Reinstating the gin deck from a previous bus for AF arrivals, and stocking up on pineapple juice and Brazil nuts, fx for lots of BFPs this month.

I'll fire up the laptop and see if I can work out how Grin Please excuse the yucky symptoms from when I was ill last week!

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 18:44

Here is this month's chart (if it works!)

Just lurking

Nymph, that is just awfulSad People like that shouldn't be working in the caring profession. I'm pleased you don't need any medical intervention and I hope before long you have your sticky bfp xx

A bit confused by your 3 days of positive opks. By positive the second line should be as dark or darker than the test line. It shouldn't really happen for 3 days in a row. The LH surge is very quick, not 3 days long.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 18:56

Here are my opks from the last few days. None of them are positive yet.

Kirjava, I won't test unless I have some good symptoms, I'm a reformed poas addict Grin When will you poas?

Pikz, hello, how are you?

Sorry forgot the name but yes, post your chart and we'll take a look.

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 18:59

The first day was a bit lighter but still dark, the next two were the same strength - as strong as I've ever seen one of my IC go anyway! The one the day after the last +ve was back to being very faint and the day after that not really there at all.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 19:03

Well I guess a opk is exactly that - a prediction. You did have a thermal thrift but not sustained. So maybe your body tried to ov but didn't. I would go with the Dtd plan and wait and see what your temps do next.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 19:04

*shift!!

RalucaMorena · 13/07/2015 19:12

Hi all! I have a weird month. I tested opk positive on Friday and Saturday and had ewcm. Sat I had a spike, yesterday a dip and today same temp as yesterday. Ff doesn't say anything about ov. We only dtd on sat due to dh cast. So did I miss this month?

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 19:17

I think you are right mummy, will just have to DTD and hope for the best. Here are my OPKs (old on left today's on right). Last week was stressful at work but I didn't imagine it could effect my ov like this! I ov'd on CD10 last month and so just assumed when they got darker and my temp rose that it had happened. Bugger and damnation - all my planning wasted! This cycle up the spout. Plus I'm away from DH next month. Pass the gin!

Thank you for your help mummy

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 19:19

Here are my OPKs - bastard cat just jumped on my shoulder and startled me into pressing send before finishing!

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 19:22

madame can't see the pic. That's ok, tried to help! You did so well with all the DTD too! Stress can really impact ov can't it. Funny bodies.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 19:23

See them now. Your old ones aren't positive. The entire line has to be the same and they are lighter. The first one on the right is your true positive.

spinningirl10 · 13/07/2015 19:28

Madame, I agree with Mummy, first on the right is your positive, can you dtd tonight? Stress can affect ov, looks like that's what has happened this cycle.

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 19:29

Really lucky that I did that extra one today - maybe we can catch the tail end of this egg!

It is staggering how much there is to know about fertility, 3 months in and I still learn something new almost daily. It is an absolute miracle that any of us are here at all.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 19:44

Very lucky you know your body's signs. In future, the whole line has to be even or darker, not just part of it Grin

Nomio230 · 13/07/2015 20:02

I agree with Mummy & Spinning. Today's is definitely the positive one. Send DH an emergency CoC text!

Nympho, I am so sorry you had bad news & that you were treated badly. There is no excuse for that nurse laughing, even if she was nervous. She is supposed to be a professional.

Hi lurker Pikz, nice to see you.

Dizzy, thanks for being sympathetic. I am sure I will find some enthusiasm again soon, but it is just so hard right now.

You will get there soon, I am sure of it. Don't give up. Smile

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 20:18

madame so ff knows what it's doing get rid of you non + results on your chart too

Rainy34 · 13/07/2015 20:19

Mummyofonesofar · 13/07/2015 20:28

rainy testing on my birthday! Grin

Nomio230 · 13/07/2015 20:47

Exciting, Rainy, but hopefully you won't need it!

MadameLeota · 13/07/2015 20:56

Good shout mummy will do. Sad to see my ov line go but hoping for a clear temp rise soon.

Exciting times rainy good luck with appointment but fx you won't need it!

Rainy34 · 13/07/2015 21:11

Mummy hope your birthday gives me some good luck!!,

If i do still need the appointment in August , i wonder if they will prescribe me with anything such as progesterone as it will be my first appointment and my progesterone was at 27 on day 21 and i spot 5 days before af is due , so i am pretty sure i have progesterone trouble, or make me have more tests?!! , I have had an internal scan and day 3 and 21 blood tests, ,
