July bus - jump aboard!

Morning ladies, I'm a bit despondent this morning. Yesterday my OPK showed the darkest test line so far - but still not positive. I was sure that this morning would bring a positive result as ovulation is due today according to my app. This morning? Nothing. The faintest damn line I've ever seen. DH thinks I may have ovulated overnight.
So I'm definitely not holding out much hope this month.

MissWitch glad it all went well.
Fx for you WithCheese

My temps are all over because I'm a mouth breather I'm tempted to try vaginal temping if this month doesn't work... Which following today's drop I don't think it has :(

The thing about temps is that you're looking for an overall pattern, so it doesn't really matter whether you have constant temperatures or a bit more variation, but over the course of a month, if you're ovulating, you'll find a marked temp drop just before ov day, followed by a marked rise, which will last until your pre-af temp drop (usually a day or so before af) or your BFP.

Glad it went well. @MissWitch

I've only just started doing my temps @MotherofBoy. Yours and @juneybean looks like it never stays the same for days in a row am I right? I've done mine for the past 3 days and it's pretty much the exact same. I no it's only early days for me with regards to temping. Think I may need a new thermometer! Haha

Ooooh juney that is a fine looking chart! Have my fingers crossed! When will you test?

Had a temp drop this morning but too early to be anything meaningful (unless implantation ho ho!) so hoping I get a spike tomorrow. Still having the achey cramps... tho now wondering if it is indigestion 😂 I need to stop symptom spotting!

So I had a strong positive OPK 2 days ago along with period type cramps and bloating (the reason I done the OPK in the first place) and now I'm having loads of creamy CM, there's just so much of it!

Definitely not thrush or anything, just normal CM by the vat load Does anyone else get this? Usually I'm reaaaally dry by now

Ooh mother that's almost looking triphasic.

Here's mine. I was originally 12dpo but I realised that FF was misinterpreting my pos opk so I changed it and now I'm 10dpo....go figure.

That is really great progression blue so fx all goes well!

Wow that's really interesting mrsjones. I found out with DS at 10dpo with a clear line on FRER so I must have quite high normal hcg levels then! That or I implant early. Or both!

Chart still looking good today and lots of full aching in pelvis and lots sticky cm (felt like I was coming on earlier). Crossing fingers... (tho caveat - I am sure I am 6/7dpo not 8 like chart suggests)

Aww Blue they look exactly like my frers from when I had dd, many congratulations x
Sorry to hear about your bfn withcheese, hopefully just too early x

@ally thank you. Had my appointment and got discharged- she said everything looked fine and showed me a photo of my womb apparently it was all very healthy so I'm glad about that! Didn't get an opportunity to ask about the ovulation stuff.

@withcheese sorry about your test. Don't lose hope yet though. It's still quite early even for the early pregnancy tests.

I really hope so mrsjones - I must say looking at bluespottytigers picture gives me hope

@withcheeseplease oh no I'm sorry! Maybe a little early? I tested 11dpo and BFN but still holding out hope!

I caved and bought a first response on my lunchbreak (CD29, 11DPO) - AF due on Friday.... and I got a BFN. Devasted but holding out hope that maybe it's just too early

Hope you follow up goes well @MissWitch

Thanks MrsJones and misswitch yeah I feel much better now... I think a lot of things just came together in the same week, but a good cry and some wine always helps.

Hi ladies. Hope everyone is well.
@withcheese hope you're feeling a bit better now, sometimes you just need a little meltdown to get it out if your system.
I did another ovulation test this morning- negative again. I'm really starting to think that I just got my dates wrong. I've been basing my FW on having a 34 day cycle as that's the length of my last cycle, but prior to this it's been 28 days regularly. If I readjust ovia so my cycle is 28 days then it shows my FW as being last week through to Sunday just gone. I've had cramps all day today and been a bit cranky, so hoping they're good signs.
Got a gynae checkup/follow up from my laparoscopy this afternoon so may ask about the whole ovulation thing then.

@withcheeseplease still spotting a little bit got cramps too AF due tomorrow. I'm normally 31/32 day cycle current on day 32...AF should come tomorrow. Thinking it's likely. I haven't tested again. If AF doesn't come going to hang on till weekend to test. Sorry to hear about meltdown! Hope you feel better? I had a sob at weekend too and felt better after.

@mamasbooksbabynumber2 maybe you tested a little early? FX for you

DH said yesterday....you know we we don't get positive this time it's ok cos I really enjoy 'shagging you' oh what a romantic haha! At least he hasn't lost sense of humour!!

mini my app says AF due Sunday but I don't think it's until Wednesday next week. I'm trying to hold out and not test until a week on Friday... already struggling!

Yeah mamasbook you could still be in with a chance, but I know getting hopes up can make it harder. I had a bit of a meltdown over the weekend, but I feel a bit better now. I think just all the waiting and testing gets to you eventually! I have even more awe now than ever for my poor friend who has been trying for 5 years.

Congratulations blue!
Sorry to hear that mamabooks. Are you going to test again, or wait until after AF due?
@Sharl2017 how long have you got to wait until you can test?

I'm still waiting for ovulation. I'm so impatient - Lord knows what the 2WW will be like! Although DH is STILL feeling the effects of that food poisoning from last week, so I'm not holding out much hope for this month. It's a shame that it seems to have all gone pear shaped - I'd have been testing on his birthday, which would have been a great birthday present if positive.

Thanks withcheese yeah bit disappointed. Going to wait now and see if af comes or not. I'm 10dpo today and due on period on thursday. I may have tested too early but I don't want to get my hopes up.

Looking good bluespottytiger! I'm 11 dpo and haven't built up the nerve to test yet- maybe tomorrow or Thurs!

MrsJones and mamasbook how are you both feeling?

Ah looking good @bluee. Hope all goes well

hairy I'm sorry to hear that how old is your dd?
I had a very early mc/cp at around 5weeks with my second pregnancy. I've got some frer's left after stocking up on bogof so i have done another and it's much darker again today.
When i had the cp the tests got lighter each day until i got af bleeding and cramps.

Hi Jenny! Welcome
