Are you using cb mac?

I only used cheapies so maybe you had to do twice a day as they weren't as sensitive? I would think cb are ok to do once a day, I don't see how anyone could afford to do them twice a day! Grin Good luck!

Ducky23 · 13/05/2014 11:02

I mean poppet! Grin

macmissy · 13/05/2014 11:11

No honey, some from Amazon

Cupcake92 · 13/05/2014 11:33

Why do children not sleep? Why oh why!

kitkatkaty87 · 13/05/2014 11:57

Hey girls, yeah def af :s forgotten how rubbish periods are! Although I have had no pain at all so far! So that's good!
Fingers crossed for you cupcake that sounds really promising.
how long does af usually last?! I've had enough already.
I'm off work today got an awful throat, think it's infected :s

Aww sorry kitkat Hmm AF varies, I was only usually on for 3 days but some people can be on for 5ish.

Really hope next month is your month.

Cupcake92 · 13/05/2014 12:01

Sorry to hear that Kitkat :( n I hope ur throat feels better soon! My AF only lasted 3 days, but it was so heavy I thought it'd be going a least a week, but it just suddenly stopped. N that's me just coming off birth control too. So hopefully urs will stop soon n u can get dtd again!

Ducky23 · 13/05/2014 12:01

Lulu did you work out your due date? And have you contacted your gp yet?

macmissy · 13/05/2014 12:10

I have had the same thing KitKat there is definitely something going round!

It's all about June doll :) (in my head anyway!)

I was hoping May would be our month, fella has a new job offer so I thought it might come in 3's - alas, it's all about June (which is also my birthday & our holiday so that's what I am gunning for!)

MrsPopple29 · 13/05/2014 13:01

With the cb obv tests the instructions say you should do them first thing in the morning, I wonder why it's different! Fits in with the 'no drinking for 4 hours beforehand' rule though I guess...

poppet85 · 13/05/2014 13:30

Ive boots own ,I dont think I could cope testing twice a day , wait 4 hours ? Drink/dont drink ? Too confusing for me !! My af is about 3 days now was a full 5 on the pill !

Greeneyes5 · 13/05/2014 14:03

I definitely need to get some opks! It's too hard to guess the best time!

Me624 · 13/05/2014 14:28

I have never been so impatient about anything in my life!!! I just want AF to arrive so I know where I am! CD 34 today and no sign of it, so based on a 29-32 day cycle I am 2-5 days late. no symptoms of anything at all (but then I never did get any symptoms of AF so that doesn't mean anything.)

I can't concentrate at work for thinking about it! Heaven help me if it takes months and months.

Cupcake92 · 13/05/2014 14:44

Ok so...... I got my ov date completely wrong!
I kept doing my opks and they got lighter then started getting dark and today it's waaaay darker than the control line! Which before it wasn't. So I'm almost certain today must be my ov day. It has to be ive had ewcm today an all!
Grrrrr!!! I'm so angry with myself!! We never dtd last night either :( we did it 2 days in a row before last night so I'm gonna make DH dtd tonight and tomorrow! Can't believe I got those stupid opks wrong :( tww all over again!

macmissy · 13/05/2014 14:45

Me I would be going absolutely potty! I'm the same, ridiculously impatient.

Cupcake92 · 13/05/2014 14:46

Everyone see the comparison on the pic?

April ttc girls continued for may!
Ducky23 · 13/05/2014 15:01

Aww cupcake at least you haven't missed it!!!

I'm worried I just had a very bad fall on a tiled floor Hmm I landed on my knees but have hurt my back quite badly Confused really hope everything is ok still Hmm

Cupcake92 · 13/05/2014 15:10

Just so annoyed at myself! Well at least next cycle I know exactly what to look for :) n I have dtd a lot so I'm not out.

Don't worry Ducky I'm sure everything's alright. If u feel a little unsure give ur midwife a call and get some reassurance :) they are there for absolutely any problem u have.

poppet85 · 13/05/2014 16:11

Cupcake you'll be fine !I thought after a positive you ovulate within the next 48 hours? Perfect timing !Me sure your not pregnant ?!

Me624 · 13/05/2014 16:49

Poppet I got a bfn on Sunday night and trying to hold off a week before I test again because I found the bfn so disappointing! I will probably cave before then though, but I'm going to try at least!

Ducky hope you're feeling ok after your fall - it's such early days that I'm sure you won't have done any harm at all.

Me624 · 13/05/2014 16:55

Oh boo - I just found a note on my phone I used to track my cycles when I had a break from the pill about 2.5 years ago. The cycles were:

22 days, 31 days, 36 days, 33 days, 32 days, 40 days (remember this one now as I was terrified I was pregnant - oh how things have changed), 37 days!!! All over the place and some long cycles in there too. Having read that I'm pretty sure I'm just waiting for AF to arrive. What a pain trying to predict ov will be if they continue to be like that.

poppet85 · 13/05/2014 17:00

Ah I am with you now Me624 sorry difficult to keep up sometimes ! What cycle day are you ? Eveyday with no af is a good sign keep positive and busy this week !!

Me624 · 13/05/2014 17:09

CD34 today, so could still be another 3-6 days before AF if it's going to go anything like it did 2 years ago! But you're right I should stay positive until it arrives there's always a chance!

poppet85 · 13/05/2014 17:44

Oh god I'd be going mad Me poor you !! Fx cross AF never shows up but if she does Fx she starts to follow a pattern !!

Ducky23 · 13/05/2014 18:35

Really hope AF stays away me!! Smile
