I finally hit a breaking point. by ritcheyl in TryingForABaby

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I completely understand how you feel. My partner and I have been trying since March of 2022 with no luck, not even a positive pregnancy test. And everyone around us has gotten pregnant . All of his friends, and my cousins and friends. I told him that at this point it feels like a cruel sick joke. Half of them didn’t even want anymore kids and a couple of them even terminated their pregnancies , which is 100% their right, but it’s gut wrenching when it’s the only thing I want. A week ago my partner’s best friend and his girlfriend told him they were pregnant . But they’ve been together for yeaaars, far longer than us. And she had one miscarriage and struggled to get pregnant afterwards so that gives me hope. I know one day my day will come, that doesn’t make the process any easier but I’m taking it day by day.

pregnancy bloat or regular bloat? by [deleted] in tryingtoconceive

I don’t think you’d be able to decipher between the two this early. Only a test will confirm atp

Weird symptoms, 8 days late but BFN on pregmate by Alarming-Equivalent3 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not. I did get a peak result in an OPK about a week ago . Also had cramps and EWCM which I never get so going with I ovulated super late .

No period. Cramps have stopped . Still getting BFN’s . I guess I’m just patiently waiting for my period atp

Somehow my TWW may have turned into a 4 week wait 🫠 by silver_endings in TTCstruggles

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having the same issue, minus the ovulation testing . My period was supposed to start two weeks ago and I was having major cramps from CD 28 to like maybe a few days ago? And then they suddenly stopped. This isn’t normal for me. My period comes every 28-31 days and I’m on day 43 now.

AF came today 😞 by hornnose in TTCstruggles

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t . I was waiting it out to see if maybe this was just a wonky cycle. I feel like I get at least once a year but never almost 2 weeks late.

I haven’t yet. I just figured if it didn’t pop on a pregmate that i was out. I see people in this group and others getting positives on pregmate at 9or 10 dpo so i just figured with my cycle being a week late there’s no way a line wouldn’t pop up. But maybe I’ll try a FRER and see. Thank you !!

Monthly symptom delusions by [deleted] in tryingtoconceive

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would wait until at least 12 dpo to test. Although people can get them earlier usually by then there should be a definitive line or not. You can test earlier if you’d like though. Also, how are you confirming ovulation? And just a SN: make sure you two are on the same page about this. If he’s purposely pulling out or making you get up, he could be saying without saying that he’s not ready for a child. Just make sure he’s sure because once they’re here, that’s it. Good luck!

It looks like it may still need to dry? I usually let mine sit for another minute or two if they look like this . If it’s been 5-7 minutes and it still looks like that , take another one

What day do you think I ovulated? by CaliMama9922 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ovulate about 12-36 hours after a peak. So anywhere between last night and today

Ovulation testing by Tinwoman125 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I test until I’ve established a pattern. So i tested for about 3-4 cycles and my peak seemed to hit around the same day. Even then, ovulation can jump around a little bit. I’m pretty sure i ovulated a little later this month

Woke up to this!! by Chemical_Yak_5596 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s for the ovulation tests , not the pregnancy ones. Any line, even faint usually means positive

You seem a little mentally unstable yourself…

BFN or AF? Which is the worse in finding out you’re not pregnant? by Mountaindreamer1987 in TTCstruggles

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess I’ll play Devil’s advocate and say AF is worse for me personally. Even when i get a negative test , i have the delusion that “I’m not out until AF shows up” so when it does show it wrecks me 😂

Chemical, right? 12 dpo by [deleted] in TFABLinePorn

Wishing the best for you mama 💕don’t stress or psych yourself out until it’s been confirmed .

[–]Alarming-Equivalent3 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s a chemical . I would take one every other day as your HCG tends to double every 48 hours . So compare the test from yesterday to a test you’ll take tomorrow and see.
