February Cherubs | Testing Thread

@1234boymum I am sure I see something, I would definitely say test again and repost!

@Laurabub84 I have always said this is the worst part of the waiting, the TWW is actually quite fun, it's the waiting for AF and waiting for it to get to O day that I find stressful! Good luck

As you all know, I tend to keep out of here in terms of posting but I have been reading all posts still!! I am sorry I haven't responded to all posts I have seen, early AM for me in the UK and need to get my kids ready for school. I still have no symptoms, feeling quite disconnected from this pregnancy altogether actually. Feeling like I am going to hear bad news when the time comes for a scan if I make it that far. But maybe I am just being pessimistic. This pregnancy has definitely brought out the more anxious side of me!
 
Told myself I wouldn’t test again, but I keep waking up feeling sick, this cycle is so annoying!!!
11DPO and another BFN! Stark white on a 10miu/ml

I thought by today I should definitely get a positive if I’m pregnant - my Flo app tells me I should expect AF in 3 days and not 4, so I’m definitely out, and also giving up on the Shettles method as I think it’s ruining our chances and all I really want is a healthy little baby. :-(:-(:-( PMS Cramping has also started now so looks like she may come earlier than anticipated, which is good in a way as I can’t wait to get her gone!!

I was going to say that! But I’m so sorry xxx
 
@Ellybean good luck for your next test. Hope you get a lovely surprise bfp

@NightFlower i hope the tww zooms by for you. Wishing you the best of luck for testing time. Fx’d

@Babydreaming9 sweetheart 32 is still young. Sorry for the bfn :hugs:

@jellybeanxx oh hun it seems like your not having much luck lately. Im so sorry, it sucks so much. I really hope af stays away so can be in with a chance to test this cycle. Would love to see you get your bfp.
:dust:

@littlewitch I’m sorry your feeling down love. Damn covid, I hate it so much. It scares me how much of an effect it really has on us when it comes to fertility. Part of me worries that it’s why I miscarried. I’ve had chemicals before but never a later loss. I know it’s probably highly unlikely but it still worries me a little. I hope it doesn’t delay ovulation and that you feel better

@xZoeyx keeping everything crossed for a healthy baby. The first weeks are so scary :hugs:
 
Cd1 for me today. Just want to get it out of the way. I’m hoping my temps are back to normal this cycle because this last one they were constantly higher than what they usually were. It plummeted this morning where as last af my temp stayed up until af finished. Still had a clear pattern but just found it strange that my temps weren’t their normal. Saying that, the last time I temped was end of 2019 so maybe they are my new norm :shrug:
I’m not feeling hopeful for this cycle again tho. I can ovulate anywhere between cd16-cd22, cd25 at a push. So cd16-22 will be between the 7th-13th March and dh night shifts fall bang in the middle 8th-12th. I don’t know if we’ll manage to get any bd in at all. Feeling really disheartened about it already. All I can do I hope that I ovulate cd16 but i think it’ll be unlikely. Guess there’s not point in worrying about it until the time comes but it’s not giving me any hope for this cycle.

I see what you mean about the shadow. Sorry there is nothing there in real life tho. It really is so so disheartening seeing BFN. Sending hugs.

I used to love the 2ww but in all honesty after a year now trying I hate it all.
I just want to be pregnant with a healthy baby. Just so fed up with it all now.
Hope it’s all good when you have your scan. I had zero symptoms with the 3 losses I’ve had now. So I’m hoping if I do fall I get a lot of symptoms.
But I’m sure all will be fine with you.
I hope so.

sorry about AF hon cd1 is always a bummer.
I found when I was temping in 2020 my b4 ovulation temps were like 36.60 and then 36.80 or higher after ovulation.
Where as now my b4 ovulation temps are lower, like 36.4 something or 36.5 something and after ovulation temps are 36.7 or higher.
I randomly did one temp this morning to make sure I have ovulated and it was 36.83 so I’m now in the 2ww.
Hoping so much this cycle will be the one but don’t feel overly hopeful.
Hugs hon
 
Two days late for AF.
Is it a line? Is it an indent? The world may never know

Still no sign of AF and the cramps stopped midday today…. Such torture!!
 
Oh Laura I'm so sorry the witch got you :(. I really hope this cycle your ovulation falls in a good window for being able to BD.

Im 6dpo today (7according to FF) so I'm going to start the antihistamine protocol today. I've been taking baby aspirin for a couple days already.

oh hun it’s the most frustrating thing when af is late. You can’t help but test. I hope you get an answer either way so your not stuck in limbo

Still no sign of AF and the cramps stopped midday today…. Such torture!!

Hugs hun. So frustrating

Wishing so much luck for when you test sweetie.
 
2dpo here and the wait to test is killing me lol 8-[
Nothing much to report :-=

Good luck to us still waiting to test hope we get our bfps soon and have very sticky baby beans.

:dust:
 
@littlewitch I hope you’re feeling better soon! As your had it before, it could be that your day fights it off better and it doesn’t impact your cycle in the same way?

@Laurabub84 I’m sorry AF got you, it’s horrible going into a cycle feeling hopeless! I hope it goes better than you’re expecting!

@Ellybean I do see something, any chance you could have ovulated later?

@NDH I hope the antihistamine and baby aspirin do their job! How are you feeling? Any symptoms?

@NightFlower time works different in the TWW doesn’t it? Hope you find a way to pass the time until testing!

7DPO here, no more spotting but my temp is on a steady decline and I’ve had some really bad cramping today. Really hoping my temp is up tomorrow and I’ll test if it is but if it’s carries on dropping this early then I’m worried I haven’t ovulated at all and my body just tried and failed. Ugh.

Ahhh @jellybeanxx I hope that temp rises tomorrow I no what it was like for you conceiving you last baby we went through the whole emotions with you xx

Good luck ladies :dust: :dust: :dust: :dust:
 
No symptoms, but last cycle I had all the symptoms including pregnancy dreams and nada, so I don't have much faith in symptoms anyway.


I really hope you did ovulate.

I do see that hon. Does it have colour?
Being in limbo stinks.

Ahhhh it’s awful when your just there waiting for it isn’t it. Hope she shows soon hon.
How many dpo are you now?

Fx for you hon.
I was told not to take baby aspirin unless u have a BFP. Even a faint one as taking it b4 can thin the lining and make it hard for a embryo to implant and stick. I do have baby aspirin but I was waiting for that BFP b4 taking. Can it help taking it earlier then hon?

@Laurabub84
Thanks my love, definitely need all the prayers I can get. I need a miracle lol.

@NightFlower
I’m 1dpo and dreading testing lol. did do another opk today tho and it was dark. Also been cramping since peak day but definitely 1dpo today as temp shot up this morning.
We have good timing this cycle so I hope we have caught and it will be sticky. Want us both to get that sticky BFP so so much hon[-o<

I hope your temp goes up again my love and this dip and the spotting is implantation fx. Be so so awesome if we all get our sticky BFPs [-o<



so ladies
I spoke with a doctor today and I’ve arranged to have cd4 and cd21 bloods done next cycle.
Just to see how my hormones are before and after ovulation.
She didn’t say anything about not trying that cycle so we will still try if I end up being out this cycle.
Nervous what the results will be. Hubby thinks they will all come back normal and I hope he is right:
Would hate to be told bad news and then my ttc days being over.
I just want my take home rainbow then after that my ttc days can be well and truly over.
we bd every other day then night of peak
Ovulation day
And again today, the day after ovulation so we have done all we can for this cycle.
Hoping for a beautiful extra sticky BFP this cycle, by 10dpo and no later.
And then I won’t be needing them bloods
