Pull up a chair for the 2ww...

[Tea1Sugar]

Anyone care to join me for this interminable length of waiting time?! I'm only 1 dpo!

Tea - by the way, how do you know you didn't ov in the first month?

I'm just assuming I'm in here, as not temping etc. 21 day cycle means I'll be here more often than not anyway. Lol.

How's everyone getting on? Did we come up with a game?

In my 2ww I ate an Apple....

Well I'm not certain but I don't think so. My lh surge only lasted about 10-12 hours so doubtful. But my period came back on cd25 which I was pleased with. It meant I had a normal range cycle and knew where I stood.

Yeah, I guess that's a good thing! Have had positive opk for three days now so fingers crossed.

Negative today aswell sorry u r too had 2 days faint line on opk sun and mon morn but last night and this morn no line can't really see is it possible to ovul day 9 and if so the ovul didn't go same colour

Gutted missed it again always catches me off guard x

Vjones1985 may I ask what type of OPK you are using? I think I missed that?

I bought the cheapie Wondfo OPKS (40 strips) and I am planning on giving the SMEP Method a shot this cycle.

Most curious about when to POAS for the OPKs. I Googled and lots of people are saying between 2PM and 8Pm is best. Have you found this true?

Thanks.

Vjones What pill were you on? Relax, i was like you when i first started ttc and i was stressing out over the silliest things and googling... Never google! If you have a question no matter how sillytalk to us! 9.9 times out of 10, we have all down it, had it , thought it :) Have you joined the auguest bus yet?

Keden Best time (was on the instructions i had) was between 8am - 10pm it said. And make sure your wee wee is cooled down. You can get evap lines.

My spelling in that was awful. I do apologise lol x

I got cheap ones from amazon this month from life improve studio doesn't say a time and can't do at work so I do one in morn and one in evening about 9 ish when back from work. Maybe those where evap lines as was doing it straight away

Had a faint line again yday eve so hopefully its coming still my moods are so dependent on all this need to loosen up and remember dtd ing is the most important ingredient even tho ATM he's doing my fricking head in !

Xx

Keden - been using cheap strips from Amazon, they just produce a dark line if positive. I used then in the afternoon for a while then switched to 11am and that was when I got the positive readings.

jelly - thank you for being so kind. I don't want to piss people off when I have so many silly worries. Anyway, I was on Ovranette for 12 years and had signs of ov for the last three days.

Thanks JellyBean and VJones1985!

I didn't realise you actually had to let the pee cool down é

Yeah sounding more like something I'll just do in the evenings. Don't want to fuss about with pee cups and what not at work. Thanks all.

Next month I will have to only do it in the evenings because I'll be back at work so hopefully I'll still get good readings then. Am considering giving up opks next month though as I had physical signs of ov so could just use them.

Keden a lot of people don't know. Just saves you getting a false positive with a evap line x

right i'm pulling up a chair on the dreaded 2ww ..... goodluck girls ...i'm 5 days past ov... and have imaginary symptoms etc...but its always a big fat no ...hopefully lots of BFP's for everyone this month!!! GOODLUCK!!!!!!

Hi Layla. I'm 1dpo so obviously no symptoms for me. Thinking of testing next Saturday but I know I should wait a bit longer. Argh!

i never seem to get ewcm..so have used special fertility lube that mimics it this month but i now have a uti so feel like crap...think i'm out this month too ....5dpo and counting...having tests on friday though to see if ov actually does take place or not...i'm 37 so need all the help i can get!!!....goodluck ladies and keep me posted...baby dust to you all....xxx

Layla why has your doctor decided to give you that test? Have you been ttc for a certain length of time?

Vjones1985... i know its hard but its always best to wait... i got a positive test a few years ago then a few days later it was negative...something called a chemical/spontaneous abortion or something...apparently it happens to 1 in a very small number of pregnancys , they just dont take..i would have just thought my period was late but instead i felt a huge loss...so wait if you can....goodluck though...try to keep busy....xxxx

Ah right. So it was a few years ago but you're only having the test now? Good luck to you.

I am finding it hard to stay busy because I'm a teacher and so currently off work, but I know you're right!!

Ha ha,thanks! I came off the pill two weeks ago and am now on cd20, just hoping that I'm ovulating and that everything's normal! Hope it goes well for you on Friday.

Hello :) well I think I might have ovulated although if I have it was very soon after AF. This is my first proper cycle after coming off the pill so all very new. We have been dtd every day! Hope this is ok although it's pretty much what we had been doing before ttc anyway tmi!! Xx

Hiya! What signs did you have to make you think you ovulated? I think I ov yesterday so am now in the dreaded 2ww!

Just the ewcm for 3 or 4 days and now that's stopped. Who knows though!
