Married now for 9years so yeah looking to start a lil family.
Currently 2dpo and wait is already horrendous and symptom spotting is in place 😂

lol @hopeful31 it will be worth it when you get a BFP!

Still faint lines on OPK this morning, when are you meant to get a positive? If i am estimated to Ov fri/sat and its meant to tell you 24-48 hours before surely it should be positive today?
confused! :/

hopeful31 · 07/02/2019 10:43

I should ovulate between Friday and Sunday. Just waiting on my opk confirming it.

Why don't u do another one afternoon/early evening and see if it changes xx

ImMeantToBeWorking · 07/02/2019 11:38

@Lammoshay AF due the 14th for me! Fingers crossed she won't come this month. Although we only got to DTD twice during my fertile window due to DP working away, so I am not too hopeful if I am honest.

Flo and Ovia are both totally different for me too.

Flo says I was fertile from the 24th Jan to 3rd Feb with Ov on the 30th.
Ovia says I was fertile from 28th Jan to 2nd Feb but it does not show Ov!

The only thing they agree on is that SF is coming the 14th of Feb.

Still haven't started temping, finding it so hard to get up in the morning at the min so I keep forgetting!

ImMeantToBeWorking · 07/02/2019 11:40

@hopeful31 picturing you with your legs in the air made me lol. My DP does mess and hold my legs in the air afterwards! I thought that was an old wives tale?

hopeful31 · 07/02/2019 12:13

@ImMeantToBeWorking I'm finding it hard to do my temp too. Still haven't got into the hang of it.
It was so funny because I lay upside down on the bed with my legs on the headboard lol. I hear a lot of mixed reviews about it. Some say that it does help get the sperm moving to where it should go. 2 friends have just fallen pregnant and they did it so I'm giving it a go to see lol

ImMeantToBeWorking · 07/02/2019 12:57

@hopeful31 Hopefully I will get into it over the next few days. Sure it can't hurt can it, anything is worth a shot! Hopefully it worse for you, then I will take holding my legs more seriously! Flowers

hopeful31 · 07/02/2019 16:44

@ImMeantToBeWorking u don't have long to wait now tho to see if u get ur bfp this month. One more week. I'm not due till the 24th. The ttw is getting harder each month. It really is all u can think about

Louise392 · 07/02/2019 18:35

Did a another opk today around 2.30 and same faint line, does look darker though.

My apps are the same @immeanttobeworking they say different dates, glad I've been dtd every other day since last af otherwise I may have missed the real fertile week.

hopeful31 · 07/02/2019 19:00

I just did another and I'm still high fertility but not peaked. Gona do that every day till I peak

hopeful31 · 07/02/2019 21:30

Aww @Lammoshay I know what you mean there are bfps everywhere on the other threads, surely we are due some soon :( x

Louise392 · 08/02/2019 07:59

@hopeful31 my opks are just strips so doesn't tell you high Low etc may try them next month if the witch gets me this month.

Loving the pics, so true! Lol

Louise392 · 08/02/2019 12:51

The first test was Wednesday the 2nd one was today, they go between being darker and lighter, had a lot of ewcm today so hoping it's on its way

Just had a look in my bedroom small bin (the things we do when ttc) and got all of the past days opks out and took a picture, do you think i have ovulated already? When looking at them all together there is at least one that looks really dark compared to the others? I am still getting ewcm and apps are saying i am high fertile now.

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 19:55

The 4th from the bottom looks dark enough that could be ovulation. Was the one u did today lighter ??

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 19:55

@Lammoshay how r u getting on

Louise392 · 08/02/2019 20:03

Yes they have been lighter today, have had lots of ewcm today and yesterday, we dtd Wednesday and will do again tonight. Thinking that lines up with possible ovulation tomorrow?

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 20:07

It could do. I'm not completely in the know about those ovulation sticks because as u know I'm using cb. But you seem to have covered all bases this month

Louise392 · 08/02/2019 20:19

Just going to make sure we dtd every night now for a few days to make sure we cover everything.
Glow app says I am high fertile today and ov on Sunday, having some major cramps and bloating so can't be far off now.

Do you feel like you are approaching ov @hopeful31?

Hey hopeful- no change here although today I had maybe 3 times where I felt nauseous it passed within 30 secs and maybe cause I was hungry.
Tested last night and bfn x

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 21:28

@Louise392 I'm the same, will be dtd every day for the next load of days. I had little twinges today, but I usually have cramps coming up to ovulation so maybe I'll ovulate closer to Sunday.

@Lammoshay it's still early if ur not due until the 13th . How's things with dh?

@hopeful yeah not to bad- I explained more about the window OV etc and he is getting his head around it- told him I’m gonna be a bitch on heat and he has said we will do the speed meets egg properly for 2 months and see if that works, if not we will just enjoy the ttc and not put any pressure on so that’s fair x
