* OCTOBER 2019 - Testing Thread *

[Jac2019]

Huff......
Another Facebook announcement from someone who was even trying

Got carried away and did a FRER - much earlier than I wanted and BFN so now feeling even more miserable. At least now I’ve got no more tests in the house and won’t be buying any so I can’t torture myself anymore

I hope just tested too early. Totally feel everyone pregnant or brand new baby around me too. Big hugs xx

It’s bad that I feel out before I’ve even started.. I have the flashing face on opk now so will need to dtd and cover all chances. Really can’t be bothered.. to be honest

Going by the last few cycles and my app i should have ovulated yesterday. I still haven't had a positive OPK though so not sure. OPK was negative this morning, not even a second line there. But last few days the line has been quit noticeable and looked like it was heading towards a positive. Maybe i missed it? Had a few pinchy pains this morning on my right side but that could have been anything.
Been DTD quite a bit and will carry on every other day, with the OPKs too for a few more days.
I hope i am not about to have an extra long cycle

I hope those twinges are ovulating. I have that just now. The last time I did opks if I didn't test 3 times that day I would have missed it.. I tested approx 8am.. 9.30am and 1.30pm the 9.30am was my surge and was gone again by 1.30pm. You are DTD which at least if have missed it you will be covering it and if still testing can see if still to come. We only managed 1 time in fertile window this month as OH not been feeling good and stressed with work. Just hope that can still be enough xxx good luck xx

 

[chattychar1990]

I am not positive it was ovulation as it only last a few seconds but you just can't be sure. I never use to feel ovulation, then last cycle i was crippled over in pain. Why do our bodies think its okay to play games
At the same time it would make sense if it was ovulation because it is the right time. Like i said i will carry on DTD and testing to see if a second line appears again.
I just like to know for definite, hate all the guessing.
It only takes one swimmer hun so even though you only managed the once in your fertile week there is still a chance and you are even more fertile after a miscarriage. Fingers crossed for you x

 

[Jac2019]

I totally understand you. The unknowing is so annoying and causes more stress when we are already stressed enough with whole process. I only ever get slight crampy feeling around ovulation and twinges for few seconds. Never get the bad pain (though wish I did just so would know for sure I released an egg). You are doing right thing BD when can and still testing incase this is a slightly later ovulating cycle. Fingers crossed for you too xxx

 

[Jac2019]

Hi @ZoyaYuna, I know it is your testing day. Good luck bring us more bfp news xx

Ok so I've just taken a big step and phoned up the counsellor from the hospital who sent me a letter when I had the miscarriage. I'm suffering now more than when it happened, I think I just suppressed everything and now it's all coming out. So I feel it might help to talk to them. I've ordered some one step opks which arrived today, going to try those this month. I'm carrying on with brazil nuts every day, and picked up some pomegranate juice. Probably wont make a blind bit of difference but they're both good for me anyway!

I ate Brazil nuts and used one step opks in July and got my bfp. Not sure if Brazil nuts did anything or just coincidence but I did only start eating them July and as you say good for you anyway if don't help at all. The one steps opk first time used in July and helped because never knew when ovulated so gave me a better idea. I hope the counselling helps. If ever need to talk always here as I struggled for long time after losing my wee girl in March. To be honest July was first proper month we half tried again then had the mmc last month. Here's hoping for rainbow babies soon xxx

It’s so good that you are getting help, I had just reached out for help when I got my bfp but had really gotten to a dark place and needed it. It’s so important to look after yourself mentally on this journey too and when you do get your rainbow bfp you may still have anxieties so it would still be good to talk to someone xx

Massive hugs to you my darling.
You are such a strong woman for calling the counsellor, i honestly think this is going to do you a world of good and i promise you, you will come out the other side of this dark tunnel that your in at the moment.
You know this, but i am always here for you if you ever need a chat xx

Okay ladies:
I just felt LOADS of CM fall out of me so i rushed to the toilet and it was creamy and lotiony in my knickers, quite a bit. Would this be a sign of ovulation, or a sign that ovulation has happened? I'm confused as i don't ever really take notice of CM or know what it means? xx

 

[Jac2019]

I only ever got the lots of lotion cm after ovulation, when conceived but I know it can be different for everyone and I don't want to get your hopes up saying that's a symptom. Just was for me. I would love to see you get your bfp this month xxx

For me this was always a sign ovulation was over when my Cm changed from ewcm to creamy. I hope it’s your cycle char x

 

[chattychar1990]

Thanks ladies @Jac2019 @Rainbow1234
So i had a few pinches today that could have been ovulation, could i be getting creamy CM already if it was ovulation today?
I am not one to get EWCM, just get a little watery. Have had that for a couple of days.
I think i will class ovulation as today and hope for the best. Will DTD tonight just so i have covered myself. xx
