February Cherubs | Testing Thread

[Pink.Rose]

@jellybeanxx thanks. I know I probably sound like a nut case right now, haha but I really hope it means something!

 

[josephine3]

@HalfricanMa ooh I see that! I know what you mean indents/evaps are annoying but sometimes it's nice to at least have something to look at lol.
@Emsabub I see your frer too!

Fxd for you both the bfps really are rolling in this month x

 

[josephine3]

@Pink.Rose they sound like lovely dreams x

 

[NightFlower]

@Laurabub84 sorry you’re feeling out, it’s definitely one of the worst and best parts of charting. It does tend to either give you hope or completely take it away. I always end up testing anyway as well!

@NightFlower do you usually get midcycle spotting? I’ve been getting it around CD12 the last few cycles. The only cause I can find on doctor google is a hormone shift!

@NDH I hope that’s a sign of some mega ovulation for you!

@Pink.Rose oh wow! I hope those visions and dreams become a reality for you soon!

@HalfricanMa ooh I see that!!

@xZoeyx hope you’re okay, it can be quite common to get spotting but I’m sure you know that and it’s easier to say not to worry than it is not to worry!

Another temp rise for me today. That’s the second one and my chart is starting to look ovulatory. The cheapy OPKs are even fainter and the digi was still a flashing smiley. If I get another temp rise tomorrow I’ll consider myself in the TWW but I’d feel more confident if I’d had a proper positive OPK!

Sometimes I get pink CM, never red blood. Was odd.
Hope this cycle is the one for you..FX

Thanks everyone. No more spotting my I've been uncomfortable in my stomach now for like 2 days. Pain in the right side for a few hours on Tuesday and then tuesday night, Wednesday day and night I've been uncomfortable, pain on and off, achiness, just not feeling right.

I'll give it another week before I see a GP as I'm not even 5 weeks so at this point there is nothing they can do. I just feel different this time, absolutely no pregnancy symptoms either whereas the last 4 pregnancies I've been hit with them straight away. Especially severe sickness.

I still have hope, I'm not writing myself off yet! Maybe this will all turn out to be absolutely fine but I just feel pessimistic right now!

 

[josephine3]

@xZoeyx great news about no more spotting hope the weird feelings subside x
@NightFlower hope this is your month I'm always really rooting for you and the other lttc ladies x

xZoeyx here's the link to the October due date group on here
*September Sapphires/October Opals 2023*

Emsabub I can't see the line but my phone sucks and I don't have my glasses on so I'm half blind. I hope for good progression tomorrow so I can add your name to the BFP list

Laura I'm sorry you're not feeling hopeful after another bfn


I had bad cramping all day yesterday. My usual mittelschmerz only lasts a few minutes and isn't that painful, but this cramping had me nearly doubled over and lasted a couple hours. Not sure if it was super strong ovulation or something else . My temp *is* up this morning. It's not above my usual coverline but it is the highest temp of this cycle so we'll see what tomorrow's temps bring. We didn't BD yesterday but did the two days before. I'm about to wake hubby

good luck hun

Thanks for looking! Im hopeful but its early so i cant tell if its an indent. I havent had these ever give me an indent. Strangely i’ve wanted even at least an indent to get excited and last month period started at 7dpo so i never even had a chance to test! Lol
I’m excited to see what happens with my temp & tests later this week. This is how that dried:

I hope your next test is an obvious bfp. Keeping everything crossed for you

Hi All!

Sorry I’ve been MIA, I read the chat every single day but so tired by the evening once my whirlwind 3yo is asleep!
Congratulations on so many BFPs in here, and I’m so sorry for those who are still TTC.

I’m feeling so deflated this cycle, I just don’t feel pregnant, I’m about 6/7DPO I can’t pinpoint my exact O as I didn’t temp this cycle. I’ve trusted my Flo App and I feel like I’ve got it so wrong and I O’d later than anticipated so with trying the Shettles method I’m scared I lost out this cycle.

