*** February Testing Thread***

kiki what dpo are you now?

I am - I believe 8 dpo. Unless of course I just didn't actually ovulate the cycle - which I don't think was the case! On all 4 of my previous pregnancies I had light positives by 10dpo, and it was much clearer by 11dpo. I don't want to be guessing this time around. Lol
 
Update. Went to dr today. She said since I’m having a regular period. I don’t need a dnc. Obviously the urine was negative but she took blood and gonna test a couple things out. According to when she say I should ovulate, I have been on track with it. It just hasn’t been my time yet but she said we won’t give up so I’ll try to remain positive.
 
I’ve been prescribed 200 mg of Utrogestan. I’m supposed to take it the same way you took yours. Sorry it didn’t work for you... hopefully with your new partner you’ll have more luck! Did you have any side effects from it?
When you start taking it you'll probably want to wear a panty liner. Your dosage MAY not be enough to make you need the liner but what goes up must come down and when it does it's not pretty. It also made sex much more... difficult? for me. There was a constant residue and it made me very dry. I was also on 900mg (300 vaginally and 600 orally) a day though. It definitely gave me pregnancy/period feelings side effects. Femara didn't give me any side effects if you end up needing that!
 
I forgot to update to say I'm out.
Think I'm gonna take a little break for a few months, just until I've had my Covid vaccine, whenever that might be.
I've just turned 39 and it feels like this ttc battle is slowly slipping away from me.
We literally had our first IVF appointment booked when we fell pregnant in 2018, which seemed to give us a bit of false hope that we didn't need IVF at all. But I guess it's something we need to revisit again, before it's too late.

Sorry hun :(

10dpo for me and bfn. Every now and again something caught me eye but probs my line eyes lol

Hoping my bunch of cheapies come soon so I can test with fmu 12dpo. (no post today, so hopefully tomorrows delivery)

Still early. Have fun testing xx
 
9DPO today, im feeling quite crampy and AF due on the weekend so who knows. Ive learnt not to symptom spot. Ill probably test late tonight with FRER.
 
AF hit a week early so I’m out! Nice to be back to a somewhat regular cycle (26days), instead of 35 last time.

We are on month 8/9, my family doctor is going to put in a referral to the OB/Gyne for us.

Sorry hun! All the best with your referral
 
@Holly ttc Thanks, that’s good to know! I’ve read that the progesterone can cause some dryness, which I’m really hoping is not the case but we’ll see.

@KatVM Good luck with the referral! My gynaecologist has been a lifesaver in all this ttc. I’m sure it will help to see one.
 
Hello all!

Well - I have found myself unexpectedly in the TWW this month. The plan was to wait til April/May cycle before we tried for #3. I haven't been tracking to hard the last few months but thought I would try opks again this month - just to confirm that things are still working how they should be (I've used them whenever we've tried for babies in the past). I started testing around CD14 - typical cycles for me for the last few babies had me getting positive OPKS CD16 or CD17, with a 12-ish day luteal phase. WELL - after not getting a positive by CD20 - I started looking a little closer at my fitbit stats and my pulse as that has always reflected my ovulation pretty closely. It looks like I ovulated CD 13 or CD14 (which means I should have started opks at CD11). I can't remember exactly when we last had unprotected BD but since I haven't ovulated that early in a while I'm pretty sure it probably fell in that time frame. I also backtracked my last year of cycles on my fitbit and noticed that I had 3 cycles in 2020 where my cycle length was 27 days. It wouldn't be terrible to be pregnant now but we do have a trip planned in April and I wanted to be able to drink. lol Oh well! Out of the 4 pregnancies that we have had only 1 was more than likely conceived 0-2 or further. I think the chances are slim - but crazier things have happened!

I will be testing 11 DPO!


Good luck!

I'm glad you don't need a dnc. That's great news ❤️

I'm sorry AF arrived :(
Good luck with the referral ❤️
 
I'm gonna have this with ds2. He was fine with ds3 as he wanted another sibling but he does not want another. Lol. I'm expecting sulking.

ohhhh that'll be me if we have a 4th. Ds3 is a mama's boy and especially recently, he's been quite clingy! We co-slept longer than the others, he likes to be held the most, he's just overall a guy that likes affection. I feel like he'd feel slighted with someone younger in the fam...

Ds4 didn't want another baby. He cried for like an hour when we told him! But he'd come round to the idea and got excited by the time he arrived.
Yes my ds3 was a mummy's boy. He used to squeeze in between me and the others and push them away shouting "mine mummy!" Ds1 had been happy with either of us, but would drop us both for grandad :haha: ds2 had been daddys boy.
They do adjust, and sometimes ds3 will play great with ds4, other times he hates him. He doesn't understand why he's so annoying (that's a little brothers job haha) then again, ds1 used to hate ds2 and now they are good friends so I'm sure it'll work out in the end.
