Trying before AF?

[vietmamsie]

you think? I was wondering when I should use it. It says 5 days before, But I figure the longer you wait the better, right? Especially with a digital, no line analysis for a real squinter.

Will test again tomorrow and try to hold out for the FRER until AF is good and late. I'm getting a little excited.

 

[aknqtpie]

I think so.. See what your Korean test shows you.

I see a really obvious line I don't see why you would doubt that!?!? It's clearly there! I know you don't want to be disappointed if you got a faint line with this brand before but I would defo do a frer to see. That looks like a BFP to me! Fingers crossed xxxx

more stupid spotting today...freaks me out every time!

Sorry it's scary but try to relax, think of those women who get a period every month and don't know they are pregnant, spotting has got to be normal xx

Xxx

Woot Viet. I knew it was looking good for you from the other forum. I told you if you think AF would come you'll get a BFP

I'm sorry libby Is it possible to get another early scan?

 

[vietmamsie]

don't get too excited for me yet. I have 2 tests sitting out next to the toilet for tomorrow morning. Hope I have a real answer for you guys then... Nervous and excited.

 

[aknqtpie]

Your chart looks good though.. Can't wait for updates in the AM!

 

[vietmamsie]

ok, used not one but three tests this morning. Two where just little cheapy tests. They say not to use until after you've missed af, and I got BFN with both. The third was this Korean brand that claimed I could use it before my missed period. It was the last one of this brand on the shelf and I had never seen it before in the store... sort of weird, but I got a faint second line with it. It's more obvious than yesterdays, no photoshop needed. I'm going to use a FRER tomorrow to confirm before I call it.

 

[mummy2o]

Poor you viet Tomorrow will tell all I guess. I'm still guessing its your BFP

AFM I'm going to start temping today. I know I'm 4 days into this cycle but I only get a thermometer yesterday which I want to test out. I don't think it will be good though as I always get colds :/

Update...
I went to see the Dr and he ordered a blood test and ultrasound. I had the bloodtest and while I was waiting for it to be drawn I had a call around and explained the situation to the xray people. The nice lady on the other end of the phone said to come in at 3pm.
So I phoned DH to see if he could possibly get off work early and come with me. He called me back to say he could come with me so YAY.
The Ultra sound person was a male...which was a bit weird as he didn't really tell me much at all. I asked what would be causing the bleeding but he was very vague and didn't really have an answer.
Good news is ...the baby had a heart beat and we got to see it on the screen. 174bpm and measured at 9 weeks I will try to post a photo later.

Libby - Sounds like everything is going good in there! I have heard of a lot of women who have spotting throughout their pregnancies. I think it's pretty common. Some women even continue to get heavy "periods" through the 9 months. GL

 

[aknqtpie]

Libby - glad to hear baby is tucked away safe and sound

Viet - fingers crossed!!!!


AFM - bleeding seems to have stopped, giving it a couple days to make sure it stays away, and then gonna start trying! Yay! Had blood done yesterday, so we will see what it says.

I caved in and tested this morning (9dpo) and pretty sure its bfn...but of course I swear I have line eye when I hold it a certain angle in the right light!!!

Argh gotta hold off a couple of days really but will probably test tomorrow!

 

[vietmamsie]

Went to bed with a killer headache, woke up this morning with a migraine. Feel awful. On top of it all my temp shifted down below coverline. Didn't use my FRER because I figure I'm out and AF will arrive later today - right on time.

Looked back at the previous tests again. There is no question that second lines showed up. They are there, faint but clear as day. What kind of cruel test makers do something like that? I feel like giving up. Think I might want to take a cycle off.

 

[aknqtpie]

Sorry viet

 

[Libbysmum]

How frustrating viet!

 

[mummy2o]

Sorry to hear that Viet Sounds like a good plan. Takes stress from you.

Thats good news Libby. This bean seems to be doing really well.

Aknqtpie: I'm going have to start calling you Pie or something as I can't never remember how to spell your name! But thats good the bleeding has stopped. It seemed to go on an awfully long time. You going to try this cycle?

Wow awesome thread! too many pages to read with LO running around!

I just had a m/c nov. 19th...I should be around cd12 today. Got a faint opk today. My opks fade in darker and darker. So hopefully O'ing this weekend!!!

I see alot of the ladies in the beg. pages are now pregnant! So i assume trying before af worked for some ladies. Good luck everyone!
