Let’s start with us and add others if they pop up on the other thread. Hopefully March is our month and we get a Mother’s Day BFP 🤞🏼
Cd1 for me!

Someone did say on here a few days ago, you can get more than one peak, your body gears up to ovulate but then doesn't and then you peak later on. Are you still doing opk?
Unless your temps are being affected by anything else, having you been waking in the night or anything?

Rmd123 · 05/03/2021 11:51

@Annannanna so is it possible to still get a temp rise maybe tomorrow even though I had peak fertility a few days ago? Hopefully that's the case.. but if so we probably should have DTD more 🙄 skipped last night as we did 6 days in a row!

Sorry to hear about your chemical that's tough xx

Annannanna · 05/03/2021 11:47

@Rmd123 sometimes you can ovulate late. In November I didn't ovulate until cd33 following a chemical pregnancy the month before.
At the time I thought I was pregnant as my period was late but it turned out I just ovulated late. I google searched hundreds of posts of women in the same situation and most of them ovulated late.

ShonC · 05/03/2021 11:11

So happy to have got my period today as I will hopefully ovulate later this month and fresh start TTC 🥰 baby dust to all xx

Rmd123 · 05/03/2021 08:56

Peak on day 15th* not 25th

Rmd123 · 05/03/2021 08:55

Hi ladies! If anyone knows much about BBT can you have a look at this please? I don't think I've ovulated this month which is heart breaking. Last month I had my peak OPK on the 25th and temp rise the 18th. I haven't had a temp rise yet. Is it too late? Thanks

Morning ladies!
How we all? 7 dpo for me!
Lol this TWW is going so slow 😩

timeisnotaline · 05/03/2021 00:37

I’m finding it much harder waiting to test this time around. I think because while I very much want #3 I like my job and it would be really helpful to have another couple of months without being pregnant... I’m sure I waited 14 days other times. This time I’m going nuts at 6dpo (guessing somewhat on o but i had spotting and can’t think what else that could be)

LKB89 · 04/03/2021 21:59

@Cakelaur 11 highs wow!!! I wouldn't mind seeing one soon 🤣
We DTD this AM after I saw the EWCM so I've definitely covered that corner 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Cakelaur · 04/03/2021 21:44

It's defo time to crank up the crazy! 😂

jodielouise26 · 04/03/2021 21:42

@Cakelaur yeah full on auntie Flo 😒

I will be religiously testing & informing the OH of the upcoming agenda 😂 x

Cakelaur · 04/03/2021 21:35

Oh no!!! Sorry @jodielouise26 did it turn into full AF? Sorry. I was hoping it might have be implantation bleed and maybe you'd ovulated a bit later. Sending hugs. Hopefully this is your month. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

jodielouise26 · 04/03/2021 21:20

@Cakelaur oh. When I googled it it says 11-17 and I did it on an app and it classed it as normal.

Ah well, that's my first AF since my MC so hopefully next cycle for me 👍🏻 x

Cakelaur · 04/03/2021 21:01

@LKB89 welcome back. Sorry AF showed. I have the opposite problem to you. I jump straight to high and sit there for weeks! I had about 11 highs this month before I gave up! If there's ewcm... pounce!

@Redbrickhouse you defo need to be testing at least twice a day. Around 10am and 6pm. I generally do twice a day until I'm a few days off peak, then I up it to 3/4 times a day then once it starts going dark I do every wee.

@jodielouise26 if you ovulated 17days ago you'd defo have a positive test. So I'd say you didn't ovulate then. Because I think it's an abnormality to have more than 16day LP. Generally between 10-14 is normal.

@Mum2Girls19 looks good for implantation. When is AF due? But generally 48hrs after implantation you'd get a bfp.

LKB89 · 04/03/2021 14:46

Hey guys!
I was in the first forum but AF reared her ugly head, so here I am in the new one 😜

CD11. Trying OPKS for the first time. I have the CB Advanced digital...started using them on CD7 and I've had 'Low Fertility' everyday so far, however seemed to have EWCM this morning after a wee 🤷🏻‍♀️

Anyone else had 5 days low before? Suppose it's only early but I can't help worrying. My cycles are usually 27-30 days! Mostly 28/29.

Lots of luck everyone 💫✨

Redbrickhouse · 04/03/2021 14:20

Ok thanks that gives me sure reassurance, I’ll keep testing twice a day and DTD anyway 🤞🏻This is the month

jodielouise26 · 04/03/2021 13:23

@Cakelaur is it?

I think I ovulated on 16th (ewcm) and 17th was slightly higher LH. But then started getting less and less..

All this confuses me 😒

timeisnotaline · 04/03/2021 13:03

Hmm yes I should add pretty sure I tested every 2-3 days with opk so maybe I did miss it. Sorry, just remembered that reading annas comment.

timeisnotaline · 04/03/2021 13:02

I used opks with my first two red and I was never sure if I could pick ovulation from them. I did fall preg with both in 1-2 months so obviously I did ovulate, and it did appear slightly but from (ageing unreliable) memory nothing like some of the pictures on this thread . Once you’ve done it for a month or two I guess you will know if it’s just later in your cycle as opposed to hard to tell/ worried about not ovulating (which is by far the least likely)

Annannanna · 04/03/2021 12:56

@Redbrickhouse I only get a faint second line in the run up to ovulation, it's only maybe one or two days near my peak that I get darker lines. I think some get a slow rise so will see the lines getting darker but others get a sudden rise. Keep testing at least twice a day in your fertile week so you don't miss the rise x

Redbrickhouse · 04/03/2021 12:34

Ladies please shed some light im at a loss with opks. I’ve just started using them this month, according to dates I should be ovulating in 2/3days. I started using them 4 days ago and only 1 line was showing up and still with 3 days to go only 1 line, I’m using IC, is this normal? When should the line, even if light, start appearing?

Annannanna · 04/03/2021 12:21

@Mum2Girls19 yeah that looks like it could be an implantation dip! 🤞🏼

@timeisnotaline welcome! I am going to keep on going even if it's a Christmas baby, not ideal but I've just turned 39 so don't want to waste any time.

I had a slight temp rise this morning so I think I ovulated yesterday or it might be today

1sttime21 · 04/03/2021 12:05

@Mum2Girls19 yeah it could be implantation but will normally take atleast 2 days after implantation for hcg to rise enough to show a positive pregnancy test

Mum2Girls19 · 04/03/2021 11:59

Hi all

Need advice

Think im 11 DPO today
Temp dropped yesterday and went up today

Could that be implantation??
I tested this morning looks like a negative...

timeisnotaline · 04/03/2021 11:30

Hi all, joining in. I think I’m nearly exactly the same as penny- ttc #3, had implant out end feb, should test mid/end of next week depending on when I cave. I’m not temping or anything. I’m not at all keen on a Christmas baby really but not prepared to stop trying I think as I’m already heading for a 3.5y gap after my second and thats longer than I’d like. Plus I’m not getting any younger.
