I'm clearly getting more crazy as the months go on! So glad I'm back to using opks, got a positive today so should ovulate tomorrow (CD13) dtd last night and was upside down for ten minutes after, used conceive plus applicator and lube too, gonna dtd for the next three days with them too. Need to go buy a pineapple! Positive vibes all round!

italianwifey · 16/04/2018 12:20

Fingers crossed @DaisyMay25 !

Cakelaur · 16/04/2018 12:25

@italianwifey I'd possibly say you ovulated a day earlier. Either way nice clear temp shift. It's just a bit hard to tell with the odd missing temp. But nice and high. Looks great. Look out for dips between now and 12dpo for implantation or even higher temps from about 10dpo. They often result in bfp. But on the flip side I had the most weird chart that started looking good then suddenly plummeted and looked like I was totally out... then BFP!!

Cakelaur · 16/04/2018 12:25

Yes @DaisyMay25 I did all those things this month!! 🤞🏻

italianwifey · 16/04/2018 12:28

Thanks @Cakelaur ... I thought I maybe did a day earlier too - FF said it was earlier for a bit then changed it after a few more days. am going to try to not get my hopes up too much... my cervix is high but I have no clue where it was last month so doesn't really help haha!!

@DaisyMay25 I think I need to try the upside down thing, I do try and lie there a bit but I wasn't sure whether or not I needed to!

DaisyMay25 · 16/04/2018 12:30

@Cakelaur you avoided baths too though didn't you? I can't bring myself to do that!

@italianwifey it probably doesn't even make a difference but worth a shot haha

Cakelaur · 16/04/2018 12:43

I have avoided baths since Af last month. I treat myself to one bath, when AF arrives. I also (no idea if it did anything) started washing my hair every other day, so I generally had shorter showers. I usually stand in there for about half an hour, scolding hot!! Probably had nothing to do with it. But hey. Maybe worth a shot. I also drank a bottle of wine at 14dpo because I was convinced that I'd messed up my body with the progesterone cream and AF wouldn't show up and had a good cry. Then woke up to BFP! Talk about shocker!! Haha

thisisouryrfx18 · 16/04/2018 22:07

Good luck @DaisyMay25 i sit with a pillow under me after dtd everytime now lol

What is it in our minds that makes us addicted to buying tests? I've got 35 opks in the cupboard (had peak Friday so not doing them now) and about 15 hpts but keep thinking "I'll just get another pack". What is wrong with me! 😂

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 06:40

Well I'm back here, just got a BFN Sad

Cakelaur · 17/04/2018 06:57

@TwittleBee noooo!! I'm so sorry babe!! Sending massive hugs. When is AF due?? It could still be really early and the line may be coming and going a little.

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 06:58

Cakelaur I'm 10dpo AF due Friday. Really not hoped. Just myself a very strong coffee with the coffee machine as a treat seems I don't need to hold back on the caffeine

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 07:03

@Cakelaur I'll reply to you here from other thread otherwise too confusing haha. Yeah on a FRER

Cakelaur · 17/04/2018 07:37

@TwittleBee Well I'm hoping that AF doesn't show and that it's just a bit early. There was defo a line there. 🤞🏻tomorrow brings more joy! Xx

HidCat · 17/04/2018 08:24

Keeping everything crossed for you @TwittleBee.

italianwifey · 17/04/2018 08:40

Fingers crossed @TwittleBee maybe take another in a few days if no AF? Keeping everything crossed for you.

MumofBoysx2 · 17/04/2018 10:06

thisisouryrfx18 I would definitely check the packaging to make sure they don't warn against mixing vitamins with it but I was on the lot and I was fine! It is only cough medicine after all, which usually can be taken with anything (but do check!!)

TwittleBee · 17/04/2018 10:38

Thanks everyone. I'll take a test in Friday of AF is a No show. FX

thisisouryrfx18 · 17/04/2018 13:05

Haha @thisisouryrfx18 sorry about AF, I hate that! Bad enough as it is without having to put up with bleeding and pain and pms!! It will be over soon I'm sure!

I'm trying not to get excited because I had a sharp temp dip today... Its probably just the witch on her way but my mad head is telling me it could be implantation ..... then again could totally not! This TTC business does my head in, totally cannot concentrate at work!!

thisisouryrfx18 · 17/04/2018 16:49

@itailianwifey lol im the exact same im turning into a woman obsessed feel like its all I think about! Lol how long have u been ttc for? Af normally lasts bout a wk for me im on day3 but ive been guzzling raspberry leaf tea and oj non stop(heard it shortens af). The things we do.. 😂

DaisyMay25 · 17/04/2018 18:13

I'm thinking I got a positive opk yesterday, but today no signs of ovulation, (yesterday was CD12) they're starting to get lighter now. Any one else experienced this?

italianwifey · 17/04/2018 18:37

@DaisyMay25 that looks like a pos opk! What signs were u looking for? I don't really get any apart from my temps and a little twinge sometimes!

@thisisouryrfx18 only since Feb but it's driving me mad already... need to stop obsessing!! I don't know... I thought so but then been researching and everything is saying normal for preggo and non preggo charts!! Drat!

Have attached my chart, sorry for the TMI in the bit underneath I don't know how to remove it!
