Message to Persona users!!!!!! - anyone get pregnant in the month when you didn't get the 'egg' symbol?

[Amarilis]

Hello

Just trying to hold on to some hope... I used Perona and have done for about 3 years, firstly as contraception and now the reverse!

DH and I fell pregnant in October, 3rd cycle of trying, but sadly had a miscarriage in my 12th week (2 days before 12 week scan) so obviously pretty horrible and very sad..

Tried again straight away in Jan, had the egg symbol on days 14 and 15, same again in Feb (but DH was out of the country).. This week just gone, we have been at it like rabbits but no egg symbol at all... Just wondering if any of you ladies have got BFP when Persona has not shown you the egg symbol? Is it even possible? I think this may be wishful thinking?

Thanks for reading..

Yes last month but that is because I ovulated hugely late, and I was temping so I knew it was Day 24 Ov but Persona only asked me for tests day 13-20.

So if you have late ovulation entirely posssible....

Good luck!

Thandeka is right - some months, if your ovulation moves, you won't have enough test sticks to see the 0 that will inevitably happen, later on in the month.

If I exhausted all my test sticks, I carried on testing using standard ovulation tests and invariably these managed to pick it up, later on.

Didn't happen often enough to make it prohibitively expensive and was a good safety net to give me all the information I needed.

Hi Thandeka / Shangrilao

That's so obvious now you have said it.. Silly me, I will do that in the future for sure! I am on CD 23 today but usually have ov pain that only lasts a few hours but had nothing specific this much, just cramping since the 25th... god knows what's going on?

My Persona only asked for tests on days 11-17.

Didn't BD after day 15 so probably no joy with concieving this month... Roll on next!!

Thanks for responding..

And just to add more confusion to the mix, I was using ovulation predictor kits which gave me a positive around day 16 of a 26 day cycle - I'm now pregnant and the scans indicate the baby was conceived a whole week prior to this. Which is an interesting thought because DH is away on business fairly regularly, and on the months we'd not conceived, he'd been back for the OPK positive, but away the week before. And on the month we did, he was there the week before.

Ah, I don't know. But the at it like rabbits sounds positive
