@Emmgrem I’ve just looked. Your CD 6 was dead dark wasn’t it! X

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 15:20

@Emmgrem maybe it’s because all my ones before were low? So it’s automatically put it as a high reading? I think the line is quite dark on mine to just be 0.64 🤷🏻‍♀️ X

@jessi60 that cracked me up about the stork!! I would've been majorly freaked out 🤣

How weird that the E@H tests show up higher- glad I bought those now.

@Bells20 when you said premom finds your peak later on when it goes back lower again... how you see/tell that? I'm wondering whether that will happen to me since my 0.71 was classed as 'low' by it, but @jessi60 has high for a 0.6 something as it's an E@H test. God it's so confusing!

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 15:10

@AMS19 eee I know, that’s how much I’m loosing the plot. I was stood staring at it for ages like how weird that I’ve just found this. It must be a sign 😂😂

Then I thought hang on..... did a quick google and other people got them as a freebie. Apparently a good luck charm. Could only happen to me 🤣

AMS19 · 19/11/2020 15:06

@jessi60 that cracked me up! It went from a sign from God to a free gift from being a POAS very quickly

@jessi60 my tests went from 0.2 on Tuesday to 0.8 (peak) yesterday and then to 0.4 I think today so the peak is such a small window! Deffo get in the bedroom!! 💃🏼 ✨ 👶

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 14:19

Ah okay, actually laughing here. Turns out it was a free gift with that clear blue test😂😂😂 must of fell out when I was putting the rubbish in the bin. Eeeee Christ 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Bells20 · 19/11/2020 14:17

@jessi60 omg!! How strange! Defo a sign to dtd if you ask me haha

Bells20 · 19/11/2020 14:16

@jessi60 ahhhh look at that! That looks like an excellent line! Premom will only give you a peak when the percentage starts getting lower again so if you got 0.5 tomorrow let's say, premom will tell you that this OPK was your peak. It might go up a bit more though why don't you try again in a few hours? (You might not want to literally piss away your money of course but as a POAS addict I would def be testing again in a few hours 😂)

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 14:16

Just went to open my back door and this was just lying on the door mat. It’s freaked me right out. It’s a stork with a baby 😂

@DrS44 Haha last night I said this is not going to be forever you know every single day 😂 this was because I was going off my fertile week in the app so started on Saturday haha, but been doing it every other day.
Think it’s just hard when you work long hours and are up early and some nights you do just want to relax and chill out but needs must 🤣 I said to him if this approach doesn’t work in the next couple of months then we will just relax it and just dtd when it happens naturally and what will be will be. Xx

DrS44 · 19/11/2020 13:57

@AMS19 hmmm it's stopped again now... strange... my nipples are still tender so many it's just ovulation calming down 🤷🏼‍♀️ who knows! I'll be having a drink this weekend for sure 🥳🥂

DrS44 · 19/11/2020 13:54

@jessi60 tell him he can have next weekend 🤣 the numbers really don't matter much. I got something similar and then next morning it was high.. when you peak ovulation happens 12-36 hours after so it's a pretty small window! Good that you've done it already but worth again today and tomorrow, ideally Saturday too 🤣🤣 xxx

AMS19 · 19/11/2020 13:48

@DrS44 nope didn't feel anything really until further along. My only symptom was feeling sick when I drunk from about 6DPO

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 13:47

@DrS44 Well my first wee or the day was only like 11am cause I was holding it in until my clear blue came. And then this was my second wee or the day😂 but the wee was still quite dark. We dtd last night. Will try today but think my partner is ready to keel over 🤣🤣 x

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 13:45

It’s maybe a touch lighter than the control but 0.64 is the highest am getting🤣

DrS44 · 19/11/2020 13:44

@jessi60 when did you wee last and had you anything else to drink? That's till high - it might peak in the morning if you've not missed it! Get into that bedroom 💃🏼😅 xxx

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 13:42

@DrS44 Yeah it’s in the right section. I’ve tried loads of different photos and scanned them in cause I thought it would be higher but was still only getting 0.64😂 x

DrS44 · 19/11/2020 13:32

@jessi60 YASSSSS 🥳🥳 have you put it in the easy at home tab too? That looks like it's almost as dark?? Xx

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 13:29

So I had been using wilko own brand ovulation tests. Did one this morning got 0.31 low. I ordered some of the easy at home ones when someone pointed out my strips were abit blurry looking, they’ve just came so I’ve done one and this is the result 🧐 x

@AMS19 @GreenApplesYo did either of you feeling anything after ovulation? I'm getting very mild cramp like sensations atm... and they're sporadic 🤷🏼‍♀️ but to be fair I've had lots of this since I've come off the pill! Surely it would be too early to feel anything like implantation? It's only been 4 days 🤣 xxx

jessi60 · 19/11/2020 13:14

@Emmgrem Yeah my app has me down to ovulate today 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 but everything it low. Guess it’s just an estimate x

Emmgrem · 19/11/2020 13:12

@positivitytree2020 @Bells20 @jessi60 @CardioQueen @Dex1521 @DrS44

Glad we're all in a similar boat! Definitely would be good to know what's going on with our bodies without having to POAS every 5 mins 😂

To make some of you feel better mine have been 0 since CD6 even though premom is telling me I'll be ovulating tomorrow. FF thinks I'm 'probably not' fertile now, even though it never pinpointed any early ovulation 🤷🏻‍♀️ and Femometer thinks it already happened.

I bought easy@home tests and actually got excited this morning seeing a low 0.12 reading just because it's not a stark white 0 😂😂😂 it comes to something when you get excited over that!

I got a zero yesterday! Had to pee on a stick to satisfy my cravings 🤣🤣

Bells20 · 19/11/2020 12:43

Ooh more 0s! Definitely seems quite common then. I have had a 0 a couple of times but it's been when I haven't taken the photo properly because I've always been able to see even a very faint line. Fingers crossed for you @CardioQueen for your peak soon!
