What is the q tip test?

 

[macydarling]

Supposedly if you swab a q-tip up there near when AF is due if it comes out with a pink/red/brown tinge AF will arrive soon. If it comes back clear you are likely to get bfp. Not sure how accurate it is though or when you are supposed to try it! Lol.

 

[Baby.Love12]

Thats interesting. Might have to try.

 

[macydarling]

I think I might just try it. I will let you know how it goes. 12dpo may be too early. Supposedly the logic is that your cervix will begin opening a few days before your period. When I try feeling it with my finger though I think it is still closed so it may not work. Hmm..

I was reading that it is not reliable. Who knows.

Ugh, still having super sore BBs today, day 3 of sore BBs. I know it's an AF sign for some ladies, but other than the occasional twinges i haven't had boob pain like this since I was pregnant, although it didn't occur until much later in 1st trimester. Last month I did have some weird nipple tingling which was also new for me, but obviously AF came anyway so I'm still waiting.

I thought i saw a shadow of a line on ic yesterday but BFN this morning. I don't know the sensitivity of wondfo's but i doubt they are 10mui so it's still too early for a BFP probably, i think i am 10 dpo.

AF could really show anytime. I usually go between 24-28 days with a 13 day luteal phase. I am still not even sure if we hit the mark with BDing.

I am also have some cramping today, not really like an AF cramp though, more like ovulation cramps but on both sides.

Congrats on the BFP's ladies!! And of course to everyone!!!!!!

whoah long post

10DPO is still pretty early. Hopefully it's a good sign! Your cramping definitely sounds like a good sign. I'm extra pouty and emotional today. Chalking it up to post O hormones. Deal, send me some of that energy

Cutieq I wish I could!! I'm ready to run laps outside my building to release some of this energy!!! I have a ball chair & I am literally bouncing in my seat as I type this!!!!

haha. the q-tip test makes me laugh. I find myself constantly going to the bathroom to see if i started spotting yet. AF due saturday for me and it just feels like she is on her way i hate it!!

 

[Baby.Love12]

Cutie I am doing the pineapple core thing to lol

 

[macydarling]

I tried the q tip test and it came back clear. I guess we will see if it means anything if AF shows within the next couple days!

I'd avoid the q-tip thing if I were you- there's the risk of infection from a fibre being left up there (they're not designed for it like tampons are) & it would be awful to get an infection that could risk a potential pregnancy.

I don't want to scare monger & I haven't read this anywhere but it stands to reason there's a risk so I certainly wouldn't recommend it!

Off out to buy a frer now. Uploaded a clearer pic of this mornings test- please be a bfp!!

Oops. Now Im worried. I didnt put it too far up there. So hopefully it's ok! Good luck with your test.

 

[kwynia]

i think you will be fine, they use long cotton swabs for pap smears....

 

[cutieq]

Cutie I am doing the pineapple core thing to lol

Excellent! Hopefully it works for both of us! I'm putting pineapple in my smoothies and then just munching on a piece of the core - not too bad honestly. You eat it for five days post O right?

Macy, I did it one cycle. Nothing happened but I still ended up getting AF. Typical me I probably checked too soon anyway. Hopefully no AF for you!

5_year, can't wait to find out about your FRER!
