End of August Testing Party Thread, Join me!

[Mintastic]

Lithodora! I am so happy for you! Praying for sticky one for you and a happy and healthy nine!!!

Turtle - Thanks for addressing that. I totally tested on AF before because it was a weird short light period and I love to pee on things. I posted it in a different thread but I actually did completely lose my mind yesterday and test - It actually made me late for work because I went and bought one. BFN of course but even if I somehow did magically O without a temp spike I would be either 10dpo or 3dpo based on other signs. If it was the 3dpo one though we hadn't BDd for a few days so not much hope there. I genuinely do not mind if I don't get a BFP for a few months I would just really like to be sure I am ovulating. That is what is stressing me right now.
Today I am a bit crampy but it may just be GI stuff...

I miiiiight be willing to start/maintain a Sept. thread but would prefer to wait until AF starts for me first. If anyone else wants to start one first please go ahead!

Congrats Lith! !!!

 

[Lithodora]

Thanks girls, I really appreciate it. Hope you all get your BFP's soon. I'm so glad to have this thread to read other peoples experiences and worries and to be able to tell someone!

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

Interesting.. I don't use opks but I would say from your temps that you O'd just when your temp started to rise in the last 3 days or so? The books could have been picking up on an early surge but then the O date was later? I am no expert by any means.. But I wonder if ff needs another day of high temps or was looking for more fertitily symptoms along with the high temps? : shrug: maybe I have just confused everything sorry..

I agree... From your temps I would say you ovulated on sun 17th August. FF need 3 high temps to confirm ovulation, so I bet you'll get crosshairs tomorrow if your temp is still high.

Maybe you previously had an LH surge but didn't ovulate.

Congratulations lith! H&H 9 months! I think you can get cramps after implantation has happened when the egg buries into your lining even deeper!

Afm - boobs are still a tiny bit tender when I push against them. And I've had some AF type cramps on and off today - kept having to run to the loo to check she hadn't arrived early (she is due Friday).

I feel out this cycle though and so I worked out my fertile weeks for the rest of the year earlier today. I emailed the dates to my hubby and told him to make sure he makes no plans on those dates as we need to get busy!

Welcome to the new ladies! :wave:

Bing ~ I did that yesterday!! DH goes on a big salmon trip in OCT with the guys so had to make sure it's not when I'm in my (predicted) fertile window! It's good. He can go!

 

[sj1113]

I'm back for another cycle - hopefully my last - all of our lasts. Testing on August 28th.

Haven't posted in awhile here. FF confirmed O Sunday. Well with a dotted line so I guess it's not definite. But I'm 3dpo so should be able to test by the very end of the month.

Yay! Congrats lithodora! Best wishes throughout your pregnancy!!

 

[mommyxofxone]

congrats lith!

why not just switch the name to september so we can all just stay together.

 

[Julesillini8]

I know there are a lot of us in here ( and more joining by the day) but I really like this thread and want to see those who get their bfps next month. Feel like I might miss out ( as I'm not trying after this cycle)
I see why people want to start fresh with a new thread, so if you do that's cool but I'll miss those who move onwards!

 

[Mintastic]

We could switch the name and keep going but we wouldn't be able to add or change testing dates on the front page since Mn won't have time to keep up with it with more hectic work schedule.

Congratulation Lith! xx
Welcome to the new ladies :wave:
Can't we just put a link to this thread on the first page of the new one.
What do you think about prim oil?

 

[Lithodora]

Thanks so much girls. If anyone is interested in symptoms I now see that the different things I experienced last week were crazy dreams, extreme tiredness, incredible hunger, and none of my usual pre af cramps.

will definitely be keeping up with this thread and keeping fx for everyone b

Oh my goodness, congrats Lith!!!! I'm so happy and excited for you! YAY!!!

So a little update on me...When it rains it pours..

I had a call from the OB yesterday about my CD21 bloodwork. (As previously mentioned) after talking to her about a few other things she said she'd call back...so today they drop the bomb on me that they're referring me to a specialist. I feel like if I never opened my mouth about the symptoms or said the words legs and blood clot than they would have moved on to next month.
I totally get they dont want something major to go wrong and have to wait it out. But it gets worse. ..
So I call the new office and their first appointment isn't until mid October!
Are you effing kidding me?!

There is nothing I can do for the next 3 cycles except sit on my ass and wait...

 

[Bing28]

MnG - I was refered to a specialist in mid July and told the wait is 3 months which is mid October so at least you only have to wait 2 months rather than my 3 month! Just keep yourself busy and it will fly by!

I can't believe they make people wait that long! Are you doing anything in the meantime? And you're already down a month! When is your appointment? Mine is in the 15th
