nicola I am more tempted to test with the really cheap tests from amazon!

How many days after ov can pg show up on a test?

If ov sticks are +ve, does that mean ov hasn't happened yet? Or can it mean that it's already happened? Im quite confused Confused

DulcetMoans · 07/08/2012 10:15

I'm not an expert on ov sticks woody but I think a + on a ov stick means you you are about to ov in the next 12-24 hours. (sure someone will correct me if I am wrong) I think it is generally agreed that it isn't worth testing until at least 10dpo.

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 12:33

Ooh...my tests have dispatched. Speedy!!

Yeah, 10 DPO is the earliest really.

Have to last til Friday now. :-)

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 12:58

Ohhh mine are saying they wont arrive until 15th :(

Wow I'm jelous, I might order some sticks to. I paid £26 for my cbfm sticks on Sunday so I'm pretty glad it has stopped asking me to test to.

This is expensive work ladies,

Nicola, if we are coordinating cycles that would be really cool :)

woody17 · 07/08/2012 13:42

Thanks dulcet

roxy I shudder to think about how much I must have spent on pg tests since June and how many pairs of shoes I could have bought instead

Roxyjade · 07/08/2012 14:00

Hey woody

Yeah or how many bottles of wine, lol x

woody17 · 07/08/2012 14:06

i am going to try and resist poas until next Saturday at the earliest (and that will be early anyway!)

DulcetMoans · 07/08/2012 14:12

I think my 10dpo date will be next Tuesday so thats when the temptation will start for me!

woody17 · 07/08/2012 14:15

I actually can't add! My 2ww wait starts on Thursday (I think) so for me, 10dpo will be next Sunday. So I will wait and test then... Although I may end up being tempted to test earlier with my cheap amazon ones!

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 14:31

Yeah...I'm 10 DPO today. Hence cracking!

More CM today...but don't feel anything rose now. Ho hum!

33andTTC · 07/08/2012 14:35

it's been 2 weeks 2 days since coming off Cerazette Mini Pill and no AF yet. I believe (from cm signs) that I ovulated 6 days ago. Have done the deed a couple of times around then. When can expect AF or (hopefully) BFP?

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 14:36

Else, not rose!

woody17 · 07/08/2012 14:36

I think that af is possibly due about 2 weeks after ov but to be honest I don't really know.

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 14:45

Roses!! Hah hah Well I've been really good and not cracked at all because everyone knows 8DPO is not worth cracking for! Yeah everyone knows Blush

OP posts:
DulcetMoans · 07/08/2012 14:53

Yeah, safest to count 14 days after ovulation for AF due date.

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 14:56

Wish I'd given my CB stick to DH to hide :( I blame Nicola

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 14:59

Nothing to do with me...at least I'm 10 DPO!

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 16:00

True :)

OP posts:
DulcetMoans · 07/08/2012 16:04

Does that mean you cracked newbie...?

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 16:27

Dulcet no not yet. Came really really close but then ran to loo so that it wasn't possible! I really need to save the expensive sticks to last! I have also brought some cheapies so hopefully they arrive in time for Friday and then I can POAS 25x if I want Grin

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 16:36

Me and you both, Newbie...lots of POAS between us!

Lolcbcb · 07/08/2012 17:44

Are u two resisting poas tomorrow?

MumOfTwoCats · 07/08/2012 17:45

I must admit i cracked this morning and got a bfn. Cd 26 of a 30/31 normal cycle.

Testing Saturday now as that is when .af is due. I have a sainsbury and a cb digi . Plus 3 cb digi from the trial although i''ve not started that yet.

Going to call them on Friday as we want to go abroad in Sept during cycle 2 of the trial so if I'm not pg by then i don't want to be messing around with Pee pots! Going to ask them if I can start when i'm back.

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 17:57

I have no cheap tests at home, so won't be testing til I do...maybe Friday, 13 DPO. AF due Sat, I think.

Feeling really 'heavy' internally with a few stabby pains around the ovaries. Really don't want a less than 26 day cycle...verging on too short if my body starts doing that :-/

A friend at work lost her baby at 19.5 weeks yesterday. She had had 7 miscarriages before, but never got beyond 7-8 weeks. We all thought this was a sticky one :-( Puts my efforts into perspective. I can't imagine to think what she's going through.
