@Elakiya awww I can't even begin to imagine how painful your AF pain is xx

Wow really? Thats awesome so you saying I shouldnt freak out if it drops the first day i should hope for it to go back up then lol!! How cool thanks for letting me know. Will be sure to look for that next cycle since I am not temping this cycle.
Still secretly hoping next cycle I will be using a tempdrop but my hubby isn't grand at taking notes lol.

@elakiya I used. To have really bad period cramping to the point I'd be off school and strong painkillers wouldn't touch it.. Thankfully its eased over the years and now I only occasionally have months like that so I totally understand how awful and complete deliberating it can be and I've found the cramps (there are a few) are nowhere near as bad.. Unless you eat something too fatty and as your digestive system slows down it gets painful, but if day the tiredness and nausea is just as distracting but obvs for different reasons! But to be honest everyone has different symptoms and different pregnancies, so fingers crossed this is your month and you have one of those pregnancies that you don't even know you are except for the BFP!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you

Elakiya · 06/09/2020 22:15

@snapple21 Yep defo a peak. If you can't get strips then cover your bases and BD away. If you get tired of BD-ing self insemination is the new way to go :P or as @Boc86 said "hop on" at the end :P

Elakiya · 06/09/2020 22:14

@candycrush2298 @Welliedays You're possibly right there but PCOS tends to make period cramps unbearable so I am hoping anything pregnancy related won't be quite as bad but knowing my luck it would probably be even worse.

@Kaybobx You've got a point there. Maybe you have been missing it all this time.

@candycrush2298 I saw some woman's fertility friend successful pregnancy chart. It showed that just before her period the graph dropped slightly (similar to what you had 2 days before AF was due and then it started rising again.

@snapple21 yes let us know when yours spikes. If yours also only spikes in about 2 days then it just adds the theory that we do ovulate after the last peak.

@Kaybobx yeah you were a boss with all your BD this cycle whahahaha!! How's your headache?

@snapple21 trust me I know how tough that is 🤣🤣 it was so so so tough the last two cycles but you girls all encouraged me to do it. So I am just returning the favour you can do it hun.

Kaybobx · 06/09/2020 21:46

@snapple21 the first peak isn't true! I ovulated after my 3rd day of peaks according to my BBT chart. Maybe thats why I've not conceived in 12 months! Ive always BD to peak then stopped so probably been missing it all this time. Keep BDing until you can't take no more lol

snapple21 · 06/09/2020 21:43

I'll let you know what my temps do too

snapple21 · 06/09/2020 21:43

Ok. My peak opk looks even stronger now it's dried. I'll do my very best to have sex for three days straight now 😅

@Elakiya oooh sounds like @Welliedays has a point lol!!

@snapple21 the issue is that both mine and @Kaybobx temps only rose after the final peak day not after the first peak. So we were discussing it today that we don't actually know which day is the true peak. General opinion is last peak but we don't know if we are right or not so to be safe I would definitely do the next 3 days in a row just to make sure you have definitely covered all bases.

OP posts:
snapple21 · 06/09/2020 21:13

I don't think they'll arrive in time. Should I have sex every night now for three nights to cover it?? I thought you should always take the first peak and not necessarily test after but I'm not sure!

Welliedays · 06/09/2020 21:04

@elakiya while I really want you to be pregnant.. I promise period cramping is so much better than early pregnancy symptoms (in my opinion!). I think the tiredness and the general feeling like you've got the worst hangover, and nausea really wouldn't help studying!

@snapple21 can you order more strips to arrive tomorrow?

@snapple21 oooh that definitely looks like a peak but without you having anymore strips to see if you still peak tomorrow its difficult to say. As with the soy all of us have been getting more than one day of peaks. I have a feeling if you had more tests you would see tomorrow is peak as well. So its a really tough call. I dont think you should ignore the monitor

snapple21 · 06/09/2020 20:47

Hi guys i think I just got my peak - what do you think? Should I ignore the clear blue monitor? And count tomorrow as ovulation?

@Elakiya yes we will 👀 !!!
Awww really, we are also still starting out we been doing it a while but we are by no means anything to write home about but we have an absolute blast doing it.
Awww is that what interests him photographing people? That's a great thing so he can learn to take photos at all the right angles lol!!! He can learn how to take photos of you and hide anything you don't like in photoshop lol. And if he is just taking of you to practice not to show anyone yet then it should be OK just for you and him to see 💜💜 it may even help you become more comfortable, maybe?

Elakiya · 06/09/2020 20:25

@candycrush2298 awww bless we'll see. My husbands into photography as well btw. He's just starting out though, I bought him a dslr for his last birthday. It's really fustrating because he wants to take pictures of me and I hate being photographed.

@Elakiya hahaha I just wanted a do nothing weekend but now I have to clean during the week so we at least come home to nice clean place argh dont know why I did it to myself. Thank you at least I dont feel alone whahahah.

I really hope you are pg this month too!! Would be so amazing for you to have no cramps while cramming but you could be trading it for nausea, paining boobs and all that beautiful stuff we get hahahah. I just want you to be pg so badly!!!

OP posts:
Elakiya · 06/09/2020 20:11

@candycrush2298 I've spent the weekend procrastinating so haven't done much better than you. I really hope I am PG this month because I could do without menstrual pains whilst I cram lol.
