Flatwhite31 You are not old! I am 36!! Sorry to hear about your loss I had a mmc at my 12 week scan in my 1st pregnancy and it was the worst experience, be kind to yourself and good luck

PabloEscobarlo · 22/10/2017 21:16

I was meant to ovulate 2 days ago but my opks have been completely blank this month, now my temperature has risen and I’m really not sure what is going on!

Foreverretro · 22/10/2017 21:24

@PabloEscobarlo I’m almost certain that I’ve read you can ovulate but still not have a positive OPK, so your temperature rising could still mean you’ve ovulated.

PabloEscobarlo · 22/10/2017 21:38

Ooo thank you I’ll keep everything crossed

BlueeSpottyTiger · 22/10/2017 21:40

pablo you might have just had a really quick surge and missed it on the opk? X

peterpanwendy · 22/10/2017 21:55

@Sammyclaire22 I believe I am ovulating today so will be in the 2ww soon, AF due 05/11... already thinking about when I can test. So desperate for it to happen! X

MamOfFrankie · 22/10/2017 21:57

Hi wendy. My AF is due the 5th too! Also fairly certain I ovulated today - had twinging right-side pains on and off all day.

peterpanwendy · 22/10/2017 23:09

@MamOfFrankie me too! Exciting, hopefully we will see each other on the ‘July Babies’ thread :)

PabloEscobarlo · 23/10/2017 05:38

I’m hoping so @BlueeSpottyTiger. They normally build up though so faint-positive-faint. I’ve never had a completely blank one yet that’s all I’ve had for a week now. Who knows I won’t stress myself though

Flatwhite31 · 23/10/2017 08:12

@PabloEscobarlo I've never had a completely blank OPK either. I started this morning on cd 8, and this is what I got. Clearly negative, but the line isn't really faint.

Flatwhite31 · 23/10/2017 08:12

That photo makes it look more faint than it actually is.

Flatwhite31 · 23/10/2017 08:15

Thank you @Wineandchoccy. Sorry to hear about your experience. It's so hard. I HATE that I'm starting all over again . I should be nearly 21 weeks now. My MMC was 2 months ago today. This time 2 months ago we were on our way to the hospital, not knowing of the hell that lay ahead...
@PabloEscobarlo sorry I didn't read your post properly. I've read you can have a negative OPK but still ovulate. Fingers crossed. X

PabloEscobarlo · 23/10/2017 09:00

Thank you @Flatwhite31 I’m hoping so, they really look like they haven’t even been used

Smallpotatolove · 23/10/2017 09:13

Can I join you?
I have been off the pill for about six months but my cycles have been really messed up. I have been taking inositol to try and regulate them so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this month.
AF currently here so no plans to get busy until next weekend. I have ordered some opk sticks so fingers crossed I actually ov this month!
Ttc#3
Cycle ? Who knows!
CD5.
Good luck everyone!

pattiselmabouvier · 23/10/2017 09:44

Hi, may I join?
Im 27
TTC #2
Cycle #1
CD 19 but ovulated on CD 17

Nervous as I had a scar ectopic that ended in miscarriage back in June

Good luck everybody

SnoozyMcSnoozeFace · 23/10/2017 09:56

Welcome @Smallpotatolove! Hope everyone is getting on ok! Not totally sure when AF/BFP will be this month but I think I may have ovulated over the weekend so probably in the same boat as @MamOfFrankie and @peterpanwendy Smile When's everyone going to test?

SnoozyMcSnoozeFace · 23/10/2017 09:58

Welcome @pattiselmabouvier so sorry to hear about your experience Flowers

MamOfFrankie · 23/10/2017 10:00

Morning snoozy. I am going to wait until AF is late not four days before, like usual. You?

Fingerscrossedandfairydust · 23/10/2017 10:07

We got the results of our private fertility tests on Friday. Against all my suspicions, my fertility is 👌 but the shocker was DH has v low count and a v high number of abnormal/immature sperm. Doc told us to carry on trying for another 4-6months, but then we are looking at PICSI IVF. Am devastated but trying to put a brave face on as DH feels bad enough as it is. Going to keep going but all feels like it’s pointless. Lots of EWCM today on the bright side. Giving up temping and opks and only DTD every other day in fertile window to conserve the little guys.

Anyone else have male factor fertility issues?

CherryVicky29 · 23/10/2017 10:46

Think I also ovulated this weekend believe it’s my first correct cycle since stopping pill in August so got a good feeling about this month! I am going to try not to test till the 3rd nov when AF is due 🙂

heavenforbid · 23/10/2017 10:50

Can I join too please?

26
TTC#1
Cycle 1 (technically - although been off the pill since March and "not-not trying" since May. So cycle 5 of that, but first one of properly trying)
AF is here at the minute so next one will be due 20th November. Cycles all over the place from coming off the pill but last one was 26 days.

I'm a carrier of a genetic condition too so if/when (FC!) I get pregnant we'll have to be seen by genetic counsellors and have some extra tests. It can also present as reduced fertility and lots of chemical pregnancies so I could be hanging around here for a while :(

Sad to hear about those of you having problems Flowers
Good luck everybody!

Foreverretro · 23/10/2017 11:08

Best of luck to everyone ovulating around now!

AF is just coming to an end for me so I’m thinking I should start doing OPKs maybe Friday? That will be CD 10... it’s my first month with a proper cycle (I’m hoping!!) and I’ve never done them before so trying not to stress out about the whole thing! Will start checking my CM again tomorrow - I couldn’t face it while properly on, am far too squeamish (pathetic I know!! Confused)

SnoozyMcSnoozeFace · 23/10/2017 11:23

@MamOfFrankie same here Blush I'm not going to keep any tests in the house this time because I just know what will happen!!

It must be so frustrating @Fingerscrossedandfairydust - me and DP haven't looked into our fertility yet.

Owlpatrol · 23/10/2017 12:33

Well I deffo ovulated yesterday or today with my ovulation bleeding which I've never had before and ewcm today. That said we dtd Saturday and planning to again tonight. Good luck everyone this month xx

peterpanwendy · 23/10/2017 14:53

@MamOfFrankie @SnoozyMcSnoozeFace I am going to try to wait to test until November! AF due 5th so will use a FRER on the 1st. You?
