End of August Testing Party Thread, Join me!

[Mrs_Right]

Filled in my details into FF and looks like I've got similar results to you Canada - FF says I'm possibly only 6DPO but Ovuview (which I've been using for a lot longer) says 7 or 8 DPO
How frustrating!

Symptom update: Have been peeing a lot for the last few days but I think that's just due to my sore throat making me drink lots of water! Also cervix is SUPER high. Nothing else out of the ordinary

Interesting! If you could post your chart on here or a link to it I would love to have a look! High cervix sounds positive -

How do I post my chart?

hopefully that works!
It's in Celsius so hopefully that's not too confusing. I usually have a slow/step raise after O day so not having a big raise in BBT after O day is normal for me

11DPO BFN for me ladies. Woke up with a stinker of a headache! X

 

[Bing28]

Loobs - you tested yet? I'm scared to! Also got up for a wee in middle of night so thinking there may be no point for me! Xx

 

[Magrat]

Good morning!
Woke up with some mild af like crams and just feel out I hate long cycles and I hate how our parents talk about us having children all the time. I want to try for 6 months and go to the OB/GYN. I need to know if there is something wrong and act on it if possible.
We saw out best mans' new born boy yesterday....I am craving a baby so bad now

 

[Livvy]

Just to update everyone, I got a tonight!! 10 dpo.

 

[Bing28]

Magrat - I know exactly how you feel. I visited my grandparents this weekend and within 2.5 hours of me being there, they had dropped 3 comments about us having children! I just wanted to scream to them that it's not that simple and that we've been referred to a fertility specialist! Grrrrr 😡

I feel out too - I'm 11dpo today. I tested and plus my boobs have started hurting a tiny bit, as usual, so I think AF is on her way 😢

I just feel like this is never going to happen for us!

 

[Bing28]

Congrats Livvy! X

We should not lose hope Bing Have you found a specialist? I think I am set on one at my home town and mentioned it to my mom today. My last cycle was 21 days and this is over 30 so far. She thinks all is ok?!? I think only those who struggle ttc understant that all consuming desire. I know trying for 4 cycles is not much in ttc terms but it looks like everyone around me either have an oopsie or fall within the 1-3 month group. Wish it was as simple for all people who want children.

Congratulations Livvy!!

Bing your still early, test again in another few days and hopefully that bfn turns into a BFP! FX for you, it will happen eventually x

I can't wait for my tests to arrive so I can't start testing too!

 

[Bing28]

My GP has referred me to a specialist. I'm using the NHS in England so it's probably a lot slower than going private, but at the end of the day it's free. I'm just waiting for my appointment date to come through, it should hopefully be around mid October I get an appointment as there is a 3 month waiting list.

I just don't know what to do my next cycle now. It's my BFF wedding day on 13th June next year and next cycle would give me an EDD of 30th May, so if I was 2 weeks late and had to be induced, it would be on her wedding day and I really don't want to miss it. Xx

 

[Magrat]

I will have to pay most tests anyway but a full exam should be at most 40 euro so not so expensive here. I am just scared of what I may hear from the doctor Maybe I should just man up but this will be after the honeymoon.

Congratulations Livvy! Happy and healthy 9 months!

 

[Loobs]

Congrats Livvy!

Bing - it was a BFN this morning. I know its still early but I just feel so deflated. I've got a crippling headache this morning and I can't get rid of it. I have a feeling my PMT might show itself as a headache at first! x

 

[Bing28]

Magrat - I'm sure there is nothing wrong with you or hubby. I was convinced a few months ago that I had low progesterone and was considering using a progesterone cream. I had my cd21 blood test done last month and my progesterone levels are just fine. I think naturally we all get so stressed out over TTC that we google possible infertility symptoms and think the worst. My acupuncturist said she thinks it's all my head why I can't conceive and I just need to stop worrying and relax a bit more (easier said than done though! ) Xx

 

[Bing28]

Loobs - I got a bfn as well. I know what you mean about being deflated. I was in a foul mood this morning even though I know it was early and I'd got up 2.5 hours before to go for a wee in the middle of the night! Are you testing again tomorrow or waiting a few days?

Xx

 

[Mom2sam]

Thanks for replies ladies. Mint it's ok i too was abit squeemish still haven't been able to attempt to check cervix yet but after reading up on it thought i'd try it just once was just at opening & a tiny bit with preseed. If it works fab if not wont be trying it again lol

Bing try not to worry i was feeling same when ttc my ds but after going to docs for referral to specialist wish i'd gone sooner. Everything cane back fine & they gave me clomid which helped me conceived. The waiting around on nhs sucks but once the ball gets rolling time flies & it will happen ther'es so mych they can do now so if a problem was detected i'm sure they'l be able to fix it.
