***August Testing Thread - 8 BFPs!!***

[_GG_]

Right, been to gp. She was lovely. Told me not to take any more tests as it's pointless as could show + or - and mean nothing. She's referring me to EPU for further tests to check hormones, thyroid, progesterone levels etc.

Told me that if this is a loss, let my body have a month to recover. She was quite upbeat due to the ease with which we conceive so I'm feeling more positive about everything.

Will hear from EPU today or tomorrow but won't see them until two weeks time as it's too early still.

I can see what she means about the tests, its odd that you haven't had a proper bleed if it was to be a loss. Hopefully they will scan you and find a surprise bean hiding! It is a nightmare with chemicals as you never know whether your coming or going unless you have a proper bleed.
Gosh this month was a normal period for once, no clots dropping out or gushes just a standard long old period!
Xxx

Yes, only thing I can think is that I'm possibly low on progesterone and after two losses in quick succession, I just never had much lining anyway.
I'm not hopeful for a shy bean, boobs still ache half the time but I feel otherwise completely normal. I'm feeling good about things.

Really glad you've had a normal bleed...I think that's what I need xx

Hopefully a few tests gets to the bottom for you GG

TTC I think the same probably happened for us too as we stopped CD15.

She finally arrived this morning. Never been so happy to see her arrive. On to the next cycle! Going to BD for longer this month, try to loose some weight and make sure the OH takes his vitamins.

Fx this will be your bfp cycle.

I'm a little sad that I won't be trying this month as it feels like a wasted egg, but I'm very relieved that I'll be getting investigated. X

Anyway had period cramping last Monday Tuesday as if af was on her way (cd26/27) but nothing. Had it again today so bad had to take paracetamol (unusual for me)..it's not settled but been there most of day so maybe 8 hours. No af as yet! Anyway bfn yesterday morning!
So I just don't know..still having cm aswell!

 

[Alexis2017]

I am 11 dpo. Just waiting on af to show up this week so I can phone dpcs and arrange more testing. Bumped in to an old friend today who had twins and was expecting 3rd baby in april
..and me and hubbie and the dog...no baby. I could sence she thought it was odd me being in my 30s and childless...and it hurt. After we left I felt so sad....again

 

[Ttc1234]

Aww alexis..it's so tough ttc. I remember ttc my first was so incledably stressful and you envy every pregnant woman you see. However I did fall pregnant and have a gorgeous son so hopefully it will happen one day for you. I am now ttc no2 and am experiencing the same stress as before but feel so lucky to have one! Good luck xx

 

[MoominGirl]

All updated.

Congrats to those with bfps!!

Alexis - it's tough seeing those around you and it looking so easy but remember you don't know their story as everyone tends not to talk openly about their struggles. That's why somewhere like this is so useful. I hope one day we will all get there. I also know that I'll be so much more sensitive than other people have unknowingly been to me at times.

She may not have thought it odd, some women with children have been through the struggle themselves, so meeting those of us who haven't had children yet can make them not want to rub it in if that makes sense. Having it at the moment with a couple of friends who know we've lost a few pregnancies this year.

It is hard, constantly waiting for it to be our turn. Have a hug...hope you get your bfp soon xxx

 

[KatD]

Alexis, know how you feel. It's the same over here. Turning 32 in December and DH and I have only two dogs we see as kids. All our friends have children and none of them waited till their 30s to try for the first...not like I had a choice in the matter. I'm keeping my FX for all of you. The TTC journey can be so crushing especially when the initial excitement starts to fade because cycles come and they go and nada...nothing...zilch. Hope that September brings each and everyone of you a

Did another test today with fmu and it's a fainter line than it was.. I did drink a lot before bed but now I'm doubting the first test
