Other too tired to dtd tonight. As I can't be sure I ovulated this week wanted to keep at it to give us the best shot. Then he's working nights so won't see him much until middle of next week. Men! Angry

BambiOnIce80 · 13/09/2018 22:26

@CookieWaffle, I'm glad to see that there's no pretense about it being a discussion about which house to get 😂 I hope you win!x

Yep @mrsof20118, it can feel a bit like there's only one of us putting the effort into the TTC journey sometimes 😔 Is your DP the type who would like to know when the FW is or is he the opposite? It's so variable 🙄 Some guys embrace that information and others hate the pressure...

Congrats on the end of exams @ValidUser 🎉 Off to the West End or maybe the Harley for a drink? No idea if they both still exist mind 😄🥂

CookieWaffle · 13/09/2018 22:30

@BambiOnIce80 we tossed a coin. I lost. Obviously we're not counting that Grin

KatBeCool · 13/09/2018 22:56

@CookieWaffle if you're lucky, you may get a temperature dip just before ovulation, I did have one last month, it was pretty significant and noticeable. But most of the time it doesn't happen.

CookieWaffle · 13/09/2018 23:22

Sure @KatBeCool sometimes. I was more responding to Flap concerned about not seeing a rise. Doesn't usually rise til a day after opk bfp.

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 00:07

@KatBeCool @CookieWaffle I haven't Ov'd yet so wouldn't expect a rise but what is not normal is my temp is quite high already, normally it is down near 35.80 and it's at 36.30 - yet I had a positive opk this morn, I would expect more of a dip right now? Hmmm 🤷🏼‍♀️🧐

KatBeCool · 14/09/2018 03:24

@FlapJackered positive OPK can last anywhere from 6 to 48 hours, in extreme lows and highs. I usually get at least 24 hours of positive. So you have time before O :) According to everything I read, it happens 12-36 hours after your first test, granted you detected the surge right away.

Lougg · 14/09/2018 06:17

So it seems like I'm not going to get my magical moving day + BFP. I can feel AF is on her way and a BFN this morning. I just want her to come now so I can drink this weekend, I'm away with all my family so no idea how I would have kept it a secret anyway! Oh well I'm moving into my dream house today, the witch won't get me down 😀. And June babies are the best away 😉

Even though the last week of June and first week of July already includes DH's, Mum's, brother's, nephew's and cousin's birthdays and our wedding anniversary! Might as well throw a baby into the mix I clearly have a think for Cancerians!

Crossfitgirl · 14/09/2018 06:35

@lougg I agree, June babies are the best!
@flapjackered did you get to DTD on return of OH? My temps have all been higher than last month... all 35.8 ish then up to 36.4 ish after ov... now they are all around 36.2. I wondered if it's cos I'm on hol, but don't know how that would affect it!
@validuser good luck for your results in a few weeks, and... strange smells?? Are you in the 2ww?
@cookiewaffle exciting for house shopping! Have you guys decided?

I'm enjoying the final full day of holiday now, we've had many a chat about kids, agreed to have more sex, DH still not sure he wants to know about the FW but I did show him a chart with the %chance of conceiving which is still only 33% on day of of, and lower as you get further away. Hoping it's clicked now!
Feeling very positive about this cycle, so much more relaxed!

Cd6 today, and I plan on trying to get as near to SMEP as possible :-)
Bought new sexy underwear and everything!

Hope you are all well, also I can't remember who it is that gets their keys today (or could have been yesterday) but I hope moving day goes well and AF doesn't come!
Good luck to all those testing soon!

CookieWaffle · 14/09/2018 06:37

Ahh @Lougg boo on the AF but yay on the new house!! xxx

@Crossfitgirl I think we may put an offer in today!! xxx

CookieWaffle · 14/09/2018 06:38

Also just saw this on reddit and it made me giggle!

Finally this morning had a positive ‘O’ day22!! So late this month. But annoyed now, did so much baby dancing last week that this week it’s burnt us both out :( haven’t been at it for 3 days just drained us this month. Husbands gone to work so getting to it tonight & trmw. Want to kick myself sooooooooooo annoyed ahhhh Angry

ValidUser · 14/09/2018 06:55

@Crossfitgirl I'm 9dpo! Only month 2. It'd be too lucky. But a woman can dream!

MrsC87 · 14/09/2018 07:20

Happy House Moving Day @Lougg 🏡😊
I've woke up to AF on the way so I now realise I was a complete nutter thinking it was implantation bleeding 🤦‍♀️ here's to a glass of wine or 3 this weekend 🍷🍸
Rest and relax ready for the next months fw! 😘💕

MrsC87 · 14/09/2018 07:21

@Crossfitgirl glad to hear you are having a lovely holiday and you have been able to relax with dh! Here's to a great month of smep for you 😘

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 07:23

@Lougg Sorry to hear you this AF is on her way, you never know though! Congratulations on the house!

@GDOG35 There is still time! Get 🐎 😂

@Crossfitgirl so glad you've had a good, relaxing hol. That is great you're on the same page as DH too.

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 07:26

I am so confused right now. Positive IC yesterday but clearblue is still flashing today? Also temp has gone up to 36.40 which is way above cover line?!
I am meant to book my blood test for 5dpo but I am not sure I am going to know when I ov'd?!

Crossfitgirl · 14/09/2018 07:36

@flapjackered is there anything else could have caused the rise? If not, i would assume ov is today? As long as it stays up? Xx

Delilah7 · 14/09/2018 07:44

@Lougg happy moving day, the fun begins now! X

@FlapJackered you chart so good. Half wish I temp'd but I don't think I could stick to it. X

Morning ladies. Hope you're all ok xx

BambiOnIce80 · 14/09/2018 07:47

Sorry AF is here @Lougg and @MrsC87 💐 Good luck with moving day @Lougg 🏡

Definitely best of 3 @CookieWaffle 😉 Did you get your way? Hope you're offer is accepted.x

Glad you've had a chilled holiday @Crossfitgirl 🌞🍹Maybe your temp is higher because you're in a hot country?

How's the TWW gang doing? I can feel SSP clawing to get out and I'm only somewhere between 5 & 7dpo 😣

@Delilah7, is it CD14 for you? Keeping everything crossed for a BFP so the trial by OPK can end and stop wrecking your head 🤞🏻. Maybe burn the little buggers once you get your BFP?! 🔥

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 07:50

@Crossfitgirl no nothing I can think of that would have effected it. Urg this is frustrating as I know the doctors are going to get aggy if I book the blood test then change it.

@Delilah7 it's not a good chart, I am all over the place with temps and now it's going up without having dipped so it is not doing its job! 😂 How are you? Are you stuck taking your opks?

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 07:52

*still

Delilah7 · 14/09/2018 08:01

@BambiOnIce80 Yes Hun CD14. Was meant to ovulate apparently according to flo yesterday. I'm going to but I haven't had one yet might just bloody give up with them. It's doing my head in 😂😂 how're you darling? Xo

@FlapJackered see I've no idea about charting so ignore me 😂😂😂 do you use OPKS, I can't remember if you do. I'm ok, stressed out about no positive OPK yet, just doing my head in.

On the other hand I got laid this morning... 😂😂😂

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 08:50

@Delilah7 sorry you're still waiting for the illusive + opk. I am sure it is around the corner though if you're cd14.

FlapJackered · 14/09/2018 08:53

@Delilah7 Yes using both types of opk 😂

So my opk looks like it is positive this morning? I thought it was positive yesterday but I think this one is a bit darker?
So maybe I will get a temp dip and static smiley and ov tomorrow?
Do you think this is positive?
