But I thought the cbd tests were notoriously useless for picking up pregnancy early on?

AF hasn't started overnight so am still clinging to the hope of an implantation bleed but trying to be realistic about it - AF more likely

Hope all you girls are doing well and af doesn't arrive!!! I'm only 4dpo so just plodding along symptom spotting though knowing full well it's too early for any!! Lol

BasinHaircut · 15/04/2017 08:26

Cheers emma, hope the tww isn't too unbearable for you!!

I should be 7DPO today,but I'm not sure. I got a v. Positive OPK yesterday morning. (14th) DTD on 12th, is it too late to DTD today or have I missed it?

Hotpinkangel19 · 15/04/2017 09:04

Can you ovulate on CD 22?

So what's better to take hpt with fmu or smu as I've been taking them with fmu so if I need a wee at 4.30 I've been doing test then or if I need it at 3.30 I've been taking test then. I normally have a 2nd wee round about 8-10 depending on when I get up if kids are at school or not. Just been reading that smu can be stronger x

Hotpink- yes, you can ovulate at any time. Ovulation can be delayed sometimes, but the luteal phase (between ov and af) is generally quite fixed. Therefore if your period is late and your not pg, it might point to you having ovulated later than you thought.

Saz- it usually best to test after you've not urinated for 5-6 hours so that it's as concentrated as possible.

Hotpinkangel19 · 15/04/2017 10:32

@NetflixandBill thank you. X

I last had a wee at 12.05 last night then again at 4.30 this morning. Think I'm gonna start using smu xx

Emma2803 · 15/04/2017 12:52

Tww is ok so far. Had some wee cramps earlier today very

BasinHaircut · 15/04/2017 14:06

saz maybe just don't test at all for a few days until levels rise if you are pg.

I put a pad on this morning and it has a little bit more brown on it now. No AF as yet, so could still be implantation bleed. I'm 10 dpo today.

emma are you full force symptom spotting or trying not to think about it?

Emma2803 · 15/04/2017 14:20

basin I'm really trying not to symptom spot. I just noticed that cramp today and it was so low down, definitely in my womb, it's away now.
I also noticed there was a really strong alcohol smell of my vanilla essence when I was baking last night and I haven't noticed it before.
I know it's way too early for any symptoms but it's hard to stop from thinking it!! Lol.

I'm also keeping an eye on my heart rate with my fitbit as I've read your heart rate can indicate ovulation and pregnancy.

You are at just the right stage for implantation to occur so fx that is what's happening!

@BasinHaircut has she arrived early ? Xx

BasinHaircut · 15/04/2017 18:06

Yeah a couple days. It's cd27 and I would expect 29-31 going on my usual no-pill cycle. But I'm just off of the pill for a month so it's not surprising that it's not spot on, but 27 days is ok and at least I haven't had to wait months and months for a period.

Well starting again from today cd1, just ordered some more opks.
