My spelling in that was awful. I do apologise lol x

JellyBeanDavey · 21/08/2013 08:46

Vjones What pill were you on? Relax, i was like you when i first started ttc and i was stressing out over the silliest things and googling... Never google! If you have a question no matter how sillytalk to us! 9.9 times out of 10, we have all down it, had it , thought it :) Have you joined the auguest bus yet?

Keden Best time (was on the instructions i had) was between 8am - 10pm it said. And make sure your wee wee is cooled down. You can get evap lines.

Vjones1985 may I ask what type of OPK you are using? I think I missed that?

I bought the cheapie Wondfo OPKS (40 strips) and I am planning on giving the SMEP Method a shot this cycle.

Most curious about when to POAS for the OPKs. I Googled and lots of people are saying between 2PM and 8Pm is best. Have you found this true?

Thanks.

Positivementakattitude · 20/08/2013 23:40

Negative today aswell sorry u r too had 2 days faint line on opk sun and mon morn but last night and this morn no line can't really see is it possible to ovul day 9 and if so the ovul didn't go same colour

Gutted missed it again always catches me off guard x

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 20:19

Yeah, I guess that's a good thing! Have had positive opk for three days now so fingers crossed.

Well I'm not certain but I don't think so. My lh surge only lasted about 10-12 hours so doubtful. But my period came back on cd25 which I was pleased with. It meant I had a normal range cycle and knew where I stood.

I'm just assuming I'm in here, as not temping etc. 21 day cycle means I'll be here more often than not anyway. Lol.

How's everyone getting on? Did we come up with a game?

In my 2ww I ate an Apple....

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 19:27

Tea - by the way, how do you know you didn't ov in the first month?

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 19:08

Sorry, just having a bad one today. I get carried away with symptoms and I know deep down they're probably just related to stopping the pill. Feeling emotional today, which doesn't help,plus sick, tired and hot. Please excuse me!! :(

Vjones - relax! It's your first month! Lots of people (me included) don't ovulate the first month. I got my bfp the second cycle, if it doesn't work for you this month, sure it will the second.

OP posts:
VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 19:00

Yeah, I had been told that but thought all the signs of ovulation meant that I will actually ovulate. So bit sad to find out it may not mean that at all. Ah well, I'll get over it!

fifi669 · 20/08/2013 18:56

The pill can take time to get out of your system, I don't know if you've already been told that? It can mess with your cycles. Hopefully yours will return to normal asap

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 18:54

I know but it's my first month off the pill so was hoping it'd happen. Plus I've had other symptoms (sore nipples, lots if ewcm, something that looked like ov bleeding,feeling hot).

fifi669 · 20/08/2013 18:49

Any LH surge may not result in ovulation, not everyone does every month. Don't panic!

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 18:46

Feeling negative today :( Until now I've been really positive but today I found out that a few days of positive opks could mean an LH surge but may not actually result in ov. So now I'm convinced it's not gonna happen Sad

VJONES1985 · 20/08/2013 17:01

Got third positive opk in a row today but much less ewcm than yesterday so I guess I'll be joining you guys tomorrow (?). Hope we manage to find a game to keep us occupied!

fifi669 · 20/08/2013 15:36

Think ov is over, entering TWW today.....

Now what? There should be some games to keep us occupied.....for two weeks.....

bushprincess · 20/08/2013 10:36

haha.. thanks helloelo for the info... glad that we don't need to worry too much on that account...DH needs all the encouragement he can get at the moment Sad ...probably my fault for turning into a TTC nut job and demanding nightly performances!

snoozysleeper · 20/08/2013 00:03

Interesting reading here tonight

helloelo · 19/08/2013 22:01

Thank God your response is a positive one. Of course, TTC means I am bonkers too, POAS way too early for it to even mean something, doing headstands (literally), etc. but sometimes my scientific training kicks in, albeit almost never between 7DPO and 14DPO
Good luck everyone :)

VJONES1985 · 19/08/2013 21:53

TTC sends you loopy...

keepswimming1 · 19/08/2013 21:49

excellent.. funny as.

I think we are all bonkers lol

JellyBeanDavey · 19/08/2013 21:10

helloelo you are my hero!

VJONES1985 · 19/08/2013 19:31

Ha ha! That made me laugh!
