Big congratulations @sunshine1987 and @CookieWaffle great news for the weekend!

sunshine1987 · 24/11/2018 19:00

@flapjackered is it? I thought it might detect a trispheric phase on the app, do you think that’s what it is? 11 or 12DPO today one app says I ovulated one day and another the day before. Argh the only month I hadn’t convinced myself I could be x

RanchoRelaxo · 24/11/2018 18:44

Woo congratulations @sunshine1987 and @CookieWaffle 😁

FlapJackered · 24/11/2018 18:20

OMG What a lucky day!! Huge congratulations @CookieWaffle and @sunshine1987 couldn't be more happy for you!! 🎉🎉🥂🥂
@sunshine1987 that chart is the holy grail of triphasic charts! A thing of beauty!
It makes me want to PoAs while all this luck is in the air! 😂 At 7dpo it is too early though! Must hold back! What dpo are you?

Delilah7 · 24/11/2018 18:09

Congratulations @cookiewaffle, that’s great news x

@eltzbee yeah must be, after 7 cycles of peeing on things this is the first time I’ve seen something come up, wasn’t expecting it and still can’t believe it could be correct. Will leave it a few days and test again I think

@cupcakesandglitter @validuser tentatively thank you, going to test again in a few days but glad it’s not all in my head. Guess I must be ovulating then 🙈

CookieWaffle · 24/11/2018 17:34

Hey ladies, how is everyone doing?

@eltzbee sorry you're having a rough time, I've been there :(

@sunshine1987 there's a line there :)

Sorry I've been away for a little while. I've been busy with all the house moving stuff and various things, plus trying to keep chilled about the whole ttc thing. I've still been tracking and we've been timing everything.

Well this week (i'm 8-9dpo today) i've been feeling proper nauseous all week, i've had some annoying cramps like i've had some lower stomach bug. So I decided to test this morning, and hey a nice pink second line! Going to stay cautious and test next week (after 2 CPs) but with 5 days of nausea and cramps, I'm thinking this one might stick!

ValidUser · 24/11/2018 17:31

@sunshine1987 congratulations mama!

@EltzBee sending you hugs.

I'm beginning to get twinges in my side and will probably ovulate soon. Unfortunately the twinging is on my right (bad tube). So hoping it's just wind and my left will give me an egg!

@sunshine1987 don't be daft, you're excited and rightly so.

Might be worth getting another test for tomorrow morning? Can definitely see a line though! Honeymoon baby?!

sunshine1987 · 24/11/2018 17:15

Sorry @eltzbee, that was really insensitive of me xx

EltzBee · 24/11/2018 17:15

Yep see a faint line there, think it is a congrats @sunshine1987

Glad someone else has some good news.

Feeling gutted here we did everything right this month again.

sunshine1987 · 24/11/2018 17:11

Does anyone see this?!

So sorry @eltzbee xx

EltzBee · 24/11/2018 16:07

Think I'm out 😥 just went to the loo and when I wiped noticed some purple/brown colour on the paper (sorry for tmi). Got that heavy type feeling down there too. AF seems to be coming a few days early 😭😭😭

@starkid so your OPK will pick up your surge before you ovulate, that's why they can't be used to confirm ovulation happened because it won't tell you after. I had my blood tests on CD21, my hormones showed I was in the follicular stage or something (gonna look this up later) but basically my body was gearing up to ovulate. Then this week on CD24 I had EWCM, on CD26 I had my darkest OPK (not a clear positive but the darkest one I've had by far) but then on CD27 I had negative OPKs sooo my surge would've been Between CD26-27 and so I'll ovulate 12-36 hours after that if that makes sense? When did you get your +ve? X

@cupcakesandglitter - Ah thanks, don't really get the surge/ovulating timings, but I guess if I DTD tonight and Monday, and already did it Thursday, I should be fairly covered haha. Thank you :)

@starkid that's what happened to me this week, I wouldn't say you've necessarily ovulated (ov can happen 12-36 hours after positive OPK) but I'd say the surge was in between the two OPKs x

@EssJayyCee - I know someone with PCOS who has gone on to have 2 gorgeous children completely fine, so if that is the case it might not be end of the world xx also CD51 holy shit, you trooper! Flowers

OPK pros - if I had an OPK really close to being the same colour as test line, then a negative one today, would you say I ovulated sometime between the two? Am on CD16, and usually ovulate somewhere between CD16-19 so this seems about right, but just checking if I'm going about my guesses in the right way...!
