Lucky March Testing Thread

[Peanut202134]

I took my other test and that looks positive as well. I even introverted the pictures! Like I mentioned, I will be taking these "positive" tests with a grain of salt. I did end up ordering FRER so will see when those come in I will maybe test Thursday morning depending on how I am feeling.

I haven't really been symptom spotting, but I haven't really been as hungry as I usually am (could be a sign! or not.) my boobs aren't sore but are itchy. I'm really thinking the bleeding I had March 4th could've been implantation bleeding, since it was an odd bleeding. I guess one will never knows

Just got a beta drawn around 3pm because I’m such a wreck, not sure if I’ll get the results tonight or tomorrow. If it’s negative at least I have a solid answer.

Can definitely see those peanut!!!

Shae, good luck!

Good Luck Peanut and Shae!
Thanks for looking everyone.
This mornings SMU was the faintest of faint lines. I do remember with my 1st Son that my Evening Urine was always better. I am going to try resist testing tonight and try hold out till tomorrow night. I just hope it wasn't a dreaded Frer line. I've been victim to those before.
I have emailed my OBGYN though as I always have low progesterone due to PCOS so best to get on the suppositories just in case.

Wondering what the next few day holds for us all x

@Mummy23beauts
I have seen your story. I hope that you have a sticky bean there.
Good Luck for your next blood draw and scan!
What a ride you have been on so far, have my fingers and toes crossed for you

Hi Ladies! Hope you all don’t mind me joining, it’s been a while for me. I’d like to wish you all lots of baby dust on your TTC journeys.

I’m 36 and TTC #3. Things weren’t moving along for me so I got a prescription for clomid. First cycle on it. I’m not sure how I feel about this cycle because the DH and I were fighting instead of DTD on my most fertile days. I got a positive OPK yesterday and begrudgingly acquiesced to , lol. I’m not sure if it was enough, but here we are. I’ve never been on clomid before but I had a lot of bloating and cramps yesterday. I hope that’s a good sign of ovulation. I’m testing in 10 days— 3/24. Hoping for the best!

Welcome! added you to the top!

 

[Mummy23beauts]

Good luck @shaescott fx you have some hcg floating around..

thankyou @WantingababyF its been a ride alright lol.. I have to laugh or I’ll cry. But I’m not holding out for a positive outcome, Iv read pregnancy of unknown locations don’t end well.

Afm todays test is considerably lighter.. these do dry darker but my gut is telling me my hcg is dropping.

@salamander91
That was me this cycle. My opk are norrmoly supper blazing but all I got was matching lines. I was so worried but thankfully had ovulation pain the very next evening and cm dried up so I know I ovulated. I think I must of missed my peak. These were mine
Hope I catch my peak next cycle.
I'm 9dpo now but I ovulated very late at night or very early hours of the morning going by pain so cud be more 8 dpo still and 9dpo tonight. I'm not temping I found it too stressful last time. Just glad I get O pain otherwise I wud be panicking I didn't ovulate.

@BrendaJ
Hi welcome to the group hon.

@WantingababyF
Hi welcome fx ure tests get darker good luck.

@Mummy23beauts
I admire ure strength and patience so much love. Still fx for you.

@shaescott
Sorry about the bfn but hoping still early. Hope the bloods come back positive.

 

[salamander91]

@Suggerhoney I caught my peak last night so ovulation will be today hopefully I might start temping if this cycle doesn't work. I've been avoiding it because I don't want the added stress but I'm nearing 3 years of ttc now

When will you be testing? Good luck

 

[Deethehippy]

BFN for me this morning at 8DPO, not even a shadow, I know its early but feel out now.
Will keep testing.

 

[salamander91]

Sorry for the bfn dee. Still plenty of time x

 

[ehjmorris]

So much to catch up on!
Sorry about af and bfn ladies, keeping fingers crossed for next cycle or test.

@Mummy23beauts sorry about the lighter test, could it just be a dodgy test? Or not enough hold?

as for me still testing opks no positive yet but I think we are gonna start trying now and hope for the best. I know I’ve only had one week of bleeding after the original bleeding from the ectopic.

The pharmacist said answer tests are the best for progression.. so I did some cheapies.
Top was this morning, bottom yesterday.

 

[swedengirl]

@Mummy23beauts your most recent test there looks darker to me!

@ehjmorris fx for this cycle!!! Got everything crossed for you!

 

[ehjmorris]

I agree! definitely darker

 

[Peanut202134]

AF came for me again today! I just had one March 4th; I pray that my cycles get regular; but I have heard that they don't for a while after taking BC out. So frustrating.

 

[Suggerhoney]

Well BFN for me too ladies at 9dpo. I normally always test positive by 10dpo so pretty sure I'm definitely out.

Do you get ovulation pain hon? It doesn't matter if u don't because plenty of womon don't have it and have babies.
See when I did my opks I tested and got a almost matching on cd10 and I tested at 3pm.
Then I tested again on cd11 and got those matching lines. I have the Femometer app and it gave me peak on that easy@home opk but only a High on the wondfo. But ive used these tests b4 and there normally blazing.
I didn't test again until 5pm the following day so that was about 14 hours after I got the matching lines so cud of missed it.
My ovulation pains were very noticeable and went on for about 4 or 5 hours and I noticed a change in cervix and cm and then got the ovulation pains a few hours later.

I've tested today hon and BFN.
It took 11 cycles last time and I'm 42 now so I cant see it happening anytime soon.
I'm not temping this time because I found it so stressful last time.
But I have downloaded the FF app and I'm thinking of maybe temping next cycle and the cycle after and then stopping it again and just use OPKs.
I know hon u been here so long. It makes me feel so bad because here I am trying again and I've had 2 babies in the space u have been trying. It makes me feel guilty.
I love u ladies so much u were all so supportive when I kept going through all those miscarriages. U ladies got me through it.
So I hope I'm not treading on anyones toes by being back.
I don't want to cause any hurt to any of you. TBH if I wasn't 42 then I wudnt be trying now I wud leave it a few years but was told back in November by a doctor that we needed to start ASAP with me being 42 and my DH almost 47.
But I feel so awful for those of you that have been trying for years

@Suggerhoney sorry you got a bfn

 

[sallyhansen76]

@Mummy23beauts Today's IC is definately darker. -xxx-
When is your next appointment again?

@Peanut202134 sorry af got you -xxx-

@Suggerhoney sorry about the bfn, but 9dpo is still early. Let's see what 10dpo brings

@Deethehippy sorry about the BFN, i just asked in your journal if you had tested, sorry didn't see you posted here.
That being said, 8dpo is still early and I think you could have had an implantation dip a two days ago. So, I think HCG is just building. Still early and you definately aren't out -xxx-
