I thought I'd start a thread for all those who will be starting out TTC this month, I'd be interested to see how other people get on, tips, moral support etc. We'll be starting TTC at the weekend!!
Please join me!

Cupcake how are you tracking ov?

Unfortunately I have reeeeeaaallyyy long cycles Hmm does my head in! I used opks for the first time this month, am not sure if I properly ov though. The instructions said that the test line needs to be as dark as or darker than the control band and when I got the positive it was slightly lighter than the control band, but the instructions also said that i should limit liquid intake at least 2 hrs before taking the test and I'm never good at that so am hoping it was just a bit lighter because it was diluted.
The tests showed absolutely nothing until I got a faint line on cd27 and then c28 I got the darker one and then a very very faint line on cd29 and nothing on cd30
