Waiting to try, and cycle a mess from the pill

Lol sunny I couldn't resist either peed on one every day after 9dpo ! It's so hard when u have them in the house!! X fx for u ! X
Chapman nothing wrong with testing the whole TTC business can be very tiring ! We have gone bk to dtd twice a week if I am awake lol xx

Oooh chapman!! Great line! It's like magic when it goes dark overnight isn't it! Lucky you with your body going back to normal so quickly.

Not that I'm obsessed with peeing on a stick but I had one like that in the afternoon, and did another in the late evening and it was really dark!! DTD.

Yeah I will try to hold off too at least 12dpo now.. 14 if I can but I probably can't! Lol xx

I will do don't worry! Think il rest tonight and dtd tomorrow like I said not the end of the world if say for example mid December I have a AF or bfn I'm just glad I'm seeing some progress after hearing stories of it taking months/years for the body to get back to normal!
Aw bless you it will get easier :/ haha! When are you due again? 2 of my friends have found out there pregnant too making this all impatient. Xx

U are very lucky ! Take full advantage chapman lol
I'm ok ta just very tired ! Not really morning sickness but food aversions making it very hard to want to eat anything or cook , been sticking to cereal and baked potatoes lol x

Aw thanks Hun I'm quite shocked though cause I haven't even had an AF at all so didn't think my body would have returned back to normal so quick it's crazy! How are you doing gx91 any morning sickness? Xx

Chapman- I would say that was a positive ! Dtd over the next 36 hours and u should b I'm for a very good chance ! Fx for u !
Still love seeing pics of sticks and lines lol ! maybe it will b a BFP in 2 weeks ! X

Hi sunny Vicky and gx91!
Here is my pic I literally just took about half an hour ago im astonished how much different it is today than yesterday. We dtd yday and tbh we only do it every other day so I'm just going to keep it at that routine!

Aw I've got my fingers crossed for you sunny I know the wait must be unbereable and so slow for you! Like gx91 said try it before day 14 if you've got that feeling!!

Vicky when did you last have AF i haven't even had one and I only came off the pill at the start of the month tbh we wasn't planning this early only planning after new year.. But hoping to catch for December haha! Keep using the opk stick that's all I've done! Xxx

Sunny - u should test again I'm a few days , I got the very faintest of faint lines at 12 and got what was a def line on 13 dpo was using the £ tests X
Didn't have symptoms either and we only dtd on days leading up to ovulation and once on the day of positive opk bcoz he was working away after that X
There's still hope !! Fx for u !! X

Hi chapman, line on opk any darker today?

My temp is still going up, although Iv slept SO badly last 4 nights Iv done my temp at really random times, and after really broken sleep, not the solid 3 hours you are supposed to be asleep before temp so who knows!! Did my temp at 5 this am when I woke up as I knew if I did manage to get back to sleep it wouldn't be for long. In was 36.46.. By the time I Did eventually drift back off I got another hours sleep, tested again at my normal time 7.30 and it was 36.66. Makes quite a difference to my chart but as Iv already OVd it can't make me more or less pregnant that I already am. It's just interesting to see the difference.

Stupidly peed on a stick this morning. Obviously a BFN! Only 9dpo... Getting impatient. If the ICs weren't so cheap I wouldn't be tempted! I know it will be neg any way as didn't dtd much in fertile window, and absolutely zero symptoms... but can't help myself! Addict! Haha x

That's looking promising cnchapmanxx...keeping fingers crossed for you! I'm still waiting for AF to show up!!

Haha I hope so this is the first time since doing opk that I have got any where near a faint line! This is my 7th stick only started doing them last week when they got delivered I just had a feeling cause when we were shopping around asda I felt so sick and had pain in the left side. Aw thanks sunny I will continue to test and hopefully they get darker! But yes lots of regular sex my husband is loving it haha!

Thanks gx91 how are you doing? Feeling well?? I love the festive season it's my favourite and we have our wedding anniversary on the 21st so lots of dtd! Xxx

Hi all. Welcome mrsmogz. It's good you are coming off pill now, give your body time to settle down.. Although lots of us planned to do the same and ended up "trying" sooner! Haha.

