***September testing group***

[AlwaysTheAunt]

Seeing as I won’t be testing again until my FRER’s arrive, I’m staring at my dry test from last night like a loserhow can a BFP make you feel so happy but even more scared??

View attachment 1111378

Yes! I feel terrified that im going to wake up tomorrow and have negative tests. Its happened every time so far trying for #2 and im trying to get in my head each pregnancy is different. But im so scared to have another chemical/miscarraige.

Huge congratulations to you both!!

Congrats @AlwaysTheAunt 2 years is such a long time. My longest time trying was 18 months and that was torture. I really hope this is it for you. You deserve it hun. And congratulations @CakeBaby I hope both your next tests are darker

Good luck to those still to test and to those at ovulation.

My opk was very faint yesterday which I expected. Hoping for ovulation on cd18 which will be Friday. I usually get my first positive opk late the night before my peak so am hoping tomorrow night it will be positive and Friday will be peak. It’s still not sinking in that we’re actually doing this. I feel out of place being here, lol. I’m hoping once I get that positive opk it will start to feel real. Will still test today just because I now can

My goodness ladies...So sorry @tdog I wish I could give you a big hug right now. We have been on and off about ready to throw in the towel, because these twins are really giving us stress/anxiety/happiness, a whole world of emotions...it's hard! But looks like I'm pregnant...I've been feeling very stressed, and my boobs really hurt (which is what made me test!). I threw away all my ovulation tests/test strips, everything...I would be due the end of May/beginning of June. There's that, as well as getting a call saying they have another foster child for us, this one is 3 years old, we have met her and she's a real sweetheart, we signed the papers and we fly to pick her up next week, now this! Boy am I getting blessed these days....

Wow! That's a beautiful bfp!! hugeee congrats!!! So you would have twins to take care of and a 3-year old? Wow wow wow. How do you do all that on your own? Do you have any help?

Unfortunately, my pregnancy ended in a chemical pregnancy. DH and I have decided to completely call ttc/ntnp quits. There is just so much that we are blessed with and to keep having these heartbreak moments is really truly damaging to my mental health and I can't keep up with it. So I've decided to graduate a little bit earlier probably in the Spring with a double degree, so this next semester I'm taking about 8 classes, plus two internships...and I'm looking forward to our next chapter with the twins Good luck to you all!

@CakeBaby and @AlwaysTheAunt congratulations! So happy for you and especially after 2 years trying! Happy and healthy 9 months!!

@mbrew180 I do see a shadow on that frer or do I have shadow eyes...? You're definitely not out yet even if it's stark white. Good luck for your next test, I am rooting for you.

Ladies I’d like some real advice. I don’t know when to tell my partner. We were 100% trying and I have a lovely announcement planned… but I am just so worried about it ending the same way as last time that I dread having this big lovely moment and then it all ending in tears. I know I shouldn’t be so negative but it’s really scary to me. So basically… should I tell him now in the early days, or wait a week until I’m past my normal ‘danger zone’ so I know we can have this amazing moment with a happier ending?

For me personally I didn't tell OH in last preganacy until it was to late I had a missed miscarriage at 10+4 and was on my own for that, this time I told him the day I got the digi positive and this one ended also but I told him so I wasn't alone again as that broke me xx

This is the first cycle that I'm using OPKs. Does this look like a positive OPK to you? I started tested 3 days ago. My previous OPKs weren't that dark. The control line was always darker than the test line. Today's OPKs are the first time that test lines are as dark as control lines. I'm on day 20 now, first cycle after I miscarried at 5 weeks.

Would you wait for the next cycle or would you go ahead to try this cycle already??

Yep would say they are positive love personally I got straight back to it after I missed miscarried didn't fall till the cycle after and then lost again, but that is your choice love xx

 

[Laurabub84]

@CakeBaby maybe take each day as it comes and tell him when it feels right? Personally I’m impatient, lol.

@tdog I’m sorry about your lose. Hugs to you. I hope your dh decides to carry on trying for you

@cheerios am sorry for your loss too hun. I would call them positives, maybe if you test again in a hour or so they might be even darker. I’m fortunate that I have a long surge so I can easily catch my peak but I know some womens can come and go so quickly.
I personally wouldn’t be able to wait another cycle. Do what feels best for you. Good luck if you do decide to try this cycle

Just trying to catch up here. So many things happening at once.

@CakeBaby and @AlwaysTheAunt congratulations! Excited to see your tests later today.

I’m sorry for those with BFNs and chemicals. I am not 100% sure where I am in my cycle because of the MC at 8.5 weeks in late August. We traveled this weekend and I may have O’d on Sunday making me 3 Dpo today. Couldn’t temp yesterday but temps were up today and two days ago. Temping doesn’t stress me out, so I will probably continue to monitor that.

wishing everyone the best in their journey to baby!

I believe you should tell him. I’m sure he cares for you very deeply and wants to be there for you, through good and through bad. My hubby would not want me keeping that a secret because he knows its his job to be my rock. We’re each other’s rock.