I had dull cramps / flutters from last Thursday through to yesterday and now no symptoms at all it’s all just gone! So I think I’m out, I know it’s still early but I felt so much more pregnant at this point in the cycle with my DS.

wishing you luck and baby dust

sounds promising for ovulation. Hope you can relax (as best you can) in the tww

hope everything settles down hun. Cramps, pain and spotting are so unnerving in the early weeks. Hopefully it’s just baby getting nice and snug.

It's official!

congratulations hun

 

[Laurabub84]

11dpo, wasn’t even gonna bother with testing this morning but did just because and bfn like I knew they’d be. Feeling absolutely crushed. I’m so worried with how long the bleeding took to stop after the miscarriage that somethings now wrong in there to stop me falling pregnant. I honestly don’t know how I’ll come to terms with not being able to have this baby I so desperately want. Especially after getting to 12 weeks with my last baby and losing them. I just want to be pregnant again so much. My stupid body gave me some promising symptoms the last week. Won’t trust any symptoms anymore after this

@Laurabub84 im so sorry hon. It really is so devastating seeing BFN esp after a miscarriage when all you want is to be pregnant again with a sticky healthy beanie.
It’s just awful.
Ive not even ovulated yet but I’m pretty sure I’ll be out again this cycle.
Will you test again?

@Emsabub
Oh wow that was so quick congratulations

@xZoeyx
I had spotting with my son on and off from 14dpo to about 8 weeks.
Never nice to see any blood in pregnancy tho.
Hope the pains stop and no more spotting.
In answer to your question no I don’t feel hopeful. I’ve not ovulated yet but don’t feel like this cycle will be the one.
Hopefully I’m pleasantly surprised but it’s so hard to be optimistic after 3 losses and 12 months ttc!
the chemical has given me a glimmer of hope but scared I will just fall and lose again.

@jellybeanxx
I’m so happy your temp is up and praying you have ovulated and your in the 2ww at last.

@Pink.Rose
I hope those dreams ring true for you.
when will you be testin?

@HalfricanMa
I see something good luck

@Babydreaming9
Good luck hon

@NDH
Sometimes my ovulation can be quite painful.
Fx for a supper egg.


@Saradavies89
Did you test again?


Ok hope I’ve not missed anyone.
Cd9 today and af is definitely gone.
It stopped on cd6 but had spotting cd7 and a teeny bit yesterday.
Now the wait for ovulation again.
Not feeling overly hopeful about this cycle but maybe I’ll get a really nice surprise BFP at the right time and not late.
Just hope if I do get a BFP it’s no later than 10dpo and pray I will have symptoms as had none with these 3 losses. so I want all the symptoms even if I feel real green with neasea I don’t care. I want it all and a decent BFP at 10dpo no later and a supper sticky take home baby

I tested yesterday at 8dpo. It was negative. I'll try again soon

still early lovely. Hope the next few days you get that BFP.

 

[Pink.Rose]

@Suggerhoney I hope you get that sticky baby soon!

 

[Emsabub]

@Hevalouaddict that still looks good!

Thank you everyone I've been carrying the clearblue around with me everywhere for some reason, even though I haven't left the house!

thanks hun. I won’t be testing anymore this cycle. Didn’t really want to this morning because I’m like you and if I’m negative at 10dpo then I know it’s not happened. All my pregnancy’s and chemicals I’ve always had lines by 9/10dpo. My chart looks more like my non pregnant or chemical ones so I’m just gonna wait for af now. Really hope she’ll just show at 14dpo so I can move on to a new cycle but sometimes it holds out until 16/17dpo latest. Until it comes I can’t roughly work out when I might ovulate next as it can be between cd16-25 and I’ve got a horrible feeling it’s going to fall when he’s on night shifts again. Just feeling hopeless at the moment
I hope you ovulate soon and it doesn’t keep you waiting this cycle

I tested yesterday at 8dpo. It was negative. I'll try again soon

still plenty of time hun
