** May 2019 Testing Thread **

[treetrunks]

I've been having a battle with myself over whether to test as planned on Friday. Go on holiday for a week on Saturday, if I ovulated the day of my peak then I'll be 11DPO on Friday. So I think if AF hasnt arrived Friday morning I'll test, so that I can either go on holiday and enjoy myself guilt free or enjoy virgin cocktails instead haha [

I would test before for sure! But then it starts a testing binge

If you will make yourself feel better testing before you go then you should go ahead and do it. Just remember that depending when you/if the egg did implant you might not get a positive on a test at 11DPO even if you was pregnant.
How long is your LP normally?
I really hope you will be drinking virgin cocktails but if you get a negative make sure you enjoy yourself and worry about the rest when your home x

Yeah, I understand char. I just think itll give me an idea one way or the other! I'm not a binge drinker but obviously on holiday I would be treating myself haha! Last month it was 13 days from peak opk to first day of AF xx

Too right, nothing better than sipping a cocktail while laying in the sun.
Me and OH are going to book a last minute holiday for mid-June i think. Looking at Gran Canaria. I cant wait to just go away and relax.
Are you going anywhere nice? xx

For sure! Obvioisly I'd be happy to sip the virgin cocktails but if not I can enjoy the proper ones I think I prefer it this way - I don't want to test while we are away I think that's crazy. If its negative, I'll just treat it as though I'm definitely not and enjoy myself! We are going to Menorca. Never been before it looks nice! Yeah you should deffo get away. A holiday takes you away from all the usual stresses and strains! Xx

Morning ladies - how are we all?
So tomorrow is AF day, i honestly don't know if she is going to show her face or not. I don't feel pregnant at all but at the same time don't feel like AF is going to arrive either. I know i should be positive but i just got an inkling its not my month.
On a positive note my blood test results came back all normal so i am ovulating which i am happy about
Now the dreaded wait for the OH's results x

That’s fab about your blood results. There’s still a chance. I didn’t feel pregnant at all xxx

So glad your results are back and you're ovulating! I never doubted that you were but it's nice for the numbers to show it. As I say, doctors can be such idiots!

Hoping it's your month. Even after so long, I most certainly didn't feel pregnant the month we actually caught.

Thank you Lolly
Yes i have to remember there is always a chance, and i shouldn't rule myself out until the witch arrives xx

Thank you so much Moomin
Yes doctors really are idiots unless they specialise in fertility.
Praying she doesn't arrive tomorrow x

Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed that the witch stays away Char. Good news about your bloods though! Xx

Hey Char, moomin, lollipop,Natalie,
I'm new to this testing thread and some of you saw I tested a couple of days ago and got what look like BFPs,
So symptoms being, horrible heartburn, headache, a bout of constipation, sore swollen boobs with visible veins, a sharp pain after OV and lots of niggles since.
Have also been emotional and cried a couple of nights ago.
Craving so much food, chocolate cake, really fancy a Chinese curry atm and have been more thirsty. I seem a bit more out of breath?
Supposed to get another test today but have to get to town.
Any symptoms like mine? X

I had constipation, sore boobs now and blue veins, oh and i’m thirsty. I def think you should get a first response early results test. You can get them from amazon if you can’t get to town. Then you’ll know. I do think your pregnant. Those tests you did all can’t be false. The rapid results test had a very faint line but was there. Xx

 

[Kitana]

Aww that's great to have it confirmed @chattychar1990! Never really doubted it since you have such regular cycles. I hope your AF stays away tomorrow!

 

[EmmaN27]

Glad you’re results come back normal Char, I knew that was rubbish about you not ovulating. Are you going to test tomorrow? X

No testing tomorrow no, will probably wait until Saturday morning if I am totally honest if it doesn’t arrive. I always get so scared haha xx

Right ladies.
My OH had a text saying he needed to book a follow up appointment with the doctor regarding he’s test.
We are obviously freaking out massively and thinking the worse and also going to prepare for the worse because after all they wouldn’t want to see him if everything was fine.
Just really hoping whatever the problem it can be fixed.
Feeling a little down in the dumps but I know we will get our little miracle one day xx

Its could be true & tbh they probably wouldnt contact you & arrange that unless there was a problem - we had same, i remember saying to DH why would they want to call and must be bad reason & it was. But then again... It really dont nec mean that could be somit silly or it could be a case of hi guys so next steps are... Dont worry theres always somit you can do...whens your appointment? Tell them all supplements your taking cause they might / might not have an opinion on them.
