Does any one use both ovia and fertility friend to track there cycles?

I've been using clue and ovia recently but the further into this two week wait I thought I'd give fertility friend ago. It had my estimated ovulation day totally different to the other two apps? I've put all my previous data in from my last 6 cycles. If I did ovulate when FF says I did then that would be great! As we dtd the day before. Where as on clue and ovia we did it 3 days before predicted ovulation.

I'm sorry to interject the chat.
Myself and husband are ttc baby no2. We're on month 4 just now and I can't remember what it was like when we tried previously.
I know it's a but tmi but...i think I ovulated about 5/6 days ago and we did try at this time. I've woke up this morning and had a lot of watery mucus. I'm sorry I know it's tmi. I'm wondering whether this is normal? Do the little swimmers take a while to come back down? Help..😀

I've missed loads on here! I just got AF again, so I'm out for my 2nd cycle of trying. I know it's only 2 cycles but I'm gutted. Really thought this month was going to be it.

Well, I am now officially overdue a visit from AF, but only by a day which is not unusual. I am 90% sure she will show up eventually but the agonising wait begins in earnest now. I am holding back from testing right now because I have a horrible sinking feeling I will be disappointed Sad.

Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you Kyoung

Kyoung1 · 07/07/2017 13:41

Thanks doodles.

Let us know how you get on.

Island35 · 07/07/2017 14:53

Doodles, I am with you on the disappointment. We are on TTC cycle 3 and I am the most impatient person ever!

Fingers crossed Thunderwing.

user1489659822 · 07/07/2017 15:13

8DPO according to FF for me and period is 3 days late, so count me in?

doodles13 · 07/07/2017 16:06

@island it seems silly because it's only month 2 but I have so many friends who have fallen pregnant the first month of trying. Onto cycle 3!!!

coastalchick · 08/07/2017 09:29

Im on cycle 1, in 2WW and not sure if we have hit it right. We had agreed we would start trying earlier this year so in March got the clearable dual OPK and started testing. 3 lots of tests (March, April, May) showed 4 HF days then 1PF. But then OH had a flid out (as we had just moved house and think he was a bit overwhelmed with everything) and we stopped trying and I stopped testing. Couple of weeks ago he said he was ready so I looked on Clue and started testing again with old stick. This time got 2 days of no fertility, 1 HF and 1 peak. We DTD on the HF and PF days (weds and thurs) and now on 2WW. Imagining all sorts of symptoms. Have had sharp pain in side (right) and been feeling sick and knackered and have had diarrhoea. I doubt v much I am pregnant as it's first go and I'm 39 end Sept but it's possible. Just worried we didn't DTD enough because I didn't think there was any point when I had a zero fertility reading (I also have eczema down there which make sex painful at times so have to sort of plan it to try and do as much as possible without it really hurting!!). So frustrating, keep googling symptoms and nothing can do - just have to wait!!!

Island35 · 08/07/2017 17:14

Hey Costal. Fingers crossed! I was a nightmare in our first cycle and Googled every symptom and twinge. If you can immerse yourself in other things I would. It helped me last month when AF appeared as I wasn't expecting too much. Helps to pass the time until you can test too. Having said that when my 2WW starts I will be trying to second guess things again, I am sure!

mito79 · 08/07/2017 22:37

I agree with Island ....do something else!!! Read, work, paint just do not think about it too much!!

Thunderwing · 08/07/2017 23:21

Still no sign of AF.... still think it's just a matter of time till she does though. Trying v hard to not think about it but it seems to be the only thing on my mind! Fingers crossed for coastal et al

Cakes140481 · 09/07/2017 00:41

Oh been busy on here ..... love seeing how everyone is supporting each other .... can not wait to see some pink lines 💋

fingers absolutely crossed for everyone. Finding it so bizarre that I never really understood the whole conception thing and all that goes with it until now (I mean obv I knew the basics from school) - the whole thing about how the egg makes it down the fallopian tube being helped by cillia and the burrowing into the uterus - that and the OPKs, temping, 2WW etc is all a whole new world!

It also sucks that you spend all your life trying NOT to get pregnant and then when you meet the man you love and you really want to, it transpires its not all that easy!!!

So I have been having sensitive nipples (hurting if something brushes against them), diarrhoea now constipation, exhausted, headaches but I'm convinced its my body playing tricks because of what I've read. I will be glad of work this week for once!!!!

mito79 · 09/07/2017 09:45

So nice to see all support girls ... keep fingers crossed for me im trying not to ovulate until I arrive home to my hubby ... all I need 3 days delay....🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

ally62442 · 09/07/2017 15:16

10 Dpo today and I just did another test, BFN! 👎🏻 it could still be too early for me to test I suppose. Plus my period isn't due until Wednesday. So wanting to have a caught a pesky egg! 🍳 I no I'm not out until AF arrives but a bfn always makes me disheartened. Especially as I'm doing nothing but read bfp stories on the tww website.

Carriecakes80 · 09/07/2017 18:54

Hi peeps,so I'm 36, mum of four and we're trying for Number 5! Have been for the past year, not been as easy this time, but then, definitely not in as good a shape as I was aged 18 with my first! Heres hoping its just taking a little longer! I have cut my hours down at the local school I work at as I also help teach my youngest two at home, but really hoping we can have our last babe. Won't moan if I can't because I am blessed...but me and husband are so broody, and the time just seems right, I guess time will tell! xx Good luck to all!! :-)

coastalchick · 10/07/2017 19:04

now convinced am not pregnant, just don't feel it!!!! But have had sore nipples, exhausted, diarrhoea, emotional and now a cough from nowhere. But i just don't feel pregnant. Can't do an early test until sun or mon. Never have I been so glad of work as a distraction! Away from thurs night - sun night with OH dad so thinking won't test until home. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I actually don't want to get pregnant until september in an ideal world as I don't qualify for contractual pay if baby due before mid-may 2018. But will also be gutted if am not pregnant this month. Wasn't really sure about having kids but now there is a possibility I might be I walk around with a little smile on my face and really want one!

Island35 · 10/07/2017 22:39

Ally, just seen your post here about different tracking apps. I'm the same and posted a new thread 'Confused'. Ovia and Babymed say different things. Ovulation stick is negative. So confused :/

Cakes140481 · 11/07/2017 22:30

Missed loads of posts here .... anyone seen perp?

I'm still here cakes. Just gone quite do and I have had a bad month so don't think it'll be my month to get a positive. I also found out a few days ago my best mate is pregnant which has thrown me a little.

Island35 · 12/07/2017 14:54

Perp - It seems I am surrounded by pregnant women! Every few weeks another declares they are 12 weeks gone :/

Hope you're ok!

Perpetualstateofchaos · 12/07/2017 16:15

Ye I'm ok being strong for her as it's come as a shock

mito79 · 12/07/2017 23:34

In the last two weeks 3 of my friends announced they pregnant...and 1 had a baby...feel like a looser..

BunsOfAnarchy · 13/07/2017 02:47

Joining the 2ww party. Currently on holiday in Thailand and my pack of FRER is burning a hole in my suitcase.
I'm around 5/6dpo so no point in even using my stash of amazon cheapie's that magically made it on holiday too...
Got major heartburn when I have a hot drink and to be honest haven't made a connection with that literally till I'm writing this....

Could be all the Thai food and heat and general foreign belly issues.....
