November 2018 Testing Thread

[IVW]

Did another IC this morning after having a horrendous dream last night. Clearly my day on the maternity unit last week has caught up with my brain, that plus watching the delivering babies program (which is really good actually - kind of like homework for me). No more pink discharge today so that's a relief. I may see if I can get a scan at epau before we go on holiday or wait til we get back and go private but I'd rather know all is OK before we go. Not even remotely excited about the trip! (How ungrateful I sound I know)

Thank god for no pink discharge Radley
I think if it will give you a peace of mind try and get a scan before you go away on holiday because it will be constantly on your mind and you wont be able to relax.
Are you off to anywhere nice? (you have probably already told us haven't you) xx

Frer blinding bfp just now way stronger than last month so I'm happy to see that for sure. I'm defo gonna try epau and see if they will scan me as I will be worrying and then I'll probably pt for a private when we get home. There is a place near here and it's like £80.

We are goung to Doha, Qatar. Our best man and his family live out there now. We've not seen them since they came over for our wedding g last year. The trip is their generous wedding present to us. They pud for our flights which is huge. So we will be at their villa and I think they said about going camping in the desert and have arranged for me to do my Padi diving course (I've been desperate to do that for years). No diving for me now, lol! Or drinking. So I expect to spend 10 days watching them all get wankered whilst I'm melting in 35degree heat. We'll have to tell them as they know I like my rum and I won't be able to lie for 10 days. We get back on 1st Dec.

Window to the womb do them for £59 and they have branches all over the place, but also like Char said, have a look on Groupon as they are like £30-£40 if i remember correctly.

Yay for the FRER

OH said yesterday like me, he can't let himself get excited yet after last time as he was destroyed. although even he just said that seeing that dark line is making him believe it's happening

Wishing you all the best Radley. We are the same as you, don't want to get too excited next time we get a bfp due to the miscarriage we had 2 weeks after my missed period. Can't describe the grief we went through. Awful time for us. Next time I'm gonna be on edge for ages

 

[Kitana]

Kitana, start a December thread!

Squeeze it on for him Char...make it more sexy x

SJF already made one! Lol
I'm not a good candidate for a thread. My work often prevents me from going online!

Wishing all the remaining ladies a very dark !!

 

[Jellybean86]

Another weird thing happening to me tonight. I bent down a minute ago and had this weird pain and I get it Every time I bend over now. I must be about 8dpo. It's like a stabby pinchy pain. Praying it's implantation but I am doubtful of pregnancy for some reason

MASSIVE RANT ALERT!!

Why are men so selfish???
I warned the OH this morning that I got my flashing smiley so I wanted to start using conceive plus tonight and because we have both been ill this week we haven’t made an effort to DTD. He decided that instead he is going to go to the pub with he’s friends! Like don’t get me wrong I’m all for him seeing he’s friends but when i specifically told him tonight was a must. I literally feel like hitting my head against a brick wall and giving up.
Some men (and not all of them) just don’t understand this TTC malarkey!
I feel sad and I feel low and I will be speaking to him about it tomorrow!
I think I will definitely be out this cycle, we haven’t practiced enough and ov is around the corner and there’s no swimmers!
Sorry to bring the mood down ladies just needed to vent!!

Could you not DTD when he gets in or will he have had too much to drink to perform. I understand your frustration but you still only have a flashy smiley and not a solid one so don’t get too stressed. He probably just needs to blow off some steam and have some fun and then you never know he may be up for fun when he gets in if not, pounce on him in the morning! Don’t count yourself out yet hun. You’ve both been ill and you’re not at peak ovulation yet so there’s still plenty of time xx

Ps I know I’d be super annoyed too but try not to let it develop into an argument or a rant too much at him because then you’ll never DTD lol xx

He would definitely of had to much too drink and I’ll pribably be soundo by the time he is home anyway. I do understand what your saying but at the same time he just frustrates me. He knows how much all this means to me and how much it gets me down each month when AF comes.
I can’t help but want to rant to him and tell him how annoyed I am but at the same time like you said I’ll end up a Nun by the end of the cycle if I do xx

 

[Mystery26]

I don’t feel positive this cycle just don’t have any symptoms and I usually feel it by now

 

[Vintageling]

Oh char hun sending you massive hugs I'd be having a word aswell he could at least have made sure you had time to dtd before buggering off to the pub.

 

[GeekMaker]

I have to vent a little. I had an evap line or indent on FRER and got so excited for my last testing in October tested again on another FRER and Clearblue digital few days later...nothing. I am newer to this and my husband is super sweet and understanding. I'm about to ovulate and Im excited just because of TTC and the intimacy of course But at the same time it's like....that silly false pink line of hope on the pregnancy test last month. Darnit.

 

[GeekMaker]

I'm sorry to anyone here experiencing a hard time lately and Char I hope things get better

 

[Vintageling]

Oh geek I'm sorry you went through that last cycle it's bloody awful when that happens

 

[chattychar1990]

Oh char hun sending you massive hugs I'd be having a word aswell he could at least have made sure you had time to dtd before buggering off to the pub.

Thanks hun
I still feel so pissed off today and I really don’t even want to talk to him x

 

[Radleycat]

If be proper pissed off at him Char, so completely see why you are angry and upset. It takes so much effort from us physically and emotionally every month and it seems so harsh for him to disregard that. But at least your clear blues haven't come up trumps yet so you arent in window so can get back on track today (assuming he's not hanging and that you can stand being near him). It seems so unfair when the control gets taken away from us, I have felt the same. You will get plenty of bd in, I know you will xxx

I would have been sooooooooooooo pissed off as well - its only a small window we have and its all down to us to track and make sure we get the right days and for them to just dismiss it and say 'i am going to the pub' is quite selfish imo - the least he could have done was get himself going and have a quicky, thats all you need at the end of the day.

I remember one time the oh wasnt up for it and i was soooo annoyed but i knew me getting the hump openly to him was only going to make the situation worse so i ranted in my head and said to myself 'if he doesnt want to, he doesnt want to, i cant force him, but dam was i steaming inside

I am glad you ladies see where i am coming from. I thought i might have been overreacting but he really has upset me. He is at work today and quite frankly even if he wasn't i actually wouldn't want to go near him anyway.
I really don't understand men. Every bfn i have had he has been gutted about, but then wants to go out down the pub when i specifically told him we should really start DTD because i am near to peak day.

Got another flashing smiley today and i know i shouldn't and life is too short but i want to be stubborn with this and tell him to do one when he tries to come near me later.
Sorry ladies for again being so negative xx
