[quote SarahTTC2020]@duckii mine surprised me last cycle too, wasn't expecting for another 10 days so only did it once

This cycle I'm on cd19 with no inkling of ov yet so I'm wondering if it'll be same as cycle before last which was cd26 ov.
Should be starting DH plan of lunchtime quickies m/w/f today (who cares about romance 🤣) so 🤞[/quote]
Romance is out the window whilst ttc! Grin it is actually hard work esp with a toddler who doesn't sleep! Good luck x

duckii · 29/07/2020 12:33

Thanks @Tink2019 @SarahTTC2020 How are you both getting on?

I actually think I'm getting ovulation pains and sore boobs. Very rarely get that, it feels like af is about to start! Did you get this with inositol @Newbie0818 ?

Tink2019 · 29/07/2020 11:23

@duckii I may be wrong but I think you can ovulate up to 48 hours after getting a positive OPK, so you should be covered DTD wise - good luck 🤞🏻

Thanks! So this morning I did a clear blue, and it's a static smiley. This is a week and half earlier than I had thought. I have been taking inositol as well like @Newbie0818
We dtd the 2 days ago. Will try tonight and tomorrow. But my DH is away Friday to Sunday. May try dtd Sunday night if he's not too tired. Do you think I have missed it? Did not plan for it come to early! Sad

justlonelystars · 29/07/2020 09:29

@Newbie0818 yeah I know, I’m not upset to be honest as I never convinced myself it was anything other than a shadow on my picture.
I’m so broody though, I just can’t wait until I do get a BFP!

Newbie0818 · 29/07/2020 09:25

Aww so sorry @justlonelystars ! It's very lucky to get a bfp after only one month, I'm sure you'll get it soon :) still sucks though x

justlonelystars · 29/07/2020 09:13

So my tests have all came back as BFNs since the maybe-line on 10DPO. Never mind! Maybe next month :)

Newbie0818 · 29/07/2020 09:07

@duckii I agree, keep testing as your peak may be around the corner or just passed if they get lighter. I never manage to catch mine properly, always seem to test just after!

@Suki2020 yay for cover line and shorter cycle! Have you done anything differently?
I'm 5dpo and apart from slightly tender breasts nothing at all. Maybe the odd light cramp here and there. I soooo want this as our second wedding anniversary is on the 8th and I would love to give dh a positive stick as a surprise 😭😭💕

Suki2020 · 29/07/2020 07:57

@duckii keep testing a couple of times a day. You are either just about to peak or you’ve just peaked.

@Newbie0818 I’m now 3DPO got my cover line this morning. So a shorter cycle of 35days this time which is amazing for me. How are you feeling? How many DPO are you?

duckii · 28/07/2020 23:23

I've started using Femometer opks for the first time, when I try to add a test.. the photo never comes up, only the status. So I have to manually upload the photo which is annoying.

Anyways, I'm confused. Does this mean I'm ovulating today or peak? It came up as high 60%. Confused

@Newbie0818

I officially have a cover line for both apps 🥳🥳 3 dpo 🤘🏼 I feel NOTHING.
Aww that's amazing!! Smile
Newbie0818 · 27/07/2020 22:30

@Suki2020 hmm yeah I think I may stop it now then if my temp is still high tomorrow. Thanks :)

Suki2020 · 27/07/2020 21:27

@Newbie0818 Agnus castus you can’t take when pregnant so my gp told me to stop once you ovulate and then start taking again once your period starts. So I guess it would probably be the same 🤷🏻‍♀️

Newbie0818 · 27/07/2020 19:27

Does anyone know if you're supposed to stop taking inositol after ovulation by any chance? I know it can be harmful when pregnant, so just wandering...

Tink2019 · 27/07/2020 13:57

That is so true @Newbie0818 - fingers crossed indeed 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Newbie0818 · 27/07/2020 13:53

Oh I see @Tink2019 I was confused as I'm only 3dpo 😂 I think everyone's bodies are different though so I wouldn't worry too much. They are quite similar aren't they, let's hope they both stay up 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Tink2019 · 27/07/2020 13:30

@Newbie0818 your current one on FF that you shared earlier today and my current one from FF - although your temps look much better than mine, mine seem quite high during follicular phase!

Newbie0818 · 27/07/2020 12:38

@Tink2019 is that on one of my old charts earlier in the thread? Interesting!

Tink2019 · 27/07/2020 12:19

@Newbie0818 I've just noticed how similar the pattern of our charts are - if you look at 8dpo on mine and 10dpo on yours they both spike up a little the following day, then slope down for a few days, spike up again then plummet, rise again for a couple of days then drop then rise massively...if my crosshairs were through CD18 they’d be almost identical!

Tink2019 · 27/07/2020 12:09

@Newbie0818 it's so hard knowing what to stop / what to keep doing! Think I'm just going to make a snap decision at the beginning of next cycle 🙈 if the Inositol is natural and works I'd keep it up x

Newbie0818 · 27/07/2020 11:26

@Tink2019 yay! That's awesome. I'm going to keep going with my Pregnacare but not sure whether to stop the inositol or not?

Tink2019 · 27/07/2020 11:17

@Newbie0818 AMAZING news, so pleased for you!! And...me too, although I had 3 weird temps after O and only a big rise today 🤷🏼‍♀️ Soy Insoflavones defo seem to have brought O forward though (CD15 from CD26 last time!) - now taking B6 to help luteal phase 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Suki2020 it might just be that you get a long surge. I'm sure you'll see a change in temps soon x
