TTC #1- Looking for buddies!

Oh dream I wouldn’t panic. That FRER is clear to me and those digis are MUCH less sensitive than the tests you’ve been taking!

Morning Gals. CD28 and 12DPO. Only took a cheapie today. Thinking about taking another FRER tomorrow. I mean I have them in stock so why not right? Heehee

That looks so good!! I'm sure a FRER would come back very positive too. These are my 12 DPO tests. The FRER was so much darker compared to those cheapies!

Are you telling DH today?

Nice!

Still waiting for my Amazon delivery. If it comes before DS goes to bed then I'll tell him today.

Morning! CD29 13DPO

So my son's T-shirt came yesterday evening so I put it on him to tell DH. He was SHOCKED. Asked me how this could be and what does this mean like 5 times lol

My cheapie looks really great this morning. I'm happy with the progression.

I ran into a bit of a roadblock with my FRER. The first one I dipped was such a dud. It came up lighter than the one I took at 11DPO but my cheapie was showing progression so I knew the test was just wonky I dipped another FRER. All tests were taken with the same FMU sample and got a completely different line strength. Just I friendly reminder I guess not to put too much value in these tests. I checked the expiry just in case but both were still good.

That's so weird!!! Yeah the cheapie clearly shows the progression and that's all that matters!!

Ahhhww I bet he was shocked but in a good way

I called my doctor this morning and got my dating ultrasound booked for Friday, May 7th at 2pm. Eeeek seems like forever away. lol

Blood work appointment is scheduled for April 30th at 6w3d. Due to thr provincial locksown appointments are pretty hard to come by. So I have to wait a bit.

Here are today's tests at CD31 15DPO

OMG look at those tests!!!!!!!! This one is a sticky one, it's got to be!!!!

Yes dream!! That looks GREAT!! so exciting!!

sunny your appointment is coming up isn’t it??

Still 2 more weeks Tb ahhhhh

I'm 8 weeks today and have done a test every week so far. This morning my test looked significantly lighter than it looked the week before. But this is also the week where most people start noticing the hook effect.

Take a look:

Top one: full strength FMU
Bottom one: diluted 10 to 1.

And one with the pee cups because nothing grosses us out anyway

Oh wow lol the hook effect is real! What a crazy difference!!

I think my need for research and knowledge on thing is both a blessing and a curse.

I am so caught up in baby’s position and having an anterior placenta (likely why she keeps fighting my constant encouragement of being in the right spot) and wanting the unmedicated labor again and not being induced... it’s just frustrating and I wish I could be in the dark about everything. Lol

Oh wow, congratulations Dream!

I need you all to give me some of your fertile-ness!

Not long to go now, right TB? I would tell you to stop stressing yourself out but we all know how irritating it is when people tell you to just relax!! Hope everything goes the way you want it to

@SunnyBe thanks for sharing! That's actually mind blowing. Good to know.

I'm running low on tests. So I'll be done testing soon too. I plan to take a clearblue weeks indicator once a week till my scan though

So I pulled my Sneak Peek test out of the closet that I bought last year before I knew I was miscarrying and IT EXPIRED FEBRUARY 2021. I'm so sad. I don't want to buy a new one. lol

I wish I would have realized sooner, I would have given it away or sold it for cheap on FB marketplace or something. Womp

Hi ladies! Haven't been on here in a while and just quickly catching up!

Dream!!! congratulations, I'm so very excited for you! Those are such beautiful lines!

Sunny- I hoping the next 2 weeks until your ultrasound fly by. How are you feeling?

Tb- 7 weeks or less! It's so crazy how fast time goes. I remember doing all the things try to get baby in the right place and worrying about labor! I would tell you to try to relax but I know it's so hard!

Steph- is your transfer date coming up?? I cannot remember what day! Eek!

Dream- they are a pretty reasonable company, I bet you can just contact them and see if you can replace it free.. I mean the worst they can say is “no” lol

I know I’m even telling myself to relax. Had 34 week OB appointment and baby is in optimal position. Said that once we hit 36 weeks it’s only about 3% chance of her moving. So I need her to stay put haha

So we don’t have an exact date yet TB, but we had our nurse consultation this afternoon, and if the saline infusion sonography on Tuesday is all good then I will start meds straight away. Aaaaaahhhh. Nurse thinks that based on her calculations we’ll be looking at a transfer around 21st May. I know my body doesn’t really work properly though so we can add on a few weeks leeway for good measure

Yay exciting times Steph. Can't wait!

Tb, it's a blessing and a curse for sure! I think that for people like you and me, if we had no way to look things up we might *think* we'd be more happy and relaxed... but in reality, I think we'd be worried sick about other stuff lol.

Have you picked out a name yet?

Dream; definitely email them and ask if they'll send you a replacement. I've heard their CS is really good so can't hurt to ask! Any symptoms yet?

Steph, ahhh good luck on the SHG. Do they tell you how everything looked right away? Exciting/stressful times for sure!!!!

Amber, how are the boys?
