~May Testing Thread~

[Mystery26]

Crossing everything for you summertime

 

[Summertime]

Thankyou - I'm running low on test so trying to hold off POAS as long as possible, according to app I'm only in day 1 of 2WW! But got the feeling my cycle is going to be a lot shorter this month - I've got a lot of pre AF symptoms aswell. To get a BFP I would of have had to ovulate really early.

FX for more May BFPs!!

CD23 for me today and have dark pink tinged CM, don't knwo what to make of this - my previous cycles off BC have all been 35 days + so seems early for AF.

Not OPKing or temping but app predicts will ovulate today.

Got flu type bug have temperature, blocked nose, aching etc - had to take some night nurse as feel horrendous. Boobs were sore yesterday but settled down today.

Got the feeling I could be out and have had cramping xx

I have had cramping since last Wednesday, was convinced AF was coming. I literally saw that jelly stuff and thought, I'm fertile. Then we went away for our anniversary. I never thought after all the months of tracking, that the month I don't bother it happens! Best of luck xx

Hoping you get a BFP Summertime!

Thats quite similar to me, I ovulated earlier than expected so hoping my cycle is shorter - although obviously not wanting AF to arrive!
Only really 4dpo so going to hold off another week at least before even thinking about testing. Trying with all my might not to symptom spot loll
Good luck! x

Congrats on all the BFP's ladies!! Absolutely thrilled for all of you!!

I'm still hanging in here. Still no AF and it was due 3 weeks ago today! Had my doctor's appointment last Wednesday and she did a pregnancy test, which was negative, of course *eyeroll*. To be honest her attitude towards it really annoyed me! She outright said "ah women can skip a month for a number of reasons. If you miss this month too come back and we'll do bloods then".

Kinda felt spoken down to, like my concerns weren't valid.

Ok, sorry. Rant over. Haha. Congrats again girls xx

 

[Summertime]

Thanks guys I've got a flu like big came on really bad toda so zero chance of anymore BDing now! Been feeling to bad to worry about looking for CM and obsessive symptom spotting!!

L&P definitely think my cycle are getting shorter each month, good news as less time until in the 2WW!

Tax - sorry to hear about the doctors, from what I've read on here the majority seem to be quite submissive, my friend had t had a period for 3 moths and still got brushed off. Hope AF arrived soon or even better you get a lovely BFP xx

 

[KatD]

sorry to hear about the doctor Taz. You have every right to be concerned, I just think they see so many people that they forget it might be the 100th time they see it but for you it's a first and it's really personal. Think they over work them, really. I really hope you get sorted and that if you aren't pregnant AF will arrive so that you can start a new cycle.

Yes ST I am hoping my cycles get shorter. How are you feeling now?

I am glad to have a trip to look forward to this weekend to break up and distract from the 2WW. Have realised there is not much point symptom spotting anyway this month as it just drives me crazy. Usually by now I would be lurking on the symptom spotters anonymous thread lol! Last month I had what I thought was implantation bleeding, severely sore boobs (like something I never experienced before), runny nose/cold, heightened smell, just felt out of sorts, e.t.c. and there was nothing came of it so if I get these symptoms again I wont think too much of them.

Still 2 weeks left of May so FX for more BFPS ladies xx

The only thing that's helped me in the TWW is keeping occupied. I went on two city breaks lol. You can drive yourself mad otherwise. As far as symptoms, I literally had nothing. I was late but all signs were pointing to AF. The only thing that I did notice was an aversion to potato salad, I normally love it! I woke up hot, wide awake with a cold and sore throat, just thought I was getting poorly. I had cramps, backache, achy boob's but all normal for me. Good luck x

Well had 1 day of spotting pink cm then nothing today - I guess it could of been ovulation related as I had cramping aswell and sore boobs - if it was then I'm definitely out as haven't been DTD due to feeling terrible - my hubby said I must be ill if I don't want to be BD at the fertile time!

No expectation for this month will just wait and see what happens - think only having 2 tests and no ICs in the house helps as get too tempted to test with the ICs otherwise!

 

[Loveandpeace]

Thanks Carly, that gives lots of us hope! Wishing you a healthy 9 months ahead xxx

That sucks summertime, you never know though, you could have already ovulated and maybe the swimmers were waiting in time for the egg! x

Thank you sweetheart, i still cant quite believe it!

[MoominGirl]

First of all - congrats to all those who got their BFPs!!

Hugs to those who are out this month.

Can I be put down for the 28th? It's my best guess as no OPKs this month as we were on holiday and I decided not to bother. Hoping it brings us luck!

My husband is of Irish decent, so his mums thrilled we conceived a baby there. Got to give it a good strong irish name apparently thank you, still isn't real to me!
Do it, get out as a couple, enjoy each other, get merry, have some sexy sex and not the ten minute baby making kind
You'll have an idea as to when you ovulate now from doing all that anyway. We would BD every 2/3 days leading up to the strong line, we would then go for it there and then, like every day for about 3/4 days, but then letting it dwindle. I reckon It happened in the days after we would have normally gone for it, though obviously i cant be sure x
