Hello!

Continuation of our last thread…

All of us TTC and in different cycles and stages of our journey.

Helping eachother through the TWW, through the confusing days of OPK/BBT testing and charts, through all of the symptom spotting, the dreaded arrival of AF and the BFP announcements! 😊✨

January was a very lucky month for some who got their BFP and some of us are ready to make February our month!

With giggles and lots of support along the way.

Welcome!

@RMS0209 I was trying to do 4 hour holds and not drink because I was panicking I wasn’t ever going to get a peak lol. Also mine went up and down too.

On CD12 I got a 0.3 and a 0.4 and then CD13 dropped back down to 0.1s and 0.2s and then the above in my last message happened.

It sounds exactly like how my last cycle was x

Sorry if I miss anything I’m doing a very quick glance catch up as I’m on a work call currently bored lol

@SMD16 That’s the Premom overview isn’t it that shows peak and ovulation day etc.

Mine changes throughout my cycle slightly. I think as you log opks etc it adjusts. Mine hasn’t dipped that low on ovulation day before but it has dipped slightly. It may know from before that you peak high and drop suddenly or you haven’t been doing opks so much this time right? So it probably just hasn’t found a good baseline and that’s why it looks abit different. I think nothing to worry about Smile

@Bluets That is deffo a BFP Congratulations!! Grin

@RMS0209 Try to stay positive. It’s hard I know because this was exactly me last cycle. On CD13 and 14 I was getting all scores of 0.1s and 0.2s and then on CD14 night it jumped to 0.5s and then CD15 0.7s and then peak on CD16. I had a small peak of 0.91 but I was tracking temps so I know I ovulated.

My CD14s were - 0.15, 0.25, 0.27, 0.57. I took more that day because I was panicking lol.

I think maybe a later ovulation for you than you’re used to but it will come x

@Cookiedough123 I think I can see something!

Just bought some omega 3 which I probs should be taking anyways due to not eating fish🤮, Pre seed and evening primrose oil , hurry up Amazon driver 🤣

Cookiedough123 · 07/02/2022 11:55

@RMS0209 on CD14 my 1pm urine was 0.31. My 830pm was 0.56. I didnt test that morning but it would probably be similar. Test again later the next day on CD15 I got my peak!

So I saw a vvv faint line on my test this morning. I have attached it anyone wants to do some serious squinting 😂

Premom said this mornings on (just 5 mins ago) is 0.12... that isn't good for CD14 surly? I had higher last week! It's such a faint line aswell ShockConfusedHmm

@lakejupiter

Here you go *@RMS0209* (imagine me dressed as a butler revealing this below one of those big silver domes)
Haha my hero! Thank you. Just holding until 12 then I will do one x
SMD16 · 07/02/2022 11:32

@lakejupiter it's just on the home page of Premom, no idea what the chart is for it's just quick for me to say DPO etc lol.

@Bluets that line progression 😍😍😍 the cramping could be anything hun it could be everything making more room for the little bean to grow!

@Pops100 I haven't sorry, I'm not great at remembering to take anything 😂 wishing you lots of luck for this cycle x

Pops100 · 07/02/2022 11:24

@lakejupiter it may do , but his treatment starts 21st and then I'm predicted to ovulate on 20th so this cycle all should be okay ... hopefully!

They said symptoms will probs affect him around week 3 but he is getting his swimmers frozen before that.

Has anyone got experience with taking evening primrose oil? I'm about to buy some from Amazon but was told to stop taking it before my peak? I'm worried I'll take it when I Shouldnt 🥺🥺

@lakejupiter can you send me todays OPK cheapie? I want to compare to mine.. think I'm broken :)

lakejupiter · 07/02/2022 11:09

Congratulations @Bluets that's so exciting!!!! Definitely a BFP!!! 🤗

Is that a BBT chart @SMD16? I can't see temperatures or anything so not sure, but for BBT I find it easier to use either Fertility Friend or Femometer

Sorry about AF @Pops100 - does that put a spanner in the works re: your partner's treatment and TTC?

I'm hanging on over here. More medium rare OPKs and more flashing smileys. On CD15 so on high alert for my peak 👀 really want to inseminate on either peak day or ovulation day this month as I was so disappointed about ovulating late last month.

Pops100 · 07/02/2022 10:42

@Bluets that looks good! Congratulations lovely please keep us updated if you can on your journey ✨

Dreaded AF showed up a day early 😒, hope she doesn't linger and I can get back to OPK and BD!!

RMS0209 · 07/02/2022 10:32

@Bluets

Thanks everyone for your positivity! The cramping is really throwing me off and I just don't want to believe it could be true in case it's not, some really messed up thinking 😂

Pictures taken at the end of the 3 minute and 5 minute respectively. Still not particularly dark but I think I can see the difference

@Bluets I'm going to say congrats, can see the pink line getting darker on FRER 🎉 🎊 x

@SMD16 sorry I have no idea with bbt , am going to start tracking after next cycle though!

@Bluets fingers crossed for you🤞🏼🤞🏼 but sounds like your af won't be arriving for a long time! Xx

RMS0209 · 07/02/2022 10:19

@SMD16 I can't shed any light on the chart
Maybe @lakejupiter or @Newbiemg ?

@Bluets good to hear the pink line, send a picture in if you would like.. be nice to see Smile

SMD16 · 07/02/2022 10:15

@Bluets this is positive though if the line is darker? Want to share? I have everything crossed that AF stays away for you!!

Bluets · 07/02/2022 09:52

I can't shed any light on the BBT chart @SMD16, sorry! I hope someone can come along and shed some light for you.

I can however totally empathise with your need to plan. I have to actively work on being more go with the flow in all areas of my life, need to try to implement it for TTC too. I'm wondering if more yoga and some sort of mindfulness/meditation practice might help...

And love to see those beautiful pooch pics of Lyra and @Pops100 trio!

@RMS0209 I tested again this morning, FRER line a bit darker pink at 12 dpo than when I first tested at 10 dpo, I also got a light pink line on the easy@home pregnancy tests that come with the OPKs. I am cramping a bit more than I was before and I swear my period is coming though, due today. Going to stop testing for a few days and see if AF arrives and I was just really unlucky and got a bunch of evil evap/indents, or not.

SMD16 · 07/02/2022 09:41

Anyone had this happen? It didn't look like that earlier and doesn't look like it last month?

RMS0209 · 07/02/2022 09:34

@SMD16 if only it was as easy as it is in the movies, I said that the other day 😃
But we will still be optimistic... hopefully the next few days! Done my best to avoid covid since March 2020 but had to catch it when I'm TTC... grrr!

Is anybody testing today? Lots of luck for anybody who is 💫 x

SMD16 · 07/02/2022 09:26

@Newbiemg it's strange how much it can vary isn't it!

@RMS0209 I don't know about you but I like to plan everything, need to get my head around the fact that there's only so much I can plan for with TTC 😂
