Anybody else in the same boat?? I'm 5dpo and I've had an ache on my right side through yesterday evening and all today It's not painful but can't ignore it 🤣 Wondering if anyone has similar or is waiting like me 😊

@chamena you could still be in on this cycle. I just keep telling myself you don’t know if you’re out until AF comes 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 sending baby dust to all of you this cycle. I think we are going to DTD again tonight, as according to my app if I did test positive for the first time on my ovulation test yesterday then today and tomorrow will be my last fertile days 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 At this point I am starting to think it is luck 🤣🤣

JM1997 · 29/04/2024 11:28

@GSD2024 just think if it happened this cycle you won’t then be in hospital over Christmas, and then you can enjoy being pregnant at Christmas! I have to keep thinking of positives if it doesn’t happen that cycle. You’ve got this 👏🏻👏🏻

@Hannah4850 I am so glad you had a fantastic time in Dublin! Apologies for the slow response to the feed we went away to rhe Cotswolds at the weekend with my parents! I would say that it looks like you’ve ovulated on CD11 especially as you’ve been getting aches and pain. I think I thought I ovulated too early as yesterday I did an ovulation test and straight away two lines came up whereas when I thought I’d ovulated it took a while for the two lines to come up upon reflection, we ended up DTD last night as well so hopefully we have given ourselves the best possible chance. When did you DTD as I read somewhere that sperm can be in the body up to 48 hours😊

Hiya girlies!!
Dublin was great didn't want to be back in the office this morning haha 😅
I also need some help I think I've ovulated early again 🤔😫
I've got 3 tests
Top (cd 11)
Middle (cd 12)
Bottom (cd 13) - today

I think it's darkest on cd11 and he's been getting lighter since but I'm not sure it's even a full positive on cd11??
Could I have ovulated while away on cd 11 do you think?? I've had awful aches and pains since Saturday afternoon 💖

Ahh @Hannah4850 i hope you had a lovely time.

@chamena thanks, that’s what I thought, so I’m now 1DPO. Let the wait begin!! How are you feeling? Xx

We only managed to dtd the day of my smiley Clearblue, day before my strongest peak on easy@homes. Probably out for this month but at least we managed once in my window.

with ovulation days and opks - my understanding is that the Clearblues tend to show your ‘peak’ a day or so earlier than the read yourself cheaper strips. So I tend to think of ovulation day as 2 days after my static smiley on a Clearblue, one day after a strong positive strip opk. @GSD2024 I would think your ovulation day was CD16 looking at your tests.

Hope your trip was fun @Hannah4850 !

@Hannah4850 @JM1997 @chamena how are you all? Hannah, how’s your weekend away?

so I definitely peaked on the OPK’s yesterday, we DTD last night. I know ovulation can take place 24-48 hours after peak, so when do I start counting the DPO days from?

Heya!
We got back home at 5am this morning haha I drank WAY too much and feel a bit fuzzy but we DTD yesterday and I had a darker opk so I'm hoping today/tomorrow will be full positive but I only got to test yesterday first thing
I count the dpo from the day of my darkest opk personally, how are you feeling??💖

Omg yay!! Get DTD!! So excited for you!

Darkest I’ve seen so far

GSD2024 · 27/04/2024 08:47

I’m not sure, we are going to DTD tonight and then that will likely be it. How about you? I think I missed my ovulation last month, which I’m sad about as would have loved a December baby!!

chamena · 27/04/2024 08:44

@GSD2024 yay! Do you reckon you’ll ovulate today or tomorrow? My tests are even darker this morning so I’m wondering if tomorrow is ovulation for me

GSD2024 · 27/04/2024 07:07

@chamena wahoo! Same 🙂 I had a lot of CM yesterday, and I mean A LOT!!

chamena · 26/04/2024 23:55

Definitely positive opks now!

Hi ladies, just catching up. How are you all?

I’ve got a lot of cramps today, and this is my ovulation test. I can’t DTD tonight as DH is out 😭 so I guess I will have to hope tomorrow is not too late x

Edited

I'm good I've had bad aches and cramps and backache since yesterday afternoon, we DTD today and it's not dark at all so hopefully will get darker each day! 🤞🏻
Off to Dublin tomorrow so that should keep us distracted

Breastfeeding has stopped my periods/ ovulation gorv17 months both times.

I’ve had a peak / static smiley on Clearblue this morning and line darkening (but not positive) on the easy @ home strips so think I will ovulate tomorrow or Sunday - a few days early like I thought I might. Will try and dtd this evening and tomorrow

Ooh exciting! Then you'll be in the 2ww and symptom spotting!🤣

@Hannah4850 fingers crossed it is a good sign! I’ve such awful cramps on my left hand side and it hurts when I cough 😢😢 Something feels odd with my body!! How are your evenings?? I’m just waiting for my partner to get home!

Yours could be ovulation pains?!
I've had a weird day I've not been too well today I've been dizzy and anxious all day don't know why 🤔

that will defo have an effect! Fingers crossed they look darker tomorrow.

I’m CD 11 and negative opks but definitely getting ewcm now and tests looking like they are starting to get a little darker. Still worried I won’t ovulate with my little one feeding for hours day and night now through. Keeping my fingers crossed my hormones prevail!

I held for 4 hours no urine and for a faint shadow line, improvement and I've had ewcm with cramps all evening so hopefully a good sign!
Does BF stop ovulation then?? I thought it made you extra fertile?? 😅💖

Have you been holding urine for 4 hours and limiting liquids? My results fluctuate wildly according to how concentrated my sample is. It’s so tricky.

Hmm no I have been drinking a lot I'm a tea addict and my urine has been clear today 🫣
