*** February Testing Thread***

Of course the drugstore was out of frers except rapid result!! Lame. Will have to stick with my cheapies for now!
 
I’m 2 dpo and can’t wait to test :haha:

I got an email yesterday saying that they want me to come in for another ultrasound. After my surgery they checked my uterus with a standard ultrasound, but they have me scheduled for a 3D one now too just to be sure everything has been healing correctly. The date is the same day af is due, so I should hopefully know if I’m pregnant or not for the appointment as well.
 
@AlwaysTheAunt @motherofboys I feel you on that mindset. This is the longest its taken me to conceive a take home baby. With my dd I had a chemical first month, and was pregnant with her the 3rd month. My ds I had a chemical 1st month, pregnant with him 3 weeks later. This time we started mid cycle so not sure if we missed egg or not, but then 2 chemicals in a row. Now on month 4. I know its not long and many are wayyyy longer, but for me its a bit disheartening. Worried that now Im a couple years older (only 33 but still) things arent working as good as they used to. I have all the goodies this month (opk, bbt, conceive plus) so really hoping this is it. I put March as my time limit for trying so I only have 2 tries left.
I think ahy time when you're waiting for something you really want and have no idea how long it'll take it can feel like its taking too long. Ds1 we conceived the first month. Dh had made me wait 6 months from agreeing to ttc to make sure it was definitely what I wanted as I had always said I didn't want kids :haha: ds2 took 7 months and that felt like a long time, until ds3 who took a full 12 months. Ds4 took 2.5 years. Ds5 we kept starting ttc then stopping, then starting again. When we did finally start properly I fell pregnant after 7 months, but had a miscarriage at 5 weeks, it then took another 3 years to even get a hint of a line. I thought I was broken :haha: we've only been trying since July, but we agreed we couldn't go through LTTTC again, we want a small gap, and age isn't on our side (I'm only 34, but dh is 52, he's ready to be done with the baby stage) so we said we'd try for 1 year only. I can feel that time slipping away.

I hope your appointment goes well :)
 
Tests this morning were negative. Hurry up frer!! Af is due today or tomorrow. But I had a miscarriage last month so might be a bit hit and miss xx
 
I feel out already. I assumed my O day was 11 feb based on some minor O pain and ewcm type but my Fitbit peaked on 9 Feb.
Last month my Fitbit peaked on 7 Jan which matched one of my apps prediction for ovulation and af came as predicted 14 days later.
Looking at the the charts it's been pretty similar - peak for O, then a fall and a plateau, a dip then a rise, which last month stayed the same for a day then dropped a few ready for af. Attached are charts just for your viewing pleasure ha. I've marked with line O day (assumed) and dpo and when af came last month.

So I woke up this morning and got excited because instead of my hr staying the same or dropping, it went up. I know 1bpm probably isn't significant but you know how it is, so I was all excited. Especially as it's not this high unless it's been around O. So I took a test (Boots 25ml dip stick) today which, if chart is to be believed makes me 10dpo, was completely negative. I thought I may have seen shadows but then figured it's just wanting to see one.

So now I feel out and down now. I don't imagine I'll wake up to another rise in rhr tomorrow. I have been having weird feelings in belly as well that also got me hopeful as they're not usual to me. They're not painful but they're not pain free if that makes sense lol. Boobs are sore but they are usually sore after O anyway and can vary in degrees of soreness so not looking at that in any detail. Otherwise I feel fine!

Sorry. Just needed a rant I guess and I have no one else that knows the situation atm so can't talk about it with anyone else :/

Do you think my progression looks ok?

The ladies with new bfps. Have any of you got very mild cramps? It’s been so long since I had a successful pregnancy I forgot if I’ve felt like this before.
 
8/9 dpo.....nothing to report, my test this morning was completely blank, well no shadow..... pm test slight shadow again but nothing to put on here, but I swear my left boob is killing me the more I track over these past few months the more my boobs hurt every month, kind thought it would be a pregnancy sign but I think its all in my head and I am crazy now.
 
@Tasha36089 those look great! Also, I know I'm not one of the newly pregnant but I remember from last time that I had cramps for a few weeks. Made me so paranoid.
 
That looks like great progression! Even on your frers that one day looks so much pinker than yesterday :)
Thanks. I’m stressing so much this time. With all of my others I just tested once or twice and that was it. Wish I could be that chilled now.

It does doesn’t it. I remember cramping at some point with my others but didn’t know if it was that early on. I wouldn’t even call it cramping really just feels different I suppose.
 
I had cramps walking back from the shop having bought the test and was sure I would have come on by the time I got home
 
@Tasha36089 I think your progression looks great! With my chemical I had pinchy cramps around the time af was due. My friend is currently 10.5 weeks pregnant and she also had those pinchy cramps early on as well. Her doctor told her it was her uterus growing.

Great progression. I had cramps from 8dpo and still have the odd one or two but they settled down over past 2 days.

I had cramps with all of my pregnancies its just baby snuggling in.
 
Ok lots of posts to catch up on but I have to run out to the dentist with my kiddos so I’ll just leave this here. Was hoping for a darker AM test this morning but I guess I’m just one of those women who get darker pm tests. I do chug water before bed so
Maybe that’s why. Top is yesterday afternoon and bottom is today FMU 11/12 dpo. Last night was having sore bbs and cramps. But the symptoms are pretty mild compared to my other pregnancies.
