Looking for luvely ladies with long cycles who want to swap tips on how to shorten your cycle..doesnt matter how bonkers I ve tried it all !😘

Started opk testing and temping today. After no positive opks last month at all (although started testing late in cycle I think) I have two lines today. But test line not as dark. Does this mean approaching ovulation or missed it? I’m CD16 or a 40 ish say cycle. We DTD coincidentally this morning so hoping approaching ovulating rather than missed it!

@Lilsquish thanks hun x @Veganmedic depends on the make of opk some u need both lines to b the same darkness for a + but id say its a bit early for u to b ovulating most ppl have a luteal phase of about 14days 💜

How is everyone getting on?
@Aph413 have you finished this cycle yet?

I am on day 54, but think AF is on her way. I am going to test tomorrow anyway if she doesn't arrive today but I think it's unlikely this time.

@FlapJackered ur still in most ppl i know say the mnth they got bfp they had the least amount of symptoms ironically..i got a +opk on my clearblue this morning so oh is gettin pounced on as soon as hes in from work 😉

My chart makes no sense this mnth tho

That's good news @thisisouryrfx18 ! Lucky DH 😂
That is one active chart! mine is much the same before ovulation. Mine is reassuringly stable since ov which is nice, even if it ends up being a bfn.

This is mine

@FlapJackered lol ur temps r really up n down aswell but they do look gd after ovulation nice and high x..tmi but i feel like i need to spice things up a bit so oh doesnt feel i only want sex to get pregnant do u know what i mean?

I’m confused today. Temp low but opks not showing a second line at all now so don’t know if I did ovulate within last 48 hours. If so think chances this month slim as only dtd once around that time. Know what you mean about trying to spice things up-dp has a slightly wary look about him these days as if I’m always ready to pounce

@VeganMedic what type of opks r u using? Is it IC because mine say if its only one line then the test is void did u wait 4hrs before poas? I know they vary from test to test what the lines mean ❤

@VeganMedic post a pic of ur chart

Yes IC type but pic says one line means negative as does two lines unless test as dark or darker than control. Only been temping a few days so not much to show yet.

BFN this morning ☹️ and temp drop so onto the next cycle. I knew it was unlikely but doesn't make it feel any better.

Aw sorry flap :-(

How many dpo are you?

Thanks @Lilsquish
12dpo, expecting AF to show her ugly face imminently now I have had a temp drop.

How are things going with you?

@FlapJackered sorry hun x its the worst isnt it? u feel like ur back to square one everytime u get af or a temp drop just before it..its soo unfair❤ well oh got the paperwork for his SA yest and i have my bloods on thurs..his doc reckons we ll b referred to infertility clinic more than likely😕

Thanks @thisisouryrfx18 That's good in a way you will know exactly where you stand with it all and get the right treatment.

AF came yesterday, I am happy to be on to a fresh cycle now though. Wondering how @Aph413 Is getting on with inositol as really hoping that will shorten my cycle this time 🤞🏻

@FlapJackered yh but scared to hear what theyl say its becoming too real too fast..i sometimes wonder if adoption would b simpler

Well oh got his appt for SA 12th of july ages away!

Sorry about AF flapjackered. Fingers crossed for a short cycle this time. How many days was that one? Any shorter than normal?

Disappointing that ur OH test is still a couple weeks away thisis xx

@Lilsquish i know soo annoying i do realise realistically its only a couple of wks away but u know what its like when ur ttc wks seem like mnths uuughhh..im 4dpo atm where r u in ur cycle hun? X

Well my diet is a disaster soo far ive gained 2lbs!😂

Day 21 and iv just got a positive opk.

So if thats correct then this is one of my shorter cycles.

According to my app in not due to ovulate until day 30 x

@Lilsquish thats great shorter cycles always a gd thing eh?

@Lilsquish fx'd for a shorter cycle for you! Sounds promising!

My last cycle was 56 days 🙄 longest so far. I have got high hopes for this cycle being much shorter!

@thisisouryrfx18 my DH has his SA on the 5th - I am just a little concerned about the no sex 2-3 days before as it will be Sod's law I ovulate then!
At least you are in the tww and so he will have the results hopefully in time for your next cycle?
