@Kellyaust in my books, if I cover the day BEFORE ovulation, I feel like I did my best, the trouble is it's so hard to know that day, so I end up guessing. Good luck!

@Kellyaust honestly, I think you're probably good, I think you definitely covered it. Maybe ovulation is today if lh is dropping and yesterday's dtd should cover today. I did it too much and got myself UTI this month 😂

Omg yes last month I got thrush and a uti from it and was so poorly and depressed I totally changed my game this month!! Hopefully it works 🤞

BlossomTree123 · 11/08/2023 12:29

@HelloMoon87 @missmae have my FRER from Amazon too. Have one to take, waiting a few days as only 11DPO today.
i used the 6 days early Cb one too and got a good line but the normal CB one also picked it up for me (but was fainter).
going to do another CB tomorrow to compare to yesterdays, and then I have a digital one left which I’m going to take the day my period is due. According to my app 3 weeks 4 days??

Thank you so much for all your support. I cannot thank this thread enough, it's been a source of hope.

@Doodlestar yes it was within the timeframe and I have about 20 of those strip tests so will defo be testing tomorrow🤣

Thank you @HelloMoon87 and @missmae . I hope your tests get darker @HelloMoon87 , its such a nerve-wracking time. Its such a shame that frers are gone, I am in Ireland and cant find them anywhere.

@Kellyaust get busy on all those days! I've always been pregnant every 3 months after my miscarriages, and the opks were stronger, earlier, and longer compared to month 1/2 after MC. I'm sorry you went through MC, it is awful. Obviously it's not a guarantee, but opk being very strong has worked in my favour

We dtd weds and yesterday which were the first days of the blazing opks... I got another one first thing this morning but the 2nd one I've just done is lighter so do I dtd today too? We did it so much last month I said not again coz we were exhausted and it didn't even work...

Yes it took me by surprise coz it was 2 days earlier than usual and it's not gone on so long and strong before this one 🤞

I'm hoping for you that yours works out well I really am ❤️🤞

missmae · 11/08/2023 11:59

@HelloMoon87 yes it’s that one!😂there is so many 🤣

HelloMoon87 · 11/08/2023 11:55

OP posts:
missmae · 11/08/2023 11:52

@HelloMoon87 the ones I used are clear blue early response! Maybe try one?

missmae · 11/08/2023 11:51

@missmae thanks for sharing 💚 is that early clearblue or normal clearblue? If that makes sense.

Definitely looks redder and thicker, I wish us best of luck 🤞

@missmae yep that's where I got my frers as they're nowhere else. They are 10 pounds for 2, and since I had quite light ones in my chemicals that didn't get darker on frer, I got them to be able to compare. Yes do share lines x

OP posts:
missmae · 11/08/2023 11:45

@HelloMoon87 oh no really! Tbh my lines are the tiniest bit darker, I’ll upload pics. I haven’t done a frer as I can’t find them anywhere, only on Amazon? Is that where you got yours? According to my app I’d be 4 weeks today as well 🤔

@Janeykat i see it, it looks like the start of your bfp congrats! 🙏🏼

Doodlestar · 11/08/2023 11:01

@Janeykat I can see it, and pinkish colour 🤞 was it in the test time? do you have more tests to try again later/tomorrow too?

Kellyaust · 11/08/2023 10:47

Hi girls, congrats on all the bfps I hope they all go well for you 🤞

Quick question... If anyone can help. This is my 3rd OV since the mmc, it's the first time I've had blazing positive opk and I've had them for 3 days... Is that normal? They usually fade quite fast but not this time

Janeykat · 11/08/2023 10:19

Hi guys, so lovely to see so many bfps on this thread🥳😍 congratulations to you all!

I tested this morning at 9dpo fully expecting not to see anything as its very early and I have no pregnancy symptoms and....i think i see a line?! Its stronger than it appears in the photo and pinkish..... but maybe just seeing what I want to see

Feeling very emotional as I had a miscarriage in June and also a chemical on Februauary and havent even told my partner yet!

I'm still on high anxiety, but trying to keep it to myself, and not on this lovely board.
