So should I use the static smile one rather then flashy smile one? They are a bit pricey so want to be sure I get one that will be most useful.

I've been using the flashy face clear blue ones and I think I'm going to stop them next month and go back to the non flashing ones. I think I may have missed my peak surge somehow this weekend and I've just read online that once you get a flashy face, it will automatically keep giving you one until you hit the peak and get the static face. So I'm getting a flashy face even though when I eject the strip there is barely a second line at all. My bbt rose this morning so I think I've ovulated already. What a waste of money, I've used loads of them waiting for a peak that I've missed!

I'm using the digital clue blue ones nubian (the static smiley face ones not flashing.) I think they're worth the investment.
Fingers crossed you won't need them.

Nubian9454 · 28/08/2017 14:35

Thanks Squashy. If I'm not pregnant this cycle I intend to use clear blue digital opks. I've been using Internet cheapies and wondering if it is effective. I do feel like I may have gotten ovulation wrong this month arg.

Ps fingers crossed you won't need this thread nubian

I'm 1dpo today and trying not to get too carried away day dreaming. This is the second month I've used OPKs and the first month that we've managed a decent numbers of attempts during fw (think our timing was off initially.) Really hoping this is our month. If I don't catch this month, I'm going to start negotiating to go part time at work, as what's really getting to me is I'm away for more time at home with DS.

Hope it's a lucky month for us all!

Welcome all Smile

Nice to see some old faces and newbies too.

I've been trying seven months now.... not sure what's wrong (other than my age: 37). Cycles are all fine and our timing has been perfect every month ☹️ looking into checking all is ok with gp soon.

Hello can I join? I did post a few times on the July thread but then got busy and didn't manage to keep up! Still bf DD at night only and cycles still a little bit erratic in duration... last month had a 31 day cycle and currently on CD31 today but bfn for me!

roseandtime have been trying for about 2 months but I am sure all our timings are wrong!

roseandtime · 28/08/2017 11:56

Cycle lengths* ha

roseandtime · 28/08/2017 11:55

How long have you all been trying? I'm still bfing my first, and my cyxkeengths are still all over the place, so I'm just temping and keeping an eye on CM and hoping for the best...

Nubian9454 · 28/08/2017 11:46

Welcome Banana. Baby dust to you x

bananafanana1 · 28/08/2017 11:43

Baby dust to all! (And me please!)

KashyKash · 28/08/2017 10:44

Thanks for starting this Lopey, really hope it's going to be a September bfp for us all x x

Karpuzkiz · 28/08/2017 09:30

Found you all Grin someone has to get a BFP soon to lift us! Baby dust Star

Nubian9454 · 28/08/2017 09:28

Thanks for starting the September thread Lopey. Until af arrives I will keep posting in the August one. 3 days late for af but keep getting bfn so I guess af just late and not pregnant. Welcome Rose

roseandtime · 28/08/2017 09:16

Hi! This bus is for me then... I have an 18mo DD, currently in cycle 2 of TTC. Fertile window apparently starts today, so let's hope the baby gives us 5 minutes... 😑
