Thought I’d make a thread for anyone who may be having a visit from AF currently and be testing similar time to me.

I’m 29, boyfriend is 27
TTC baby number 1, cycle 2 (ish.. we half tried last month but didn’t track anything!)
Trying SMEP this month
AF came today and is due 30th May

If everyone is on a similar date and wants to support each other then feel free to jump on 🙋🏼‍♀️☀️❤️

I feel dreadful today, headache and soooo hot, keep getting flushes and the last few nights I’ve slept terrible. I know of course they can’t be early pregnancy signs as I’m only 6DPO.. obviously googling it all though!

Congratulations @mumoftwobeauts !!

I think you're right @Amy00 in saying I may have a sustained LH surge this month. Like I said, it doesn't really matter as we are DTD every day at the moment anyway to make the most of the fertile window. Just keen to know when I ovulate! Good job on even attempting doing temps - it seems way too involved for me. Any reason to think you haven't ovulated other than no temp rise? Any underlying medical conditions or do you have irregular cycles normally?

@mumoftwobeauts congratulations my love! You must be over the moon!! I really hope we get to see a lot of BFP's on that list.
I'm not holding out much hope for me as feel pretty normal & woke up with an extra friend of my face today 🙈 & I tend to get one before AF arrives xx

Amy00 · 22/05/2020 10:17

Congratulations @mumoftwobeauts !! Such good news and starting us off on a high!!

@RiverRoo yay cycle buddy! Both your OPK sticks look like peaks to me! Maybe you have more of a sustained surge?? Keep DTD!!

My OPKs went from negative one day straight to peak the next, and back down to low the next. But I'm a bit worried I haven't ovulated despite the LH peak as I'm temping as well and there is defo no rise. I got my peak on CD19, so expected to ov yest (and had a bit of cramping convinced myself it was ov pains!!), so would expect a temperature rise today? CD21. My temps are really consistent and low!!

Thankyou everyone!!

Erm I had implantation sporting at 7dpo. Literally a few 5p size dots! I kind of knew then, never had sporting with previous pregnancies though.

Other than that absolutely nothing other than a few odd cramps. Good luck everyone!!

Thanks @RiverRoo I always tell myself not to get crazy about testing then I always do 🤣. Jeez. X

RiverRoo · 22/05/2020 07:35

Thanks @Kangaroo77 I thought that may be possible. Good luck over the weekend! Still lots of time for you to test positive

Kangaroo77 · 22/05/2020 07:05

@RiverRoo there's a chance you might ovulate tomorrow so if you can dtd today and tomorrow. Nice strong line there. GL.

Welcome to all the newbies. 🥰

Who's testing today? How's everyone feeling?

I feel... well, fine. Nothing to report, initial 2ww symptoms (I thought I had) vanished. My boobs are normal, my cramping is mild and irregular (if at all). My pregnancy tests have been neg for past 4 days. I'm on or around 10dpo I think - no clue.

Sigh.

Xxx

musiceverywhere · 22/05/2020 01:46

Can I join? Will be one of the last to test I think! Cycle 1 TTC. Had IUD removed last week on CD3, started OPK on CD9 as literally no idea on cycles (as had IUD in for 4 yrs!) and didn't want to miss it. Had flashing smiley CD11 and 12 so DTD both nights, and waiting to see when it goes static.---- Might give DH the night off tomorrow!
Using CB 4 day digital as I can't stand the uncertainty of the strips- will turn 40 in 5 months and only have 1 ovary Sad---- so am not worrying too much about £ Blush
Have lovely DD6 and had given up hope of another until DH changed his mind a couple of weeks ago- and as you can see I got straight on the case. Not a month to lose! GrinIf cycle follows the app I'm using, should be testing around 7th June, but who knows as body prob still settling down. Baby dust to all!

jaxs23 · 22/05/2020 01:12

@kangaroo77 not DTD today due to DP working. Will try to DTD first thing in the morning. Wish me luck.👍

RiverRoo · 21/05/2020 23:20

Can I get some help with interpreting these OPK tests? I had a static smiley with the 2 day CB digital tests on CD17 then positive OPK results on these follow up First Response tests on CD18 and 19 (today). We DTD on CD17 and 18 and will again tonight but I just wanted to check on your ladies opinion on when I ovulated. I don't do temps so I know the OPK tests can't tell me if I ovulated but I'm assuming I do. When I got the static smiley I assumed I would ovulate the day after (CD18) and the FR test supported this with such a strong +ve result but it's still quite dark thismorning so maybe I ovulate today (CD19)? It's doesn't really matter as we will DTD anyway but it's my first month using OPK's and I would like to pinpoint my ovulation day if possible. Sorry for the long post!!

Hope all of you ladies are well. I'm feeling anxious. 3 days till af is due. But I'm holding out to see if she arrives before I test. Fingers crossed!!!
