February Testing Thread **Fabulous February BFP's!**

[Littleperson]

I had a hsg last week!!

Just caught up on all the posts and saw! Glad your tubes are fine! Really hope you have some of the wonderous HSG luck and fall naturally within the next couple of cycles!!! Xxx

Reading all the posts and ive got to laugh at everyone buying and taking so many tests! I’m the exact same!

One step ovulation tests have never let me down! That’s what ill be using this month.

And although ive had shadows and indents on their Preg tests i still swear by them as they’re cheap and detected me last pregnancy better than frer! So ill be one stepping all month lol!

Mrs bridge i would ditch those blue dye opks! They’re so hard to read properly!



These period cramps are awful and i have a bit more blood than normal which I’m happy about as it makes me feel more confident going forward. I’d even say this period is the same level of heaviness (although still light if that makes sense) as my periods before i had my miscarriage. Really hoping this is my lucky cycle!!!!

@Littleperson its the clear blue advanced ones I’m not sure I’m supposed to read the inside but I thought I’d keep them to see if there is any change. I think I see one on today’s but then my cheapies are lower. Just got to keep going I have been busy this week so may have missed it x

Do you check CM?
Although my CM last cycle was 4 days early lol! But normally it’s spot on for me!

i try to monitor it yes. It’s definitely not the norm for me I’m starting to wonder if I have endo or pcos x

I have pcos lovely. My cycles are all over the place before jan my last af was october! If your cycles are not regular deffinately go to your gp.
Im tracking this month hoping il ovulate but for me it really could be months before another period! Im on alot of meds now which is hopefully why i came on last month, fingers crossed for ovulation in feb! Im CD 15 atm.

@Mrsbridge17, Definitely high results then! I only asked because one day I got a ‘high’, I looked at the dye run and thought hmm, strange. It cleared as a very strong line, I then put that test back into the holder the day after and it returned a peak. So I wondered if that might be the case for yours, but definitely not based on the tests you’ve photographed. Hope it’s going to peak soon for you!

Sounds like there’s a few BBT experts on here to help you with temping next cycle



@night owl, Definitely a crazy journey, Do you temp? When did you get a positive OPK?



@Littleperson, Good to see another BBT charter here! I think buying a lot of tests is a sign of a true POAS addict, and I’m glad I’m not alone haha. The only thing I don’t like about the One Steps now is that they seem to barely have any dye in. The blue dyes are not supposed to be read by eye - they’re a digital OPK. I only asked to look at them because CB have missed my LH surge previously. I hope the AF cramps ease for you soon.



@Maza1993, Yay! Sorry I didn’t thought you’d had the HSG. Hopefully this cycle ends in a BFP for you!


AFM, Had a few cramps today. Some like a sharp mild pain, some super super mild AF type cramps. I'm 6DPO so hoping it's possibly implantation. Time will tell I guess!

 

[Maza1993]

The clinic i had it at called it a hysosy - its the same as a hsg just uses ultrasound instead of xray from what i have gathered! Fingers crossed for everyone this month!

 

[RainbowMama]

I really hope this ends in BFP for you, I honestly know how successful people have been after a HSG. Did they tell you your results?

 

[bellecat]

@bellecat, Are you symptom spotting? Anything to report yet? I’m getting the exact same symptoms as my last cycle which ended in BFP & Miscarriage. Hoping and praying it’s another BFP (third in a row) and a successful pregnancy this time and a super super sticky bean.

I’ve got sore boobs (which I don’t really get when af is due) headaches and I’m feeling just a bit run down but I’m trying so hard not to symptom spot but it’s easier said than done!oh I really hope this is it for you, sending you so much luck xxxx

 

[bellecat]

I’m trying sooo hard not to test (11dpo) but I can hear the tests calling me going to hold out as long as I can. Good luck ladies xxxx

 

[RainbowMama]

I also have super sensitive and sore boobs Bellecat. I had it with the last two BFP’s as well! I’m having mild headaches but I’m so tired. I notice that last time 7-9DPO everything my DF did, triggered an inner rage in me. Everything annoyed me. We’re only 3 hours into 7DPO and already he’s annoyed me... I’ve come to bed before I snap! Haha

 

[night owl]

@night owl, Definitely a crazy journey, Do you temp? When did you get a positive OPK?


@RainbowMama no I don’t temp, my toddler has me up several times a night every night lol so I don’t think I’d ever get an accurate result (why is it that I’m wanting another baby??? I must be crazy!) I do use opks but right now I’m ntnp so not really meant to be going down that path lol, the plan was to just go about our business without doing anything ‘extra’ and see what happens, but I did sneak an opk in on CD18 as i had lots of ewcm and crampy pains and got a very clear positive, the thing is I tend to get 2 or 3 days of positives so I don’t know if that was a day 1 positive or day 3 positive and I think I ovulate shortly after the first positive, dtd on CD19 which I think may have been too late but we shall see!

 

[Mrsbridge17]

Do you have pain? Xxx

Yes, my tummy is so swollen at the moment I look 9 months pregnant x

 

[Mrsbridge17]

I don’t think I’ll be testing at all this month. Just done my opk and there is barely a line on it looks like an evap. If I ovulated after that low peak we have BD on o day. I’ll continue to do my cheap ones and might use the digi in the afternoon aswell x

 

[Maza1993]

I really hope this ends in BFP for you, I honestly know how successful people have been after a HSG. Did they tell you your results?

Yes everything was clear got told there and then they were happy with everything. So plan is to start ovulation induction when i get my next AF. So this months last month of trying naturally.

My period has almost gone already! Same as every single month! Yesterday was pretty decent! I actually has some red in the toilet bowl when I weed which I’ve not had for over a year! But today I’ve had the same pad on since 9am, it’s now 4.30pm and there is basically like 2cm worth of brown on it. Hardly anything when I wipe and all brown. I wish the specialists would listen to me when I tell them there is something not right because a period should be lasting more than my measly 32-48 hours! And is so light I can’t use tampons because they’re too dry inside me!
I just wish they would pump me full of hormones and make my lining nice and juicy!!!!

but all my hormone levels are normal and my scan had ‘three lines’ on it which apparently is consistent with a healthy lining?? im not convinced though!

How long has this been going on @Littleperson? Surely they should give you something to regulate the bleeding? How stressful for you xx

 

[Maza1993]

Hey gal. Has anyone else had ewcm but then on ovulation testing comes out low?
