Hello ladies.

I have been temping for yonks but I am new to fertility friend.

I think I have ovulated, but it hasn't put any lines in. Does it do this retrospectively some times? (I had my peak Mon- Tues and ewcm on Sunday.) Can we stop yet? ;)

Hi Mrs I don't think it puts your crosshairs in until 3 or 4dpo.

spinningirl10 · 26/02/2015 19:23

MrsG, yes it takes 3 or 4 days of raised temps for ff to put the crosshairs in confirming ov.

spinningirl10 · 26/02/2015 19:23

Go Sparkly, careful not to spill anyGrin

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 26/02/2015 19:24

mrs it might just need a few more days to be able to work it out.
eskimo have you done a hpt? Maybe you got first time lucky. Fx
1dpo here, since stopping bc I get a sore right boob after Ov lasts until AF rocks up.

Sparkly123 · 26/02/2015 19:42

Hi Dizzy how you doing? TWW going well?!

Spinning hi! No spillages Wink day 1 complete!!

Purdoo I think your dh sent some supersperm over here.. 3ml!

MrsG will take a couple more days. If your OPKs are neg now and no ewcm then you should be safe..!

auroraboringalis · 26/02/2015 19:45

Well here's a turnout for the books. Just did an opk which was (contain yourselves ladies) po.so.tive. Indeed. Would explain yesterday's avalanche of ewcm.
And that means that when ff so kindly told me I ovulated on cd10, and it now being cd23, it was spouting bollocks. Right? Hmm

I'm back everyone, after a quick trip to the vets because my greyhound has a limp and I immediately think cancer! (Can you tell I worry far too much). To be fair on me, I know a lot of people who have lost their greyhounds to the disease and the stats on it are awful, so my worry isn't unfounded.

Purdey, you think your doctor is a hunk, you should see my Italian vet! He is gorgeous!

Anyway, back to the topic. mummy thank you so much for your reply, and all the other 'stragglers'. In answer to your question, and chasing, I took a test yesterday. An IC at about 4 o'clock... there was NO line whatsoever, not even a sniff of one! We last DTD aaages ago, on Sunday 8th Feb, which would have been CD17. I have POAS on Tuesday 17th Feb (CD26), Friday 20th (CD29) and Sunday just gone (CD31). Should I do another now? I have a big bag of them sitting upstairs!

I suppose I'd best go and shave my legs as well then, if I'm going to ambush DH when he gets in...

Thank you for all your replies. I will have a read back now and catch up with everyone.

juneybean · 26/02/2015 19:47

Well done on no spillages sparkly

I've got a wicked headache today and am working til 10pm Boohoo.

I'll try and catch up later

chasingtherainbow · 26/02/2015 19:54

Eskimo. . I don't know what to suggest- perhaps keep opking and test on a preg stick in a day or so? Xx

Yay, it is starting to feel like home now the whole gang is here!

Eskimo, I would definitely be seducing dh tonight if I were you. Hopefully your cycle is normalising itself at last.

Aurora, put down the gin & pick up dh. Wink

Juney, hope you feel better soon.

eskimolaura · 26/02/2015 19:58

Thanks chasing With the Clearblue dual hormone OPKs, you get the peak smiley and it stays there for 2 days- you can't get rid of the blimmin' thing, and I haven't got any other OPKs in the house!

TheSortingCat · 26/02/2015 20:03

Having a shit day today - really Sad that instead of being pregnant and looking forward to my baby arriving, I am still faffing around with ttc.

And now I have oral thrush from my stupid inhaler and the doctor has put me on fluconazole and told me not to ttc this month because it can cause birth defects.

Argh! Angry Sad

CashmereCuddles · 26/02/2015 20:04

I stupidly bought a 30 pack of Internet hpt cheapies last month (£3 from Amazon).
I... Ehm... So, there were coughs two left... Huh?!? Blush
I wish I could be more restrained with my weeing.

chasingtherainbow · 26/02/2015 20:04

I've got the non dual one.. so no flashy. I'm not sure if it's worth the extra. . Everyone seems to find flashy faces stressful!

loopylou1984 · 26/02/2015 20:08

Ouchy, my tummy really hurts and af isn't due until Tuesday Hmm
Feels like she is going to turn up any minute...

mummyofonesofar · 26/02/2015 20:08

eskimo sod the opks, DTD and poas with FMU - none of this 4pm wee stuff.

hi sparkly 3ml is good! Well done for getting it up there nicely. Cd10 are you?

juney hope they sleep well so work is nice for you.

Feb bus had a posh nosh deck and a stuff-your-face-with-rubbish deck. No idea where I sit on this one as don't like gin (except on a weird camping trip I went on)

loopylou1984 · 26/02/2015 20:09

Purdey - that chocolate sounds amazing! X

Sparkly123 · 26/02/2015 20:10

Sorry about the headache Juney hope work is bearable! not long to go for you now!!

Eskimo confusing for you! Think you should dtd tonight then to be safe!! Wine here's an energy drink for ya!

Aurora emergency dtd yes! Go go go!!

Sparkly123 · 26/02/2015 20:15

Hiya ShirleyBirdie how goes it? Has that witch arrived?

mummy yep I'm cd 10. Usually do smep so would do 10,12 then 14,15,16,18 usually. However this cycle as on CB trial I have dual hormone test kit and it's saying flashy smiles today so high fertility so I imagine Tomor be the same. So I dunno whether to just go for it every day and forget smep or not! Mmm!!! Basically the decks are straight forward-- alpha bites OR quinoa. Easy. Mark your place girl...Wink

gennibugs · 26/02/2015 20:15

Wow it's got very busy on here! wonders how I will keep up

Sparkly123 · 26/02/2015 20:16

Sammy sorry for the pain. If she turns up earlier then means moving forward quicker this cycle! But let's still hold on to hope for you too!!! Flowers
