Late July/ Early August Testers!!!

[Trying4first1]

I'm 9dpo and got a BFN on a strip test this morning, I pretty much have no symptoms what so ever except my boobs hurt (I think) more then usual but then again the body doesn't really remember pain that well so it could just be very normal.
I just can't wait to hear back from the fertility clinic and get some answerers as to why this is taking so long.

Hey! Remember 9dpo is extremely early to test so your not out at all. With the boob thing it's hard to tell. I have forgotten my preg boob pain. They seemed sore last month but was just the horrid AF for me. How long have you been ttc? We have just been a year but it feels like forever!

It's been 13 months counting this month as well :/ I'm trying to tell myself that 9dpo is early and I'm going out of town over the weekend so next testing is 12dpo I should get a correct answer by then.

Sounds like going out of town may help with your TWW and stop you testing. Even if you get a BFN at 12dpo that can still be early as I never get mine until the day after AF is due, just like mummy2o.
Have a great time away

I'm out. 😪 one plus is that the b6 seems to be helping- cycle was 28 days with an 11 day luteal which is longest yet. Going to a clinic on thurs to discuss testing. Good luck everyone!

Hi Thumpette. So sorry that AF got you 😔 but fab news that your cycle and LP was longer
Hope all goes well at the clinic for you x

Well temped this morning at the right time and temps were in line with the others at that time. So must have been varying times that caused the fluctuations. but no more temping for me now this month.
Found out just now that my friend has just had a second trimester loss. Devastated for her Now ttc isn't at the top of my list at all this month. I just want to give them all of my thoughts and love and be there for her and her BF. Life is so unfair and cruel at times

I know how your friend feels. Good questions to ask (when she's ready) are if the baby had a name and if it did refer to the baby as the name. My 2nd trimester loss son is Daniel and that's what he is. My 2nd trimester loss hasn't got on yet as they needed to test if it was a boy or girl, so waiting for the results of that. Be there for her shoulder to cry on. When the time is right let her know that you are TTC as she might get upset when you do get pregnant. Also if she wants space, let her have it as I prefer to grieve alone despite being happy face to face.

So sorry to hear about your friend's loss. Life can indeed be incredibly cruel. Great advice re checking if there's a name and using it. Xx

 

[Trying4first1]

Thank you so much ladies for your advice. I sent her a message saying that I was thinking of her and she thanked me and told me the baby's name. I havnt asked any questions at the moment , just wanted her to know that I am here for her as things would be very raw at the moment. I am sure that she will open up more when she is ready to. I will definatley refer to baby by name whenever we speak of her.
She knows about our miscarriages and knows that we have started ttc again. It may be a while before we are pregnant again, so we will cross that bridge when it comes xx

Just wanted to say that I loved the advice given here and I think it will be a blessing for me as a woman to have any of you to comfort me if am in that terribly sad, cruel and unfair situation.

 

[Trying4first1]

You are right. Everyone on here is so supportive. Love B and B 😊

 

[mummy2o]

Best thing about B&B then everyone is generally nice and supportive. Like everything a few rotten apples get through, but they generally leave quickly. I'm still in limbo as I keep forgetting to do a OPK, doesn't help that mini me follows me to the toilet.

 

[Trying4first1]

Luckily have not encountered a rotten one yet. But like you Said, I can't imagine them sticking around for very long.
Haha it will become routine soon. It is hard to remember things at times. I forgot to temp today but I think I will leave it now as don't want to see the pre AF dip

 

[everything]

I'm so sorry for your friends loss, the world can be so cruel at times
I got back from my camping trip and did a FRER with a BFN so I'm definitely out this month but somehow I'm okay with that it's just onto next month (I'm counting on late July/Early August tester tread ) with Femara

 

[Esperanza2015]

Same here. Hope I dont find a rotten apple soon.
mummy2o: that's cute! your mini me, am sure its a great company!
Good luck with getting in the habit of temping!
Hope you all have a nice and relaxing Sunday!

 

[Trying4first1]

Thank you And to you too 😊 I'm sure we are all trying our best to stay as relaxed as we can. Hehe

Hi ladies! How is everyone doing!? Nothing to report here. Feels like a normal cycle, just breasts less sore this month which is lovely! They vary cycle to cycle, so this is a good month!

 

[everything]

Nothing new here I've decided not to take any more tests until next weekend if af does not show. But my breasts are getting much less sore and the light backache and cramps have turned into a heavy feeling like before af so I'm sure she'll show her face in the next couple of days.
Apparently there is a possibility we might get into see the fertility doctor in as little as 3 weeks so I'm pretty happy that there is a possibility for some answers as soon as next cycle and that does make me a little bit happy even though af is coming =)

Hey ladies, im not sure if i fit in here...i dont feel like i fit anywhere anymore having embryos transferred on wednesday in my 7th ivf cycle after my first ever pregnancy and sadly ectopic last time trying to stay positive but syruggling. Technically 3dpo atm.

Sounds like a good plan 😊 only leads to anxiety I find along with huge disappointment when it's a BFN. Remember your not out until AF shows. Not giving any false hope but before I got my BFP last time I had awful backache and cramps and I thought AF was coming. What I guess I'm trying o see is that you just don't know until you either get AF or a BFP!
Wow now that is exciting news! That's very quick! If anything then you have got that to look forward to 😊
I wish my body would hurry up and fall pregnant so I know what path we are going to take. Hoping it's not another loss, but if so then at least we then qualify for testing. That prob sounds awful but I'm sure that you understand what I mean

Hi hopeful cat 😊 I'm sorry that you are feeling that way and I know it's probably hard not to. Please stay here and belong with us 😊 all the ladies here are great and so supportive.
Sorry that you have had such a rough journey with it all. It must be hard to stay positive even at the best of times. But remember that there is always hope. You never know, this time everything could work out. I sincerely hope that they do this time. How are you feeling about the transfer?
Please keep us updated as would love to hear how you are getting on
