February Cherubs | Testing Thread

Just wrote a load of replies and then the page refreshed and I lost them all

@tdog you’re always welcome for puppy cuddles hope you’re keeping well lovely!

@HalfricanMa thats so frustrating with the temps after your peak. The same happened to me last cycle! Are you doing cheapie OPKs?

@josephine3 I definitely see something on those tests, fx for you!

@xZoeyx it definitely is a whole lifestyle, I can’t get my head around women who manage to get pregnant without doing all of this! Must be amazing!

@ehjmorris I do see that! Eeeek! Good luck!!

CD9 here and started digi OPKs this morning as I have some left over from my last cycle. I’ve got some cheapies coming today too.

Some puppy photos as requested…

Aww so cute!! I want one haha

Aww so cute @jellybeanxx what breed are they?
@ehjmorris I see that!!
It's great when there's a bunch of us coming up to testing time x

So cute @jellybeanxx !! Thanks for the puppy pics! Always sweet to see such cuteness! I used the last of my cheapies around peak on monday but they didnt go positive and now im out of cheapies. I feel the clomid like crazy though. I had to breathe through the ovary pain yesterday. Im excited that DH and I have been bd so much!!
@ehjmorris I dont see the vfl but im horrible at that. Good luck for your next tests!!
@NDH stinks having to wait for the tests to arrive. Looking forward for when you can test! @Saradavies89 how many dpo are you now? I know you said when you had positive opk but i get lost in the timing of the thread.
Thinking about you @Suggerhoney

Congrats on the opks @Laurabub84! Have fun dtd haha



@NDH hope af doesn’t show for you, fingers crossed x



so I’m probably crazy, definitely impatient lol I tested this morning cause yesterday I had period like cramps, painful too and I’ve twinges on and off everyday since ovulation on right side. mum only 7dpo..

This morning was bfn but tonight I tested again and I swear there is a vfl… nothing on test at 2-3 mins not even an indent line then between 3-5 a vfl appeared and got a smidge darker by 10mins.

I mean it’s definitely a stretch as it’s so early but just weird symptom.

When I put the light on it, it sorta looks pink.

Probably just another nasty indent again

I see that, hard to tell on the phone if it's an indent or positive, but the fact there is a line there atall is hopeful!! Keeeeeeep testing


Afm - I can't stop, I'm officially bonkers and an addict to peeing on a stick. I SWEAR I can see a line on the big white test. Why must my eyes deceive me like this

@josephine3 being extra hungry was a symptom for me with my son. I just wanted to eat everything for a few days. I can see those lines on the one steps. Fx’d they get darker

@HalfricanMa thanks hun. Hope your opks are positive soon too.

@ehjmorris thank you. I can see something on the frer. Hope it’s the start of a bfp

@jellybeanxx omg, so adorable. Hope you ovulate soon

@xZoeyx sorry your cycles driving you crazy. Not knowing where you are is the worst

Got my peak opks this afternoon. My temp didn’t drop this morning tho so not sure if today or tomorrow will be ovulation. Bd’d last night and will again tonight and probably tomorrow. Need that temp rise so I know it’s happened. Eeeek, I’m so excited and nervous

Oh @Laurabub84 those are gorgeous!! Fx fx fx

sending love @Suggerhoney

@josephine3 i hope those darken up asap!!!

It's been a busy week and I feel like I've done a terrible job keeping up with the thread but I hope everyone is in good spirits today.

Its cycle day 10 for me. Started opks this morning but it was negative (as expected.) I expect to get my peak on Tuesday, so should be ovulating around Wednesday.

I ordered some of the premom cheapie hpts so I don't have to feel like I'm wasting so much money over testing haha. Never used them before, but they seem pretty popular so I figured for the price it's worth it.

At this point though it's hard to remain hopeful... We've been trying for so long (and waited so long to get the reversal even and be able to start trying) that it feels like it's never going to happen.. I strongly believe things happen how and when they are meant to, and I can't imagine everything we have gone through to get to this point will be for nothing, but I really need all the prayers and positive energies (or whatever it is you believe in) right now... it's hard to stay hopeful some days..

My husband and I have discussed the possibility of natural cycle IUI since we know he has a low count, but he says he wants to give it another year. I'm not sure I have that in me..and although im not -quite- AMA yet, its not like we are getting any younger over here..plus the age gap between the kids we have now and any future baby/babies just keeps growing I'm really hoping we finally catch that egg this month.

Sorry for the emotional post.

I am a nightmare, I need to stop obsessing. I tell myself I am totally relaxed and that I don't need or want to do any HCG tests until at least Sunday, yet I have been testing for the last 2 days and then being disappointed and convincing myself I am out cause they aren't positive. I am not even due AF till around the 12th-13th.I have absolutely no idea how many DPO I am so I keep justifying it with what if it's 8dpo by now.

TTC is a whole new lifestyle I swear!

Hope everyones weekend is a nice one.

If AF is not due until Feb 12, I don't think you will get an accurate test until Feb 7 or so.

@NDH can you add me for the 12th I'll be 8dpo.

I've been off for a bit after my loss. we dtd twice and today is ovulation day. Wasn't sure I wanted to continue ttc anymore guess in my heart I still do so I'm back.

My loss went quick was bad the first 2 days and was gone by cd4. Way shorter than when I have af she lasts 6 to 7 days.

I'll catch up on the thread when I have some time.

Good luck ladies ❤

Hi ladies
Sorry I’ve been away for a few days . Just been keeping busy.
Had a very upset stomach on Thursday night. Diareah like water sorry so tmi.
And again yesterday.
Been feeling pretty crampy today too and alot of stabbing in ovaries. Wasn’t gonna bother testing today as I had another BFN yesterday at 12dpo.
So was just waiting for AF.
Anyway I’ve got so many tests and they was stressing me out having so many.
So I just thought I’d test until she shows.

I feel ridiculous right now.
Remember I always said how I get lines at 10dpo and it no lines I’m out.
Well I tested today I am 13dpo.
And could swear I could see something vvvvv faint on wondfo and pre mom. Vvvv faint. Thought nothing off the wondfo because they give shadows.
But the premom seemed to have something on it too. So so barley there but the ones I did yesterday were stark white. I’ve never gotten even a hint of a line on premom. And I could see something.
So so very faint.
Anyway thought I’d leave it a few hours and tested again.
You probably won’t be able to see these as so so faint.
But I did a Frer and also got a pink faint line.


So hard to capture on a photo

The clear blue and baby green plan I just posted have clear lines.
So so shocked i really thought I was out.
Need to catch up on the rest of the thread.
Praying lines get darker and this one is for keeps. So very nervous

thanks hon. I’m just so shocked. I have never ever had lines this late,
Please pray this is a sticky beany and a take home rainbow. I’m nervous as heck right now. Shocked and nervous all at the same time.
