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

@wannanewbaby That line looks fantastic for afternoon wee and 10dpo! Yay!

Today I am 5/6dpo ...Seriously I am so anxious to test! haha
Hold off hold off.

Last night I did have particularly weird twinges in the pelvic area so I hope that is a good sign. But i ve had no other symptoms.

I'll still start testing the 18th at 8-9 dpo. Even though I very well know it is early.
With my son I got a positive test at 9 dpo and my other positives where scattered between 8-10 dpo.

I'm also 5dpo hon and yesterday had twinges just above my pubic bone on the right as well.
I hope thats a good sign for both of us.
No other symptoms apart from extra cm but a thats about it.
Trying to hold off as long as possible.

I think ectopics usually cause quite a bit of pain and your HCG still goes up/stays up but I could be wrong. Let us know what your HCG numbers are. I hope you can get some answers soon.

That is encouraging thanks... I’ve been looking everywhere for info on ectopic pregnancies and can’t find anything about the symptoms I’m having... so hopefully it’s just all in my head!! And maybe my cheap tests just have a line on them? I’m out or I would test with water and see.

if my hcg is Normal my fertile days are here I think because of the ewcm.

@Suggerhoney my tummy is bugging me but on both sides not just one...

@Sun_Rain_5 welcome what day did you test?

@MinnieMcMoose i think I see something on the tests!

@Deethehippy my OPKs can go from like that to positive in a day hope y aren’t waiting too long!

@LoneWanderer you are brave waiting til Christmas Day I should have with DD2 but gave in on Christmas Eve.

@wannanewbaby FRER should put you at ease or even a digital might be better. Remember different tests are different I got my 1-2 week pregnant and the next day a cheap brand of test that was 25mui hardly showed but I’m taking that to it being a cheap and rubbish test! I will have used 6 FRERs this cycle. They help me until I get my beta HCG next week.

@Sianylw so sorry

@kittiecat so happy for you, you are a day behind me if my dates don’t get changed, they did with both DD1 and DD2

@Suggerhoney fab chart so far fingers crossed for you!!

@ciz sounds good my CM has been crazy since I got my positive test I thought it was bleeding yesterday it was that bad!

@Reiko_ctu hope all is okay

@sallyhansen76 i got so many weird twinges at 5 and 6 DPO - hope

 

[MadamRose]

I think I have everyone right on the first page now - if not let me know!

I'm just 1 dpo today and already out of my mind

From what I've learnt from ladies on here that have had ectopics the pain is felt on one side and is severe. Also there was shoulder pain mentioned or that I read about when I was looking up ectopic.
I had bad pain in my right side with my son at 7 weeks so I started googling ectopic like crazy and there was a lot about shoulder pain.
Hopefully it's just crappy tests hon.
Are they proper lines or just shadows.
I think HCG still rises with ectopics to.
I hope that helps sweet.

Hiya hon I just commented in the pregnancy test thread.
I think tomorrow's will tell u if its progressing hon. HCG can rise every 24 to 48 hours so hopefully tomorrow's will be much darker.
I've literally got everything crossed for you.

@sallyhansen76 i got so many weird twinges at 5 and 6 DPO - hope

Thanks hon hope my temp stays up and hoping to get a very strong BFP in the next few days.
Not sure what those twinges were above the public bone on right side. I've had nothing today. Literally no symptoms at all apart from a little extra cm.
Hope I start getting symptoms in the next few days.

 

[Suggerhoney]

I'm just 1 dpo today and already out of my mind

I hate the 2ww so much.
5dpo here and just willing the days away.
Mind u while I'm this early with zero symptoms I know there's still a chance. So there is that.
I always know I'm out if I don't get symptoms by 8 or 9 dpo. Then its the wait for AF then ovulation again its all so stressful.
Good luck hon

At this point I can only accept what will come and enjoy the fact I am pregnant for however long it might be. Its at least good to know we can conceive cause my boyfriend doesn't have any children currently

 

[sallyhansen76]

Throwing a question out there, been awhile since I was actively on the TTC forums.

There was a site where we could post our tests and it would invert them (Regular and inverted) and people could poll if they saw it too or not. It was baby center or something.
Anyone know what it is? HAHA

I May have already POAS...Seriously what is WRONG with me ahahhaa 5-6dpo and Afternoon urine. Gotta be kidding me! HAHAHA



EDIT TO ADD: oh I finally remembered it is "countdowntopregnancy.com"

Good luck to you too! I find so hard to relax and to think about anything else...
Also my boss told me today that he chose me to be the head of something important in may and June 2021, and that I will have to move to another city for those two months, and there I was pretending to be super happy but thinking... Oh god I may have to tell him to choose somebody else lol

@Reiko_ctu good luck with everything, I don't think it's an ectopic, the pain in supposed to be unilateral

Finger's crossed we will see wonderful lines soon!

 

[MadamRose]

@sallyhansen76 I have an app on my iPhone called “Checker” which does something similar

 

[atx614]

I am only 3-4 DPO but I am having period like cramps. I don’t ever cramp until about 5 days before AF. But I know it’s too early for pregnancy or implantation pain. Anyone have this before?

It was often my first sign with my other BFP but I cant quite remember how many DPO i was when I felt it. My last BFP was in 2013 for my son.

Awww sweety I know there's nothing anyone can do. They either stick or they don't.
I'm clinging on to hope that the fact I've had 4 chemicals means I'm still very fertile.
I'm hoping my chemicals were just a run of bad luck. I turn 41 on Thursday so I know my chances of miscarriage is extremely high.
Just really really hope and pray the next one sticks and is viable and healthy.

I've had chemicals in the past and a miscarriage at almost 11 weeks but always managed to fall pregnant again after with healthy babies.

I'm keeping everything crossed that ure little bean sticks hon.
We are all here for you.

I wudnt of got through everything I've been through without all these wonderful ladies in these testing groups.

Very true I joined this group along time ago when it took me and my ex 20 months to conceive our oldest. This group kept me sane and has with all my following pregnancies. The fact my symptoms are still so strong is keeping me hopeful. With my miscarriage I never got any symptoms at all.

 

[wannanewbaby]

I just saw some spotting after straining to poop, this is killing me I will never test this early again.

Try and keep positive, lots of women do get early spotting
