My stats
TTC no 2

AF/BFP due 25th August

@absa see my comment above im clearly too tired this morning😂

sao81 · 11/08/2019 09:32

@asba we dtd after ov too, as you are still fertile for a day or so afterwards, between 12-24hrs after the egg is released

AmIseeingRight · 11/08/2019 09:18

Hi so I did another opk this morning and got another smiley face plus the lines were darker when I ejected. When I put this on flo
It moved my ov date to tomorrow.

@mrssunshinexxx this must be why yours moved to Friday, if positive on wed & thurs you would ov around Friday. Keeping everything crossed for you (and us all) . About to get busy this afternoon and follow @Sophieb15 legs up example 🤣🤣🤣.

Absa · 11/08/2019 08:57

@mrssunshinexxx thanks, will do!

mrssunshinexxx · 11/08/2019 08:48

@Absa I think it's definitely worth doing it after you think you ovulated from what I've read online you don't just suddenly become low straight away again and in apps for a couple days after o it says 'chance to get pregnant'

Get busy if he's not too tired Smile

Absa · 11/08/2019 08:33

Have just been doing a bit of reading around SMEP.
Haven't followed it as yet but interesting about the 3 days in a row and then miss a day and then DTD one more time.
Just thinking, my "one more time" would be today which I'd kinda discounted because thought no point after OV except for if we wanted to.
Difficult this month as DH is doing stupid amount of overtime 14 hour days 13 days straight, 2 days off and then back to 13 days so he's exhausted. But I might see if he's up for one more go tonight and then I'll let him rest until his 2 days off 😂
Have had a dull tummy ache the last 24 hours so I guess there's a possibility I ovulated later than I than I thought!

Absa · 11/08/2019 08:24

@rosina38 I think you just need to hold on to the knowledge that your body is obviously able to get pregnant.
What happened, happened. And I don't think you can worry that you're not going to get pregnant now because of choices in the past.
Everyone is different and I am sure that every cycle is slightly different for each woman too so I wouldn't worry about the lack of severe pain this time, you just can't tell!
Enjoy your week in Devon and try to relax :)

sao81 · 11/08/2019 07:32

@rosina38 some pregnancies can come with no symptoms at all! I had symptoms last month and wasn't even pregnant, think its very easy to get lost in the symptom checking as I'm guilty of it myself. The decision you made was the right one for you at that time so never feel bad about it. Lots of love and luck xxx

sao81 · 11/08/2019 07:29

@flissity id definitely say thats positive! Good luck xx

rosina38 · 10/08/2019 23:45

Hope you guys don’t mind but I just need to get something off my chest. This isn’t an invite to a pity party I just feel I need to write my thoughts down.

I am on CD21. I do think I am already out. One of the reasons is because I have had one previous pregnancy which I chose to terminate 10 years ago . I had very severe implantation pain. I remember waking up in the night in agony and crawling to the bathroom to take some painkillers. I am basically assuming I am not pregnant unless I get v bad pains again.

I do not regret my decision to have an abortion at all but I just think it will be Sod’s law that I managed to get pregnant whilst on the pill and then when I actually want to I just get this feeling it’s not going to happen quickly. Maybe I am just feeling a little guilty.

I’m generally a very positive person but I’ve just got this nagging feeling. On the plus side I know I have the possibility to become pregnant.

I am in Devon with all my family this week. a welcome distraction before AF rears her ugly head!! I have 5 nieces and nephews so far! They are so amazing, I hope my children turn out as wonderful as them.

flissity · 10/08/2019 23:19

Got 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 for you.

~I haven't really had ewcm
~Today I noticed a sharp 'ouch' pain in right hand of groin??
~Boobs are bigger but not painful like before af.

It is interesting picking up on things, I have been noting them in Ovia.

Tamalama · 10/08/2019 23:15

@flissity yeah I think it can easily be missed. This is the first month I've properly used opks. I'm on cycle 5 but I think I relied too much on ewcm and ovulation pains and May have just missed the surge each month. This month I used clearblue digital opks and got my static smiley face. I'm now 6dpo and keeping everything crossed for my bfp in a few days...

flissity · 10/08/2019 23:13

Yep!!! Grin
Feel very happy about it. The one before is from early afternoon. We have just been out for a meal and I thought I would test again ~ thank goodness I did!
Spies how easy it is for people to miss the surge and not get a positive. I will test tomorrow morning purely out of interest..

Tamalama · 10/08/2019 23:10

@flissity yep looks positive to me! 😊

flissity · 10/08/2019 23:05

Meant to add those other negative opks were lead up to tonight's.
I think I am on CD12. My period never really ended up being much of a proper one, so wasn't 100% sure!

Anyway- we will be getting busy next few days...

flissity · 10/08/2019 22:59

Hi guys,

This is cycle 2 after mirena removal. Had a positive opk I think!! See picture.
Feels good to know where I am in cycle as af not particularly showed up, so wasn't too sure.

End of August bus
Tamalama · 10/08/2019 20:16

@november90 I had ewcm on the Thursday and got a low reading on my clearblue ovulation kit, I got a low on the Friday morning too but on the Saturday it went straight to a static smiley, so mine was only 2 days before... I'm now 6do.

AmIseeingRight · 10/08/2019 20:04

@november90 my box says 2 most fertile days at the right hand corner. The other pack say 4 days.

Hello

Positive vibes for everyone this month!!

TTC no. 1
Cycle 1
CD 2
AF 5th September
Age 25

This is our first month TTC so im equally excited/terrified to 'get started'. Currently on day 2/3 of AF so can't wait till it's over.

Any advice gratefully received.

november90 · 10/08/2019 19:58

@AmIseeingRight thanks for all the info! I don't know whether mine are the 2 or 4 day ones.... does it say on the box?

@sao81 that sounds really exciting! I bet you're so eager to test! 😬😀

Can I just ask you guys generally.... how many days before a smile face do you normally experience ewcm? I know we're all different.... but I'm just trying to prepare myself! X

Tamalama · 10/08/2019 19:49

@Something20 I'm planning to test either Wednesday or Thursday...

Tamalama · 10/08/2019 19:49

Fingers crossed @sao81 🤞

sao81 · 10/08/2019 19:41

Just been getting really sharp pains and possibly thinking too much into it but it made me feel like I wanted to be sick it was so sharp, havent had that since my other little girl so hoping its a good sign

mrssunshinexxx · 10/08/2019 19:22

@AmIseeingRight ah yeah mine are the 4 day I only got one day flashing tho x

AmIseeingRight · 10/08/2019 19:02

@mrssunshinexxx yes, i had blank and then smiley. mine are the 2 day ones. I think the flashing smile are the 4 days one, u get a couple of days flashing the 2 days static (the 48 hr window) mine just tell you the 48 hr so no pre-warning lol. Thats why they are cheaper lol
