Ladies, look!
My OPKs just arrived. I had saved my FMU and lunchtime in sample cups. So dipped them and then just done a quick wee now and dipped that. This is my positive right? It came up so so quickly!

@2020wish it is weird! yeah you are right, worrying about it makes it worse. I can't do anything about it either way one of the two options will happen - thank you ❤️

@VP91x I’ve read that some women don’t get a static smiley on the digitals as their LH surges aren’t as high (it doesn’t effect ovulation ) so maybe that’s the cause? Still strange tho.. I’ve also read some months is common for you not to ovulate at all ... I would give up on digitals, use cheapies and just keep doing the deed until either AF arrives or pregnancy signs.. you will drive urself mad with over thinking and that won’t help you at all. You know you can get pregnant and do release eggs

@2020wish aside from tracking days, I done CB digital last month but that was just a mess again with all the flashies so stopped once my box ran out and only got my thermometer towards the end of my cycle. Not taking any supplements at all xx

@vp91x where u tracking temp and opk strips on your other cycles? Are you taking any different vitamins that could potentially lengthen your cycle?

@2020wish do you think there would still be a problem with this being my 4th cycle since? So hard to know what is happening isnt it? Will keep tracking my BBT anyhow xx

@Doughnut100 thanks. Will look into easy@home next month if don’t get anywhere this month! Xx

2020wish · 17/05/2020 12:29

@vp91x so annoying but it seems ur body is trying to ovulate with the flashing smileys so probs just taking longer cooking up an egg after ur mc

VP91x · 17/05/2020 12:04

@2020wish yeah normally after at least 6/7 hrs asleep and between 05:00-05:40am at the latest. Themometer is by my bed so I just grab it whilst I am half asleep and it logs it. Really annoying! Xx

2020wish · 17/05/2020 11:54

@VP91x so annoying. And are you def temping after a good sleep and before u even open ur eyes? And around same time

Re6ecc4 · 17/05/2020 11:43

Ah these sticks and temps are so complex!!

Doughnut100 · 17/05/2020 11:40

@SmileyT thanks, so technically I'm in with a chance. I don't dare to hope really but 🤞

@2020wish yeah still flashed this morning. No more CB left. Waiting for my re stock of OPKs to arrive.

I've attached my graph, I thought I was getting a temp rise but then it dipped again. Natural Cycles pushed my ov date back to tomorrow I am assuming from today's temp. Femometer just keeps moving constantly.

Xx

@Doughnut100 as long as you are ovulating you can get pregnant the hcg is just residual in your body waiting to be processed out. The only thing with not having a negative hpt is that it might be harder to detect a new pregnancy early 🤞

2020wish · 17/05/2020 11:28

@Hayleylou89 @SmileyT I’m trying not to get my hopes up lol I didn’t have a drink last night but I also had a drink the night before Grin with Dh as he got a few days off work and nothing else to do but have a wine lol so I should of expected to jump yesterday? Fingers crossed for me. Gonna try and leave it to thurs to test at 10dpo

@Hayleylou89 top right hand screen the wee account icon click on that and see inbox

@VP91x
oh no still flashing? How annoying and no signs of ovulation on graph? Hopefully by time it happens ur luteal phase will increase also. Your not out yet

@bellabubbles isn’t it so confusing this is first time I’ve temped or watched rhr so didn’t even know how it went with my last pregnancy

Doughnut100 · 17/05/2020 10:25

@VP91x and @Wishingfornumber2 I have to say I hated cb when I tried them. Reading you two talking about smileys makes me remember. I say bin them and go easy@home! (Ha they don't employ me I promise)

Does anyone know if you can get pregnant when you are still pulling lines from the miscarriage? I am 19days post ERPC, 3dpo and had sex at O-1 so I am hoping I'm in the game, but every day I still get a faint BFP.

peonyrose87 · 17/05/2020 10:03

@hayleylou89 it's barely there again 😫 just going to keep following SMEP and hope for the best 🤞🏻

@Wishingfornumber2 really frustrating. CD19 now and last month my cycle was 31 days which would give me a 12 day LP if I was ovulating today and then counting down from there which would be a short LP which makes me think probably isn't going to be my month xx

Bellabubble · 17/05/2020 08:44

@2020wish bbt temp and restong hesrt rste is a good sign, if it stays consistent then it definitely could be a bfp :) fingers crossed for you!! I think as well it ends up being a little bit of “what’s your normal” if that makes sense! Last pregnancy before mmc, my temp and rhr didn’t go any different for me until I was 3 weeks pregnant (5 weeks by Dr’s, but 3 weeks post dtd for us lol!) then both shot up and remained high then, but first 2 weeks it looked like my normal cycle temping, and others get high temps/rhr pretty much straight away! I swear the femal body is so confusing!!

Wishingfornumber2 · 17/05/2020 08:41

@VP91x oh just seen your other message. So frustrating isn’t it! Xx

@Wishingfornumber2 ahh no, I was hoping you would get your flashing smiley.

Still flashing for me too 😩 xx

OP posts:
Wishingfornumber2 · 17/05/2020 08:39

@VP91x so last cb stick this morning was flashing again 😕. CD22 and 9 days of flashing smileys. Feel I have missed my peak if there was one. Oh well will maybe DTD a couple more times and just see what happens from there.

How have you got on? Xx

VP91x · 17/05/2020 08:35

@SmileyT @Hayleylou89 still flashed😭

My temp also stayed low at 35.92 bleurgh

@2020wish those look like some great signs!! Fingers crossed xxx

OP posts:
Hayleylou89 · 17/05/2020 08:16

@peonyrose87 mine this cycle went from low to peak from fmu to smu... so It really can change quickly how have u got on this morning? And u @VP91 xx

Hayleylou89 · 17/05/2020 08:08

@2020wish this was my full sept graph it was actually 3 dpo when i had that first pinky ib which was so strange but id never had it before so it was a huge sign for me and as u can see we wasnt trying that hard 😂 we only dtd a couple of times in the fertile window and that was because has a bbq and got drunk that cycle but back then i was so much more chilled and we had just got back from our honeymoon and decided to start trying ... if only it was that easy 😏... hope this is a really good sign for u x
