Hello!

TTC #2, 36 yo. I should be dpo 1 today, I could feel ovulation yesterday evening, had peak opk yesterday morning.

I will try to test only on day when AF due, so next Sunday, as I've had 2 chemicals so unfortunately not expecting magic.

@HelloMoon87 @Tes004 @missmae

BlossomTree123 · 14/07/2023 21:55

@pinkandredflowers I ovulated around the 4th I think and looking at the lines it was darker so I think it was right? Maybe I should DTD incase ahaha

@HelloMoon87 thank you!!! Yes I wanted to continue doing them as my first month to learn my cycle. And had a smiley literally 3 days after period and the line was so faint, so did it again and for a smiley CD13 which felt about right and had ovulation pains, so glad I carried on, but lately it’s just confused me!

i will wait it out and if no period by Sunday I will do a test. It’s so draining but thank you so much for the advice!

@HelloMoon87 ahh good luck I have my fingers crossed! And that’s good you have lots planned! And honestly I’m still not convinced 😅I do think af might come! I will test in the morning of course 🫣set an earlier alarm so I can stare at the test for 30 minutes lmao. 😅 (I wish I was joking). Maybe again in the evening tomorrow too.. I will most likely keep testing until af is due 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

There is one silver lining for me to not be pregnant. I've got few August weddings abroad and if I'm pregnant now, I'm probably going to be quite sick then. But I've really got to be pregnant next cycle (no pressure 😂) I want a spring baby and not too large gap between my two. In any case, I want a baby so doesn't really matter haha

@missmae yes, I'm going test tomorrow morning and late afternoon, and then I think I'll take a break to chill. I've also got lots planned this weekend to keep myself busy 😂
@missmae I'm keeping everything crossed for you. It is looking promising, will you test tomorrow or skip the weekend?

missmae · 14/07/2023 21:40

@HelloMoon87 so you will test tomorrow too? Good luck! I’m working this weekend so hopefully will take a mental break from this all lol. if my lines don’t progress and at shows I will also join you next month 😂 but still fingers crossed for us that that will not be the case!🤞🏼

@Tes004 I know it's so disheartening! I told OH that I got bfn today, and he gave me a massive hug which was lovely. I'll join you on the next cycle, as I'm feeling out with my lack of symptoms the chances feel low...

@missmae yes I'm the same. I had peak on 3rd, but I also think I ovulated same day.

@pinkandredflowers awww I know it can be stressful after you get positive, but you're pregnant and there is nothing you can do differently. Happy and healthy 9 months 💚

@PuddleSplosher you're doing well lol, I wish I hadn’t started testing so early because I’m now trapped! Will be gutted if af shows!

missmae · 14/07/2023 20:58

I guess I could either be 10/11dpo. But normally I’m sure I do ovulate on day of peak going off symptoms too. 🤔 @HelloMoon87

@pinkandredflowers wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months, sticky baby dust!! 🫶🏼
will have a look into those boots tests!

missmae · 14/07/2023 20:55

@HelloMoon87 cd14, 15 & 16!

pinkandredflowers · 14/07/2023 20:55

Thanks guys! 11 DPO I think based on opks. I feel very lucky that it is positive but also v nervous and the cramping is making my nerves worse even tho I think it's normal. Digital was negative yesterday so must have just reached enough hcg today! I felt quite sick this morning so had some toast and felt better.

My chart was basically nothing then peaked on 2nd July so assuming I ovulated on the 3rd. I stopped testing opks after that so not sure what would have happened after.

Really have my fingers crossed for all of youuu 🤞 I would really recommend the boots early tests they have given me the best lines. Other tests are still realllllly faint.

missmae · 14/07/2023 20:54

@HelloMoon87 I didn’t chart my opks just because I roughly know when I ovulate so I only test a couple of days before and after! but this pic is 3rd July. It was my peak on cd15. Negative after!

I’ve just read through this thread and I’m loving the collective over-analysis of every possible symptom. Makes me feel less crazy for doing the same! I’m 11dpo and can’t bring myself to test yet 🙈

missmae · 14/07/2023 20:48

Omg @pinkandredflowers !!!! Congratulations! So exciting! 😭🥺🩷

@pinkandredflowers @missmae I wonder if you could share your opks chart. Thanks

Congratulations @pinkandredflowers !!! How exciting! How are you feeling?

I was really convinced I might get a positive earlier after the faint whisper last night but nothing at all today! Will test again first thing tomorrow and will update!

Tes004 · 14/07/2023 20:10

@pinkandredflowers how many dpo are you ? Must be so lovely to see a test you don’t doubt lol !! Xx

pinkandredflowers · 14/07/2023 19:52
