I understand about waitingseveral days before testing though drewswife. I've had fairly regular cycles since ttc with the longest being 30 days. 2 months ago I had a 32 day cycle and got too excited. I got up early on the morning of the 32nd day to poas and it was bfn. Af visited by midday. Gutted. Wish I'd just waited one more day....

I've got cramps and twinges today and had nausea the past 4, not sure what it all means. I'm only day 21 and 8/9 dpo. Too early for SYMPTOMS!

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 19:26

lol RPopz.... I know. I had 9 +ve opks just after I had the coil out and I was convinced I was pg. sadly not tho... just a freaky cycle!

Drewswife - you're killing me.... GO BUY A TEST!!! Grin

DrewsWife · 18/04/2014 18:46

Ah fair enough! They must not work the way I thought they did! That is pretty dangerous information.... Wink

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 18:16

I'm trying to post a link but my phone app is rubbish!

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 18:15

RPopz.... google it! opks pick up LH and HCG. It's not always reliable, but def can mean that you're pg.

RPopz · 18/04/2014 16:28

Don't think thats true Tooth, sorry!

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 11:50

different hormone but are so similar that opks can sometimes not tell thr difference.

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 11:49

opk sticks will show positive if you're pregnant! Wink

RPopz · 18/04/2014 10:44

No its fair enough, think I'd feel the same. Still impressed though!

DrewsWife · 18/04/2014 10:40

No I haven't been. Sorry but I can't bring myself to believe it's a possibility. I'm scared to jinx it.

I'm going to wait a few more days incase AF is just late. Although we are at 3 days now.

I'm such an idiot I know!!!

RPopz · 18/04/2014 10:29

You need to get a preg one hun x

DrewsWife · 18/04/2014 00:38

Anyone about?? I peed on an ovulation stick. It was all I had and I couldn't be faffed with tesco at midnight.

Ok so back to the stick. I have a super faint line at the bottom and a stonking great bluer than blue line at the top. Any thoughts???

OP posts:
toothachereturns · 17/04/2014 22:05

The positive I'm taking from this is that my cycles seem to have returned to their text book reliable 28 days like they were years ago before the coil, which makes predicting ovulation etc much easier! Smile

toothachereturns · 17/04/2014 22:03

Thanks all. ive joined the may thread now. Smile I think Drewswife is my bet for a bfp!!

RPopz · 17/04/2014 21:54