Chapman, how long have been doing opks for? If that's the first 2nd line you have got I would say keep doing one a day, hopefully you are in the lead up to OV. It's not positive until the 2nd line (the one nearest the wee dip) is as dark or darker than the control line. If you look back through thread I posted a pic of my 1st proper positive. I got faint lines on all my negs. But best thing is regular sex!! Some people never get positive opks and still get pregnant! :) xx

Looks good chapman they may get darker over the next couple of days lol keep at the bedding ! good luck X

Evening girls don't know why but my phone hasn't been notifying when new posts have been on annoying!! No sign of AF however I did a opk today and I got the slightest faint second line I took a pic so don't knew whether it is positive or not! Maybe yous can have a look! Anyway I got DH to dtd haha!
How is everyone else today any signs of AF for those waiting?? My thermometer is on its way anyway which is good! Xxx

Cookie - ur right about them not understanding , there really is only a 24 hour window for the egg survival ! I had no idea it was that short X
As soon as I had EWCM and lines on opk s I was telling him to get the pants off lol ( think it made me crazy ) but u gra do what u gra do lol X
It's hard for us ladies when naturally it's all we can think about and time seems to tick by so slowly ! the men have it too easy so I say they should stop moaning and get on with it lol X

Hi Gx, how are you feeling? Thanks for the advice. It really is uplifting! I think CM is definitely the best indicator for me. Even though I was 55 days last month, I had definite EWCM exactly 14 days prior to AF. Haven't had this yet this month so maybe I've just not ov'd yet! I'm trying not to put too much pressure on DH at the moment, though it's frustrating that he can't seem to understand the importance of timing and the mechanics of DTD around Ov! Xx

Withdrawal bleed just starting after finishing last pack! Hoping to start TTC around march x

Hey all ! Sorry just catching up
Hope ur all doing well and enjoying using ur apps X
I want to stress that u can still ovulate normally in long cycles after the pill I was having cycles of 38 -42 days and was ovulating around cd 19-22 and managed to get pregnant , think if it wasn't for the OPKs and other information I looked up we would have missed it , the Internet was very helpful there! I found I was very dry down there and only had EWCM for 2 days then dried up again so thought something wasn't right ( I was checking everyday too)
Also was checking cervix position but that turned out to be no help as it was soft and high the whole time and even now my pregnant cervix doesn't match the description of a pregnant women's lol X
Really excited for u all and hope to see some BFP very soon X
Got luck to all those at the start of a new cycle hope u have lots of fun baby dancing over the festive month , I find it a good time of year to get snuggly in the sheets xx

Yeah I'm excited to start a new cycle after so long waiting for AF!

I'm just checking CM as I found I was getting too stressed using OPK.

Thanks, Yvonne! Here's hoping!! Are you going to TTC this month? Xx

Fingers crossed for a BFP Cookie!

Hopefully that's your body settling into a short cycle NewGirl. Any sign of AF yet other ladies? Im just so confused that Ive had no CM whatsoever this cycle. Had loads last month! If I were to have a 28 day cycle then AF would be due next Mon. Just hoping I don't have as long to wait as last time. If I got a BFP that would be a massive (and lovely!) surprise! xx

Sunny that's really interesting that you get a Ov type pain throughout cycle, I've never kept an eye on this before but I did notice it this cycle.
My therm has arrived too, going to start tomorrow. Ladies who have been doing this for a while, how exacting do you have to be about doing it at the same time each day? Or is it more about doing it first thing upon waking, whatever the time? I'm not a morning person haha.
Newer ladies Chapman and Vicky, you are totally right that Ovia will be useless until you've had a proper AF. Just track your symptoms, ignore the predictions .
I've just got a new app as well as Ovia, it looks like fertility friend but a bit prettier !! It's called Kindara, lots more specific track of options on there than Ovia. I'm going to us both for a while.
AF has fully kicked in today and I've got cramps, sore boobs, the lot! That makes my last cycle 30 days, compared to 38 last month. Hopefully they'll stay more around the 30 mark.

Hi ladies. Ovia is only really useful for recording your data initially, almost have to ignore the predictions! It works better once you have gathered lots of months of data. Initially it's basing everything on an average 28 day cycle... Or whatever you've told it you have. My 1st 98 day cycle it got very upset and moved my OV date all the time! I had about 5 different patches of EWCM before I actually OVd. If you want to pinpoint OV you need to temp and do opks.. Then the app will interpret them to give you more accurate predictions.

After saying my nipples felt better, they are really sore tonight. Got a pinchy pain (not as bad as OV) right side or pelvis... Although I get this throughout cycle. Only 7dpo... Note to self: stop symptom spotting!!!

Same here think we are both struggling maybe because we haven't had AF?? I've just bought one of them basal thermometers from eBay so will start using it once I get it and sack the app off as I feel I'm relying on this app at the moment!
Haha same here I am so impatient I said to my best friend spend half our lives being so careful to not get pregnant then when we want to it's so hard!! Fingers crossed we both get AF soon an anyone else who is waiting it's seems like days are months xxx
