***September beautiful beans** Testing thread***

Thank you, fingers crossed for everyone. @Sander I’m still breastfeeding my 2.5 year old as well so hopefully your cycle settles into a more predictable pattern for you.
 
12dpo and woke up to my regular pre af spotting so I am fairly certain i am out this month. (Yes i know you can spot and still be pregnant as i did with my daughter). Glad I dont have tests because it just gets me down seeing bfn this late in the cycle :(

Oh well fingers crossed for next cycle! I ordered cheapy opk and hcg tests again so hopefully no more buying frer! I'm quite mad that frer have had lines 4 months in a row now and no real legit lines on any other test at all. I wish i knew why it was taking so much longer this time around :(
 
Alwaystheaunt sorry about feeling out. Do you think you’ll still talk to your GP about getting your hormones tested?

thanks all for the input into my opks, I feel like I ovulated either yesterday or maybe today. So probably no more bd so last one 2-3 days before which might be ok. Feeling quite relaxed this month, which is different for me! Lol
 
Sorry for the spotting Alwaystheaunt :(

Lucy we only had 1 bd 3 days before and it worked out, hoping it works for you too!
 
@Shezza84uk Hugs sorry you went thru a chemical. Hope you are finding ways to heal. Fx for this cycle.

@AlwaysTheAunt Hey! nooo. Stupid spotting. Big hugs. And fx with the new cycle.

Afm cbfm gave me Peak reading today, so FF changed its mind and took away my crosshairs. I never ovulated after day 21 but I'm really annoyed that I might miss it this month! Here's my chart, in case you feel like looking and telling me what you think.

Did you notice any ewcm? You may be ovulating right now.

Alwaystheaunt I wouldn’t think much of nothing on a cheapie. So impressed you’re going to hold off till Thursday! But yep, they’re so expensive!

Has anyone had a not quite positive opk on some cycles? This was mine today (top test) and now this afternoon definitely lighter. I feel like that was my peak, maybe I missed it during the night?

This cycle for me went dark to light and dark..like really dark before I ovulated. I thought I had missed it too but luckily I didn't. Some women have super short peaks so its possible to miss it but I bet yours gets darker. Do you have enough to keep testing?
 
@FTale yep have enough to keep testing, so will with every wee! Feel like I already have though, had the ovary pains yesterday and a bit this morning and ewcm the last 3 days. No temp rise though. How are you feeling? How’s your 2ww?

@Sander oh really? How do you count 3 days before? For me bd was midnight Friday and think o is Monday morning, is that 3 days? Silly questions I know lol

It sounds like you did O. Does your temp normaly shoot up fast after O? Mine usually takes 3 days. Can you still bd? I think you may havd your fertile days covered. I am doing ok. Mostly enjoying a chance to try again. 2dpo and the only thing different is sore bbs. Usually they ache at 3dpo if at all but got an early start..lol. It will go away. Guessing its increase in progesterone and estrogen too. I am still getting ewcm but thats normal. Should clear up by dpo. I am on my progesterone pills again. No sense in chancing it. I dont think I will produce enough on my own.

I thought my hubby would be exhausted with ttc after failed ivf but he is being so sweet and taking his supplements with me morning and night. :D

Hope this cycle sees more of us preggers. If not, thwn on to the next.:flow:
 
@Lucy3 i booked an apt for next tuesday :) I really hope they will do something for me. Im hoping i won't need to see a gyno as that will be expensive/I'd rather just ttc for longer.
 
@Sander
Can't find u hon was it on Instagram or FB?
Massive congratulations on ure new pregnancy hon so happy for you. Hope this one will be pink.

Thank you! Yes I was silly this afternoon and bought this adorable little onesie with pink dinosaurs on it (my boys love dinosaurs). I figured it might be my only girl purchase if this one ends up a boy, so I might as well pretend for now :haha: Yes it was on Instagram - it still says requested for me so maybe it’s buried back in your notifications.

Lucy I think you had identical timing to us. We BD’d late Sunday night and I O’d Wednesday afternoon. So it was closer to 2.5 days if you’re going by hours haha
 
Sander that’s so funny! Pretty much same timing I hope! If I don’t ovulate till tomorrow might be stretching it. Aww little dinosaur onesie sounds so cute

@FTale I’m so glad you’re ttc again! Also great you’re staying on the progesterone. How lovely is your husband with his supplements. My temp doesn’t seem to shoot up either. But it has to go up a bit to show ovulation doesn’t it?
 
Sugger how exciting you’ll try again! Enjoy that newborn for now.

for me I am 7dpo today but it’s nearly bedtime so almost 8dpo. Boobs sore today off and on. Not much else to report at all. sore boobs is normal this part of the cycle. I also feel run down and a scratchy throat.. I hope I’m not getting sick :(
 
10 DPO and nothing but strong negatives for me. Definitely feeling out this cycle. Last pregnancy I got a positive on a digi at 10 DPO. Good luck to everyone else. <3 seems I’ll be joining the October testing thread next month.
 
@AlwaysTheAunt Hope your appt. gives you the answers you need. They are expensiv. I have to pay out of pocket for the Ob I like because they don't take my insurance. Sooo costly.

@Suggerhoney Best news ever. Love hearing success stories like that. Would love to someday be that older lady too..lol. Thank you.

@Sammyrose334 Are you sure of your dpo? Hope there is still a chance. Fx!

@Alligator I hope its a sign of pregnancy and not you getting too. Do you plan to test early? Feel better. Hugs


@Lucy3 Not by much, think its .2 or 2 degrees and sustained higher than the day before Peak or O. But I see some women go pretty high after Oing. Mine only does that if I use Clomid. Even on Progesterone pills mine takes 2 days to show a distinctive climb.

Since my miscarriage I’m not sure of my ovulation now. I’ve never used ovulation test either. It seems that it might be a little off from my app because of the miscarriage I had in June.
 
Hey ladies just an update, unfortunately I have mc.. all of you ladies that ttc month after month are true warriors, I am struggling to see past this.
Unsure as to whether I will try again but I wish you all luck x
