Thanks Any idea how I do that? I just copied and pasted them - expected them to turn into links, but apparently they didn't fancy doing that . Trots off to find MN instructions

Finally!! Good lord, I'm not the smartest cookie Thanks for your patience and apologies for monopolising the thread with my terrible attempts!

ovufriend.com/graph/ff00539b5c2d529d759f314731964a63 should be the Ovufriend one, though obv they look pretty similar

I'm no help raraz, I don't understand charting!

Still a fainter line on my ov test, and doing my head in now! I'm on cd14, last month it was positive on cd16 but only had a 9 day LP after that so was hoping I'd ov earlier this month if the same cycle length. I only had a darker line for 12 hours before it turned positive last month, so this is dragging a bit!

Hi choccy - are you on b6 or anything else for your lp? You were on the pill, right?

Right now, neither do I! If I didn't work shifts and actually got up at vaguely the same time through the week, it might be a damn sight easier! This is so difficult, isn't it . With yours, maybe you'll just have a longer cycle: ovulate later, but have a longer LP too? Is a 9-day LP normal for you?

Supposedly they don't vary more than one day for the same woman, but mine are usually 14-15 days and the last one was only 11, so clearly that's not entirely true

I'm only on cycle 2 so I'm not sure what's the norm for me raraz. Last time I had a 35 day, then 28 day cycle, then fell pg with ds and found out finally on cd40, so it was all over the place.

Yes, was on the pill vjones, this time and last time. Yasmin last time, microgynon this time

No b6 either, just straight folic acid

Raraz - looking at those I think it is right and you ovulated on cd17. The dip after could be implantation, or it could just be your pattern (I get this pattern but have not yet been pregnant). Have you only discarded the temps taken at a if different time? Or the ones that "look" weird?

If its the former, thenI think it loos good! FX October is your month!

also, I just read that dtd on four or three days before ov gives you higher chances of conceiving than dtd on ov day. So fingers crossed, Ive still got a (small) chance. Though obviously it is low given we only dtd once around ovulation.

My friend, Ive decided, is a way of proving to me that it only takes one time! So I must take the positive from her story!

Looks like ff is right to me. In fact I've always found them to be annoyingly right even when I wish otherwise.

Ok need help ladies not meant to opk this month (hubby and I agreed). Anyway peed on one earlier and positive so really need to DTD but hubby not in mood. 'Wants to read'. Any advice or experience on how to change his mind without mentioning secret opk-ing?

Thanks Jaykay and ScienceGeek - much appreciated. Jaykay: bit of both. They looked way out, but were also taken at funny times. On the 18th and 19th (CD 12 and 13), my temps were taken late and after not much sleep (1815 and 1415) due to night shifts, and the one the other night (presumably the dip you referred to?) was taken after a night when I had only five hours in bed and took ages to get to sleep due to a headache and then kept waking up. Do they sound like reasonable reasons? Unless I've forgotten to chart any, we only had sex the day of ovulation (assuming the chart is right on that) and the day before, and then it was three days before that. Eeek.

Just updating stats now AF is in full flow, the witch was 2 days early!!! WTF?!
Gonna leave these boards for a bit now as ttc seems to be taking over my life! 8 months and counting is doing my head in now!
Hopefully someone will keep the stats updated
Good luck all

Sciencegeek: How easily turned on is your husband? I tend to find my bf will easily 'come round' if touched, cuddled, kissed, straddled, told he's handsome, if I'm obviously very up for it, if I sit on his knee in my underwear etc.... Can you try that?

Sorry to hear that Kemie . My AF was 4/5 days early last month. Not fair, is it.

Science, burn his frikkin book . No seriously, can you go get dressed up in some sexy lingerie, and put him in the mood?

Hello all, i'm afraid i haven't caught up on the last 8 or so pages.....

Well, round 4 for me. Am 36 now so really hopibg to crack on this month.

Said to totally clueless DH earlier 'anyway, we need to have a chat' he replied 'are you preggers' errrr, no.....(he earlier made reference to it being ladies week....)

So... 'errr no, just had a period' him 'well i don't know how it works!!'

Dear god. Is there any hope? So the conversation went on....

'I think my knob isn't working'
Me....'what?!?'

DH 'well i've been banging it in hard enough!' (so sorry tmi...)

Me 'well not often enough!!'

So the plan to prove his knob works... is to dtd often enough!

And maybe give him a biology lesson...

Hello everyone,

AF finally finished, so can get on and start dtd now - hooray! Cycle 2 for me; kind of (optimistically) thought I would conceive last month, was at a wedding yesterday and was thinking previously that (if i was pg) I wouldn't have been able to drink. Well, certainly made up for the fact that I would be ok drinking! Bit fragile today!

I haven't used the opk things - I'm going to try again to not use them this month as think otherwise I would be totally consumed by the whole ttc thing - even more than I already am!

Not due til 27th Oct so will be here a while... Hope everyone has a successful month

Nottalotta lmao! Hope his errr knob works soon ha ha!

Anyone else using one step ov tests (Internet cheapies)? I've now totally run out of my others, but out of interest did one of each at the same time. No second line on the one step, but on my other one I had a very clear dark, but not quite positive second line.

choccy honestly. I despair.

Not used opk's yet. On C4 and will give it anpther couple of months. Think i may ov earlier than my app suggests. I have a short 25 day cycle so thinking to dtd every other days from CD 5 - 15. That should cover it?

notta lol your dh sounds like my dp. He managed to reach his 30s still believing that every time you had unprotected sex you would get pregnant!

Just a quick update, perhaps over sharing but turns out a sexy outfit does work to make DH put down his book lol yay!

Ha ha Science - made me smile! I think that works for all men, good book or not!! Well done!
