WTT with a view to TTC in Sept/Oct/Nov - looking for a TTC buddy!

[miss malteser]

Almost, I see something too!!! Get a digi and that way it´s either a definite yes or no without any maybes!

Sonia, I had no symptoms either apart from tiredness and extreme hunger until about 6-7weeks when the nausea started. I´ve never had sore boobs and although I suffered from nausea daily I only actually vomited maybe 3 times a week which isn´t too bad really. I wouldn´t worry about feeling normal - I´d make the most of it!

 

[almosthere]

hi ladies, unfortunately i tested with same test this am with fmu and BFN...guess you can get pink evaps after all....although not counting myself out til the witch shows and it is still only 8/9dpo...

 

[PreshFest]

Almost that REALLY was positive!! How long did it take to show up? If you can and want to, I would recommend the 'Answer' brand tests. Those have always detected it the earliest for me. Last time my hcg was 12 and it picked it up. I SO hope this is it for you!!!!

Afm...4dpo and of course I have every symptom in the book. Which in my case means nothing since this always happens!

 

[almosthere]

i think it showed up at the 3 minute mark-it was not immediate

and it was with the first response 6 day sooner-is answer a dif brand???

I am going to buy another two first response frer tonight because i think it will pick up my pos better at night and because i get it free after sending in a rebate! haha

 

[PreshFest]

Yes - Answer is a different brand. Kind of looks like a knock-off of the FRER. There's usually 3 tests in a box for $8-12..I can't remember the price.

I know a lot of people have better luck testing in the afternoon/evening than with FMU.

GOOD LUCK!!!

You guys are making my 2ww easier because all I'm thinking about is you! haha! Is anyone else left to test besides me?

 

[almosthere]

lol and i did do a ept digi but turns out they are super not sensitive like 50miu!! and that was yesterday night after my pos on the frer

 

[Soniamillie01]

Good luck with re testing hun.

I've got my diet midwife appointment for next week - seems very soon but excited!
I've got very flaky nipples today and also very small lumps appearing on my areolas. I swam this morning and it was fine, had a little niggle but passed pretty much instantly. X

 

[Elz]

Almost- that is so a positive! Test again!!
Presh- I'm hopefully testing this weekend! No sign of AF yet and due today. Though I have had on/off cramps all day and feeling very wet *down there* (sorry tmi!) Let's try and make it a full house with 4 BFP's yeah??!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Elz - u had the 'wet' feeling! Good luck. X

 

[almosthere]

ok so took preshfest's advice and tried the answer-AFTER TIME LIMIT this is what i got....pink on top and bottom-what is going on, is this common with evaps after the limit to be that pink??? hmmmm

 

[Jembug]

I don't know much about evaps, I can see a line though

 

[iow_bird]

I know I don't post on here anymore, but I do pop in to "check" on you guys every so often

Just wanted to say a massive CONGRATULATIONS to Sonia!!!!

And a whispered congrats to Almosthere!! That looks like BFP to me babe!! yay!!

Hope all the pregnancies are going well!

 

[Soniamillie01]

I don't know much about evaps but again definitely see a line, what are the chances of two evaps back to back? Having said that I had three faulty tests within two days of one another.

How many dpo are you now? When I tested at 10dpo the line was really faint, so wasn't sure. I did the digi in the afternoon and that read pregnant within about 30 seconds. I tested at 11dpo too and the line was much stronger and then at 12dpo was very dark.

 

[almosthere]

I am about 10dpo today-11 if I O'd the day of my opk...af due 4-6 days from now....wish it was may already so I could get answers-but since I am getting negatives on the cheapies and these continuous pink evaps I am just guessing I may be out-although that 4 day cramping thing really had me convinced.....

 

[miss malteser]

10dpo is still very early Almost. You may have only implanted yesterday!!! Don´t assume you´re out just yet. Maybe you should give the testing a break for a couple of days, treat yourself to a First Response digi and test again at 13dpo? Personally I wouldn´t be able to put up with not knowing if the tests are positives or evaps.

How are you feeling Sonia? Just a quick word of advice (which obviously you don´t have to take!) to stay away from the 1st tri threads as much as possible. Unfortunately there are loads of threads in 1st tri which scared the hell out of me about bleeding, miscarriages, etc which had me panicking far too much until I reached the 12 week mark. I really wish that I hadn´t read them so often. Every little twinge I felt reminded me of something that I had read and convinced me that something was wrong! The 2nd tri threads are far more positive! If I were you, I´d try and use us ladies in this thread for any doubts you may have or use specific searches to avoid finding the scary stuff!

I just wanted to second what Miss M said about the 1st Tri forum! I was so excited to be able to go in there, but it really can be quite harrowing! Come and talk to us, or go on the pregnancy buddies forum and find (or start) a thread for January due dates, you can chat to them with a much lower likelihood of reading bad things!

I still see a line on that test as well Almost, very cruel for you if it is 2 evaps! Try and wait a couple of days and splash out on a slightly more expensive test. My internet cheapies never seemed to get dark, even after I'd done a digi that said 2-3 weeks pregnant.

Hi Maz and miss m - I am feeling ok thanks, was quiet tired this morning, but have been struggling to sleep, was up at 7am and then came back to bed at 9.15am for a nap! I've been ok for the rest of the day. We are away at the moment so think the sleeping issues are just being somewhere else. Back home tomorrow.

Not had any symptoms really, I do have a continual pulling in my right had tummy and a little in my left, other than that all seems normal. I did have a really sore upper arm / shoulder earlier when I woke up but just slept funny I think.

Thanks for the advice, I will steer clear. I had popped in and posted on a few that are Jan 2013 threads and they seem a little frosty! Definitely will be coming to you ladies for advice, thank you.

Almost - agree with the others about waiting a few days and then maybe doing a more expensive test.

So I've got my first midwife appointment on Tuesday. Did you ladies tell you work straight away? I'm going to try and hold off for a little while

 

[PreshFest]

Sonia I didn't tell work until I was 12 wks with my daughter. I'll do the same next time, too. But now I have a history, so I'm scared

I think if u are ok with them knowing if something goes wrong, then you can go ahead and tell them whenever.

 

[Soniamillie01]

Thanks Presh, I'm am contemplating telling then but don't want to be treated any differently, I know I shouldn't be but I have two massive events coming up which I've worked on and don't really want to stop working on them. I think I'll see how it goes, if I can wait until 12 weeks then I will and if it becomes obvious or necessary to tell them I will.

We've just had a girl go on maternity leave and they were fine with her, just not keen to spreading the word just yet considering I'm only 4 weeks gone.

 

[Elz]

Hey ladies, AF arrived this morning and I've already eaten a big bar of chocolate! lol so I won't be joining you Sonia, sorry! It looks like Almost will though! I'm thinking we might try the smep this cycle, but then again I don't necessarily want to plan when we bd. I don't know, we'll see what happens! Hope everyone else is ok, and enjoy your weekend! X
