovulation day and then Thursday will be 1dpo.
But some womon ovulate 37 hours after there peak. I ovulate 24 hours after my peak.
Keep doing the opks because they can go very dark and then chart ure darkest as positive.
Looks like ovulation is very close.
Good luck.
My tests are still negative but flashy smiley face so will hopfully get my peak soon.
Got it on cd14 last cycle and ovulation day 15.
If that happens again then ovulation will be Friday and I will be 1dpo on Saturday.
Just hope I don't ovulate later.

Thanks hun. I always picture you sitting at your computer with little Pom poms when you reply lol. Always cheering the rest of us on.

 

[MadamRose]

@LuvallmyH sorry you are having a rough day. I think I can see something on the FRER and the top of the IC where there are 3 together. 8DPO is very early so lots of good chance still!

 

[MadamRose]

Not sure why my forms won’t upload to my other post!

 

[Suggerhoney]

Just went bathroom and loads more ewcm its definitely increased and cervix is softer so think its getting ready and ovulation will be in the next few days. I can get a few days of ewcm but hoping I've ovulated by Friday at the latest.
Then the 2ww.
Hopfully with Xmas coming up it won't drag as much as last month.

My TWW with my DD2 ended on Christmas Day. I ended up testing 1 day early (I didn’t even consider testing at like 9DPO then) and got my BFP Christmas Eve!

I had them bloods done hon on day 4 and 21 but also had FSH testosterone thyroid progesterone estrogen and a bunch of other things. Had to wait 2 weeks for results.
All came back really good and normal.

If I ovulate on day 15 again then my AF will be due on 27th Dec but I'm gonna test the 22nd, think I will be 11dpo so shud get a decent line.
Wud love a BFP for Christmas.

 

[Deethehippy]

Luv - Thinking of you on this day. Will look forward to seeing your tests over the next few days.

My AF seems to be on the way out. Slightly concerned that the last two have been a bit less heavy (obviously it’s a great relief in some ways too) Hope it’s not a sign of menopause creeping in. Last cycle was shorter too.
Working on healthy eating and some fitness this month but we will see how that goes lol

Good luck to you all approaching testing.

@Suggerhoney can I ask how long it took your hpt to show negative again after chemicals? With my last cp it was immediately but AF was only 2 days late. AF was a week late this time and I’m on day 3 of bleeding and still have a squinter on a hpt. Just a shadow but it’s not stark bfn... I would rather not have to receive any care so just wondering if I can gather some information... sorry to bug!!

Hi hon yes of course u can ask.
With my first 2 chemicals the tests went negative at 13 dpo. I was 2 days late for AF.

With the last 2 chemicals I still had faint lines even when I was bleeding. I was on like cd4 and still getting faint lines but by cd6 they were negative.
So sorry ure going through this hon its awful.
I'm terrified of having more but just hope and pray the next one sticks.
I really don't want to test early but I'm due AF just after Xmas day so I'm testing on the 22nd I shud be 11dpo.
I got very dark lines at 11dpo on frer with my son so I'm hoping that will happen again.
If its BFN then I'm getting merry on Christmas eve and day lol.
bit obviously hoping for a blazing BFP.

 

[MadamRose]

@Reiko_ctu its definitely normal for pregnancy tests to take a few days if you were pregnant for longer hcg would have built up more hence take longer to get out of your system

 

[MadamRose]

Also forgot to mention receptionist seems to think bloods will be a whole 7 to 10 days before they are back I’ll either know I’m pregnant or be getting the other bloods before the results of these are back

 

[Suggerhoney]

The very first chemical pregnancy i ever had. I got to 5 weeks pregnant and started bleeding.
I only tested twice so don't know if the tests went negative or not.
Didn't even know what a chemical pregnancy was and went up the hospital because I was bleeding and they did a scan and just said were really sorry but u have had a very early miscarriage which is known as a chemical pregnancy.

I've had 6 chemicals in total and I lost my first baby at almost 11 weeks so definitely had my fair share of losses.
Just never had them back to back like I've had this year.

Really hope there won't be anymore.
My heart really can't take it.

Sending u massive hugs hon

Mine took 2 weeks but that was on the NHS so probably will be faster if privet

Nope on the NHS I think I’d cry if they take 2 weeks. Isn’t progesterone time sensitive if you are pregnant and it’s low?
