POAS Anon Christmas Party 🌲🧑‍🎄 Ho ho ho-ws your line progression?! Thread 3

Are you planning on testing @positivitytree2020 I mean if you've had spotting a few days ago?! Maybe maybe maybe? 😍🙊

What length is your LP normally?

And thanks for the positivity! It is in your name after all 😉🤙🏼💛

@DrS44 I’m not sure exactly, it was over Xmas so I had stopped doing my OPKs! 😅
FF has me down as CD26 based on my temps, and Premom has me down as CD23 based on my temps! 🤷🏼‍♀️
So I’m gonna say somewhere between CD23-CD26!
Don’t lose hope, I normally ovulate around CD15 so hoping it was a rogue cycle! 😊

@positivitytree2020 what CD did you ovulate? Xxx

Thank you @positivitytree2020 hopefully it's just that for me too! As long as I ovulate I'll be happy 🤞🏻💛🌟

Also @Dex1521 agree with the every other day thing! 😂 every day just starts to become tedious! 😂 fertility specialists suggest every other day too! 😃

Sounds like you are on the right path @Dex1521, fingers crossed you’ll get your peak in the next few days! 😃🤞🏼

Don’t worry @DrS44 I had a rouge cycle this month and ovulated really really late! 😅 it’s normal to happen every now and then, stress can cause it! Or other factors! I don’t think it’s bad to have late ovulation? Just means you’ll have a longer cycle! 🤷🏼‍♀️

I am on CD38 and I neeeed this to end please! 😂 been spotting slightly since CD36 so just waiting on AF! Can’t wait to draw a line under this cycle it’s dragged!

Definitely gin for me @Greeneyedfairy

I’ve attached a photo of this afternoons OPK still low as expected but when I went to the toilet I had quite a bit of EWCM something I’ve never really had before so good sign ☺️ Will keep dtd every other day for this next week 💃🏼 ✨ and keep fingers crossed too. Every other cycle we dtd everyday and it just got so tiring hoping my changing things up it’ll give us more of a chance 😂

@Foxl2222 glad to see the line on the IC I think it looks decent strength of a line for an IC. Keep us updated though xx

Sorry, forgot to attach!

Feeling a bit more relieved today, thank you @Greeneyedfairy ☺️
This was my easy@home from this morning, and although not as dark as that frer I had, it's the darkest I've had on a cheapie!
This excited worry thing is a nightmare, you think all your worrries disappear with a bfp, they're only just starting 😂😂🙈
Hope you get those peaks soon @DrS44 @Dex1521 🤞🤞
Xx

If your BBT temps are still low, that would 💯 indicate ovulation hasn't occurred. Try not to worry about it, even though I know that is easier said than done when we are trying to get the timing right.

Sending or ... Which is your preference!?! 😊

Here's to stronger opks and lots of dtd

@Dex1521 I think 12DPO is good. Apparently anything from 11-14 days is normal. My LP has been far from normal and now it seems my ovulation date is also late!

You might just get a spike any day now! Apparently anything after CD21 is considered late ovulation - which is me. FML. X

@DrS44 hopefully it is just a late ovulation with your temps being low and you haven’t missed it. Got my fingers crossed for you

Yeah me and the OPKs are not getting on this month this is the longest I’ve waiting between AF and ovulating so I hope my tww is as close to two weeks as possible as every other cycle AF has been showing up CD12

@Dex1521 it's so frustrating isn't it?!

I did my temp yesterday and today it's low at 36.20 so I'm presuming it's not that I've missed my peak! Just ovulating very late if at all! At least you've got some time xx

Oo forgot to saw I had the tiniest bit of EWCM when I wiped earlier if I wasn’t looking for it I’d have missed it

@Greeneyedfairy CD20 and losing the will 😭😭

Since CD 15 I've had lots of EWCM, and had some mild cramping and spotting on CD16-18 I think! No idea what is going on I just want to peak so I can stop hassling the OH for sex 😅

@Greeneyedfairy just tested and got a 0.38 but I dropped the test after dipping and think it affected the dye in it as it ran all over the screen and wouldn’t clear so I will retest this evening again will have a drink with lunch then hold for about 1.5hours and should be ok. Temp dropped again today too it’s just gradually going down. Nothing else really to report

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I am now CD3, so nothing exciting happening I think I am due to ovulate on the 20th Jan,, so I have plenty of time..currently twiddling TTC thumbs

@Dex1521 and @DrS44 how were your ovulation tests today? Any other signs, such as EWCM &/or ovulation pain? Any BBT changes etc?

@Foxl2222 how are you feeling today! I hope all is well and that when you retested this morning all your worries faded away! I know it's hard to relax, when all you feel is an excited-worry combination

Thanks guys!! Gosh I love this thread, always straight on here with any questions and I know you's will reassure me 😂❤️
@Emmgrem good luck!! And enjoy dtd 😌🤞 xx

I've missed so much!

@Greeneyedfairy welcome! It's lovely to have another ttc-er and we'll outnumbered by all the grads now, such a successful thread! ✨ Sorry about your CP, and baby dust for this time round!

@jessi60 so lovely about your scan and the progression! I think what happened with your lucky cycle will always be one of the great mysteries of this thread. It's annoying that your illness threw everything out of kilter with your tracking and I think I'd be the same as you trying to work it all out to get the exact correct date but try not to worry too much!

@Dex1521 I think your low temps look fine and a good sign if anything as you'll be easily able to see the rise. My starting temps this month with FF are fluctuating quite a lot again (so much so that FF put my crosshairs on at CD6 at first 🙄) and I'm CD12 now and absolutely no signs or progression on OPKs whatsoever so think I'm going to have a late ovulation again this month. Gearing myself up to DTD as much as possible over the next week or so to cover all bases as never had much luck with OPKs.

@CardioQueen cannot believe the soft serve ice cream thing! I love a mr whippy in the summer- not so keen on McFlurry though but I'll have to remember that for the summer!

@Foxl2222 I agree your wee was probably just too diluted. I always did evening tests after a 2-3hr hold. The perils of being a poas addict eh? 🙂Hopefully it'll be back to normal in the morning, try not to worry x

@Foxl2222 I’d say it’s to do with your diluted wee. You’re not past AF yet are you? So if not they always say to hold your wee before testing if before AF. Try not to worry too much and test again tomorrow xx

@Greeneyedfairy let’s hope so 🤞 12pm is my usual time so will do. Thanks for you help x

Ok so just as i was so excited there, I decided to take another one just for reassurance. The line this time was much lighter 😞😞
Like the ones from a few days ago?
Earlier my wee was very dark and just now was almost like water, would this be a factor?
Quite worried now, this is most recent test! X

@Dex1521 looks like your temps are beginning to dip for ovulation. See what happens in the morning and take another opk approximately at 12pm to see if there is any progression

@Foxl2222 aw that’s brilliant! I’m dreaming of an FRER looking like that for me this month 🤞

@Greeneyedfairy I just went to FF to screenshot my charts and I’m a little ahead of myself I’m only CD 12 😂 I’m all over the place this cycle. Didn’t start BBT until CD 8 as I just couldn’t be bothered maybe it was the affects of Christmas and being off work. I’ve attached last cycle and this cycle so far for you to see anyways though

@DrS44 we will get there let’s just hope we fall pg the same cycle then we can be the yummy mummy’s of darlo 🤣🤣

Also all this McDonald’s talk I’m gonna have to go tomorrow and have a McFlurry in all of your honours 😂
