@Crossfitgirl was due on yesterday at 10dpo (usually only have a 9 day luteal phase) I wasn't going to test, I think I just wanted to cause it was a Sunday haha still don't believe it though and think AF will start at any point, I had (and still do slightly) strong AF cramps and no symptoms except white creamy cm around 8dpo that I've never had before

Thanks everyone for the congratulations, will keep you updated, will probs be spending half my day at work running to the loo to knicker check 😂

RanchoRelaxo · 24/09/2018 06:25

Sorry for AF @KatBeCool x

CookieWaffle · 24/09/2018 07:08

Just popped back for a quick check on everyone. @RanchoRelaxo omg I'm keeping my fingers crossed that's a nice sticky one for you!! xxx

Hope everyone is doing OK xx

Delilah7 · 24/09/2018 07:25

@KatBeCool sorry for AF Hun. She can be a bitch sometimes! :( xx

Glass of wine tonight @katbecool?
Well despite my positive OPK yesterday, my clearblue is still only flashing smiley today!!!

:-(

I thought we had nailed it, but if it's the same as last month where I seemed to have 2 LH surges, and got the solid smiley a couple of days after the positive OPK, then we will miss ov now as DH is away all week. Gonna keep testing with the OPKs.

Will try and DTD on Friday either way. Very confusing nevertheless!

Crossfitgirl · 24/09/2018 07:43

Hi @cookiewaffle! How are you getting on? Xx

CookieWaffle · 24/09/2018 07:50

Hey @Crossfitgirl, CD12 and I'm just patiently waiting for the big O at the moment. I 'think' i had a positive OPK yesterday, not for sure because I forgot to check it and checked it about an hr later and was positive. So checking tonight and will be jumping on him if a BFP!

On other news, house stuff is all fast moving and hopefully will be in before Christmas!

ValidUser · 24/09/2018 07:58

@Crossfitgirl it's confusing, isn't it?! I used the LH only clearblue last month and they were positive when my ordinary opks were negative.

FlapJackered · 24/09/2018 08:07

@KatBeCool if that is Af I am sorry lovely.

@Crossfitgirl that is frustrating with the flashing smiley. Are you still taking your bbt? Just keep an eye out for a rise just in case, as I never got my static this month but definitely ov'd as I got my rise in temp.
Hopefully it will go up and your timing was good.

@CrystalBlaze good luck at the midwife appointment, let us know how it goes! 🤰

@Delilah7 I am pretty sure I am not this time either, but there is always a flicker of hope!
I am itching to test anyway but I am going to be good and wait until Wednesday.

I have just got the usual AF symptoms. Cramps and sore boobs. Just waiting for that temp drop tomorrow or Wednesday. 👇🏻

Delilah7 · 24/09/2018 08:18

@FlapJackered I'm just trying not to think about it as I know I'll be out lol c

@CookieWaffle ooh that's exciting!! You'll be in your nice new home in time for your first Christmas there 💕 this will be our first Christmas in ours too I'm planning on going a bit OTT

Sorry @KatBeCool xx

So I did an OPK this morning with FMU and it wasn't as dark as the two yesterday but definitely darker than normal. May do some testing throughout the day? I did try a HPT but it's a cheap Poundland one. I could see a line where the line should've been but ever so faintly and there was no colour so I think it was an indentation line 🤷🏻‍♀️ considering going to boots to buy a FRER but then unsure if id be able to use it today or wait for FMU tomorrow? X

cupcakesandglitter · 24/09/2018 08:21

@FlapJackered how much does your temp drop by? Mine hasn't dropped yet I don't think x

@Delilah7 I'm not having that!! You've kept all of us positive so no way are you going to be all negative now! Chin up, you're not out until you're out xx

sunshine1987 · 24/09/2018 08:36

@cupcakesandglitter how many DPO are you? I now FRER are sensitive enough you don’t have to wait for FMU but you’d probably get a better line if you did on any of them x

sunshine1987 · 24/09/2018 08:38

@flapjackered that’s the worst bit about BBT isn’t it, when you wake up and your temp has dropped. Mine was lower today then yesterday so assume it’ll drop significantly tomorrow now before AF x

Delilah7 · 24/09/2018 08:38

@cupcakesandglitter thanks Hun just had enough xxx

FlapJackered · 24/09/2018 08:41

@cupcakesandglitter I thought you were testing with us on Wednesday!! 😂 You are meant to stop me from testing early! 😂
My temp normally drops to the coverline one day and then drops way below the day after and Af starts either day of first drop or sometimes second day.

FlapJackered · 24/09/2018 08:42

@sunshine1987 it sucks doesn't it. I do prefer it to getting a bfn though a bit of a softer blow.

cupcakesandglitter · 24/09/2018 09:45

@sunshine1987 If I ovulated on the 9th (I'm almost positive I did) then I'm 15dpo xx

@Delilah7 I know Hun, it's bloody frustrating. But we need to try and stay positive xx

@FlapJackered 😂 I couldn't help myself after my OPKs yesterday 😭 just ran to the loo because I was certain I'd started but absolutely nothing. Im not going to test again now - if AF doesn't show I'm still going to test with you guys on Wednesday 😊 I'm just getting pissed off now tbh 😂 I want AF to show so I can start again!! Xx

sunshine1987 · 24/09/2018 09:47

@cupcakesandglitter oooooo you’ll definetely get a good result now then on a FRER. Eek so excited for you xx

Delilah7 · 24/09/2018 09:54

@cupcakesandglitter GIRL WILL YIU JUST GO TEST ON A FRER!! I can't handle this suspense!!! It's so gonna be a BFP xx

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 24/09/2018 09:58

@sunshine1987 @Delilah7 omg 😭😭😭 okay fine I'll go buy one and keep you all updated. I've just been to the loo so I won't drink any water and I'll try hold my pee in for a couple of hours. Will keep you posted!!! Xx

FlapJackered · 24/09/2018 10:15

@cupcakesandglitter eeeeek🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I quite want to test now! There has been an internal monologue between my rational brain and my poas lunatic for the last 24 hours. It is not making working easy!
I might end up compromising between the two and poas tomorrow morning, I know I will regret it when it is a bfn though!

poodlepip · 24/09/2018 10:17

@RanchoRelaxo exciting! Congrats :-)
Good luck @cupcakesandglitter remember don't worry if it's not positive yet. Same for anyone that's testing It's got to be the right time for the perfect sticky bean for all of us 🙃

Delilah7 · 24/09/2018 10:32

@FlapJackered @cupcakesandglitter yay!!! We are here for you either way hun. Hold that pee girl!!! I want to test aswell now but I'll be waaaaay to early considering I have no idea when AFS due hahaha. Got some pulling feeling on my ovaries though!

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 24/09/2018 10:59

@FlapJackered that's exactly how I feel 😂😂

Thankyou @poodlepip @Delilah7 I've bought the pack of three FRERs. Still have that AF feeling as though it's coming so I'm gonna hold off today as long as I can!! Can't say Flo is optimistic 😂
