Sorry you're still in the waiting game @RHODXB it must be even harder when you thought you were there.

Welcome @Billythecat I'm 9-11dpo (depending on which app, I didn't properly ppl last cycle) but did a test yesterday and was bfn so going to wait a few more days now and try and be patient... Meaning I'll probably cave and test again tomorrow! No will power. Fingers crossed for you and @Dogmum13 too the next few days.

Has anyone gone from ovulation tests to some form of semen* every couple of days till period pitched up?

*the boyfriends an icu nurse & there may be days where physical sex isn’t possible.

MgW1 · 01/02/2021 20:09

@RHODXB
Is there not a line on your CB test? Looks like a faint line to me xx

glow92 · 01/02/2021 18:52

@BWaiting I haven't used femometer, but the picture definitely looks like a 'low' reading.
I've found they can be affected a lot by lighting/background etc. I use premom and I got a couple weird readings at first...keep going and go by the lines you see πŸ™‚.

BWaiting · 01/02/2021 18:28

Hi ladies, I hope you're all well and staying sane wherever you are in your cycles.

I have just popped in for some advice.
So I'm on CD5/6 of cycle #2. Last cycle I thought I would wing it and see how it goes.
This time I bought some Femometer strips from Amazon and I used one today to get the feel of it for a little later in the cycle but....is this correct/normal? Shouldn't it be in the 'low' section rather than high (even though I know it's only 15%).
I've never used anything like this before so just checking in reading it right.
Any advice is much welcome! I'm not going to rely on this and will DTD every other day but...help!

Thank you so much xx

Jumping on the Feb bus! AF due on the 16th. No idea where I'm at or what I'm doing this month but I'm feeling chilled about it! OH birthday is on Friday so that is keeping my mind nice and busy!

Billythecat · 01/02/2021 15:47

@Dogmum13 that’s a good idea, I would want to know that too. I think I will be testing over the next few days, just have mixed feelings about it as a BFN is crushing, although so is AF and I would prefer a warning if that is coming Smile. Maybe I will test tomorrow morning if I remember first thing! Good luck

Dogmum13 · 01/02/2021 15:32

@Billythecat I've been testing from 10dpo every other day until af shows up the past couple of cycles because I want to see if I even have any chemicals

glow92 · 01/02/2021 15:26

@RHODXB my first time using them too, didn't plan to use them every month but I'm going to have to I think now my dates are messed up.
Hope you get answers soon.

RHODXB · 01/02/2021 15:22

Thanks @glow92 it's so hard not to just keep clutching isn't it! I really think I might have caught this month even if it hasn't stuck as I do feel pregnant! And this was first month using OPKs so def worth it I think!

glow92 · 01/02/2021 14:56

@RHODXB hang in there, if you're 11DPO there's still chance.. so annoying though I feel for you πŸ’œ.

After having last cycle cut short 5 days early and AF arriving at 9DPO I'm so confused on dates for this month! Gonna need about 9000 OPK's this time to make sure I catch things right πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ.
CD4 for me now (should be CD29/12DPO πŸ™„).

Billythecat · 01/02/2021 14:45

@Dogmum13 hi! Are you planning on testing or just waiting to see if AF turns up? I am torn! I think I probably will test before I am due as I would prefer to know ahead of time if AF is coming as I was pretty upset and disappointed last month. Going to try to wait a few more days though! Smile Fingers crossed for you!

Dogmum13 · 01/02/2021 14:33

@Billythecat Hi πŸ‘‹ I'm 8dpo πŸ™‚

I have what looks like a very faint evap line though today on the one from last night

RHODXB · 01/02/2021 13:26

2 more BFN today 😣 must have been a faulty test! That or a chemical 😒

Billythecat · 01/02/2021 13:09

Hi! Joining for this month! TTC #1 since Oct 2020. Currently 9dpo and trying to put off testing as I don’t want the disappointment! Smile

IndigoJam · 01/02/2021 12:55

Hey all, how are you? Starting to think my cb ovulation holder is broken. On cd12 and I've had 5 days of low fertility. Only got 2 sticks left too.

Dogmum13 · 01/02/2021 11:59

Does anyone else get waves of nausea in the second week of the ttw?

Incrediblytired · 01/02/2021 08:11

@RHODXB Yay!!! This is great news! Good luck!

Penguinmumma · 31/01/2021 21:51

@RHODXB that was deffo a positive. If you did them all in 4hrs of each other then your sample would be massively diluted. Do another with fmu and I bet you a brownie it’s positive!

GreysEmma · 31/01/2021 21:29

Hi ladies

Id like to join! Im 30 and ttc #2 , on cycle day 7. Came off the pill in November but this will be first month offically trying as wanted a couple of normal cycles first. I fell quite quickly with my first (hes almost 3 now) so hoping will again , though I did use OPKs first time but just using Ovia app for now and see how it goes 🀞

Good luck everyone!

Sparkles512 · 31/01/2021 21:23

Hi Ladies!

I'm currently waiting for AF to arrive so we can start trying for another month!

TTC our first baby, I'm 26 and husband is 30. We started trying in 2019 then had a break when Covid hit in March 2020, we have been trying again since October 2020.

We had 2 close friends announce accidental pregnancies over Christmas so we are just waiting for our turn!

Fingers crossed for you all 🀞

Izzie94 · 31/01/2021 21:18

Hey ladies,

Can I join please? ☺️ CD1 for me!

TTC baby number #1, but #2 for DH. I’m 26, he’s 32, we’ve had private fertility tests and no known issues. I’m ovulating, tubes are clear, everything’s good but we started trying Jan 2020. Not one BFP yet... here’s to lucky cycle #14, month 13 ✨🀍

We’ve got this girls, 2021 is our year!!!

Dogmum13 · 31/01/2021 18:35
