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

Thanks ladies I hate being all doom and gloom and negative and feel people get fed up with me writing I feel sad.
Its just hard when we have been trying for so long and nothing but heartbreak.
That doctor has really made me worry.
I still have no appointment for the scan or bloodtest and probably won't for ages.

I just really want a Christmas miracle BFP but just feeling out.
Maybe I just need to see how the next few days temps goes.
I didn't have much ovulation pain this time only that one sharpish twinge on cd14 in right overy.
But thats the the same day I got my peak.
I don't have sore boobs either which I can get during ovulation and with the crappy temp rise its got me worrying.
Sorry to be so negative ladies it's just hard.
 
@MadamRose I think ure lines look so good for 8 and 9dpo. Ure lines are darker than mine with the chemical at 12dpo and if that IC is a one step then that's a really good line because they are rubbish.
I got a line on them with my chemical in October but not as dark as that.
I tested at 8 and 9dpo and BFN and didn't get lines until 10dpo but so faint then darker at 12dpo but still to faint for 12dpo.
With my son I had a blazing positive with Frer at 10dpo.

I feel scared to test and afraid of seeing supper faint lines when they shud be darker for what DPO I am.

I'm terrified of having more losses I know my heart really really can't take anymore.:-(

Don’t need to ever be sorry lovely. We are all aiming for same result and we are all here to share our emotions through this journey.

If only it was as easy to get pregnant like Sex ED lessons made it out to be..

:dust::dust:
 
Okay now I’ve stupidly panicked myself - my test now 9DPO (second morning urine only a 1 and half hour hold) seems a little lighter than my test yesterday this is because I only did a short hold right?
Top is 8DPO evening test (5 hour hold)
Bottom is 9DPO morning test (SMU 1 and half hour hold)

Ive also attached my IC test though I’m not sure it’s that clear in the picture yet.

Don't panic lines look great try to get another 4 hour hold and test you will probably be pleasantly surprised with that test.
 
7 dpo today!! Getting harder to fight off testing. Nothing symptom wise that's giving me alot of hope but nothing pointing to af either desperately trying to hold out till at least Monday (9 dpo) and test with boyfriend before he goes to work. As long as I see no spotting anytime soon ill feel hopeful.

Oh gosh if only hon lol.
Thank u Ciz I just feel I do nothing but moan but I don't mean to its just so hard.
I'm going to go with I'm 1dpo for now but shud know in a few days for sure when it gets confirmed.
The 22nd feels like ages away its my birthday Thursday and it just fills me with dread getting older.
I've had all these problems ttc since hitting 40 so I can only imagine its gonna be even harder at 41.
I know women older than me have babies but maybe there just very lucky.

I'm gonna be so devastated if I get told I can't have anymore children.
I was hoping for a Christmas miracle and I know I've only just ovulated but I just don't feel hopeful.
We tried so hard to so I'm really hoping this is going to be my month that way I won't have to have any of them tests.
Good luck hon hope we both get our BFPs

@LuvallmyH good luck testing today hon hope they are darker

Thanks him, but nope. Hpts must just like my pee. On to January.
 
Ladies im feeling really sad.
My temp only went up slightly i have ovulated because todays temp was my normal post ovulation temp but with the pregnancies my temp had a huge rise and they were 37c.
My temp today was 36.81 which is just my normal post ovulation temp and there's hardly no rise compared to my pregnant charts.
I feel out already and only 1dpo maybe 2dpo.
I was so hoping for a bigger rise.
I want a BFP so much but dont think I'm going to get one.
That doctor is probably right my eggs are probably to old and even if I do fall again I will more than likely just miscarry.
Next cycle will be my 11th TTC and then Feb will mark one year.
Sorry to be so negative I've just had enough, we have tried so hard this cycle in the hope of getting that early Christmas miracle.
And I don't think I will be getting it. :cry:
Keeping everything crossed for you.
 
@Mum42crazy do you want me to put you down for 31st just incase? End 2020 with a bang maybe? :dust:

I’ve already been to boots and picked up 4 more FRERs. I’ve got about 6 IC left and the
4 FRER I’ve just brought. I’ve got 2 CB digital with weeks too so will do original test day and 1 week later to see progression. The that will be me done for tests!

Why not? lol I'm really not sure if I will test but put me down and I will see how I feel later in the month :)
 
I've kept myself busy all day today had a lovely shower and sat blowdried my hair all nice and then been wrapping Xmas presents.
We normally leave it to the last minute with the wrapping on Xmas eve but got loads done today.
Still need to do a bit Christmas shopping in the week and also the dreaded Christmas food shop which we normally do a day or two b4 Xmas eve.

Its gonna be rammed :xmas22::xmas1:
 
Huge hugs @LuvallmyH <3

@Suggerhoney for what it's worth, I felt SO down and out the cycle I got my BFP. So convinced I was out. FX for you.

@MadamRose my FRER BFP the next morning was way lighter than the night before. I'll find the pic... anyway, my baby is now 21 weeks and the anatomy scan yesterday showed everything looks perfect. FX all is well for you (I really think it is).
 
Here’s the evening of 10dpo vs the morning of 11dpo... look how much lighter that FRER is. And everything was fine!

@Suggerhoney dont ever feel sorry for needing to rant. We will always be here to listen to you.
The IC was a one step the thicker ones - but yes it came up this morning (I got the faintest line last night but I couldn’t get it on the camera - only if inverted) good luck hun, don’t give up hope.
Glad you got so nice time for yourself sounds like exactly what you needed :hugs:

@wannanewbaby i said I was going to hold out and in the end I just couldn’t and tested in the evening of 8DPO! Good luck when you do test.

@LuvallmyH so so sorry :( good luck next cycle.

@MrsKatie thanks so much makes me feel much better.

Me and girls had a fab time this afternoon at Warwick castle. Was nice to just yet out and get some fresh air. The girls had a blast too!
