April 2021 TTC - let's chat :)

@Onehotmess surely 3 tests wouldn’t all show evap lines? I can definitely see a line on that one and I think it looks darker compared to yesterday! Can you get any other tests to confirm? If you’re only 8dpo then it would be faint! I think it’s a positive sign 💕

[quote Timeandtidal]@Onehotmess Did the faint line appear within the test time frame? X[/quote]
Yes it came up within 2 mins.

@Mumofboys20122017 it’s difficult to say - if the dark but negative OPk was a sign of impending ovulation then I would guess that I ov on Friday or Saturday and DTD Friday. So that would put me at 8 dpo? However my app says I ov yesterday but despite doing OPk 2 x per day since Monday I have only had the faintest lines and literally blank today and yesterday x

@Onehotmess Did the faint line appear within the test time frame? X

Did another OPk and hpt- OPk blank, hpt is ‘positive’ but I’m thinking they are evaps they are so faint

@Onehotmess everything crossed for you for tomorrow morning, hope you manage to get some sleep tonight!! 🤞🏻✨✨✨

@Onehotmess yup so could have been early ov and you caught it! FMU test next sounds like a plan

@Tryingandhopeful yes super lucky thread. Lots of ovulation tracking strategies so must partly be this. And the excellent advice and lovely vibes. Sending buckets of baby dust to everyone TTCing this month 💫🤞

@Tryingandhopeful the tests I did today were about 5/6 pm so not fmu. Will try again tomorrow. X

@Tryingandhopeful I have about 50 cheapies 🙈🤪
@Timeandtidal I did OPk last Friday/sat and it was darkish but negative so left it until Monday and OPk was completely blank, same on tues weds thurs and today. So though maybe could the surge have been sat/sun or even last Thursday?! 🙈🙈 this stuff drives me bonkers! X

@Puppymamababymama yay congratulations 🎉 💕 told you the CBD would tell you!! So nice to see it in actual words 😍

I mean this is one super lucky thread girls 🙌🏻

@Onehotmess I can see a line on both middle and bottom one!!! Wow maybe you just ovulated really early this cycle and caught the egg 😉 when did you do your tests? Was it with FMU? Have you got any other tests for the morning? Feeling excited for you 😍

@Onehotmess Yes I can see a faint line on the middle test! Did you track your ovulation through the month? Early ovulation possible? How long is your cycle?

I look an ovulation test (green one) and it’s negative so I thought well I’m either not ovulating or I’m already pregnant so I did a preg test (bottom one) left it too long so can’t trust the line. Did another and it’s got a line! WTAF?! I’m CD 19, this can’t be right can it?!

@purpleskyssssss Argh! Yes see how the next couple of days go and keep us posted! Hope you can relax over the weekend. ❤

@tothemoonandback21 @Timeandtidal I had the same feeling but just got back from the shop with some cheapies and negative! So we will see what happens over the next couple of days!

Thank you so much everyone for the congratulations 💐 I wish everyone else lick for the BFPs!

@Veronika13 I'm 15DPO today

@purpleskyssssss I agree that CP messes up your ovulation. I had one last month and it made my period 7 days and it has always been 5 without fail. I also had spotting before and I never get that it's always heavy the whole way through. It also makes me wonder if I ovulated later because last month with the CP I picked up pregnancy at 11DPO and this time I was getting very faint lines only at 14DPO. So I think it would be something to consider, but I would try what the other ladies said first cause I haven't tried tracking ovulation myself.

Delighted, even!

Huge congratulations @Puppymamababymama! Delighyed for you. What a few days you've had. Enjoy the weekend now and relax!

@purpleskyssssss I second PP that a HPT would be an idea. I got a strong OPK 10 dpo which is what made me suspect I had conceived. At the same time, I agree that CP messes up ovulation. After mine I went from always having textbook 28 day cycles , with Ov on CD14, to 31 day cycles with ovulation about CD18. Definitely good you have this information if you do SMEP next month. I'm really hoping you might not need to 🤞🤞

@Puppymamababymama congratulations hun xx

@purpleskyssssss that does sound odd 🧐 have you taken an HPT? Just in case your OPK is picking up pregnancy and your ovulation sticks somehow missed your ovulation this month?🤞🏻Well done for keeping going with the SMEP regardless! 😅

@Puppymamababymama woooohooo congratulations!!! 💐 This is a great advert for CB 😆 Wishing you a healthy and happy pregnancy, enjoy celebrating it this weekend 😊

Amazing @Puppymamababymama that is amazing news congrats!!

Well I have had the strangest cycle this month religiously have a cycle 26-29 days, Ive had unusual % on my easy at home ovulation test and today on day 28 I have just hit my 'peak' (highest reading so far). So don't have a clue what is happening this month

It makes me wonder if last cycle I had a CP as I did a test and I seen a very faint to the eye line, took a pic but the next day I tested again and they was no line so convinced myself I was imagining things, also last period lasted 6 days (normally 4 days) - when ive been looking online a CP can really mess your next ovulation up, so it would explain I suppose! So fingers crossed just keep having to DTD don't think OH will be too pleased as this is the first month we have been doing SMEP

Omg congrats @Puppymamababymama !!!! I'm so excited for you! You must be over the moon 🥳 how many dpo are you? X

Over the moon right now! I took the other dollar test just to see and I saw another faint line but definitely darker than yesterday then I decided to do the CBD and we have success! I still can't believe it! Thank you ladies so much for helping me through this interesting time 💕 I know I'll still be very nervous until that first scan but I'm so grateful 💐

@Tryingandhopeful Thanks a lot for sharing what you're thinking and what you've found out. I will also talk go my doctor. Second trimester would feel a lot more comfortable, I totally agree.
