haha missv, I'm thinking that too. But then I'll probably wake up dying for a wee at 2am!!

LH1981 · 07/12/2013 19:12

Me too - or if I ovulated later in my cycle then I'm even less than that!

Polkadot1 · 07/12/2013 19:28

missV I don't think I did! coz I was pretty convinced when I did the test! and was D16PO- so just hold on another few days.....

lucyfluff · 07/12/2013 21:19

LH OmG!!! Good luck poas tmrw....please let us know how you get on! Infact I may even sacrifice my sunday lay in from DH to hear yours and missv 's news Grin

babyspice...oh good , glad Im not the only one Wink

ScienceGeekGirl · 08/12/2013 06:59

I know I never officially got on this bus but as I'd got on all 9 previous buses hope my ticket still counts. I got my sooooo long awaited BFP this morning!!!!! Two in fact! Can't quite believe it.

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 07:27

Oh science congratulations!!!! Such lovely news!!!! I'm about to poas again, let's hope it gets darker!!!!

DichotoMous · 08/12/2013 07:56

Congratulations science!!

Any news missv?

DuPanettoneDuVinDuFromage · 08/12/2013 08:00

Hello ladies! Congratulations to all the bfps!

As usual I have lurked all month and making my presence known now that AF is due...cd32 today and no sign of AF (although I am getting the odd twinge). Last month AF arrived on cd31 and was earlier for the two months before that so we shall see!

DH is away until Friday and I really want to wait until he is back to test - such a long time though!

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 08:22

Can you check my pic?? I've uploaded one can you see it??? It is much stronger than last night.

Aisha18 · 08/12/2013 08:25

Hi ladies, hope you are all feeling good this morning. Congratulations science!!Grin good luck to LH and MissV and DuPan..good luck on testing Smile

i was wondering if anyone can reassure me...im on CD 12 and waiting for iv, have been using the clearblue dual hormone ov tests with smiley faces. Last month high on days 11-12 peak on days 13-14 so I guess ov on day 13/14. This month cd 12 and still no flashing smiley to show high fertility. Is it normal to ov on different days each month? I have been having 27 day cycles last 2 months and before 26days.

Also my dh is away from tues eve for 5 nights so I'm a bit sad we will miss it, anyone got a BFP from dtd a few days in advance of ov?

Looking forward to seeing some more BFPs on here very soon Smile take care and have a lovely relaxing Sunday girls!

Aisha18 · 08/12/2013 08:25

Sorry for v long post!

LittleOwlie · 08/12/2013 08:31

Morning ladies!

Just popping on to check up on the BFPs...congratulations Science!

MissV - I can definitely see a line! Congratulations!! Xmas Grin

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 08:31

Aisha, I've had ovulation very different times every month, I use the dual clear blue test, got my positive later this month. And I always assume I ovulate 24-36 hrs after first solid smile x x

lucyfluff · 08/12/2013 08:33

Aisha - Im unsure if ov days can change (sorry!!) BUT it is definatly good to dtd prior to it, as the little spermiea can survive for up to five days so will be ready in wait for the egg. If you could jump DH before he leave that would be perfect Grin

Missv Im ob phone so can look at pics!!!!!! Is the line any darker??

Science Smile yay congratulations....symptoms please!!!!!

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 08:33

Oh owlie thank you. I am actually wondering whether it's a boy as I'm suffering with sickness already and I didn't with my daughter!!!
I still can't believe it's there!!! X x x

spinningirl10 · 08/12/2013 08:39

spinningirl10 · 08/12/2013 08:43

MissV.....have you worked out your due date, is it an August baby? Grin

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 08:48

Dtd cd 4,10,11,13,15,16,17,18,24

Had flashing smile on clear blue opk cd 13,14,15
Solid smile on cd 16,17

So assumed ovulation 24-36 hrs after.

Had lower abdominal pains from cd 13,14,15,16

On cd 18 had orangey pink cm after dtd

Cd 22,23 had lower pinching pains

The week af was due, I had a fuller feeling in lower stomach
Stronger bfp this morning 3 days after af was due

Missvaughan85 · 08/12/2013 08:50

Best Christmas present ever, just hoping it sticks well!!!
Calculated due date is 15th aug. You know I'm sticking around to see the new year in with you girls!!! X x x

spinningirl10 · 08/12/2013 08:53

Thanks for the detail MissV....you certainly managed to dtd a lotGrin

How long have you been using the cb fertility monitor for? They seem the best ones to use with having the flashing faces and fixed you really know when ov is approaching!! Do you just use it once a day?

Aisha18 · 08/12/2013 08:54

Yay congratulations MissV that's amazingSmileSmileSmile v happy for you!
Thanks for the reassurance too, you girls are such a nice support as you can't really talk to many people about this stuff and dh thinks I'm a bit crazy if I talk about it as much as I think about it!

ThisIsMeNow · 08/12/2013 08:57

Science! Yay! Massive congrats! ThanksGrin excellent news!

Missv, that's definately a line! Yippee!! Thanks

There's still no sign of Af here but as I only have a £££ digi here I'm refusing to test again! would like to wait until Friday but not sure if I can! We'll see.

laravh · 08/12/2013 08:58

Woohoo!! Great news MissV and Science!! Love hearing OG BFPs, makes it feel possible when it's seemed so impossible! Congratulations!! Grin

LittleOwlie · 08/12/2013 09:00

Ooh Spinning, I was going to ask the same thing re: CBFM. My DP was going to buy one for me yesterday. But I said to at least wait til we were sure about this cycle.

I was wondering what the ladies using the CBFM thought of it...? Worth getting one? I have pretty regular cycles and get OV pain. But I thought checking my hormone levels and confirming OV day might be good, esp as I'm old and for all I know I might not be OVing every month.
