So I think I'm in the tww, had a positive OPK on Monday afternoon and negative since so think I may be 1 or 2 dpo

Not sure we've done enough this month so will be surprised if it does happen .

Anyone want to join me in the wait?

I wanted to wait until this morning but used an IC and was a BFN. It's still a week until AF is due so not too worried. (Secretly am gutted!)

beibikeiks · 18/11/2018 09:58

5 days "late" today and no cramps etc so I had a test ready this morning... Wiped and there it was, that awful witch showed up. I did the test anyways, just in case. BFN of course.

Officially 3 years now TTC and 1 year since my ectopic.. I don't thing this is ever going to happen. Uuuugh 😩

Congrats @mrsof20118! Sorry to hear about your MC - fingers crossed for you that this one sticks.

mrsof20118 · 18/11/2018 07:10

I used a frer this morning as temp was back up after yesterday and got a bfp and a 1-2 on a clear blue. Very nervous after the early mc in september so will try this time to not keep doing tests and just take each day as it comes. Wishing those testing soon all the luck.

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 20:44

Welcome @ronniemipperton and sorry to hear about your mc.

I was thinking it might be too late for implantation dip if the spotting was yesterday and today? Still no af as yet today

I used Ovia with both mine.

I also recently downloaded Glow - it has a scanner that you can check if your OPKs are positive or not! That was quite good

Oh and on fertility apps - I was using Ovia for ages, now using Fertility Friend. I think FF is more useful for pinpointing ovulation but I do like the Ovia interface.

ronniemipperton · 17/11/2018 18:36

Hi all, can I join you? I think I’m around the same point as quite a few of you - 8dpo. I caved and did a FRER this morning and it was a very definite BFN. Trying to hold out for AF next week now. I’ve been trying for ages (years) but I seem to be particularly obsessive about it this month!

@mrsof20118 sounds like your temp dip could have been implantation dip? I’ve had a BFP once before (sadly ended in MMC) and had a temp dip at 9dpo - BFP at 11dpo.

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 18:28

I use ovia and fertility friend x

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 18:28

So sorry @stroan it can be heartbreaking and so confusing. X

Mseddy · 17/11/2018 16:53

@showmethegin I use ovia too and it's alright I guess. Waiting for an ovusense to arrive then I'll be using that :)

showmethegin · 17/11/2018 16:37

Can I ask what fertility app people are using (if any) I'm using Ovia at the moment but not sure if I like it?

showmethegin · 17/11/2018 13:42

Ah @stroan that's rubbish. Always happens to me too. Onwards and upwards! Thanks

MrsMargot · 17/11/2018 12:26

I am very sorry @stroan ... I know exactly how you feel...

Mseddy · 17/11/2018 11:42

@stroan sorry to hear that :( what shit timing of AF :(

stroan · 17/11/2018 11:03

@mrsof20118, no need. Drove to the chemist for some FRERs, got home and AF has started.

All those faint lines on IC tests have really messed with my head, so I’m not taking it too well.

Mseddy · 17/11/2018 10:58

@Regina yeah I did a clear blue early detection but they are just crap! There was blue in the test window but not central so I'm taking it as a dudd. Did another IC because they are the same sensitivity as the clear blue and couldnt call it either way again! I'm at work till 8 tonight but I'm going to concentrate on not peeing after 4 so I can do another IC this evening incase I'm a stronger in the evening kind of person! I'm not feeling hopeful at all thought :( I'm 10DPO (9 potentially depending how long post surge I ovulated) so it should show by now on a 10 sensitive test

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 10:21

My temp dipped this morning but I shouldn't be due on until Thursday. I woke up at 4 30 ish though and don't usually take it until 6 but cant see it making that much difference?! Waiting game today to see if af arrives.

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 10:20

Maybe try tomorrow with a frer? @stroan

ReginaPhalange89 · 17/11/2018 09:15

@mseddy did you test?

OP posts:
stroan · 17/11/2018 09:01

Absolutely nothing on an IC this morning. I’m 12/13dpo. Too scared to do another FRER or a digital but it’s all-consuming. I can’t think of anything else.

My periods aren’t regular, no idea when it’s due so it could be among wait now.
