This is my first month off the pill so not sure when af is due :(

MrsB2013 · 22/08/2013 17:44

Vjones im the same, first month off pill, but im guessing bfp/af due on 26th going on a 28 day cycle

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 17:47

Same here. A 28 day cycle would be Sep 3rd for af/bfp. I had positive opk on cd17, 18 and 19 so I'm assuming I ovulated on cd19.

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 18:16

Does anyone know if it's possible that I actually ov on day 1 or 2 of my positive opks? Or is it more likely to have been day 3 (the last day)? Thanks.

layla1976 · 22/08/2013 18:22

my AF is due on 30/31st Aug, my cycles are always 27/28 days .like clock work... i'm dreading it...lol... today i've been laid up in bed all day with a cracking head and my UTI... feel like poo!!! ....if only it was sore breasts, cramps/spotting etc then i'd welcome those symptoms!!! hahaha....however the way i'm feeling has nothing to do with pregnancy at all, just plain and simple unwell...Sad.... still one can dream ... we should be expecting AF or hopefully in your cases BFP's, around about the same time. spread over a week .... fingers, toes, and anything else i can possibly cross!!!...are any of you doing anything exciting at the weekend??? at least the weekends go quick so time will fly Grin

layla1976 · 22/08/2013 18:23

vjones ..its anytime from when you get that positive opk - 12-36 hours later

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 18:25

Layla - even though I got positives for the following two days?

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 18:27

Sorry you're unwell, Layla. Am having my nails done tomorrow and taking a friend out for lunch. Saturday am buying a new dress for when I become a spiritual guide for a friend's baby (she's doing a pagan naming ceremony) and Sunday am at a bbq.

ThreeFromDesire · 22/08/2013 19:05

New on conception but not on mn. Hello! I'm 2dpo today I think and symptom spotting as per!! Relaxed a bit about ttc this month (smashed up the cb opk lol) and didn't do much around ov but loads of sticks ready and waiting to be peed on so why not Grin

Who is testing next ?

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 19:10

Not me yet :(

wispaxmas · 22/08/2013 19:54

I've not posted on this thread before, but I tried a cheeky sneak peek and bfn, but shouldn't really be testing until Tuesday.

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 20:02

Yeah, guess that's a bit early, wispa! I'm hoping to test next weekend. Hot positive opks three days in a row - does anyone know whether I could have ov on any of those days or whether it was likely to be the last one only?

ThreeFromDesire · 22/08/2013 20:21

Erm, feeling a bit dumb but I just entered my lmp into a fertility app and I think (if my period is due between the 30th august and 2nd sept) I'm actually 4-6dpo not 2dpo ish as ff said.

I've no patience so I'm totally aiming for initial poas date being the 26th. I have 25 cheapies so going to pee to my hearts content Grin

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 20:23

Oh, that's good! Wish I knew when I ov... I must be between 2 and 4 dpo,I guess. Think I might gey some of those cheapo tests too!

ThreeFromDesire · 22/08/2013 20:28

I'm going to shamelessly encourage you jonesy Smile

clicky

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 20:31

Argh! Okay, pay day tomorrow so I'll order some. Done. Didn't take much, did it...

So when are you gonna poas?

wispaxmas · 22/08/2013 20:37

Sorry VJones, I know absolutely nothing about opks, even took me ages to figure out what it meant!

bushprincess · 22/08/2013 20:52

Hi Three looks like you me and VJones are all 2dpo so will be poas in unison - fun times (haha!)

Hi there wispa sorry about the bfn but early so fx... good luck with the wait!

sorry about feeling under the weather layla hope you feel better soon..

vjones sorry you're not getting a straight answer... but that is really because there isn't one. Your LH surge should last

bushprincess · 22/08/2013 20:59

sorry DTD before the 36hr window! opps!

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 21:28

Bush - thank you so much for your thorough response. We dtd every day from cd14-20 and my positive opk was cd17-19 inclusive. I guess I should have stopped testing but no one had told me that before. So I'm guessing that I ov on cd18 or 19.

Writerwannabe83 · 22/08/2013 21:33

What will be will be now VJones - there is no point second guessing when you did or didn't ovulate and getting yourself wound up over it. Just stay calm and be excited about being in the 2ww Grin

GnomieGrace · 22/08/2013 21:34

Hi everyone, I'm finally into my 2ww I'm 5DPO, I had twinges and increased discharge but no EWCM this month, but by chance DTD the day before and day after! So fingers crossed. I started with heartburn 2DPO which has been on and off for the past 3 days and then some very light spotting today! Going crazy with the symptom spotting AF due 2nd Sept I purchased a First Response test this month as I heard they're quite accurate if I can't hold out till the 2nd!

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 21:38

Writer - I don't find it exciting, I find it horrible!! Ha ha!

Gnomie - if you're 5dpo, 14 days after ov will be next Saturday

Writerwannabe83 · 22/08/2013 21:43

Vjones - just do what I did which was obsessively POAS (2/3 times a day) from as early as 7dpo Grin.

That made it pretty exciting Grin

VJONES1985 · 22/08/2013 21:45

Oh, sounds like a good idea. But it'd be heartbreaking if I ended up getting af x
