Feeling Hopeful August *Testing Thread*

Bfn on cheapie frer and clearblue.. safe to say I'm out. I'm cd 31 today last 2 cycles were 32 days long and I'm cramping. I hope that it comes soon and doesn't make me wait. My metfotmin was upped so I feel very nauseous from that. Hopefully it will be what I need for a bfn. Tempted to make a September group once af shows up
 
Got a pic of my opk today. temp is on the way up…so O has happened or is happening. We last BD yesterday morning. So, hopefully, that was good enough. We won’t be together again for a couple of days.

:dust:
 
Afternoon ladies 3 dpo today and trying so hard to not symptom spot and keep my mind busy. Being distracted by tennis elbow at the moment so the pain of that is distracting me. It’s recurring problem and I dnt do anything that’s a Strain or repetitive to cause it. I have appointment with doctor in over a week if it isn’t any better.
Going to try hold off testing until 8 or 9dpo if I can.
We certainly need a better August with some baby dust
 
Yeah im actually thinking of going back too temping for a few cycles. I definitely know im ovulating every cycle because i get ovulation pain and i always do my temp the day after to make sure its up.
But i think i just wanna temp for a few cycles just too see if my charts look yhe same as last year.
Im gonna be 44 in December love :-(
:hugs: where are you at in your cycle now? I hope September brings your rainbow. I know it feels like things just can't feel worse, but you're strong and you will get your rainbow soon, I feel it :hugs:
Got a BFN this morning at 10DPO. I've had a lot of cramping over the last 24hrs, started as very mild barely there AF cramps at 7DPO and since 9DPO it's been more obvious and feels different to AF like some pressure feeling. I'm very bloated. My boobs ache every now and again although it's fleeting so trying not to look into that too much.
Temps are high this morning. I'm feeling hopeful although was hoping to see something on the frer this morning, it's definitely a clear BFN.

I also have my docs appointment tomorrow to discuss my blood tests.
How did your appointment go? I hope your blood test results were good.
@RedRose19 ugh I hope it doesn't come for you, I hate that feeling when you just know those cramps are periody ones though.
@Suggerhoney sorry about this month :-(
I know you're really struggling with this each month and it's incredibly frustrating and upsetting and you end up feeling so powerless.

Well I still have no symptoms, and no bfp, but also no af. 10dpo and CD29 OR 30. I've been testing like a maniac, I'm starting to feel fed up and just wish my mind could take a break from thinking about it. Yesterday early eve I had the tiniest blob of brown tinged cm and a little cramping and presumed af would arrive in a few hours/overnight/this morning- but absolutely nothing. So I felt a bit hopeful but... In all past pregnancies in which I've had IB (3 of 5)- tests have been positive and very visible on the day of bleeding or VERY shortly thereafter and I'm here 24 hrs after that tiny bit and definitely still very stark BFN on all tests
:hugs: did AF arrive yet or still in limbo?
Oh. I’m so sorry for all of the BFNs. I really hope we start seeing some BFPs and positive news in here. I think I mentioned I would be away from DH around fertile time and here we are! I got peak today and we managed to get one BD in this morning. Also, every other leading up to O. If I don’t O until tomorrow, chances aren’t as good, but still a chance! Hoping for baby dust for all of you!
Good luck!! :happydance: Glas you got some bd in to catch that eggy!

Sorry for all the bfn this month ladies :(. I hope some of you get a bfp before August is over. :dust:

That is such a dark OPK! Wow!! Looking forward to follow your journey in 10 days time!!
 
Hi ladies!

I'm on holiday now and haven't checked in BnB. The thyroid issue prevented me from TTCing last cycle, so I'm just in a waiting till AF comes zone. No thanks to my thyroid, I'm on 38 days already!!! I've not tested at all, cos we were preventing (withdrawal method), which we've used for 5 years and never once got pregnant with a oopsie. My longest cycle cos of this thyroid issue was 41 days. Sob. Just 3 more days to go and hopefully my AF comes..... before this thyroid issue, I was a regular 30-35 days woman.
 
How did your appointment go? I hope your blood test results were good.
Well I had my hormones tested at the beginning of my cycle and then on day 21 and they were all fine except for progesterone on day 21 which was on the low side (although still in the normal range). My AMH is 8 so quite low. I have a couple of friends who are less than 1 so I'm thankful it's better than that. It still all sent me into a spin though and together with my bfn yesterday I have been really upset. Me and my partner will go see a fertility specialist next.

Today I'm getting af cramps so I guess it will be here soon.
 
@RedRose19 I'm so sorry this cycle turned bfn for you, I hope September brings you your yak home baby!

@elmum wow, GREAT peak on opk!

AFM I am 6dpo and I have been testing out my trigger shot, I'm hoping it starts getting darker from here on out! So far I *think* my 6dpo pm test just *might* be darker than this mornings. Tomorrow morning should be more telling. I feel very tired and nauseous but no other symptoms, not even breast soreness. Don't mind the fuzz everywhere!!PXL_20230819_002940023~2.jpg

Oh your 6DPO HPT is darker!! Ahhh!!! Hoping it gets darker!! Did you take any medication for this cycle?? I'll start on clomid + trigger shot when I get back to Germany (hopefully).
 
CD79 & 9DPO (I have PCOS)
Feel like I'm seeing things at this point after so many cycles & mental torture
