Positive OPK today need a buddy 38-40s

[FlourishingMrs]

Hi I am nearly 40, positive opk today,need a TWW buddy

Gosh, I had no idea that sort of thing existed! Will look into it, thank you Bec.

Flourishing are you still on your island paradise?

wow xx that's agreat find,yes not Really still out here, DP and I have a date at 4pm daily so really going for it. In True POAS addict fashion I found a pharmacy a few miles away they had two packets of OPK called Topcare, imported from America. Apparently they have never sold any the stocked them to try. now the poor owner might stock up and I would have left the island.

Bizarrely they are should quite a strong second line on day 21 not as strong as the control line. I was not expecting any line this late in the day.Maybe I did not ovulate? temp a bit scatty fertility friend still saying I am fertile.

Daily 4pm rendezvous with DP sounds fab. Good luck!

I don't know anything about temping - I was all geared up to buy my thermometer online before the dawdling swimmers diagnosis. (Got disappointed in four different pharmacies, all of which only sold digital ones).

Reni's not stopped by lately, but she's the temp queen I think who might be able to offer some tips/advice.

We must find Reni,

We must, we must.

She sounded a bit jaded recently, I hope she's alright. don't blame her, aren't we all

I bought this set from eBay see pic, item number 140398200285.
Also bought some of the conceive plus lubricant, can't hurt to nourish the old vaginal walls now can it rofl

Thanks for sharing bec - that's quite a kit there! Surely that's gotta work?!

Lol Really, Iam a bit mental when I commit myself to a task!
Iam on CD6, just finished AF, this is a really busy month for me all my 5 children's birthdays and my husband are in the 4 weeks from the 30th July - 3rd sept, gawd knows how I'll be able to squeeze in any Marvin Gaye time lol
Last month I said right every day come on do me now lol (as soon as the kids where in bed) by day 10 he literally ran out of steam hahaha
Gotta re-think that this month lol ????

5 children Bec, wow, do you really want a sixth?

Mind you my grandmother was one of 12, which I still can't get my head round. Poor great grandma!

Yeah most people think I'm a total nutter too really, but I absolutely worship my kids, they are my life and so is my husband too lol (not to forget him!)
Im a typical mother hen not only have I got mine running around I always have a house full of other people's kids, neighbours and my family's!
My kids are 15, 12, 8, 7 & 3, 3 boys and 2 girls and I think given a lottery win I'd have a dozen!! my hubby knows how mad Iam and we've agreed to have 1 more!
That's obviously if it happens, like I mentioned previously I had a coil fitted after my baby and had it removed after a year as it was having all kinds horrid affects on me and the doc had a bit of a mare getting it out, so now it's come to the time of 'the trying' Iam worried that it may have caused an issue.
Fingers crossed tho, gunna try hard and see what happens!
Did you have a chance to look into that stork conception aid I found?
Sounds really interesting x

Look what I got from a cheap ovulation test on CD22. Could I really be ovulating this late? Does it look positive?

Hope this is a better picture of the OPK CD22

Wow that's deffo a positive flourishing!
And it's quite late on to be getting that, you should be mid luteal phase by now, has this happened before?
Have you ever had a 36 day cycle? x

No never, I am always 28, it's weird. We fly back home tomorrow, we have Bd a lot this holiday, I will give Dp a night off, no doubt he will want some for breakfast tomorrow. We won't do it tomorrow night as we will be on a plane

Well I'm thinking that it may well be...

1. Late ovulation?
2. Possibly detecting the second estrogen surge and perhaps you missed the actual O?
3. Thirdly (but possibly) if you where to have missed the big O on maybe cycle day 15 let's say, then you could possibly be 7DPO, in which case an OPK although checking for LH could also detect HCG as they are basically the same thing other than a few added extras!! EEEK! I wonder?

Had to laff at him wanting it for brekky, wat is it with men and morning attacks lol
How many times have I been woken up being touched up rofl

Lol, of course he had me for breakfast,trouble is I have was desparate for a wee so probably drowned my swimmers????
I don't think it's Hcg that would be too good a story

Rofl my other half suggested I do a handstand after we did it, I was like 'what drugs are you using' lol
I haven't been able to do a handstand since I was like 12 haha
More chance of my getting pregs with triplets than lasting more than 5 seconds in a handstand, God knows the damage I'd cause one the dismount lolol

Hello all. You're being very athletic Xx . Have had a poor effort this month, only DTD days 10 and 11, though I got my positive OPK on day 11. Still, it's CD22, just about, now and I have started feeling cramps! The witch can't even let me fantasise about pregnancy for the last week. It'll be 7 days yet till I even get AF! Must book that doctor's appt. I worry it can't be right for cramps to start this long before AF.

Flourishing have said this before I think, but when I conceived DS it was definitely on either CD18 or CD21. We only did it those days that month. I'd been quite ill and think that had delayed ovulation. But it can happen. I was always on a 28 day cycle then too.

Well fridge on a positive note it could be implantation cramps!
I've had them with all of my pregnancys, feels like your going to wipe and see AF but you don't.
All this CD blah blah, life's just dragging man! I keep checking my FF to see if there's anything else I can add to make it look more juicy rofl
I've just lost all control of myself, I said I was going to start my OPK's on CD10 this month but I'm sooooooo terribly impatient I started on day 8!
Least I bought loads of those internet cheapies so I can pretty much test twice a day lol
Plus my Conceive + came the other day can't wait to try it see if it makes any difference.

CD26 and 4 DPO if the positive OPK on day 22 is to be relied on.I am really bored and frustrate because the two week wait for be the a 3 week wait for me. I am totally shaved out DP has been so spoilt.

Lets share ideas on how to get through this. fridge it's possibly implantation. some people feel it. I have had twings and twinges too but I am putting that down to a long hall flight back home.

XX I did an OPK test yesterday and it was negative.

Have you tried a cheeky preg test flourishing?
It seems like it's been an odd cycle, might be an odd lucky one!
I'm in CD12, OPK's still neg, and I switched to Farenheit thermometer this month and my temps were so erratic until the last 3 days they have levelled out.
I've been using that conceive plus so I can't check my CM, but this morning we had a bit of 'how's your father' and I put the lube in about 15-20 mins before hand, then did the deed! I don't usually like doing it in the morning as I tend to lose whatever's just been deposited lol
But I didn't today I think the lube has helped it stay in place rofl
Worth a try girls!
How have you been fridge, AF shown her ugly mug yet?
Bec x

Meant to ask where about is everyone from x

Xx you make laugh so much. I hate thinking of my swimmers drowning in the shower or knickers as is most morning. I have tried two cheeky tests but BFN however the witch is not here yet, CD29 so the positive OPK on the CD22 must be the correct.

I keep going for frequent wee breaks, cannot manager 4 hours the last week. Having trouble sleeping since holiday, maybe it's the time difference. DP hates preseed, it makes the whole thing rather slimey for us, but if it keeps the swimmers in...

Yeah it's deffo making a difference to the 'Spillage' the lube that is rofl
Use that link from eBay flourishing and buy them cheapie tests, that way you can test every single wee lol
Some folk swear by those cervical caps to help but knowing my luck it would get stuck and I'd be up A & E over it!

I'm CD14 OPK's still neg but ive noticed a teeny tiny test line beginning to appear in the last 3 so hopefully not long.
I O'd CD16 last month with a 13 LP, 29 day month.
I'm planning on doing it AM & PM from tomoz until after O, feeling optimistic, isn't it strange how quickly after O optimism turns in to scepticism! us poor woman are ruled by our downright unruly hormones :o#
