Early December testing?

@FingerscrossedXXX i wouldn't go heavy atall but i perhaps would have 1. I try not to drink during tww but i would have 1 if it was an event. Absolutley no more than 1 for me though (personal opinion better to be safe than sorry)

@JEMMA18 Never mind, hopefully next month is your month!

@Laur89 Sorry on your negative. Least you should know one way or another pretty soon if AF shows up!

@Champoopapi I won't be testing until around the 4th Dec based on my current cycle!

I've got a question for you ladies.

Our work has our Christmas party soon (we're having it early as we're not a huge company and quite a few poeple break up for Xmas early). All of our work events are always pretty boozy and I know this year will be no different.

By the time of the event, I'd be around 4dpo. Would you drink?

It'll be so bloomin obvious if I don't drink and obviously wouldn't want work to know anything yet, especially when the likelihood is that it might not even be my month! Also too early to test as a precaution!

No af either, due any time from today untill 🤷‍♀️ but will test in early December,aybr even the second week to be certain if it doesn't show. Is eveyone testing in November then? Think I'm on the wrong thread if you guys are all testing now

AF arrived for me this morning in full swing :( . 3 days late but at least I know where I stand now and I can stop the addictive POAS 😂

Any news for anyone else?

@FingersCrossedXXX oh I know! Making the waiting game more longer for us. I totally get you with past ovulation days. I feel like mine are less than they should be too.

@FingersCrossedXXX sounds like my cycles hun which is why I thought I'd try the b6 tablets this month as they are meant to neutralise your hormones etc. I think it's deffo worked with making my LP longer...... although dunno how long haha xx

CD19 for me and still no positive OPK. Ovulation just keeps getting pushed further and further back as well as my period.

The frustrating thing about the cycles being so long is it just means more time waiting! Firstly having to wait for ovulation and then again for a period. I also don't want ovulation to take a long time and then have a short luteal phase as that can make it harder to conceive.

@Jemma18 How annoying, i'd rather AF turn up on the exact day it was supposed too than get my hopes up by being late!

@FingersCrossedXXX thanks my lovely. Yes, just got to be patient and wait for AF to arrive I suppose. Still nothing yet and CD36 😭

Thank you ladies for your advise about taken the tests apart.... I wont be doing it again 🙈
@FingersCrossedXXX I am 2 days late for AF did a test yesterday and still bfn I have been cramping like AF is going to arrive for the last few days but nothing yet. It's so confusing lol
How are you? :)

@Robbo93 Sorry on your negative and the cold you seem to be developing. Maybe just try and wait it out now and see if AF arrives....easier said than done I am sure!

@Jemma18 Have you taken any more tests or has AF arrived yet?

Took a cheap test this morn and BFN. Guessing this nausea I'm feeling in waves is down to the cold I've developed 🤧 just praying AF comes soon so I can start again and actually know what's going on!

@FingersCrossedXXX I want have a serious POAS addiction so every time I go to the toilet 🤦🏻‍♀️ I might pee in a cup tomorrow morning and save it for when DH gets home in the evening to do another test if nothing by then
I've had another pinprick of blood this evening, and I mean pinprick you'd need a magnifying glass to see it 🤣

@Robbo93 When you planning to take the next one?

@FingersCrossedXXX I bliddy wish I had that much self control!! I last took a test Monday morning which was BFN - when I was either 14 or 11DPO xx

@robbo93 Just checked back through the last couple of pages but am I right in thinking you haven't taken a test yet?

@FingersCrossedXXX I bloody well hope so 😂
I haven't heard about the Asda ones tbh but OPKs can detect pregnancy so..... you never know lol

@Anny27 omg really? Don't give me hope like that 😂

@Robbo93 i thought i was xoming down with a cold the day before my bfp so 🤞🤞🤞🤞☺☺☺

@Robbo93 Don't they say that cold like symptoms are a sign of pregnancy? Or have I just made that one up?

To be fair, I've only got the Asda own brands. I might get the ones off Amazon that I hear people using all the time on here. Will see this month out first though before buying anymore, just incase I get extremely lucky!!

I actually already think I am starting to go mad....I've had waves of nausea the past few days (only ate half my tea last night which isn't like me and already started googling 'Is it possible to get pregnant straight after your period'.

@FingersCrossedXXX I've still got nothing, CD35 and either 13DPO or 16DPO.. feeling minor nausea now and then and now got the start of a cold! Joy!
How's everything with you? The OPKs can be quite stressful. Which ones are you using? Some are better than others x

@Robbo93 That's actually really helpful to know...I'm wondering if I'll ever see one. Still not had a strong one this morning so I might just see if I manage to get one this month and if not, might sack them off or buy a clear blue one!

Yeah I used to watch all the Kardashian stuff so I get what you mean.

Any news today from anyone?

@FingersCrossedXXX I never ever saw a 'positive' OPK, the time I got a positive clear blue smiley face still didn't have two solid lines on an OPK... some people have a very short LH surge so you'd miss it & some people don't have a high LH surge as other people to warrant the darker line. The OPK's can be so hard and stressful which is why I didn't bother doing any this month as I've kinda learnt how to read my symptoms. Also so many things can delay ovulation as your body fights other things in your body before it will allow itself to release an egg etc... even cold & flu tablets can delay ovulation 🙄

Omg what was that picture of? Was she being for real with that being her luxury item?
I haven't made my mind up on any of them yet, I think Caitlyn is gonna smash it but I cringe every time I watch her as I can just see Bruce 😂 she needs a more feminine voice (sorry I'm a KUWTK fan haha)

Still no more bleeding for me. DH just surprised me with wanting to DTD (yum 😋) which I thought would bring on AF if anything... but nope lol

@Ellsbells112 just be patient. All the stressing prob isn't helping. Has your partner been tested? Is this is first? Xx

@Anny27 I think she was trying to be funny and it just wasn't! Very odd. You could tell Ronan was fuming. Haha.

@Ellsbells112 I don't want it to be a trial though..want it to be the real thing haha. Patience is a virtue. I'm on day 17 already and now CM. Will keep an eye the next few days.

@JEMMA18 i have taken tests apart that then develop a pink line so its not accurate unfortunatley :( but i take them apart all the time so no judgement haha

@FingersCrossedXXX Yep ihave been watxhing i'm.a celeb - love it haha! Totally adeles luxury item was so strange haha!
