Hey! I’m joining the TTC club (well have been since Feb last year!) have suffered 2 miscarriages since June and currently on day 3 of my cycle.

Praying we conceive this month with a successful pregnancy!
(TTC baby number 2, hoping for pregnancy number 4 which will be a success this time!) 🤞🏻

First month using opk. MMC in June and been trying since. Lost count of cycles. Conceive plus used too, regularly. Got a smiley face Thursday and Friday so fingers crossed.

First time using cb opks and I've got a few questions:
I didn't use fmu....have I now mucked it all up because my readings will be different?
Can you buy refills for the gadget or do you buy a whole pack again?
Cd7 here and I thought I ovulated on cd7 but a blank face today!

Omg!!! Congratulations!!!!!! When did you dtd?

justanotherday4 · 14/01/2018 08:11

Big congrats brownbear!! How many dpo were u when u got your bfp?

Amazing I haven’t used the cb ones before but I know the cheap strip tests I have recommend not to use fmu? So I think you should be fine! Also cd 7 would be quite early for ov?

Thanks girls doesn't seem real!!! I come of the pill November had withdrawal bleed,first proper period 18th December which i was shocked at. I did ov sticks from day 9 and got positive 30th December. We dtd 29,30,31 and 1st and got this positive test yesterday! So I'm 3 weeks 6 days xx

AmazingGrace16 · 14/01/2018 09:47

ahh congratulations :)
I'm confused with the cb opks. They say to use fmu and to start testing from cd7 based on my cycle length. Not convinced but we will see!

Mrsjones17 · 14/01/2018 09:52

@amazinggrace16 I have used CB digital OPK for a while. With these ones you are supposed to use FMU. The cheap ones from internet apparently not FMU but I have also used FMU with these and still gotten results. Be prepared for first CB result to be a negative and then a lot of flashing smileys before you get your static. I used the cheapie alongside CB until I got to know my cycle better. For example the earliest I have ever gotten positive is CD15 so now I don't start testing until CD 13 so save some sticks as they are expensive! I've not missed the surge yet. Keep the same holder when you run out of sticks too.

Peak for me! Fingers crossed for everyone!

@AmazingGrace16 I started using the cab digital ones last week after a miscarriage but I must have just missed it as AF arrived on Thursday. Getting back to testing next week though. My cycles are all over the place having had 2 miscarriages in the last 8 months so hoping these OPK will help speed things along!

mummyjl15 · 14/01/2018 15:08

Oops! Didn’t see there was a second page so replied to an old message. 🙈
I’m on day 4 , going to start my cb digital OPK day 7. Has anyone else used them after miscarriage? When did you ov?

Stee1 · 15/01/2018 15:49

I'm officially 2dpo by apps but had a bit of pain/cramps yesterday so could of been ovulation now for the 2ww 🤞

Ktn35 · 15/01/2018 18:52

Congratulations Brownbear! I am on 9po and am not supposed to be obsessing as we are not trying just not not trying if you know what I mean! However, I have become obsessed 😬 had a chemical last month and suddenly realised that I really did actually want it to happen. Feeling a bit periody today though 😔!!

mummyjl15 · 16/01/2018 13:56

I started my clearblue digital OPK this morning (day 6), negative. I’ve been having weird pains for 2 solid days now without any stopping, it’s almost like a nerve/twisting sensation in my lower right stomach and I’ve been spotting since my period stopped. That’s if it was a period as it was so much lighter and pink in colour rather than red. Wondering if it was perhaps implantation but it lasted 4 days. Has anyone else had implantation bleeding/cramps before?
Perhaps it was still part of my miscarriage from a couple of weeks ago though so I’ll continue with the OPK until I get that smiley face :)

Ktn35 · 16/01/2018 20:53

No I haven’t I’m afraid so can’t be much use to you. When’s your next period due? X

mummyjl15 · 17/01/2018 08:31

To be honest @Ktn35 I have no idea! I had a miscarriage at 4+4 weeks 2 days before Christmas and have had 2 lots of bleeding since then so I’m not entirely sure which was my period. I’m going by the last lot of bleeding I had which would make me day 7 today. I know my ovulation dates are all over the place since my first miscarriage in the summer, sometimes it’s day 7 sometimes not until day 20! It’s going to be an expensive month for OPK tests!

justanotherday4 · 17/01/2018 13:45

&mummyj15 I’m using opks at the minute too, all negative so far on CD 13.... trying to just dtd every other day but it’s easier said than done!

OP posts:
justanotherday4 · 17/01/2018 13:47

Ktn35 have u managed to avoid testing yet? I’m determined to wait at least 14 dpo this month (assuming ov occurs as no positive opk yet) but I’ll just see how long that lasts, can’t help myself!! Grin

Ktn35 · 17/01/2018 14:41

@justanotherday4
I haven’t tested at all and I am determined to wait until day 14 too but i’m losing my will power everyday! I have loads of weird aches and twinges this week but I seem to be incapable of differentiating them from AF pains! I’m sure I didn’t used to get thirst twinges before AF ... or did I???!!!!

Ktn35 · 17/01/2018 14:42

Woodchuck9 · 17/01/2018 15:07

Fingers crossed my 3rd cycle TTC my 1st and at was due yesterday and no sign of her 😆

AmazingGrace16 · 17/01/2018 16:34

Ovia keeps adjusting my fertile window and it's not making sense with the opks I'm doing. Three days of flashing smiles and ewcm is getting gloopier. Cd11 today and I think I might ov around cd11 or 12.

How soon after dtd is it ok to check ewcm?

Ktn35 · 17/01/2018 19:24

Help!!! 11dpo now ... should I test?? I have two frsp and very little will power 😬!!

mamabear05 · 17/01/2018 19:30

Hi guys I'll join too if that's ok. Currently 3dpo after early miscarriage (6 weeks) on 27th Dec. Really doubt it will happen for us straight away especially considering I've not really had a 'normal' AF yet but keeping everything crossed! Xx
