Fall in Love! September Testing Thread

[Jules8]

@MrsKatie I’m sorry about the bfn. We all know not to test early, but it’s too tempting! Praying you get your bfp in the next few days and give yourself some grace.

3dpo…this is dragging. Lol My boobs were sore this afternoon so hopefully progesterone is doing its thing. I go Monday for progesterone bloodwork to confirm ovulation and make sure it’s where it needs to be. So happy my new doctor is checking progesterone! It never made sense that my old doctor didn’t believe it mattered, especially after I told him I needed it for 2 pregnancies.

 

[shaescott]

Well this is unfortunate

BFN today as well, 10dpo.
Still no spotting this morning though, which is a good sign, I guess, since I haven’t had my spotting stop like this in prior cycles since the spotting issue began, normally it starts and then just doesn’t stop until AF.
ETA: Looking at previous charts, my temp doesn’t normally drop until at least 13dpo, and sometimes it doesn’t even drop until after my period has started. So idk what to think lol

My friend that just got her positive had implantation spotting around the same time as you and didn't get her BFP until her AF was 4 days late!! You still have time. Plus, temps can change/fluctuate for lots of reasons!

Could be implantation dip, @shaescott

 

[shaescott]

@thencomesbebe it’s always so crazy to me how some women don’t get positives until they’re a few days late. I would be so stressed out!

@elmum hopefully! Or just nothing of significance, that would be fine too

I also only had 4 minutes for my tests to process this morning because I was running late for work, so they didn’t even get the full 5-10 minutes lol. Probably would still have been negative, but I still wonder lol. My only definite faint line was 11dpo, so we’ll see.

 

[shaescott]

Anyone get a sore throat during the TWW and get a BFP? Cuz I’m 10dpo and since this morning I’ve had a light sore throat that I thought was dehydration at first, but has continued after fluids and now my nose feels congested in the back like where it meets the throat. Thoughts? Hopefully I’m not just getting sick lol.

 

[MrsKatie]

@shaescott yes I’ve had that with other pregnancies before a bfp! Along with cold symptoms.

AFM more bfns today, I’ve used up all my frers too, eye roll. I’m ok, I just feel so dumb cause I was so sure I was pregnant. Dumb and sad.

 

[shaescott]

@MrsKatie how many dpo are you again?

 

[MrsKatie]

@shaescott pretty sure I’m 9… I just feel out. I feel really dumb, bummed, sad. Can’t stop crying! I don’t know why I’m so upset!

 

[shaescott]

@MrsKatie I always start despairing around 9dpo, thinking that I’m stupid to think I could possibly be pregnant. 9dpo is super early girl! Go buy some more tests and give it a few more days. If you don’t usually get upset like this, the emotional response could be a positive sign, just a thought.

 

[shaescott]

FF has given me quite the high score of pregnancy signs (80). Apparently a score of 70+ makes you 5x more likely to be pregnant than a score below 70, based on an analysis of over 1 million charts. Fascinating. I know it’s by no means a guarantee, but I’m going to get excited about it anyway lol

 

[gigglebox]

Awww sorry to hear about the negatives ladies! There’s still time though. I hope it turns around

 

[MrsKatie]

BFNs again! It’s the evening of 9dpo… I’ve been keto for months and just binged on my son’s birthday cake, FACEPALM. I clearly am not cut out for this ttc thing!

 

[HalfricanMa]

You are def cut out for it @MrsKatie! Hang in there. I feel the frustration though. I still dont have a period and am so desperate for even just a positive opk!
Walking my dog this evening I peed next to her just so i could pee on a stick and not get a negative!! Completely kidding; But if I thought it would actually make me feel better, I’d probably do it. Haha!

 

[MrsKatie]

Oh my gosh @HalfricanMa RIGHT?!? I can’t stand this part… it completely consumes me.

 

[elmum]

Hi ladies..I’m 8 dpo today. I have no idea how I feel about my chances….

Here’s my temp chart

 

[shaescott]

Not looking good for me ladies. Spotting started back up last night. It’s just pink/light red, but I’m sure it’s not a good sign. Temp barely moved after yesterday’s drop. BFN at 11dpo this morning. I added a “smooth temp” thing from the Oura ring, but I honestly have no idea what it means or if it’s more or less accurate than the raw temps? Meh. Regardless, feeling out. My husband’s existence is pissing me off, so that’s unfortunate. Sorry babe.

Looks good to me so far!

 

[shaescott]

My spotting seems to be increasing a little bit. I just checked my urine progesterone on Inito against my better judgement, and it’s still 14, which is close to the highest it’s been this luteal phase (peak so far was 15). I have simply added to my confusion, and have no choice but to proceed with the screaming. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHYYYYYYYY
