*March 2019 Testing Thread*

Yes that looks light to me too Rainbow but I have had a light line and a flashing smiley like that and then the next day a solid so be hopeful hun xx

Thanks! I’ll keep on with dtd just incase. OH thinks all his christmasses have come at once with all this x

 

[Mandy119]

I had the same this cycle Rainbow, CD13 I had a light line on ny OPK and CD14 it was darker than the test line. Don't know if you can compare the cheap OPKs with the Clearblue ones though lol.

Im a little confused at the moment. Ive had my positive OPK yesterday morning on CD14. According to my temps Ive had my dip on CD13, then my temps went back to the normal range CD14 (day of positive opk) and then this morning it was the highest for this cycle yet. So not sure where to set my actual Ovulation day or if i have ovulated already.
Doesn't a positive OPK mean I'm about to ovulate? New to all this temp charting so sorry about all those questions lol

Mandy the chart you are using for temping will
Automatically set the ovulation day once it gets fed some more information so I reckon once you done maybe another 1 or 2 temps it will confirm it.
If you got a peak OPK on CD14 then you could ovulate anywhere from 24-36 hours later x

Thanks Char xx
Will just keep on dtd I guess to make sure the fetile period is covered. Like Rainbow said OH is thinking christmas and birthdays all come at once in our fertile windows

I was just looking at Feb thread and it’s been such a rubbish month, only 2 bfps but somehow this has made me excited for this month, surely it can only be better! And exciting to think that some of us in page one will get our bfp this month! Eek.

Love the positivity Rainbow xx

Mindset has changed somewhat, it’s still flashing!!! Is it gonna be one of those months where I just don’t get a peak

How many flashing smileys have you had this cycle?
I swear @Lollypop79 fell pregnant without even getting a solid she had flashing throughout. But I hope you do get your solid just for your peace of mind. Xx

I’ve just looked back and this is only day 4 of flashing smile (I don’t know how that’s possible, it feels like about day 10! But it’s not) so not gonna worry just yet. Plus actually before we started ttc my cycles were typically 35 days and I could O up to day 21, I’m only on day 17 so maybe this is just gonna be a longer cycle again? I’m gonna just keep testing as I’ve got an inkling that peak will come eventually. Annoyingly I’ve only got 2 sticks left though so I’m gonna need to buy another box x

9DPO for me today and no symptoms, it has gone quite quickly this cycle though, I've been trying not to obsess as much! How are we all?

 

[babylove2016]

@Hendy1 well done for getting to 9dpo without stressing too much! I'm 7dpo... had some pink cm at 2-3dpo and now today at 7dpo - teeny bit when wiping. Away this weekend with my girls so not thinking about it until Monday.

Does anyone else ever worry about what would happen if you or your partner got sick? My hubby is going to the hospital to have a lump in his neck checked out, it's brought on all these feelings of panic that how would we cope with me working self employed and earning the most, if he couldn't work and my mum is struggling with her health having Emmie, and then add another babe to that. Ugh... the worry never ends.

Bit off topic so sorry about that, I just wonder if anyone else feels like that.

@chattychar1990 how you doing lovely?? Not long until test daaaay. XX

You would always cope, no matter what the situation, so don't stress yourself out about it. x

Yes that’s right
I got 9 flashing smiley faces and never a static. I gave up testing and got pregnant that month. Since then I discovered I ovulated way later than thought so was starting testing
On cd8 when not ovulating till cd 18
@Rainbow1234 keep going. The adverts make out like you get 3 then a static it just ain’t the case. Everyone’s cycles are different.

 

[Lollypop79]

I have to say i’m feeling really chilled and relaxed this cycle. Will see how long that lasts the closer to test day I get. Not even in 2 week wait yet but I’ve def noticed less stress

Hendy I agree that this cycle has gone so quickly. Fingers crossed for your bfp lovely xx

I hope the hint of pink Cm for you is good news baby
Enjoy your welcome with the girls that will definitely keep your mind off of it until testing day.
I am feeling pretty normal, few mild cramps this afternoon but that could be too much sushi for lunch or af getting ready to show it’s face. We will soon find out!! Xx

Thanks lollipop! I have a feeling that’s exactly what’s happening here. I think they tell you to start testing far too early with these (maybe incase you O early) but it just ends up being frustrating. I’ll keep going anyway! X

Keep going Rainbow, you will get there. The first time I used them it gave me 5 flashing smileys before I got my peak. Xx

 

[Mandy119]

It's offically March and I can't wait to see some blazing BFPs this month
Crossing my fingers that we're going to see a lot more positives compared to february, everyone seems to have the right approach this time around by not stressing too much about it so that can just be a good sign

 

[Kickingk]

Happy 1st of March ladies, fingers crossed that it is our month x
