Mid-August Testers

[snowflakes120]

My temp raised again this AM. Which never has happened on 12 dpo. My fingers are still crossed! Next testing day will be Wednesday.... AF would be 1 day late by then and I have never gone over a 13 day LP.

Mrs Bea - Thanks! Maybe I won't get mine til later too.

Bex - Sounds like a great weekend! I so could use a spa day/weekend!

FX for you CH tomorrow AM!!

Inhishands - hugs on the BFN!! I hear ya. I don't like being out of the norm as well. I was 11dpo when I tested too. I found this chart online and bookmarked it. It made me feel better though:
HPT accuracy DPO
10 dpo : 35%
11 dpo : 51%
12 dpo : 62%
13 dpo : 68%
14 dpo : 74%
15 dpo : 80%
16 dpo : 88%
17 dpo : 92%
18 dpo : 99%

Hey all, firstly let me congratulate all the BFP's, wish luck to all of those that are out this month, and wish those that are still in lots of baby dust.

I got my BFP yesterday. It started with the feintest of lines on a Poundland test (11dpo), followed by a slightly darker one later on, and then another feint line on a Tesco's own HPT. This morning, on OH and I's 13th Anniversary, I confirmed it with a Clear Blue Digital.

First month trying so we are overyjoyed, if not slightly shocked that it happend so quickly. It is extremely early days as I am only 12dpo today, but praying for a H&H 9 months xo.

16 dpo : 88%
17 dpo : 92%
18 dpo : 99%

I looked up online "First Response 6 days sooner False Negative" results at 11 and 12 dpo ... and the chart i looked at said there was still 23-22% chance of getting a false negative. So i still have some hope.

Plus today, i kept telling myself "Okay, you got a BFN, so most likely you are not pregnant. You dont have to have a headache, backache, and etc anymore... you're okay.. there's always next month just calm down and wait for AF"

About an hour later i was nausiated again and was dry heavin.... so um, the prep talk didnt seem to make my symptoms go away. -- Mind over matter my butt

Hi all

[Srbjbex]

Hugs to you CH I'm feeling a bit down and fed up with it all today, so I need to regain my PMA!

Lisette and MrsBea - you are my inspiration that it WILL happen!!!

 

[MrsBea23]

CH - Boo AF sorry you are out hun, was looking good as well. You have your plan of attack so I have total PMA for you.

Bex - Sorry you are feeling down today hun. It will happen hopefully this will be your month, no this will be your month!

CH/Bex - Blueberries! the thing I did differently this month was blueberries I had read that they help thicken the uterine lining so I was eating like 3 pnnets a week. They are so good for you anyway, although don't have them with milk that kills all the goodness in them.

Lisette - I guess I am a bit crazy I think I have read way too much on google he he. It is nice that you are so positive, I will also be more positive.

Snowflake - How are you today?

Joeybrooks - Congrats that is great news.

Good luck to everyone else that is still waiting to test.

The places I have checked says I am due 23 April 2012. It just seems so strange, it seemed to happen so quickly. I am obviously delighted and would much rather have it this way than still trying this time next year, but it is a lot to get my head around.

I wonder when it actually sinks in????

 

[MrsVaughan]

BFN today, kind of saw it coming tho..

CONGRATS to the ladies with their BFP wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months

Good luck to everyone else

 

[CHDickey]

Thanks guys, I am sorry for all the craziness, but this was just out of the ordinary for me! I am positive and ready to be back at work starting today! Hopefully this will cause me not to over analyze everything little thing! I really just want relax this week and next and enjoy the whole process with my DH. I have read so much about how stress can really take a negative effect on the ttc process. I am really good at stressing myself out. I was diagnosed with anxiety 2 years ago, no wonder I am hyper sensitive about everything!

Bex keep your head up, we will get that BFP soon!! Much luck to all in their journeys of ttc and their 9 months!! I am holding on to Bea and lisette's PMA!!!

Have a wonderful day ladies, and I will check in with you this evening!!

 

[CHDickey]

Joeybrooks- I have heard many women say when they hear the heart beat!! Your due date is the day before my 2 year wedding anniversary!!! Good luck on your 9 month journey!!

Keep your head up MrsVaughan! There are still quite a few of us still in the hunt and to the ladies who did receive their BFP, they are so uplifting and a blessing to have on this thread! They keep our PMA up! Stick around!!
