@EdinburghGirl1 Yes I hope spotting doesnt start as that's my main symptom for pregnancy x

@TTCourfirst It is still early. Some people get darker lines in afternoon ice heard. Perhaps test in a few days again and see Goodluck!

@jalu47 Yes maybe next month if you don't catch this month, test a few more days after peak to see if it changes.

@Jade57 Sorry you're ill x always comes at the worst time doesn't it. Hope you feel better x

11DPO. No spotting yet. I was considering test today but it would mean getting a test this afternoon and testing at work. I might pick a test up tomorrow when I go in town then test after AF. Still expecting spotting to come.

@TTCourfirst how quickly did the line come up? I've had similar evaps on those tests, but they all appeared way out of the set timeframe you're meant to check. Although even if it's an evap, 8DPO is super early. Fingers crossed for a BFP!

TTCourfirst · 28/08/2022 08:26

I can’t tell if this is a BFP or an evap? I tested at 11pm last night and this morning it’s slightly lighter. I’m 8DPO

jalu47 · 28/08/2022 07:57

Sorry to hear you're feeling rubbish @Jade57 . It's so annoying when illness affects planning. We both had covid and had a very hit and miss month earlier in the year!

Following my bfn I'm quite confused what my cramping was on 2/3 DPO. I'm wondering if maybe I've got my ovulation wrong and I had a second peak. I think I'm going to keep LH testing post ovulation next month..

Jade57 · 28/08/2022 07:38

Hi girls, so after all my confusion with the OPK they are finally getting darker. Possibly could have peak today or tomorrow but have come down with tonsillitis and feel awful! So looks like this month won't be our month

EdinburghGirl1 · 28/08/2022 07:18

@BirdIsland so you now ovulate around CD15 and have around 9 day luteal phase? Yes that is quite short. I've heard vitamin B6 can help to lengthen it

@My2boysaremyworld that sounds promising. Fingers crossed for you.

@BellaTheDarkOverlord I'm hoping these are good signs for you.

@My2boysaremyworld There could be some truth in it. Not sure.

I think I had a little bit of pink on toilet roll this afternoon. Very slight. But then since had nothing. I'm hoping spotting doesn't start. Would mean AF definitely on her way. No symptoms today. After midnight and 11DPO now.

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 16:20

@BellaTheDarkOverlord fingers crossed for you. I'm sure there's nothing in the tests either just wondered. Iv never tested after this late. Never got to do a second test after my peak as went away that day xx

@My2boysaremyworld I know how you feel. I was broke too after holiday. DD moaned loads as it was so hot but I struggled too tbf. I've never checked with ovulation sticks but I'm sure someone on last thread did and proved they didn't make a difference I think.

@NatalieSF Have fun! 😁Get BDing!

I'm slightly getting hopeful. Tmi but I usually have spotting after going to toilet following constipation. I've "been" but no spotting. Dare I get hopeful 😆Still only early at 10DPO.

OP posts:

NatalieSF · 27/08/2022 15:32

Finally got my peak 🥰 time to BD! Flashing smiley this morning but solid this afternoon 😁

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 13:50

Has anyone tested on ovulation tests after ovulation? Iv just done one at 6DPO and got a reading of 0.14 and my last reading day after my peak was 0.22. Can this mean anything? Xx

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 12:24

@BellaTheDarkOverlord yes thanks, broke now. Kids drove me mad!! There away with their dad from Monday so I know I will miss them lol. Yeah the pains were strange 🤷🏻‍♀️xx

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 27/08/2022 12:17

@My2boysaremyworld Did you have a good holiday? The shock pains sound promising x Hope this is your month.

@kizzy97 Im expecting mine Wednesday too but expecting spotting any day before as usually happens.

@BirdIsland Sorry you're having a hard time. I don't have advice on the short cycles sorry. Someone hopefully will x

Hey everyone, just catching up, I've taken a bit of a step back this month as I was getting a bit down ☹️ Lovely to see some BFPs and good luck to those waiting to test 🤞

AF is on her way for me, at 9DPO. I've looked back at the app I used when we were trying for DD and I've realized my luteal phase hasn't shortened, it's my ovulation date that's pushed back by 3 days (CD12 to CD15). Not sure why, or how to manage that yet as on a 24 day cycle CD15 is just way too late. Any advice welcome!

kizzy97 · 27/08/2022 10:56

@BellaTheDarkOverlord still no af 😫 if she's not her3 Wednesday I'll do another test and it'll be a week then

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 09:42

Hi all I'm back off my holiday now. I'm 6DPO and not feeling anything yet just tender boobs. Had some strange shock pains in my tummy and sides on holiday. We was walking by the beach and had this shock from no where!! Also been having like stitch pain but bad in my right side xx

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 09:40

@roorooA that's definitely a line, congratulations 🥰

@jalu47 yeah I read something about that recently. Fingers crossed for this time round

@EdinburghGirl1 @jalu47 Sorry for BFNs X you're not out yet though. Goodluck and hope AF doesn't show.

Really hoping I don't start spotting. I'm 10DPO and will start spotting anyday until AF now.

OP posts:

roorooA · 27/08/2022 09:13

I think I might be, due period tomorrow - this is just a cheap one...what you think?

jalu47 · 27/08/2022 08:44

I got a bfn too @EdinburghGirl1 - was really hopeful during the start of TWW but less so the last couple of days. I have been doing acupuncture for a few months and she said really I should wait for the 3rd month as that's how long it takes follicles to develop. Positive for next cycle!

EdinburghGirl1 · 27/08/2022 06:49

@mamazac that's exciting. Good luck with todays test. I tested and got a bfn which I had totally expected but still can't help being disappointed so thinking it will be onto cycle 4 for me. I conceived my DD on cycle 4 last time so maybe it'll be the same. Got some reflexology booked too before ovulation so hoping that might help.

I know this might sound strange but when ttc#1 I ovulated first 3 times from left ovary and nothing then 4th cycle was from my right and got my bfn. This time round it's been the same, 3 ovulations from left side and nothing. Could it be my left side just isn't as good? Really hoping for right side ovulation next cycle. We go on holiday next month so most of my tww will be on holiday so at least I'll be more distracted. If my cycle is similar I'd be due the day before we come home. I think I'll try leave tests at home so this next time there will be no early testing

@elm26 Sorry x Hope AF doesn't arrive in full x

@kizzy97 I know what you mean by wet feeling. I get it before AF too x

@mamazac Goodluck!! I'm hoping to test after AF due which is due 31st. I'm being so good not testing so far 😀Im 10DPO today (Saturday). I've had no spotting yet which I get as early as 7DPO before AF. I'm hoping it doesn't come! Only other symptoms are slight twinges.

MIL asking if we going camping again next year. DH says to me not if we have a newborn. No one knows we TTC so trying to avoid MIL and holiday conversation 😁Rather have newborn than a holiday though!

🙏🏻 hopefully this turns darker then it's onto the madness of clexane injections, steroids, progesterone. X

Tested the same faint positive this morning now spotting Ted so AF on her way ☹️ good luck to those testing soon! 🤞🏻
