Af has finally arrived, feeling relieved because had given up hoping for preg this month, now can look forward to entering the interesting world of opk Hmm, how is everyone?

1Strawberry · 07/01/2015 09:15

Helen how long do you have to wait to test?..

MrsG23 · 07/01/2015 11:52

My bloods also show this morning that I'm not pregnant... So my body is just playing Jedi mind tricks on me again! :( but glad to know what is happening! Glad you got your answer strawberry - sad it wasn't the one you wanted though :(

Emma321q · 07/01/2015 18:28

AF also arrived for me this morning so another month goes by....
At least now christmas is over I can eat a bit healthier, cut out the alcohol and dtd even more often. We are going to aim for every other day from next week.

Hey girls,

Bfn today at 11dpo so think it's game over. Disappointed but actually more concerned that I had myself convinced. Last cycle was 33 days long so hopefully period will arrive a bit sooner.

1straw which opks are you thinking of using. Sorry mrsg23 and Emma Fingers crossed for next cycle x

Emma321q · 07/01/2015 19:16

Hi Tweej

Sorry to hear that. I know exactly what you mean about convincing yourself that you have all the symptoms of a BFP. I must do that daily!

Here's to next month...

Tweej · 07/01/2015 19:45

Exactly.

Roll on af now. Every other day is ambitious but a good plan. Keep us updated, do you use opks? Think we will try the sperm meets egg plan again although it was tiring x

helensburgh · 07/01/2015 20:09

Thanks for the welcome!

Period is due 19th ish.

I got a smiley static face on the clear blue ovulation test on the 2nd jan.

I'm not imagining all sorts of symptoms!!

What is opk?

helensburgh · 07/01/2015 20:09

What's the sperm meets egg plan?

Tweej · 08/01/2015 17:07

Opk is an ovulation predictor kit x

1Strawberry · 08/01/2015 17:26

Sorry to hear that mrs g :(, here's to next month! Emma we're cycle twins this month then..! How long is your cycle usually? mine is normally 28days..

Tweej I'm using internet cheapie opk, my friend used them successfully a couple of months ago and gave me the rest of her pack of 50.

This might sound crazy but I'm actually enjoying my visit from af, so nice not to have to wonder and obsess! Have to find a way to maintain that tranquility the rest of the month!

1Strawberry · 08/01/2015 17:30

Ps tweej it's not over yet at 11dpo! Or did you crack and test again today?

Emma321q · 10/01/2015 08:17

It's normally 30 or 31 days 1 strawberry.

Now I'm over the disappointment of AF's arrival I'm now excited to start trying again. Any tips to keep sane and to make this month the most effective so far?

cherrypez · 10/01/2015 18:48

Hi ladies, you guys seem to be experts on preg tests...if a Clearblue says you are 3 weeks +, does that mean by MW dates you would be at least 5 weeks? Does clearblue mean that you conceived 1-2 weeks ago etc? As the earliest I thought a pg could be dated was 4 weeks, 2 weeks from date of last AF. Or did I make that up? Grin

1Strawberry · 10/01/2015 21:10

Emma how many cycles have you been ttc? This is my 4th now..

As for tips on

1Strawberry · 10/01/2015 21:12

Woops! Posted too soon! This site is a nightmare on my phone!

As for tips on staying sane, I need some too, I'm getting more crazily obsessed every month!

1Strawberry · 10/01/2015 21:14

Cherry I don't know about clear blue but yes 4 weeks preg would be dated from last af so yes I think you're prob 5 weeks preg.

cherrypez · 10/01/2015 21:16

Thanks strawberry it's been a while since I last saw a BFP.

Tweej · 11/01/2015 17:38

So I'm definitely out. AF arrived today. Relieved in a way cause now I can focus on the next cycle. Bought more opks today. I had myself convinced I was pg so no more symptom spotting. Any symptom i have had is clearly a symptom my Af is coming so that's it I'm now gonna wish for a symptom free cycle.

How's everyone else doing x

1Strawberry · 12/01/2015 11:15

Aw sorry about that tweej :( but yes, af is def less torturous than the last few days of a 2ww. I'm due to start using opk on fri, so looking forward to trying that!

Tweej · 12/01/2015 16:32

Best of luck 1strawberry hopeful this will be your cycle. Gonna use opks and bd lots in the fertile window. What's your plan x

1Strawberry · 14/01/2015 14:08

Hope this will be your month too tweej, think I'll be using the same tactics as you... But what does bd stand for?

Tweej · 14/01/2015 17:04

Baby Dance ha ha lots of baby making coming up fingers crossed x

8DPO DTD on O-2 and O day, desperately trying not to symptom spot, but going slowly round the twist Blush

McRem · 18/01/2015 20:49

I just came off the pill at the end of December.. But according to opks I think I'm in the two week wait now! First month off the pill, so not expecting to be lucky, but still nervous/excited! Just looking for some advice about symptoms to look out for in the mean time etc! First time tv and just keeping it a secret from friends and family, which is lovely as its our own little secret, but Iv got no women to talk to and ask questions! Thank goodness for this place WinkWink
