Dd2 was conceived first try...I'm thinking it won't be so easy this time!

thosethreewords · 29/12/2018 12:57

@emcrave ovulation buddy!! Yes I had positive OPKs on sat and sun then temp confirmed O on Monday. So you are testing next Friday? I'm trying to hold out testing until Saturday.... although fertility friend is suggesting I wait a whole week after that 🤪

emcrave · 29/12/2018 13:16

Hahaha yes we are @thosethreewords

My app says to test a week today but I have a frer and with AF being due on the Friday I think thats when Ill test! Im not sure whats worse, a BFN or AF!

thosethreewords · 29/12/2018 13:19

@emcrave I've got some FRER coming on Friday (specifically didn't use amazon prime for these!) so I can't test earlier!!!

emcrave · 29/12/2018 14:48

You’ve got some will power @thosethreewords! I can hear the FRER calling me but I must be strong!!

HJWT · 29/12/2018 15:52

Has anyone ever tried one of these ava bracelets ? Apparently they are supposed to be really good for tracking ovulation! I was thinking of getting one, i don't want to go on any contraception after our next baby because it really messes with my body so thought id track my cycles instead but doing OPK's everyday would get pretty expensive to! Haha

WatchingTheWheels85 · 29/12/2018 15:56

@HJWT I'm looking at getting one myself hopefully someone will come on and tell us how great they are.

HJWT · 29/12/2018 16:09

@WatchingTheWheels85 i just read a great review on google a woman really struggling to get pregnant and under a doctor and now on medication and the bracelet realigned all of her cycle and it all matched up... not many reviews on it though other than that.

TrashKitten10 · 29/12/2018 16:20

@HJWT I've read really positive things about them but goodness they are expensive! I'd love one as I'm always up in the night for a wee and never reach the holy grail of recording my temperature at precisely the same time after precisely the same amount of unbroken sleep Grin I saw somebody on here saying that the new Fitbit monitors your temperature and could be used as an alternative but although their website talks about period and fertility tracking using the Fitbit, I don't think it actually records your body temperature. Shame as they are half the price :)

Kaye03 · 29/12/2018 16:30

So my first response preg test came today, was BFN. looked at packet, realised i ended up ordering rapid response test 🙈🤪
Have to wait for af now.

HJWT · 29/12/2018 16:36

@TrashKitten10 i think its worth investing in if your are going to use it long term and not just to get pregnant... i would never buy it just to get pregnant lol xx

HJWT · 29/12/2018 16:37

@Kaye03 that is so annoying!!

Peaky1 · 29/12/2018 16:54

@HJWT I ordered one second hand from eBay and should have it by tomorrow/Monday. I just realised that I was spending lots of dribs and drabs here and there on OPKs and the total really does add up. I'm giving it a go as I keep getting negative OPKs and struggling with the timings etc. At least I can sell on the bracelet afterwards quite easily - something I can't do with OPKs! 😆

Happy to tell all about it as I get to grips with it 🤔

HJWT · 29/12/2018 17:23

@Peaky1 oh defo let us know !!

HJWT · 30/12/2018 06:58

Has anyone used the Seven Seas 'trying for a baby' vitamins... I'm about to run out of the boots version which I used when I conceived DD and the only ones with good reviews on amazon are seven seas.... also anybody know if its illegal to shove pills down DH throat?? Since he keeps 'forgetting' to take his?? 😂

Age 30
Ttc #1
Cycle #3, mmc on cycle 1
Currently 3dpo. Ff days I can test on the 9th, but I may wait till the 12th, if I can manage it.

@TrashKitten10 I use the ifertracker, boots sell it. It automatically takes temp all night, I get really consistent temps and clear patterns with it. A lot cheaper than the Ava, but only does temp.

GemmaJen · 30/12/2018 07:22

@HJWT my DH is the same! He keeps forgetting, but when challenged he's full of excuses. I'm one step away from getting vitamin gummies, maybe he'd remember those.

TtcIAm · 30/12/2018 08:18

Just ordered some frer on Amazon for delivery on Thursday (they were prime but I'd use them) 😂

Temp dip yesterday and temp rise today I'm just happy that I actually ovulated this month and will hopefully have a natural period instead of an induced one if I don't get a bfp

Anyone else testing next Friday?

OP posts:
thosethreewords · 30/12/2018 08:50

@TtcIAm yes! I did the same thing! They are coming Friday so I can't test before then! (Although my room at work had pregnancy tests!!! I have no idea how sensitive they are though)
@HJWT my DH doesn't take them religiously. Or he does and says "now I've had my five a day". Not the way it works!

emcrave · 30/12/2018 12:32

@TtcIAm Im going to test on Friday (if I make it till then) AF due Saturday!

Ive just ran down the stairs and noticed my boobs are really sore (love a bit of symptom spotting) I do sometimes get this with PMS and Im not sure if Im overthinking things but they are more painful than normal!!!

Hangingtrousers · 30/12/2018 12:44

Have an ache in my left ovary area... Think could be ovulation which is actually due tomorrow according to may app. DH is feeling ill..... Better be feeling better by this evening!

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 12:52

I did a test this morning. Is the line on the left just where the test line is?

Jan Bus - new year, BFPs please
Hangingtrousers · 30/12/2018 13:03

Definitely a line Kaye!

ohsure · 30/12/2018 13:15

All the luck, everybody.
