@Hewie30 eeeek hopefully babe. That's so exciting. Hopefully it is. How amazing is that to think that it could already be growing 😍🤞🏻
Yes exactly. We will see what happens over the next few days! Yes I'm very in tune with my body but just in case I've got it wrong by a day or so. I'd just like to know!!

@Makeafamily19 hahaha yes I can imagine. And it's just part of the process I guess isn't it 😂🙊

@claireb707 oh it looks fab!! Are you doing the whole house or just bathroom? So lovely xx

claireb707 · 21/10/2019 19:47

Bathroom still isn't finished 😂 he needs to come back Thursday morning just for last few bits but it's almost there. I christened it tonight with a shower - Oh boy it's good 😀👍

My husband knows I'm using OPKs, I randomly leave them out in the bathroom or bedroom when I've been studying them 😂 he also knows the difference between flashing and static smiley! Luckily he isn't phased by the whole schedule thing, he just loves that he's getting some action!

Hewie30 · 21/10/2019 18:02

@gigi318 So my one at 3pm was definitely lighter phew!!! Going to keep testing just incase but that makes me feel better it could have been a blip. Haha yeah! We'll definitely be dtd at some point these next few days but hopefully I won't have another peak, hopefully our little pea is concieved already.
Awh bless you! Hopefully you'll know soon enough what's going on, the wait is horrible. TTC can be torture 🤣🙈. The good news is AF isn't here and your still getting great symptoms! Your in point with your body, or is it more for reassurance?

claireb707 · 21/10/2019 14:31

Aren't guys funny, mine is very happy with me using opks, and has seen it as a good thing, whether he feels that way in another few months if we are still trying is another matter 😂

Blood test done, still had to try 2 arms but got enough out of me this time🧛‍♀️🧛‍♀️

Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 14:31

@Hewie30 that's a good idea and not long to wait now. Half an hour and you can leave. Hurrah! Hopefully not, but may even be worth DTD just in case. And with it being your anniversary it will be fun too!
Hahaha exactly! Still no AF and CM very very very light again. So, still no change. Feeling a bit nauseous but that's likely to be me worrying more than anything else 🤣🙈
I'm definitely doing OPKs next month if not PG now as am conscious I could be assuming wrong dates!! Although nailed it this month so 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hewie30 · 21/10/2019 14:18

@Katie1109 Ooo that's strange that's pretty early to get those symptoms but maybe if you gradually have your LH increase that might be why.

My OH is exactly the same as you. He said last month was starting to feel like a chore and it'll happen. But he is still ok with me using opks still. I explained to him I got no idea when I ovulate and he was ok with that. Their definatly worth a go I'm so glad I'm doing them because my peaks have been different every month. And last month I peaked twice and this month I might too so makes sense why I got literally NO idea when i ovulate

Hewie30 · 21/10/2019 14:15

@gigi318 Haha! 😂😂. It definitely can be anything that one! But the eatery mouth and matalic taste does sound more like pregnancy symptoms so hopefully AF will stay away and you get your positive 😍😁.
I'm okay thanks babe, slightly apprehensive. I forgot my opk at work so I haven't been able to see if I'm ovulating for a second time yet. I'm hoping I'm not cos that means another long ass cycle! I'm going to pop home at 3 on my lunch to do one

Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 13:36

@Katie1109 so is my chap. It's totally up to you, chick. Good to carry on as you are in that case. I'm just done with it being a guessing game or thinking I've covered it when I may not have. Nailed the FW this month so if I'm not, then I'm definitely using them as it would be down to the wrong dates, I guess xx

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 13:34

My OH is more of a it will happen when it will happen kind of guy x I think he’ll get annoyed and feel like DTD is a chore if he finds out I use opks :(

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 13:29

@Katie1109 it did me too. But then I worry if I'm actually getting the day right. I think seeing a clear peak and covering that sounds like the best plan. But I do get what you're saying. I'm just now more on the side of it seems less stressful than constantly wondering what's going on or whether I've got dates right 🙈

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 13:24

I really don’t want to go down the opk route :( just the thought of it stresses me out :(

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 13:21

@Katie1109 oh chick! Are you using OPKs? If not I think this cycle could be the time if you can order some quickly, just to see what's going on. I've decided that if this cycle isn't successful then I will use them. I want the reassurance now xx

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 13:05

CD 8 and milky-white watery discharge? What's that meant to be? I really am loosing it with my own body, don't know what's what and when anymore :(

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 11:45

@Katie1109 hmmm weird I do too. So not sure why mine says that 🙈

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 11:42

Mine has nothing selected there because I enter it manually every month x

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 11:24

@Katie1109 on settings under Cycle and Ovulation mine has a default period setting. Maybe see what yours says in there. I attached a picture for you to see. Oh goodness, that would be hard. And I thought 5 times in a week was hard this month 😂🙈

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 10:59

@Hewie30 thanks chick x I'm feeling ok. I'm CD 8, but starting to feel some twinges in my right pelvic area, sort of pulling sensation x Other than that I'm ok, a bit tired had a busy weekend with almost no time to rest and back at work today feeling like I need another weekend!
@Gigi318 I enter my period manually every month, cannot see anything in the settings that would affect this. Ehh I guess I'll have to cover it all, but this means from tomorrow until the 30th! That's 8 days, I'm not sure if I'm up for 8 days of sex to be honest lol x

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 10:50

@Hewie30 thank you chick. Do you know, I was just thinking that. It's not here yet. My mouth is still VERY watery though. It's horrible. My whole mouth feels quite sore to be honest. Like my gums at the back of my mouth so maybe I am run down or something. Lord knows? I'm sure being PG doesn't give you a sore mouth 😂🙈 but the sour taste has been more in the afternoon, so we shall see how we go. I am ravenous today, but that could be PG, AF, the weather, anything 🤣🤣🤣
How are you feeling??

Hewie30 · 21/10/2019 10:29

@Katie1109 Morning babe, how are you? Don't worry about Flo and Ovia they've got two different ovulation dates for me too 😊. If your not using opks that just dtd to cover both just incase!

@gigi318 So strange isn't it!! But it's good because we can still keep put fingers crossed for implantation 🤞🤞🤞🤞. And plus the good news is AF hasn't arrived either, do you have any symptoms today? How's the matalic taste?

Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 10:28

@Katie1109 on the settings, is there a default period length maybe??

Gigi318 · 21/10/2019 10:26

@Hewie30 that's very true chick! Still getting bits of CM but not heavy. Seem to get like a slighter bigger drop in the morning (thank you gravity) and then tiny little bits throughout the day and nothing in the evening. Apart from Saturday when there was virtually nothing. So 🤷‍♀️ this is all so new to me! Hopefully that's a good thing!
How are you today? Xx

Katie1109 · 21/10/2019 10:24

I’m attaching photos from both Flo and Ovia. What do you think? Why is my O day different on both? All previous periods etc are recorded the sam :(
