@2020wish yeah I think I'll just continue temping, and still dtd to make sure.

Aww I'm sorry you're not feeling good today, but hopefully it's good news 😊 those are all good signs, I also remember having a few of those as well just before my bfp last time. If you can, I would hold out a couple of days so that you can be certain of your results. I have fingers, toes, everything crossed for you hun!!

What is the sensitivity level on those fermometer tests?

2020wish · 17/05/2020 20:47

@Rainbowhope11 it sounds possible you have already ovulated . I would continue temping and seeing how that goes to know for sure

I feel crap today, constant headache and feeling nauseated. runny nose, sneezing and stingy eyes, twinges on either side of my pelvis . Trying so hard not to get my hopes up but I remember having all this these thing the last two times I was pregnant but noticed them more at around 12dpo not 6/7dpo. These next few days are gonna take forever to go in. Dunno whether to start testing for the crack of it from tomorrow I’ve like 20 cheap Femometer pregnancy tests

Rainbowhope11 · 17/05/2020 20:18

@VP91x I think I may have ovulated already😳 my hubby just reminded me that I did a cheapie Walgreens opk on Friday and it was quite dark, but I haven't used those in a long time and thought that something must be wrong with it. My pregmate OPKs have been much darker than what they were this morning. And I did another Walgreens opk just now which is showing a considerably lighter line than Friday. Also, for the past two days, temp has been at 97.2. Previously, temps have been 96.6 -96.8 after period.

Now I'm even more confused than before😂🤣 I think I have to wait and see, if my temp continues to rise tomorrow morning then I think I may have already ovulated.

VP91x · 17/05/2020 20:16

@SmileyT I didn't even know you could get different sizes!? Haha.

@Doughnut100 self fisting 😂😂😂

@Wishingfornumber2 absolutely you will get yours too 😊! Xx

@VP91x I’m ok thanks. Knowing you have got your peak has given me hope! Xx

Renna · 17/05/2020 20:03

@SmileyT hah we all like a bit of diverted chat some times whether its orgasms or period cups haha. I'm interested.. although for DTD purposes rather than for AF . I get on alright with the tampons ... but the only thing is I can only insert tampons with the applicators on them I've never been able to master a tampon without an applicator .. do you think I'd struggle with a cup ?
If were not lucky this month I'd maybe like to consider the cup for after DTD .. @smileyT will you be using a cup for that too ?? Xx

SmileyT · 17/05/2020 19:45

@VP91x @Doughnut100 I got The Vida Cup but DP accidentally ordered me a large size and turns out I'm smaller than I thought. I can get it in (definitely understand the self-fisting reference 😂) it's just it won't unfold when it's in however much I try and wiggle it, I spent about 30mins in the shower trying to make it work. I did leave it in and hope it was fine but it obviously wasn't suctioned in place as it leaked - luckily I was wearing a pad 🙈 Hope this is a bit of light relief from TTC chat and you're not completely grossed out by me 🤣🤣 Can't wait to get back to Poas x

VP91x · 17/05/2020 19:06

@Rainbowhope11 he has a FIFA tournament tonight so going to catch him before he gets caught up in that, haha. X

Ahh, definitely go from first day of full flow!! Yeah use your cheapies,I am sure it will go positive for you soon 🙏.

Thank you 😘

Rainbowhope11 · 17/05/2020 18:53

Hahaha @VP91x you can tell him those were the practice laps😉😂

I'm on CD12, but I'm not sure because I was spotting a few days before so if I include them, I could be CD 14/15. I'm just dtd because I don't know what's going on 😂

I have a box of cheapies too that I'm going to use. I was considering buying a box of cb OPKs, but I'm in two minds because they are kind of expensive.

I'm glad you caught your peak in time! Well, you've been dtd so often so I'm sure you would have covered your bases even if you didn't see it 😊 fingers crossed for you!!

VP91x · 17/05/2020 18:45

@Rainbowhope11 hahah 😅 omg don't I feel this same with all this DTD. I hope you get your peak too. What Cd are you?

When I told my partner I was finally ovulating. He looked at me and said whats the last week or so been then!?😂

Im glad I ordered some more of my cheapies otherwise I wouldn't have known until my temp rose xx

@SmileyT getting them in and out takes a lot of getting used to! "Self-fisting" I called it at the start, sorry too rude! But once you have the knack you can pop it in and literally forget you're on your period all day. Which brand?

Rainbowhope11 · 17/05/2020 18:37

@VP91x yay!! That is a definite positive 😊 Get busy!!😂

I'm on my last cb stick which I'm going to use this evening 😫 the one I did in the morning flashed at me again! I've had it with this cb opk! I think I may just ditch it for this month and use the cheapies and bbt instead.

At this rate, hubby and I are going to be shriveled up like dead insects in the corner of the bedroom after our dtd marathon 😂😂🤣

VP91x · 17/05/2020 18:29

@SmileyT ahh! What brand did you get? They seem like such a good idea. They scrunch up before you insert them dont they. Xx

SmileyT · 17/05/2020 18:25

@VP91x haha always seems to be the way with the odd days 🙈 I'm all good apart from the fact that my period is so heavy today and my menstrual cup arrived but think it is too big and just impossible to use 😂

VP91x · 17/05/2020 18:24

@Wishingfornumber2 thank you 😘 hopefully CB just didn't detect your peak and you are already in your LP too!! How are you feeling x

Wishingfornumber2 · 17/05/2020 18:19
