Hi, have been lurking - can I join? I'm 4/5 dpo, ttc #2. FRER said earliest test is Friday or Saturday. Constant cramps here but trying not to symptom spot too much as I'm only on cycle 1!

Cammy30 · 04/02/2018 15:16

I can definitely see a feint line @LilyLolo81 !! Congrats! Hopefully you gets darker one this week! Grin

sodababy2 · 04/02/2018 15:27

Congrats @LilyLolo81! How many DPO are you?

I'm 3DPO. Fertility Friend changed my ovulation day today to the day I thought it was which is good but on the other hand I would have been 5DPO if FF hadn't changed it! So my wait will seem even longer!

Wingingit321 · 04/02/2018 15:27

I see it lilylola

LilyLolo81 · 04/02/2018 15:32

I’m so glad other people can see it! I’m not sure how many dpo I am as I was about to start using opks this month, I think I’ve been ovulating late in my cycle so I might only be 10dpo. I’ll have a wee on a frer tomorrow morning and see what happens, I really don’t want to get too excited, I’ve been devistated the last few months when af has arrived and to be honest I feel like I would if she was on her way Confused xx

Secondtimelucky1980 · 04/02/2018 16:24

Hi Cammy - that's so strange that we are testing on the same day and are having the same symptoms! I also got some stabbing pain in my right side yesterday which in my previous pregnancies has happened around 7 days before my BFP and it is supposedly implantation pain. Fingers crossed for us both!

Lily I can see a line too! Yeah! Good luck for tomorrow's test!

rosieposies · 04/02/2018 16:36

Can I just ask what OPK's everyone is using? Amazon are doing 30 for a fiver which sounds good but no point in getting them if they're crap. Hopefully I wont need them but I want to be prepared x

colourful86 · 04/02/2018 17:49

@PassTheAfterEights finally got a positive opk today, 16 days after the MC... praying for this one

Hiya,

Wanting to join the Feb bus

Age 35
TTC#2
Cycle 2
CD9

Cycle 1 ended with a chemical pregnancy so needed a bit of extra suppport on this cycle so thought I'd jump on.

Hopehope20 · 04/02/2018 18:08

Thanks @Yukka. Got some brown spotting and really bad cramps today so not holding out much hope 😣

MissDollyMix · 04/02/2018 18:38

Bit of a mixed day for everyone. Really sorry to those whose AF has shown up. Next month will be the month!!
Is anyone using an ovulation tracker app? Any recommendations?
Also, I read the stuff about grapefruit juice and thought we could give that a try next month. I’m trying to cut out caffeine probably should give up the booze too. Are there any other little changes we could make to maximise fertility?

sophherts · 04/02/2018 18:48

@MissDollyMix I drank grapefruit juice from cd6 through to ovulation on cd13 then ate pineapple core for 5 day's after that. Got my bfp this month so no idea if it was down to that or not! My thought was that it can't hurt so I might as well try it

FingersXssd83 · 04/02/2018 19:03

I use the Clue app @MissDollyMix and its bang on when my period's due (usually between 26 and 27 day cycle) and I have all the symptoms when it predicts ovulation so I would definitely recommend it!

If this month isn't our month then I'm hitting the grapefruit juice and pineapple combo big time after you've BFP @sophherts

Owlpatrol · 04/02/2018 19:47

@sophherts I was a bit on the fence about grapefruit juice last month but you've convinced me to do it again thus month!

DreamyCat · 04/02/2018 20:13

@Hopehope20 Same boat over here  No cramps but otherwise the same and feel PMS moody.

Really hoped this month was the month!! Damn short luteal phase...

Congratulations @sophherts!

MissDollyMix · 04/02/2018 20:14

THis is great stuff! I have my list... grapefruit juice (after all this mumsnet choice I predict a run on the stuff from Ocado Grin) Clue app... anything else? I’m open to most things! To be fair I quite like grapefruits so that’s not too difficult.

MissDollyMix · 04/02/2018 20:15

Chat not choice! My phone is on its last legs! I’ve just ordered a new one. I do hope I’ll be able to take lots of lovely squidgy newborn pics with it one day...

sophherts · 04/02/2018 20:42

@DreamyCat thank you!

@Owlpatrol I have no idea if it contributed or it was the fact we timed dtd spot on but something worked! Fx for you! X

Hello! Hope I can join :)

Age: 26
TTC#1
Cycle 4

Haven't been using OPKs but might start next month...I've been using Flo to work out my ovulation date, not sure how accurate it is though - anyone else used it or have any other recommendations?

MiniMinions · 04/02/2018 21:14

@rosieposies I ordered the onestep opks yesterday from amazon after someone suggested those.

Right am gonna try grapefruit juice and get clue app (already use ovia, ff and flo🙈) so if I have another I must get it right right?!?! Last time around ovia and ff tallied up but thy are not in sync this time!

PassTheAfterEights · 05/02/2018 00:36

@colourful86 hooray!!!! 🤞🙏 sorry I missed this yesterday, hope you've had a glorious weekend of DTD, everything crossed for you (and equally happy for you it all looks back to normal!!) x x

Hope you're both hanging in there & getting some quality alone time @Westieandlittleboymama 😉

PassTheAfterEights · 05/02/2018 00:39

and welcome @Secondtimelucky1980 @TheUbercornMum @loulou82 @peaches1991 Smile

Westieandlittleboymama · 05/02/2018 00:50

Well that's my ovulation week finished according to glow. DH wasn't well most of the week so only managed DTD twice this week, has anyone had BFP with only DTD couple times during fertile week?

Penny31 · 05/02/2018 06:30

Stupid ic test has a tiny indent where test line would be, so if a turn at a certain angle I can convince myself there is a hint of a shadow. Pfft. Tomorrow is another day.

Good luck to everyone testing today!

Yukka · 05/02/2018 08:57

@hopehope20 how you getting on today hun? Xx
