*** February Testing Thread***

Hope these shadows turn into real lines @LuvallmyH !

7dpo here also. Bfn of course. Not expecting a hint of anything for a couple days if there is anything. My daughter was 10dpo, son 9dpo so very impatiently waiting. We’re going to Florida Thursday - road trip! Im in Michigan so its about a 23 hr drive, will probably stop in Tennessee for a day. My friends own a condo in Margaritaville orlando so will stay there. Hoping I get a bfp the day before we leave.....and not af. That would really suck on that long of a car ride, but if I do start at least I could have a drink while we’re there. Hoping for the former though.

Hoping for those lines for you before your trip! It’ll be 11 dpo? Although drinking in margaritaville does sound fun . And I’m not a big drinker at all lol. Just you and DH or bringing the kids along as well?

I hate leaving my kids but I’m really craving some time away!!

@Rach87 Have a great time

 

[sallyhansen76]

@Rach87 Oh road trip. Goodness that sounds nice!! Have a great time. Hoping to see a BFP for you too!

 

[Rach87]

Aw thanks!! @Bevziibubble and @sallyhansen76

@Reiko_ctu 10dpo the day we leave. I’ll be able to test since we arent leaving until the afternoon/evening. I’ll be taking my pharmacies worth of tests with me. Haha Im not much of a drinker either, but I feel like staying at a place called Margaritaville - its a requirement lol The kids will be coming with. We have a weekend getaway planned with friends this summer kid free. We go on a cruise bi-yearly sans kids with friends and of course this was our cruise year but obviously thats not happening anytime soon. So lake house for a weekend will have to do.

@LuvallmyH I see that! Hope it gets darker for you!

I just had stomach acid fly up my upper esophageal sphincter and for a split second I thought I was about to involuntarily throw up, but then I just tasted a tiny bit of stomach acid and coughed. Anyway, this is *not normal* for me. I think my nausea may be solely from the acid reflux. Has anyone had acid reflux as an early sign pre-test date?

@Rach87 and @realbeauty86 I have ended up watching one born every minute over the last couple of weeks which gets me both excited yet terrified at the same time


I was in the store today making sad faces cuz I wanna buy baby stuff lol

Oh my gosh, I watched 1 born every minute like the WHOLE time I was pregnant with my son so I would know what I was in for lol

@sallyhansen76 25 hun


still shadow lines. Having a lot of ew/cream cm today, cervix feels a bit open too. Took a ovulation test incase but that’s negative. Tomorrow or Wednesday AF

It *can* be taken the entire cycle. When I took it only post-O (just because of when I bought it) it lengthened my LP by 2 days. Last cycle I took it all month and it brought O forward by 2 days, and still added the 2 days to my LP So I don't want it affecting my O date again so I'm just taking it post-O for the LP.[/QUOTepoxy?
Gotcha... I O around cd20 so moving it up wouldn't we a bad thing for me. Maybe taking the whole cycle wouldn't be a bad thing for me... it just makes me nervous cuz of the miscarriage risk when coming off of it. And I know taking between af and O the risk is avoided so that's why I'm thinking of starting there. I've had if for like a month and haven't taken yet lol. If we don't get pregnant this cycle I'll add it in I think for the next. Every cycle I keep adding 1 thing into the mix lol... this cycle was CoQ10.. next it sounds like vitex lol

That looks a lot like what I’m getting. I wish it was more clear for you hun.

Heartburn has been one of my first symptoms in some of my pregnancies! Good luck!

So last night I struggled to fall asleep. Felt very nauseous. Then this morning I’ve woken to slightly sore BB’s again. I’m so close to testing but I’m not sure if I want to get some tests yet or not as they are so expensive in Australia and we don’t have any of these cheep brands.

goodluck to everyone getting close to testing. Hopefully this is our month

Thanks lovely, I hope these shadows are the real thing but I’m not feeling convinced. Sending you lots of luck on your tests lovely I could see lines there too

I was doing the same thing a week ago I went to Target with a friend and we spent a good 20 minutes looking at the baby clothes, cribs, gliders, swings, strollers, etc. It did not help my baby fever


I’m realizing that since I O’d super late at night maybe I should test like I’m one less dpo than I am, since like I’m technically 6dpo around now (midnight) rather than this past morning. So perhaps I should wait until Thursday to be sure I’m 9dpo before testing. I just don’t want to use a FRER before 9dpo. Decisions, decisions.

I’m going to try and hold out for 10dpo. Lol. Pray for me lmao

 

[J_and_D]

@wrapunzel oh yeah lol makes sense lol... yes I have heard of it being used that way as well

 

[J_and_D]

I'm CD19 and no sign of a positive opk. Normally O CD20. Been testing since cd17. So I'm either ovulating even later or I missed it this month.... pretty bummed out if I missed it and have to wait a whole month to try again

 

[wannanewbaby]

2 dpo today nothing to report yet obviously, usually start noticing stuff around the 6 dpo mark. Can't wait to start seeing some bfps!! Loving that we already got some shadows to squint at!
